Wculd Stop Secret Agreement
Between Paving Companies

The supporters of the bills to curb
the paving trust will go to bet for their
measures on the floor Of the senate Mon
day afternoon.
That is the program agreed upon by
the senate roads and highways commit
tee at meeting yesterday afternoon,
when A. j. Hill, manager Of the War
ren Construction company, and r. W.
Montague, attorney for Warren Broth
ers company, appeared before the COM
mittee and protested against the pass
age Of the bills.
The committee members agreed to
meet at noon Monday and take one
more look at the bills as amended and
then sign up on the reports, either for
or against the bills. There are four
bills and it is likely that there will
be two reports on all Of them, one re.

These four bills have been introduced

HARD SURFACE ROADS
FOR FEEDER Highways
Delegates From Mt. Angel And
SCOTS Mills Districts Want
Paving Now.

The first energetic impetus was Civ
en- the matter of road improvement in
Marion county yesterday when big
delegation of representative farmers
and business men met with the coun-
ty commissioners at the court house
and also held conference at the Com
mercial club rooms for the purpose Of
discussing ways and means for bring
ing the question before the taxpayers
of the county. The body was made up
largely of residents from the Mt. An
gel and Scots Mills districts. with a
number from other parts of the coun-
ty. The body was unanimous and en-
thusiastic with regard to the project,
which is a comprehensive one in the
inception. 1t proposes the bonding of
the county to the amount of $1,000
900 if necessary, in order to hard sur
face the main travelled roads connect
ing the various rural centers. This
would mean, as a rough estimate, 80
miles Of road improvement at the rate
Of approximately $4,000 a mile.
It will be recalled that this question
was brought up at special election
two or three years ago, and at that
time there was strong opposition
vote from the farmers on the bond is
sue, probably because of the assump-
tion that the greater part Of the mon
ey was to be spent on trunk highways.

FIRST GOVERNING BODY
BY Fred S. Ferguson

Omitted Press staff correspondent
Paris, Feb. S.-The initial govern
ing body of the league of nations will
be an executive committee of seven
one representative for each of the
five great powers and two for the
smaller countircs-it was learned from
a reliable source today.
This agreement is said to have been
contained in one of the twenty two
articles of the constitution, half of
which are officially accepted by the
special committee on the league Of
nations. 1t would indicate that the
minor powers lost their contention for
larger representation on the executive
committee.
With continued progress at the two
sessions scheduled for today and a
meeting for tomorrow night, it was be-
lieved the draft would be ready for
presentation to the general peace con-
gress early next week.
The committee working on interna-
tionalization of waterways will get
down to business next week. One Of its
first subjects will be the question of
whether the Rhine is to be an open
waterway or placed under d commits,
sion similar to that which will control
the Danube.
