OREGON ITEMS DEFENDED Cnggestion Is Made That Congress Obtain Information on All Pro jects So It May Eliminate TJn- necessary Appropriations. ' OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. June 6. Senator Lane, of Ore gon, is not in favor or pork-barrel ap propriations, and he disapproves of the expenditure of puolio money in the improvement of waterways that have no commerce, present or prospective. But he is not m favor of killing the river and harbor bill because it has ome elements of fraud in it. Rather, he would have Congress make some proper provision for guard ing against the injection of "pork" into future bills, and to that end would have Congress obtain accurate and reliable information which will enable it impartially to sift out the bad projects, and confine its appro priations to projects based wholly on merit. Some Elimination I Favored. In a speech in the Senate a few days ago Senator Lane gave his views, as follows: "There are no doubt in the bill many Items which deserve condemnation and I have no fault to find with such treatment of them. I would be willing to go as far as anyone to help clear the bill of such projects. Without full information concerning the facts, how ever, I do not feel that we are justi fied in condemning the entire bill. There are many good projects which are involved, and I think, as a matter of justice to the Senate at this time before we vote on the bill, some plan should be devised whereby Congress should have full information concern ing all items in future bills. "It is unfair to condemn the whole bill for the reason that some projects in it are unwise. It is not fair to Con gress, to the Senate, or to the people. r. f hi 'X ' i J A ss 1 sk KIRSCHBAUM CLOTHE! $15, $20, $25 and up CopyrtgM B.

"I do not concur in the sweeping: de nunciations which have been made against the bill as a whole, and while I do not question the motives of those who indulge In them I do know the people in the section from which I come in many cases are putting: up dollar for dollar with the Government in order to get the improvements and in order that they may get an outlet to market for their products. They should not be swept aside because there are other items in the bill which are un fair and unjust. Arid States Oppose Measure. "In the future consideration of this bill a committee ought to be appointed to prepare some plan by which Con gress could get rid of the deadwood which attaches to this measure. I want more particularly, to say that perhaps not half of this bill is bad. it may be not a third of it, but we are all under condemnation all over the country from the press to an extent that a man's honor is questioned if he votes for an; i.em in it or for the measure as a whole. It is not Just to the Senate itself to allow such a condition to exist. "1 rotlce that some of the members from states that have no seaports or wates, not enough to drink in some portions of their state, are the most indignant and virtuous in their protest against the passage of the bill. Others who represent states which are willing; to put up dollar for dollar with the Government for projects naturally do not feel hostility to the measure as a whole. Oregon Matches Government 'That the entire measure should meet year after year with the continued de nunciation because some Items are wrong is not entirely fair. Without any care whatever, so far as I am personally concerned, I would vote to kill the bill, if by killing it we could remedy conditions in the future. It would be of benefit to us in my state, for thereby we could secure our appropriations without question or reflection upon our honor. The leople of our part of the country have been willing; to pay their proportionate shpre of the cost of im provements, and for years they have been doing so. They have been bond ing their little homes, their farms, their property, everything they have in the world to help carry on such im provements, and do not deserve condemnation. As I said before, I think there has been a bit of unfairness, too much sweeping denunciation of this measure for the reason that I believe there are many projects in the bill that are worthy of the aid of tne Government." FARMERS AT PICNIC Governor Withycombe Speaker at Dufur Celebration. RURAL CREDITS DISCUSSED Professor Hector McPherson Takes Issue With Executive on Plan to Raise Money for Agricultur ist; Sports Are Held. DUPDR, Or.. June 10. (Special.) Governor Withycombe was the prin cipal speaker at the sixth annual Farmers' Union picnic held at Friend today. The speaker opposed the pro posed Initiative bill to raise finances for rural credits through a bond is sue and favored amending the consti tution, so that the mortgaged indebted ness of the state could be used as a basis for raising funds to gain the same ends as sought by the other plan. Professor Hector McPherson, of Ore gon Agricultural College, took issue with the Governor on this point and advocated the bonding idea, which is indorsed by the Farmers' Union, the grange and the Federation of Labor.

Richards and William Bolton, presi dent and secretary of the County Farmers' Union. Addresses were de livered by J. W. Brown, of Arlington, state president of the Farmers Union; Paul V.
