Culling upon congress not to
pass the migratory bird refuge
measure now pending, a houie
joint memorial resolution to the
federal lawmakers is scheduled for
introduction in the house Tuesday
afternoon by lvimwood, Multnc
mati. One of the principal pre
visions of the bill is that an an
nual hunting license fee shall be
levied by the federal government
on all portions hunting migratory

out that enactment of the mea

similar state measures already in

languages. Senator Joseph, to
whose committee on foreign rela

Inauguration of a program of
stronger legislative support ot the
Oregon Normal school, and the
extension of the normal system to
Include other schools when the
present institution has been
placed on a firm basis will be the
recommendation of Senator Bruce
Dennis, who today announced that
he is working upon a bill to in
crease the financial support of the
present school and lay the founda
tion for a comprehensive normal
school policy on the part of the
state.
1 'Oregon has been criminally
negligent In the matter ot normal
schools," said Senator Dennis,
ana it is nigh time we were
recognizing In a substantial way
the need for better and more
schools of this kind. There is yet
a large percentage of people in
the rural sections and smaller
towns ot Oregon who do not have
the opportunity of continuing
their education on through col
leges and universities. Their
education Is received through the
common schools and the high
schools, and it is our duty to pro
vide suitable Institutions for
training the teachers who carry
on this great work.
"To tho extent of Its resources
the normal school at Monmouth Is
doing wonderful work along this
line, but it is handicapped by lack
of finances.
'I am just as anxious as any-1
one to keep taxes down and to
economize in every way possible
and I would not at this time favor
any great Increase in state ex
penditures for educational pur
poses. But I do feel that too much
stress is being laid upon our state
university and state college, to
tbe neglect ot the normal school,
and I wilt propose that part of
the financial support now being
provided for the university and
the college be diverted to the up
building of the normal school."
Senator Dennis said that he was
not prepared at this time to say
that be will advocate the Immedi
ate "establishment of normal
schools in other parts of the state.
"I am more inclined to tbe be
lief that the present normal
school should be enlarged and
equipped to put it on a plane with
the best Institutions of its kind
in the country before we Btart in
to locate and build others," he
said.
Senator Dennis's plans include a
building program at Monmouth
to Include plenty of modern class
and dormitory buildings, and
laboratory and other equipment
that is now lacking.
The unreliability of the "audit'
of t-ute loans used by Governor
1'iene and fjin.er Stale Treasurer
Alye.fc in the late campaign wiw
again indicated at a mecilng of
the stat; land board yesterday. On
a tract of 200 acres in Klamath
county on which the stato had loan
ed $1000. J. V. Starrett, who wa
used by Tierce und Myers ns an
investigator, reported "isolated and
worthless now. Total loss." The
special Investigating committee ap
pointed in Klamath county by the
governor just before the election
appraifccd the place at $400. Yet
within 30 days after the election
it sold for $1000. The state loses
only the Interest.
Starrett estimated that the state
would lose $75,000 In Wallowa
county. A real estate man has re
cently written the land board ask
ing for a list of the places to be
sold, stating that In his opinion
the state will lose nothing in that
ccunty.

SENATE BILLS
Senator Eddy has introduced a
bill designed to make more prac
tical the course of study In high
schools and to place restrictions
on the privilege of students to
elect their courses of study. i
The bill provides that the
obligatory studies "shall include
United States history; the history
and leading principles of Amer
ican constitutional law in simple
form; American literature; the
English language. Including
grammar, composition, rhetoric,
spelling and punctuation; pen
manship; bookkeeping; practical
operations in arithmetic.
No student would "be permitted
to elect optional studies to the
extent of preventing thorough
training In required studies."
The bill is similar to one In
troduced by Eddy at the 1923
session, but which was defeated.
S. B. 8, Eddy Making certain
high school studies obligatory.
S. B. 9, Eddy To remove pro
tection from silver grey squirrels.
S. B. 10, Eddy Providing for
destruction ot animals or birde,

when they are held a nuisance.
S. B. 11, Eddy Relieving own
er or tenant of real property of
necessity of obtaining license to
kill beamer on premises, and re
moving Douglas county from in
hlbition against trapping.

various bills appears to have the
upper hand at this writing.
Its most formidable opposition
will come from the governor's
special committee on roads and
highways and automobile matters
in general, which caused 10 of Its
bills to be Introduced In the house
late yesterday. The manner In
which they were Introduced cave
to the unltiated their first Inklinr
of the scrap that hovers in the off
ing. Representative Ford, chair
man of the house committee on
roads and highways, presented
the bills with the statement that
that committee wished it under
stood that it was not to be consid
ered as favoring the proposals.
Opposition KtrcsM'd
His announcement conveyed
clearly that impression that the
committee was not willing to place
its sanction upon ull ot the pro
posals, but there were apparently
others in the house who desired
that there be absolutely no misun
derstanding as to the position of
the committee on these bills. Rep
resentative l'eirce took the floor
and asked that it be made per
fectly clear that the measures
recommended by the governor's
committee were being introduced
by the hruse committee solely to
place them In a position where
they could be referred to the roads
and highways committee for con
sideration In their regular order.
Speaker Ilurdick then proceeded
to make complely clear by r
statement the position of the house
committee. The bills went to first
reading, but the reading clerk
neglc-'ted to mention that the billt,
were thoe of the governor's coin
mltteo and not those of tho house
committee, and he was correct
ed.
Lki'iisc Tliemk'd Differ
In minor mat to is of road and
affic regulation the two factions
ppear to be pretty closely In ac-
ord, but on the question of re
vision of the motor law there Is
bound to be a clash. The motor
association program here calls foi
st raight reduction of 40 per cent
on tho licenses for nil cars, meet-
ng the deficit thus saddled upon
he road fund by increasing the
gasoline tax two cents, but making
o attempt to provide lower licence
fees for second hand and old car
ban those for new machines.
The governor's committee reccg-
Izes no need for reduction of the
licensee on new cars, but reconv
nends reductions of 10 per cent
on cars five, sis and seven yearn
Id, 25 per cent on machines eight
ine and ten years old. and 50 per
ent on all cars more than 10
years old. No provision Is mad
this proposal to replace the
money taken from the fund neces
sary to retriro and pay the Interest
on the ouUtandng highway bonds.
It also Invites opposition in that

Friend Saved Mrs. Wilhelmy
"Overwork, worry, no appetite,
no sleep, I looked like a corpse,"
says Mrs. Mary Wilhelmy ot St.
Paul, Minn., "and to add to my
troubles my physician advised an
operation. A friend, however,
asked me to try Lydia E. Pink

ho, and you should see the im
provement. I eat well, sleep well

what Lydia E. Pinkham'e Vege

helmy, and It will do ae much for
any suffering woman. Adv.
The Best None Too Good
"After many years of stomach
suffering I hae at last found
medicine for that trouble. But
believe me it was a timely find. I
couldn t have lasted a great whll
longer. My etomach would bloa
