'- Delinquent real property taxes of 1930 and prior years will be permitted no waiver of interest after August 15, 1944, under' the amended law, but 1935 taxes, are, under that statute, included with those of 1934 and prior years, and made subject to waiver of inter est.

Scott, state treasurer, told Salem Rotarians at their luncheon Wed nesday. ;The provisional govern ment was established, he declared, In 1843 at the two! Champoeg meetings, May 2 and Jury 5. Taking for his topic "Torturing History, or a v Plague on Two Houses," Scott said it was not true that the Champoeg decision "saved Oregon for the United States, nor was it on the other hand true that a provisional government had been established in 184L In mat earlier yearhe said, what hap pened was that the Methodist missionary party arranged through "committee action.? for the pro bating of Swing Young's estate. The-speaker quoted from an un published document, tha 1844 re port of the provisional Jtovern ment's legislative committee to the legislature, a reference to the decision "last year? to establish a form of government. He quoted several authorities' to the effect mat no government . existed in 1842. '. As f or the story of Joe Meek's dramatic call for a "divide" at the May . 2, 1843, meeting, Scott said it may have : been literally true but certainly was "allegorically true : since there was . disagree ment between the American and Canadian settlers and the Ameri cans won out. The Champoeg. centennial's "pedigree" is clearer than that of the Old Oregon Trail, for the trail had been - traversed as : early as 1812 and the great migration of 1843 followed a . "beaten path,1 Scott observed. The speaker was introduced by Charles A. Sprague. Music week recognition arranged by. Miss Ruth Bedford included violin numbers by Geraldine Schmoker and songs by a 'girls' sextette from the Epis copal church-junior choir, -r Pledges Honorary GRAND ISLAND Mary Wiley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Worth Wiley, was pledged last week to the Phi Kappa Phi national all school - scholastic at the Oregon State college In Corvallis.
