Drought Suffering in Bend
fiagion Said Severe
As in m&e West
Alleged distressing: conditio 0
in Central Oregon, 4ae to lack of
water in the Deschutes river and
other streams, ware called to the
attention of President Hoover in
a telegram prepared here Wed
nesday .by Governor Norblad.
Special reference was mad ta
Governor Norblad "s telegram to
conditions resulting from an In
sufficiency vjf water n the De
schutes river, in connection with
the Arnold and Lone Pine Irriga
tion districts.
"Similar conditions also exist
in other rivers aad lakes in this
district," continued Governor
Norblad's telegram. "The water
Is insufficient to supply the lands
within the irrigated districts. Re
lief is possible through action of
the national government at small
cost in providing storage and
elimination of the as af water
for power purposes.
Need Pointed Oat
By Cramb of Bend
"I shall appreciate any assis
tance you can give in the matter."
Governor Norblad's telegram
to President Hoover was request
ed by L. K. Cramb, secretary of
the Bead chamber of commerce,
who previously sent a lengthy
message to the president inform
ing him of conditions in central
Oregon.
Cramb's telegram to President
Hoover reads in part: -
"In liae with your program of
drouth relief In the middle west
we de3ire to bring to your attea
tioa more serious condition in
central Oregon due to shortage
of water for irrigation and ven
ture to suggest Immediate invest!
eation and action by the national
government.
"Due to dry cycle water ia De
schutes river and other streams
and lakes insufficient to supply
all lands withta irrigation sis
trlcts and unless relief is provid
ed several hundred families will
lose results of years of effort and
their farms will be abandoned.
Cramb, in a letter to Governor
Norblad urging assistance, de
clared that so far as Individual
families are concerned the con
ditions in central Oregon are
worse than in the middle west.
Two Districts
Hard Pi 1 1 m!
"As you know," read Cramb's
letter, "water rights of -a river
are regulated according to pri
ority of tilings. Under conditions
snch as exist this year there was
not sufficient water In the De
schutes river for two districts, the
Arnold, with 3000 seres in cul
tivation, and the Crook county
improvement district Ho. 1, com
monly known as the Lobe Pine
district, with 1SD0 acres in cnltl
ration.
"Both of these districts were
without water for a time, but
through arrangements with the
Pacific Power and Light com
pany, which operates a power
plant at' Bend, and another on
the Deschutes river 10 mites
north of Bend, some water was
secured and temporary relief was
afforded.
"The government could give
permanent relief by acquiring the
rights of the power company to
the water of the Deschutes riv
er and storing the winter, flow in
the Crane Prairie reservoir. This
will hold at the present time
about 45,000 acre feet of water,
and by building up tho dam
could be made to hold 190,000
acre feet. This would provide
sufficient storage for both the
Arnold and the Lone Pine dis
tricts, additional water for the
Tumalo project, and some addi
tional water for the Central Ore
gon' irrigation district which,
though short of water has not as
yet suffered to any extent.
Doesn't Say Farms
Being Abandoned
"We have had hopes that the
national government would auth
orize the building of the Benham
Falls dam to provide sufficient
storage to water the north unit of
the Deschutes project, with a sur
plus for existing districts. Per
haps the other method would b
better, to provide for existing" dis
tricts first and later for the larger
projects.
"Secretary of the Interior Wil
bur has expressed himself as be
ing in favor of providing relief
for existing projects before enter
ing upon an enlarged reclamation
program.
"We believe an emergency ex
ists her that should command
the sympathy and attention of
the national government."
BEND, Ore, Aug. 20 (AP)
It. K. Cramb, secretary of the
Bend chamber of commerce, to
day denied reports several hun
dred eastern and central Oregon
families will absadoa their farms
unless steps ar taken to rolisv
serious drought conditions.
Cramb, however, has sent a tel
egram to President Hoover and
letters to the Oregoa senator aad
representatives asking that steps
be taken to insure more adequate
water supply for irrigation dis
tricts next year.

