At the managers meeting no new
left to the bi-annual meetings of both
managers and student representatives
1t is understood that Willamette Uni
versity is seeking admission to the
northwest conference. 1t is not posi-
Bile, however, for her case to be con-
sidered before next year.
A matter which is likely to be con-
sidered at the Portland meeting, stated
Mr.. Larson this afternoon, is the estab-
lishment of double league in basket
ball similar to the one which was tried
last spring in baseball. 1t would in
clude Whitman, Idaho and w. S. c. in
the east, and Oregon, Washington and
o. A. c. west of the mountains. The
establishment of such league is being
advocated by Whitman college though
it is thought that it will be opposed by
all other members of the conference.
Whitman seems to be the cnly institu-
tion in the conference that is failing
to make ends meet in basketball.

Question Raised Before.

The rate question was first raised i'll
it's present form at the triennial meet
ing at Buffalo in 1911. Action was
postponed until the winter, when a
special meeting of the head camp was
held in Chicago, and readjustment of
rates voted. All the rates are higher
than those hitherto prevailing, and
those for the older members Of the or
der are three to nine times higher.
Throughout the country, and especial
ly in the state of Illinois, Iowa Kansas,
and Missouri the rates were strongly
resisted. Several test cases were
brought in circuit courts, resulting in
injunctions against enforcement of the
new rates on the ground that they were
not imperative to the financial safety
of the order, that since The benefits of
the organization are mutual and reci-
procal, the rates cannot be enforced
without the consent of the majority of
the membership.

Referendum a Ruse.

The head camp in the summer of
1918 proposed referendum, submit
ting seven different rate plans for the
selection of the membership. But the
impression gained currency that the
referendum was a ruse, and the re-
suit was a vote of less than one per-
cent of the members. The executive
council had been expected to take some
action on the question at its meeting
here, but deferred it to the triennlal
convention. Opponents of the plan de-
clare the whole proposal was move
to transform the insurance plan OF the
order from fraternal to "old line.
They contend that the question Will
never be settled until this movement
has been downed and that this can
be done only by removing the present
head camp officers and "electing others
who represent the views of the mem
bership." This they will attempt to
do at the Toledo meeting.

The statement appearing in the

patients win be received until the

Whoever gave the newspaper the
statement that there were so patients
suffering with smallpox was misin-
formed. We wish TO correct this error
in order to set at rest the fears of rel
atiyes of the inmates. Furthermore.
smallpox is not dangerous disease in
the light of modern medical science,
and the greatest of precautions will be
taken to care for the affected persons
