' While there is room for great im provement 01 Bcriv; Viaici Juav Lodge, most of the complaints di rected against A... L. Parkhurst, manager of the hotel, may be at tributed to the fact that he has not been properly financed, according to 'r a report made Saturday to Governor Olcott iy members of the special Crater Lake investigation committee appointed by him. "Parkhurst has almost impoverished himself to keep Crater Lake lodge going from year to year, 'making such improve ments as his financial capacity would permit," Bays the jeport. "He has invested - a large sum 01 money aiiu snumu no w retired as lessee we believe he should be adequately reimbursed for his expendl- ture of time and money." '' Mnnr.RX methods WANTED Members of the Crater Lake investiga . tlon committee making the report were Sidney B. Vincent, .chairman John B. Yeon and It. W. Childs, Portland; Pat Foley, The Dalles; C. S. Hudson, Bend; ; J; W. Siemens, Klamath Falls ; Bert B. : Greer, Ashland ; Vernon H. Vawter, Med--, ford, and Frank C. Bramwell, Grants I'asn. ' "Parkhurst is not a hotel man oine ..' modern type and we believe in some par . ticulars the management has been lax," - tne report cuhlmiugb, utat. uimio if satisfactory arrangements could be made for the buying out or other dis posal of Parkhurst that Crater Lake ' lodge, properly financed, might go ahead more ; rapidly under different' manage- .- menL "We say this in all kindness, realizing the tremendous burden that one man has had to carry without material help from any source. Parkhurts Is entitled to great - credit for what he has accom- i plished. "In all kindness and respect to Stephen ; S.. Mather, director of national parks, your committee begs leave to eipresa the opinion that he expected tooiinuch of . . . J ' . I- J 4 n . .Ion l alMlUtBl Uiiui who vv. that Mather has been a little, too harsh Rnd abrupt in his handling ofthe situa tion. '' ' , . MATHER CRITICIZED "We realize the wonderful work that Mather has accomplished for the na tional parks of our country, also that carrying the burden of so many na tional resorts, hampered as ne proDamy Is by the proverbial red tape of govr ernment operations, and that the embar rassment caused him by the inadequate facilities, especially while the congres- . fdonal party was at Crater Lake, magni fied the shortcomings of Parkhurst's " management and precipitated the condi tion which led to the appointment ot your committee. . "We believe it to be the duty of the people of Oregon either - to get behind Parkhurst financially and otherwise, or in lieu of that, have some one to organ lie a corporation which will buy out the tinn nn U f:ir basis Of return to the stockholders and to fairly compensate Parkhurst for the 10 years of nerve racking toll which he has under gone. . " " . "We also are of the opinion that the government, through Mather's depart ment should carry some of the burden of improving the Crater Lake situation &sid from the -road work which the for cstry department is doing. EARNEST 'EFFORT SEES "We believe that Parkhurst has made a faithful and earnest effort to make Crater Lake lodge a resort of merit, arid note that he has in a measure met with success, as indicated by the in creasing attendance at the resort since 1 1910. ' "We find that Parkhurst has received " little or' no cooperation from any source ' whatsoever, except banking accomraoda ; tions. The national park service through the superintendent of the park has ex i . emm umall fnurlpKipfl. but ItliUCW HUHKlvuu ' ' so far ai we were able to .ascertain ' the financial burden has "been borne by "It is-the understanding of our cpm- mittee that at other national parks the government has expended considerable sums of money in various ways, not only to improve the park conditions," but , to provido for the accommodation of guests at these resorts." DETAILED CRITICISM GIVES' Under separate headings the commit- tee makes a thorough discussion of the ; various, criticisms made against the management of the hotel. The committee Ifound that: ' , There was little upon which to base ' the charge of food shortages at Anna Spring camp', as no individual com plaints -could b found. That the Crater Lake lodge manage- ment failed to provide first class ac ; commodations to the traveling public, mainly due to lack of capital. This . 'criticism is not lad judged fair in com- parison with' resorts more conveniently I located to transportation. . .That Parkhurst failed to maintain re-r mainly because of lack of finance That Parkhurst has: failed to complete the building of the lodge eince 1915, ALL THE LATEST MODELS ' TO CHOOSE FROM THE IDEAL CHRISTMAS GIFT SPECIAL XMAS TERMS Parents Only $5 a Month OREGON EILERS MUSIC HOUSE Eilers Music Building ENTRANCE 887 WASHINGTON STREET " Take Elevator to Second Floor u i I, ,j CRATER 00G A GLIMPSE OF jp- I V '"' wVi-...:-'Y An unconventional View of Crater lake, which 1m at an elevation of 7200 feet.

