"ACTUAL SETTLERS" FEW llneli or Holdings Valuable Chiefly lor Timber Purchase and Clas- Elficatlon by Government Have Been Suggested. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, June 29. It will be several weeks before the Interior Department and Department of Justice determine on a recommendation to be submitted to Congrress outlining the disposition which the Government wishes made of the 2,300.000 acres comprising the un sold portion of the Oregon & California Railroad land grant. The Supreme Court having directed that none of the unsold lands shall be disposed of by the railroad com pany until Congress has had an opportunity to say how they shall be disposed of, the Secretary of the In terior and the Attorney General agree St is incumbent on them to submit a recommendation to Congress. Con gress can act on its own initiative or it can act on the recommendation made by the two Cabinet officers directly interested. two municipalities with Portland. No formal action by the Portland School Board will be necessary. The schools of the two suburbs automatically come under the wing of the local school ad ministration. St- Johns will add more than 1628 school children to Portland's total. They are now housed in three elementary and one high school, in which 32 teach ers are employed. Linnton has 316 school children, one school and five teachers. The merging of the schools has raised a legal question concerning the provid ing of facilities for certain pupils who live in the St. Johns and Linn ton school districts, but not in the limits of the areas annexed to Portland, a situation due to the fact that the school districts embrace wider territories than the mu nicipalities. Attorneys for the School Board have been asked for an opinion on the question. "It is thought likely that the cpunty boundary board will be asked to adjust the difference, either taking the outside school district territory into the St. Johns and Linnton limits or otherwise. In the latter case it would be neces sary for the School Board to provide facilities for the pupils as at present for at least two years, as the law re quires, in order that school buildings may be erected. RUSH FOR TICKETS ON 300 OBTAIN BOOK PLA.V CARDS FOR CHAUTAUftUA. Government Will Be Caution. There are several reasons why the Government will proceed cautiously iu this matter. In the first instance the decision of the Supreme Court is of require considerable study to determine the exact meaning of the court. Second ly, the court, in its opinion, mildly chides the Government counsel in the land grant case for being too mild in their alternate prayer and expressly says that the mere requirement that the railroad company sell its reraainr lng lands in accordance with the terms of the granting acts is not enough, considering past violations of the law. The Government primarily sought for feiture and. falling to get that, asked that the railroad company hereafter be required to observe strictly the terms of the law. The court stipulated that before the railroad company Is permitted to sell any of its remaining lands Congress rhall have opportunity to say how those lands shall be disposed of. Taxes Make Laid Burdensome. It is pointed out by one of the offi cials of the Department of Justice, familiar with this litigation, that the railroad company, under the decree of the Supreme Court, can now realize not more than $2.50 an acre on its 2.300.000 acres, unless Congress authorizes their sale at a greater figure. The lands having been held subject to taxation. It therefore is in the Interest of the railroad company to dispose of them as quickly as possible, if authority is given; for the longer the lands are held the greater burden they become, because of taxes which the state can levy and collect. It is further pointed out by this of ficial that it will be difficult for the railroad company now to sell its lands in strict compliance with the law that is. to actual settlers. Some of the land is not attractive to settlers and the most heavily timbered por tions are said to be not of a character to invite settlement in the sense in which that term usually is interpreted. The bulk of the lands in controversy are attractive now chiefly because of their timber or their speculative value. "Actual Valnc" Plan SnKKested. One of the suggestions taken under advisement by the Department of Jus tice is that Congress authorize the railroad company to sell its land In tracts larger than 160 acres to a pur chaser, and that the "actual settlers " clause be repealed. This, it is shown, would permit the company to sell the timber lands to lumber companies which would be able to develop them. If this suggestion is made. It probably will be coupled with a recommenda tion that the lands be sold at some thing like their true market value, and that all over J2.50 an acre received from the sales be turned over to the Government. Federal Parcnige Proposed. Another suggestion which the de partments have under consideration is that Congress make an appropriation to buy the unsold lands outright, and In their entirety at $2.60 an acre, thus riving the railroad company its full legal compensation. Coupled with such a recommendation would go one of two alternative suggestions, first, that the forested lands so recovered by the Gov ernment be embraced in a forest reser vation, and, second, that the lands, when taken over by the Government, be classified and thrown open under ap propriate land laws. There will be a strong plea by the Forest Service to have the lands bought outright by the Government and placed in a forest reserve. It' being the contention of that bureau that if this be done, the state will, in lieu of taxes. get 25 per cent of the receipts from the lands after reservation. Much of the timber land being ac cessible to the railroad, it is contended much of the timber would be quickly sold by the Government. and one ' fourth of the receipts from timber sales would go to the state, under ex isting law. Classification Also Advised. On the other hand, some officials not favoring the forest reserve idea, but who beiieve the government, should take over the lands, advocate their classification and sale or entry accord ing to character. The lands chiefly valuable for timber they would place on the market in such tracts as will appeal to bona fide lumbermen; the ag ricultural lands they would open under the homestead law. There seems to be general opposi tion, in departmental circles, to permit ting the railroad company to sell its valuable timber lands at the nominal price of $2.50 per acre. Such a plan, it Is argued, would merely operate to en courage speculation and would enable the fortunate purchasers from the Government to sell out at handsome profits, because no individual would find it profitable to establish a mill and undertake to cut the timber from e single quarter-section. Likewise, there appears to be no -sympathy, in Government circles, with the proposal that Congress give pref erence rights to the settlers who have gone on the Oregon & California lands, or to those who made tenders and Bought to buy these lands from the railroad company. These interveners and cross-complainants were held by the Supreme Court to have no standing In the suit recently decided, and the departments are not disposed to give .them a standing tne courts rerusea to recognize. Scramble Expected to Continue Till Saturday, When Sale Ends Lectures by Mr. Hawley Scneduled. OREGON CI XX. Or.. June 29. (Spe cial.) The annual "run" among Chau tauqua patrons in the scramble for book tickets" began in earnest in Clackamas County today. Treasurer Caufield, of the Bank of Oregon City, reported almost a continual procession of the "book buyers" at the bank. The book plan is an appeal to the bargain-counter instinct, and each year it works out beautifully. Today, for instance, more than 200 prospective at tendants at Chautauqua purchased their season tickets in books of ten. and each one thereby saved 50 cents on the price of his season ticket. Probably 200 tickets will go' the same way each day this week, and Saturday evening the "books" are closed. Everything is In excellent shape for the opening of the assembly next Tues day morning, and if the weather keeps up as it has been today a record at tendance will swarm Gladstone Park from July 6 to July 18. Campers continue to send their res ervations in to Secretary Cross by the score in each mail, and a surprisingly large number of Portlanders will be on the grounds. The baseball games to be played each day at 3:30 P. M. promise to be classy. The Moose Lodge of Oregon City. Macksburg. MolaJla. Barton and Clack amas will vie for honors. 'Studies in Government, an Inside View." will be the general subject of a course of lectures to be given by Reoresentative Hawley during the sec ond week of the assembly.

A- general antipathy on the part of butchers against handling; meat from cowa condemned for tuberculo sis is threatening to interfere with the working- of the new Washington law which allows owners of dairy cattle partial state compensation for con demned cattle.
