Dor wood, chief engineer for tb Union Oil Company, did not wrr to convince the members of the City Council's Investi srattns; committee, at lt session yes terday afternoon, that there Is no dan cer from fire or explosions In storage tanks. They so expressed themselves after hearlnic his argument concerning the plana for rehabilitation of the vreckU plant on East Salmon afreet. In the rentral business section of the East Side. "I want to say now, so that you will not think that I am Intending; to fa vor your plans, that I never can rote In conscience to have your tanks lo cated In the same place and In the same manner that they were." said Councilman Baker, chairman of the committee. "Iwant to srlve your com pany a full hearing, but I don't want you to tblnk that I have changed my Mas about there being danger in an oil plant. There Is an element of dan ger in them. Protection In View. "Now. as a member of this commit tee. I have do desire whatever to work a hardship upon oil companies, but right now this committee has a duty to perform and we want to protect the Interests of the city properly, so that there will never be an occasion tor re rret on our part or for criticism by the people. , "From all I have heard about oil tanks. I think they are safe when suf ficiently Isolated." said Councilman 'Wat kins. Councilman Burgard expressed the' belief that the oil tanks should not be allowed In the central section of the city. Chief Engineer Ho r wood was present with copies of his plans for the pro posed new plant of his company. These he exhibited to the members and to Acting Fire Chief Laudenkloa. to whom they were finally referred for a re port. Plans Said to Be Safe. The plans, as shown, are said by En gineer Ivrwood to be of the latest pattern and to provide absolute safe ty against fire and explosion. The tanks are to be built not less than six feet above ground and plenty of ven tilation Is called for In the roof of tanks, that any gases generated may have a means of escape. "There Is not as much danger In these tanks, constructed after these plans, as there is in two-thirds of your mercantile houses," declared Mr. Dor wood. "I know that there Is no dan ger whatever In them, for we have given this subject long and careful consideration and are building our new liouses and tanks according to Scien tific plan." "Why didn't you make some recom mendations as to alterations In the F.ast Side tanks. If you knew they were Improperly constructed?" asked Councilman Baker. , "Well. we were making some changes." replied Mr. Dorwood. "We have been altering some of our tanks and did not get to that one In time." A communication to the committee from City Attorney Grant, In regard to use vf an oil tank by the Portland Gas at Coke Company, was considered and t.-.e committee decided to Inspect the tank, which holds about 4000 barrels of 01L Permits were recommended for the Damascus Creamery Company. P. J. McDonald and others for furl oil tanks, to be Installed under the direction of the Fire Chief.

If the policemen want them." said Waldemar Se'on yesterday afternoon, when the police committee of the Executive Board was discussing the advisability t-f i-hansrtnt; the style of headgear for the department. It was decided by the committee to Instruct Chief Plover to put the refer endum into iteration In t!ie depart ment for tie turot.e of permitting the tiaiformed branch to determine whether they dtslre to wear the military caps. Introduced by Sis Slchel nearly two years atio. or whether they prefer to go back to helmets. Chairman Coffey brought the subject to the attention of the committee by saying that he had heard many com plaints about the caps; that they are too hot In the Summer and too oold In the Winter and that they do not suit the patrolmen very well. A vole will be taken by the patrolman and the ma jority will decide which hall be worn. $340,000 CHECK IS SENT Government Prepare to Close Deal for Postal Site.

Having decided to act on the sug gestion of Mayor Rushlight and place those having charge of playgrounds under civil service, the Municipal Civil fcarvle Commission yeataxdajr morning MPfl S5IQN WEAK gave grave conslderstlon to the cor rect designation for them under the proposed classification. After determining on the first 1m portant point, to have them work under civil service rules the three montns oui of II which they are employed, the next question was as to the proper designation. It was voted unanimously to call them supervisors. Mayor Rushlight called attention of the Commissioners to the numerou temporary appointments that exist, and asked that examinations be held to supply eligiblrs for permanent ap pointments to all vacancies. This ap plies largely to the office of Building Inspector. I'nder the new code there are a number of positions called for that are unfilled at present. Oeorge nit and R.

