nents sought to cenaure and possi
bly overturn the cabinet by limit
ing the amount of expenditures per
mitted, during the coming year, t
A resolution Introduced by Lambert,
Liberal M. P., to restrict government
appropriations to 800,000,000 pounds
yearly went down" in a smashing defeat

Linked with the money question, the
British naval program came under the
guns of the opposition.
. In . moving his resolution Lambert'de
nounced the government "extravagance"
particularly in the matter of armaments,
lie declared that he and his party dis
trusted the admiralty and asked whether
it was proposed to build a gigantic fleet
of warships against America which
was unthinkable." .
On this score he was answered by
Horatio Bottomley. who declared it the
height of folly and exceedingly danger-;
out for the country to "stand Idly by
wlflle America and Japan were building
capital ships as fast as they could.
IDEA RIDICULED ,
. Austen Chamberlain, supporting the
government, ridiculed the Idea of "ra
tioning" the government on money mat
ters. He declared the cabinet had al
ready curtailed on military expenditures
to the utmost point "consistent with
our imperial obligations and, imperial
safety." He declared the government
was determined to maintain an' adequate
and up-to-standard navy, but said that
no program of capital ship construction
would be sanctioned until the commit
tee on imperial defense had reported on
the lessons definitely learned from the
great war.

Praise and Blame
Mixed in Report on
Crater Lake Park
Washington, Dec. 10. Stephen A.
Mather, director of the national park
service, in his annual report just is
sued, finds much to praise in Crater
lake national park, .but much to con
demn in - the management of the hotel
and camp accommodations there.
"So far - as. travel, climate, . road and
trail conditions and official protection
and maintenance of the park were con
cerned,' the. Crater lake season of 1920
was the most successful of its history,"
he says.-: "As a matter of fact," he con
tinues, ''nothing but good news can be
recorded of . every factor of operation,
except the ' condition of the hotel and
camp accommodations, which were thoroughly-bad."
Mather notes the continued increase
of travel to the park and the growing
Inclination of tourists to stop, over and
camp. To get the best results, he con
tends, however, that the Diamond lake
area should be added to the Crater lake
park, saying: "With a road from Crater
lake to Diamond lake the park would be
come at once one of the best recreation
areas of the Pacific coast and would be
patronized by motorists from Canada
to Mexico."

"Within the next five years Oregon will need to borrow more money than it ever
borrowed in any other five year period qf its existence as e state. By Oregon we mean
the commonwealth, the several counties, the cities, the school districts, the new Irrigation
districts, business corporations and individuals." Editorial, Oregon Journal, Oct' 19, 1920.
The telephone company is one of the business corporations of Oregon
which will be compelled to borrow large amounts of money in the next few
yearsnot only to extend its service to Wew subscribers, but to take care of
the constantly increasing use of the .service- by present subscribers.
A lender in business will demand of a borrower ample' Security and will
insist that its value be maintained without deterioration He must be shown that
this security has an assured earning power. He must be satisfied that his
investment is safe; that it can be disposed of at any time without loss and
that it will bring him a continuous return. . ' ' , ;
At the present time this company's operations in Oregon are conducted
at a deficit. Its expenses are greater .than its revenue. No return is being
received by its stockholders from their property in Oregon. Not even the
interest oh the bonds properly chargeable- to its Oregon properties is being
paid from Oregon receipts. ' 1 t
With new capital scarce and commanding high rates of return, a business
showing, operating results such as these will find it difficult, if not impossible,
to secure money for its necessities. t
We assume that the people of Oregon wish to treat the utilities doing
business in this state justly and fairly, and in this belief we have asked the
Public Service Commission to approve a schedule of rates increasing our
revenues. The amount asked for is relatively small to the individual rate
payer, but the aggregate will place us in a position where we can obtain the
outside capital necessary in our operations. '
Under present conditions an adequate telephone service efficient and
sufficient is dependent upon higher rates. ,
