Ad
Salam.— The legislature began the
third week of the session with all the
big constructive legislation yet to re
ceive attention. However, It Is ex
pected a start will be made this week
In shaping important measures of
state-wide Interest, inasmuch as two
consolidation and several Income tax
bills have been offered. These two
subjects promise to engross the at
tention of the legislature during the
ensuing weeks of the session.
Two bills providing for the con
solidation of state departments and
commissions are now before the sen
ate. One offered by Senator Hall pro
vides for four departments of the state
government, while the other, sponsor
ed by Senator Johnson and Represent
ative Carkln, would segregate the
state's activities Into six departments.
The merits of these measures will be
discussed at public hearings this week
by the committee on county and state
officers.

seems to be a strong sentiment among
members of the present legislature In
favor of adopting this method of rais
ing revenue. If no Income tax meas
ure Is passed It will be due to the
fact that senators and representatives
were unable to agree on details.
The Income tax bills at present in
evidence are:
The stato grange bill, introduced by
Representatives feennett and Wheeler.
The administration bill, introduced
by Representative McMahan of Linn
The flat rate bill, prepared by the
state tax Investigating committee
which probably will be offered as a
bill from the oommlttee on assess

ment and taxation.
The Kubll bill, which offsets the in

The
Kubll measure may not be introduced.
While Governor Pierce admits he
had Representative McMahan of Linn
introduced his bill, the governor said
he Is not so closely w«4ded to It that
he will not consider changes.

providing for appointment of three

troduced and considered as means for
relieving the financial burdens of the
taxpayers of Oregon. The resolution
sets forth that although many days
of the session have passed away, but
little real effort on thla line has been
made so far.
The senate, when it adjourned over
Sunday, had 48 bille upon Its calendar,
the house 115, a record for both so far
as the fewness of their offerings Is
concerned.
This week will probably see the In
troduction of the severance tax bill,
sponsored by Governor Pierce, which
will furnish undoubtedly plenty of
oratory and excitement before It Is
finally disposed of.
The roads and highways program
has not yet been determined, but re
ports indicate that there will be a
large number of bills In this connec
tion. These bills will strike at the
present motor vehicle laws and may
provide for Increasing "the motor ve