Championing treated wood blocks as one of the best, if not the best pave ment, and declaring that Portland Is overlooking one of the greatest possi ble Industries by neglecting to use these blocks for street Improvements, J. N. Teal yesterday mailed to Mayor Rush light a letter setting forth facts and figures for his consideration. Mayor Rushlight believes wood blocks are a good pavement also. In a recert Interview he so expressed him self. hi-i esked about the contract awarded to the Carbollneum Company for paving East Morrison street, from East Water street to lnlon avenue. In his lfftt-r Mr. Teal says: 1 iakJ C. 1. burty uf ta'.llng your stten- ttun u .-. utjc-t will on:iy if the serious ait pri-r-spt consideration of all our city ufT!cL:s and cltixens senerally as well that i t the use of treated wood blocks for pav la. froperly treated and properly laid I have ao hesitancy In saying wood blocks maka an Ideal strerc Tint fact If m longer open to question. ttal.ticM are tw-iy atall aol and 1 liate ft- doubt lj; ttliut tha engineering dlarlmcnt lias ua;a as to method ot treatment oo hand.

L..... ....... LAND BOARD HEARS TS Settlers Tell Their Grievances Over Working of Irriga tion Projects. SOME COMPANIES BLAMED Officials Return From Inspection of Projects In Southern and Cen tral Oregon Much of Com plaint Hard to Adjust. 6ALEM. Or., July 13. (Special.) Red-faced and sunburned, but still In the ring, members of the State Land Board and tbe Desert Land Board re turned this morning from a trip through Southern and Central Oregoa, where they have been Inspecting the various projects. Though In many cases they found dissatisfaction and contention among the settlers over some of the Carey act projects, nevertheless the country will support as many people as Western Oregon farming regions when It Is de veloped, according to State Treasurer Kay. The boards. Including Governor TV est, State Treasurer Kay, Attorney-Oeneral Crawford and State Engineer Lewis, left Salem on the evening of July 4. "Our first stop was at Klamath Falls." said State Treasurer Kay. Thence we went by automobile to Lakevlew. Thence we visited Warner Valley, where there Is a proposed Irri gation project. 60 miles from Lakevlew, "While the company there has ex pended 150.000 on preliminary surveys no actual work has been done. It Is my Impression, although this is not the opinion of the Board In general, that this project Is not practical. It will be necessary tp bring the water over 1U mues or. rougn, xiuiy country aiiu iu develop the land will cost the settlers approximately 70 or 180 an acre. When It Is taken Into, consideration that the land will cost that much and 'is 60 miles from Lakevlew, the nearest market I believe tne land will coat more than the crops will return to the settlers. . "At Paisley we Inspected the project of the Portland Irrigation Company, Including 20,000 acres which the com pany has been working on for nine or ten years. Only the preliminary sur veys have been completed, however. We heard many complaints from the settlers, whose universal opinion seemed to be that the Board should cancel the contracts with this company. "Regardless of these difficulties this Is one of the most favorable projects which we visited. It Is Inexpensive to secure water for the lands and It Is easy to water all parts of the land. Those parts which are watered produce excellent crops. "Among the other projects Inspected were the Deschutes and the Central Oregon project and we went through Agency Springs. "We found on our trip that many of the companies have not been properly looked after In the past and that there Is now cause for much complaint that will be difficult to adjust. Many of the contracts made are not favorable to the settlers. The object of the trip was to give the new Board an Insight Into some of the difficulties contended