CHANGES GOOD FOR
PROJECT SAYS DODO
There is a good chance for tho Mc-
Kay reservoir project In the Mondell
bill, If it passes congress, and there
will be a good chance for tho reser
voir in another bill to provide money
for completing existing irrigation pro
jects that will be presented In the
event the Mondell bill does not pass.
This la the view of K. P. Dodd, who
returned tn HcnniatoK Saturday aftcTI
a month spent In Wrushington In be
half of the project. Mr. Dodd's chief
work consisted in raking reports on
tho project out of pigeon holes and
getting consideration for them. He
feels that he accomplished consider

be taken up, sooner or later.

PORTLAND, Or., July 21. United
Press. Portland's big fight to win
from Seattle the business of the In
land empire opened here today before
three members of tho interstate com
cere commission.
Tho commissioners heard evidence!
iu the Columbia basin rate ease,
ivhich. If decided cut Portland desires,
would result In a precedent which
would cause readjustment of rates the
country over.
The commission la asked to grant
a lower freight rate by way of the
water grade between the Inland Em
pire and ports of the Columbia than
by way of the mountains between the
Inland Empire and Puget Sound
ports.
Tho hearing Mill be transferred to
Seattle July 28. and will continue
there for probably four days.
IA11 Puget sound .ports are with Sc-
rattle Tn this case. Just as ell folum--
bla ports are with Portland. Those
advocating the lower rate for tho wa
ter lino have sought backing from tho
big grain growers of tho empire on
the grounds that lower rates would
mean more money to the producer.
Puget Sound interests have countered
with tho reply that rates to Portland
would not be lowered that rates to
Puget Sound merely would bo raised.

The one big contention of the Co

of mountain transportation Is great

downward slope to tho mouth of the
