Arguments Filed Against Annuity "Citizens Retirement Bill" Passage Is Seen as Detrimental Argument for publication In the measures' pamphlet opposing the so-called "Citizens Retirement An nuity bill," was filed in the state department here late Wednesday by the Oregon Business and Inves tors, Inc. The "retirement annuity bill" would levy a two per cent gross transaction tax, the proceeds of which would be used for the pay ment ot old age pensions. Arguments Listed The negative argument alleged that approval of this bill would penalize producers, vacate build ings, increase prices, drive ,cus tlmers to purchase outside ot Ore gon, raise the cost of lumber pro duction, create , more unemploy ment, and turn loose an army of state employes to pry into the af fairs of those who receive the pen sion to see that the money was spent. The measures pamphlet will be printed prior to the November election. ' Thrilling Record . Breaking Crowds r ' s ' - i ' !' I ' " ' ' " ' Sprague Views Royalty's Visit Salem Traveler in Paris "When France Welcomed England's Rulers By WALLACE SPRAGUE . Luxumberg, July 24, 1938. Without doubt X should begin this letter with' a description of the week's most colorful event the coming of the king of Eng land to Paris for a four-day stay. At the outset the city was be decked from one end to another with French, and English flags entwined. In the Place de , la Concorde there were great repli cas of the English royal and the French republican- coats of arms. Down the Champs-Elysees were many more flags, and at the Grand Point' the fountains were flanked by tall pyramids made of mirrors- which reflected, flags as well as the' leaping water in the fountains. Along the BlyBees, where the people could see the king and queen when they en tered Paris," ; guard rails were built along the walks under the trees to keep the crowds back.: The great day came on Tues day, June 19. Six of us, all Americans, went to the -Champs-Elysees station about an hour be fore the procession was to ar rive. We ot course found the sidewalks parked with people, but not too crowded for us to walk on south toward the Arche de Triomphe. Guards Are Everywhere - The king was due at the Care Eois da Boulogne at 4 o'clock, and was to pass down the street Immediately afterward. It was indeed about that time when the troop a represents, tires of all regiments formed in a solid row the length of the street, and backed up by severe looking guards in black helmets suddenly sprang to attention. First came a few motorcycle policemen strangely alone in the wide empty thoroughfare; not long after them came a single car with, a major-domo ot aome sort. Next came a Spahl band followed by two squadrons of magnificent Arab cavalry. Then came the mounted Dragoons who formed the body-guard . for the royal car. They came galloping down the street at the double, their polished black helmets blazing In the sun and. their black plumes streaming behind. In their midst was the kind's car, sur rounded as It was by cavalry, and moving at a g o o d speed. Few people saw much of George VI or of the queen who followed in an other car. Glimpses Queen's Hat I, being several inches taller than the average Frenchman, was able to see over the crowd enough to catch a brief glimpse of the king's face under a field mar shal's hat as he passed by. Paul did not see the king, but did see the queen's face while I saw only her white hat. It was all over in five or six minutes except to watch the troops form and ride away. 1 That same evening we waited reM artrTil TODAY AXD SATURDAY Continuous Sat. 2 to 11 p. m. Two Smash' Hits , Geo.

Since then we have cycled east tor two days and ridden on the train for one.
