THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM, OREGON
POLICE SCHOOL
TO DE EXPANDED
When the second annual police
school sponsored by Willamette
university convenes on March 9 for
a six day session, two departments
will be greatly expanded, tt was
announced by Registrar Tennant
Tuesday. One of these Is the traf
fic department and the otner toe
work handled by police matrons.
Tiie elaboration 01 Uiese two De
partments comes as the result of
interest taken during the first
school held last year.
Secretary of State Hoss will co
operate with the school and will
arrange to have all traffic men pos
sible attend the sessions which will
be held in Uie senate chamber of
the capltoL
The police matron department
will be in charge of Mrs. Elizabeth
Lossing of the Berkeley police de
partment. Mrs. Lossing is report
ed to have had wide experience In
this line.
Dean Hewitt of Willamette will
again have charge of the school. At
present he h working on the list
of instructors.
The school last year attracted
widespread attention since It was
the first of its kind to be establish
ed in the United States. Letters
asking information have been re
ceived from a number of places.
LIMifPRISON
TERMS TO YEAR
To head off a precedent which le
says has been set by Judge L. H.
McMahan of the circuit court for
only a few months time Governor
Norblad will recommend to the
legislature the enactment of a law
prohibiting sentences of less than
one year to the state prison. Be-1
cause of the rapidly increasing prts- '
on population the governor fears
that sentences of only a few month
will result In an overcrowding of
Inmates.
The governor cites one Instance!
In which Judge McMahan sent
enced a man for four months and
another In which Uie sentence was
for only 60 days. Upon the release
of prisoners the state gives each a
suit of clothes valued at $12.50 and
$5 In cash. Since a prisoner Is ell-;
gible for parole at the expiration of
his minimum time, which la about
one-third of the tune of sentence,
the governor says Uie result Is al
most thv payment of wages to a
man for serving in the penitentiary.
In the case of the man sentenced
for 60 days, the governor says, he
would be paroled at the end of 20
days and the state would present
him with the equivalent of $17.50
upon his release.
SCHEMED TO UNLOAD
BRIDGE ON STATES
(Continued from page 1)
.some people who see cause for real
alarm In the leg UU tive set-up
which has been devised and upon
which considerable promotion ener
gy Is being expended.
Left to stand alone, a proposal
that the state of Oregon should
pungle up two and a half million
dollars or better to take over the
bridge would not have a chance, It
is conceded. The extent of the sup
port for such a plan could not log
ically extend beyond the delegations
from Columbia county, Clatsop end
perhaps a few of the other coast
counties.
With an apparent realization of
this situation, the promoters of Uie
idea have worked out an elaborate
Idea with which Uvey may be able
to corral an impressive block of leg
islative votes. Briefly, their scheme
is this:
That Oregon join with Washing
ton In the purchase of the bridge.
Rainier on Uie Oregon side of the
Columbia and Longvlew on the
Washington side for public opera
tion, either as a free or toll bridge;
that the highway commission con
struct an extension of the west side
Pacific highway from Forest Grove
to Rainier by way of Apiary and
Banks, or loan to Columbia county
$'250,000 or more with which to con
struct this connecting link; that the
Wilson river road, Uie proposed
shortcut from Portland to the
beaches, be located and constructed
between Forest Grove and Tilla
mook, and that the enabling legisla
tion to permit the creation of Uie
Tualatin tunnel district be enacted.
The tunnel under the hills west of
Portland would be the connecting
link between the metropolis and the
eastern terminus of the Wilson river
road.
Tne strategy of the promoters In
tying together the bridge, tunnel
and Wilson river road projects Is
clearly apparent. But for a scheme
patently political In Its manifesta
tions the Inclusion of the Forest
Grove-Rainier extension of the
west side highway docs not com
mend Itself as being particularly
brilliant.
By including the Wilson river road
and the tunnel project in their plan
the promoters apparently are mak
ing a bid for the support of dele
gations from Multnomah, Columbia.
Tillamook and other counties along
the Roosevelt coast highway. To
Portland It would mean a short
route to the beaches, long sought
and continually agitated. To Tilla
mook and the coast counties to Uie
south It would mean a short route
both to Portland and northward to
Seattle and other Washington points.
To the promoters of the bridge
sale Idea the support of the Mult
nomah county delegation of seven
senators and 14 representatives would
be materially helpful when added
to the aggregate of the smaller
delegation from other Interested
counties.
But It does not exactly seem feas
ible that the Multnomah county
lawmakers would fall very ttrong
for the scheme with the Forest
Grove-Rainier highway link Includ
ed. One glance at the map of the
state wlU disclose plainly just what
the effect of such a highway would
be. It would complete a. straight
Uo. til-paved highway route di
rectly north from Eugene to Rainier
and thence by way of the bridge
on Into Washington, several miles
shorter than tlto present route
through Portland and over the Van
couver bridge, and would In a short
time divert practically all torough
traffic Iron southern Oregon and
California away from Portland.
Likewise, would It militate against
tourist traffic over tr.e east aide
Pacific highway north of Junction
Cltv.
Another detrimental effect wnlcn
the Forest Orove-Banier link
would have upon Portland would
be to divert through north and
south bound traffic over the coast
highway out of Portland.
Inasmuch as the highway com
mission has already Indicated that
a short road from Portland to the
beaches Is likely to be voluntarily
undertaken within the next year or
two It Is not likely that Portland
interest will embarass themselves
with the commission In Joining In
such an attempt to bulldoce the
commission.
For the promoters of the bridge
sale idea the Inclusion of the For
est Orove-Rralnler link Is, however,
a vital parcel of their propaganda
particularly with Washington In
terests. Washington, with Its own
resorts to sustain Is naturally not
going to break Its neck to facili
tate travel between Washington
point and Oregon beaches, nor is
it deeply Interested in promoting
the advancement of Portland. But
it Is logical that It would be In
terested In a more direct route of
travel to and from California.
Without a through north and
south connecting highway link the
Longvlew bridge would mean noth
ing to Washington, nor would n
investment in we image loot parti
cularly attractive.
The one feasible method of In
creasing the revenues of the bridge
is to increase travel over It and
the most promising method of In
creasing travel Is to connect It up
with a through nignway.
Right now, according to all re
ports, the bridge has not many of
the appearances of a good invest
ment even for the states. It repre
sents an Investment of more than
15.000.000 and Uie revenues are un
derstood to be barely enough to
pay maintenance and operating
costs. A recent attempt of the Col
umbia assessor to assess the Ore
gon end of the bridge for tax pur
noses at only 115,000 was blocked
by the state tax commission, which
ordered an assessment of aiuu,uuu.
It Is reported that the Longvlew
bridge company has already ac
faulted on Interest payments on Its
bonds and that the only hope of the
stockholders to get out from under
Is for the states to rush to their
rescue and relieve them of the
white elephant they own. At the
time of construction It was under
stood that the Bethelem Steel
company took bonds In payment for
.he steel going Into the structure.
These bonds, along with securities
said to have been taken over by
the Long Bell Lumber Interests
have, it Is said, been unloaded upon
private Investors In the east through
the underwriters.

