posed insurance code are coming from
rorllaud on a special train tomorrow.
it was iinuouiieed today, to attend the
public hearing in the senate chamber
tomorrow nilit nil the proposed set
of laws. The code, which revises all
insurance laws now in etteet, has
en introduced into (lie hoiwe and
at present is in the hands of the .joint
committee on taxation.
The principal objection voiced
ngninst the code is that it gives the
state tibsolutc control over insurance
rates, loth the proponents and op
ponents of the measure will be heard
by the committee, which desires to
have all changes in the law made be
fore it is sent buck lo the house, and
thus have its passage unhampered by
amendments.
Harvey Wells, slate insurance com
missioner, has issued a statement
that behind Senator A. M. I.a I'ol

the workmen's compensation fund is
a move on the pari id' insurauce'cnni-
pnnics lo cripple the industrial acci

surance field now covered by the
onunission. floveruor James Withy
ombe lias voiced his opposition lo the
measure and, should it pass, it is con
sidered improbable that it will lie
signed by him.
Little progress is being; made by the
legislature in solving the Oregon road
