Faced with the threat of the governor to veto any attempt to add to the direct tax levy against real property, the com-1 mittee planned on making special levies, including taxes on cigarettes and tobacco, a gross earnings tax on public utilities diversion of part; of the fees collected by semi-public commissions to the general fund. The governor told the committee that he would veto such taxes. As a result the financial program was in a tangle when the legislature adjourned Sa: urday and senate and bouse organ ization leaders planned to frame a definite policy during the week end and drive it through.

Accepting the challenge of th house, Governor Pierce throw bis vetc of the $100,000 appropriation voted for the support of the public service commission into the arena Saturday afternoon. Primary Measures, Defeated. The Mills bill to amend the direct primary law, providing for post-primary nominating conventions, was do-! feated In the senate. It reoeived 10 1 votes and 20 votes were east against it. This ends the proposal to cure some of the defects In the primary law.

Traffic Veto Overridden. The senate and house overrode the veto of Governor Pierce of Senator Magladry's bill providing for the em ployment of not to exceed 25 state traffic officers under the secretary of state and Increasing the salaries of these operatives.

The state traf fic officers would receive $125 a month for the first year's service, $150 a month durins the second vear. and $175 after entering upon three years of service. Governor Pierce, in his veto nies- j sage, .contended that it was the duty of the executive department to enforce the laws of the state and that the policing of the highways was net a proper function for the secretary of state to perform. Contending that since he has been In the governor's office there has be. n presented no bill as far reaching in its possible effeot, and as detrimental to the general welfare as house bill 152, Governor Pierce sent in his ve'e of that measure introduced by Melndl of Multnomah, designed to give the power of condemning water power to railroads.
