THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND OREGON MONDAY, FEBRUARY 14, . 1S21. i ) IRRIGATION BOND GRAFT CHARGE IS MET WITH DE NIAL Portland. Feb. 14. To the Editor of The Journal This statement Is made in order that the progress which irrigation development has enjoyed in the state of Oregon may not be Interrupted as a result of the speeches made Friday on the .floor or the house, at Salem, by Represen tatives Burdick and - Gallagher, " in connection with the so-called "irriga tion bills."- - . I Ths statements made by them were absolutely false and misleading. ' Every question on which a statement was made on the floor Friday had bean ho clearly gone into and disproved at the public hearing on the bills Tuesday evening that no man of ordinary intelli gence, which I regard Messrs. Burdick and Gallagher to have, could have mis understood them. ,j t ; OUTSIDE MOWET. 3f jEEDED . Oregon cannot absorb 'all the bonds it originates ; and." as funds must come from outside the state, syndicates of dif ferent bond dealers have been organized to underwrite the several issues, and I hope that this attack will not stop an effort which has already brought into the state for this Irrigation development over 93.600,000 of outside capital. The fact that bonds are bought at 90 cents does not indicate a profit of 10 points, or that the selling district is los ing 10 per cent. It proves that for some reason (In this ease because the law re quires bonds shall not bear over per cent) they bear a rate lower than they can be sold for at par on the market, and, therefore, must be discounted." This is easily understood, 'when the bends of the principal foreign governments have sold through the same period, to yield as high ss 11 per cent, and 'when United States government bonds are selling to yield over per centj. , PBOOF SOT HAVE - - - The mere fact that a bond. during any three year period is once offered at par does not prove the sale of any number at that price. It Is a fact that irrigation district bonds, some of which were orlg- - inally offered' at par, have been subse quently retailed as low as 92. j No contractor works except for ari ex-; pec ted profit. The fact that a contract! ,is let at cost,, plus IS per cent; with a limited figure to which this 15per centj applies, does not mean that the, district j loses this 15 per cent, or pays it in ad- i d it ion to any other profit which the con- tractor gets, but the IS per cent is. 4n, stead of a usual 25 to 36 per cent that any contractor adds to his estimates of1 cost or labor and material and equipment when figuring a piece of work on a unit price basts or at a lump sum figure., On this basis a unit pricb or lump sum contract would have cost the districts the cost of labor, material and equip ment plus 23 to 35 per cent instead of plus IS per cent as paid in the cost plus contracts. i .. - - No district whose bonds have been sold to a syndicate, which It has been my duty to manage, has suffered the loss of one penny by graft, extortion, or Im proper oe excessive profit. Thi would have- been easily proved, even, to the satisIacUan of Messrs, Bur. 'Btck and Gallagher, , had their real la tercet actually been, the protection of Ihe districts and the farmers.-. . JttOTIYES ARK SEJI - " V - V The 'fnotrves for the Introduction 'of these bills, shd the Interests behind them, were fully exposed; if the public hearing ; Tuesday evening. This drove Messrs. Burdick and Gallagher to prac tically abandon on Friday their attack on Mr. Cupper. r i-u ..-.. , Of the total membership of the house of representatives, hot a single voice was raised in defense of the bills excepting these of Messrs. Burdick and Gallagher. Their remarks, mad when they were protected by the privilege of the house and which could not be answered by those whom they charged with improper practices, ss a result of, Tuesday's hear ing were not expected to have any, effect upon the members of the house, to whom they were ostensibly addressed, but were made as a smoke screen to deceive the public and to becloud the issue to their misrepresented constituents, who were practically as one against the bills. ; RALPH H.

Of spe cial interest to teachers ; and college graduates is a bill introduced in the house this morning by Representative Charlerf '- C Hindman , of - Multnomah county. . It opens ! the way for certifi cation of graduates for teaching in schools "other than high schools. -' 'The bill . amends section 4948, Oregon laws, eliminating the provision that per sons having graduated from standard colleges and taken a certain amount of specified work shall be eligible to certifi cation to teach i. "only . in the high schools of the state," and makes the reading of this clause simply "schools of the state." r This, it is anticipated, will renew a fight that has appeared In every legis lature for years past. A considerable group of persons,' led by club women, urge that the -university graduate should be permitted to teach In the elementary schools, while some of the prominent educators - of the state contend that their "training is more adaptable to teaching in high schools and that the elementary school teacher should be re quired to take a regular normal train ing course.

