. Sen. W. E. Burke, Yamhill coun

7 reason that It would prevent
"speed traps."
"Where is the element of safety
In this measure?" Senator F. M.
FranciscoTich inquired. "Instead
of lowering the speed limit you
are increasing the basic speed re
striction five miles an hour. You

tation fire miles on highways

the eoagested metropolitan areas."

Argument In favor of the bill
was led off by Rep. W. H. Miller
(D-Grants Pass). "Cities have
contributed 183.000,000 to the
itate highway fund. . . and we're
demanding that the highway de
partment turn back to the cities
$750,000 that Justly belongs to
them." Miller asserted.
Discuss Fand Statms
Speaker E. R. Fatland left the
rostrum to engage In debate on
this bill, declaring that "the high
way commission Is in no position
to spend further funds On city
streets." Rep. Frank Hilton (R-
Portland) had declared that the
highway commission was 18
months behind In matching feder
al funds, which Rep. Hector Mac
Pherson (R-Albany) retorted was
not a serious situation because
the state has 2 years to match
federal money.

Supreme

murder or in cases where persons
have twice been . convicted of a
felony, without the approval of a
majority of the members of the
state supreme court.
The bin provides for elimina
tion of the lethal gas chamber
which was substituted for hang
ing at the 1937 legislative session.
All three were introduced by Sen.
Ashby Dickson.
A divided report will be tiled
in connection with the bill to re
peal the state bakery board law.
