of less than $500. The house rec
ommended 6 per cent.
Sen. Earl Newbry, Medford, ex

gus Gibson, Junction City, op

Salem, Ore!, March 16 UP) In
the words of the bobby soxers:
"Things are tough all over."
And the bobby soxer of the Ore
gon legislature agree although
they wear the abbreviated and col
orful socks for utility.
The senate page girls have de
cided that dashing here and there
on their many errands is too
rough on hard-to-get hose, engen
dering snags, runners and other
infirmities that hose are heir to.
So they have made a pact to wear
only bobby sox.
The house pages wear nothing
else (In the way of stockings, of
course).
As the last days of the session
come to a close, and calendars
mount in length, more and more
demand is made for night ses
sions, particularly from members
of the house.
Some of them refer to the sen
ate as the "old men" anyway, and
their refusal to work at night
makes the lower assembly, which

have been only a very few night
committee meetings und hearings
this session, also.)
But the fact is that the senate
refuses to hold night sessions.
Some of the members are on a
restricted regime, to guard their
health. Sen. William Strayer, for
instance, 79 years of age, under

county, is 80, Sen. C. H. Zurcher

Dr. Joel Booth is 73, W. E. Burke
is 79, while a number of other
senators are well over the 60-year

(Therb are only four senators
under 45 years of age. Chronologi
cally, they are Walter J. Pearson,
41, William Walsh, 42, and Paul

44.)
Two adjournment resolutions
have been submitted to the legis

both aimed at getting the senate
to move faster.
The latest was adopted by the
house on Wednesday and sent to
committee by the senate.

Spokane Opposes
Valley Authority
Spokane, Wash., March 16
Acting on a joint recommendation
of the Spokane chamber of com
merce's national legislation com
mittee and its Columbia basin
committee, the board of trustees
of the Spokane chamber last week
unanimously went on record as
opposed to senate bill 460 which
would establish a Columbia valley
authority.
This C. V. A. would take over
the development of reclamation,
agriculture, water power, naviga
tion, forestry, mining, recreation
al and other resources for the
entire Columbia river basin, in
cluding the states of Oregon,
Washington, Idaho and w.estern
Montana.
The Columbia basin project
would Immediately be transferred
from the reclamation bureau to
the Columbia river authority.
The Spokane chamber expres
sed the belief that the creation
of such an authority would delay
the Columbia basin project.

Two Children Die
In Seattle Home
Seattle, March 16 dpi Two Se
attle children, left alone In their
home, were killed early today
when they turned on four gas jets
while having a midnight snack.
The victims of the tragedy were
Walter, 2, and William, 19
months, sons of Mr. and Mrs. G.
A. Deems.
Deems, a merchant seaman, and
his wife told police they had de
cided to go out for some Chinese
food about midnight. The children
were left asleep In bed.
When the couple returned an
hour and a half later, they dis
covered the pajama-clad bodies of
the youngsters on the kitchen
floor. The gas jets on the stove
were turned on in full force.
Police believed the children had
sneaked out of bed for a feast, as
cake crumbs and sugar were
found on the floor. Apparently
associating food with cooking, the
pair turned on the gas and re
sumed their playing.
An inhalator squad from the
i fire department worked in vain
over the bodies.
