SALEM, Or Nov. 1. Represents
live Hle tuts taken up with Unit
ed States Attorney MyCourt, at Port
land, the matter of (lie speedy acqul
sttion by tbe Government of tte locks
at Oregon City. It aeems to nave
been tbe general Impression that
since the Uovernent and the state
provided the funds for tho purchase
of the existing locks and their repair,
there would be no further delay In
the passing of the title to the United
States.
Mr. Hawley found that persons us
ing the locks were still subjected to
the usual tolls, and he set about to
determine the cause anu nrge expe
dition in the transaction, so that ship
pers could have an open river. Mr.
McCourt advises Mr. Hawley that the
Portland Railway. Light Power
Company recently submitted an ab
stract of the titles to the lands sought
to be acquired) by the Government,
but that upon examination of ab
stracts It was found moat of the land
embraced In the property had been
Included in platted townsitet and the
plats thereof had never been placed
on record.
As the descriptions In the convey
ances referred to the tracts by lots
within these townaltea. It was Impos
sible to determine whether the land
extended over the land covered by
the locks.
The United States Attorney Teturn
ed the abstracts to the company with
the request that the"ortgtnal plats be
secured or a survey made that would
definitely Identify the property. The
company has compiled with this re
quest but a number of defects are yet
supposed to exist, these being large
ly incurable. The company has had
exclusive possession of the property
for years so title under the statute of
limitations has prooably vested, so
the War Department probably will ac
cept the Utiles in spite of the defects.