ASKS HALF OF
DRY FINES BE
GIVEN TO STATE
One -half of all funds received by
the counties through enforcement
of proiribition laws should be turned
over to Uie state, in the opinion of
Governor A. W. Norblad, and not
merely that portion of the funds
until such time until the state re
ceives $50,000 for Its prohibition
fund. 7 lie governor will recom
mend a change In the law accord
ingly. In his message to the legis
lature. The hslf of the county funds, In
excess of $50,000 should continue to
be paid to the state, and placed In
the general fund, Uie governor be
lieves. This source of revenue would
add upwards of $200,000 to the state
a year.
The present law provides that af
ter Uie sum of $50,000 has been
reached, as the state share of th
county's fifty per cent collected
through prohibition enforcement,
the balance sliall be returned to
Uie respective counties submitting
the money. Complaint has reached
Uie governor Utat some of Uie
counties wait until Uie $50,000 sum
has been reached by remittances from
other counties, and then hold out
all of Its own funds for use within
their own counties.
The governor holds that the
state Is at great expense in paying
salaries of circuit court judges and
district attorneys In the counties,

half of all county funds collected
in this manner.

which covers 73 typewritten pages,
was submitted to Uie state printers

tne press Thursday. The governor
stated he would not read the entire
message to the legislature next week,
but would consume about twenty
minutes In discussing the more Im
portant recommendations he will
make.

BROCK'S REPORT
FAVORS PRINTING
OF TEXT BOOKS
Dissenting from the majority of
the legislative interim committee
making an Investigation of tht
question of state printing of teat-
books, Arthur Brock of Salem will
present a minority report to the
legislature recommending that the
plan be adopted in Oregon.
While the majority report will be
adverse to state printing. Brock says
It actually amounts only to a rec
ommendation that no action be tak
en at the present time.
Four members of the committee
of seven, It Is said, were In favor of
state printing of texts. They were
H. H. Wealherspoon of Elgin, chair
man of the committee, Senator Co
lon R. Eberhard of La Grande, Rep
resentative James H. E. Scott of
Milton and Brock of Salem. Two of
the four, Eberhard and Scott, how
ever, were opposed to going Into the
scheme at the present time. Brock
is hopeful that Weatherspoon will
oin him In the minority report
The proposal to print text-books
In the state printing plant. says
Brock's minority report, "would save
to the people of the state, accord
ing to conservative estimates, at
least 40 per cent of the present out
lay and keep a large portion of the
remainder In the state for labor.
... This plan could be financed
by a bond Issue for this specific pur
pose. After paying interest on the
bonds sold there would be a sub
stantial saving to the people.
"in tne iinal meeting of uie com
mission It was developed that two
members were largely influenced by
the attitude of the State Teachers'
association, which was currently In
session.
"The teachers of this state (as
well as all others) are subject to a
constant flow of propaganda against
state-printed text-books, put out by
text-book publishers. Unfortunately,
110 agency has resources with which
to combat the misleading statements
put out by the publishers, with the
result that the teachers (though
they are as honest as any class of
people) come to believe these state
ments to bo facts."
Other members of the Interim
committee are Representative R. 8.
Hamilton of Bend, R. R. Turner of
The Dalles and A. C. Hampton of
Astoria, who became a member of
the committee in place of Senator
A. W. Norblad after the latter be
came governor.
