Consequently, if matters seem to be turning against her she is likely, to adopt strong measures if there is hope ror success. 'On the other hand, ' ' Dr. Jenks eon eludod, "the only sensible as well as just policy is for the other nations to insist upon the disputes between Japan and China being settled openly after .the disclosure of seeret treaties on the basis of justice to all concerned. We should also bear in mind that China is chiefly concerned and her wishes should be given greatest con sideration. " - SALARY GRABBING IS (Continued from page one) committee with instructions to place tho bill before the people in refer endum vote. This created a howl of disapproval from the big mnpority lined up with salary increases. Ana even the motion to just refer the bill to the wcys and mesns committee was most decisively turaed down. A call was then made for a straight votes to whether the house approved of a salary raise for the eorportion commissioned and 50 representatives uuea up for the increased salary. Of the Ms-rioa county delegation, Hughe, and Weeks voted against the snlury raise and Looney, Mariui uuu Speaker Seymour Jones in favor of the increase in salarv. "I understand we are short of funds," declared Eepreseutative Lewis. "If the ways f ii metns committee can not find money for ail these salary in creases, the state officers should be generous enough to work at their pres ent salary. I 'm not after Schulderman, but just thought it was a good time to have all these srlury increase bills re ferred to the people." Kcpresenttives Haines, of Hillsboro, who has served in the Senate and Rouse off and on for about ten years, said: "I believe we should snomlt salary raising te the people. I believe these Urge sal ary raises should be dceidod by the peo ple. 1 want all salary increase, refer red.

He said the aggregate so far did not meant to much, only $8,600 a year. With the vote of 50 in favor of allow ing Mr. Schulderman a a. increase of sal ary, tho house goes on record as favor in? more money for any state house official who can induce his friend to present a bill. The feeling was ex pressed this morning that as long as the house had voted in favor of advance salaries for the supreme judges, insur ance commissioner, dairy and food com missioner and state superintendent of schools, it would not single out any one of f ieial who wanted more money and torn hiin down. - It is understood that the senators in favor of salary raisins are in the sad dle in the senate and with 50 out of the 60 in the house voting along the ime line, the sledding irill be glorious for any state official who has the nerve to ask for more money.
