Re-refer Report.
' The report of the sub -committee
on the state Insurance department
was re-referred when opposition was
expressed to the abolition of the real
estate division and Its combination
. with the Insurance commissioner.
The sub-committee recommended
that four bills requested by the In

nue be approved and Introduced as
ways and means committee bills. An
estimated revenue of (355,000 would
result from those bills.'
One of these provides for an assess
ment against domestic stock and mu
tual Insurance companies of '4 Pr
cent on gross premiums, the same
as now assessod against foreign cor
porations, estimated to raise addi
tional revenue of (100,000 biennially.
The second bill would tax annuity
payments on the same basis a prem
iums on other classes of insurance,
estimated to raise new revenue of
$100,000 blannually. The aecond bill
Increase the license fees of local In
surance agents from (3 to $5, esti
mated to Increase revenue (70,000
each two years. The fourth bill would
make (135 a year the minimum tax
on each Insurance company doing
business In Oregon, regardless of the
amount of business done, estimated
to raise an additional (30,000 blan
nually. Favor Cat for Justice.
Although a constitutional amend
ment would be necessary to reduce
tbs salaries of supreme court Justices,

schedule apply. It would reduce the
Judgea' salarlea from (7900 to (4135.
A total budget for the court of (100,
400, a reduction1 of (34,004, was

who opposed the lo&n have been
wishing ever slnpe that they hadn't.
Stranger bedfellows are seldom
found than New York banks and
Senator Huey Long united In opposi
tion to the Glass banking bill If for
different reasons. Some bankers say
there may be something to the bill
after all.
Curious sidelight on the Automo
bile Show: Show ssles of expensive
makes held about even with year
ago. Cheaper cars dint do as well.
One large manufacturer used a
new come-on stunt at the show. He
hired half a dozen personable young
men snd women to wander around
In evening dress and express public
admiration for his models. Also they
were Instructed If a group gathered
at a competitor's booth to make
disparaging remarks in an audible
tone. There were even eases of sales
slips torn up five minutes later. This
Is something new in the way of auto
suggestion.
New York banks are expected to
start shooting soon at the plans to
have checking accounts included In I
the postal saving system. The German-system
has been used as a mod
el. Meeting conditions In commun- 1
Hies where all banks have closed Is
principal objective. Able econo
mists and business men, well con
nected, are developing the details. :
No bankers are co-operating. ,
portatlon to their native countries
have swamped authorities charged
with voluntary deportation. Now the
financial strain on foreign shipping
companies has compelled several Eu
ropean consulates to establish quota
systems. The technique of handling
applicants Is almcet an exact replica
or the routine used by American
consuls abroad up to two years ago
when tens of thousands sought to
get Into the United States.

They say that he la gone, and yet
1 know tnat it was he I met
When I paused awhile Just yesterday
And watonea a happy child at play.
In every little aot of grace,
I seem to see bis smiling face:
And no matter how distressed I be,
I feel bis spirit guiding me.
Whenever I kneel down to pray,
I think of the loving, earnest way
Re helped ua all our paths to trod,
And brought a closer walk with
Ood.
His fortune consisted not In gold.
In precious gems or wealth untold
Bis only price was a joyous love,
From his fellowmen and Ood above.
And even though Ood loved blm so.
He called him and he had to go.
X know he llvee love never ends;
He labors In the hearts of his
friends, ,

young people all over the valley who