with and to give us a better knowledge of con dltlons so that we may pass on these irrigation matters more Intelligently, WEEKS WILL GIVE OP KLAMATH IXDIAX SLAYER 6 AYS HE WILL- SURRENDER. Eight Must Answer to Charge of Selling; Liquor to Redskins on Klamath Reservation. Prim Weeks, a Klamath Indian. In dicted by the Federnl grand Jury for t!;e murder of a fellow redskin. Ille Harding, yesterday notified the United States authorities from tho Klamath Agency that he would surrender If assured he would not be placed m Jan. He was promptly notified to proceed to Klamath Falls and call upon the Town Marshal. In the meantime the authorities at Klamath Falls have been notified and tliey will be prepared to overpower Weeks and place him In confinement when he appears. preliminary to bringing him to Portland for trial. On July 3 Weeks Is alleged to have shot and fatally wounded Harding In a drunken quarrel, his victim dying three days later. Weeks, armed with a S0-30 rifle and a supply of whisky, escaped Into the woods and until his voluntary surrender was Indicated yesterday, the authorities feared fur ther trouble in seeking his capture. fight white men have been Indicted by the Federal grand Jury, charged with carrying liquor on the Klamath Indian reservation and disposing of it to the Indians. They will be brought tp trial before the 'next trial Jury that Is assembled. Tae .minimum penalty Is a fine of f 100 and 0 days' Imprison ment. -We experlent l a great deal of trou ble by these operations on the part of white men," said Ed son Watson, superintendent of the Klamath Indian reservation of. Klamath Agency, who waa In the city as a witness before the grand Jury yesterday. "The whites procure liquor In quantities ranging from a pint to a quart and make a business of bringing It onto the reser vation and disposing of It to the In dians at an advance of about 2i cents over the purchase price of each flask. It Is d"e to this Illegal sale of liquor that the great bulk of trouble on the reservation results. But for whisky the Indians would be comparatively peaceable and law-abiding. "Sale by the Indians of their inherited lands in the reservation has begun. Over 400 patents have already been ap proved and nearly as many more await favorable action by the department. These lands sell for from $800 to $3600 per 160 acres, depending on the charac ter of the land. The proceeds derived from these sales are placed in the bank to the credit of the Indian disposing of the property and are expended In making Improvements on allotted lands retained by the man making the sale. Sometimes an allowance not exceeding $26 a month Is made for the use of the Indians." Municipal Funds Tied Vp. Whether or not an Incorporated municipality can Inaugurate a pay-as- I MANY COMPLAIN you-go policy and apply, the caaliXJuno 30. reoelpts of Ihe municipality In the fur therance of that policy and at the same time disregard warrants outstanding and unpaid Is the question Involved in a suit filed by A. M. Abel against the town of Condon. Gilliam County, in the United States Court yesterday. It Is contended by the complainant, who holds over $2000 of the unpaid war rants, that all such obligations must be paid in the order of their priority and that some provision for the payment of such obligations must be made before the municipality can apply its cash receipts to the payment of more recently contracted debts. Judge Bean granted a temporary in junction restraining the Condon offi cials from making any further cash payments on new claims. Hearing on the question of whether or not the injunction shall be made permanent has been set for July 22. It is alleged in the complaint that there are outstanding warrants Issued by the town -of Condon aggregating between $6000 and $10,000 while the APPOINTMENT TO THE NAVAL ACADEMY WO.V IS TEST BY PORTLAND BOY.

