Senator Bankhead Tells Colleagues
legislation for Great Devel
opment Close at Hand.
OREGONTAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Feb. 2. Secretary of the Inter
ior Lane indicated a desire at a confer
ence attended this morning by Senators
Chamberlain .and McXary, Representa
tive Sinnott and A. D. Anderson, of
Madras, Or., representing the Des
chutes irrigation project, to have an
immediate examination made of the
large area in Deschutes and Jefferson
counties, Oregon, which it is proposed
to reclaim.
Director Davis, of the reclamation
service, who was called into confer
ence, said that arrangements had been
made for professor W. O. Crosby, noted
geologist and engineer of Cambridge.
Mass.. to examine the Benham Falls
and Crane Prairie reservoir sites as to
whether they are leak proof, with a
view to deciding their availability in
developing this project. Secretary Lane
displayed an eagerness to have the ex
amination started at once by inquiring
of Director Davis if some' other engi
neer could not be found to take up the
work without delay.
He said that the department wished
to take up the mot available projects
in the United States just as soon as the
$100,000,000 which this Congress is ex
pected to appropriate becomes ef
fective. Two new projects for Oregon
under this appropriation were urged
upon Secretary Lane.
Legislation, which will open at once
the development of water power in the
west, is almost at hand, it was an
nounced by Senator Bankhead of Ala
bama, chairman of the Senate conferees
on the water power bill in the Senate
this afternoon The announcment came
as a surprise at the close of a speech
by Senator Jones, of Washington, in
which he upbraided Congress for not
enacting legislation to unlock the
water power resources of the west, de
claring that the Federal Government,
the states and municipalities are
wrestling with the problem of the un
employed, while Congress has within
its control the establishment of vast
industrial enterprises, employing thou
sands, simply by making power devel
opment possible.
The announcement was unexpected,
because the impression bad been
abroad for some time that the con
ferees were hopelessly deadlocked and
that no agreement could be expected.
Senator Bankhead said that only two
or three minor differences remain and
that an agreement may be expected by
Monday or Tuesday, which will be re
ported immediately thereafter to both
bouses for approval.

STATE CAPITOL, Salem. Or., Feb. "
ttpecial.) To meet conditions ex
pected to arise from the rule of the
House which shuts off introduction of
bills after tomorrow night, except by
consent of a special committee. Senate
leaders are bustling around preparing
to put over a resolution which will shut
off introduction of bills in that body
after next Saturday, except by unani-
mous ronsenL Th rftRnlntlnn tr that i
effect will probably be introduced to
morrow by Senator Pierce.
Members of the Senate explain that
this move will be taken in self-defense.
as they fear that as soon as the House
rule becomes operative the members of
the House will go across the hall with
their bills and request their colleague
Senators to introduce them.
The resolution framed by Senator
Pierce calls attention to the fact that
the Senate during the first three weeks
of the session has not considered any
of the more important bills, and if they
are to be given the attention that is
their due, the Legislators cannot waste
their time considering legislation of
minor importance.
COUNTIES SEEKING REFUND
Bill to Be Introduced Tapping State
Highway Money Che si.
STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Or.. Feb. 2.
(Special.) Members of the House ef
Representatives are getting ready to
put onto the gridiron a bill which Rep
resentative Sheldon has hinted he will
introduce in that body tomorrow, which
will provide for the state repaying from
the highway fund the amounts which
have been expended by various coun
ties of the state in the improvement of
the Pacific Highway.
Jackson County voted a bond issue
for several hundred of thousands of dol
lars and constructed a long stretch of
pavement before the State Highway
bonding act went into effect.
Douglas County members have pro
tested to Sheldon against the intro
duction of the bill, even thought that
county has bonded itself for $250,000
and either has expended or expects to
expend in the main the money on the
Pacific Highway.

STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Or.. Feb. 2.

praisement be placed against the de

SOLDIERS AXD SAILORS BCY AT
RED CROSS S HOP.
Appeal Is Issued for Donations to
Aid In Replenishing Civilian
Wardrobes of Men.
So heavy have been the demands of
discharged soldiers and sailors at the
Red Cross shop. 70-72 Third street, to
purchase used clothing, that the stocks
are almost exhausted. Discharged sol
diers are given special prices at the
Red Cross shop when they replenish
their civilian wardrobes, and Mrs. G. T.
Trommald. director of the shop, asks
for large donations of used clothing
at once.
There is a big call for evening gar
ments, of which the Red Cross shop
has sold large quantities. All the
members of at least one local theatrical
company patronise the Red Cross shop
for garments of this description, which
are worked over into the latest model.
Anything in the line of garments can,
however, be fold within a few days
after its arrival.
Some very fine paintings are now on
sale at the shop, one of the Sierras by
a well-known American artist, which
cost $500, having been donated to the
shop. Taintings for all purposes, some
veritable little gems, may now be ob
tained at the superfluities shop.
All proceeds from the Red Cross shop
are used to maintain the relief work
of the Red Cross in Portland. The Red
Cross truck will call on receipt of tele
phonic request. Salvage will be re
ceived by the salvage bureau, which can
handle waste paper and other salvage
in any quantity.
