Republican fund. - raising activities, he said, were Influenced by the reputed siae of the Democratlo fund. . The Republican plan for the raising of money through small contributions. Hays said, grew out of two primary causes : "The real desire to work a real re form. In the elimination of any possible improper obligation" and "out of the ex perience in connection with raising funds for war purposes, these popular drives have become familiar activities and it seemed possible at this time to under take that kind of action by political or ganisationa. ' . "We particularly hope that this action would increase the political Interest. -It Was then the purpose and it has been since the purpose of endeavor to limit the contribution to a maximum of a thousand dollars for any year for any individual, or a thousand dollars before the nominating convention and a thou sand after. We have all tried to adhere to that plan." ? HATS EXPLAINS BUDGET ' After explaining the machinery through which the plan was to be put into effect. Hays produced the $3,000,000, budget he said had been worked out. It showed the division of .the money for the following purposes : . - . ' ' -'; . Speakers bureau.

"At different periods different aubtas have been suggested by the treasurer's office as tentative goals, in, different states, and.tbe state committees them selves have fixed different quotas." he eaid. "These-are changing constantly. ahd alwaya of course, were made very muchv higher than the amount either necessary .or v anticipated.. The fact is, the quotas meant little. ' Furthermore, whatever 'may have been suggested, as quotas by over-sealoas solicitors v In their enthusiasm in different localities, the fact remains that a certain amount waa believed necessary and the- budget above referred to was indicated there for." .1 ..' ' BATS CLAIMS DEFICIT ' -: There is actually a - deficit in the Republican treasury of $23,374, Hays saidw After the Chicago convention, he said, the net balance In i the hands of the -national committee waa $16,621.27. Sites the 1920 convention . there has been raised by the national committee for its own use $418,013.54 up to August 26, 1920. During this period there has been raised by the states where we have a joint working arrangement, , for their own use. $399,241.7$," said Hays. "There was on liand on August 2$, 1920, in the national committee treasury $155,125.31. and we owe $460,000. This smount has been -. borrowed In order to anticipate expenditures. . Of this amount we have- loaned to the congressional campaign committee $188,SOO; senatorial campaign committee, $50,000 and state campaign committee $38,000.

Senator Chamberlain had entered his protest,! both- personally -; and - in writ ing, to Secretary Lane, prior to the execution of 11 the contract between : the interior department and the company. While In XClSmath Falls' on his recent trip through ''that section . of the state, he made a personal Inspection of the matter, visited the damalte, where 125 men. or more were at work. In company with Major J. H. Carnahan,. command er of the American Legion post at Klamath .

BELJ03TOS TO TEOPLE 1 in this telegram, which was concurred in "by Congressman Sinnott, . the senator pointed out ' that the' control of - the waters of the Klamath lake, the largest natural reservoir of fresh water an the world, should be ; retained by the gov ernment for t. e use of the people' and that the acquisition of this control by the power company would not only dam asre the rights ( t the people of Oregon but would'i'-- i the loss of millions of dollars' wor..i of valuable government land... - .

In ' the four months ending Joly 31 Cana dian exporters received $10,055,054 for sugar sent outsideof Canada; $3,450,344 of this money coming from the United States;; $1,023,373 from Newfoundland ; $ 3 1 6,9 1 1 front the United Kingdom, and 3125.143 from New Zealand, ' : ' Of the 'total amount thus exported, 46,215,399 pounds were refined sugar, valued at $7,836,804, or almost 17 cents a pound, and the remaining amount was made up of maple sugar, 5,832.240 pounds valued at $1,459,799, and confectionery valued, at $694,693. t . During these same -four months Can ada Imported sugar valued at 841,197, 560, or three times the. value of the en tire sugar Import in the Oscal year 1911. The major part of this Imported sugar was made of 384,444,084 pounds of raw sugar valued at $37,438,793. showing that while Canadian ; refiners received - an average of 17 cents a pound for refined sugar sold In the United States during these months ef high prices, they paid an average of 9.74 cents a pound for the raw sugar received. This was, no doubt, bought after last December, as the statistics for the fiscal year 1920 ending March 31, last, show that-' 1,081,575,107 pounds of. raw sugar were. Imported Into Canada at a total Value of $$$.348,171, : or an average of 4.33 cents a pound, and that during the same period the exports of Canadian refined sugar from Canada totaled 245, $21,907 pounds valued at $22,479,409. er an average selling price of 9.14 cents a pound. .. . Most ef the refined sugar now being sold at the higher prices wss made from raw sugars brought from the Cuban and other sugar producing countries last December or later. Therefore, the dif ference between 9.74 cents a pound and 17 cents a pound does not cover the spread between the buying price of the rawa and the amounts received by the reflnerf for sugar exported. Eight cents a pound would be h nearer the actual average amount paid by Canadian re finers for sugar over which so much speculation has occurred of late.- to the Klamath lake contract, permit us to say that if the terms of the contract are permitted to remain in force it will practically transfer the control of the waters of the lake, the greatest natural reservoir In the world, to a private cor poration both for . Irrigation and power purpose a. This is not only contrary to the policy of - the government, but to publio policy as well. It Is violative of the act of 1905 of Oregon, ceding certain of the rights of this state to the United States., It deprives Oregon of the bene ficial use of the waters of the lake and transfers it to a power company for power and. irrigation purposes, the pre tended. reservations In the contract to the"contrary - notwithstanding, Already the company Is negotiating for power contracts and for the Irrigation of lands In California. This was never Intended, either by the United States or the legis lature of Oregon at the time the cession was made. . - t CA9CELLATIOX IS AJSKED i- We therefore recommend and beg the prompt cancellation of the contract and notice to the company to stop work which the United States alone ought to do. Let the company then proceed to at tack your course and in . the meantime continue work at Its peril. The state ought not to be driven to Institute pro ceedings to prevent a violation on the part of the government of the terms of the act of cession of 1905. . "This means millions to the state as well as to the United States' and we know you will give the matter your usual prompt and careful consideration. ' Will you please advise us of the conclusion reached by you I . ,v ;: Following the portests -of the sena tor and - of Mr. Sinnott, ':- for warded a week of more ago. and coinci dental with the dispatch of the telegram quoted, the power '"company stopped work on the construction of its danv across the river. It is the hope of Chamberlain and Sinnott, particularly In view of the company's action, that Sec retary Payne will cancel the contract and thus save Klamath Lake as a . natural reservoir for the use of the public in the reclamation of the vast areas of highly fertile land In Klamath county, and in California as well, should investi gation show that this could be accom plished without disturbing the rights of Oregon.