' Mr. Struble won the appointment through a competi tive examination, receiving the highest standing among several candidates. The appointment was made formally by Representative Lafferty. Young Struble was graduated from the Lincoln High School last month. He was active In literary and athletic work. He was president of the Tologeion Society and a member of the baseball team. city now has $6385 each in its treasury. Some of the outstanding warrants In the hands of the complainant and on which the Suit is based, were Issued as far back as March. 1910. ' W. H.

Union Delegate Complains to Execu tive Board and Sentiment Is Against Force's Trumpets. Charging that members of the Port land Police Department band accept mioney for their services, while working for the city and wnue using city time, and that they "take the bread from the mouths of those dependent upon the mu sical profession for a livelihood." C. atoll, secretary of the Musicians' union and member of the Workingmen's Politi cal Club, appeared before the police committee of the Executive Board yes terday afternoon and asked that the members take steps to correct the abuses alleged. After discussing the charges the com mittee decided to postpone action for two weeks, in which time a conference will be held with Mayor Rushlight and Chief Slover, to work out a solution of the problem. Secretary Stoll declared that ne knows of Instances where the policemen in the band have taken money for their serv ices, when they were supposed to be working for the city. They have been active in taking work away from the regular musicians, he said, and they have taken awoy a good aeai or dusi- nets already. He said that be and others interested had been unable to find any authority in the city charter for the maintenance of a band In the department, and he believed thet the band exists In defiance of charter and civil service regulations, which are to the effect that no policemen shall en gage in any other work. The muslglans nave no aesire to see this band out out of commission," said Mr. Stoll, "but we do insist that they shall not play for money and that they shall confine their operations to the de partment exclusively. They have been taking money for their work; they have taken the bread and butter from the mouths of professional musicians and have gone so far as to dress up civilians in nollce uniforms on occasions to fill up the required number. We maintain that these things are contrary to law." Chairman Coffey and the other mem bers of the committee expressed the be lief that the police band Is out of Its proper channels In playing for any un official occasion, and it Is believed they will order this nractlce stopped. Chief Slover said that he had already decided to order that no more Sunday morning practices be held by the band, and he agreed with Mr. Stoll that running a band Is not police business. A hill for 50l rent for tne use or rooms in tha Union bloc was called to the at tention of the committee. This has been naid every month for more than a year by order of the former police commit tee.

ENVOY RIGHT ON GROUND Crmmerclal Clubs and Other Bodies of Coast Work for City and Con. ventlon to Be Delnged With Telegraphic , Invitations. Encouraged by the winning of the Elks convention for Portland in 1912, the Commercial Club has completed ar rangements for a campaign in Atlan tic City next week to obtain the 1912 convention of the Commercial Law League of America, an organization having In Its membership many thou sands of commercial attorneys. To assure victory in the campaign the club has delegated Gus C. Moser. who was potent In winning the Elks con vention, to go to Atlantic City and ex tend Portland's invitation. Armed with letters from the Governor of Oregon, the Mayor of Portland and practically all of the Coast Commercial Clubs and Industrial organizations from L'os An geles to Vancouver, B. C. Mr. Moser has telegraphed that he is certain of victory. The convention, while not one of the large ones of tho country, is considered one of the most Important because of the prominence of the league's mem bers and the fact that they demand the best of everything. It is said the convention, If won for Portland, will bring no fewer than 6000 persons to the city and the attendance may run as high as 8000. Moser Ready to Convince. Mr. Moser Is on the way to Atlantio City, where he will begin a campaign at once. While Mr. Moser is at work in -Atlantic City the entire Pacifia Coast Is helping Portland win the convention. R. W. Raymond, of the convention de partment of the Commercial Club, says he has been busy for several days and has obtained the support of the fol lowing Industrial organizations: Tacoma Commercial Club, Walla Walla Commercial Club, the Seattle Commercial Club, Southern California Development League, the Helena De velopment League. "Vancouver Island (B.tC.) Development League. Spokane Chamber of Commerce, Tacoma Cham ber of Commerce, League of Southern Idaho Commercial Clubs, Seattle Cham ber of Commerce and several others. Letters containing the keys to the state and city were sent yesterday to Mr. Moser by Governor West of Ore gon. Mayor Rushlight of Portland and a hearty invitation was sent by Gov ernor Hay, of Washington. All of the commercial organizations have ar ranged to send simultaneous telegrams to the convention Monday night. This, it is believed, will do a great deal to ward winning the fight for Portland. Bar Also Ass'sts. The Multnomah Bar Association through President Harrison Allen has also taken a part in the campaign. A letter requesting the commercial at torneys to visit Portland in 1912 was sent yesterday morning and telegrams probably will follow. Portland has a number of competi tors In the race, the principal one of which is Chicago. Buffalo. N. Y., and Kansas City. Mo., are also in the race. Portland lost the convention of the commercial attorneys last year by a drawing contest which was made neces sary by a tie vote with Chicago. The high council of the organization re ceived the vote from the convention, which showed an equal vote for both cities. They proceeded to draw lots with the names of Portland, unicago, Kansas City. Atlantic City and other towns, all on slips of paper in a nac Atlantic City won. DAILY sIKTEOKOLOGICAL REPORT. PORTLAND, July 13. Maximum tempera ture. VI degree; minimum temperature. 68 degrees.
