Salem. Unable to complete its
labors within the 10-day period pre
scribed by the constitution the legis
lature extended the session over into
this week. The chief reason for ex
tending the session was the failure
to pass the necessary appropriation
bills and frame legislation to provide
the additional revenue' required for
the next two years.
Members will receive no p.ay for
their time this week hut compensa
tion for the house and senate staffs,
which includes everybody down to the
stenographers and pages continues un
til adjournment sine die.
Although the ways and means com
mittee worked hard to evolve a pro
gram to meet the financial needs of
the state for the coming two years,
the demands for money, far outstrip
ped the funds available. 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.
Big Deficit Faced.
Revised figures having to do with
the appropriations authorised by the
joint ways and means committee of,
the bouse and senate for the current
blennium indicate that these allow

reported by the statu budget commis
sion, it probably will be necessary for
the legislature to make up the de
ficit resulting from the over-approprla-'
tions by levying additional taxes.
The house ot representatives hurl
ed defiance at Governor Pierce when
it refused to suspend the rules and
place on final passage a house bill
providing for the placing ot a tax on
public utilities in accord with a de
mand made by the governor upon the
ways and means committee.
Service Body Act Vetoed.
Governor Pierce was charged with
threatening the legislature to veto the
appropriation bill for the public serv
ice commission unless the house, un
der suspended rules, rushed through
the bill which placed a gross earnings
tax on public utilities to yield $80,000
a year.
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.
The bouse killed the measure intro
duced by the Jackson couuty delega
tion, which provided for a pre-primary
county convention scheme through a
Chung? In the present law.
In the face of open opposition by
Governor Pierce, the resolution Intro
duced in the senate by Senator Dennis
was adopted by the house by a vote ol
34 to 24 and will go on the ballot at
the next general election for ralfflea
tion of the people. declares it as
state policy that M Income tax or In
heritance tax shall be levied and may
not be enacted for 15 years.
Forced Auto Insurance Killed.
A house bill tj-ovldtng for compul
sory auttHiioblle liability insurance to
br bandied by the state industrial ac
cident commission, was chloroformed
In the house by Ind'Uulte postpone
ment.
Another bouse bill which, on Its face,
called for a uniform set of casualty In
surance rates in Oregon, was also In
definitely postponed.
Indefinite, pos'pomnvnt also was
tut rate of a house bill setting the
salmon catch limit by trolling on thi
lower Hogue river.
After protests had been made by
Senators Mj and Joseph tin serial'
r-fuel to approve Representative Or
mer's bill providing for regular pay
da8 in certain employments, and
again referred the measure to Ibe com
mittee on revision of lws.
Under the provision of a bill ap
proved by the senate It would be un
lawful for any p rson, firm, corpora
lion or organization to circulate so
called campaign tickets prior to an
election unless the persons whose
names appear on the tickets have
given their written consent.
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.
Under the provisions of the act the
chief inspector for the state motor ve
hicle department would receive a max
imum of $275 a month as against the
present salary of $200. 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.
Collect Unpaid Income Tax.
A bill sponsored by the bouse com
mittee on assessment and taxation and
providing for the collection of unpaid
or delinquent income taxes under tlie
act of 1 023 was pasted. Enforcement
of this act, it is claimed, will result in
the collection of approximately $1,000,-
000 In income taxes remaining unpaid
at this time.
The house passed a senate bill pro
viding for Increases in the salaries of
the seven state supreme court judges
from $5250 to $7500 a year.
There will be no change in high
school courses of study to introduce
penmanship, bookkeeping and arith
metic, as proposed in the Eddy bill,
for the house killed It in short ord- r.
Despite the vigorous fight made by
Senator Garland in behalf of his bill
to prohibit the advertising of cigar
ettes in Oregon through the medium
of posters, paintings or signs, the sen
ate defeated the measure.
Bill Doubles Dry Funds,
Defense of the enforcement ot the
prohibition laws, but denunciation of
the conduct of the state prohlbillon
office under the administration of
George L. Cleaver, featured the discus
sion of a bill introduced in the senate
by the alcoholic traffic committee pro
viding that the funds of the depart
ment should, be Increased from $25,000
1 to $60,000 annually and for other
equally important changes in the exist
ing prohibition statutes. The bill was
passed, 27 to 3.
Only nine votes were mustered In
opposition to a house bill providing
for the establishment of the Southern
Oregon normal school at Ashland when
