THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND, THURSDAY JANUARY 13, 1916. BATTLE IS PROMISED IF NEW GOVERNMENT SCHOOL IS PROVIDED Oregon, Washington, Califor nia and Minnesota Each Want Academy, TWO HAVE BILLS ALREADY KmoIbUob CalUa XnrrtiOtioa of Sa.d aad AarlaabUlty of Xnrtlta tiona Still Km a Cianc Washington. Jan. 13. (WASHING TON BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL.) It Is evident that If a new naval or military academy'ls to com from the preparedness agitation, there will be a battle royal for the location. While enlargement of the West Point or Annapolis Institutions will be urged by members from the east, western mem bers are already arguing that better results will come by training part of the warriors west of the AHeghenles. While Senator Phelan has a bill calling for $10,000,000 for a naval and aviation academy at or near San Fran cisco, Representative JJiller of Min nesota, has another for an equal amount for a military school on the Fort Snelllng military reservation In his state. The Washington delegation is pre pared to back Seattle for the naval academy and the Oregon members tand behind Portland. Doubtless -Other states will present claims when ever It shall appear that there Is a real Chance for action. It Is extremely nllkely that the present congress will authorize the building of a new academy, either na val or military. Secretary Daniels of the navy has made it plain that he does not at present favor any expendi tures for a new school, although the contrary Impression was at one time extant, and Secretary Garrison Is on record as favoring a small addition at West Point to care for emergency needs. Representative Kent's resolution calling for an Investigation by the heads of the war and navy departments as to the necessity and advisability of establishing new schools yet holds a chance of success, and Is much more promising than the bills fixing sites and appropriating funds. The Kent resolution, if enlarged to include the entire Pacific coast in the scope of in vestigation, will receive more consid eration than any other. rural post roads a compared to tha total mileage. The bill direct administration or the work with the object of develop ing a general system of roads leading from towns and railroad stations Into adjacent farming communities In such way as to facilitate the transportation of rural malls and marketing the pro ducts of the farm. RUSSIAN FORGER To Call Architect Soon. Washington, Jan. 13. While the architect who prepared plans and spec ifications: ror the postofftce building in Portland, has not yet been called to Washington from his office at San Francisco, it la considered almost cer tain that he will soon be asked to come here to talk over suggested changes In the plana. " These changes have relation to keen ing the building within the cost limit fixed by the appropriation, and nlo m questions' of allowances made for structural strain. It is understood that thls does not: Involve any reflection upon the . competency of the architect. i requirements of the supervising architect for public buildings are often misunderstood by outside draftsmen. Some time will yet be required to completely check over the plans, and to decide Just what cnanges should be made so they will conform to the gov ernment standard. What must be done. If anything. In the way of changing the materials to be used Is also an un decided question. .
