About two years before his death, which occurred February 3. 120, the mental and physi cal condition of Prince became such that -the court appointed Hammond guardian. Frince, H la said, had become the prey of unscrupulous persons who had un loaded upon him properties at several times their real worth, securities of doubtful value and had induced him to supply funds for various business enter prises that were much 'complicated and uncertain as to outcome.. Wallace McCamant, attorney for the Judiciary, said It required six months' time to get the Prince affairs in such shape that the making of an Inventory .was possible; but at that time the in ventory -shewed the Oregon portion of the Prince estate to be $412,000,' against which - war outstanding obligations of from $175,000 to $200,000.

TO SITE IN WEST SOUGHT Washington. Dec. 3 . ( WASH INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOUR-NAL.)--Some of the Western sena tors are -preparing to urge the re moval from "Washington of certain departments whoso work, they say, can be better performed in the West, i at the same time helping to relieve the congestion which still causes dif ficulties here. Senator Kenyen df Iowa is one of the leaders in the movement. He is aroused over the housing conditions"" in Wash ington, and holds that the most prac tical way to deal with it is to move some of the departments whose work can . as well be done elsewhere. BENT HOGS 8COBED "Captain Kidd was a gentleman com pared with ' some of the landlords in Washington," said Senator Kenyon. "They s are extorting high rents from people who are compelled to live here while serving the government.. It. is time something is done, and the thing j to do is to move away departments and bureaus that can readily be moved, with benefit to the interests they serve, such as the ' department of agriculture and the department of the interior. Senator . King of Utah introduced a bill in. the last congress for appointment of a commission to select a site in the West for the interior department and related activities. He was thinking less of the congested conditions in Washing ton, than of the benefits which he con tends would result if the department which'' deals, principally with western problems, were located in the West. MUCH TIME LOST . King's argument" is that too much time is lost between the field and the de partment in Washington on questions of ( reclamation, the ' publics lands, the na-1 tional parks, the forest service and simi lar activities. It would be far more efficient and economical, he asserts, fori the secretary of the interior to make occasional trips to Washington to die-J cuss affairs of his department with the president and other officials then to have the secretary 3000 miles away from the men who are doing the work, aside from the paper work, . and therefore I compelled to summon these men In great numbers- from time to time for the long trip to Washington. ...' There has been little discussion as to I where the "western capital" should be, but Salt Lake City, Denver and San Francisco have been suggested. There has been a branch reclamation office at Denver which In a fashion has served as a supervisory office for the west, an idea which is said to have worked well and saved considerable expense and red tape when field tracers In a the west 1 would otherwise -have' to go o Wash ington or lose valuable time in corre spondence and delayed decisions, SITES ABE AVAILABLE Senator Kenyon believes that any city selected in the west would be willing to furnish an adequate site and to repro duce the buildings vacated in Washing ton without cost to the government. The vacated .buildings would provide for overflow . In the future and avoid the necessity of new construction for I some time to come. While the far West is regarded by the senators back of this movement as the ideal location for the interior de partment and for related activities like the -forest service and the waterpower commission, they agree that the Middle West agricultural section has a better claim to the department of agriculture. whose, removal to "that section they would also Support for the same rea sons, bringing the agricultural heads closer to the problems of the producer I and in frequent contact with the people the department was created to serve. Uncle Sam Checks Up on 'War Minerals' In the United States Auto Thieves Sentenced " Leonard ' L. Eberhart and George E.
