Monday Evening, January 5, 192 Pago Two TII EUGENE GUABD P RIMARY Li REVISION PLAN A. L. Mills, President Of Di rect Primary League, Lists Provisions Post-Primary Nominating Conventions Provided In Proposal rOUTLAND, Ore., Jnn. 5. (Spc- ciul). A plan designed to amend aud supplement the present Oregon direct primary law has been formulated by A. h. Mills, president ot the Direct l'riuiary league. The measure will be introduced in the sennto and house at the coming session of tho state legislature, and it is hoped that if it passes, that body will refer it to tho people. 'l'he new program would provide for post-primary nominating conven i tionB in certain cases, and comes us result of a speech mode by Sir, i Mills at the chamber of commerce lust 1 apring, in which he severely criticized what were termed undername oy nroducts of the primary. Later he whb .besieged with requests to frame ' amendments calculated to remove noma of the abuses of the system. 40 Par Cent Vote. Failure of a candidate in the pri i msry to receive 40 per cent of the total voto cast at the primary would, under the proposed amendment, mean that he is not nominated,' and nomi nations in such cases would be made by convention. , . Other salient features ot the pro posed bill are as follows: Post-primary county and state con ventions to be held to make such nom inations when the primary shows that one or more nominations were not made under the 40 per cent provision, and also to adopt platforms. Unsuccessful candidates in pri maries can bo candidates in the con vention by aerving notice; others can bo placed in nomination from tho floor Large Membership.

The Fugene-Klainnth Falls rut-off skirts the western edge of this great timber lone. To resell Klamath Falls from llend by the easterly edge of the tim ber nailing to be cut into lumber, would put the northern Hues in easier striking distance to Uskeview. From Lakeview to San Francisco, tue northern llne would have access lo San Francisco and Salt Lake city via the Western Pacific over the Nevada, California and Orrgon line, which however, would have to be standard ised.

UP) The French memorandum legnrd.ng pay ment of 1' ranee s war debt to the United States was transmitted today by Secretary. Hughes to Secretary Mellon for his "personal and private information." Inasmuch as the document was pre- aented by M. Clementel, French finance minister to AmbHsaador ller rick, as nn unofficial and private com munication, state department offi- cals would make no comment on the suggestions embodied iu it. They did su.v, however, thst "it was hoped the iemeuel memorandum might bo innde the basis of a follow up." .. CONFERENCE PLANS READY l'AKIS, Jan. 5.

Lugou, (be reguiur reparation com mission observer tor the United Suites has served to strengthen the puimc bei.el! that the deot problem will be a subject of unottie.al conver sations and it i hoped tbese will help Dnng a solution appreciably 'nearer. Tue thorniest problem before the coniereme proper is that of the American isuaru in the Duwea plan yield. While i'Vance, Italy and liei gi um admit Unit the United States lias a rigbt in equity if not in luw, to snare in the proceeds, Great' Britain denies mica rigbt. At the sume time, those allies winch aduut the Ameri can claim nsk that their own per centages be not affected, thereby opening up an extremely important uuestiou, namely the widening of the scope of application ot the Duwea plan. British Meet Great importance is uttached to the meeting today of the British cabinet and it is hoped some arrangement may be devised by his majesty's ministers, which will permit settlement of the difficulty over theAmericau claim. Should the British refuse to modify their attitude, it Is thought probable the dispute will be sent to The Hague court for final pronouncement. This solution would not be welcome in French circles, which believed that, while the United States would consent to submit it's case to the court's rul ing, It would do ao reluctantly. It is confidently expected that the other points before the conference vfii he settled satfttfactoriiy, thanks to tho competent preparatory work of the experts. Tremier Herriot and Finance Minister Clementel have been holding daily conferences in an endea vor to smooth the path for the con ferees. Some of the delegates have already arrived, notably rre.mler Bratiano of Koumnnia. and M. Stovanovitch, the Jugo-Slav representative with a staff of assistants.

The sen ate launched today into the postal pay increase issue under an agreement putting aside the Muscle Shoals uues tions and renuiriuff a vote on Presi dent L'oolidge's veto of the postal measure, passed last session, by Dot later than 4 p. in. tomorrow. Before the senate also is the admin Istretlon bill providing for increases iu postal rates along with the postal salary increases and consideration of the veto was complicated by this tac tor. Senator Moses, republican, New Hampshire, in charge of the rate bill, informed the senate Saturday, after Senator Norris, republican, Nebraska, had blocked a move for immediate consideration of that measure, that he would seek its adoption today. Kegardlcss of the action on this measure, it was considered likely the senate will vote on the veto of the salary bill. Before the vote can be taken, however, action on a motion by Senator Sterling, republican, South ilakota, to recommit tbc measure, is in order. Favorable action on this mo tiim would have the effect of sustain ing the veto. , SALEM, Ore., Jan. 5.
