S Need of Making Pledges Into Cash Faced To Meet Rockefeller Terms Endowment pledges secured in the recent campaign as well as well as those rewritten from the campaign of former years, total $225,000 including some estate pledges recently received accord ing to announcement Wednesday by Vice President Oliver. The uni versity is seeking to secure pledges of $300,000 by October 1, 1929, to be used in obtaining $140,000 in cash from the Rocke feller foundation. Oliver said Wednesday that ev ery dollar In cash available would be met by 54c tn cash from the Rockefeller board although it is possible that the time limit al lowed by the foundation may be extended. Problem Faced To obtain the Rockefeller moneys the university faces he problem of ronvestlng its pledges into cash. One method suggested has been tba securing of a- loan backed by the pledges as collat eral. The bequest of $100,000 recent ly made by Eric V. Houser in hit will, will not be counted in the moneys raised by the school inas much as the Rockefeller Interests bar gifts made in wills from the funds which they agree to match.

Marion Lake Retention is Advocated by Albany Men; Private Interests Opposed Retention of the Marion refuge and its eventual power development by municipal rather than privately owned -interests is advocated by the Santiam Fish and Gamer commission in an extensive state- mentlssued by A. G. Prill, its president, following a meeting held with J. G. Kelly of Portland, who represents the North west Power Co. in an application made to devekm certain power righfc. in the Marion district. The statement, in part, In reply to the speech' of J. G. Kelly of Portland and representa tive of the Northwest Power com pany, before the Albany Chamber of Commerce last week, wherein it was charged that 'tbe officers and members of the Santiam Fish and Game association and the city council of Albany, were hasty and not fully advised as to the facts, the Santiam Fish and Game asso ciation through its officers most emphatically deny the allegation. L. G. Kelly admitted in his talk before a combined meeting of the chamber of- commerce, the city council, members of the county court and representative of the Santiam Fish and Game associa tion held in the committee room ot the St. Francis hotel that his first filing was made on or about the year 190$. The original fil ing was never completed and al lowed to lapse. On December 8, 1928, J. G. Kelly, R. O. Young and J. H. Walker revived the project by filing with the Corporation commissioner papers creating a new corporation. The capital stock was given as 800 shares of no par ralue. Would Destroy Wilderness Surrounding the lake and streams named including White water creek, and situated within the Santiam National forest, la to be found a natural wilderness area abounding in game and fish. Here lies one of the few remain ing wilderness areas to be found in the state of Oregon. The de velopment of hydro-electric power win forever destroy this wilder ness area. The development as outlined will result in the absolute destruc tion of Marion and Linn Falls, Gooch Falls, Canyon Creek falls and four miles of Marion river. It Is the contention of the ob jectors that the area to be de spoiled if this application is grant ed, that for recreational purposes, both for the residents of the state OBITUARY Savage James Franklin Savage, Marion county pioneer, died Tuesday af ternoon at the home of his daugh ter, Mrs. B.

As far as It can be reasonably determined there is no need for the development of hydro-electric energy in said lake and streams, nor does it seem that such de velopment will be needed in the near future. There is question and doubt as to tbe financial ability of the applicant to carry successfully to completion the proposed hydro electric development. Power Valne Questioned The value of this development to Albany and the Willamette val ley is questioned. The public service commission regulates the rates of all utilities. Without rate reduction there is no need of the proposea development. At a re cent hearing the representative of the Mountain States Power com pany assured those present that thex, were in a position to take care of any and all demands for power, no matter how large. Industry is not flocking to Portland and they have the de velopment on the Clackamas: Medford situated in the heart of the most highly energized district in Oregon is not growing by leaps and bounds. Eugene is constructing a mu nicipal and public owned plant on the McKenzie. The mighty de velopment electrically of Califor nia that Mr. Kelly mentioned is largely public and municipally owned. Los Angeles and San Francisco are the proud possessors of plants publically and not pri vately owned. Portland right now is concerned over the fact of industry leaving that city and locating in the state of Washington, which possesses power as low as one-half of one per cent per kllowat hour. All' made possible through public owned utilities. Not lone since a five million dollar paper industry after making a surrey of Portland finally located In Tacoma. Indus try after industry has done like wise. Ashland as a small city with many attractions is the. proud possessor of a public owned plant and enjoys rates far below that of cities supplied with current and Etta Burns FURS AND REMODELING at Millers $4.95 For the bast Tori reading lenses ExamiaaMaa Tnm Wo lasara your gUtsas agsiait breakage THOMPSOX-CLTJTSCH OPTICAL CO. 110 N.

And finally, the growth of in dustry in the valley may be pro moted by cheaper power than can be obtained elsewhere. Show to industry that cheaper power is available in the cities of the valley and industry will come. Industry seeking locations in Oregon have located in Tacoma and the areas that are served by the municipal ly owned plants ot Seattle and Tacoma. Why Barter Away Power T Public owned and municipally owned utilities may be needed in Oregon and if so why dissipate and barter away the wonderful cesource on the North Fork of the Santiam? To make the statement that J. G. Kelly and associates are finan cially able to finance the project is not sufficient; to make the fur ther statement that the proposed development has the backing of some ot the mightiest men in the electric world is also open to ques tion unless it can be followed and backed by a statement of fact and detail sufficiently strong to be ac cepted as final. This we do know powerful fi nancial interests invest money only when a satisfactory return can be expected. The wildest flight ot the imag ination cannot see anything any where that will bring a return that will Justify the expenditure of from four to sixteen millions- of dollars. According to press re ports and quoting Mr. Kelly, in Albany it was said the develop ment would require an expendi ture of four millions, in Salem the sum has been boosted to six teen. Nothing to Lost As a section of Oregon we lose nothing If the application is de nied. Show to capital that indus try Is awaiting a development of the character proposed and that the demand Is sufficient to justify the expenditure ot the money in volved it can very easily be put under way. The big idea is that if time per mitted the entire public, with pos sibly a small exception, could be educated to the thought that the development when made shall be public owned and never permitted to become the owner in fee simple, in perpetuity forever of any pri vate individual, concern or corpo ration.
