Free camping grounds, capable of Caring for 5000 persons, were offered to the Al Kader shrine, committee jesterday by Noble Joseph Keig, man ager of Columbia beaon.

Though the Tort land Garage and Kepair Men's association, under the direction of President Iester and A. X.

It has been impossible to find out definitely how many cars may come to the metropolis, but Mr. Stanton has provided for emergencies and will be able to care for or place on various tracts throughout the city probably. 4000 or more cars than those already arranged for in garages. Committee Seeks Information. 'We cannot impress too strongly on automobile owners the desirability of letting us know if they intend to drive in by auto." said Mark Wood ruff, secretary of the committe, yes terday. "Questionnaires have been sent out, but many replies have not been received, and if the magnitude of the housing proposition was real ized, and particularly so frorrj, an automobile standpoint, those who in tend to come by auto to Portland would give us this mifoh-desired in formation. 1 urge all to write us at SO'Z Gasco building from every city, town and hamlet, if they intend to come by auto, for we must know for how many cars to provide.

GDVERNDfl AIDS CAMPAIGN ATTEXTIOX CALLED TO DRIVE OF EX-SERVICE MEX. Proclamation ' Urges Support for Effort Being Made to Increase Membership of Legion. Interest in the success of the Ameri can Legion's membership 'ampaign in Oregon is shown by Governor Ol- cott, who has issued a proclamation calling the attention of citizens to the , state and nation-wide drive of the ex service men which will conclude this week. Though originally planned for last week only, the interference of election activities led to an extension in Oregon for another seven days. Portland post does not begin its campaign until tomorrow, though other local posts throughout the state started last Monday. Governor Olcott's proclamation is as follows: State of Oregon, executive department, Salem, Or. To the People of Oregon My attention has been directed to the fact that during the weeks from May 17 to May Ji, inclu sive, the America Iegion will carry on a drive for new members. This is to be a nation-wide drive, in which It is expected that over a million new members will be enrolled, bringing the strength of the or ganization up to 2,."00,OO0. This is an ob ject which I trust may be carried out to a highly successful conclusion in Oregon, as well as in the nation at large. It is a matter of pride on the part of every good American citizen, whether or not he was in the ervice during the late war, to see the millions of young Ameri cans returning to civic pursuits and join ing in an organization which has for its sole object and purpose the upbuilding of the welfare of the entire nation. It has oecome apparent durine the !f(e nf th American Legion that it is an organiza tion built not only on soundest lines of patriotic endeavor, but that it is an organ ization made up of men who are earnestly and determinated carrying out the prin ciples of the constitution and the laws of tne united states and of the constitution of its own order. The American Legion has functioned long enough to show, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that it is to be a wonderful power for good throughout the land. For that reason all American oiiizens will be glad to see it grow in membe.-ship and to nounsn. U is with pleasure that I i.iay ind the endorsement of this office to the n!n at 'American Legion week" when, during the waits i nave meniionea, the niightj' mem bership movement in to be put forward. 1 earnestly urge a.M Oregoniavis wh have the welfare of their country and 'heir mate at nean to give iuch assistance a .nl co operation to the men of the American Le gion as will aid them in making this move ment tne magnificent success which it de serves to Dc. ery sincerely yours.

Iiihui.... mm 4V and the Royal Chinook THE SALMON FISHERIES of the Pacific Coast rank with the oyster and herring fisheries of the Atlantic, as the most valuable fisheries in the world. Oregon has a large and increasing share in this wealth, for the Columbia River and the coastal streams produce millions of dollars worth of this finest of food every year. MORE THAN $100,000,000 worth of salmon have been caught in the Columbia River alone since the inception of the canning industry. In 1866 the first . rude cannery on the Columbia River was put into operation. The industry,, now supports twenty-one canneries; their product is shipped all over the world. THE 1919 COLUMBIA RIVER SALMON PACK brought to the State $7,490,920, an increase of more than three million dollars over the pack of five years ago. The 1919 catch in Oregon coastal streams returned $979,692. Adding to these figures, the $2,500,000 valuation of clams, oysters, crabs and fish "other than salmon caught on the Oregon coast last year, the total financial return for Oregon fisheries amounted to $10,970,612.00. THE FISHING INDUSTRY gives employment to approximately 25,000 people in this State; 11,000 are actively engaged in catching and handling the fish, while the balance are employed in canning and packing the product. CREDIT FOR THE INCREASING SIZE of the Oregon Salmon Pack- goes to the State Fish Com mission, who, in 1910, instituted a system of fish propagation which has proved a remarkable suc cess. The State of Oregon operates eighteen hatch eries, one of them, the plant at Bonneville, being the largest in the world. That these hatcheries are the salvation of the fishing industry is shown by the fact that while the catch is steadily increasing in this State, it is decreasing at an alarming rate on other sections of the coast. SINCE 1914, when the first results of the present hatchery system became apparent, the salmon in dustry has steadily progressed in a way mat promises mucn ior tne tuture, assuring a growth that will be instrumental in mak ing a Greater Oregon.
