Be Offered for Lease. COWER SITES INCLUDED 0raat Stuns Kaadyfor Xnvaatmant and ij Montjr wm Com Wbs Haw "5 . Order Obtains. E. C Finn ey, member of the Fed eral Board of Appeals, personal repre tentative of Franklin K. ' Lane, secre tary of the Interior, at the QregonJ Vommonweaitn .conference, Eugene, Arrived In Portland yesterday. j Within the year he predicted fed eral law will , bring beginning of a flew era in western development. i Revenues from utilization of min eral ' resources in government lands 4-ill meet the cost of reclamation projects.- 'i Western progress will be given rjght of way. J The government's coal, oil , and jShoephate lands, now withdrawn. from tfntry, will be offered for lease under conditions that provide legitimate de- . velopment and ' on ' terms profitable alike to the lessee and the govern ment. .Similarly water power sites will 4 offered with a fixed tenure of tease that will warrant investment of capital. J. Mr. Finney says he knows of $10, 000,000 ready to be invested in a Pacific Northwest water power site is soon as" the new order obtains. -; M . HeainrM Axe Pending. 1 Ccngresn, pi. course, must pass the two; measures 'submitted by Secretary Lane and .the administration1, before the 'way can be opened to develop ment, but Mr. Finney said: "I am confident , that the next congress will make the passage of these two bills one of Its first du ties. : - . "Receipts should Immediately begin to' come from government lands upon Which wells were .drilled without tight of law, from which the drillers were barred by recent decisions, but which will probably be opened to them again under terms of the leas ing power provided' in the mineral lands leasing bill. 2 "And revenues from leases of water rower and . coal lands should soon hereafter, begin . to flow Into the public treasury. "The government has, some 1 80,000, v00 invested in 30 reclamation pro jects; $40,000,000 is needed to com plete the work. The Income from the Sale of public lands is falling off and Cannot be relied on to meet the cost Of completion of projects. J "Revenues sufficient to complete the projects can be made to come from the two leasing bills. This means that one . kind of fte velopment will be made to meet the expense of another and the. entire west will be tremendously benefited thereby. 'I Water Power Sill Urged. - "Conservation to Secretray Lane does not mean tying up resources from' use, nor does it mean the per- petual and unconditional "turning- of them over to special interests. To '" him it means the immediate and ra tionaldevelopment of our water powers, oil, gas, coal and phosphates under conditions with regard to the people's interest as well as the rights of the developer, i "The water power Iblll he . advocates substitutes a 60-yeafr certain tenure for the present revojjrfble permit, but ' keeps the right at "the end of that time to renew to theriginal permit lee, or to take over by the govern ment at a fair value if the existing conditions so require. The control of water and the regulation of rates In Interstate matters is left to the . state.

It gavev no rights, to an In dividual until he had actually -struck oil ; or gas' and.' after ' he made an In vestment, : sbma one drilling quicker might strike before he did and get the rights. The acreage permitted Is too small, allowing 20 acres to one man or 160 to an organization of eight. The new law provides 1 640 to 2560 acres, dependent upon distance from a known field. ,' . 'The same " thing applies to . coal lands. Under the old law one person is permitted to file on not more than 160 acres; a maximum of JJ560 acres is permitted under the proposed new law. "One half of the revenues from any lease are to go to Jthe state within which the lease Is made; and one half of the revenues are to fee spent by ! the government in reclamation. So that all the money goes for west ern development. Membership is Explained. "Oregon' senators. Chamberlain and Lane, are supporting the bills. The general support for them is strong. The opposition,; such as there is, gives no evidence of any particular consist ency or sincerity. Mr. Finney explained what mem bership on the board of appeals means. The board was created by congress to bring up arrearages of land, mineral reclamation and Indian appeals . that must be 'decided by the. secretary of the interior. Since appointment the board has reduced the arrearage of cases from 2000 to 400, and all con cerned are delighted with the prompt action. Mr. Finney's associates are TV. B. Newman and George B. Gardner. Mr. Finney is to appear on the commonwealth ; conference program at the University of Onegon tomorrow. fnpnee Ger BY REX LAT1PTXA1N THE ofier day 1 went to aej ."Quu Vadis" at the Orpheum and saw Nero and Petronius and Vinitius and a lot of other men and women who did nothing but eat and drink and plot murder and worse. and I paw the marble halls and the sleek men and beautiful Women lolling at' their feasts while roe pet als rained on them and. I watched them gorge themselves and saw the baths where! they renewed, their wast ed vigor after their banquets and saw then , joy riding and how the people stood i, aside as the chariots rolled through the streets to keep from being trampled by - the horses. And always in every picture that flashed as the movie machine purred overhead I saw a background of men and women who were slaves.- and I knew that all the splendor and beauty the gardens and fountains the : marble columns the ;- silken couches ton which- Nero and the others lolled were the work aif slaves. and that the food and the gold and silver dishes it was served in by slave and the wine the fina men and women drank and everything of value in their lives were : produced And the background deepened and back f the slaves that crept and kowtowed through the pictures I saw millions of other slaves bend ing to thv sweeps in the galleys straining ih the quarries tending tho vineyards at forge and anvil at winepress and loom up and down the world as far as Roman agles spread their wings. ' Always slaves slaves' toiling forever that' Nero and his crowd might swill wine and eat too much and do nothing. And I saw Rome burn and I -knew that slaves would build it up. again as they did In the nrst place. and I saw red after the red of the burning city had faded from the film. - -v ' ' -r - and I'm tired hearing of the "glory that was Grecce-and the grandeur that was Rome" becausa both dertved from the sweat and blood of people who starved that parasites might fatten. and I might go right on and get mad and talk like Bill Haywood or Giovannitti but LISTEN I think there's more glcry and grandeur about a sod shack that a free man who can look evry other man in the eye without cribs ing builds on his own ground than in all the palaces and Parthenons and Colosseums that were ever built as all were built by slaves.
