BYRON.
Steiwer's Noble Service
, Oreeonians can note with pardonable pride that having
recovered from the scare created by Jim Reed's little joke
of threatening to publish, the list of senators and congress
men who were persistent violators of the Volstead law and
constant customers of bootleggers frequenting the corridors
Sf the national capitol, Senator Steiwer did valiant service
as one of the prohibition leaders in putting over the Anti
' Saloon League's new bill providing drastic penalities for
liquor law violators. Of course Mr. Steiwer is a compari
tively recent convert to the cause of the noble experiment,
having joined the ranks of the political drys during his can
didacy two years ago, but his zeal as a proselyter is. all the
greater. .
The penalties provided by the bill engineered through
by the Oregon senator and also voted for by Senator McNary
include a $10,000 fine or five years imprisonment or both
for first offenders along with hardened violators of the Vol
stead act. It is therefore, as characterized by Senator Bruce
"another step in the march of tyranny by marking out all
distinction between first and subsequent offenses." -
Now a $10,000 fine and 5 years imprisonment for a first
offense, for what is merely a misdemeanor, is going some,
but we think the senator erred on the side of leniency. We
already have life imprisonment for repeaters without check
ing the repeating, so that more drastic penalties are needed.
The bill should have provided shooting at sunrise, which
would at least decimate the number of the thirsty and ought
to gladden the heart of ardent drys like Senator Steiwer.
In this connection we again repeat our hope that the
$24,000,000 additional sought for enforcement be utilized
to dry up the District of Columbia including congress. It
would be retributive justice for some of our senators to have
to pungle up $10,000 and serve five years in prison for their-
first offense that is the first they were caught at. Besides,
it is only fair that those who provide penalties for others
for doing what they do themselves, those whom Senator
Reed characterized as "knavish hypocrites, who mask be
hind pretended virtue and seek to hold office by virtue of
false pretenses" should be given a dose of their own purify
ing medicine and so help them "sink into that obliquy which
is the 3ust reward, of cruelty, oppression and wrong."
For Consolidation .
The heads of the State University and Agricultural Col
lege and Normal schools say that if it is necessary to have a
board of regents and merge the millage taxes, they want to
have something to say about it, and have agreed upon the
following program, though objecting to the whole proposal:
Appointment ot a board of regent to handle the affairs of the univer
sity, college and normals, the board to consist of nine members, the
term of one to expire each year.
The governor is to make the appointments, but they must be con
firmed by the senate, none of the regents is to be appointed from the
towns in which the schools are located and not more than one member
of the direotors or regents shall be an alumnus of one or the other
schools. This means that three of the board of regents will be alumnus,
one from the normal, one from the college-and one from the university.
The sum derived from the millage will be pooled and the board of
regents win mane the necessary division.
The Schulmerich-Bell bill which creates a board of
higher education with a board of nine directors who would
hire a chancellor and have supervision and control of the
normal schools ami the university and college, attempts to
carry out this plan. However, any consolidation program
should be based upon a scientific survey of the institutions
by impartial educational experts, but the selection of a
common board is the first step towards the desired consoli
dation. If the measure is defeated, it will probably be due to
political pressure exerted by the higher educational insti
tutions through their extensive organization in the legis
lature and without. However, if the legislature fails to act,
a mucn more drastic program of consolidation will unques
tionably be put up to the people by initiative petition.

"You don't believe that, do you?"
Strayer replied.
"Then you don't believe the state
chamber Is on a sound business
basis?" Collier asked.
"I think the state chamber has
on hand a high-pressure program
to give somebody a Job. Who It Is
I don't know' was 8 tray era answer.
Only Kiddle and Collier voted to
approve the bill.

nematode pest, which had been dis
allowed the previous evening, was
given another hearing Wednesday
night.
The majority and minority re
ports of a sub-committee on state
university and state college affairs,
which have been the cause of much
dissension, were tabled.
In place of the disapproved Yeon
memorial resolution Senator Dunne
will Introduce another not carrying
an appropriation.
A sub-committee was appointed
to investigate tho soldiers' and
sailors' commission which is asking
for $1500. Senator Strayer recalled
that about 40 years ago the legis
lature allowed it $100,000, and said
he wanted to know what was done
with the money.
The committee approved a bill
calling for an annual audit of all
state departments. .
Bills providing for appropriations
covering improvement of streets
in Eugene, Corvallis and Monmouth
on which state property abuts were
referred to tho sub-committee on

plant on UMrty nreet near Mill.
Due to the big fill being made in
Liberty street, between Trade and
Mill and the construe lion of the
culvert over the mill ditch, the
present warehouse building is
longer suitable, and will be aban
doned.
The main office of the company
will continue to be located in its
present quarters at 237 North Lib
erty street, until the time arrives
to build an office and electric store
building on the property which the
company purchased a few years ago,
just north of the NeUon building on
Liberty and Chemeketa streets.
The expenditures contemplated In
Salem and vicinity during the year
1929 include: .
For extension of distribution sysT

growth of Salem and vicinity, In an
electrical way," Mr. Hamilton states,
"and also an indication of the faith
and confidence that the officials of
the Portland Electric Power com

Salem and surrounding country.
"The amount of money required
for the extension of distribution
lines in and about Salem, has been
increasing annually, due to the
rapid growth and development of
the community.

to provide connections to and from
this transformer.
