COLUMBIA RECLAMATION IDEA ECLIPSES BOULDER DAM PLAN Navigable River to Cnnadian Boundary and Creation of New Agricultural Area of 2,00'). 000 Acres Aims of Project to Be Urged Upon Congress Cost Would Be Defrayed by Sale of Power. RKATTI.K, Wash., Aug. 20. (A. P.) With Ihe Moulder dam pro ject mil of the way. congress will be linked next December to under take an creii greater task the de velopment of (he mighty Columbia liver. The project would Include Ihe de velopment of at least 2.250,000 horsepower of hydro-electric power. (lie reclamation of 2,i00,mio acreB in the Columbia basin of central Washington, and the construction of locks that would make possible 1 ho navigation of the Columbia river from Ihe Pacific ocean to the Canadian border, a distance of 740 miles. First Unit Plans As Ihe I' I rut step, the Columbia Itiver Development league, repre sent lug many Washington citicH and towns, will ask for the con- slructlou of 11 power dam at Grand Coulee In central Washington and Ihe gradual reclamation of the Co- ami mat ine sine aim lease . n lumbla basin project. ter and power would pay fori the A datn LLN reel lilirb unnd nrn- en lire project. The president also duce l.liriD.OOO horsepower for sale and 1,0110,001) horsepower for pump ing water for irrigation. A dam ;if0 feet high would enable pro'duc Hon of 2.000.000 horsepower for sale und l.fioo.tniO horsepower for tumping purposes. The size ol' the dam would de pend on the report of the l ulled htatea army engineers under Maj. loliu S. Ilul lei', who have been ulanning for the development of the rher. These plans call for a -cries of power daiiiH and locks which would open the river lor ua ligation to I he border. To Pay By Power Sale -I-'rnm ihe intermit inuul line to the st-a the river drops 1.3.")0 feet. Ksfhnates place the total electric nerity possible for development at 10.000.000 horsepower. The sale of his rmwer would he expected to pay f ir the entire improvement l-ii'llHIIl. The league will ask congress to Mil pass a hill similar to the Ilouhler canyon measure,. No work would be started until a market for power was assured. Homls on the land and contracts for power would pro tect Hie Lulled Slates for funds advanced. Gravity Alternate Plan The pumping project is one of two methods suggested for the re clamation of the Columbia basin. A gravity Hy-tem has been propos ed and backed by many. Advocates of the Grand Coulee dam believe that the power project will pay for the reclamation and would be more readily accepted by congress. The cost of the 3r( foot dam and power plant and the reclamation of 2,ufa). 0(H) ncrHH Is placed at $1 K5,000,0D0 by the league. President Hoover, when secre 1 tary of commerce, said thai the Co- lumbia river should be developed Ut the earliest possible moment .hub predicted that Improvement of the river would double the popula tion of Washington.

' Germans Warn Cities of Chemical Warfare One Hundred Different Kindt of Poison ExiBt for Using In Attacks From the'Afr. I AtM'r.iatPtT'VreiM Iawri Wirt) MUNICH, Aug. 20. That chemi- cil warl'nre on a large scale Is cer- tamly coming, and the nations of Lue world had better make up t;iclr minds to face facts squarely, was the gist of a resolution passed by the German Society for Protection Auninst Air Attack when it met here. Dr. Kern of the Carinthlan Anti- Air Attack association said that there existed about 100 different kinds of war poisons, but only about tMi of them were known to the general public: the blister- raising, the corrosive, the nerve- parab zing "and the tear gases. To all of these, he Raid, there exist antidotes, but the necessity re mains to know them all and to be prepared for ail. Major Grosskreutz, air expert of the former imperial army, said that it was a flight or fancy to imagine enemy bombers coming over like clouds of locusts . Only a fraction of a country's air force, be argued, could be used effective ly at the front. He gave an instance of an air squad which protected one industrial area during the world war. Three hundred ascents were made, but only seven times did the German flyers come Into contact with the enemy, and only eight enemy planes were brought down one hit in 37 tries. Equally exaggerated In his views were the effects of attacks with ex plosive bombs, experience havi:l shown that to destroy a bullt-on area of six square miles, 10,000 tons of bombs would be needed, which would require the services of 200 day machines or 100 night machines making 100 attacks each, assuming that each machine was capable of making 100 attacks. The incendiary bomb. In his opin ion, was most to be feared by the unhappy citizens of centers open to air attacks. JOURNALISTIC INSTRUCTOR VISITOR IN ROSEBURG Edwin H.
