atives of the Oregon State Orange to
day took Issue with Oovernor Charlea
II Martin, who late yesterday chargea
them with Interfering into legislative
matters with which they had no con
cern. Martln'a charge was made Just prior
to his first defeat of a major fight
with the Oregon State legislature
when the Senate failed to muster the
constitutional 16 votes on the county
unit system for public schools and
the bill went down to defeat by the
margin of a alngle vote.
The Stat Grange waa known to
have been active, In fighting the bill
which was one of Martln'a original
four administration measures, and
Governor Martin, cognizant of that
tact.,declared:
"Self Appointed Leaders"
"What business have these men to
appear as the mentors of every bill
which comes up. This self-appointed
group of leaders should be out plow
ing In tha fields. Instead they are up
here pestering the legislature."
Hay QUI. master of the state orange.
and Morton Tompkins, were the two
who were the subject of Martins
charge. Joined by V. F. Llvesay, tne
third member of the legislative com
mittee of the Orange, the organiza
tion's leadera Issued the following
statement today:
"For over thirty years the Oregon
State Orange has maintained a legis
lative committee at all sessions of the
legislature and this committee Is pro
vided for In the Grange by laws, so
we are not self appointed."
"The governor states that this com
mittee "should be out ploughing m
the fields, where the birds are sing
ing"; that Is Just a polished way of
saying, "Go home and alop the hogs."
The county unit mill only applies to
rural sections Bnd la of primary In
terest for farmers. Most every bill
presented at the legislature effects
farmers and, we are therefor con
cerned."
There are 55.000 farms of 3 acres
or more In Oregon with real property
valued at 630 millions. There are 330
Granges in Oregon with 20,000 mem
bers. With the tremendous opposition
to the cunty unit bill the wonder Is,
that these senators did not get more
communications than they did."
"Doing Their Duty"
We have no quarrel with the Gov
ernor. We are here to do our duty for
the Grange, the largest farm organi
zation In the state. Wc will carry for
ward their legislative program and no
one can Intimidate us."
The defeat of tho county unit
school bill on the 40th day of the ses

He predicted that during the next

Mallon added, 'however, that this
had been the usual case in press re

SAI.HM. Ore , Feb. 33 i,V Major
liquor Issues were thrown into the

throe measures, one providing pert- :
lnrnt changes In the Knox liquor taw.
another a stamp tax for cities to re:- ;
ulate their own ber sales systems :
and the third, a wine ad valoren tax.
were Introduced or prepared for in
troduction. These Issues appeared as the sixth
woek of the 38th regular session came
to a close, and although It was pat
the regular 40-day period, the session
was expected to continue for another
two weeks. The most optimistic lead
ers believing however, that it may
end in another 10 days, or about
March fl. Both tut'.isea were in ses
sion today, the lower branch contin
uing until night while the senate
adjourned at noon.
The changes In the present liquor
control law. on which the house al
coholic committee has agreed, were
featured by raising the alcoholic con
tent of wine which rosy be distrib
uted by private firms under licenses
Issued by the state, and reduction of
the alcoholic content In beer sold.
The present law provides that all
wines containing 14 per cent alcohol
by volume, or less, may be so dis
pensed. Should the amendments to
the Knox law be supported. It would
raise the content from that ratio to
17 per cent by weight, which has
been declared equivalent to 21.0 by
volume.
Another chief amendment to the
law would limit the legal alcoholic
content of beer to 3 8 per cent by
weight. Many other change are rec
ommended. Including reduction of
hard liquor buying permits from $1
to 50 cents a year.
All major controversies upon to
day's calendars wen deferred until

their desks of scores of smaller Is
sues. Next week w!U also see the

TOWNSEND RECALL
VOTE LANE SOLON
WHO OPPOSED SET
SALEM. Feb. 23. (AP) A recall
election on Representative Howard
Merrlam will be called for Lane
county before March 20. probably
right after March 15, It waa made
known hero today when Merrlam
said he would refuse to resign within
the five-day period.
Petitions for the recall, with Hg-
natures of 3S45 names, or 600 more
than required, were filed with the
secretary of state late yesterday.
The five-day period In which Mer
rlam has the right to resign If he
so wished, started today, but the
Lane county representative was em
phatic In his declaration he would
not resign. After the five-day period
the aecrotnry of state must call an
eleetion within 20 days.-
Tho recall against Merrlam was
started tn In county by supporters
of tho Townarnd $200 a month old

legislature show Merrlam cast an af
firmative vote for the modified
Townsend pension memorial. The
survey the situation. They found con
gress nering the end of the second
month of tho session with hardly a
single piece of major legislation out
of the way.
This situation was nothing les
than atartling by comparison with the
first sessions under President Roose
velt. Pennsylvania avenuo was crowd
ed then with menscnpcra bearing
grants of power to the Whit House.
An explanation f the change was
quickly advanced by the Chamber of
Commerce of the United State,
which In Its fortnlnhtly review, said
one of the chief causes was "grow
ing resistance to the sweeping char
acter of proposals advanced by the
administration aa well aa to the de
termination of an Important bloc to
follow a more deliberate and Inde
pendent course."
On Capitol Hill the conclusions
varied. Democrats said there waa lit
tle significance: that congress got
started late duo to the lame duck
amendment: and that the first la-
sues presented were more than nor
mally controversial Republicans
agreed in part with the Chamber of
Commerce, but contended also It was
a sign of growing opposition to tho
administration.
Tho latter view was advanced 07
some Republicans who hive support
ed President Roosevelt They aald
thoir mail indicated sentiment was
turning against the chief executive,
and that senators were no longer
compelled to follow tho administra
tion because of an overwhelming
"pro-Roosevelt" feeling.
One Republican, who did not wish
to bo quoted, aald tho change In his
correspondence had. been ona of the
strangest political phenomena -ho had
ovor witnessed, ire said tho admtn
istmtlon'a social security program
had proved a boomerang, because tho
great masses of the poor had expected
a more liberal, plan.
Another Republican, who has bceo
friendly to the administration, said
a year ago 00 per cent of his mail
