i THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON FRIDAY, J-EBRUARY 20, 1925 C apital JjtJour nal 8alem. Oregon la Independent Newspaper Publuhed erery erenl dk except Sunday Telephone tl; oewe II GEOBQB PUTNAM, Editor and Publlnher A Needed Power Probably the most important Game measure before the legislature is H. B. 108, which authorizes the game commis sion to establish closed seasons in emergencies. The bill passed the house some weeks ago but is being held up in the uenate committee for some unknown reason. To determine when the supply of any species of game fish or animals will be injuriously affected by taking, the game commission is authorized by the bill to hold public meetings, by giving notice of the meetings in newspapers published in at least five counties in the district affected and require the attendance of witnesses by subpoena to take tc "moiiy, and if the evidence justifies, to establish a closed season for protection to take effect 15 clays after notice by publication. Defects in a similar law held invalid by the mpreme court are corrected by this bill. Without the power conferred by this measure, the com mission is powerless to act in emergencies that frequently arise, and the extermination of fish or game in certain local ities will merrily proceed. In order to effectively function for the preservation of game, the bill should be passed. Our game laws are ridiculous in many ways. The trout sc opens in the midst of the spawning season. The only trout given any protection are those too small to spawn. The open seasons are too lortg and the bags too big. This bill will act, if wisely enforced, to some degree as a corrective measure. Its Ideal Achieved 'Soak the taxpayer who can't hide his property that's the idea. 'Soak him. Soak the limber owners. Soak the farm er; soak the home-owner they can't hide their land and buildings. Soak 'em. Soak everything in sight" exclaims 3iir uplift contemporary the Portland Journal referring to the proposed bill submitting a referendum against any more income tax legislation for 15 years. The Journal will never recover from the blow dealt by the dear people in repealing the income tax bill. Yet the present system of placing the burden of taxation upon realty property is merely currying out, tne policy so Consistently Advocated for many years by the Journal in its effort to establish the single tax to abolish all taxes save those upon land. Although the people rejected repeatedly the single tax idea of the Journal by defeating numerous referendums, the J "rnal has lived to see a modified form of single tax in effect that soaks the farmer. It is therefore championing a tax upon industry and thrift, both opposed to single tax fundamentals. The Journal should smile instead of rage, at the success of its single tux propaganda, for it has unwittingly achieved its purpose of soaking the land owners. TODAY'S CROSS WORD PUZZLE HORIZONTAL 1.

I had been o much in love with Rod that I did not care for the sdmirutiou or at tention of any other man. 'Why I've been living jut like all other married women. I said to mjrielf any my heart grew a lit tle cold as I thought th.tt I had given Rod & chance to get tired of me. I determined however, to rhun3e that situation immediate ly. It was almost a strange elty which confronted me when Ver non and Lucille took me Into the Koiproous new cafe that was cele brating its opuning on that eve ning. We had gene o a revue which I hai not seen before. Vernon and Lucille seemed much surprised, as it had been opened a veek and they said they thought lint Rod nnd I went to all Hie ' first ni;hu" '1 hey looked ratl.er ati'angeiy when I said that Rod had been very bu.sy rutting on his new play but the Klance between them was so evan escent that I concluded I had boon mistaken. A table had been reserved for us noticed it was set for four but I thought nothing about it. I was too much Interfiled in the crowd pushing through the doors. Many people bowed lo me that I had not seen (or months and I realised that I was enjoying my self almost us much without Rod as I did with him. 'Oh, there Is fc'.ton Fees. You know him don't you, Kathtyn? Vernon Stedinaa remarked. "Yea, I know Mr. Kiiss," I re turned as the man made his way quickly to our table and after speaking tc all of us In turn said "Who Is this chair for?" "No one," answered Vernon. "That's lucky for me if you'll let me Join you. I'm alone." Klton Kgs3 locked directly at me as he spoke. X bowed my head. as the waiter p'.i't-d out tne chair. Mr. Fotss told rue some montns later that the nhole thing had been arranged by him and Vernon but at the time 1 f.ad not the slight ert suspicion that it was not a casual meeting.

I could not remember when we had danced together. At that time I did not realize that Rod had btcn "stepping out." I thauKlU lie was, like myself, very busy and after ihe interlude of en forced s?naration we would conic together again. , As my partner anu myself re turned to our seal 3. we found an xnui-sitely decorated table set for two that I had notio.vj next us. was occupir-j by Sada Fillmore and iy hul-and.

This It the fifth tlmr I've eeen them together tn the lust two weeks and the table is alwayi decorated as though for a bride. Of course I know she had that of fer from the Follies but they say Rod 'doubled the ante.' So why all the other kowtomlnc?" "What a thing," 1 answered as composedly aa I could. "I knew only that Jdiss Fillmore was had helped to such great success all hit (ther plays had been engaged for this one. tfhe Is a very beautiful girl, isn't she?"

"Good evening Rod,' I said calm ly. The gl'l with him turned and Lowed. Outwar-lly I knew that I showed non-a of the epilation that wai making my he-art beat faster. 8a this was where my husband had been sending his evening! lately. I devot.'d myself to my purine i and d;mced and flirted as I nevci had before and It was only afler ) returned home that night that I realized that for the first time since Rodney 15 vans and I had com hack from that trip to the Ureal Smoky Mountains, I had though! jealously of him as mine my hus band.
