Tho OREGON STATESMAN, Solent, Oregon. Wednesday Morning. February 21. 1945 PAGE TEN Insurance, Optician Bills Beaten By Isabel Chllds , i City Editor. The Statesman Debate and defeat featured Tuesday in the senate as the up per " house "washed but" a bill which would have permitted the Idaho Mutual Benefit association Xo operate in Oregon and another under which opticians would have been licensed. ' - Three hours of discussion pre ceded the 18-13 vote by which the report on SB 135 of the minority of the insurance committee (a "do not pass" report) was adopted. Sen. Paul Patterson of Washing ton county and Sen. Lew Wallace, Multnomah county, comprised the minority, arguing that the type of insurance which the law change would permit is now, has been and will be undesirable. Old line insurance companies have fenced in. Oregon and now keep its residents buying insur ance at rates established in 1868, Rex Ellis, the committee's chair man contended as he urged adop tion of the majority report Specifically, the bill would have permitted "mutual benefit asso ciations" to write policies in Ore con on, an experience rating ba st (with reserves equal -to the amount of . the previous year's mortality costs! instead of undeaj the American plan of mortality prescribed in the law now. Voting in favor of the minor ity report, and therefore against the passage or tne measure, were Sens. Carson, Chessman, Cornett, Fatland, Gibson, Hilton, Moser, Paul Patterson, Rand, Stadelman, Walker, Wallace, Walsh, Winslow, Zurcher and President Howard Belton, Sen. Lee Patterson was "absent. Not much more than one hour was given to the opticians' licens . ing measure, which opponents declared has the support of only one optician in the state and would prohibit men now serving as opticians in the armed forces from entering that business upon their return home without five years of apprenticeship. The bill would establish another practicj ally purpose-less commission, they contended. . Sen. Coe A. McKenna, Multno mah county," father of the meas ure, maintained that it ould prol tect unsuspecting persons fronk fraudulent promises o.the "sales!-' men" in the optical manufacturf ing business, that many wearers of spectacles today would be betl ter off without them but thai they were "sold" on the necessity of eye-glasses. Snell Wants Alien Land I Law Changes . Aliens could no longer purchase property leases in the names of civilian members of their families as a method of circumventing the alien property law under a bill to be introduced shortly in the Ore gon legislature. The bill, which would also change certain procedures, Is de signed to bring the state's law on the matter up-to-date prior to the return of many of the Japanese to the coastal area, Gov. Earl Snell indicated Tuesday as he recom mended its passage. It coincides with comparatively new provi sions of the California code upon which the Oregon alien property provisions were originally mod eled, i I Presenting the proposed meas ure Govt Snell released the fol lowing statement: j "This whole question of alien property rights is very much in volved in the provisions of the United States constitution and treaties with foreign- countries as well as the provisions of our own state constitution, ,-t' "Shortly after the army issued the order permitting certain Jap anese to return to the west coast, I requested the attorney general . to review for my information and guidance all laws bearing on the , question. His suggestions are in corporated in the bill which is be ing presented and which will strengthen our present alien prop erty law and bring about uniform ity in such laws with the state -constitution. "It is manifestly clear that all activity and procedure must be In keeping with the constitution and laws of our state and nation. ; All citizens agree, I am sure, that law arid order must prevail."

Bible Projects To Be Separate Starting in Fall Separation of the Union Daily Vacation Bible school and the Bi ble in the School projects was de cided upon by Salem Ministerial association at its meeting Tuesday morning.
