Allahabad, India OT Mahatma
Gandhi Saturday requested an In

Lord Irwin, and settlement of In

The mahatma was understood to
have sent the viceroy a formal let
ter Saturday asking for an Inter
view and It was virtually certain
that Lord Irwin would Invite him
to Delhi Immediately.
It Is expected that Gandhi and
his associates will ask general
amnesty for all political prisoners
as the first condition to acceptance
of MacDonald's proposals and that
the viceroy, with MacDonalds ap
proval will grant amnesty If Gan
dhi will call off hts ci-.1l disobedi

SESSION DRAWS
NEAR TO CLOSE
BUT LITTLE DONE
BY CLAYTON V. BERN1IARD
The first bill of major Import
ance enacted by the Oregon legis
lature became a law with the sign
ing of the Rogue river closing
measure by Governor Julius L.
Meier Saturday. Tile close of the
fifth week of the session, and
with one more week officially re
maining of the 40 day limited per
iod, left hundreds of other mea
sures, many of them placed In the
important list, yet remaining for
final action and consideration by
the two nouses.
The past week saw the first of
the power measures brought onto
the floor, wnue tnroe ouier ieaa-
ing administration measures were
yet to be reported out of commit
tees. Most of tbe taxation mea
sures await action, while appropri
ation bills, -highway bills, and the
bulk of other legislation are still in
various stages of development. The
impossibility of completing the
necessary task before next Friday
night vanquished what little hope
there may have been for adjourn
ment on schedule. The overtime
period Is now being placed be
tween a week and 10 days.
UTILITY MEASURES
Action has been the feature of
both houses during the past few
days, both holding late meetings,
and the senate continued in ses
sion Saturday. The one-man com
missioner of utilities measure was
reported out of the committee fa
vorably Friday night, and will per
haps be a special order of business
early next week. The grange
power district bill and the hydro
electric commission bill, ore ex
pected out of committees Monday,
The taxation situation, becoming
more entangling during the week
by ultimatums from real property
tax payers for relief, have not been
definitely formed, although com
mittees have worked late devising
some plan of relieving property of
much of Its burden.
Another major bill was disposed
of by the defeat in the house of
the old age pension measure, while
the free-text book bill has gone
half way through, with the appro
val of the lower house. The senate
killed the move fur municipalities
assessing a two mill levy for main
tenance of municipal bands, and
the house on the floor killed the
bill regulating stock running at
large. These were the only three
bills de "gated on the floor of both
houses, while the governor has yet
to exercise his llrst veto.
PORT ISSUE SETTLED
The Port of Portland commis
sion act, which has been a matter
of contention during the entire
session, was disposed of tills week,
and Is now before the governor for
his signature. Hearings during the
past week have been taken up with
the prohibition referendum, a tun
nel commission act, the state po
lice system, taxation bills, and other
highway bills. None of these have
been reported out of committees.
In addition there are many minor
bills which will take up time on
the floor. Bills are still coming into
both houses.
The railroad bill, limiting number
of freight cars which may be hauled
to 70, after having passed the sen
ate by a bare majority, was recalled
from the house for reconsideration,
and has been set for special order
Monday, The basic science bill, re
quiring all healing agents' to have
a knowledge of five basic sciences,
is also up for final consideration
In the senate Monday. The sixth
week will probably sea night ses
sions on both sides of the legislative
halls.
C0 NEW BILLS
New measures Introduced neared
the 600 mark, a statistical review of
accomplishment and activities re
vealed. The house Introduced 336
while the senate brought in 263. Of
this total only 141, or one-fourth,
have been disposed of either oy pas
sage In both houses or killed and
withdrawn. One hundred forty-seven
have gone half way through,
passing one of the houses. This
leaves 301 still In committees.
Tlie governor has signed 39 bills,
13 of the house bills and 26 of the
senate proposals. Eighteen others
have passed both houses and are
ready for the executive action. The
house has passed 74 others while
the senate approved 63 otners.
Eighty-four bills have dropped by
the wayside, cither by withdrawals,
indefinite postponement or defeated
on the floor. The house has with
drawn 38, indefinitely postponed 18
and killed two on the fioor. The
senate withdrew 10, indefinitely
postponed 15 others and defeated
one on the floor.
HIGHWAY BILLS
In addition to major measures,
there still remain to be acted upon
many different highway measures,
other power and utility provisions,
the matter of depositing all funds
Into one general department for ap
propriation, the curb on the emer
gency board's activities, oleomaigar
Ine tax and chain store licenses,
election provisions and changes, ed
ucation bills, the banking code,
state building code, department of
agriculture bill, non-partisan Judi
ciary, child welfare provisions, and
aid from families and estates of In
mates of state Institutions.
The game code, commercial fish-
ng code and gamp commLwion
changes are also before the lcglMa
tors, along with lnsur:uice and drug
bills, tax collector orovir.lon for
counties and a bill rivaling with ab
stracting titles. These are aug
mented by the anti-trust proposal,
the gasoline cowboy revisions, cream
grading bills, licensing pawnbrokers,
and others pertaining to different
sections.

