Protests continue to reach the
state engineering deparment
against the proposal of the Cen
tral Oregon Irrigation company
to sell out its interest in the Cen
tral Oreeon Droject to the Title &
! Trust Company of Portland, re
j taining only sufficient rights to
i take- care of contracts with set
tlers in the P.lot Butte unit.
The latest protest is from James
R. Linn and Russell Catlln of Sa
lem and F. W. McCaffery of
Bend. representing the Piloa
Butte Ranch company, who tear
that such a transfer would leave
them short of water. A communi
cation signed by McCafrery and
Catlin says:
I)u Bois Report Correct
"It is well known to the set
tlers that an official of the Cen
tral Oregon Irrigation company in
answering the DuBols report says
it was the hardest thine he ever
had to answer because what he
said about seepage losses was all
true."
Another protest has been re
ceived from attorneys represent
ing the Central Oregon Irrigation
district who fear that the Central
Oregon Irrigation company, by
disposing of all its assets and not
its liabilities, would be judgment
proof in event there should be oc
casion to sue.
Hearing Demanded.
Since the proposed transfer was
presented to the desert land
board last week by James Stearns
and Denton G. Burdick. repre
senting the Irrigation company, R.
E. Smith representing the Title &
Trust company, and Oswald West
who appeared at the request of
both parties, two other protests
have been received, one from the
settlers demanding an opportunity
to be heard.
The attorneys who put the pro
posal before the board last week
wanted the board to act immedi
ately ana presented a written or
der for the board to sign in ap
proval of the transfer . State En
gineer Cupper, however, refused
toaccede to this, declaring he
wanted to ascertain the attitude
of all interested persons.

Senator Borah had re-Introduced
his proposal in the senate and
moved to suspend the rules to

Senator Pomerene, Democrat,
Ohio, gave notice he also intend

endment to authorize the presi
dent to delay the building pro
gram six months while an effort
was being made to arrange a con
fa ence between the United States,
Great Britain and Japan. Should
an agreement to limit construc
tion be reached, the president
might suspend the building pro
gram In whole or In part.
President Considered.
It is understood administration
leaders plan to dolay action on
proposals for international dis
armament because of the d?sire
of the president not to have this
question initiated in congress lit

relations.
As favorably reported today by
the naval committee, the annua
i.aval bill, which failed at the
last session, provides not onlv
funds for continuing construction
on the uncompleted 1916 pro

20.000 In excess of the 100 000

COBLENZ. May 4. (By the
Associated Press.) All American
non-commissioned officers and
men, np to and including serg
eants, who have married Euro
peans actually In the Rhlneland
have been ordered home. The or
der affects about 500, who will
sail with their wives from Ant
werp May 12.
This, together with various
movements of American troops,
coinciding with the Knox resolu
tion, is interpreted by the Ger
mans as a prelude to the with
drawal of the American force.
The American authorities state,
however, that In accordance with
instructions from Washington in
November, when Secretary Baker
was instructed to reduce the ef
fectives there are actually 14.000
American troops in Europe, in
cluding those at Antwerp, Cher

Replying to a question in the
house of commons tonight, Cecil
B. Harmsworth. under secretary
for foreign affairs, said that mo3t
unfortunate disturbances bad
broken out in Upper Silesia.
The trouble, be said, appeared
to have arisen from rumors In
the Polish newspapers that th-i
allies -had arrived at a decision
as to the territory to be allocat
ed to Germany and Poland. No
such decision had been reached,
he said.
The outbreak, he continued,
was widespread and had develop
ed into something like a rebellion
in different parts of Silesia' and
the Insurgents had come in col
lision with allied forces. He said
his latest information was that
the allied commission in Silesix
had issued a statement that it
would take every step open to it
to restore order.
Early Order Is Hope.
Then, he said, he trusted tho
allied governments would proceed-
to the demarcation of boun
daries in Silesia. He said he
trusted order soon would be re
stored. No British troops, he de
clared. 1iad been engaged In the

Wouldn't you honestly like to car
