LEGISLATIVE PREVIEWS
There will be no delay in the or
ganization of the forty-third legis
lative assembly of the State of Ore
gon scheduled by statute to con
vene on January 3, the earliest date
the legislature has ever met in this
state. The 1943 session had a stor
my launching with a two-day hold
up over the election of a president
of the Senate. Elective majorities
are assured Howard C Beltton and
Eugene E. Marsh for president of
the Senate and speaker of the
House respectively. Senator Bel
ton, as president of the Senate will
preside over that body and joinit
assemblies of the Senate and House,
appoint members of interin com
mittees, be authorized with veto
power, become acting governor in
case of vacancy or disability and
be in an advantageous position to
run for governor. The speaker of
ihe house has similar duties and
succeeds the president of the senate
to the gubernatorial chair in case
of vacancy or disability of both the
governor and the president of the
Senate.
It is as plain as the words on a
24-sheet poster that the 'coming le
gislature will have more group
fponsored bills to contend with than
any preceding Oregon law making
body. The big storm scene will
start in the first act and continue
during the whole show, ammuni
tion by the whiskey, milk, truck
and labor groups will follow in
troduction of bills in their interest.
These bills will be political hot po
tatoes filled with dynamite. Port
land saloons (commonly and fre
quently referred to as speakeasies)
will be the heavy dough troop.
They will be in the lobby early
with brief cases bulging and drip
ping. These liquor jugglers have
been drilling for a long time as
they realize the drys won during
the last war and may try it again.
Their errand will be to block any
laws for temperance and to legal
ize streamlined saloons, cocktail
bars and "refreshment clubs."
ATTORNEY GENERAL RULES
Recent opinions by Attorney Gen
eral George Neuner: One who auc
tions or attempts to auction real
estate for a fee or commission is
required to be licensed as a real
estate broker. Justice courts have
no jurisdiction over violations of
C. 275, O L'41, relating to killing of
game without a license.
ASSESSORS CONSERVATIVE
The present inflationary prices
on real property should not be used
as a legitimate basis of assessment
at the present time, nor should be
until they have reached what may
be considered a more permanent
general level, the Willamette Val
ley Assessors' association decide i
at their annual meeting in Salem
last week. Several assessors from
outside the valley attended. Keep
ing uniformity of personal property
assessments needs an enactment by
the legislature the assessors agreed.
WITH OiK EYE SHUT
State Budget Director George
Aiken has been annoyed for sever
al weeks by an eye infection. It is
better now. The trouble came on
when the budget for the 1945-47 bi
ennium was in the making and he
had to wear a patch over one eye.
He claims that patch saved the tax
payers a great deal of money as he
could see only one-half of the re
quests for increased appropriations
made by state department heads.
WINTER FOREST HUES
There were several forest fires in
Oregon the past week, the last one
near Lacomb in Linn county, which
destroyed about 50 thousand feet of
logs. At this time of the year ferns
have been dried out by frost and
thaw and are a great fire hazard.
The destruction wrought by fern
fires is very great as all the
young sprouting trees under the
fern are completely destroyed.
Many fires in the mid-winter sea
son are started by "warm-up" fires
in logging camps.

FAMOUS PAIRS
Just as there are famous pairs of
people Romeo and Juliet, Samson
and Delilah, Lunt and Fontaine
there are famous pairs of foods
sauerkraut and weiners, liver and
onions, apple pie snd cheese. There
is something about the flavor of
these pairs which blend together
rnd complement each other. We are
in favor of the marriage of another
pair steamed pudding and ice
cream. If you've never eaten this
combination you've a treat in store
for you. We think the flavor of ice
cream on the steamed pudding is
much better even than whipped
cream of hard sauce. And so much
easier! The steamed pudding can be
prepared in advance, then merely
heated just before serving.
Prune-Nut Suet Pudding ala Mode
2 cups sifted all purpose flour;
teaspoon salt; 1 teaspoon baking
soda; 1 cup coarsely ground suet;
2-3 cup chopped dried prunes; 4
tablespoons grated orange rind; 2
eggs, well beaten; 1 cup milk; 1 cup
molasses; 1 quart vanilla ice cream.
Sift flour, salt and baking soda
together. Combine remaining in
gredients and add to dry ingredi
ents. Mix these together thorough
ly, and pour into a greased, cov
ered 2-quart pudding mold. Then
steam for V2 hours. Serves 10 to
12. Serve warm topped with ice
cream. '
Ice cream is good served over
other foods too. Have you tried
it over warm stale cake? Ginger
read and icecream is an excellent
combination. And pumpkin pie or
squash pie ala mode should not be
forgotten.
The fact that any dessert which
contains ice cream is nutritious
must not be overlooked. One serv
ing of ice cream will furnish 1-6
of an adult's daily requirement of
calcium. According to the report
of many studies of American diets
calcium is one of the food elements
often lacking. It is therefore quite
THE INDISPENSABLE CAN
important to add calcium-rich
foods to meals whenever possible.
Ice cream serves a useful purpose
in this respect. When compared
with different foods often used in
its place in meals, ice cream is
low in calories, high in calcium and
supplies varying amounts of other
dietary essentials.
Brownie Scouts have collected
over five pounds of beads and five
pounds of yarn for occupational
therapy at McCaw General hospital.
