FARM LOAN MONEY
FALLS FAR SHORT OF
NEEDS OFF
WASHINGTON. D. C April 8. It i3
expected that the Spokane farm loan
bank will receive about $8,000,000
from bonds to be sold in this month
and July, according to a letter re
ceived Thurday by Senator McNary
from the farm loan board. The board
admits, however, that this amount will
not go far in supplying the demands
of the four state3 in the Spokane dis
trict.
The letter was written with refer
ence to a request that the board send
an engineer appraiser to examine the
dam of Ochoco irrigation project, m
central Oregon, with a view of pass
ing on loan applications of settlers
under the project which long have
been pending. Engineer Appraiser
McKittrick of the Spokane bank will
be sent to the project at once to make
the examination, the board promised.
Explaining, however, the difficul
ties of meeting all of the demands
VDon the Spokane bank, the letter
says:
"The farm, loan board expects to
offer a bond issue about April 15,
at which time it is hoped to sell a
substantial amount. This, in all prob
ability, will be followed by another
issue just as fast as the country will
absorb it, probably in July. The de
mand for money is very heavy, both
in the country and in Wall street,
and even if the farm loan board, is
fortunate enough to sell a substantial
amount of bonds in April, and more
in July, that will mean not more than
$8,000,000 to 19,000,000 for the Spo
kane bank, which embraces the states
of Montana, Idaho Washington and
Oregon.
"Oregon alone would like to use the
major portion of this amount, so that j
to be perfectly frank with - you It
seems inevitable that there must be
delays in eelaning up the accum
lated and increasing demand. Our
great problem is how to discriminate
and how to spread out the money
equitably over the different states."

The announcement of this decision
was made Thursday nigit by tht

It was pointed out that, the recom

WASHINGTON, . D. C. April 8
Seven recommendations, chief among
them creation of the veterans' service
administration, to take charge of gov-
ernment relief work among ex-service
men and to be headed by a director
general, responsible directly to the
president, were contained in the re
port submitted Friday to President
Harding by his special commission in
vestigating the care of verterans. .
Charles G. Dawes of Chicago, chair
man, told the president he believed
that the . recommendations were
sound. Early action by President
Harding was expected.
Recommendation No. 1 provided for
the new agency and gave it. jurisdic
tion over the bureau of war risk in
surance, the rehabiliation division cf
the federal board for vocational edu
cation and such part of the public
health service necessary to care fo
disabled veterans. It also asked that
a director-general assume charge with
full authority.
This provision would permit the
lease or purchase of necessary hospi
tal buildings.
. Care was suggested in the farming
of legislation creating the adminis
tration in order to avoid present in
consistencies. Request was made that
no statutory limitations be placed on
the director-general as to the number
and salaries of his employes.
Number 3 said that pending enact
ment of new laws. Secretary of the
Treasury Mellon should Issue orders
to the heads of the public health and
war risks bureaus authorizing the lat
ter bureau to take charge of the . pub
lie health activities and personnel en
gaged in providing medical care for
veterans. The effect would be to con
solidate these bureaus under one head
by executive order without delay.
"'It cannot be too strongly empha
sized," the report said, "that tlie de
plorable failure on the part of the
government properly to care for the
disabled veterans is due largely to an
imperfect organization of government
al effort. There Is no one in control
of the whole situation.
"Independent agencies by mutual
agreement endeavor to co ordinate
their action, but in such efforts the
joint action is too often modified by
minor considerations and there is al
ways lacking complete co-operation.
'The summoning of this commission
by you Is an answer to the country
that you are convinced of the vital
nature of this problem and that you
are determined to secure a prompt
and effective solution.
The man to whom thiP important
mission is entrusted by you will re
ceive the whole-hearted and enthubl
astic support and co-operation of all
veterans and all other patriotic
Americans, -'
"No cabinet officer or assistant sec
retary burdened with other duties
should be the one to whom the man
charged with the welfare of the dis
abled saviors should report. He
should report directly to the presi
dent."
The report was submitted as the
unanimous agreement of the commis
sion and Brigadier-General Sawyer,
the president's personal -representative
on the commission.

NEWBERG, Or., April 7. Residents
of this section were aroused about 10
o'clock Wednesday night by a sound
like a loud explosion and a simultan
eous concussion which shook houses
and buildings for miles around. The
cause of the phenomenon has not been
determined although many believe it
was the result of a meteor striking
Parrett mountain, two and one-half
miles east of the city.
This theory wa3 advanced by Henry
McGuire, who lives northeast of New
berg. He said he had .gone out on the
back porch of his home to get a drink
of water and. that he saw the meteor
fall. The noise, he said, followed an
instant later.
The same theory was upheld by a
party of autoists. who said they were
near the mountain at the time, and
that the concussion was so violent
that the gravel on the road was shak
en as though the earth had been
struck with a mighty hammer.
Parrett mountain is a peak near Rex
and is about two miles long and 1200
feet high. Mr. McGuire thought the
meteor hit between Rex and the
mountain and quite close. tf the high
way. Efforts to find traces of a me
teor on the mountain have failed. Mr.
McGuire said the visitant gave off a
bright blue light as It flashed across
