In Battle Royarr
Captain William Ashhy, who
plays everything from a Jews harp
tn marbles and shoots everything
from baskets to craps, succeeded
in making himself a nominee for
the hall of famous basketball
guards, and two basketball fives
showed themselves to be wonder
ful "battle royal" teams, when Sa
lem and Corvallls tossers met
here before a packed armory last
night. The locals won by a score
of 27 to 21.
A eonslstent lead maintained
through excellent team work of
the locals rendered the first half
devoid of thrills, but in the sec
ond period a spurt by the visitors
and an inability lo register on the
part of Salem made the score card
nearly balance. The second half
was marked bv a irreat deal of
them j roughness, but the game tost m a
measure its resemblance to a
"battle royal" when both quintets
availed themselves of time out prlv
ileges.

Too much cannot be said for Ash

mittedly rare, of being In from

ley's floor work was unusually
good, and if all state critics this

Bill Introduced by
Representatives Pall
Short of Previous
Sessions to Date
While the house members have
lien a littie backward In the Intro
duction of new legislation at the
present session of the legislature as
compared to their record of two
years ago, their colleagues of :ne
upper house have more than made
up for this deficiency until now
with the session just half way
through its six weeks course the
total of hills introduced in both
houses exceeds the total for the
total for the first three weeks of
the 1!19 session by just, three.
.- Bills In Mill.
In 1919 a total of 323 bills were
Introduced in the house during the
first three weeks of the session as
against a toal of 256 in the first
three weeks of the present session.
This is 67 in favor of the session of
1919.
The senators, however, have out
done themselves this year in their
zeal to earn their $3 per diem, In
troducing a total of 198 bills up to
date as compared to 12S for the
same period two years ago a gain
of 70 in favor of the present ses
sion. Senate Books Still Open.
A total of 454 bills have found
their way into the two house:! so

j' After an avalanch of bills, reach

I of representatives Friday by mem-
' bers who were under the impres
sion that it was the last day in
which bills could be submitted
without special permission from
the committee on legislation! a
new day of grace was granted.
Monday will be still available for
this purpose.
The question arose as to whether
the twenty day limit for filing of
bills expired Saturday or Sunday:
and if Sunday, then, that being a
holiday, the time would lap over to
the following day. By vote of the
house it was determined that Mon
day should be considered the end
of the twenty-day period.

that they have bills in course of;

required to pay a 12 per cent tai
on her exports, this tax calculated,
on the basis of Oermany exports,
in 1913, would total a little more
than 1.500,000,000 gold marks. The
plan submitted would place the
task of collecting I he tax on the al
lied reparations commlsison.
Discounts Provided.
It is understood that for the
purpose of Inducing (lermany tot
pay off her reparations debt as
rapidly as possible she would he
allowed discounts on her annual
layments. These discounts would,
be fixed at 8 per cent the first two
years, six per cent the two follow
ing and five per cent the remain
ing 38 years.
Ah a guarantee against Germany
defaulting on her payment the
committee recommended that In.
Huch an event German c.uatomw
might be seized and new or la

prejudice to any measure mo mn

While this solution of the knotty
reparation problem did not appear
to arouse enthusiasm here today. It
;it least satisfied French opinion.
The text of the agreement wan
completed too la'e to permit ot an
extended analysis, but Paris news
papers were generally agreed that
it satisfied all viewpoints without
sacrificing the desires of any na
