jAir Commerce Bulletin Says
Willamette Portion of
Airway is Ideal
'Thls portion of the airway Ilea
la the famous Willamette valley
and the terrain la low and gen
rally flat," reads the report la
recent Air Commerce bulletin
Issued by the United States gov
ernment. The article concerns the
completion of the San Francisco
Seattle airway providing 24-hour
facilities between Los Angeles
and Seattle.
"No particular problems were
Involved in laying oat the airway
between Eugene and Seattle," the
report continues. "The airway
runs in a straight line slight east
f North, from Eugene to Swan
Island airport at Portland. wUa
Intermediate fields located at
Brownsville and SUverton and
with airports available at Albany
and Salem.
"Many landing fields are avail
able daring the drier portions of
the rear. The chief problem in
preparing the Intermediate land
tar fields In this section has been
te aeenre adequate draining and
a. good sod coverage to prevent
dangerous softening of tho fields
taring the rainy season.
The article describes in detail
the emergency landing fields se
cured between San Francisco and
Portland and includes a statement
concerning the erection of air
beacons.
"Many of the beacon altes be
tween. Redding. Calif., and Eu-
gfue were extremely difficult to
loeateVhd to reach with construc
tion materials." the report reads.
The topographic .mapj from
which the field representatives
worked were none too accurate,
lue to the extremely broken na
ture of the country. All of this
area was densely covered with
timber, often exceeding 100 feet
In height, which made it impos
sible to determine the relative
height of the surroundings from
the ground."

able daily up and down the coast,
the mail south being .closed hero
at 3 p. m. It then goes tp Port

Civil Service
Faker Is Said
. Working Salem
Civil service officials and police
officials have been notified to
watch out for men fakers' who
are representing themselves to be
agents of the United States Civil
Service Commission with federal
jobs to be given out through their
assistance.
One such man has apparently
been operating in Salem recently,
a woman reported to Civil Service
officials at the postoffice that a
man with the story of civil service
jobs approached her and sought
a fee.
The man or men are working
all over the country, and accord
ing to the government office, the
scheme they work is to promise
federal jobs with entering salary
of 1,900 for each person who
pays a 50 fee. No description of
the man or men is given.
No one, of course, ean guaran
tee a federal job in this manner.

Were you ever coated with a
stlckr chocolate substance and
then thrown Into a tank of wat
er?- Or perhaps you were lather
ed with a broom and shaved with
a huge wooden razor before your
unexpected bath. If you ever
crossed tne equator on a moaern
steamship, you hare experienced
one of these sensations.
Dean Roy. Hewitt of Willam
ette college of law told of his ex
periences when crossing tne
"line" last summer at chapel, re
cently. It was on his tour
plaint to recover goods or money
against N. and Medora Wood
ry. Removal of the goods was made
by Medora Woodry, the complaint
sets out. Martin says he demand
ed Tetnrn of the goods without
avail. He aslu return of the
goods, consisting largely of
breakfast tables and chairs and
bed. and springs, or judgment of
1100 for value of the goods. He
also asks f 100 damages'and costs.

is bo doubt. The first concern
of such reorganization should be
to 'conserve -the interests of the
large number of stockholders
who paid in their money that
the mill might be built.- They
deserve to be protected, so that
their Investments, when the con
cern is finally put on a paying
basis, may share in the profits,
and their stock be good for Its
face.

South America.
When a ship crosses the equa
tor. King Neptune comes aboard
with a number of his courtiers
and Initiates the neophytes who
have never keen there before. He
is dressed in bis traditional fash
ion with long whiskers, sea weed
in his hair, and that instrument
resembling a pitchfork grasped
in his hand. -
If you are a man, you are
shaved; if you are a woman, you
get the chocolate, in your hair.
Then the bath. In the meantime,
if Old Man Neptune so desires it,
you have your bathing suit filled
with ice. Then, you can go clean
up and watch the rest of the par
ty take their initiation. You have
then earned a diploma which
King Neptune's herald presents
you the next day.
Eating two-inch bananas in
the Canal Zone, spoiled Dean
Hewitt for the kind we get here.
The small ones "just mek in
your mouth." Colon and Panama,
the two entrance cities to the
canal, are quite interesting,
pointed out the speaker.
In order to go from east to
west (from the Atlantic te the
Pacific), one's ship goes from
west to east. The canal on the
Atlantic side Is northwest of the
exit on the Pacifie slope.
One of the disappointments of
his trip, claimed Dean Hewitt,
was missing the. sight of, the
Christ of the Andes because' of its
being covered with snow. ' The
statue and pedestal are over 60
feet high. Mr. Hewitt's tour was
made during- July and August
which Is winter south of the trop
ics.