"A repetition of the Dlav a Athn Thursday night Is plaaaed. , By Alexander J. Jones . United Nevs SUTf ConnpoHlcnt Chicago. Feb. 14. The heart hun ger of a mother for the child from whom she was separated caused Mrs. Carl Foetisch of Hammond, Ind., to live so completely a sub-oonscious life wherein she was back with her child, that she has now become one of the most remarkable cases of dual personality in medical record. Specialists who examined the woman here Sunday are authority for this state ment. In her old life' she was a pas sionately devoted mother : In the new, a cold, detached nun-like personality. MEMOKY IS GOICE Mrs. Foetisch was found wandering about the streets last week, a victim of retrograde amnesia. She did not know her name or one incident of her his tory. Cases of this kind are common enough, and she was taken to the South Shore hospital for the rest that, It was thought,: would enable her to identify herself. But investigation of her case by Doc tors Herman N. Bundesen and Alexander S. Hershfield, special lata, brought to light the following remarkable facts : While Mrs. Foetisch does not remem ber a single thing of her former life she Is keenly alert about everything that is happening to her now. She is rational and Interested. She is completely detached, however, from any. sentimental 'emotion. When her husband sits by her bedside and ad dresses her with little endearments she shrinks away and asks ; the doctors to "take that strange man "away. IS 3IE2I TALIiT XEElt f t :. Mentally keen, she is interested in the tales the doctors and nurses tell her about who George Washington was and who Wood row Wilson is, and about the world war. . . . While she does not recognize any of old life, she after they are once introduced to her and remembers things that have happened since her at tack of amnesia with better memory than the ordinary person. The only sign of remembering any thing of-her old life since she was af flicted came Sunday when her small son, Vincent, now In custody of ber first hus band, was placed in her arms. She held the boy quietly for some moments Then, with a hysterical cry, she clutched him to her passionately and became so hys terical that the doctors took the boy away. This Is a case out Of the story books. said Dr. Hershfield. "Mrs. Foe tisch. separated from her child by di vorce from her first husband, evidently lived a subconscious life wherein she was with the child all the time. Her sub conscious life grew on her- until it be came so absorbing that she forgot every thing -about her real identity : SHE IS B0R2T AGAIN" , "She is perfectly rational now and today she told me how stupid it was of her to go around without any mark of identification on her person. She is in many respects, born again.. 'She can read, but it makes her nervous." "When she clutched her child to her she showed the cause of her trouble,1 said Dr. Bundeson. "She had become so heart hungry for her child that she-, de veloped the most remarkable case of ret rograde amnesia I have ever seen.: She evidenly lived, in her .jnind, day . and night, with that baby. "Now we will have to work , through the child to make her remember her old life. She is heart hungry for the baby. She wants it with all her being. It may take a month or two,' but we be lieve she will recover-, if she can. have that child of hers." ' ' . r ; Mrs. Foetisch was allowed to visit" her son, Vincent, once every two weeks by a court order after the divorce - from the first husband. She was on her way to see the boy when her memory snap ped. legislature by Senator Thomas, who has prepared a senate Joint resolution to that end which, he. will introduce this after noon, -'--.. ." Thomas, in his resolution, calls atten tion to the volume of unfinished busi ness still before the legislature and de clares that- the problem of reappointment cannot be given the attention to which it is entitled in the few days yet - re maining of the session. His resolution would continue in effect the present leg islative committee on reapportionment which would be instructed to continue its study of the problem and report back to the session of 1921. -s - y Roosevelt Highway Bill, Amended, Due In Senate Tuesday State House, Salem, Feb. 14. The Roosevelt highway bill, amended, is due to come back into the floor of the sen ate tomorrow morning, accompanied by a companion bill fathered by Senator Hall providing for the creation of road districts in much the same manper as irrigation districts now are formed. The Roosevelt highway bill will carry an amendment when it is reported back, providing that the $2,500,000 authorized by the original act may be expended In the construction of the Roosevelt high way whenever the counties through which it would run would match the fund dollar, for dollar This bill, coupled with Senator Hall's road district bill, is expected to solve the Roosevelt highway pussle The dis trict plan would enable the coast coun ties to form a road construction dis trict and bond themselves as a district for $2,500,000 for the purpose of match ing the fund carried in the Roosevelt highway bill. DEPUTY SHERIFFS RAID ROADHOUSES: .Silver Tea Announced - Vancouver, Wash.. Keb. 14. Th La dies of the O. A. R. will meet at the Library hall Tuesday afternoon for a liver tea from 2 to 6 o'clock. A fancy work sale will be held. , SIX ARE ARRESTED There was liquor on the hip ia the roadhouses Saturday night. There are six men in the county Jail from among the gay revelers Sunday morning. : But the up-to-date jargon that "he who drinks is wealthy" rang true and the joyous trouble makers, alias the knights of the flask, were released on $250 ball each. ; An early morning raid on road houses out of Porltand by deputy sheriffs stopped for a few minutes the parties in progress at the Bog inn and the Twelve Mile house en the Base Line road. FBOraiETOB ARRESTED There were automobile parties at' both places and there was much of dancing and .some eating. The jass muslo had not lost its Saturday night gayety and none was afflicted with the 'Sunday blues.' - " At the Hog inn the moonshine was adding a clamor that rose In opposi tion to the melody of the musicians, say the sheriff. The officers went on a still hunt for the "hootch" that was evi dently the life of the party. Two quarts were found in the room of A. B. Ilog, proprietor. He was arrested. ;v But deputy sheriffs are far too wise to believe that a dozen or two people can get unroariously hilarious on two quarts of moonshine. And the. party was' go ing good, the officers admit. Continued search disclosed the evidence of more moonshine, and three of the most popu lar members were taken into custody. The three were Jack Grohs, M. Brown and Richard Rosburg. They were fined $15 each this morning by District Judge Hawkins. .. QUIET AT MOST PLACES Many were the sobs of feminise protest and the bitter wait of thirsty men whose partying was continually making them thirstier as they left the inn with their wet cargo, say the sheriffs. A second visit included the Taxi Inn and Canary -, cottage ' and Twelve 'Mile house. Taxi inn and Canary 'cottage were abandoned by the Saturday night parties. . . v.; Several cars were parked at the Twelve Mile house, and there were eight supper parties in progress when the sheriffs called. The parties were undisturbed because of their peaceful appearance. Evidently they were eating and dancing and carrying their liquor well. r , , But over In a corner a little card game was in - session -and the. players were pouring, their own, IL Cohen and Jack Martin were arrested for ha ing moon shine onrthe hip and taken into custody by the deputy sheriffs. The- night was dark and stormy; but the moon sailed high, says the raiders.
