FRIDAY. AUGUST 23, 1SZ1. THE OREGON DAILY JOU RNAL, PORTLAND, OREGON SECRETARY FALL i LEAVES FAVORABLE IMPRESS ON WEST " Only the committee 'which traveled from Kastern and Central Oregon to In terview Albert B. Fall,, secretary of the Interior, remained in the city this morning- as evidence that Portland -was the host Thursday of one of President Hard ing's cabinet officers. With as little formality as his coming the secretary and accompanying depart ment officials slipped out of the city Thursday night to go to Tacoma for a visit to . Rainier national park. And de spite tlie -trief time given committee men, they, with every other business man 'who met the secretary, ;felt confident thai? the-Wst can have faith In the new interior department head. Secretary Fall had little time to give committees because he was forming his own opinions and : "making no decisions yet," and 'because he; was anxious to spend as ' much time as possible on the Columbia river highway. PROUD OF HIGHWAY In his anxiety to visit the, Columbia drive he was not the least disappointed. From IP until 11 o'clock in the morning he conferred with visitors at the Mult nomah hotel and at 11 o'clock he left for the highway trip, returning late In the evening, about an hour before his train departed for the north. "I don't blame the people of Portland for being proud of their Columbia high way," -said the secretary upon his re turn. "In my day I have, traveled over many scenic roads but this road of yours is beyond a doubt the most marvelous I route I have ever been over." i In 'conclusion the distinguished visitor promised that he would spend as much of his time in the West as possible dur ing' his term of office and also promised ta ; urge President Harding to come to the Northwest for "the revelation of a lifetime." FAXMI3TG IS DISCrSSED ; A. P. Davis, director, of reclamation f of the department, joined the party Thursday night and left for the North. Thursday noon Davis spoke before the agricultural committee of the Chamber of Commerce at its weekly luncheon. Davis spoke on the advantages of In tensive and Intelligent farming and de clared that the West should have the full support of congress on irrigation matters at all times because of the value of this develonment work to the nation. I "the party Journeyed into the 'state of Washington in the private car of E. O. MeCormick. vice president of the South ern Pacific railway system, who accom panied the party. Other members of the party were Stephen T. Mather, director of national parks ; W. M. Reed, chief en gineer of . the Indian service ; William j McMurray, general passenger agent, and A. S. Edmonds, newly elected traffic manager for the O-W. R. N. grand jury fpllowing his plea of guilty to a statutory charge involving Miss Hochhalter.

" ' Already "the wheels have been set In motion 'which 'will accomplish this end, forest .-officials - having -met- at Baker, Or - this week to confer on ' appraisal program work so that 'a new scale of prices could be arranged. - E. - N. Kavanaugb, assistant district forester, returned from Baker Thursday and said that as a result of the meeting had agreed to, cooperate en the appraisal of the lands In this district so that a report could be made to' congress by the fall of 19JJ. ' v - . . At the meeting were all -the officials in charge of erasing lands in the North West.. Several national officials were also present. ' including C.

', ; Proposal toReclaim 27,000 Acres Near Redmprid; Is. Made Salem. Aug-. J. A plan for the recla mation of 27.000 acres 'of land in the Central Oregon Irrigation district, near Redmond, in Deschutes and Crook coun ties! was presented to the state desert land board. Thursday, by Oswald West and J. C Potter, representing the North Canal company, and Walter Daly, rep resenting the Title Jk Trust company of Portland. The proposal was taken under advisement. - The North Canal company Is a new corporation organised for the purpose of taking over certain remaining Interests of the Central Oregon Irrigation com pany, in Deschutes county and tor the reclamation of additional lands. The proposed reclamation will -embrace one of the big Deschutes projects by the stor age of w ater In the Crane Prairie res ervoir site. ' 1 Sldink in .Thresier - i - Starts Near-Panic ! Yersaine. Ohio," Aug. SC. OZ. P.) There was a near-panic among threeh- era at Oscar Worch's farm when a tana band pitched an animal Into the thresh- In machine with a bunch of wheat "ItJ. was a skunk. A combination of levers and windlass baa been Invented that can be attached to any dump wagon to enable one man . to lift Its sides when heavily loaded. Biff ! Bang! Boom! 'Wet Goods' Splash In Great Explosion Meagre details of a cellar "tragedy.1 in which a dozen bottles of newly-made wine and 10 quarts of home brew were wrecked In an explosion that shattered plaster, rattled crockery, and struck ter ror in the peaceful neighborhood of the near-east side, have reached police head quarters. 1 The debacle, which has smashed the reputation of an amateur brewmaster and left a nightmare of regrets for those whose thirst for refreshments goes un slaked, incidentally terminated an ill fated partnership in the liquid venture. ; Who owns the "wet goods" that es caped the "catastrophe" the man of the house or his partner? That is the ques tion, that has wrecked the partnership. - The explosion, or series of blasts, went off about the noon hour, when the mem bers of the family were seated at the dinner table. "Bang ! bang ! rattlety bang ! went the overcharged wet goods like' a battery ot . four-pounders. The gushers of foam sprayed the ceil ing and rivulets of delicious wine and the amber fluid battled for first honors in the residential scuppers. Cinrcumstantial evidence indicated that the wine bottles opened the bom bardment, and that the home brew con tainers stampeded in' the free-for-all. All that was left of the growler were a few Jar tops and the wine bottle caps alone told their story of the carnage. The disheartened brewmaster gathered ' up the fragments and estimated his dam ages at $11.60 for the liquids. The pro prietor of the premises will put in a . claim for damages to- his property, it is said. Farm Hand Would Work 10 Years for, a4-Year-Old Girl Salem. Aug. -26.
