WASHINGTON, Sept, 20 U.R
Chairman Martin Dies. D.. Tex.,
of the house un-American investi
gating committee, said tonight
that President Roosevelt has asked
him to defer a full dress invest!'
gation of Japanese espionage on
the West coast and that he-would
comply.
Presumably the request was
made because the inquiry might
affect adversely the progress of
Japanese - American diplomatic
conversations. Dies said. The
chairman said that the committee
would "defer to the administra
tion's wishes."
Dies said that the inquiry
would have revealed many sen
sational facts and one committee
member described the potential
.Taanese esDionaee organization in
America as "greater tnan tne
Germans ever dreamed of having
in the low countries." He said
that it would be a "tremendous
force to reckon with in event of
war."
This committee member said
that the situation m the ban
lrrandsco area was "critical," with
the Mare Island navy yard and
manv industrial estaousnmenK.
grouped in a relatively small area
which would be sabotaged effec
tively.
The committee agents, uies
said, have been working on tne
West coast for many months and
they have lined up witnesses
ready to testify that:
1. Officials of ' the Japanese
government have developed plans
in the. Japanese consular offices
in Hawaii to spread yellow fever
among the islands and the U.
garrison there In event oi war
with the United States..
2. A Japanese fishing fleet oi
some 600 boats Is stationed off the
California coast; manned by Jap
anese naval reserve officers, and
carrying equipment which could
convert the ships immediately
into minelayers.
3. The Tokyo government main
tains a closely-knit organization
to check up on the activities oi
Japanese in this country and keep
them in line for possible use as
espionage and sabotage agents.
4. Sabotage has been committed
by Japanese agents against indus
trial plants on the west coast.
Dies said .that groundWorK iot
the investigation- was laid long
before this government and Japan
began exploratory conversations
seeking to adjust differences oe-
tween the two nations.
crop. They are picked by hand,
then dried indoors and baled for
shipment Maltzan says one of his
difficulties is in obtaining equip
ment to bale the crop.
Many farmers have had a sage
hush nr two growing for their
own use, but Maltzan s planting
believed to be the largest in
the country.
A few other, farmers In the
northwest have conducted some
experiments with the herb. Last
year an eastern uregon larmer
near SummerviUe in Union county
slanted an acre of shrubs. Some
experimenting nas also Deen uon
by a Washington man, according
to Maltzan. ..
Saee hushes are usually set out
from slips. The small shrub-like
plant is a perennial. Some bushes
have produced leaves as long as
78 years, the Lane county ex
perimenter said.
He expects that an acre of ma
ture plants may produce as much
as a tori an acre. During the first
few years-at least two or three
hundred pounds per acre can be
obtained.
The climate in the .Willamette
valley is ideal for raising the herb,
Maltzan says. He also is attempt
ing to develop fertilizers which
will increase the productivity of
the herb. , -

Natural History Society
Organized by Eugene Group
The Natural History Society of
Eugene was organized last eve
ning at the home of Mrs. O. R.
Gullion. The object of the society
is to hold field trips and lectures
for those interested, particularly
in geology, ornithology and bot
any. Later other branches of
natural history will be included
as the demand arises.
This society is a result of a long
standing dream of Dr. Warren D.
Smith, head of the geology de
partment at the University of Ore
gon. He told the group, at the
meeting last evening, that through
out the whole of the United
States such organizations were be
ing formed by amateurs who en
joyed the outdoors, and pointed
out that Oregon and the vicinity
of Eugene, in particular, hail more
to offer in the study of natural
history than any other place in
the United States.
Such groups gathering through
out the country not only provide a
great deal of enjoyment for the
indoor workers, but are assisting
in research problems.'he said. This
is particularly true In ornithology
where bird banding and bird
fcensut, arc being taken.
Gordon Gullion told the group
of the aims of the Audabon So-
ciety of which he is an active
member, and Miss Ruth Hopson
spoke of her study of orinthology
at Cornell university during the
oast two years.
The society proposes to hold Its
first lecture meeting on Friday,
September 28, at Condon hall. It
is hoped to have one lecture meet
ing each month at which time an
outstanding authority, either local
or from a distance, will be brought
here to speak on a subject of in
terest. Field trips will be held
frequently the first one on Sun
day, October 5. These trips will be
under the guidance of experts in
their branch of natural history,
but the President-elect, Dr. Milton
V. Walker wishes to emphasize the
fact that this society has been or
ganized by and for the amateur
who enjoys field trips accom
panied by someone who is an
authority.
Mrs. Helen K. Kllpatrick was
chosen secretary of the society,
Mrs. Ruth Onthank and Miss Ruth
Hopson were chosen as eo-cnair
men of tne program committee.