Exciting Btf Wot to Golden

Quiet, Serious Appearing Local Man Called
Upon Often for Exhibitions of Cool Nerve
By OLTVTS M. DOAK
From ambulance drivbac In

is the record of Virgil T. Golden,
owner ett rb Golden Ambulance

Perhaps ft "would to some one net

an ambulance and seeing all the
ferritlc things that one had to
face during the war, the present
seems qslte usexcttlng."
Despite the fact that t amui
anf atwavs meesas to be in a ter

ra answer to illness rather tnan
accident, aad Mr. Golden finds Ill

than accident calls. Maay of the
latter are for care of transients

learn about the ambulance service
is that it "covers the whole stat

call for Mr. Golden within the past
months was to Klamath raiis
where a patient suffering from a
chronic illness was tans brougnt

amusing things happen and no

instance, a call is sent in and

patient refuses to go. He cannot
be forced to ge ny tne ariver even
though his people want him to be
taken, for to force him "would be
making the- ambulance company
liable for damages If the patient
cared to sue. Again there was the
time a patient was seriously ID
with pneumonia. His wife called
Mr. Golden. But upon arrival the

DIPHTHEI NOTED
A new case of diphtheria de
veloped Wednesday In an adult
at the feeble-minded school, Dr.
Vernon A. Douglas, health offi
cer, reported. While this Is the
second case It is not a serious
one. A child nine years old died
with diphtheria during the last
week at the Institution.
Douglas said cultures were be
ing taken of all inmates but no
carrier patients had as yet been
round. Antitoxin is being given
the Inmates and this will act as a
stop against the spread of th di
sease tor three weeks. Within
that period toxin-antitoxin will
be administered and within a few
months this should check all

Dental Work and Diphtheria
Immunization Increase
Says tlr- Douglas
Indicating the growing inter
est in child health, two things
ar outstanding this year. .
More school children are hav
ing dental work done daring the
summer months in Salem this
year than ever tjefore, according
to Dr. David B. Hill, president
of th Marioa-PoIk-YamhUl Den
tal society. This ststement is
bssed on reports from dentists
in the city ssd from the Marion
county health unit, 434 North
High street.
According to Dr. Vernon A.
Douglas, city-county health offi
cer. 64 children of p re-school age
had been Immunized against
diphtheria in Salem np to August
IS. ta addition to these immun
ised by family physicians. This,
Dr. Douglas says, is the best rec
ord ever mad fa Salem with
children of p re-school age.
Diphtheria, he says, seems to
run la cycles of six years. Bo
far this year, 20 cases of diph
theria have been reported in
Marion county, of which 1? were
from Salem. This is the year for
an increase in diphtheria, unless
parents of school children take
the precaution of having the
children Immunised, either at the
county health unit. 434 North
High or by the family physician
Deaths Marb Below
Figure for 1024
While the report of 39 cases
of diphtheria fro tar this year
may seem high. Dr. Douglas calls
attention to the fact that 265
cases of diphtheria were reported
in Marion county in 192 4. the
year before the Marion county
child health dempnstration began
its five year health program.
During the past two and one
half years, three deaths from
diphtheria have occurred in Sa
lem and all were of pre-school
age. Dr. Douglas reports. And
as this year seems to be the cycle
for an unusual number of diph
theria cases, Dr. Douglas espe
cially urges that children of pre
school age be given the Immun
ization either by the family phy
sician or at 434 North High
street.

Lower Standard Than Year
Ago Uoted; Safety of
Workers Guarded
A check of the sources of
drinking water tn all hop yards
in the wouaty is being completed
this week by Harry Sinks of the
county health service and sinks
is finding -considerable "Class C
water supply..
Water is graded A. B and C
according to the amount of colon
bacfin found.
Dr. Vernon A. Douglas tit the
health unit ays that Class C wa
ter Is not of necessity nnhealthful
although the presence of colon
bactin indicates a -possibility for
other dangerous bacilli being
present. He Is at a loss to know
why water supply this year does
not rate as high generally as In
1020 when 00 yards were In
spected. ' .
Th work, done under the or
ders of the state board of healthy
aims te prevent the possibility of
contagion in the yards.
Wells shoxild be enclosed alt
the surface to prevent possible
contamination, tn Douglas' opin
ion. Surface drainage and sub
surface drainage into the well
bring the colon bacilli Into the
well, Douglas states. Better dis
posal of refuse is urged to pre
vent well contamination.
Where a marked colon bacilli
content is found. .Sinks Is using
chlorine in the well water. Doug
las advises that wherever It is
possible that drilled wells be
used as wells dug a depth of A
few rods are always In daftger of
contamination.
