He had been In the hospital at liaise since the days of the war. tukiug treatments there. He fail ed to improve, however, and out of his compensation he saved enough to buy himself a second hand car. He started for California, hoping that a change In climate might prove beneficial. His trip was uneventful until three miles north of Eugene, when he picked up a hiker along the highway. In Eugene they ate, and Joyce paid for both. He wanted to stay in Eugene for the night, but his companion, whose name Jovce never learned, Insisted that they drive on. South ofi Eueene, the unknown "buddy" lammed a revolver In Joyce's ribs and threatened to kill him unless he obeyed instantly. The man Joyce had befrh nded. fobbed him of his car, tile, $37.50 in cash -he had saved, and a gold watch, valued at S4B. He then pllched Joyce out of the car on his head, and drove the car southward. Joyce walked on Into Cottage Grove, and was practically exhaust ' ert when he reported there. He no tified the officers, who are seek ing a trace of the highwayman. The robbery occurred last eve ning, between 8:30 and 9 o'clock. The robber Is dressed in light wool trousers, a dark coat, a dark blue shirt and a lleht cap. He is about 5 feet 8 inches In height, and weighs about 160 pounds.

Meyers, superintendent In charge of the construction of the North Umpqua road, returned thia morning from Portland with the an nouncement that the Bureau ot Publto- -roads has allotted -enough money to the North Umpqua pro ject to complete the construction work to Steamboat creek. This is very welcome news to residents of Douglas county, who feel that la finishing construction to Steam boat the greatest step In the event ual completion of the road has been taken. The Bureau of Public Roads, ac cording to Mr. Meyers, found small amounta remaining in several pro Jecta for which allotments were made, and from these enough money has been secured to insure the completion of the North Ump qua road to the goal set for this year, and within 60 days the road will be finished to Steamboat ranger station.

By cut ting down expenses all along the line, the Veterans Bureau, which has required nearly half a billion dollars to operate in the laat few years returned to the treasury $67,901,000 of its appropriation of 1481,957,898 for the fiscal year end ing June 30, last. The saving, a detailed report of which has just been made to Di rector Lord of the budget by Frank T. Hines, director of the bureau, was made despite an Increase In compensation payments for disa bility, and death benefits from $115,494,991 for the fiscal year 1924-25 to 1129,597,457 last year. The increase of more than $14,-000.000- was due largely to liberal izing provisions of the World War Veterans act of last year. Further economies are promised by Director Hines whose return last June came close to being half of the total remitted by all govern ment departments. The $405,713,559 appropriation for the current fiscal year la ex pected by bureau officials to be ma terially reduced In revising prellm inar yestlmates for 1926-37 In entl clpatlon of further cuts In adminis trative costs and salaries to $18, 728,205 for $4,471,878 days.

Op position to interference by the fed eral government with atate. control of fish and game waa voiced be fore the United Statea senate pub lic landa aub-commlttce here at s continuation of s hearing upon the question ot the use of the public domain. Assertion waa also made that Diamond Ijike. which la In the Umpqua National Forest, should be given to the atate of Oregon, and ahould not be made s part of Crater Lake National Park. H. II. Clifford, of Canyon City, chairman of the atate game com mission, and A. E. Burghduff. for mer atate game warden, both ex pressed their views. Clifford declared that "the peo ple of Oregon are opposed to any further encroachment by the feder al government on our game control." "We feel the atate Is much bel ter able to regulate these things than they are In Washington, he said. ' "The attempt to put through congress the take and Harney counties game refuge bill, and then turn the manageme.it of tho re treat over to the forestry bureau was opposed bv every true Bports man In the state. Tho Canynn City man declared that when the bill was defeated, the atate formed an 800.000 acre reserve for the protection of sage hens and antelope In Southern Ore gon. He atated there are at least 20.000 antelope In this area now, and that, there Is a permanent closed season on them. Rut. the sage hen Is being exterminated, al though a five year closed season on these birds haa been declared. Regardlni Diamond take, which Is in the Umpqua National forest. Clifford stated, "Th- inclusion of this lake Into a national park pre cludes the state from having any control over Its fishing or game. Fourteen years ago there was not a fish In this hike, nnw II la thn fishing lake In Oregon, made sole ly through work of stocking It by the wnrk nf the Oregon fish and game commission. "It Is the greatest eg taking body nf water In the stale, and should lie kept by the state fur this purpose. Through eggs chief ly secured in this lake. Oregon now has more fish in Its lanes ami streams than when thn white pian first came to thia country. Oregon has the most effective fish and game laws of any western state. Our deer are nn the In crease w have a very abundant supply. The game law violations In Oregon are down to a minimum, the people realizing that our wild animnf life Is nne of our greatest assets for tourists and for our own sportsmen." Clifford opposed th" creation of more national parks, and declared it la not necessary for the federal government to aid Ihe slate In the mailer of wild life protection savo In cases of migratory birds. hpcaklng as a Grant county rancher, he opposes Ihe forest service getting control of any more lands at the expense nf the cattle Industry. He thinks the proposed new law for leasing grazing lands should contain a clause that will prntect the wild life on these lands. Ilurghiluff sneaking, he said, for the sportsmen of Ihe slate, de nounced the prniHiHal to make Ihe Diamond take district a part nf the Crater take National Park. He detailed the hixtnry nf fish planting In Diamond take for egg taking purposes, and said that now some 20.oiiii.mK) rainbow trout eggs valued at about Itii.nno are taken from thn lake annually. This num ber, he said, whs enough to keep stocked every lake and stream In the entire national foieat groups In this stale. Burxliduff stated there are very few lakes in the Cascades that can be used for spawning purposes, and that Diamond take la the beat one for trout on Ihe coast. He told of the efforts made by Stephen A. Mather, director of national narks to hinder the egg taking operations of the lake. In order to aid his . plana In gelling Diamond Into Cra ter Lake National Forest, these ef forts being made through the for. estry aervlce. Mr. Mather la not satisfied with having icontrol of the national parks here but now wanta thf'na tlonal forest control aa well, re marked Senator Ralph H. Camer on, of Arizona, one of the commit tee members. The ex-game warden said Dia mond Lake draws more fishermen to Oregon than any other body of water In the atate, and that earn summer there t.re more foreign cars at the lake than Oregon onea. With Clifford, he oppose the reposed federal public shooting grounds bill because It takes from the statea many rights over hunt. era and wild game. B. Glldner, owner of s trad ot timber In the fnreat reserve south ot Collage Grove, made a formal protest against treatment he Is al leged to have received from the forestry bureau and Anderson and Middleton, timber operators who are taking out S75.OO0.00O feet ot logs from the reserve. He said the government will not force the opeiatora to haul bis logs although the railroad la aald to run in front of the Glldner landa.' He thinka he haa 20.000.000 feet ot limber on his property, whereas the government cruise showed mnch less. He Inferred that an effort waa being made. I t fur co him to aiil his timberfor leas than he waa asking for It. C. M. (Iranger, federal district forester for Oregon and Washing ton, denied the government Is try ing lo hold un Olldner. He aaid Ihe trouble Is that a largo part ot Glldner'a timber la so situated that It cannot he logged to advantage, therefore the company only wants to buy that part of the timber it can use. H It Is forced lo take all of It, It will pay a much lower figure for 'the lot. having much waste, than lit would pay for the part that ran be used," explained Granger.' "It is ail a question oi oeins awn w get the timber out." - Fred Ames .assistant district forester, talked on Incessantly a national forests and parka ot Ore gon and Washington.
