Man Who Shot Sea
Lion Threatened
Postal Inspectors Check
on Writer of Letter;
Finegan at Sea
PORTLAND, Feb. 26.-(iP)-Rep-ercussions
of "Mrs. Finegan's"
visit to inland Oregon came today
in the form of a threatening let
ter. "Mrs. Finegan" is the belliger
ent sea-lion who was found in a
grain field near Canby and taken
back to the Pacific ocean at
Nelscott.
Letter Sent to
Houseboat man
The letter, typewritten, was re
ceived by Herbert Douthit, Ore
gon City fisherman who was so
frightened by the sea-lion's pres
ence on a float near his house
boat that be let loose a shotgun
charge which somewhat damaged
"Mrs. Finegan's" left eye.
Postal inspectors took finger
prints from the letter. It was
signed "Ben Raleigh" and said,
in part, "If I ever meet I'll han
dle you, and how." It also com
mented, "The world is too full
of killers."
State police said "Mrs. Fine
gan" appeared glad to reach the
seashore last night.
They said she lunged through
ropes criss-crossed to close the
back end of the truck, slashed
savagely with her teeth only a
few inches from F. O. Haldeman
of the geodetic survey, lunged
at a nearby dog, rolled over and
over In tbe loose sand and fi
nally lumbered into the surf.
"There ain't gonna be no extra
session," he declared.
First to act was Postmaster
Lou Livingston who announced to
day he was impounding letters ad
dressed to Harrison and Hamilton
pending a ruling from Washing
ton. Guardsmen In "Civies"
Eject Two Officials
The two officials were forcibly
ejected Monday from their offi
ces by national guardsmen elad
in civilian attire upon order of
Talmadge. after their refusal to
countersign a $139,000 warrant.
J. B. "Tobe" Daniel, de faeto
treasurer appointed to replace
Hamilton, was turned down when
he appeared to cash a $100,000
check at the Fulton National
bank, a state depository. He went
to the bank accompanied by two
multi-clad national guardsmen.
These developments were fol

attorney general that he had

Santiam Water
Claims Exceed
Stream's Flow
Present Users May Take
Rights to Court if
Salem Steps In
City May Divert Share of
Mill Ditch Water for
Domestic Use
Claims upon water rights in
the North Santiam river above
Stayton greatly exceed the dry
season flow of the stream, figures
obtained Wednesday at the state
engineer's office revealed in con
nection with the question as to
whether Salem could obtain water
there for a municipal supply, and
whether it would be necessary for
the city to pay a considerable sum
to A. D. Gardner, sr., undisputed
owner of a major share of these
rights.
Salem already has rights in the
Santiam above Stayton to water
sufficient for its municipal sup
ply, it was di&covered, but wheth
er these rights could be translat
ed from power to municipal sup
ply rights with intake at a dif
ferent point, remains to be es
tablished. Question of Rights
Found Involved
The question of water rights
anoTlaws pertaining thereto is an
involved one, particularly in the
case of a stream such as the
North Santiam which has never
been adjudicated, but several
facts stand out clearly:
1. Salem undoubtedly can es
tablish a "preferred" claim to
Santiam water if it desires to ob
tain it for a municipal supply.
2. If Salem files such a claim,
any one of the present users of
Santiam water for power, irrigat
tion and other purposes may con
test It by making a showing that
the user will be injured. This
probably would make adjudication
necessary; and Salem could obtain
the rights by Daying the injured

Seed Loans' Veto
Stirs Revolt Talk
Robinson Advises Against
Move to Override;
Author Objects
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26. - UF-
A threat of a revolt in the sen
ate over President Roosevelt's
veto of the $50,000,000 seed loan
bill today brought a speech from
Majority Leader Robinson advis
ing against efforts toward re-
enactment.
Doesn't Jibe With
F. R.'s Program
The executive declined to sign
the measure with an explanation
his financial program had not
taken it into consideration, and
that congress had failed to pro
vide revenue for the additional
drain on the treasury.
On Mr. Roosevelt's assurance,
however, that he would order a
transfer of work relief funds to
aid farmers still in distress from
"unforeseen disasters," Robinson,
who had hoped for presidential
approval, advised against further
action1.
But the bill's author, Chairman
Smith (D-SC) of the agriculture
committee, said he would insist,
nevertheless, on a vote to over
ride because "tbe need for the
money today is as great as it was
in the past."
Robinson's speech generally
was regarded as killing -any chan
ces for passage over the veto.

officialdom expressed two fears
today over possible results of the
military coup in Tokyo Japan
ese war with Russia and a renew
ed drive against China.
Authoritative observers felt the
Japanese military revolt was in
spired by three developments:
Lack of Action in
Border Dispute Cited
1. Lack of more forceful action
by the Japanese government in
Manchoukuoan-Mongolian border
disputes.
2. The sudden unexplained halt
of Japanese penetration in North
China last November.
3. Dismissal of Gen. Jinzaburo
Mazaki, former inspector general
of the military education depart

Melson Proposes Use of Old
federal Camp as Play Park
A six-acre park for the use of
boys and girls of Marion county
and their parents is proposed
by County Commissioner Roy Mel
son from the transient camp mid
way between Mehama . and Mill
City.
This camp, soon to be aban
doned by the United States gov
ernment. Is located on land be
longing to Marion county. Since
the camp was aet up there two
years ago an excellent recreation
ball has been built, along with
cook and bunkhouses.
Underbrush has been cleared
away and a considerable amount
"of rock work done. Hundreds of
flowers and shrubs have been
planted.
Suggests Impartial ' "
Board to Administer
, Melson 's Idea would be for the
county to name an impartial, non
partisan Tbard which should ad
minister the park as a recreation
center for the youngsters of the
ccnaty. The six acres overlook the
Santiam with its fine facilities for
swimming and fishing. Through
the acreage runs a pleasant creek.

passenger coach which a roaring avalanche swept from the

Last week Gould's proposals

The commission today also vot
ed to withdraw from the rules of

The commission thinks it would
be unfortunate if the beautitlca
tion of the six-acre tract begun
by the federal government, would
go to waste. Whatever board'was
put in charge of the acreage
should arrange for a caretaker for
at least a portion of the year, Mel
son opines. He would like to have
suggestions from community or

istrative body to handle the park
The county could not afford to
give the park. In trust, to any one
