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.

Over halt the forests in the

are in Oregon, Washington and
California, was the statement
made by George E. Griffith of the
public relations commission of the
United States forestry service, in
an address before the Salem Rotary
ciub at their luncheon this noun.
Much of the lnnd of western Ore
gon and Washington will alwuyu
be better suited to forestry than tu
any other purpose, said Mr, Grif
fith. 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.

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.

ARTIFICIAL SILK
PLAN OF SPINNERS
BU' k bui n, England Tho sug
tf'ftion th'Jt nrtlfh-lal silk will ever
displace cotton, or even become a
Merlous competitor Is absurd, sc
cordlng to T. Wilkinson, bend of
the Textile College, who declared
recently Hint "cotton is not pl.iyed
out yet." He added that a tonihln
ittlon of cotton nnd artificial eltks,
however, was a valuablo Idea nnd
capable of enormous development.

Mr. Wilkinson said tho progroHH '
made In the manufacture of artlfl

Lancashire loom was encouraging,
and that milts were In the course

GAME BOARD
UPINTHEAIR
Members of the state ram.-
commission are somewhat In a
quandry as to what has happened
ana what may happen to them,
according to Ben Dorr is of Eu
gene, one of the commissioners,
who etopped In Salem last night
and this morning on his way
home from a meeting of the board
in Portland.
News that the governor In hie
message to the legislature was
recommending that the game com
mission and Its activities be trans
terred to the Oregon Agricultural
college came as a complete sur
prise to the commissioners and
was received while they were in
session Monday, said Dorr Is, inti
mating that he did not entirely
relish the prospect of being made
a professor. Is euch were the gov
ernor's Intent.
From cither sources It Is learn
ed that the surprise was the more
complete for the commissioners
in that they had discussed legis
lative proposals affecting the
game commission and laws with
the governor at his own request,
and that no mention whatever of
the program thus outlined was
contained In the message.

Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Wfecon

Kansas, principally in the cur
rent month.
Opposition Strong;
Opposition to ratification Is
more noticeable In Illinois, Mich
igan and Texas than In some ot
the other states. Farm organiza
tions in Michigan have pledged
themselves against the amend
mena. The resolution introducing
the measure In the Missouri leg
islature yesterday urged Its re
jection on the ground that It
would mean an "additional army
of bureaucrats."
In Illinois women's organiza
tions and labor bodice are advo
cating ratification, while manu
facturers' and farmers' organiza
tions are opposing such an act as
part of the national basic law.
There are no Indications either
In Texas, Kausno or North Da
kota when a ratification resolu
tion will be introduced.
