4 MEASURES
GO ON BALLOT
NEXT ELECTION
Four measures will be on the bal
lot at the state-wide special election
January 31, 1936, according to David
OUara, manager of the elections
division of the state department.
Locally, however, cities may have
many other questions on a separate
ballot.
The state questions will be:
1. A two per cent tax on the gross
Income from retail sales to finance
old age pensions and other social
security. The levy, enacted by the
special legislative session, was re
ferred to the voters by house and
senate.
2. The student fee law passed by
the last regular session and refer
red by petition. The law was Il
legally repealed by the recent spe
cial session. The law allows state In
stitutions of higher education to
collect up to $15 per year In fees
from each student.
3. The September primary bill
passed by the regular session will:
a referendum clause. The law
would change the date of the pri
mary election from the third Friday
In May to the first Friday after the
first Monday In September, and stop
the election by the people of na
tional committeemen and women of
political parties. They would be
nominated by their state central
committees and eleoted at the na
tional conventions, to which Uie
election of delegates by the people
would also be stopped.
4. A constitutional amendment
empowering the legislature to set
the pay of Its members, another pro
posal of the regular session. Now
paid $3 per day for 40 days of a
regular and 20 days of a special
session, the senators and representa
tives want the right to raise their
pay themselves. ,
Six Initiative measures on file with
the Secretary of State Snell can
not be completed In time to get on
the special ballot -
They provide for compulsory re
call elections, a state bank, a state
power act,-limited commercial fish
ing In the Rogue river, prevent any
restriction of truthful advertlslnv
and regulate the sale and dealing
in motor vehicle fuel.
The special election will cost the
state $16,000 and the counties $50,
000, O'Hara said.

election boards in Oregon there must

GRANGE STARTS
NEW FIGHT FOR
MEAT RAISERS
Sacramento, Nov. 21 (P) The Na
tional grange began a fight for a
fair spread between railroad rates
on fresh meat of packing house
products and livestock in the ter
ritory west of the Rocky Mountains
yesterday.
The action was taken in the adop
tion of a resolution by Ray W. QUI.
state master of Oregon.
It pointed out the Interstate com
merce commlsison in 1032 set rates
for livestock at one-half the rates
upon fresh meat and packing house
products, giving a wide market
range to stockmen in the western
half of the United States.
Lately, It charged, "the packers
have been able to high pressure the
railroads Into reducing rates upon
fresh meat and packing products
from Spokane to Fuget Sound and
Portland without making corres
ponding reductions on the rates up
on livestock."
As a result, the resolution contin
ued, livestock has been bottled up
at Spokane; fresh meat and pack
ing house products have flooded
the Puget Sound markets, and the
price of livestock has been "forced
down" throughout the mountain
Pacific Northwest. .
The grange proposed to the ICC
that no rates upon fresh meat or
packing house products should be
cut from the Rocky Mountains west

without "corresponding reductions"
in livestock rates and that any dif
ferentials between the competing
products which are less than av
erage "should be Increased to normal."
The grange also went on record
as favoring financial responsibility
laws for automobile drivers and
legislation fixing drunken driving at
a felony.
Opposition also was expressed to
legislation placing Interstate truck
and bus regulation under the ICO,
proposed bills to put American ships
in foreign commerce and on Inland
waterways under the domination ot
the ICC and a bill "which Is intend
ed to nullfy the long and shoit