Moody, fire ranger, who directed ; the fighting. Moody ar rived Monday. Forty . men were a week bringing 'this ' fire under control, and another, week putting it out. The rain completed the job. . ' While .the timber destroyed around Fish .lake was not of great value com mercially, because of its v inaccessibil ity, it was an enormous loss from a recreational standpoint, since Fish lake has been stocked ' with some of the finest trout in the -country and it has long been a favorite spot for (he fish ermen and campers. V The fire has de stroyed all the scenic attractions around Fish lake. t : RIDE IS DIFFICULT Because of the ' lake's inaccessibility, it took Portland fire-fighters three days to i reach the scene. The trip Included a wild night ride in an automobile from Government camp to Clackamas lake on a mountain read so narrow and so rough that the car. bumped al most . continuously against the tree roots on either side. From Clackamas lake the men went on foot for a day down the backbone of the -Cascades. LABOR HEADS PLEDGE THEIR FAITH IN COX - r:i y -'. " " : (Coatinatd fVest Pass Osa) . ixtsals and a broader statesmanship in his publio discussions of the problems of the . industrial world." The committee was named to Inquire into the qualifica tions of the two candidates for president from the standpoint of labor. , "Not only In the specific utterances relating directly to questions held. para mount by labor," continues the report, "is the comparison favorable to Governor Cog. His progressive and . constructive viewpoint holds throughout his declara tion of public questions. : "Moreover, and as an argument that admits of no qualifying or denial, there Is Governor Cox's record as governor of Ohio during Which he acted -upon 59 measures of Interest to labor without acting on a single one adversely to labor. HARDlHO DECLARED YAGTJK "This is a record of fidelity to human ity, of understanding Of the needs of the great masses of the people that has few equals In American political life.". The report- uses, : as basic material, reports of the votes, actions and utter ances of the candidates In public life. As a member of the Ohio state senate In 1902 and 1903, Harding Is credited with six favorable votes to labor with none against. In the sixty-fourth, sixty-fifth- and sixty-sixth congresses, as a United States senator, Harding's score is seven votes favorable to labor; 10 against and one "paired unfavorably," according to the record prepared by the committee. The votes by Cox in the sixty-Second congress are recorded as favorable v labor. LABOR TREATED FAIRLY . The greateet emphasis- Is placed on his-record as governor of Ohio, when, according to the report by the Ohio Federation of Labor, in connection with 69 labor measures, not an adverse action is shown. The actions by Cox are given In' detail. ' : y;: ; a . . Lengthy comparisons also are made between the acceptance speeches. The federation goes further and quotes utter ances by Harding as far back as 1915 to emphasise the attitude of the committee against the Republican candidate. v A reference made by Senator Harding If You Employ a Maid You Will Find the i - w ut 7ri - work. or worry,; and paying lor laundress.

The committee makes this comment: "Whether the senator had in mind the labor movement and its political effects is not clear." ; ; HARDIXO STAXD DOUBTED i u. ; Hardmg's approval of collective bar gaining, the committee ' poitns out., is coupled with his -"unalterable Insistence" that, its exercise must not destroy s "the equally sacred right of the Individual In his necessary pursuit of livelihood." , . The committee makes this comment : "No. definition in this exception to the senator's approval of collective bargain ing has been found coming 'from him, and his meaning Is necessarily left open to conjecture. ;.';; .- A quotation from a Harding Interview given before his nomination, apparently Is objectionable to the committee. In this Harding Is quoted ss saying: "The vital problem of the present day Is this: - "How is the established order going to resist the pressure of iconoclastic forces? When our congress waa intimi dated into enacting the Adamson law, the apprehension was justified that all existing governments might be influ enced by the political strength of organ ised minoritiea" REFERENCE RESETTED V- Organlsed labo took a leading part In forcing the Adamson law, and appa rently resents Harding's reference, r Another quotation Is from an address In the United States seenate in which Harding said: "I am an employer of organised labor, having never known a controversy. Organisation and collective bargaining under wise leadership have done more to advance the cause of labor than all other agencies combined.' But the advance ef unionism Is one thing, and the domination of organised labor quite another. I subscribe to the former and oppose the latter. I do not' believe in any class domination, and the long fight .to remove the domination of capi tal, now fairly won, is lost If labor domi nation is submitted in its stead.". SPEECH SATISFACTORY ' ' The quotations from the Cox accept ance speech apparently are satisfactory to the members of the political com mittee, to the extent that they receive little comment. Attention Is called to the-l Cox discussion on indusrial disputes, in which he characterised as "a dangerous industrial philosophy" any belief that employers could enforce their will upon workers. -. : Cox's record is summarized as "a record of fidelity to humanity, of un derstanding of the needs of the great masses of the people that has few equals In American political life." No state ment is given summarizing Harding's record. k COX STAYS OVER SCHEDULE IN N.Y.
