ing tno yoar iza, according to an
nouncement made hero tonight by
the state tax commission. Approx
imately t2.038.431.72 of this
amount comes within the six per
cent tax limitation amendment
nnd was levied by the state tax
commission. The remaining $5,-
loz.avg.ur represents special tax
levies made mandatory hv law.
The 1926 levy is .$292,000 less than

A summary prepared by the
state tax commission tonight
showed that the tax for the year
1926 within the six per cent limit
ation is approximately tU5,483 in
excess of that in 1925. The special
'vies show a decrease, of approxi
mately $400,000 when compared
f!h theno levies for 1925. This de
cease was made poosible, it was
said, because of the action of the
last legislature in reducing the
levy for the soldier's bonus funds
for one half million. . The result
ant reduction In this tax for 1926
is $542,268 compared with that for
1926.
Surplus Fluid 'Held
Despite the levy, authorized by
the state tax commission there
will be a deficit - of $480,000 to
meet tho actual needs of the stae
in 1926. This deficit will result
from restrictions Imposed by the
six per cent limitation amendment.

governmental functions during the
-year 1926, other than those cov
ered by speolal mlllage levies. Were
estimated at $5,194,198.68. This
amount la partly offset bv an item

SALEM,. Ore., Deo. 11. State- .
ments relative to the administra
tion of Frank C. Bramwell, state
superintendent of banks, were
made to the state banking board
today by representatives or the
Portland National bank, formerly
the Broadway bank. The bank ac
cuses Bramwell ot arbitrarily re
fusing to grant It a charter as a
reserve depository for state banks
and thereby discriminating against
it in an unfair manner. . .
Members of the board -pressed
the bank representatives to -say
plainly whether they were demand
ing Bramwell'a removal. To this.
in reply to a point-blank question
by Secretary of State Kozer, Will
B. Haines, president of the-bank,
replied: ..... , -
"If you will be patient you will
soon know what -we want, -If you
give us time wq will prove every
thing we have said and more too,
before-we get out of this room.
There are other matters that I
could bring up -in. the same con
nection, -but I cannot betray the
confidence of . those who have
talked, with .me on the subject.";
. -i ; Davia Is Silent .
John ' H. Davis, cashier of the
Portland .bank, was asked -by-, a ,
newspaper man'after the noon ad
journment, if the bank was, going
to.- demand Bramwell'a removal. -
, can t -tauc .now, ' .- he , said.
'Yo'n'll- see this afternoon."-' .'
' Bramwell has not yet. made his
reply;, but indicated. that he .would
portable to answer the accusations
of his assailants.: .
' r. Haines told of an examlnaT
tion of bis bank that was made by
the-' Btate- department- soon after
the- failure of the State-Bank of
Portland, which' had - caused : a
small- run on the -Broadway - bank,'
and. said tho examination was ob
jectionable in a number of ways.;
v-"Everi If our application to' be-, -come,
a : reserve depository is
granted," said Haines, . "we - feel
that banks who deposit their. :re
eerves - with, us are going to,' b
penalized, and we demand ' a
change in the attitude of the stats,
department." . . - - -
Depository Is Wanted '
'' In reply to a question by State
Treasurer Kay, J. N. Hart, attor
ney for the bank replied that the
purpose of the -hearing was .to
flhd out :"why the Portland Na
tional bank has not been made ..a
depository for state funds, why
state banks hive been refused per
mission to deposit' their reserves
w,lth 'us' and .why we are being
discriminated against."
- Hart read a series of letters
that passed between him and
Bramwell in which he insisted on
knowing why permission to servo.
aB-a. reserve -depository had been
refused. the . bank. He accused
Bramwell - of, having evaded a di
rect reply and said ."we demand
to know now." -
Hart ; Upholds Power '
.Secretary Kozer brought up the
question whether tho banking
board' had Jurisdiction over the
question and asking it it were not
exclusively in tho hands ot the
superintendent ot banks. Hart re
plied that In his opinion tho crea
ture was not greater than tho cre
ator and that he believed- the
board had advisory control of the
superintendent. State Treasurer
Kay referred to the new banking
code, saying that it took from the
board .about all the power it had
except that ot appointing a bank
superintendent, granting bank
'dhartors and approving charters.
." Superintendent Bramwell . ex--pltned
that the new code doeB not
change the authority of the board,
lut that the granting of charters '
as .-reserve depositors has always
been discretionary with the super
intendent. ,
' "It's a damn poor law," com--iftented
Governor Pierce. "A very
poor law in this day and age." -.'"Have
you any other evidence
to. present?"" asked Kay, "in sup
port of statemonts that you havo
mado that would tend to show that
Bramwell has been unfair, arbi
trary or incompotent and that
might cause the board to . con
sider his removal?" ".
. At this Bramwoll wanted to
know- It ho Was on trial.
"That's What I want to know?"
said Kay.
"I think they havo a right to go
ahead and present all they have,"
added Bramwell. "Then tho board
can call mo In and hear -my Bide."
Several ftouritry hankers wore.
Introduced' by 'Mr. Haines' to tontl-'
fy lri bohalf of tho Portland Na
tional. Thoy testified that thoy. had
been advised not to deposit their
reBorvea.-wlth- that bank, and tho
representative of a bank at ner
vals said Bramwoll had advised
him that his reserve would not bo
counted if doponltod -with tho
Portland National bank. ' " '
J. II, Davia, cashier ot the Port
land Notional, assortod that his
bank's out of town deposits had
