NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL, THURS., JANUARY 20, 1938 STATE CAPITOL NEWS A. L. LINDBECK State Capitol News Bureau SALEM, ORE..—Patrons of t!ie state library are becoming more serious-minded in their reading in the opinion of Mss Harrett C. Log. state librarian. Mail order requests for books on the useful arts during 1937 were more than double the re quests for the same type of books during 1933, records of the library reveal. There was also a material increase for books on sociology and economics, philosophy, religion and home economics. On the other hand requests for books of fiction fell off from 15,095 in 1933 to »10,902 in 1937. — L — Roseburg to Receive Mental Cases Fifty-eight mental cases now be ing treated at the two state hos pitals will be transferred to the new federal institution at Roseburg shortly after Febuary 1. Thirty-eight patients will be transferred from the Salem hospital and 20 from the Pendleton institution. —L— A total of 1427 Oregon motorists Revocations Exced 1936 suffered revocation or suspenison of their drivers’ licenses during 1937 according to figures public by Secretary of State Snell. This total is 290 more than the 1936 figure. Driving while intoxicated accounted for 906 revocations or 87 per cent of the total In 1035 cases the suspen sion or revocation was subject to the safety responisbility act under which the driver must establish proof of financial responsibility before his right to operate a car will be restor ed. — L — Up To District Attorneys The supreme court opinion last week outlawing slot machines and pinball games as lotteries operated in violation of the state constitution “tolls the funeral bells upon all such devices in Oregon," according to Ralph Moody, assistant attorney general. Moody who has been active in prosecuting pin ball and slot ma chine operators in Marion and Polk county declared thaTit now becomes TAKE A BOW HERE'S no dodging the fact that peas play an important part in our modern diet. Therefore it is fortunate that peas are uni versally available in cans, the best peas harvested at their prime and clapped into cans so quickly that they lose nothing of their fresh taste and nutritious qualities. In this form they not only save the housewife a lot of work, but they enable her to combine them with other foods in ways that would be almost impossible if she had all the work of cleaning and preparing them to do. Here is a recipe, for instance, that would be really too much trouble, if the housewife had to prepare everything from the start, but which is practically no trouble at all when she gets her peas and salmon from cans and her maca roni from a package. This Serves Eight Salmon, Pea and Macaroni Cas serole: Put enough macaroni to make two cups to cook in boiling salted water. Flake the contents of one tall can salmon, removing bones. Drain one cup of canned peas, grate one cup of cheese and cut four slices of bacon in halves. Make a white sauce by cooking one tablespoon minced onion in three tablespoons butter a few minutes, adding two and a half *ablespoons flour, and then adding T the duty of every district attorney and law enforcement officer in the state to see to it that none of these devices are permitted to operate in their counties. —L— Five Buildingst Considered For State Office Consideration of proposals for a Portland office building by the fToard of Control has apparently been narrowed down to five offers These Include the Elks Temple, the Board of Trade Building, the Port- alnd Municipal Market building, the Lloyd's proposal and a proposed civic center on the west side. The first three of these proposals in volve the purchase of old buildings and their reconditioning to meet the needs of the state. Lloyd's Inc. has offered to donate a site on the east side and to accept three per cent certificates of indebtednss in financ ing construction of a two story modem office building 200 by 200 feet. The Elks Temple has been o f fered the state for $690,000 including the cost of remodeling the structure. Agents for the Board of Trade build ing an 11-sory office structure, have offered this prpoerty together with an adjacent 100 by 100 foot lot for a total cost of $625,000, this figure to cover the cost of necessary altera tions to the buildings. —L— Chain Sore Tax Petition Filed Preliminary petitions for a new chain store tax measure were filed with Secretary of State Snell this week by Oregon Independence Busi ness League of Portland. The new measure which is said to be modeled after the Louisiana law recently up held by the United States supreme court provides for a graduated tax ranging from $10 per store for chains operating from two to ten stores up to a maximum of $550 per store on chains operating more than 500 stores. Sponsors of the measure claim that it would yield an annual revenue of $500,000 in Oregon. —L— Oregon Income Tax Income tax collections by Oregon during 1937 totalled $5,344,047 it was reported by the state tax commis sion. Of this amount $3,328,683 was received from individuals and $1,- 741,039 from corporations. The 1397 total was more than twice that of 1931 when only $2278,767 were col lected from this source. —L— Vets Aid Commission Shews Profit A net profit of $118,848 on its real estate sales during 1937 was report ed by the World War Veterans State Aid commission this ween. Sales of farm and city property by the commission during the year tot alled $1,401,143. The state's invest ment in these properties amounted to $1,268,262. —L— Broken Homes Cause of Youths Troubles Eighty per cent of the inmates of the Boys’ Training School come from broken homes Superintendent Sam Laughlln told the Board o f ; CCH1206, that of the disaccharides jelly-making, etc., they are caused DR.
