SOCIAL EVILS BILL
House, After Discussing Pro
Posed Law; Decided It Did
Not Meet Needs.
The House of Representatives this
morning resolved itself into debating
socioty, whereby most of the members
had an opportunity to speak on social
evils and the double moral stanaard.
House Bill 355, fathered by the train
ing department of war activities was
the cause of the morning's debate. It
is thig bill that tightens the reins on
disorderly houses and gives officers of
the law mdro authority in enforcing the
law.
Schuebel started the ball rolling when
ho declared "I cannot see where any
decent man should oppose this law. It
is in the interest of society. If it is
necessary to protect men during war
times, it is equally as necessary to put
safeguGttls around them after the war,
Gallaghor was opposed to tho bill,
saying tlmt the money spent in pros
ecutions might well be used in advnnc
ing tho work of tho Oregon Social Hy
giene society. Ho wanted plenty of
punishment for the man who hed brok
en the moral law and one that would
punish the man and not the woman
alone.
Mrs. Alexander Thompson, of The
Dalles, Dthe only woman representative
in tho house, expressed her opinion on,
the bill as follows: "In the interest of
real morality I oppose the bill. It deals
with results and not tho cause. It dis
criminates against the woman. I noto
tlmt it is tho name of the woman who
is always published whore there is an
infraction of tho law and not the nnme
of the man. Oregon's high moral stand
ard is duo to cducction and is the work
o f tho Oregon Social Hygiene society
Tho opposition of so many members
of tho houso to the proposed bill some
what rild Mr. Schuebcl, who was vig
orously supporting it. "I'd like to be
tho prosecuting attorney and go after
somo of these representatives who talk
so fiuoly tbout morality," he declared.
"I hope this legislature will not go on
record against this bill because some of
its mcmberg want to break the law."
But the general feeling was that the
proposed bill wus defective and for that
reason there was 38 votes cast against
it. Most of the members took the op
portunity of the roll call to state they
favored a moral law but that they did
not fuvor the bill proposed.
Representative Wcvu voted In favor
of the bill while Hughes, I.ooney, Mar
tin and Speaker Seymour Jones voted
against it. t '"lUlffl
As tho matter now stands, if those in
terested in such laws want any legisla
tion, a bill wil have to be presented
that will meet about forty different
views. As tho session is about on its
last lap, tho chances nro that o legis
lation will be enacted for the handling
of various mornjtproblems.

OREGON RETAILERS
(Continued from page one)

lata, and W. W; Mill, of Portland.
Needed Co-Operation
A large part of this mornin'B session
ws taken up with consideration of
the president's recommendations and
with the address of Captain A. A. Hall,
of the Adjutant General's office in
Portland. Captain Hall was before the

Houso Bills 43 and 44, and joint resolu
tion No. 6, designed to shut off needed
appropriations for the Oregon National

that Oregon could not hope for accom
modations from the federal government
unless the state showed a disposition to
tie up with, the government in its mili
tary program. He showed that unless
immediate action was taken in this mat
ter the stato would be shut off of fed
eral expropriations to the amount of
$23,000.
Captain Hall was vigorously applaud
ed and after a fow questions for expin
nntion a motion was made and carried
that the resolutions committee should
be instrnetcd to drew up a resolution,
condemning tho legislation in question
and urging generous appropriations for
tch National Guard.
This noon there was a raid of hun
gry delegations upon the plant of the
Cherry City Baking Company, where a
doyal lunch was spread out by the man
agement. It may be assumed that the
plant will not be sole to fill any more
orders this week. It is stated that tho
sumptuousness of the repast was only
equalled by the oratory of the speakers
who addressed the diners.
Other prominent features of the
day's program was the reports of com
mittees and the annual report of the
