production of iteme or classifications
of lumber and timber products.
"Such minimum prices," the code
says, "shall be established with due
regard to the maintenance of free
competition among speclea, divisions
and subdivisions and with tha .prod
ucts ot other Industries and other
countries and to the encouragement
of the uaa of said producta: and ex

more than cost of production deter
mined aa provided In this section nor
less than such cost of production al
ter deducting the capital charges
apeelfied."
In arriving at minimum prlcea a
prescribed list of accounting prac
tices Is set up for the authority, which
also la directed to "establish equit
able price differentials for producta
below accepted atandarda of quality
aa prescribed by the authority auch
aa the products of some small mills."
. The coda adds:
Minimum Wages Oovera
"No peraon ahall sell or offer for

The coda aaya minimum tatee for

Tiering Down tha Mountain
Trace left by the torrent indicate
that in tha narrower passes of the
gorge, It waa a living wall of water,
at least forty feet wide and forty
feet high, and it moved with the speed
of a race horse.
Two milea from tha point where it
burst from the glacier, in tha wide
reachea of Benarst on meadows, it
was Btlll a raging torrent 10 or 12.
feet high and 100 to MO feet wide.
There it began dropping Ha heavy
bouldere and picking up tone of the
soft red silt from the meadows.
Red Flood la Explained
This Is why on last Sunday morn
ing the waters of the McKenile river
from the mouth of Horse creek (near
McKenile Bridge 60 mllea from Ku-
gene) on down turned red to the
amasement and chagrin of camperss
and fishermen.
Repsratlon creek empties Into
Horse ereek and Horse creek Into
the McKensle. It waa several days
before the waters of these atresias
regained their usual clearness. Mean
time everybody speculated. Telephone
linea to tha lookouta of tha Willam
ette forest were kept busy.
Arthur. Belknan who haa lived all
his life on the McKensia said that
neither ha nor hla father nor his
grandfather had ever aeen a like phe
nomenon. Smith - Taylor, veteran
ranger, who haa given the river a
lifetime of study was mystified.
Rook Slides Follow Flood
First reports from Obsidians and
other mountain climbers In the reg
ion and from forest lookouta told of
tremendous noises aa of avalanchea on
the South Sister. Glasses trained
on tha mountain by lookouts revealed
much dust z from continuing rock
slides. '
An f.irplane reconnaisanca under
the atispieea ot The Oregonlen on
Wedresday gave partial confirmation
to the tbeqry that a glacial dam had
broken. Meantime, ' the exploring
party was on its way In and on Thurs
day it located the trouble definitely.
The roaring noises are explained
by the torrent unleashed on the
mountainside.
The continuing dust whirls are
from rock slides whir followed and
ara still .following the water'a da
structlon, ,
The locution ia not Lost Creek
glacier, aa at first reported, but
Skinner glacier which lies somewhat
north of northeast and higher up the
mountain.
Evidence la Everywhere
Approaching from- the south by
way of the Wickiup plains, the party
nit Repartition creek above the Sk.V'
line trail and from there on the evi
dence was unmistakable.
A torrent much greater than any
ordinary overflow or mud slide"
from a glacier had raged through the
valley. A flood comparable to that
when the St. Francis dam broke in
California or to the cloudburst some
years ago In the upper Umatilla val
ley had been turned loose somewhere.
Glacier Ravaala Seoret
An hour or so of climbing brought
tne party to the foot of Skinner gla
cler and there the whole story was
revealed. -
Skinner glacier lies against' the
side of the South Sister in two great
masses connected (till last Saturday)
by .a' narrow passage of ice from the
upper to the lower section more or
less like a figure "8" with the upper
and lower lohes slightly cockeyed.
Here's Your lee. Lady
In the lateral moraine at the point
of this connecting aection waa
great rent The pnrty, toiling up the
margins of the gulch made by the
flood, looked up toward vast chunks
of broken glacial Ice, some of them
as big aa good-sied cottages which
were tumbled like cocked dice In the
aperture. ,
For anfety'a sake, the party took a
lg-sng upward across the lower
lobe of the glneler and on reaching
the easterly aide of thla field they
found another (somewhat smaller)
gulch where water had poured down
from the break at the narrows, and
toward the Chambera lakes In. the
draw between South and Middle.
Larre Area Cleaned Out
On reaching the point of the break,
they found an unuaual scene. Just
above the break, an area perhaps 15
or ?o acrea in extent had been swept
almost bare of glacier. Beyond thla
lay atlll another and somewhat higher
aection of what had been glnrier.
A muddy lake lay In thla aection,
hut a sun-glacial wall had been ex
posed and a deep vertical cut In -this
snb-glnclal wall told how waters Im

