The governor signed the bill reluctant ly, explaining; that while he recom mended an Increase In the salaries he was unwilling for the increase to be above $6000 a year. This bill received an adverse report from tho Joint ways and means committee, but both houses of the legislature went ov er the heads of the committee and passed It. The measure caused Senator Staples, who Introduced it, 45 days of agony, and. he opposed all other salary bills that came up. He claimed that the lawyer mem bers of the senate persuaded hfm to Introduce it, promising; that they would not favor any other salary bills. Ilut a flood of sal ary bills followed the Staples bill, several of which were paKsed and are still waiting the veto or ap proval of the governor. "I have signed this bill very re luctantly," said the governor In hts Rtatement, ''because I believe at this time that tho amount of the salaries should have been fixed at $6000 per annum. Salary Too Low ''In my message to the 33rd legislative assembly I suggested that an Increase in the salaries was due the supreme judges from the present salary of $5250 per annum. I consider this decidedly too low a salary to pay men emln ent enough In the law to be su preme Judges. "The alternative was presented tonight of approving this bill or vetoing It. Hetween the two I have decided to approve the bill. The supreme court Is the great mainstay of our civilization. Am erican Institutions are maintained through the stability of our courts Men who sit upon the bench should be freed from business cares and be given sufficient sal ary so that they may give all of their time and ability to the legal work before ttiem.

HUNDREDS of thousands of dollars are being spent tins month to tell people in every corner of the United States about Oregon's possibilities and Oregon's quality products.

Merchants can feature dis plays of Oregon products; one or more numbers in programs j-fw .ink Associated Industries of Oregon Portland, Oregon Dan C. Freeman, Manager I With approximately 1600 acre alrealy signed up out of the 2000 acres needed under prison flax con tracts, it is believed the 2000-acre flax signup will go over, although at a meeting at Aumsville last week, attended by B. C. Miles or (he linen mill and superintendent Crawford of the flux plant protests still were made against the con tracts offered by the slate-. The prutt-st on the part of Aums vllle farmers continues to be be caue of the price, particularly the price offered fur flax 30 inches In length or over. The Aumsv-ilie fanners say thut the 30 inch flax is only a remote possibility for them, in fact virtually an impus siliility. They declare they can rats' 28 inch or 26 inch flax but not the longer flax, and that the length has been boosttd just suf ficiently to get them out on the highest price. They declare that by raiding 28 Inch flax they will be brought under the lower price and the state reap all the advantage. Wlti 2000 acres contracted this, it Is estimated, will provide 2U0 ton of fiber, all that tho priiton plant can handle. 1're.Udent Miles of the new linen mill in satisfied that there will be a sufficiency of flax for the mill's purposes. He has contracted for 45 tons of the 1125 crop and lhO tons for the 1926 crop. The prison has on hand about 100 tons. I- lfieen tons were shipped east to set the price. All told he belivves there will be a sufficient amount of flax to meet the needs of the null. Tim question of quality Is one paramount in the minds of the mlil poop It, rather than of length. Weather conditions may affect the crop somewhat, particularly as to length, and if an extiuordlnnrllli dry season pops up the length may be reduced but if the .quality Is there It will be satisfactory to the mill people. Thev pay Just as much for the shorter fiber an for the long fiber. Work on construction of the new plant on the Fairgrounds road i scheduled to start this afternoon. There will bo no basement and work of laying the foundation will start Immediately. ROBKERS PICK ONLY QUALITY MERCHANDISE (Continued from Page One the second story of the building.

As iu all ot the other jobs laid to this gang, a thorough familiar ity with tho etore and the goods ot vulue was shown by the rob bers. Without disturbing the bulk ofthe stock they selected from the piles of merchandise that hud been laid out In preparation of the sale that opens in the store tomorrow, only the choice articles, their dis crimination Indicating that they had made a thorough study of the store and Its stock, as well as the safest means of entering and leav ing the building. Their looting accomplished, the gang secured a stepladder from the basement and made their es cape through the skylight they entered. The complete absence of finger prints or other clues Indicates that all of the robbers wore rub ber gloves and were adepts at the work. Think Antn TTsed The police are certain that tlr stolen goods were carted away in an automobile, yet none of thi night patrolmen on the heat have courses of action open to me, I prefer to give them a little more than I think they should have at this time, rather than to compel them to work tor two years more at a lower salary than I think they should have." can be devote J to them ; 'Oregon Products" dinners or lunches may be served; school children may write essays, or make up lists of all the things made here.

THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON STATE MONEY FOR HOSPITAL DIES BY VETO 1 (Continued from Pags One) able until the building for the hospital should hare been com pleted and accepted by the board of regents of the University of Oregon. The hospital was to be under the supervision of the state university medical school. In his veto message on the land settlement commission bill the governor Intimates that he will veto appropriation bills totaling about 1500,000. He says: "This bill appropriates $15,000 from the general fund for the use of the land settlement commission to buy stock, equipment and pay outstanding obligations. It Is necessary at this time to veto ap propriations amounting to ap proximately $500,000. and I be lieve this Is one place where we can retrench without serious loss. I recommend that the commission sell one of the three farms they now have, and use the money to improve the remaining two." Governor Pierce also vetoed house bill 232, introduced by Representative Shelton, which proposed to grant to holders ot water right certificates the right to hold such rights Indefinitely beyond the 40 year period pro vided by the present statute. "The present law gives to ap. propria tors of water and investors in hydro-electric power plants all the right, power and privileges that It seems to be should be granted, except a few minor changes to make the present law conform exactly to the federal statutes" says the veto message. "This proposed measure, house bill No. 232, goes farther and by certain provisions and limitations, will, I fear, create a condition detrimental to the interests of the people.'1 reported the presence of any suspi cious machines in that neighbor hood during the night. A woman living on the second floor ot the building reported this niomin? that she was awakened about 3 o'clock, but did not know what had disturbed her sleep. Officers who investigated the robbery were Inclined to scout the idea that the robbery may have been an inside job, pointing out that the method of operation brLnd it to be the work of the gang whicn perpetrated the other robberies. It has been generally conceded that this gang probably operates out of Portland In high powered uutomobiles, an upon in formation furnished by scouts who go over the ground of con tomplnted robberies carefully.
