Newspaper Page TextTHE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY. JANUARY 14. 1921 COMMISSI URGED F OR WATER SURVEY Central Oregon Irrigation In terests Are Affected. PROJECT PLANS CONFLICT fiend Commercial Club, in Appeal ; to l.' ;:-!a:un', Seeks Solution of Prevailing Problems. The. establishment by the present legislature of a commission for the purpose of making a study of the waters of central Oregon, and report- I tntc a programme for the future de velopment of-Jhat section, is asked by ihe Bend Commercial club. With j this In view. Illustrated pampniets outlining the present situation in that district have been placed in the hands of the state officials and legis lators. R. W. Sawyer, editor of the Bend Bulletin, and chairman of the irriga tion committee of the Bend Commer eial club, who waa in Portland yes' terilav. announced that if the gov ernor did not see fit to recommend the establishment of the proposed commission a bill would be Intro duceu by one of the eastern Oregon representatives with that in view. The establishment of the commta Hon is proposed by the Bend Com mercial club as the result of a fight which is now on among various dts tricts needing irrigation, to get water from a proposed dam on the De schutes river to be establisned at Eenham falls, ten miles above Bend .ccordlng to Mr. Sawyer. For Projects Are t'oseerse. "In 1913, as a result of action of the legislature, a survey was made looking to the establishment of the dan, at Benham falls and storing the winter's water supply to irrigate four districts in that vicinity," he said. "Districts which it was proposed to Irrigate in that way Included the north' unit in tho vicinity of Madras the 'west side' unit, adjoining the Tumalo project and on the west side of the Ivehutes river; the east sine tinit a few miles below Bend and on the east side of the river; and the south unit' just south of Fowell butte. "Si-ire that time government meas vremcnts of the water in the De schutes river have shown that the flow is not sufficient to irrigate an these projects. Other interests have also become a factor in the problem. including the two sawmills at Bend, whose officers declare they need a reasonable flow in the Deschutes river to prevent their millpond from becoming frozen over in mid-winter, thereby holding up their operations. The erection of the dam at Benham falls contemplated practically shut ting off this flow. Industrial Power Kisjares. "Another factor is the present and future need for watcrpower In the Bcr.tl district for the purpose or ac veloping electricity. The Betlham fulls is declared to be the logical place for the securing of this water power and tho complete damming of th-1 river would cut ort tnis source. "A pulp and paper mill for utiliz Inr the jack pine in the district IS nn ot the future industries which it is declared, would require the de velopment of this power. "Since the making of a report last nrirsr bv Professor Crosby of Boston Institute of Technology, to the effect that the proposed establishment or a reservoir at Benham rails was en ilrelv feasible, settlers in the vicin ity of Madras, on what is known as the north unit, included in the orig in!.; survev. have organized and formed air irrigation district and voted j.VOOO.noO In bonds for tne de velopment looking to the establish ment of the proposed reservoir at Benham falls. Settlers on the other projects declare that, ir tnis is pui through, other units will not have sufficient water for their develop ment. "It la declared that there is avail able a supply of water in the Crooked river which could be used on the nrih unit and is not available for ase on any other land. The use of this, it is declared, would leave water In the Deschutes river available for all the other development work. "The proposed commission, accord ing tc the plans of the Bend Com mercial club, would Investigate this situation and outline a scheme which would look to the best development of all Interests involved. It Is pro posed that one member of the com mission be appointed by the gov ernor, another by the reclamation service and that the third be ap pointed by these two" $67,266 ESTATE TIED UP,' Schanen Property Claimed by Hans Pederson's Creditors.
