Resolution Asking Inves

Work ' At University
And College Passed.
Dallas, Or., June C. After a
heated discussion the state grunge
convention last night called upon
Governor Pierce by resolution to
appoint a committee of five to in
vestigate the University of Oregon
and the Oregon Agricultural col
lege with reference to duplication
in their courses of study. The
resolution is to the end that dupli
cations may be done away with us
far as possible for the benefit of
the taxpayers- o? the state. The
committee doubtless will be ap
pointed by the governor at once,
and It will after its investigations
report back its findings and rec
ommendations. Another resolution pertaining
to taxation was an endorsement
accorded senate bill No. 202, in
troduced by Senator Tooze at the
1925 session of the legislature,
providing for a readjustment of
taxation and assessment to bring
about an equalization ot the tax
burden. The measure was defeat
ed In the legislature.
Strict enforcement of the pro
hibition law and the law providing
for the punishment of drunken
drivers were endorsed by the con
vention, while another resolution
asks for a suppression of motion
pictures that show drunkenoss
and drinking.
National legislation was asked
by resolution to pr.Mbit the man
ufacture and use of substitutes for
dairy products. A similar meas
ure was defeated in the Orogon
legislature.
The farm reller measure enact
ed by the 1925 legislature, where
by state loans were made available
to farmers for reseeding purposes
the state grange believes should
be made permanent, and a resolu
tion to that effect was adopted.
The reforestation and fire pro
tection program of the state was
endorsed. Inasmuch as the main
arterial highway.-, of the state
have been completed the conven
tion went on record by resolution
in favor of a definite policy for
market road construction.
The convention ground away
until late last night on resolutions
and other convention business and
today the executive officers are In
session. The convention ends to
day. Business activity in Marion
county fur May, 1925, was great
er than any other May In the his
tory of the county, according to
the number of Instruments filed
during the month, which In con
sidered the barometer of business
activity. Eight hundred four In
struments were filed during the
month. Of these 280 were deeds
and 194 were mortgages.
Records, which have been kept
for the past 10 years, show that as
a rule May is a little below par
as a business month. May of this
year was slightly behind April,
during which month 8.11 Instru
ments were filed. In May, 1924,
the number stood at 611. One
year, 1918, the number went down
as low as 374.
The figure Ibis year stands con
siderably above that recorded in
1920, considered a banner year
from a business standpoint, In
1920 there were only 701 Instru
ments recorded.

POLITICAL
ISSUES TAKE
Taxes And Financial Pol
icies Taking Center Of
Stage Already; Candi
dates Getting Busy.
Developments of the past ten
days have pretty well crystalized
the Issues upon which the prima
ry and general elections cam
paigns of next year are to be
fought out In the opinion of po
litical observers who have been
scrutinizing the situation.
Taxation and etnte financial
policies are going to form the
background for the battle, and
there is little possibility of suc
cess for the candidate who seeks
to sidestep tbem. That much was
pretty well settled when the per
fected petitions invoking the ref
erendum on the tobacco tax, the
tithing tax and the bus and stage
regulation law were filed last
week.
Grance Forces Issue
The action of the grange in de
claring war upon the Dennis res
olution to Inhibit Income and in
heritance taxes in Oregon for 15
years, and their authorization of
an initiative drive to plnce an in
come tax measure on the ballot
in November, 1926, leaves no
doubt as to what will and what
will rot be pertinent to the cam
paign
' And tho Income tnx and the
Dennis resolution will be the pl
votal points around which the
rest of the fireworks will center.
even If certain factions of the
electorate did believe they had
burled this issue when they re
pealed the Income tax last fall.
So far as Its Income tax features
are concerned the Dennis resolu
tion Is considerable of a Joke, for
It could Inhibit the levying of
such a tax only bo long as the peo
ple chose not to enact one. Hut
there is a more serious feature to
the inheritance tax provision of
the resolution.
' Not Entirely Joke
If approved hy the voter the
Dennis resolution would automat
ically revoke the present inheri
tance tax law and deprive the
state of better than $300,000 a
year in revenues now derived
Trom this source. Considering the
present status of state finances K
is not likely that the entire pub
lic will take kindly to a proposal
to deplete the public purse to any
such extent.
Another development that in
jects the taxation problem Into
the field Is the growing certain
ty that Governor Pierce will be
a candidate to succeed himself,
and his success for the nomina
tion In the democratic primary is
a foregone conclusion. Setting
aside the various rumors of deals
and agreements reported as hav
ing been entered into by the gov
ernor an t his friends in the legis
lature as being too flimoy to be
seriously considered, there Is no
potential candidate in the dem
ocratic ranks possessing sufficient
strength to even make things in
