SPOKANE SHOOTERS

Local shooters lose by narrowest
margin in contest with Spokane Rifle
Club. Each man fired ten shots prone
and ten sitting; scores as follows:

We think that with little more prac-
tice Eureka can trim them, and look
forward to another match little later.
Some Of the Eureka boys are all ex-
cited trying to shoot perfect scores in
the state matches. All targets must be
fired not later than Jan. 31st. We hope
to see Eureka near the top.

gust which crashed her stern into
the ground as she was being made
ready for a holiday flight with Is

The George Washington Birth

called off on account of the
mishap. The accident was termed

same Preparations Conference will be

Senate Group Against Borah
Plan to Reduce Salaries
and Mileage.
.BR0OkHART TO CONDUCT
STUDY OF DEPARTMENTS
Remaining Measure Provides Slid
ing Scale to Lower Workers
Compensation.

The Senate Civil Service Committee
voted today to make an unfavorable re-
port on the two Borah bills seeking 10
reduce the salaries and mileage of mem
bers of Congress and instructed a sub
committee to make a thorough investi-
cation Of the question OF salary reduc-
tions throughout the Government serv-
ice
The committee announced these de-
clSions, through Chairman Dale OF Yer
mont, after going over the several
measures drafted by Senator Borah,
Republican, of Idaho. at an executive
session lasting nearly two hours this
morning.
Will Report Bills.
The two bills the committee decided
to report adversely would have done
the following things: Reduce the
Speaker of the House. the Vice Presi-
dent and members of the cabinet from
$4,000 to $4,000 a year; the members
OF the House and Senate, delegates
from territories and commissioners
from Porto Rico and the Philippine
Island, from $4,000 to $4,000 a year,
and eliminate the travelling mileage of
members.
When the bills were referred to the
Civil Service Committee, Senator Dale
assured Senator Borah that the COM
mittee would take up the bills without
delay and make some disposition of
them. He will. therefore, report the
congressional salaries bill and the mile
age bill to the Senate at the first op-
portunity with the unfavorable recon-
menoation of the committee.
Will Study Reductions.
The subcommittee appointed to in
Quire into the advisability of salary
reductions in the Government depart
ments is composed of Senators Brook
hart, Republican, OF Iowa. Kean, Re-
publican, of New Jersey. and McKellar,
Democrat, of Tennessee. Another bill
seeking to reduce the salaries of mem
bers of the Federal Farm Board was
referred to Senator George, Democrat,
Of Georgia, for study and suggested
amendments. One of the duties of the
Brookhart Subcommittee will be to look
into the other Borah bill intended to
cut on a sliding scale salaries of all
persons in the Government service
receiving $4,000 or more a year.
From $4,000 to $1,000 the reduction
would be 6 per cent; from $1,000 TO
$4,000, a 10 per cent cut, and above
$4,000 a 20 per cent cut.
Reiterating his own individual posi-
ton on the whole subject Of salary
reductions, Chairman Dale said after
the meeting:
Il am against cutting any salary one
dime"