MAST FAULTS FOTJSD That toilet facilities are not at all adequate and is one subject under which the management lays itself open for gross criticism. Lack of finance again is the attributing factor. TBat porter and bell boy service was cut to a minimum because Parkhurst wished to prevent exploitation of. his guests as much as possible. That only one' failure to provide clean bed linen was recorded, that being due to the nearest laundry being 85 miles away and delivery failing. That adequate pumping facilities to provide water have not been Installed rrainly because machinery already in place was misrepresented when pur chased. FI5A5CE BIG MATTER That insufficient boat equipment was due to the railroads failing to deliver a carload of boats which had been ordered in time for the summer season. That at times management has been lax because Parkhurst was compelled to be absent at times and the burden was too much for the paid manasrer to handle. So through all of the criticisms the committee shows that lack of finance has been almost wholly responsible for inconveniences which have been com plained about. Approaches to Tolo Overhead Crossing Repaired by Crew Gold Hill, Or.. Dec 18. The ap proaches to the Tolo overhead crossing settled under the pavement, rendering passage dangerous until the repair crew removed several feet of the hard sur face and- filled the hole with earth. Cracks several feet long have opened in the pavement due to the settling of the earth. A crew of men is setting heavy posts along the Blackweil hill grade, prepara tory to fencing the dangerous turns to avoid accidents. Travelers are advised to use the north side of Ropue river, between Rogue River and Gold Hill, as the construction work on the other side is not complete and rough going is found. The bridge over the Rogue river at Rogue River has been refloored to take care of the diverted traffic. New Officers for ' Community Club in Silverton Chosen Silverton, Dec. 18.

When Harvey G. Starkweather In timated that a movement might be successfully made to secure the sep aration of Milwaukie and Oak Grove from Clackamas county and make the territory a part of Multnomah county, he was greeted with, loud and continued applause the open meeting of the Milwaukie grange Saturday afternoon. Starkweather was guarded in his statements, but pointed out that there are several ways in which this could be accomplished. The Clackamas, county road bonds make up the point of con tact that sets up a current reviving the old fight to annex a portion of the coun ty to Multnomah. j . .- MILWAUKIE TAXED 150,00 i "Milwaukie district is to be 'taxed $150,000 "as its proportion of the' road bonds," said Starkweather,;- "and does not receive any benefit whatever, while districts through which roads are to be built will not even vote an 8 or 10 miU tax for their own roads as Mil waukie and other districts have done." A road meeting is to be held In Oak Grove Wednesday evening and others will be called in various districts where the county division scheme will be talked of. ' "We go 50 times to Portland where we gO once to Oregon City," Stark weather continued. "Our interests are more with Multnomah county than Clackamas, many times over. .The Clack amas river is the natural ljne," DISCUSSION IS PEAJrXED The grange held an interesting session Saturday, with dinner served at noon and a program in the afternoon. The dinner was served under the direction of Miss-Alice Wakefield, assisted by a score oi me women or the grange. Colonel Robert A.

Boddy Is to Speak. In commemoration of the .ter centenary anniversary of the arrival at Plymouth Rock of the bark May flower with Its intrepid little band of men and women, the minds of the people of this country are turning back this week to those early be ginnings of civilization and espe cially to the lives Of the pilgrims their Incentives and objectives. The pilgrims were in the beginning Separatists from the Church of Eng land ; they had established Independent (Congregational) churches at Scrooby and Gainsborough early tn the Seven teenth century and some' of them had fled to Amsterdam in 1608 to avoid per secution, and had removed to Leiden , in the following year.

