BOARD SOUGHT
Recommendations that enforce
ment of game laws be returned to
lfs status previous to the creation

Other recommendations were: thai
setting of the opening and closing
dates of hunting and fishing sea
sons and the opening and closing
of streams be delegated to the game
commission; that there be three
members of the commission instead
of five, the members to be appoint
ed fro the vnrious congressional dis

that the state of Washington had
Invited the commission to help es
tablish such a plan there.
Arthur Moulton represented the
Isaac Walton league In requesting
that the state should not raid the
funds collected from licenses and
other fees, but leave It for the fur
therance of game work.
Matt Corrlgan, chairman of the
commission, spoke In favor of using
monies formerly paid in bounties on
predatory animals to pay experi

The committee asked Japan to
withdraw other objections to the
plan for settlement If the league
agreed with Japan that the United
States and Russia should not be
Invited to participle In a concilia
tion. Japan also objected to the res
olutions declaring its activity In
Manchura was not legitimate self
defense and that the inhabitants of
that territory did not support the
Manchukuo government.
Preparation of the report of the
proceedings of the committee is
authorized by article 15 of the lea
gue of nations covenant, which pro
vides that when members of the
league become involved in any dis
pute likely to lead to n- rupture,
and when that dispute Is not sub
mitted to arbitration, each side
shall submit to the league council
statements of its case. The council
then shall try to affect a settlement
but If the settlement is no obUMncd
the council shall publish a report
containing a statement of the facts
and of recommendations considered
Just and proper.
The committee did not close the
door entirely against consillation
If any possibility of a friendly set
tlement should appear subsequently,
thereby providing for any change
m japans attitude.
Suggestions for the projected re
port drafted by the league secre
tariat were circulated to permit
study of the question before Mon
day's debate.
Neither Japan nor China will
have any choice In deciding the
contents of the report or In Its
adoption by the assembly. It was
predicted that Its preparation prob
ably will cause much controversy

Dispatches from Tokyo placed ft

Japanese Instructions to Geneva. It
was announced there that the dele
gates had been directed to offer ac
ceptance of the league's compro

A government spokesman said,
however, that If the committee of
nineteen demanded a categorical
yes or no on the original concilia
tion plan Japan's answer would be
"no."

ed. Whether it will be Introduced
or not hinges, according to Its au
thors, upon the Immediate future
conduct of the offending officials.
Another resolution has also been
drafted. It would create a Joint
"cold storage" committee to which
would be referred all bills and other
proposals in any manner referring
to, connected with or Involved In
the quarrel between the governor
and treasurer. House and senate
leaders do not propose If they can
help It to have any "spite" bills ex
ploding on the floor until matters
of major importance have been dis
posed of.
Slight Indications of rifts In the
organization machinery of both
houses have been seen during the
past week, with a few individuals
seeking to assert themselves in de
fiance of recognized leadership, but
most of these exhibitions have been
nipped In the bud by more aggres
sive Uictlcs by President Kiddle of
the senate and Speaker Snell of
the house. Both of these leaders, to
gether with their aides are showing
evidence of a conviction that if the
big problems of the session are to
be dealt with In any satisfactory
manner the lawmakers themselves
will have to take the bull by the
horns and dig in.
One of the major developments of
the week along tills line Is the job
of straightening out, If possible, the
tangled condition of county affairs
over the state undertaken by Speak
er Snell and his committee on coun
ties and cities. Broadly the program
embraces the work of standardiz
ing and equalizing the salaries of
elective county officials over the
state. Tills particular assignment
was given to a sub-committee of the
committee on counties and cities by
Chairman Don Ryan of Clackamas
county. Ryan himself heads the
sub-committee and assisting him
are Representatives Herman, Sta
ples and McCornack. Right now
they are busy gathering data rela
tive to Uie salaries paid In each
county with a view to equalizing
them on a basis of population and
area.
Discrcpencles In the salaries of
sheriffs are being given particular
attention. Inasmuch as they arc the
most Inequitable.
Consolidation Is again looming
strong as a means of effecting econ
omies in stato government. Over In
the senate, at the suggestion of the
ways and means committee. Sen
ators Woodward, Dunne and others,
assisted by Representative Dam
mosch are drafting a bill, which
will probably go Into the hopper
early next week, to consolidate the
corporation department, the Insur
ance department and the dcjxirt
ment of banking into a single office
to be known as the department of
finance.
Representative Dammasch is also
working on a bill for early intro
duction which would incorporate
all of the various medical and
medical examining boards Into a
single board of public health. To
day Dammasch was in Portland
conferring on the bill with the var
ious groups which would be effec
ted. Both of these measures are said
to have the approval of the admin
istration and enactment of both is
strongly Indicated.
Another matter which Is expec
ted to receive early legislative at
tention Is that of once more or
ganizing the state fair board inde
pendently of the department of
agriculture. It is known that the
administration has not been satis
fied with the manner in which the
fair has operated- under the de
partment of agriculture, and that

