Senators Rrown and Zimmerman
put up a strong fight for the farm
mortgage moratorium hill, pattern
ed after the Iowa law, but a num -
ber of so-called constitutional law
yers succeeded In having the meas
ure killed on the grounds that it
waa not constitutional. A powerful
lobby representing banka, insurance
an«i loan sgencica has been here for
days fighting this legislation. How
ever. on Saturday th# senate passed
a bill permitting tanks to declare
moratoriums, and this bill was de
clared constitutional. Brown
and
Zimmerman had something to say
to that, and they »aid it! This bank
holiday waa later recalled.
The state bank bill, sponsored by
the (¡range, tweived only 7 favor
able votes in the senate.
The chain store tax bill, which
has been maneuvered arsaind thru’
the influence of the chain store
lobby, ia hack in the house commit

$l.r>00 for married couples, with
$100 for each dependent, the rates
to 1» from 2 to 7 per eent.
The indications are that a big
drive ia going to lie put under way
In the closing days o f the session,
to pas» a general soles tax. A re-
r«'nt newspaper article quoted Will
iam Randolph Hearst, well-known
newspaper publisher, os favoring
the adoption o f a sales tax and the
abolition of income taxes. Orange
«nd Labor officials have lieen con
tending for some time
that the
movement for a sales tax emanated
from Big Business and was being
prosnotcl so that income taxes would
not be further advanced or so that
they might be reduced. This open
admission from
Hearst boars out
the stand taken by Grange and
labor.
On George Washington’s bithday
Senator llaxlett delivered an ad

201
years old.
A lot of valuable time has been
going to the «logs. A new horse and
dog racing hill has lx1 on introduced.
Another piece of important leg
islation which passed the house
Saturday, and which
drew forth
many pointed 'and stinging
re
marks
of a personal nature, was
the mosquito bill.
The Senate passed a bill provid
ing that Washington’s birthday no
longer be observed as n school hol
iday in Oregon, but that a short
program shall be held in the mor

An amended measure softening
the Oregon syndiialism law passed
the senate.
The senate also passed
three
unemployment relief bills, provid
ing for t'hc placing of unemployed
on logged-off and burned-over lands.

The offer of Henry Dahl, sup
erintendent of the West Slope water
district, to allow Beaverton to us«
some of the mains belonging to
that district to help bring Beaver
ton’s water from the city reservoir
down to the city mains, was probab
ly the principal feature of Mon
day’s council meeting. Owing to the
condition o f the ground at this time,
it is thought unadvissfcle to try to
lay the pipe connecting Che reser
voir with the city mains.
Alderman Fordney, chairman of
the water
committee of the city
council is to be commended in get
ting this consession granted from
the district to the east of us and

so that probably early next week
the city will be using th«»ir own
water for the first, time since its
incorporation.

through his attorney, both
being
present, offered to accept 60% of
the face value of his tax certifi
cates which he holds against cer
tain proprty bid in by the city on
delinquent assessment liens. No art-
ion was taken in the matter.
Fred H. Goyt,
formerly with
Swift & Co. was appointed to the
position o f city water superintend
ent with a salary of $70 per month.
His duties were briefly outlined and
include reading meters, putting in
Ups. running
the pump at the
reservoir and other duties inciden
tal to the maintenance of the water
system. E. O Zimmerman, V. Dom-
ogella, R. D. Williams and others
were also applicants for the posi
tion.
A. E. 'Wilson, M. W. Manning
and Mrs. Lela Richey were appoint
ed on a committee to work with
the finance committee of the coun
cil to work out some means o f sol
ving the delinquent assessment lien
situation.
A resolution was offered and a-
dopted requiring the regular month
ly meetings of the town council to
be opened with a prayer to be given
by some of the ministers of the
churches represented here.

Claire Williams is in the county
Edward Bettendorf has returned
late
to this vicinity from Grants Pass. jail and J. Lambom Elder,
publisher of The Beaverton Enter
prise, is out on bail. Both are charg
ed with setting fire to and attempt
ing to burn up the plant where the
Enterprise had been published and
the building it occupied.
According to Elder’s statement,
he purchased the plant and paper
from H. H. Jefferies and after de
faulting on his payments entered
into a contract with Claire Williams,
circulation promoter to put on
a
st(b»criptScm campaign. He talked
with Jeffrie? «b o u t, the campaign
and with a former employer. The
campaign was not turning out so
well but there came a suggestion
from Williams that a good way out
would be to “ have a fire.”
But the fire was not a very great
success from the conspirators stand
point so ‘.hey got a few friends to
claim they, the friends, had sent
in a lot o f subscriptions and the
prizes were awarded by the judges
o f the contest. Earl Fisher and
others to these "friends” who had
supplied Williams with statements
of subscriptions they, the “ friends”
had sent in. But local people were
not satisfied that all was straight.
Some of these people went to the
district attorney,
G. R.
Morgan
who in turn got in touch with the
state fire marshall and others with
the result that statements
were
obtained from some o f these sup
posed prize witu^rs to the effect
that they had taken no part in__the
contest but had sighned the sub
scription statements and the re
ceipts for prizes “ just t® help W ill
iams and Elder out.” Just a friendly
j gesture, so to speak.
