LANE WANTSTO BE
ABLETO TELL PORK
Senator Thinks Criticism of
Whole Harbors Bill Is Un
ix warranted Reflection.
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.

"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.
He said he believed that the Governor
would agree with him after he had had
an opportunity to explain the matter
more fully.
The exercises were in charge of H.
R. 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. Maris, state supervisor of
school industrial clubs, and A. R Chase,
Wasco County agriculturist. Mrs. Beck
enstein, of Friend, and Mr. and Mrs.
F. C. Sexton, of The Dalles, provided
vocal selections and Instrumental mu
sic was furnished by the Waplnitla
concert band. After the speaking Tygh