rest. It waa virtually an "axplc
Slon."
In all probability, It was thla rush
of water which swept away the ice
which bad once covered the acrea
laid1 bare. The remaining Ice, higher
up the mountain, dropped down like
an old barn roof when the props are
removed. A climb along the sur
rounding ridges strengthened these
Impressions.
Dotson cats tna snivers
Mr. Dotson did a little plain and
fancy ahuddering when It all became
clear. On the Friday, the day be
fore the .flood, be led a party of Ob
sidians to the top of South Sister,
going up across Lost Creek glacier.
On Friday evening, Dotson and bia
party camped on tha banks of Sep
aration creek directly in the path ot
the flood.
It would have been "curtains" for
any party camped there on Saturday.
Dr. Eilwln T. Hodge, geologist at
tha State College, waa consulted on
the return of the party and he con
firmed their opiniona tea to what
happened.
Dr. 1 lodge ts tne recognised au
thority on the Three Sistera area.
In 1028, under the auspices ot the
University of Oregon be surveyed the
entire region and wrote a . text
Mount Multnomah, Ancient Ances
tor of the Three Sistera." He made
special study of the gladera on
the peaks and gave aome of them
the names tbey now bear. . .
Hodge Gives Hla Opinion ,, .
Looking over the picturea the
party brought hack, he .aaid: ,
Thla waa - no .ordinary glacial
break but something which might oc
cur maybe once in 50 years. It ia
the first rocord of such 4 bresk In
this region but there have been auch
occurrences In the Alpa and some of
them have been attended by severe
loss of lite and property in Alpine
villages. It. ia an extremely interest
ing phenomenon.
"Skinner glacier, however, Is more
susceptible to such a break than any
ot the other glaciers. It Ilea high
np on the extreme northwest face
of the mountain which is in Itself an
unusual position for a glacier in this
country.1
"It is more exposed to weathering
than the other glaciers. It catches
not only a great deal of hot after
noon aun but a good deal of heat
earlier in the day by reflection from
the neighboring Middle Sister., It
does not gat as much anow in winter
and it ia not as massive as some of
the more favored glaciers."
End of Glacier? Nol
Members of the exploring party
were ot the opinion that they had
witnessed the beginning of the end
of a great glacier. They figured that
with the wide drainage the flood has
opened, it will be, only k matter of
time till the rest Of the glacier
washes away.
Not so," says Dr. Hodge. "It
depends a good deal on the weather
the next few winters and Bummers.
The BUU haa won thla rouml In its
battle with this glacier! but glaciers
are very tenacious. Given heavy
snow the next few winters end some
normally cool sumpierH and Skinner
glacier may he aa "good as ever'."
Drainage stopped up
ur. Hotlge believes this year s
break was produced by a stoppuge
in the normal outlets under the ala-
cier, - Laat .winter brought an un
usual amount of snow and cold. This
may have caused a clogghig of the
norma) outlets or thev mav have
ocen stopped by debria or ice.
Tha unusually prolonged hot anell
thla summer, following the heavy
snows, caused a tremendous volume
of water to be poured Into the gla
cier's "reservoirs." It hod to find
release.
"It was the St. Francis dam story
In a more fortunate setting," said
Dr. Hodge. "Glaciers as well as
men build dams without sufficient at
tcntion to geologic foundation."
However, Dr. Hodge thinks there
la little chnnce of other breaks on
Oregon glaciers, In the near future.
Estimates 30 Million Feet
Judging by. the area drained and
exposed, Dr. Hodge estimates the
volume of the flood at SO million
cubic feet (225 . million gnllons) as
"a conservative guess." Ho says It
would be almost impossible to figure
tne volume of the flood closely.
A storage of 30 million cubic feet
would be more then enough to care
for all. of Portlands water supply
ror live clays, it would cover K
gene' water usage for 50 days. Av
erage use In American cltlea (Indus
tries and homes) la ISO gallona per
capita per day. , .
Dr. Hodge thinks there mav have
been even grenter volume to the
flood and points out that the glacier
hsd probably been floating for some
time and, was honeycombed with rot
ten ice. - .
Anyhow, there Is plenty of evi
denee that It was a real flood
The timing of the break can be
fixed fairly accurately by the known
timing of tha discoloration in the
AIcKensie.
Mrs. Sparks Gives Clua
Mrs. Rose Sparks, who runs a fa
moils eating place on the McKenaie
near Blue Iliver, gave the most .ac
curate clue on the-timing. . .
"One of 6nr-" camners." said Mm.
Sparks, "went down to the river last
Sunday morning just at 8 and drew
a bucket of water and It wns just
as clear as usual. At 6:30 ahe
needed another bucket of water and
went back to the river. In the in
terval, the entire river had turned
brick-red. She then came up here
to get what water she needed and

that's how wa first heard about tha
trouble."
It Is 60 mllea from South Sister
to Blue Hiver. Although the flood
may hava atarted with an Initial ve
locity of 20 to 40 miles an hour, an
average speed oi not more innu -s
miles an hour 'must be accepted due
to the spreading out in fists and
curvature in creeks.
Thus the break was at least is
houra prior to 0:30 Sunday when
Mrs. Sparks' camper got her firat
bucket of "red." , ,
Smith Taylor and tha rangers at
McKenile Bridge noticed tha discol
oration at about duybreak, There
was no way to set an accurate gauge
on the rise in the McKensie or Horse
creek, but Mr, Taylor la of the opin
ion that there was a substantial rise.
Many Freakish Occurrences
There were many freakish drcum-
atancea' In the flood. Although the
waters ot the upper McKensle were
clear (and fishermen happy) by Mon
day evening, J. W. McArthur, super
intendent of the Eugene water sup
ply, says he Is atlll filtering lava
dust out of whst Eugene drinks.
The more that stuff is diluted,"
soya McArthur, "the more it becomes
like paint or dye."
Eugene Obsidians are planning to
keep a close photographic check on
future developments in Skinner (la
cier, gnd they are also planning to
act,, markers on the huge Collier gla
cier I North Sister) for a atudy of
glacial movement. -
One party ia to explore the "ruins"
of Skinner glacier this week-end, al
though In the opinion of the first
visitors to the "scene of the crime,"
It is still decidedly unsafe.
Mr. Dotson, alwaye eager for con
trasts in his pictures, urged one
member of big party to atand under
one of the enormous blocks ox Ice
in the month of the break. The com
panion cost an eye on a fresh slide
just starting above.
"No, air," said he. "I'd hate to
have my kida saying: 'How thin poor
