Youth Suspected of
Staying Premier of
Spain Under Arrest

Madrid, March 9.-Police search
Tor the assassin who shot and IA
tally wounded Premier Eduardo
Dato last night has resulted in one
arrest and an order for detention
OF all motorcycles and automobiles.
A youth named Julian is held as
a suspect. An official report says
the assassins are believed to have
been syndicalists.
Witnesses of the shooting say
two motorcycles were employed,
one blocking the premier's auto
mobile as. it approached his resi-
dence, and that the other carried
the assassins.
Count De Bugallal, minister of
the interior, will act as premier
until King Alphonso appoints a
successor to Premier Dato. Wis
count D'Eza,. war minister, will
assume the marine portfolio which
also was held by Dato.
Public functions throughout
Spain have been suspended and the
populace is horror stricken by the
assassination.
Senior Dato died in a dispensary.
Physicians found that one bullet
entered his forehead and passed
through the head. Another bullet
went through both jaws and a
third entered his back almost
directly behind the heart. His hat
was pierced by several bullets.
Sonora Dato and her three
daughters arrived at the hospital
too late to see the premier alive.

Gasoline Tax
May Be Found
Unconstitutional

That the emergency clause pro-
viding fora tax on gasoline con-
tanned in the oregon motor vehicle
law recently passed by the legisla-
ture will be imperative after May
.25, is the opinion of Judge
Bingham OF department No. 2 Of
the circuit court.
Judge Bingham bases his opin-
ion on the decision of the supreme
court in the case OF e. M. Briedwell
against w. @. Henderson, which
was appealed TO the supreme court
from Yamhill county and concerns
the possession of an automobile.
The decision reads in part: "The
plaintiff alleges that the Oregon
motor vehicle law Is unconstitution-
al by the reason of the fact that
section "A therein declares an emer-
gency and contravenes section la
OF article XI OF the constitution OF
Oregon providing that the legisla-
ture shall not declare an emergency
in any act regulating taxation or
exemption
THE only effect" the decision
goes on to state. the non-observ-
ance, II II be such, OF the provision
Of the constitution referred TO,
would be to eliminate section ~ OF
the motor vehicle law containing
the emergency clause"
