HAWLEY FIGHTS IN VAIN
'FOR OREGON PROJECTS
. Washington, June. 2.7 Con
gressman Hawley yesterday
made a spirited but unsuccessful
effort in the house to have the
rivers and harbors bill amended
by adding $975,000 for corttinu
ing the north jetty work at the
mouth of the Columbia. He con
tended that the discontinuance
of the work one season would
depreciate the value of the work
already done to the extent of
$100,000. By a close vote the
house rejected the amendment
and also rejected the Hawley
amendments to adopt the Coos
bay and Yaquina projects. Telegram.
