WILLAMETTE CITIES (Continued from Page 1.) cusston of the problem that Salem Is favorably Inclined toward solu tion of the problem locally by in stallation of a sewage disposal plan, and that his attitude in the committee's discussion will be that of urging the other cities to do likewise as rapidly as possible. Appointment of this committee was .the outcome of a stream polu tionlconference held March 21 and 22 it Eugene. Mr. Williams has filed with the city council a report of the discussion at that confer ence, including technical address es oh the board subject of stream pollution. the Willamette river presents a particularly aggravated problem because of the many .bayous which exist along its course, these fill ing with water In the wet season. The water !nthese bayous becomes stagnant and then seeps into the j main current. Also there are a number of. long laggard streams, of which Long Tom river is an outstanding example, which dry up in summer except for stagnant pools. When thef reshets come, this stagnant water Is carried al ong Into the Willamette river. Farms and pastures .along these side streams add to the problem. It was brought out. at the Eu gene conference, according to this report, that the popular idea that a stream purifies itself within a given distance has been exploded. The foreign matter is merely di lated and partly oxidized. " Sewage and industrial waste from the cities constitute another large factor in the pollution prob lem. It was brought out that there Is not so much pollution Just above Albany and above Salem as at oth er places along the river.

EXPORT DEBENTURE (Continued from Page 1.) chairman sent out the call for the Monday meeting. As a basis for his letter of op- I position. Mr. Hoover had before r. . . . i m - mm special reports prepared uj experts of the agriculture, com merce and treasury departments as to the operations of debenture plans in other countries and the probable effect if put into force in the United states. McXary Mum On e Action To Be Taken Senator McNary would not pre dict what action his committee might take in t hellglft of presi dential opposition, but he said his own position was unchanged; that he had said all along that if the plan met with executive dis approval he could not support it, as a protracted controversy over it In congress might seriously de lay the whole program of relief legislation. The president's views on the de benture plan were sought by the committee late last week. Mr Hoover then said he would ob tain the opinions of the depart mental experts and transmit them to the committee for its guidance.. In the meantime; the senators in cluded in the bill introduced by Senator McNary early this week a provision that the debenture plan might be put in operation by the proposed federal farm board upon the application of one or more farm cooperative organiza tions. Mr. Hoover in a statement yes terday urged the farm bodies to get together on measures of farm relief, and, although Mr. Taber declined to comment on his con ference with the president, there was a more or less general im pression that the suggestion had been made that his organization forego the pressing of the deben ture proposal at this time. Upon leaving the White House the grange master did say that he expected "a good farm bill before j the fourth of July." 1 HOOVER OPPOSED TO ma9mmm " " POELY . a and HER v PALS ! troth laughs and entertainment for ybuThis (world famous comic creation has just been secured t -by this newspaper.

IS HERE PRICED PASSES AWAY Brother of Former Kaiser Dies Near Kiel; German Ruler Saddened (Continued from Fags 1.) under all circumstances, but some Quarters thought it was not in con eeivable that he might request permission to enter In this excep tional case. Official circles, how ever, said that they were certain that the former Kaiser would not apply, for he did not when his first wife was buried at Potsdam. Prince Frederick Henry Now Senior In Line Prince Frederick Henry, 54, son or tne late ranee Aibrecnt of Russia, is now the senior of the Hohenzollern family residing in Germany.

(AP) A few men now active in American public, life recall that vivid day more than 27 years ago when Admiral Prince Henry of Prussia came to Washington with all the pomp and state befitting his royal blood and his special mission as good will ambassador to the American government and people from his brother. Emperor Wilhelm of Germany. Great Display Marks Historic Occasion Yet It was a goregous occasion that left its stamp on the news reports of the day, February 24, 1902. The Prince and his large suite were In Washington little more than 12 hours, arriving by special train in the morning and leaving again for New York at midnight. An exchange of visits with President Roosevelt, calls upon the resident ambassadors in Washington of other great na tions, visits to the house of repre sentatives and the senate, and a state dinner at the White House made it a full day for the royal guest of the nation. Platforms and runways at the depot had been spread with car pet for the royal guest, and cav alry, marines and squadrons of mounted police led the string of carriages, all new and used for the first time that day, to the White House grounds. There the scarlet coated marine band wait ed to pay musical honors while a battery of artillery boomed in sa lute from behind the executive mansion. Visitor Received By Roosevelt The visit was brief, President Roosevelt receiving his distin guished guest in the blue room and escorting him to an adjoin ing chamber for presentation to Mrs. Roosevelt and to Alice Roosevelt, now wife of Speaker Longworth of the house. Miss 1 Roosevelt was to christen next day the imperial yacht meteor la a New 'Jersey shipyard as a fur ther mark of the will toward friendship between the two na tions that Just IS years later were to be at war. Among the members of Prince Henry's staff the reporters made special note of Admiral Von Tir- pits, largely because of the full, black beard he wore, a beard that was to become known the. world over later In the dark days when German submarines reached the peak of effectiveness.

B R.A Instrument N See Special window President Hoover upholding Mel lon, the propriety of his serving had been questioned on the basis of an old statute forbidding me secretary of the treasury to be in terested in trade or commerce. Senator Reed, republican, Penn avlvanla. an Intimate friend of Mr. Melli), laid the attorney gen eral's opinion before the commit tee along with a. letter from the secretary stating that his sole business connections were those of a stockholder. The committee adjourned with out fixing- a time to discuss wheth er to proceed oa the inquiry into Mellon'a service, which was or dered by! the senate in adopting the resolution of Senator McKel lar. democrat. Tennessee. Chair man Norris said there was no in tention of calling Mr. Mellon, in view of his letter. Senator Norris said the ques tlon had narrowed to the proposl tlon of whether a stockholder in business enterprises could serve as secretary of the treasury under the old statute now In effect. Sen ator Reed replied that if a stock holder could not be secretary of the trea;ry, every secretary for the last 100 years had served in violation of the. law and it would be difficult to fill the post here after. The opinion of Mr. Mitchell came somewhat as a surprise. There had been no intimation that the president had asked for ruling. PHILIPPE TIFF WASHINGTON, April 20 (AP) -Secretary Stlmson has informed the house ways and means com mittee that if proposed restriction of free sugar Imports from the Philippines is carried out, it would be ."inevitably interpreted as a betrayal of trust by th United States toward a dependent peo ple." The state department head told the committee that the proposed restriction was entirely unneces sary to protect American beet or cane suger interest, as free entry of Philippine sugar Into the Unit ed States "does not and can not affect the price of sugar in the American market." Mr. Stlmson said the issue lies between Cuban and Philippine su. gar rather than between Philip pine and domestic sugar. He added that the present attempt to re strict sugar from the Philippines comes directly from those inter ests which have invested In Cuban sugar."
