While the matter of liquidation is handled mainly through the Insurance commission er's office in the end It also reach es the circuit court, or many phases of it and the clerk's office has been literally swamped the past few weeks with documents raining down on it in connection with such liquidations. There are now nine of these liqui dations before the court and March has been set as date for the first hearing on any of them, this being in connection with the National Surety company, one of the smaller companies. A number of the clerk's force stated that Indicative of how these liquidation proceedings have added to the work of the clerk's office, one of the alone being equivalent to 15 ordinary law suits, this one includ ing 15 defendants. Others are small er but in each case a great amount of correspondence is entailed and while fees received are heavy, as well as welcome, these liquidations pro vide probably one of the largest pieces of additional work shoved onto the clerk's office for some time. Continuation of Coast Bridge Tolls From page One would be effected through the issu ance of 3'& percent general obliga tion bonds to amortize the bridge loan, in the place of the 4 per cent bonds which have been hypothicat ed with PWA. The savings in interest on the bonds alone would be more than equal to the difference between the annual interest and principal charge on the PWA bridge loan and the cost of maintaining present ferry service along the coast highway. On the cost of the coast bridge PWA is already contributing $1. 400,000 as an outright grant, which would be increased to e total of $5,600,000 if the compromise pro posal Is accepted. Governor Martin announced fol lowing the conference that he would join with the highway commission in presenting the new proposal to the Washington authorities, and would seek to have the additional money needed for reconstruction of the Columbia river highway added to the allocation for Bonneville.

The forceful-speaking Virginian took the floor before a crowded sen ate chamber to argue the adminis tration's position against the Mc Carran amendment lo require pay ment of prevailing local wages in attempting to give work to 3,500,000 employables. Glass solemnly warned the senate of the danger of federal credit from expanding the sum in the bill, which he contended would be inevitable if the prevailing wage was paid. The Virginian said the nations banks hold $15,300,000,000 of feder al securities and a 10 percent drop in their value would make 90 per cent of the banks insolvent.
