Leo J. Kractenberg, of Smitiisonian Institution, Says Collection of Indian Relics From YV11 lamettee Valley Good. Leo J. Frachtenberg. of the Smith sonian Institution. Washington. D. C, has completed arrangements for the preparation of a catalogue of the rel ics from early Indian tribes of the Willamette Valley, which are now In Portland's Museum at the City Hall. This collection of Willamette Valley Indian relics Is practically the only one in existence. The catalogue will be published with photographs In an offi cial book. Work will be started next month. Mr. Frachtenberg also plans a cam paign for the establishment of a well organized and well-arranged museum. He says he believes that the city has the foundation for a wonderful museum with the collection at the City Hall, and believes that with the stuff rear ranged In proper order and properly displayed and increased by collections now in private possession, the Portland Museum can be made one Of the best in the United States. Work to Require Month. A catalogue of the specimens in the Museum at present will require about a month to complete and when pub lished, with other Willamette Valley In dian history, will make a book of about 300 pages. The plan Is to have this elaborately illustrated with photo graphs. While this work Is on Mr. Frachtenberg will urge the establish ment of the Museum on a new basis. "I believe," said Mr. Frachtenberg yesterday, "that Portland has the foun dation of a fine Museum. Aa It stands now It is scattered about the City Hall. The Smithsonian Institution Is conduct- ins- extensive investigations of the In dians of this part of the country and plans to make a complete book of the subject. This will go Into all the li braries, schools, colleges and universi ties of the country. Work Requires Time. "I believe there is a great deal more which could be had for a properly or ganized Museum. I believe there are wagonloads of relics stored away in ai tlos and barns In the state, and the owners, I believe, would be glad to turn them over to the Museum. It Is worth trying." Mr. Frachtenberg has been working for several years among the Indians of this state and Washington gatherlnl nformation for the book he Is to issue. He expects to have his work along this line completed within a short time. HEALTH BUREAU IS ACTIVE Hundreds of Inspections Made In Month of October.