An interesting fact is that the programs are printed by Miles Standish of Port land, a lineal descendant of Captain Miles Standish in the ninth generation. Boy Would Trade 7 Swims for One Bath In Health Crusade "Please, teacher, won't seven swims last summer equal one bath this win ter?" asked a little, freckle-faced urchin in one oi me fort land schools when the health chores of the Modern Health Crusade, the prin cipal educational work of the Ore gon Tuberculosis as sociation, were being discussed along with the sale of Christmas s e, a 1 a bfiALTHY MEW YEAR through which this ur is iinancea. He was assured that while the swims were fine, two baths a week would be necessary if he qualified for a. health crusader. t Since the organization of the Health Crusade, in which there are 60,000 Ore gon children enrolled, the seal sale in the schools has increased wonderfully. The 300,000 seals first issued to the schools have been exhausted and 106, 000 more have been ordered, the schools reordering including Arleta, Brooklyn, Buckman, Chapman, Fulton Park, Glen coe, George, Hawthorne, Highland, Hol laday, Hosford, Ladd, Lents, Llewellyn, Montavilla, A.

As a result of insistence by the Garage Meh's association of Port land that the city council enforce the fire ordinance prohibiting pub lic garages 5n frame buildings with in the fire tone, and determined re sistance of property owners and ga rage men nbw occupying such build ings, an extremely interesting se ance is anticipated in the city coun cil chamber next Wednesday when the matter comes up for final action. Fully a score of wealthy property own ers and garage men are expected to ap pear before the council in an attempt to continue the garage business In pres ent locations in violation of the city's fire laws. LAW IS IGNORE! Urged by the fire marshal, chief of the bureau of buildings and chief of the fire department, and following a tour of inspection by the cormnissioners, the; council early in 1920 enacted an ordi., nance forbidding the use of a frame struc ture for a public garage in the fire zone. The law became effective last June, but in a spirit of leniem-y the council gave the property owners until January h 1921, to remodel their frame structures, specifically stipulating that they could not be used for that purpose longer un less rebuilt to comply with . the fire ordi nances. . - ... Numerous frame buildings on Aldci street from Fifteenth westward are in-; eluded in the structures prohibited as public garages and neitHer owners nor tenants have moved to comply with the law, the fire marshal reports. FIVE DANGER SEES ' There is no objection to the frame buildings being used for other less dan gerous businesses, the officials claim, but it is contended that the quantity of gasoline carried in public garages makes them an extremely dangerous fire haz ard, and therefore, must be vacated by the garage men at the close of the year. ' Commissioners Bigelow and Barbur, who have long opposed the risk as sumed in- continuing the garage busi ness in these buildings, were recently delegated by the council to again view the situation and will make another in spection before the next meeting of the council to prepare for the expected con test of enforcing the law. The entire council has heretofore gone on record its being opposed to further placing -he buildings near thp frame garages in jeopardy and are expected to sustain their previous action at the Wednesday meeting. . - Woman Fined for Maintaining Still , f Marshfield. Or., Dec 18. Mrs. Arthur Moe was arrested, charged with operat ing a still at her home near the wateri front highway between Marshfield and North Bend. She is a widow with sev eral children. When the officers weijt to the house they found the still in operation and moonshine and mash,- to gether with the equipment, were seized. Mrs. Moe was' fined $100 and costs and sentenced to three months in the county jail. Owing to her children Justice Joehnk withheld commitment on the Jail sentence. She was allowed to pay a portion of the fine with the promise to pay more later. John Melcher Found Not Guilty by Jury John Melcher, accused of having com-' rnitted a statutory crime against a young girl of the St. Johns district, has been found not guilty by a jury in Circuit Judge Gatens' court on his second trial for the alleged offense. The jury dis agreed at the time of his first ' trikl before Circuit" Judge McCourt. Inaid vertently The Journal stated Saturday evening that Melcher had been fouffd guilty, the "not" having been omitted through typographical error. i.

