Mr. I.iljeqvist deliverod an interest ing Mlk on Iho h-K-'tl aHpeets of tlie motor vehicle, laws ct the .state; stat ins that tho Htate i.s now houdod nearly to iiH cunKtitutlonal rapacity and that tho same condition exita in m-arly all the rountioH. 'I'hat Iho Htate can ko no furl her without constitu tional amendments and that the amendments even if proposed would i most likely not meet with tho ap proval of tho public. This state of affairs calls for a tax on motor ve hicles in direct proportion with tho damage they eause to tho hiKhways and on Choline, as a moiotr vehicle using a large amount of gas also causes damage to tho roads in direct proportion to tho amount of fuel used. The laws embodying theso principles have been enacted and are now in force; one taxing motor vehicles on a basis of weight and another impns ing a tax on gasoline used in vehicles traveling tho public highways. These laws were established with i out precedent and have not yet stood the test of an objection and a judicial ' decision. Oregon is a pioneer In a tax on motor vehicles on a basis of weight instead of horsepower and made a radical departure from pre cedent when tho law was enacted. Kile Is also a pioneer In regard to a tax on gasoline and Mr. LHJoqvIst stated that one of tho strongest boosters for , this act was Hen Sheldon of Mod ford. 'i'hat Oregon was a pioneer In these acts and that although tho laws were practical they had not yet Ptood before a court and received Judicial approval were tho two strong points of the address. At the conclusion of -Mr. l.IIJeqvisfs talk. Dr. Kickert polnled out that the state tax on motor vehicle fuel was the only way the state had of exacting toll from the non-resident tourist who traveled the ritate highways. Hen Sheldon announced that n del egation from t he Mod ford Chamber of Commerce would atteiu. the forum luncheon of tho Orant's I'ass Cham ber on Monday, December fith.

Gardner told police officers that he had lived here for three weeks, stay ing at a hotel and driving about the streets of tho city In his automobile.
