Meier Signs Measure This Morning Extra Ses sion of Legislature Cer tain Nearly 600 Bills Introduced. SALEM, Ore., Feb. 14. (TP) The first bill of major importance en acted by the Oregon legislature became a law with the signing of t he Roguo river closing measure by Governor Julius L. Meier today. The elose of ttie fifth week of the session, find with one more week officially remaining of the 40-day limit period, left hundreds of other measures, many of them placed In the important list, yet remaining for final action and consideration by the two houses. The past week saw the first of the power measures brought onto the floor, while three other lead ing administration measures were yet to be reported out of commit tees. Most of the taxation meas ures wait notion, while appropria tion bills, highway bills, and the bulk of other legislation are still in various stages of development. The impossibility of completing the necessary task before next Fri day night vanquished what little hope there may have been for II adjournment on schedule. The overtime period is now being placed between a week and days. Action has been the featuro of ; both housea during the past few days, both holding late meetlngH, l and the senate continued in session ! today. The one-man commissioner of , utilities measure was reported out of the committee favorably last , night, and will perhaps be a spe cial order of business early next , week. The Orange Power District; tilll and tho hydro-electric mm-; miHsion hill, are expected out of . committees Monday. The taxation Vltuatlon, becoming more entan- Bllnp during the week by ultima- : turns from real property tax pay- ers for relief, have not been defin itely formed, although committees have worked late devising foma plan of relieving property of much of its burden. Another major bill was disposed of by the defeat In the house of the old age pension measurei while the free-text book bill has gone half wpy through, with tho appro val of the lower house. Tho senate killed tho move for municipalities assessing a two mill levy for main tenance of municipal bands, and the house on the floor killed the bill regulating stock running at large. 7,hese were the only three bills defeated on the floor of both houses, while tho governor has yet to exercise his first veto. me 1'ori oi i-oruami vuimma- sion uct, which has been a matter of contention during tho. entire session, was disposed of this week and Is now before the governor for hte signature. Hearings during the past week have been taken up with ! the prohibition referendum, a ; tunnel commission act, the state police system, taxation bills, and , other highway bills. None of these have lM'en reported out of com- inlttees. In addition there are many minor bills which will take nn tin. n h flnnr. RHIh are mill coining into both houses. The railroad bill, limiting num ber of freight cars which may be huuled to 70, after having passed the senate by a bare majority, wns recalled from tho house for recon sideration, nnd has been set for speclul order Monday. The basic, sciences, is also up for final con sideration in the senato Monday. The lih week will nrobably seo nlirht sessions on hoth sides of the legislative halls. New measures Introduced near ed the 600 mark, a statistical re view of accomplishment and activ ities revealed. The house Intro- ificed 32(1 while the sennte brought In 263. Of this total only 141, or one-fourth, have been uis- it.,.,i ,e nithet- l,v nnxgjice In both houses nr killed and withdrawn. Ono hundred forty-seven have vonc half way thru, passing one ot the houses. This leaves 301 still In committees.

If re-enacted, from to S percent, this tax will not, under the new plan, be collected until next year, and then on 1931 incomes as a Btu rter instead of 1930 incomes. It was further decided, tentatively at least, not to interfere with tho existing rates of the income tax. This now ranges from 1 to 5 per cent, and it had been proposed to increase the range to 8 per cent.

Feb. 14.- Tho government of lVemier tien eral Damaso Herenguer, successor to the irimo do Uivera dictator ship, fell today, bringing to n head it crisis which appeared lo he Hie most dangerous of any faced by King Alfonso in the courso ot his long reign. The king. accpllt!K (lie resigna tion of C.encral iierenguer nnd his cabinet, cancelled parliamentary elections which were scheduled for March 1 nd 15 nnd immediately began conferences with political loaders with a view to formation of a new cabinet. While the cabinet had been un der fire for several weeks, indeed from Its very inception in January, l!t:t0, the situation which brought its fall developed only late last night when tho Count of Uonm noaos and oilier itiioortant lilMiral monarchist loaders withdrew their j Rupp'.M'i of the cabinet's election program. j Nobody aiiemiits to deity the gravity of tho situation which many regard ns the most formid able challenge to his poiitirnl poli cies which the king has ever faced. ) All tho iefts and some of the monarchists had repudiated the March elections before do ltonia nones announced his stand, and tho oloctlons had become pretty much ; ti 1'arco, constituting widespread l'Q Jecllon of Ilerengiiei 's political pro I gram.

Whatever the makeup of tho n- w government, it is generally believed that ono of its objectives "will be general amnesty for ail prisoners churged with participation in last year's unsuccessful evolt. In usually well Informed iniar lers it was said that (ho liberal elements which finally forced He renguer out will propose a series or mass meetings throughout tho kingdom, designed to atimuluto pa triotism but at the same time work ing Mr tho continuation of tho mon archy which they regard as the only feasiblo government Spain. hollSod is too much for i'S ROMANCE John Gilbert 'The Perfect Lover and Stage Star Close Perfect Experi ment' No Comment.