' DISCOVERER OF (PTOMAINE GERMS ' EXPLAINS ORIGIN Bacillus Comes From Ground, Says Dr. J. C. Geiger; Prob- ems About Sexes Discussed. f i "Botulinus," his ancestry, ' habits and methods of warfare was intro- f duced to Oregon's health officers at Saturday afternoon's health confer ence by the very person who tracked him to his lair and learned the' se crets of his trade. Dr. J. C. Geiger, gurgeon for the U.TS. public health service in California. - Most of the Oregon physicians had never heard of "Botulinus." Others knew slightly of him. So Interested did they become in "Botty" that Dr. Andrew C. Smith stopped the clock so there might be no worries as to tjie lateness of the hour, while everyone satisfied his curi osity .about botulinus. BACILLUS DISCOVERED I 'Botulinus is the bacillus, discovered by Geiger, that is responsible for pto maine poisoning. Geiger found it came from the soil, infected by manure fer tilizing, from which it spreads to vege tables and fruit raised thereon, and that It iq nr. hardv that -a temperature of L-2I2 degrees and boiling four hours in test tubes doesn't phase it. The ripe olive outbreak last spring which resulted in 35 deaths, said Geiger. ruined the olive industry, an investment of $36,000,000, although all the olives infected were found to have Come from two ranches, in widely separated regions-. The bacillus affects pears, beans, asparagus, apricots and other vegetables, as well as olives and salmon. DASGEB8 POI5TE OtXT "Home canning is the most dangerous proceeding today," declared Dr. Geiger. "Commercial canners have at last seen the light and are today processing olives 40 minutes under pressure at 230 degrees Fahrenheit. Ninety minutes at 240 de grees under pressure is sufficient to ab solutely make safe canned salmon. Geiger read the results of the investiga tions of himself and K. F. Meyer on "Pacific coast distribution of bacillus botulinus in nature." The bacillus is an unnaturalized immigrant from Germany,-he said. L. . , ."''" Geiger announced ' he has found a serum that is effective on horses and goats, but that the difficulty in. applyr Ing It to human beings was in, not know ing the .amount of toxin consumed and the amount of anti-toxin necessary to combat it. SEX INSTRUCTION , . . Miss Anni Murphy told of the work at-The Cedars in the rehabilitation of delinquents, and urged more sex instruc tion among boys and girls as a solution to the problem. Miss Murphy deplored the fact that while the unfortunate girls are treated, the boys are allowed to run at large and little attempt Is made to treat them for the same ills. She recommended that at The Cedars, the patients . be given , a mental test, segregating them into feebleminded, Incorrigible and re habilitable groups, that the first be committed to. a feebleminded Institution, the second be placed in some state in stitution, and the, , rehabilitate girl placed In a house of club where she can receive board and room at a reasonable rate and enabling her to do the work for which she is best fitted. V . - TO OPEJF HOUSE . " v Miss Murphy then announced that through her efforts and with the aid of the Federation-ot Churches and a group of business mSh, such a house will soon be opened.. ' " - "We expect to open. a house of eight or 10 rooms," said she,' "with a house woman in charge who will conduct the place as near as possible like the home the girl should have, had. It will be free of red tape, the only requisite neces sary being that the E'rl conduct herself in such a manner as to cause no criti cism; : . "The Cedars hospital should receive support from the state, since a large number of our girls are from out ot town." ' Dr. Calvin S. White spoke on "The End Results of Publid Health Work," followed by a discussion by A. A. Soule of Klamath Falls. Andrew C. Smith gave a talk on "The Layman's Duty in Support of Public Health Activities," discussed by William U. Dale. COLONIAL EXHIBIT HELD IN HONOR OF TERCENTENARY Documents, : Laces, Crockery and Other Historical) Objects Are on Display at Central Library. - The primitive life of early Colo nial days .
