Gov. Meier has extended the mora­
torium on automobile license* for an­
other 15 days, or until August 1. He
could just as well have made it 30
days in the first place had he not been
trying to put Hal Hoss in a hole. As
it is the secretary of state emerges
with a great deal more credit from
that skirmish than does the governor.
Eleven counties of the state will
receive larger sums than will Coos
county in the apportionment of motor
vehicle operator and registration fees
received by the secretary of state
between April 1 and June 30. Of the
»1,568364.55 received, after deduct­
ing the administrative costa of »55,-
377.96, two-thirds goes to the high­
way department and one-third to the
county from which the fees are re­
ceived. Coos county’s share for the
quarter is »18,110.96. The apportion­
ment was made Wednesday.
The average license fee for passen­
ger vehicles in the state of Oregon is
»2138 for one year, according to sta­
tistics compiled by the secretary of
state’s office in Salem. Based on an
imaginary
“average”
automobile,
traveling an annual mileage of 11,000,
the coat of the registration fee would
be nineteen hundredths of a eent per
mile.
The Oregon license is 0.05
higher than the average registration
fee of all the other states in the
Union. The national average, baaed
on >11,000 miles is 0.14 cents per mile
license cart.
We do not know all the animus
back of the Marion County Taxpayers
Equalisation League, in Initiating the
bill which will cause the consolidation
of the state college and the univer­
sity, and put Eugene off the educa­
tional map of Oregon.
But we do
know that when Hoary Zorn, presi­
dent of the League, attempts to throw
duet in the eyes of the newspapers of
the state and their readers, by sending
out stories to discredit the opponent«
of his bill, by claiming that the initi­
ative petitions were stolen from a
Portland office, hie statements are
not to be trusted. It was a dirty way
to try to defame the opponents of the
consolidation bill, and if^that bill
meets the fate it deserves it will be
snowed under by an avalanche of
votes at the November election.
In slow freezing, the foods pass so
slowly through the principal ice-form­
ing sone, 31 to 25 degrees above aero,
that there is time for large ice crys­
tals to form from the wster in the
cell walls, damaging the structure,
taste, quality, and appearance of the
food. But with quick freezing at low
temperatures the transition through
the crystal sone is so rapid that there
is little time for sizable crystals to
form.
The elastic cellular walls of many
fruits expand to accommodate the
small crystals formed in quick free*
ing, but the rigid walls of such vege­
tables as spinach, asparagus, peas,
and carrots burst. This change to the
structure, however, is actually bene­
ficial to the food, for with unfrosen
vegetables 40 to 60 per cent of the
cooking time is occupied with this
very task of breaking down the cell
walls. Quick freezing, but reducing
the cooking tijne shout half, saves
much of the frosh flavor and aroma
usually loot in cooking.
Because of this, frozen vegetables,
it fa claimed, are actually preferable
to unfrozen vegetables fresh from the
field, and are far ahead of vegetables
which have been picked green and
have spent several days en route to
market. With the recent development
of portable quick freezers it is possi­
ble to harvest the fruits and vege­
tables full ripe and freeze them in the
fields immediately, so that none of
their cpulity is loot Some products,
such as corn, however, keep better
when frozen 'while slightly immature.
Meats and fish and other sea foods,
too, reach the consumer fresher by
far than so-called fresh products that
have been days and weeks in transit,
for the quick freezing captures and
holds the freshness until the foods are
thawed. Quick freezers aboard ships
and on fish piers make this immediate
freezing of sea foods passible
The elimination of waste and of
spoilage offsets the cost of long-time
refrigerated storage. All the inedible
parts are trimmed off. Only 42 per
cent of fish is edible and only that 42
per cent is qwiek frozen; the other 88
per cent conafate of heads, tails, bones,
scale, and other waste.
Bone and
surplus fat are trimmed off the meat
cute that are to bo quick frozen.
The many cuts of meat now being
sold sell at the same price as unfros­
en meat, and the packers expect to re­
duce the average price of meat about
three and a half cents a. pound. Quick
frozen fruits and vegetables sell
somewhat higher in price than un­
frozen produce, but with the increme
of volume and facilities this will
probably come down at least to par
with the unfrosen price.
Some forty firms, including several
of the largest food packing firms in
the country, are engaged in the pro­
duction and distribution of quick
frozen foods, and they have been and
are spending millions on plants, equip­
ment, and research.
