(Continued From First Page.) with some of the things I have re cently heard, such as calling: these malcontents together and discussing; with them the way to run our gov ernment. I cannot see it that way at all. There are enough red-blooded Americans to keep this government running: right and we are going; to do it. "Wo have shipped one full ark of those who do not like our form of government and have been preaching its overthrow and. I say, let's ship 100 more arks full, if necessary. If there are more who like better the countries from which they came, we will send them back. I hope, so they may live there. Members of this irri gation congress can help wonderfully In keeping down radicalism by stand ing out fully against it in every form, wherever it rears Its head. The farm ers are the backbone of this and every other state and are not given to heeding radical talk, and we must have your earnest help in stamping out 'red' propaganda and in keeping the state 100 per cent American." Mayor Baker's words met with fre quent cheers. He said he was pleased to read what President Upton of the I congress said in The Oregonian yes ' terday to the effect that radicals and radicalism must go. In responding to the mayor's address or welcome; Mr. Upton gave him much credit for as sisting In putting tnrough favorable Irrigation legislation. Attorney-General Brown, who fol lowed closely after Mayor Baker's ad dress, emphasized the fact that recla mation projects are constructive methods of meeting conditions such as are all too abundant throughout the country today. He pointed out the value of Irrigation and drainage districts to the country and showed that when men are busily engaged in constructive work they lose the de sire to revolutionize everything and become happy in what they are doing to help in the general cause of bring ing about better conditions. Brown Backs Leston'R IMea. Mr. Brown took a decisive stand for greater progress In reclamation work and against the proposed leas ing of upper Klamath lake to the California-Oregon Power company without providing certain acres for service men, as asked by the Ameri can Legion. Following; Mr. Brown's address came one by D. C. Henny. consulting engineer of the United States recla mation service, on the work of that service in Oregon. The Salt Lake irri gation .conference, its spirit, purpose and plan was next discussed by J. T. Ilinkle of Hermlston and Professor TV. L. Powers of the Oregon Agricul tural college. Professor. H. D. Scud der of the same institution was to have taken part in this, but was de tained at home by Illness, as was also Harry W. Gard of Madras. Percy Cupper, state engineer, who Is on his way to Washington, D. C on reclamation matters, was called upon and spoke briefly on the value and importance of irrigation and drainage. "This state Is making fine progress In reclamation work," said Mr. Cup per, "but it should be greater. "We have what I consider the finest ma chinery created by the legislature that any state has, but It is not being run to maximum capacity. It needs speeding up. We now . have about 1,000.000 acres under irrigation. There are 50 districts and of these 16 have been bonded." Portland Singled Out. Mr. Cupper called attention to Port land's situation with regard to recla mation, saying It has about it many acres from which could be made ex cellent manufacturing sites, through the process of drainage. "It has been said too long that Portland is not exactly interested in reclamation," said Mr. Cupper, "but I say that it is directly interested, and I hope its business men will see the great advantages to be gained by proper use of our splendid legis lation." At the morning session, the principal business was the reports of President Upton and Secretary Wallace, and registering of delegates. H. B. Van Xuzer, president of the Chamber of Commerce, welcomed the delegates on behalf of that organization, and O. C. Leiter detailed the work of the con gress to date. President Upton appointed two com mittees as follows: On resolutions. It. E. Bradbury of Klamath Falls; P. J. Gallagher of Ontario; Fred N. Wal lace of Tuma'.o; C. C. Clark of Ar lington; George Quayle of Portland; George H. Russell of Prineville and Joe McAllister of Salem; on creden tials. Mayor James Kyle of Stanfleld; C. T. Darley of Klamath Falls; H. H. De Arraond of Bend, and Walter Huikle of Pendleton. It is anticipated that the congress will, late this afternoon, give unani mous and enthusiastic indorsement to the John Day district project, the largest now before the state for open ing and which involves 300,000 acres. Action will also be taken, if time is sufficient, with regard to the upper Klamath lake controversy. The programme for today is as fol lows: 9:30 A. M.

Art Advisory Committee Will De cide Next Week Upon Nature of Monument. In honor of the 400 or more stu dents from Jefferson high school who saw service in the army, navy or ma rines, or who lost their lives in France, the school is to erect a bronze me morial. It (s planned to have the tablet or monument something dis tinctive In its class. The art advisory committee of the schools, to whom such matters are re ferred, paid a visit to Jefferson yes terday and inspected locations for the memorial. It was suggested by E. A. Doyle, local architect, that a flag pole having an octagonal base of bronze be erected. On the faces of the standard could be engraved names of the boys. Should a memorial be placed within the building, it prob ably will be in the form of a tablet. A committee is to decide dfinitely upon it next week. Money for the monument Is to come from the proceeds of class plays and will be donated by the January and June graduating classes. A total of $1000 probably will be expended. I Jury Convicts Conviot.
