THE ETJGENE BEGISTEB-OUABD Pag5 Ttwr AGIST BUS BILL SALEM, June 20 VP) Suit asking that the bus and truck law be declared invalid wal filed in the Marlon county circuit court todaj t7 A. 0 Ander son, president of the- Truck Owner and Farmers' Protective association. A temporary restraining order to prevont operation of the law while the issue is pending was also asked. Chas, M. Thomas, public utilities commls. ' eloner, is made defendant in the' act- Ion. This and other legal hurdles placed In the path of the new act were con' sidered here aa efforts to devoid and force Governor Julius L. Meier to call a special session of the legislature to modify the law. Anderson alleges specifically that he and thousands of other anywbere-for-hire truck owners will be forced out of business by the provisions of the new law, scheduled to become operative July 1; that the act, without his consent, compels him to become a common carrier and submits him to unlawful and unreasonable regula tions. A auit to enjoin Utilities Commts' tioner Charles M. Thomas from put' ting the new motor transportation law Into effect was filed here last week by the Northwest Association of High way ifUuirHciurn. , E STORY CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE of Lane ' county, called the meeting - to order. For a gavel she used an old Sioux Indian war club Mr. Young obtained from Buffalo Bill. Lester 0 Hulin, son of one of Eugene's first pioneers, called the group together for some singing, led by Paul- Chris ten. Mr. Hulin played an old-time .organ for the accompaniment. . Daring the afternoon, the associa tion payed its respects to the mem ory; of George Mclvin Miller, honored Lane county pioneer and a past president of the county a historical iociety and pioneers gTOup, who died this spring. Mr. Miller never missed - a pioneer gathering during his life time. Mr. Hulin gave a short eulogy for Mr. Miller at Tuesday's gather ing and read a short history of Mr. .Miller. L. L. Bay, Eugene attorney, was 'the , speaker for the program. "The New Trail" was the topic of his ad dress. He described the pioneer as a man of honesty and fair dealing, a man of good character and clean moral, standards, a man who was at peace with his neighbors, who had thoughtfulness and mercy toward the unfortunate. "The machine' age has abolished the frontier, it has wrought a new order of things, an order in which our material Wants are administered total different Way, and in which many of our fundamental ideals in reference to government, economics, and the right to Individual action are undergoing a change . . We are con fronted by a situation and ' not a theory. Corporate wealth and the machine are absolutely Indispensable to our present social organization and there is no possibility of turning backward. We must go forward. We can not go forward without some modifications of onr previous gen erally accepted Ideas. We are facing a new era in American life, an era ' which will bring either greater happi ness or greater dispalr in accordance with the Intelligence and ability with which we face and handle its new problems. We are traveling a new road even aa the pioneers travelled a new road into a new and unknown land. The Oregon pioneer did not give up and retrace his steps when he met difficulties and dangers but coursgeously forded his way on through. We, like them, must make an earnest and coursgeous effort to adjust our Uvea to the new condi tions under which we are destined to live . We will not retrsce our steps, but will follow the now troll, all the way through, straight Into the sunset, even as they." Mr. Bay point ed ' out that our conditions today were prompted by the unrestrained Individualism at work whilo we were developing a new continent and build ing up our means of production, the unrestrained individualism creating ft aurplus of usable goods as Industry and civilisation spread. There Is need today of a planned economic order, he snld. Flowers were to be presented later in the afternoon to tho oldest pioneer present, to the oldest nstive son of Lane county, and to the oldest native daughter. The chief topic of conversation (aside from sales tax, the problem of property tax and what have you) was "When did you come to Oregon or Lane county." Among the pioneers gatherrd ' at the meeting were the following: F. M.

Around this pond are ce ment atonea in which are imprints of nloneer relics. Then they visited Mr. Young's study which Is aso a pioneer rellca room.

STORY CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE Warburg, who is advising the Ameri cana in technical matters, was grant ed the courtesy of spesking from the floor although he Is not a member of the committee. It waa Mr. Warburg who told the committee bluntly that America would not accept the gold standard again until certain that It was workable. Britain Backs U. S. Mr. Warburg'a declaration pre sumably waa drawn out by the fact that France and other gold bloc na tlons had immediately pounced on one clause of the Plttman resolution ss giving them a chance to further their drive to force America to re vert to the gold atandard and to eta blllze exchange. This ia clause two, Which provides "that gold should be re-established as the international measure of ex change values." Viscount Hailsbam of Great Brit aina government which takes an at titude aimilar to that of America re garding the return to gold Interven ed and asked that this clause be amended to leave it to each country to determine "time and parity" in con nection with going back to gold. Six countries -Germany, Italy, In dia, China, Mexico and the Irish Free state tendered full adherence to the Plttman resolution, while numerous others. Including Britain, Brazil, Czechoslovakia, Portugal and Uru guay, agreed on the broad principles. France, through Jean V. Parmen tier, expressed entire accord with the part of the resolution calling for stn blllty in the international monetary field and with the clause providing for re-establlshment of glod. inerimlnstlng evidence he possesses which will literally throw a bomb shell into the administration. An inno cent bell boy, on the scene at the time of the crime Is "framed" for the murder. Eric Linden, Sidney Fox, Tulyy Marshall, Louis C'alhern and Mayo Methot bead the cast.

If thev are built at all, will be toll-free in as much ns tho federal bureau turned down the proposition for the state to pay for them out ol tolls. Tho proposition now being put forward is for the state to pay lor the federnl loon from the money ap propriated for the operation of the five ferries now in use. t , While the status of the five coast bridges remained in doubt, the status of the proposed ra-touting of the Pacific highway betwoen Junction City nnd Goshen also was uncertain Tues day with the rumor that residents of the Santa Clara section were plan ning on organized protest of the move. Basing their contention on the fact that there are thousands of dollars invested in the district which would be threatened if the highway is re routed, it was said that the Santa Clara people planned to hold a meet ing soon to discuss what atepa might be taken. The federal government hoa re- queoted the re-routing of the highway on account of flood danger between Junction and Goshen. The high wa ter covers the highway each year, hampering traffic and causing damage to the highway itself. A survey is now under way to de termine a new route which ia expected to follow the Oregon Electric line into Eugene, avoiding five railroad cross ings between Junction and Goshen and placing the highway at a level above high water. Highway officials have pointed out that the present highway would not be abandoned, but would be maintain ed for use of those who needed it Weather Halts Mattern Search Skilled Labor For Sawmills and Camps Is Reported Scarce ' j , Skilled lobor for the sawmills and logging camps that hove : recently started operations and for those that sre about to resume la scarce and hard to find, it was stated by Frank L. Armitage,. superintendent of the United States employment office in Eugene, Tuesday. Common labor is plentiful but the men who were for merly employed at the skilled jobs in the mills and woods seem to have scattered pretty well or have other employment i The labor situation at the present time is much better than it has been for some time past, Mr. Armitage said. A few men are being employed at early hay harvesting but the demand for such labor Is not extensive. Clover and alfalfa are being cut on some farms. The hay crops as n rule will be short on account of much of the foil sown veotch and oats being frozen out last winter.
