THE MORNING OREGONIAN,
K
v
Mayor Baker and Attorney
General Brown Speakers.
JAY H. UPTON PRESIDES
Keep Everybody Busy Working tot
Greater Community Develop
ment, Is Tenor of Talks.
(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.

lows: 9:30 A. M. Open hearing on resolutions

JEFFERSON MEMORIAL UP
400 STUDENTS WHO SERVED
COLORS TO BE HOXORED.
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.