F
orum
Contributions to this col
umn most be confined to 300
words and signed by writer.
To the editor: I read !n the
Capital Journal of Feb. 10, that Mrs.
G. L. Bulland of Portland made the
remark that the people of Oregon
voted on the Prohibition Question
and voted overwhelmingly In favor
of It in 1914.
All right, dear lady, but remember
16 years Is a long stretch. Many
things happen In 16 years and many
things have happened since 1914.
For Instance thousands of young
men and women have come of vot
lng age since 1914 who never yet
had the chance to vote on the pro
hibition question. Is It fair to deny
them the right to express their opin
ion on this matter? If you prohls
are so sure that the majority of the
people are still dry, then why not
let It come to a vote and prove to
the wets that they are pulling the
wrong string 7
If prohibition had accomplished
what It Is claimed, most certainly
the majority of the people would
yet be In favor of prohibition. But
did It? It did not. The drys told us:
Abolish the saloon and you abolish
90 per cent of all the crime and law
leseness. How about it? Isnt It a
fact that we have more crime and
contempt of law now than we ever
had before?
They claimed that 4 or I years
of prohibition would see the prisons
and asylums 60 per cent empty and
taxes would be reduced about half.
Now look at the resultl Isn't It a
fact that all the prisons. Jails and
asylums of the country are filled to
capacity? Now they claim It Is be
cause laws are not enforced. If. with
all the money spent and all the
snooping and killing we've had they
haven't been able to enforce the
law, then It's a dead sure shot that
It never can and never will be en
forced.
What's the sense of trying to en
forco an unenforceable law? Why
attempt the impossible?
PETER WABER, Marion, Ore.
To the Editor It Is regrettable
that the people of Oregon who are
promoting the Tualatin bore are
meeting with difficulties, as there
is no question but this project Is the
most Important under consideration
to tlie state for its future welfare
and advancement, since the con
struction of the interstate bridge at
Vancouver.
The Tualatin valley, situated at
Portland's door, sheltered and over
looked by the hills of the "Rose
City," only awaits the opening of
the door, to bring the Joy of Its
sunktst skies for those who love the
open country space and the Imme
diate construction of the tunnel will
give needed employment.
Much may be said on merits of
the project, with rapid transporta
tion tlie need of the hour, bringing
adjacent many towns nearer, such
as Hillsboro, Beaverton to Oregon's
metropolis, this work when con
structed will be a permanent Im
provement, while besides It will
cause the erection of many country
homes, which also will give needed
employment.
This Is an opportune time to start
action, and the bill now before our
legislature should receive earnest
consideration and early passage.

davit of Mr. Esteb he doesn't say
that he stated at the time of our
conference that I at any time made
any statement to the effect I
would parole Young. He simply
says he was led to believe this
would be done.
"On the contrary tlie affidavit of
this fellow Grigsby states that I
said there was no need of spending
further money on the ease for a
new trial or an appeal.
"Tlie fact Is Grigsby came in and
said among other things that
Young had paid his attorney $1500
and had received a telephone call
from the attorney that It he want
ed anything further done he would
have to come up and bring ow
with him. Notnmj was said about
a motion for a new-trial. I said if
he would make the application for
parole he could have his name
entered as attorney and make ap
Dllcatlon himself.
"I see no reason for taking any
further action in the case. I have
personal knowledge of what was
sold at that time aud some of the
statements here are absolutely or
lnferentlally untrue. The verdict of
the Jury was binding on me. It Is
not a case tor parole. It Is a case
of moral perversion and not one of
a young man where a parole might
do him some good. It would do no
good In this case. The motion lor
a new trial Is denied."
