About 50 ot the delinquents paid t lu. amounts due the state in the five days that have elapsed since Sheriff Hurlburt received the list from the tax commissioner at Salein and thus escaped " having their names filed. Failure to pay tho tax was oc casioned by the attack made the law in the courts, which finally was taken to the state supreme court, which decided that, despite repeal of tho state income tax. le'w in 1.L'4. the taxes for 13 should he paid.

JtepreHentatlvo Tucker, IJemo rat, Virginia,-an avowed dry, in itiated a move designed to prevent repetition of the much-debated hotel Mayflower Incident In which dry agent masqueraded under the name of a member of con gress to obtain evidence at a cost of more than $!f00 to tho govern in eat. Amendment Proposed Tho vehicle employed by Mr. Tucker was an amendment to the annual treasury-pOHlofflco supply bill, which carries funds for dry law enforcement for the next fiscal year. A vote on the proposal was deferred until tomorrow. An amendment, which was di rected at a section of the hill mak ing $250,000 available for pro curement of evidence In tho next lineal year, would prohibit the use of "fraud, deceit or falsehood" in he expenditure of any part oi tnis sum. Chairman- Madden of the ap propriations committee, which re oorted the bill, asked if tho bill was designed lo prevent the pur chase of evidence.

Kx nr.inir . note of optimism rela tive to the Industrial conditions in Oregon for the coming yeur, . n.. Gram, state labor commissioner, in n Htntement made here today. declared that all lines of industry in tho state will show as much, if not greater activity during 192G as they did during i:-o. "Tnere is every i eu&uu iu mc Hove." Mr. Gram paid, "that the Itimlinr Inrl 11-Htl' V Will nrOdllCO as nnieh manufactured product In 192G aB in 4925... The lumber' op erators have faith that 1926 will he a big building year and that pro duction will Increase to meet the demands of a depleted market and stocks caused by cold weather in some of the producing sections." The belief was expressed by Mr. Gram that structural building in Oregon for l!'-6 will equal that of the past year, although, lie says, several estimates place the volume of building construction for the next year slightly under that reached in 1925. "Highway con struction in Oregon in 1926 will not exceed that of 1925, and possibly will be less," the labor commis sioner said. "Present Indications aro that the state will expend ap proximately $6,000,000 on state highway work in 1926." "Owing to the fact that many new families have located on farms in Oregon during the past season and the generally, good prices re ceived for farm products, it was predicted that a ten per cent in crease in acreage planted to va rious crops would not be an in flation of the situation for 1926," the statement says. E POUCYJl MOSUL Only Four Members Oppose Great Britain's Action In Oil Territory , LABOR ITTElPTS DELAY Withdrawal Follows Move to Obstruct Voting AMITY IN TURKEY AIM Premier Mnkoa Appeal for United Country In Order to Carry Out Seltlement Plana in Re cent Dispute (By The Associated Press) ! LONDON. Dec. 21. The house I of commons tonight approved the; governments Mosul policy "in principle" with only four adverse votes. The prime minister's motion ashing such approval was adopt-: ed, 239 to four. The laborltes, however, with-1 drew from the house, after em ploying obstructionist tactics and obliging the government to disar- I range its business and delay pro-1 rogation by another day. During his speech, the prime minister made an important announcement that he would meet the Turkish ambassador tomorrow to begin ne gotiations covering tho entire ques tion of Mosul. Great Britain, he declared, was anxious for Irak to live in neighborly amity with Tur key and in pursuance of this policy he would discuss with the Turkish ambassador an agreement regard ing the d'sputed territory. "For this wo need the support of a united country,'' said the pre mier, "and I wouid appeal to those who have criticised our policy so vehemently to consider whether the prospect of a peaceful settle ment would be improved or dam aged by agitation which consist ently misrepresents the policy we have followed and which is calcu lated to create doubt abroad) both as to our resolution to honor our obligations and as to the sincerity of our desire for peace." The laborites threatened to keep the house sitting through the night to prevent discussion of the Mosul motion and were in process of making good their threat when the government resorted to counter tactics, postponing tho scheduled business until tomorrow. It was then that the labor party left the nouse as a protest. MrBaldwln said that the rit ish taxpayer should be relieved of burdens on account of Irak at the earliest possible date: This took the edge off the criticisms and when decision was called only four members en ered the lobby against the government. Most of the liberals abstained from voting and the outcome of the division caused ministerial laughter. TEXT. BOOKS DISCUSSED CIjASH OVER SUTTON' BII,L , HELD IX SENATE (Fly Tlio Associated Pres.)

' Marked by a clash over . the Sut ton bill to amend the present law relating to county boards of edu cation at one o'clock with 26 senators present, the number be ing later Increased to 30. The bouse convened at 1:30 .6'clock with 88 members answering- roll calls. More members were pres ent In each house than had been anticipated. The senate calendar contained e.'ght bills up for final action while the house proceeded with the reading of the lengthy auto code. Senator Robert Grass, who has Introduced a bill providing that school books be chosen by the state board of education and print ed by the state, objected to Sena tor Suton's bUI on the grounds that It would be in conflict with It's bill, provided the latter were passed. Mention of the state print ing bill, which is still in commit tee, drew from Senator Sutton the charge that "politics was being Injected ' Into a strictly school Issue."