PROPOSAL LAID
BEFORE GROUP
Details of the proposed extension
of the Mt. Jefferson primitive area
to Include a district of some 34,700
acres of virgin territory south and
west of the original plot were laid
before a group of persons Interested
in maintaining a natural condition
around the more than 100 lakes
which are embraced In the region,
at the chamber of commerce Friday
night. The local group withheld
taking action on the plan as pre
sented deferring any conclusion
until the scheme has been presented
to Albany sportsmen and lovers of
the out-of-doors,
Exclusion of Marion and Pamella
lakes from the proposed primitive
district evoked considerable discus
sion. Objection to the Inclusion of
these two bodies of water has been
voiced by persons who wish to erect
cabins and maintain camps on their
shores.
F, W. Cleator, recreation engineer
of the national forest service stated
Friday night that the proposed en
larged area would contain possibili
ties for the best recreational district
In trie state. He also told of steps
which would be taken to prevent
the destruction of the natural
charm of the district. Strict regu
lation as to road building, cutting
of timber and frazing would be In
effect.
Establishment of the area and
the manner In which It would be
accomplished were outlined by F. V.
Horton, Portland, assistant regional
forester.
Friday night's conference was
presided over by B. E. Sisson, presi
dent of the chamber of commerce.
Participating actively In the dis
cussion were Mayor McKay, County

Truck and bus legislation is reach
ing the fever stage with two pro
posals already in the hopper, and
every Indication Is that the fight
will be over whether taxation of
these vehicles shall be on a ton
mile or gross receipts tax basis.
The Lynch bill, embodying the ton
mile plan, Is estimated to increase
receipts from trucks and busses by
approximately $500,000 a year.
The proposal of the Allied Truck
Owners, Inc., which has been re
pared by Ralph Staehll of Port
land, will be Introduced In the
house Monday and provides for a
grot receipts tax. It would, It Is
estimated, return to the state about
$1,260,000, or about what the trucks
and busses arc now paying toward
highway expenses.
The Lynch bill is the one favor

A third bill embracing most of the
features of a model bill drafted
by national highway organizations

Cherry Outlook Held
Promising By Shinn
After Eastern Trip
That placing cherries in brine will go a long way toward
preventing heavy loss to growerH through wet weather con
ditions, was the opinion expressed Saturday forenoon by Rob
ert Hiunn, manager of tne Hoyai
Ann Cherry Growers' association in
addressing members of the group at
the y. M. O. A. Shinn, recently
returned from a trip through the
east where he contacted many buy
ers and processors, said there was
little to base future price predic
tions at this time, although the blc
bulk of last year's product had been
disposed of. Two years' supply of
cherries which some firms Import
ed from Italy prior to the raising
of the tariff, has been placed in
trade channels, Shinn said.
Satisfactory results from the asso
ciation's venture in the brining
business were accomplished last year
although the venture was a new
one. While In the east Shinn found
buyers and processors were pleased
RAILROADS PROFIT
FROM EXPOSITION
Although nearly six months will
elapse before the official opening of
the Century of Progress exposition
in Chicago June 1, the railroads al
ready are anticipating a tremendous
volume of passenger business and
are preparing to offer excellent
transportation at reasonable rates.
E. P. Roberts, city passenger agent
of the Oregon Electric and Spokane,
Portland and Seattle railway sys
tems, said today.
These lines will offer, effective
May 15th, a round trip fare of $77.76
to Chicago with a return limit of
10 days In addition to the date of

to prove attractive to a number of

G. N. or N. P. to St. Paul and the
C. B. and Q to Chicago on the

Builder.
Seventeen foreign countries have
officially signified their Intention
of placing exhibits at the fair, the
irisn Free state being the latest
addition to the list.
Every building will be ready and
every exhibit will be in place by the
time the gates are thrown open
June 1, according to reports from
Chicago which Indicate the con
struction schedule Is virtually two
months ahead of time.

CURRENCY PLAN
CAINS IN SALEM
The third week's experience with
local currency finds the list of ac
cepting business houses increased
to 61 from a beginning of 43. Gro
cery stores accepting currency hava
Increased from 4 to 17.
Thirty seven men have bcrn given
135 days employment. Orders for
the necessaries of life have been
honored to the amount of $184 and
currency totaling $128 Issued.
Businessmen were cautious nl
first but invariably invito Increas
ing currency patronage.
There is a tendency and it was
anticipated to hold the currency
and send it In too large amounts
to the first available merchant ac
cepting it. The currency commit
tee urges all to use It as small
money as much as possible. Each
member of the force spends a little
money every day. As far as this
currency will buy what they want,
let them use it. It increases the vol
ume of business for their employer.
The thought of humiliation will
scarcely affect any who appreciate
the decreasing burden of money
drives and that may easily and
quickly be their own in these dayt
of vanishing jobs.
"Our currency plan .is new" says
the committee. "We all have to
learn how to use it,' Other places
are 'way ahead of us and It Is
spreading In every direction.
"These are strenuous times and
bid fair to be worse. Every one of
a man's size Is things and doing
his utmost to be of real assistance.
This currency goes first to relieve
unemployment. The situation is pit
iable. Relief agencies are doing
their best but are not one-third ef
ficient. Haphazard contributions of
both money and service are hope
lessly lacking. Every one of exper
ience knows It.' This currency plan
is rapidly taking first place all over
the country."
