MAY PUT COMMISSION
MERCHANTS UNDER BOND

Salem, Ore, Feb. 4.-Responding to
complaints by fruit shippers of the
Hood River district that they have
lost heavily by false returns on con-
signments to commission merchants,
Senator Sinnott has introduced a bill
to license such merchants doing a
consignment business and requiring
them to file bond to comply with all
requirements of the law.
The bill is modelled on the Wash
ington law, and fixes a bond of $4,000
conditioned on observance of provis-
ions requiring the keeping of a cor
rect system of accounts, showing the
time of receipt and quantity of ship
ments, date of sale and to whom sold.
This will enable the tracing of ship
ments and enforcement of claims for
damages.
