STEIVER EXTOLS
RAPIDS PROJECT
(Con tinned Prom Fit One)
project is by far the most important
piece of developments so far as Port
land and Oregon are concerned, since
the transcontinental . railroad." said
Steiwer, who quoted statistics to prove
that one half million horsepower could
be developed with a primary horse
power cost of $9 to $10 per horsepower j
per year as compared with retail
prices of today ranging .from $60 to
$$00 per horsepower.
He said that this cheap horsepower
would make possible the irrigation of
land that t could not. be reached by
gravity and that a total of 270,000
acres could be reached by Water and
made to produce just as heavily as the
Yakima lands.
With the irrigation of this land he
predicted the natural sequence of
greater taxable property and colonisa
tion. ' Further he aaidVthe provision
of this horsepower would assist the
railroads in the electrification of their
lines and induce industries to locate
in the state, thus increasing the pay
rolls of the Northwest. Still further
he contended that the completion of
the project would -make possible cheap
er river transportation and consequent
development of the Inland Empire and
Portland to their, mutual benefit.
DESTIJfT OP PORTLASJ v
"In my opinion the destiny of the
greater Portland and the greater Ore
gon is absolutely one -with i the im
provement and the Oanalixation of the
Columbia river. We need ' a brod
open highway for water transporta
tion Into the Inland Empire. -The hydro-electric
development ' will, 'mean
cheap power and the reclamation of
arid lands will mean production in al
most : unlimited quantities.
"These factors combined will bring
new population, new wealth, new In
dustry and new- commerce, .vibe de
velopment of .the-project means then
that we have brought , to Portland's
door a new Willamette valley. It will,
in fact, bring to the very doors of
Oregon's metropolis a, wonderfully rich,
thriving district where there is now
almost nothing." . " - -:
Other-members of the visiting party
delivered short addresses in raworJtcoart at Salt Lake City.
of Steiwer's statements.-
Dr. Penrose ia his brief address said
that Portland is too sieek. too opu
lent and perhaps too las? and indiffer
ent to realise the possibilities which
lie In the. rapids project not nry for
Oregon, but also for Portland.; . He
urged the city to- awaken to the 'op
portunity along the upper Columbia

DECISION HOT TO
RETARD PAYMENT,
SAYS BRAMVELL
The opinion handed down by the cir
cuit court relative) to- the preferred
rights. of the savings depositors in the
defunct State bank of Portland win In
no way retard the work of the state
banking department, in the preparation
of dividend checks covering, all claims
filed In the savings department, ac
cording to Frank C BramweiL, state
superintendent of banks; in a statement
made this morning. Under the order
entered the department will proceed to
declare a dlviden. on behalf of the sav
ings epoeitors, representing 40- per cent.
An appeal from Judge Tucker's deci
sion will be made at once and an effort
will be made to obtain a decision from
the supreme court within the next few
days.
"If we properly construe the meaning
of the opinion," stated Bramwell, "the
effect would be that the savings depos
itors at this time would receive their
dividend of 40 per cent declared from
the cash now on hand in the savings
department. We also have on hand in
the commercial department sufficient
cash to pay the commercial depositors
a dividend of 40 per cent, but after the
savings depositors receive their divi
dend of 40 per cent the cash in the com
mercial department would be divided
pro rata between, thev commercial and
savings depositors. -
"We will probably arrange to have
the dividend checks all prepared in the
commercial department, so that in the
event the decision of this court is re
versed the depositors In both depart
ments will receive their dividends of 40
per cent without any delay.
"The effect of this opinion Is entirely
out of harmony with the views and
practice of the department. The liqui
dation of other insolvent institutions
has been Conducted on the basis where
the savings depositors were paid from
funds received from the savings assets,
and the commercial depositors have
been paid from recoveries on assets of
th commercial department. . Liquida
tion on this basis is In harmony with
our construction of the statute, as well
as the opinion which I have received
from the attorney general.
"All matters will be held ip abeyance
until the supreme court has considered
all questions presented. I am confident
that the court will sustain the view
expressed by the attorney general as
well as the established practice of the
department In other liquidations." .
Boy, 18, Who Eloped
With . Girl, 15, Not

ample to harvest and market advan
tageously to the farmers the "bumper
Crops" being raised this year.

to the farmer representatives why he
considers the ship subsidy bill of such
importance to the nation and particu
larly the farmer interest.

sidy is from the midwest farming
sections, and according to this report
the president proposes to convince the
farm leaders of the Imperative neces
sity of the bill.
S The president desires the views of
farmer representatives on the proposed
transfer of the bureau of forestry and
the bureau of markets from the de

ment of the interior and the depart
ment of commerce respectively.

Clam Digging Too
Slow for Racing
Auto; It Burns Up
Contrast between the thrills of speed
performances to the inertia of standing
by a clam hole, while Its owner dug
for the succulent "razor" was too much
for Charley StrauhaJ's big racing car
at Long Beach, Wash., which back
fired itself to death last week. While
he was digging clams on the ocean
beach in front of the Breakers hotel,
bis car caught fire and the flames
which resulted reduced the machine
to scrapiron.
Toung Strauhal, who is an overseas
veteran, is known as one of the imoet
daring auto drivers on North Beach,
and when out for a spin, had no trou
ble in getting the right of way from
more timid motorists who dodge crab
holes rather than take "em on the leap.

hhTfomst
at 85 for today
Portland was an oasis of coolness
by comparison in a widespread area
of intense and stifling heat which
spread over the northwest Sunday and
sent thermometers soaring to marks
ranging from 96 to 110 degrees at
neighboring points.
A maximum temperature of only 88
degrees was recorded here Sunday ;
the same high mark which was reached
Saturday. The top mark predicted by
the district wefftMer bureau office for
today was 85 detrrees.
In the meantime the """mercury in
other northwestern territory did some
high-flying stunts. High temperatures
reported today were : Roseburg, 86 ;
Snlem, 98 ; Yakima. Walla Walla and
Boise 100; Medford. 102; Umatilla,
104 and Red Bluff. Cal.. 110.
Even the district weather forecaster,
E. L. Wells, who had been away from
the weather-office for several daysf
hurried to Portland on one of the fast
est trains to escape the stifling tem
peratures of Eastern Oregon and
Idaho. .Wells declared the tempera
ture felt like 150 degrees on the train
coach in which he was riding through
that territory. He returned to the
city early this morning.
Mountain streams, beaches and the
river all drew their summer quota of
Portland Sut-door enthusiasts.
