Anderson, author of a proposed government control plan In the Wickersham report annex believes his project "would take profits of $2,000,000,000 to $3,000,000,000 a year from the pockets of criminals and permit the government to eradicate crime instead of letting the crim inal use It to build up crime." The bootlegger could not com pete with government control be cause he couldn't meet Its price,' said Anderson, who was one of the Wickersham commissioners voting for revision of the 18th amendment. "With the bootlegger eliminated. there would be no illicit sales. Con scqtiently, It would benefit the youth under 18 years of age because under the plan he could not buy liquor. "Restrictions around the sale of adults would be sufficient to reduce drinking to a minimum." Anderson believes the plan would improve general conditions through out the nation, especially among workers. Prohibition, he believes, has not lessened the demand for liquor, and never will. SOUTH AMERICAN BONDS SAFE-HEWITT Repudiation of bonds by South American countries Is not likely, Dean Roy R. Hewitt of tlie law department of Willamette univer sity said Wednesday in telling Ho tarians of his recent visit to the continent to the south, the third of a series of talks given to ser vice clubs of the city within the past two weeks. Dean Hewitt gave ' m his reason for advancing the I theory the fact that the countries down there need the credit and that! natural resources are apparently unlimited. An influx of Germans. Italians and other people of Eu rope will help them stabilize mat-1 ters. the speaker said. Although the people of the South American republics are intensely patriotic, even to the point of be ing foolish, their revolutions are short lived and eoon forgotten. Hewitt dubbed the South Ameri cans as the "poorest sports In the world" Illustrating this statement by describing the scene attendant upon an International football game. Twenty thousand weapons wore taken from fans on their way to the game, he said. Business men of South America are extremely polite and are not in such a hurry as are their broth ers In the United States, Hewitt added, saying they always have plenty of time to tfUk and show v 15 1 tors about. The measure providing for the closing of Klamath county offices at noon Saturdays, requested by Klamath officials and Introduced by the delegation from that county, was rereferred by the house Wed nesday to the committee on cities and counties to correct wording, detected in reading the UU, ADAMS' CRITIC UNDER FIRE AS SOVIET AGENT Washington, D. 0., 0ft Recom mendations that reports from the house press gallery of Laurence Todd, representative of the Feder ated Press, be carefully scrutinised. have been laid before the house In the report of the Fish communist Investigating committee. The Federated press, organized In 1916," the report said, "aims to furnish Information to the radical press of the country. Including communist newspapers. Its main clients are either advanced social ist papers, radical labor units, or communist or other revolutionary papers." Todd was recently tn the news here as the one who charged B. J. Adams, attorney for the federal trades commission, with attempt ing to bring about sale of the Eu gene power plant to the "power trust." The charges, Todd said, were based on a letter alleged to have been written by F. M. Ben nett, Identified with the Eugene water board. Adams Is a former state highway commissioner of Oregon. Todd was later quoted as having admitted to the trade commission he had nothing to base his charges upon except the Bennett letter, and that he had no first hand In formation. The Fish report said the Feder ated press "maintains a substan tial organization and covers the United States and has connection with radical newspapers In for eign countries." "It has received approximately $5,000 annually from the Garland fund," the report declares. RETIRES JUDGES AT AGE GF 70 Voluntary retirement of judges on full pay at the age of 70 'a pro vided for in a group of bills per tatning to the judiciary and Ju dicial procedure which Senator Crawford has ready for Introduc tion. Another of the measures pro vides for a state judicial council of 15 members, five Judges, five law yers and five laymen, Instead of the present council of five Judges. The retirement bill applies to supreme and circuit court Judges who have served continuously for 15 years as supreme or circuit court Judges or attorney general. The enlarged judicial council would be appointed by the chief Justice. Among the five Judges serving would be the chief Justice himself, one associate justice and three other judges of courts of rec ord. The theory of naming five laymen, It was said, is that they would serve as a "leavening influ ence." Other provisions of the group of bills are: Amending the law relative to dis barment proceedinB.1 to make It clearer and more definite, and pro hibiting publicity until the charges reach the supreme court. Providing that the court may suspend rules of evidence 00 as not to require a litigant to prove or disprove a set of facts when there is no bona fide dispute, even though there Is an Issue In the pleadings. Providing for the appointment by the supreme court of a state code reviser. His duty would be, during and between legislative sessions, to formulate bills for the clarifica tion of laws or for the repeal of useless laws, and to coordinate the statutes for codification. He would receive compensation of $900 a year. Removing the requirement that chattel mortgages be witnessed. Adding a qualification for su preme court and circuit court Judges that they be not over 70 years old at the time of appointment or elec tion, the act not to apply to Judges In office at the time of passage of the bill relative to their running for re-election unless they shall have served for 15 years. Reinstating the statute author izing the chief justice to assign circuit Judges to districts other than their own. Amending the service of summons law so that summons may be served on the vice president and cashier of a corporation, as well as upon their superiors. Providing for levy of attachment or execution on personal property interests In estate of decedents. Requiring courts to Instruct Juries in writing before argument by coun sel. At present the Juries are In strutted after argument and not In writing unless requested. Prom other sources bills are to be Introduced providing for a non-par tlsan Judiciary, and preventing the practice of law by persons not licensed.

Chantea Reaaonabia mm MILLER PLANS BILL PROVIDING FOR SALES TAX After a conference Tuesday with Oovernor Meier, Senator Miller ot Josephine county believes the gov ernor will be sympathetic towards a program of state promotion mea sures that Miller hopes to Intro duce at tills session of the legisla ture. Miller's program Is for th purpose of placing Oregon's scen ery, game and other outdoor at tractions before the country In such a way that the state will get the advantage of tourist traffic that he believes Its resources Justify. Before the state can go as far as it should In promotion, however. Miller declares the system of taxa tion must be revised, and be be lieves taxation is the biggest prob lem before the legislature. He thinks the excise and Income tax acts, and the Intangibles tax. If it Is re-enacted are not adequate to relieve real property taxation as they should, and Senator Miller would be one of the sponsors ot a .sales or consumption tax that la now being prepared. "It la Imperative, said Miller, "that adequate provision be made not only to take care of the needs of the state institutions, but to wipe qut the state's deficit. Further, an adequate financial plan should pro vide for a surplus or reserve, built up as the years go by, totake care of emergencies." Relative to state promotion Miller said: "There Is a feeling over the state that we should have a movement for conservation of game and wild life. The present came commission has gone far towards outlining a program over a period cf years. But the most constructive part of -the program, which I am preparing to write into the game code, is a sur vey of the wild life and other out door attractions. This has the ap proval of the game commission. It should include the services of an engineer who could devise a meth od whereby young salmon, passing down the Willamette, Rogue and other rivers after the spawning season, would not be killed on the way. It la estimated that 50 or 60 per cent of the young fish passing down the Willamette are killed in the turbines at Oregon City." Senator Miller also has in mind a measure providing for a state economic geological engineer to carry further the mineral survey al ready begun. Another contemplated measure is based on the possibility that oil will be struck In Oregon, This will be a well-drilling code. Miller says the oil prospect In Ore gon Is encouraging.
