Prior to the banquet confer ences with state officials were held in which general favor on floor plans was expressed to the architects. . Some suggestions made will be incorporated in the final drafts. Court Street Is Seven Feet Higher Keally, with. newspapermen and several state offlciols, viewed the grounds from every angle. Vis iting the site proposed by the gov ernor, Keally stated "it is certain ly beautiful and Governor Martin should be complimented for his vision. However I believe he is about 100 years too early for practical use of Candalarla Heights.- ' Another point Keally stated, a fact unknown to many Salem res idents, is that Court street is sev en feet higher than State street, one block distant. Three outstanding decisions re sulted from the conference be tween' architects and the state board of control. These were: . . Use of Oregon materials as far as practical. Immediate preparation of plans so as to avoid unnecessary con struction delays, i General - approval of the floor plans for state! departments to be housed in the new structure. . Use of Oregon materials was suggested by j Governor Martin who referred particularly to mar ble and granite quarried near Ashland. - Keally promised that the product ; of this and other Oregon quarries would be investi gated, f Peetoffice Should Conform, Asserted . Construction of the new federal peetoffice here also was discus sed. v Keally said that pressure should be brought upon federal officials to the end that the new posteffice structure would con form to the architecture of the eapitol building. - - Excavation for the eapitol probably will begin months in ad vance of other construction oper ations, Keally said.

En rollment in schools and colleges has grown during that time from 200,000 to 1,500.000. he said. He pointed out that children must hare equal chance for education wherever they may be. "Prohibition,", he said, "was thought , to be the solution of a grave problem. Prohibition col lapsed. Our young people are fac ing the greatest - political mess known to history." He called attention to the gro tesque futility of the great war in which nations sowed the dragon- teeth of another conflict."

Looking toward the future h made some interesting predictions which included the suggestions that cheaper transportation is coming with a return to the soil, using some combination in which men will draw wages in factories one-half of each year, and produce foodstuffs the other half. There will be a complete development of power, he said. Higher standards of living, undreamed of conven iences, better medical care for the sick were predicted. Development of total water power, utilization of coal and gas to a new expansion, programs of conservation: new forest areas, abundant wild life and game in restored resources, stock ranges, and water utiliza tion were anticipated.
