Pray, super lntendent, revealed today. In addition to warnings and check ing, the police collected fees amount ing to 36,B10. The three main di visions are general law enforcement, traffic law activities and the game division. t Of the 3.300 general law enforce ment arrests, the greatest number, 430, were for larceny of 135 and un der, followed closely by arresta for drunkenness and dlaorderly conduct. Heaviest Jail sentences were for bur glary, followed by statutory offenses and larceny. Most flnea were for sale of liquor, drunkenness and lar ceny In that order. In the traffic division, failure to carry operators' licenses led in ar rests, followed by lack of motor transportation permits and reckless driving. Driving while Intoxicated resulted In 334 arresta, but the pro portion to total violations ranked far down the list. Flnea assessed In the traffic divi sion were led by violators of the drunken driving act, for a total of $19,900. Reckless driving fines fol lowed with 15,327, while driving without licenses waa third. Fees collected were largely for li cense plates and void foreign licenses.

"It baa been the practice of con gress for many years." he said, "to pass a regular federali aid bill each blennium appropriating only that money needed to match a Late funds for the first half of the blennium. then to furnish the second half of such funds by carrying the appro priation in the deficiency bill the following year. "Thla was done as usual the paa session of congress and federal funds for 1930 were set aside for each of the states. Oregon with other west ern states, haa practically completed contracting present available funda furnishing sorely needed employment for thousands of Its citizens. This money and matched funds of the state, will be exhausted probably by October of this year with the result that unless federal funda ordinarily avauaoie are appropriated,, highway projects of the state will come to a standstill. . . i "Grave danger that the regular deficiency bill will not carry federal aid road funds la seen In the fact that much of the 1936 work relief appropriation for states In the east snd south haa not been used by those states. - leading congressmen from those district to believe that thla money can be carried over and used on the next biennial road bill."

Then I want to touch upon current history as a reveeier of prophetic Bigna. "Qod In His Holy Word iiss given to us many citations of His pro mlses that Ohrlst shall reign over an earthly kingdom. The 11th chap ter of the Book of Isslsh Is a ease In point. . "Again the record ssys of Him 'He shsU be great and shall be called the Son of the Highest, and the Lord God shall give unto Him the throne of His Father David.
