ter plumbers from jf to another
the license of electrical dealers from
$5 to and another would provide
for a boiler inspection fee of $ft and
uufired pressure vessel inspection fee
of $2.
Norvell said he couldn't see the jus
tire in a plumber doing $1000 worth
of business in a year paying the sume
fee as one doing a $50,000 business,
lie fuvored a gruduuted scale. He pro -seiilULive'cjiiuth
of Alvrion county op
posed the bills in principle as build
ing up beureaucrucy,
"The license proposed Is more in
the interest of the bureau than of
the people paying the fee," said Hniith.
Representative Angell, chairman of
a sub-committee on the bills, had rec
ommended thut they be introduced as
committee measures. To this Senator
Ntrayer objected, declaring he wanted
to examine them persouaJly before de
ciding whother he would support
them. Representative Potter was of
the same opinion. Representative
VVenthersjuoon branded them as sub
terfuges, but Senator Jlell defended
them, declaring that professions gen
erally want to be regulated. Senator
Jones made a motion that caused
them to be tabled until jopiea could be
furnished the membera of the com
mittee. No Appropriations

040, also for the state bureau of
miming and child hygiene, which
seeks $24,000. Ir. Btricker told the
committee that Oregon has the lowest
child death rate in the United States,
but that preventable diseases cost the
state (40,000,000 annually.
J. I). Mlckle, state dairy and food
commissioner, who hopes to make his
department self-sustaining by a fee
Imposed on rests urn Jits, estimated
that a $10 fee would raise $U&,0U0.
Representatives Angell and Smith and
Senator Kiddle were appointed as a
sub-committee to work with Mlckle In
preparing the bill.

resentative Steward reported on

Waverly home where It la said that
many babies were sick, and that one
of the nurses Informed the committee
that a fire would be sure to cause

EFFORTS Oil BILL
SALEM, Ore., Jan. 30. p Sen
ator Joe Dunne of Multnomah and
Columbia counties told the senate
roads and higii.vii.VH comim ur. ,.
terduy just what he think of the
leglHlature and of ft citizen's efforts
to aceomnliKh anything by being a
member of It.
Dunne, who Is e member of the
committee, wanted ft favorable report
on the Me taker and Ilobison house
concurrent resolution directing the
state highway commission to widen
the lower Columbia river highway.
"I am Columbia couuty'a only rep
resentative In the senate," said
Dunne, "and I wuut to get this reso
lution adopted."
"Never mind, Joe," said Senator
Kiddle, "you'll be re-elected anyway."
"That's all the good it will do me,"
Dunne retorted. "A man wastes his
time coming here. It's just like a boy
spitting ugninut the wind. It all
blows back on him and musaes him all
up."
Over Dunne's proteat the highways
committee voted to take all measures
that direct the highwuy commission
to do certain things and consider them
later at one time.
Dunne is also making a fight to
ge Multnomah couuty'a share of the
state market road fund all turned over
to that county. In the ane-mill-
market road law there is clause In
cluded particularly to keep Multnomah
county, because of Its much higher as
sessed valuation than other counties,
from receiving too great a Bhare of
the fund. This provides that no
county in any one year shall receive
more than 10 per cent of the total
one-mill levy In the 8 Late. All over
that amount Is apportioned among
other counties. Multnomah is the
only county to which the provision ap
plies. Dunne got little encouragement
from the other members of the com
mittee. He said he would draft the
bill anyway, and there was a tentative
agreement between h'im and Senator
Klepper that ft would be made a
Multnomah deleRatlon bill.
Senator Klepper will prepare a bill
thut- would make available to the nub
ile the information contained on motor
vehicle accident reports filed with
officers and sheriffs.