They expect
within a decade or lees to build up
nationwide
distribution,
making
available to every home in the land a
year ’round diet of fresh fruita, vege­
tables, seafoods, and meats. To ac­
complish this, however, hundreds of
thousands of retail outlets must be
equipped with low temperature dis­
play cases, and to enable the house­
wife to buy in quantity, to lay in a
supply of frozen foods just as she
purchases a stock of canned goods,
low-temperature home refrigeration
must be developed. The home must
be equipped with a refrigerator that
has one compartment maintaining 40
to 50 degrees above sero for ordinary
perishables and another that main­
tains possibly 10 degrees above for
quick frozen food storage. This re­
frigerator must be capable of being
defrosted without the temperature
rising to a point ait which quick froz­
en food, will thaw.
Voters of Oregon will be required
to pass judgment on 13 measures at
the time of the state election next
November.
Seven of these will be measures ini­
tiated by the people, three will be
measures referred to the voters by the
last legislature and three will be leg­
islative acta against which the refer­
endum has been invoked.
Five of the 13 measures involve
proposed amendments to the state
constitution. The other eight are
statutory provisions.
•
The seven initiated measures are:
Constitutional amendment provid­
ing for creation of county tax conser­
vation commissions with authority to
pass on reasonableness and necessity
of proposed bond issues and tax
levies; sponsored by the Oregon Tax-
Tayens’ Equalisation and Conserva­
tion League;
Constitutional amendment enlarg­
ing scope of the state water power
and hydroelectric amendment, spon­
sored by the State Grange;
STax Supervising and Conservation
Bill authorising governor to appoint
commission of three members in each
county to serve without pay, sponsor­
ed by Oregon Taxpayers’ Equaliza­
tion and Conservation League;
Personal Income Tax Law amend­
ment, increasing tax rate in higher
brackets and reducing exemptions,
sponsored by Oregon
Taxpayers’
Equalization
and
Conservation
League;
Freight Truck and Bus bill impos­
ing additional fees and restrictions
on trucks and busses, sponsored by
Highway ¡Protective association;
University-State College Consoli­
dation bill, sponsored by Marion
Equalization
County
Taxpayers’
LdftgUd;
Bill to Repeal State Prohibition
law, sponsored by Harry B. Critchlow
of Portland;
The throe referred measures, all
proposed constitutional amendments,
include the following proposals:
Providing for taxpayer qualifica­
tions for voters on bond issues and
tax levies;
Authorising criminal trials without
juries by consent of the accused;
Enlarging the basis for computa­
tion of the six percent limitation on
tax levies.
The three legislative acts against
which the referendum has been in­
voked, automatically suspending thsir
operation until after the November
election, are:
Rogue River Fishing Bill, closing
that stream to commercial fishing,
referendum sponsored by F. B. Postel
and eleven other residents of Wedder-
burn;
Oleomargarine Tax Bill, imposing
a tax on the manufacture and sale of
this commodity, referendum sponsored
by the Anti-Food Tax League;
Higher Education Appropriation
bill, appropriating »1,183,000 from the
general fund of the state for mainten­
ance of the state’s five institutions of
higher education, referendum spon­
sored by Marion County Taxpayers*
Equalization League.
Referendums invoked against three
other legislative acts were abandoned
by their sponsors and ten initiative
measures for which preliminary peti­
tions were filed with the secretary of
state’s office were never completed.

The automobile license controversy
has apparently ended in a stalemate
with only two visible results: First,
confusion on the part of the motoring
public as to what the situation with
respect to license purchases really is,
and second, serious depletion of the
highway fund through failure of the
motoring public to purchase licenses
due to the uncertainty as to what
might happen. Scores of motorists
have written the automobile registra­
tion department enclosing money to
pay for a quarter- or half-yearly li­
cense with a demand that their ap­
plication be filled on that basis under
the belief that Governor Meier had

set aside the law and put his partial
payment plan into effect. These, of
course, were all returned with ex­
planations as to what the situation
realty is. On the other hand less than
one-half as many automobiles have
been licensed to date thia year than
was the case a year ago in spite of
the fact that a moratorium of 30 days
was granted by the governor at that
time. Revenues of the motor vehicle
registration department have fallen
off proportionately showing a loss of
nearly »1,500,000 compared with last
year’s receipt».
Unless Governor
Meier extends his moratorium—as it
is predicted here that he will—mo­
torists who operate their cars after
July 15 will be expected to display the
new plates in order to avoid arrest by
state police.
