HELD MENACETO
Btltm, 8pt. II. -The Roosevelt
Bird refuse iBMiura, up tor a vote
o tb people at the November elec
tlon. would arbitrarily take the
lands locludd in the bed of Mal
heur lake from the school children
of Orercn. giving it to the federal
government "without a Just and due
.return to the school fund," accord
ing to a statement Issued Friday
afternoon by the state land board.
This statetment, the first comment to
be voiced by the atate land board on the
effort to cede Malheur' lake to the fed
eral government for a bird refpge, was
mad in connection with the rejection
of a propoaal submitted to the board
Thuraday by C. B. McConnell of Burns.
Involving- the reclamation of 10,000 acres
of land in the old lake bed.
CONTRACT HOT LET
This land, aocording to an opinion
rendered by Attorney Cenerat Brown,
la state land and as such could properly
be leased to McConnell for reclamation
purpoaei if the board so decided.
In withholding Ita approval " of Me
Connall'a proposition Friday afternoon,
the board In a formal statement ex
plains that inasmuch as "tha question
of creating thla reserve (the Malheur
Bird refuge) will be passed upon by
tha people at the general election, No
vember 1, 120, the board deems it in
expedient at this time to consider such
contract."
"However," the atatement adds, "as
members of tha state land board the

dians and trustees of the school fund
and of all lands pertaining- thereto.
SO RETCBJT MADE
"The Roosevelt bird refurs bill pro
poses to cede away to the federal gov
ernment without any . remuneration
whatsoever, many thousands of acres
belonging to tha school children of the
state. These landa represent probably
several hundred thousand dollars which
would eventually find ita way into tha
irreducible school fund, which it is our
duty to guard and augment to the best
of our ability.
"If the bill provided that this land
should be ceded to the federal govern
ment in exchange (or federal lands of
equal value no loss would result to the
school funds.
"Thla bill arbitrarily takes this land
from the school children and glvea it)

CITY HALL SITE
Oregon City, Sept. 18. Asking
that a measure designating Mc
IxughUn park as location for the
new city hall be placed on the bal
lot at the coming city election, a
petition was placed in circulation
this week and filed Friday with the
recorder. The Detltlon was signed
y 200 voters.
Due to strenuous opposition of many
citizens the council had abandoned the
proposition to place the hall in the park,
and, at the last meeting of the council
had put machinery Hi action for selec
tion of a downtown site for the bully
ing, which will house the fire depart
ment, city jail and city offices. One' of
the principal points in the opposition's
argument is the fact that the will of
Dr. John Mclaughlin bequeathed the
land for the park to' the city under pro-
vision, that it be always used for that
purpose only.

PARK SOUGH
FOR
NEWLY RICH IN
ITALY SPENDING
WITH LAVISH HAND
By Marie Imandt
Rome, Sept. It. (I. N. S.) One of
the leading economists of Italy
makes a striking contrast of the way
wealth waa us '. by capitalists of the
last generation and the purposes to
which the new rich today are put
ting their money.
-Sefore the war Europe was organised '
socially and economically in a wty that
made the greatest accumulation of wealth
possible. The new rich of the nineteenth
century did not spend their money ; they
invested It. This means that they did
not use their money for their own direct
advantage, for immediate consumption ;
they transformed It into the means of fu
ture benefits, capacity for production
and advantages to be reaped by others.
The new rich of today are using their
money for Immediate personal consump
tion ; they are spending without the
slightest heed to the future, and thla in
times of the direst need. I waa in Turin,
sitting at a cafe in the famous Piasao
San Carlo, when the newsboys, many of
them blind men led by dogs, ran along
under the columns crying out the news
of Gioletti't first speech, and the hum of
comment as crowds ran to snatch papers
and read the words of the new prime
minister was amazing. It was a brilliant
scene, for beautifully dressed women
were taking their afternoon promenade.
Uniforms were in every direction and
now and then a Roman guard flashed
by and the aun flamed on his glided hel
met Ice tinkled and ices were consumed
as quickly as waiters could fetch them.
I It was impossible to realise in that gay
picture the condition of Italy, for in Tu
rin people enjoy themselves in spite of
prices. You can pick up an elegant motor
car on the street Instead of a taxi and
spend about 7 minutes in It for 7 lire
50, yet these cars were in constant de
mand. The Italian motor car la elegant In
shape, swift in action and the machin
ery is all inclosed. They are very ex
pensive, but the price doea not deter the
new rich from buying a motor car, and
there were many of the most beautiful
build on the streets of Turin.
Chaos at Modane the day before was a
striking illustration of conditions. Two
or three customs officers controlled the
inspection of baggage. People mostly
travel with hand luggage so hundreds
struggled along laden with valisea and
bags, for no porters appeared at' least
I saw none. It took two good hours to
fight through the douane and then trav
elers had to snatch what they could get
to eat before tfie night journey at the
railway buffet, for no One knew when
the train meant to stare
Crowds of emigrants with child:. .1 and
innumerable bundles were starting off
to seek a new life, where they hoped to
earn enough to cope with prices. Wages
of workers have been raised, but in many
places they cannot overtake the cost of
living.
Peasants are making money, aa the
value of all country produce ia enormous,
but the majority are not spending they
are used to saving. In Naples many of
the working people are living on bread
soaked In water. Oil is far beyond their
reach. The bread Itself 1s dark In color
and heavy in consistency, beU. made
chiefly of rye and maise. Tet I heard
an American lady declare she loved It,
and she waa taxing her digestion with
heavy wedges of It,
Constitution Taken
As Subject by Many
Speakers for G.O. P.
Constitution day was observed in
various sections of the city Friday
night by public meetings arranged
under the auspices of the Republican
county central committee. The main or
central meeting was held at Library
hall, where Guy C. H. Corliss was the
speaker. Corliss, like several of the
other speakers, used the meeting as an
opportunity to attack the League of
Nations. Corliss contended that the
league covenant virtually ' amounted to
a new amendment of the constitution.
The subject Is so Involved that ordi
nary people cannot understand It. Cor
liss contended, though he himself pro
ceeded to pick It to pieces with appar
ent ease.
Other speakers were : Judge John P.
Kavanaugh, at Albina branch library ;
Judge Robert Tucker, at St Johns
