If the bug bureaus in Washington that thrive on ap propriations instead of bugs were closed until the bug hunters found their bag, the expense of the bug hunters would be limited. Why would it not be a good plan to put a bounty on tbe bugs and tell the bug catchers to go to it; cateh'm bug, go* money; no cateh'm bug, no money. There te a screw loose sense where áemfiek «g it would be that when Public utility corporations may con tinue the merchandising of gas and electric appliances but the merchan dising end of their business must stand on its own bottom and not look to the rate payera to make up any loan incurred in the business, Charles M. Thomas, public utilities commis sioner, has ruled. In an order issued thia week Thomas required the utili ties to divorce their merchandising ac tivities from their public utility func tions. Pointing out that the primary object of the utility is to manufacture, furnish and deliver electric energy and gas to its consumers, Commis- lioner Thomas charged that many utilities have permitted the merchan- lising end of their business to over shadow this function. If you would have your son rfee in political preferment christen him “Charlie.” A census of state officials has revealed this to be the most popu lar surname. In a group of twelve of ficials assembled at a conference in the office of Governor Meier this week, seven responded to the name of ‘“Charlie.” There was Charlie Howard, superintendent of public instruction; Charlie Pray, superintendent of state oolice; Charlie Galloway, chairman of the state tax commission; Charlie Stricklin, state engineer; Charlie Gramm, labor eomrniaaioner; Charlie Thomas, public utilities commission er, and Charlie (Early, chairman of the industrial accident commisison. The other members of the conference were Julius Meier, governor; Rufus Holman, state treasurer; Max Gehl- har, chief of the department of agri culture; A. H. Averill, insurance commission, and Lynn Cronemiller, state forester. Uninterrupted operation of radio station KOAC a* the agricultural col lege at Corvallis, was assured when heads of state departments, respond ing to the plea of President W. J. Kerr, supplemented by the suggestion of Go verier Meier, agreed to sub scribe <6,000 out of department funds to finance the station until July 1 when funds will be available from tbe budget of the board of higher educa tion. With funds of the college, available for this purpose, exhausted, You’ve Seen the Rest Now See the Best! It’s a Scream 160 Two state officials were sent to hos pitals for treatment thia week«— James W. Lewis, warden at the state penitentiary, for stab wounds in the back inflicted by a erased convict, D. G. Van Houten, a life termer; and A. >H. AVerill, state insurance commis sioner, for a fracture of the right knee. Averill was struck down by an automobile aa ho was creasing a street on his way to his office. Tax delinquencies in Guos county as of March 1 amounted to 41.14 percent of the total levy for 1931, according to figures compiled by Rufus Holman, state treasurer. The delinquency this year is mors than double that of a year ago when 19.57 percent of the total levy wan unpaid as of March 1. The delinquency in Coos county rank« among the highest in the state with but little improvement in the situation since the first of the year. Tax delinquencies for the state as a whole as of March 1 totalled <11,- 644,738 or 23.19 percent of the total levy of <60,222,605.86 on the 1931 tax rolls. Delinquencies as of March 1 range from a low of 16 8 percent in Multno mah and Clackamas counties to a high of 46.16 percent in Curry county. Wil lamette valley counties including Multnomah, Clackamas, Marion, Ben ton, (Linn, Polk and Lans, show the lowest percentage of delinquencies, all rangihg under 20 percent, with Baker the only eastern Oregon county falling within this classification. While the situation is admitted due in large part to inability to pay «’•!» also aggravated to a certain degree by the action of the last legislature in repealing the penalty for delinquent payment of taxes and reducing the in terest on deferred payments to eight percent Under thia provision many persons who would otherwise borrow the money with which to meet their tax payment» are now letting the state carry the burden.

Referring to the control program in parts of Californis, members of the council stated that dairymen who had been interviewed there were enthusi astic over results so far obtained. It is thought that general conditions in Coos county are similar and that a The deficit in the state’s cash fund practical program can be developed has been reduced to approximately here which will make it possible for 11,000,000 through receipts from the dairymen to eliminate contagious income and intangibles taxes.

While the station is located at the college its use is available to all state institutions and departmental KOAC is owned by the state and is one of the few publicly owned broad casting stations in the west. When return trips to the dairy are necessary to test cows reported as suspects or for other work, a mileage charge of 6c per mile will be made in addition but for the other testing the fifteen cents per cow includes all costa. There will be no cost to the county as is the case for the tubercu losis testing.
