TOURIST SHOT BY DRY AGENTS Public Service Commission's Fate Cause for Concern Conjecture Is running strong In1 the undercurrents around the leg islature today as to what is going to happen to the public service commission and the appropriation uud-r which it functions, and It Is no great secret that there is con siderable uneasiness being maul fost iu the situation by tne mem bers of the commission and lis em ployes up on the third floor. Summed up, the whole puzzle is whether or nut there will be such a thini, as the public service com mission when the governor and legislators get through bickering. Governor Pierce caused just a passing stir Monday In his mes sage when he recommended that the public service commission be placed under a tee system that would make it self supporting, and started the commission and its friends to checking up on the r Lines in the legislature. As their soundings have progressed their concern for the outcome appears to have grown proportionately. This morning when the report of the budget commission was placed on the desks of the houoe and senate members there was a 'renewed stir of Interest in the topic. Tucked away among thc items of appropriation simply passed on to the legislature with out recommendation was the iten of $130,000 for maintenance of the public service commission dur iug the coming biennium. Investigation revealed that the budget committee split on the item with Governor Pierce and Stale Treasurer Myers outspoken la their opposition to any appropria tion, and Secretary of State Kozer recommending an appronrint! r.i of $130,000, slashing $10,000 off the budget request of the commis sion. It Is common Knowledge, and the governor 's making no hours Over halt the forests in the United States at the present time are in Oregon, Washington and California, was the statement made by George E.

Today tho forests In most parts of the country havo been ex hau3tc(i, and the center of Hi: lumber Industry Is in the north west. The lumbering industry in Ore son .s alreaiiy experiencing e sharp upward turn, which will soon exhaust the forests unless they are conserved, Mr. Griffith stated. The gratest problem of the for estry service was said to be elim inating man made forest tires. The speaker asked for co-operation in fire prevention. Beforo the address began It. H.

ROTARIANS HEAR FORESTRY TALK GATCD SUSPECT IN LAVA BEDS about hie desire to have the pub lic service commissioner abolished. Likewise, evryone Is aware of what is instors for any appropria tion tor the commission that Is hauded up to the governor. Al ready the veto axe is being whet ted for just such emergencies. The governor takes the position that the public service commission has and is functioning more for the protection of the public serv ice corporations than for the peo ple of Oregon, and that such belug the case the commission should either be abolished, or the burden of its support placed upon the cor porations. What gives the situation euch r. serious aspect from the stand point of the commission is the at titude being taken by the legisla tors. An alarming number of them, Interviewed by the prss. have taken the same position aj the governor, and it appears very doubtful whether sufficient strength could be mustered on ibis issue to override the executive veto. Chief concern by the friends o the commission at present is being evidenced in the attitude of th members of the ways and means committee, for ,if so inclined, this committee can effectively block auy appropriation by refusing to report the bill In until the last two or three days of the session. The governor, then, by exercising his statutory privilege of houi;ii up a bill for five days before pass ing upon it, could deny the ieis luiure even a chance to override his veto. So serious Is the outlook that friends of the commission are linown to be considering the ad visability of Introducing a nictit ure levying foes that will make Lhe commission self-supporting. HELD HERETIC Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 14 By tho Associated Press) Contentions that Bishop William M. Brown, re tired prelate of the Protestant Kplscopal church was convicted of heresy last May in full accord with canon and civil law were present ed today to the church's court of review by Chnrlos L. Dibble of Kalamazoo, Mich., church advo cate. The proceedings, It was expect ed, would wind up the open hear ings in the case as the next tri bunal to which It may go Is the house ot bishops, all of whose sessions are executive. After Mr. Dibble and associate, John 11. Smart of Cleveland, have conclud ed their arguments on the appeal, Joseph V. 8hartf, chief counsel for the accused bishop, will close the formal arguments. Bishop Brown, It was announc ed, will wind up his own cuse with a personal appeal to his fellow bishons for a reversal of the trial court. Speaking of tho doctrine of tho trinity, which counsel for Bishop Brown had branded as a "mathe matical absurdity," Dibble denied tt Implied that God Is three con nected persons or personalities, but rather an indivisible being.
