Senator Hess, Zimmerman. Burke and Brown carried the burden of the fight for the bill, and when I say the fight for the bill. I mean they were fighting for the people of Oregon, and Senator Allan Bvnon of Portland and Senator Goss of Marshfield, carried the fight for the utilities and against the bill. This bill was first introduced on January 16th and the fight continued until a fe wmlnutes before one o'clock In the morning on March 9th, when the legis lature adjourned. Senators Bynon for public utilities In preference to the people, almost defeated the purposes of the Thomas Bill. It was thought that In the (ace of the gubnatorlal campaign of 1930, we would have the Influence of the admin istration back of the bill, but If there was any Influence In that respect It was only a slight riffle, and when the bill finally struggled through and stag gered onto the governor a desk, he left It lie there and become a law without hie signature.
