Established 1907 " 7 7 WATER GONTORVERSV IS NOT YET CLOSED All is not yet smooth with the wa ter users of the East fide Ditch Co ot MIlton-FTeewater, according to County Watermaster A. B. Perry. A delegation of farmers served by the ditch, accompanied by W. W. Roe. der. district wa'er master there, came to Pendleton this afternoon on a mis sion not learned, . . The controversy over the reguUv tlon of water to users of the system Is not yet closed, according to Mr. Perrv. The fight opened when Roeder cut off the supp:y that is sup nosed to sunn!.- J. D. McCoy and farmers below his place and result ed In contempt of court proceedings being started against Roeder. Be fore the case came up for hearing In circuit court here, however. Roe. der promised to regulate the weirs o thut McCoy would get water, as guaranteed him by a state supreme court decision. . . . Mr. Perry and an engineer from the state engineer's department at Salem visited the ditch yesterday and found that neither the order of the court nor orders from Mr. Perry had been obeyed by Roeder. Water Is going Into the ditch which supplies McCoy but ta not reaching his place, Mr. Perry says. It Is presumed that the delegation which came down this afternoon will confer with the county court regard ing the water question. The low stage of the river there has worked a hardship on all concerned and Im proper aportlonment of water to any group of users would work a hard ship on others. Mr. Perry will prob ably make another trip to tne scene of the conutri.versy tomorrow and cut In the weirs so that distribution will be more equitable. been doing my best not to learn any thing about it until I get there. ' I have heard that it had 400,000.000 people, and I have taken It for grant ed that they all run laundries. I sup pose I was selected for ths Job be cause they couldn't think of anyone else who would have so little to un learn." ., "Do you feel confident," he was asked, "that you can actually get the Chinese way of looking at things across to American readers?" "I don't know," he said. "I don'l know whether there Is any Chinese way of looking at things. Maybe the Chinese people are human. Maybe they love and hate and aspire like other human beings. Maybe they have human differences and human tradl. tlons and human prejudices. It Is pos sible that they live on the same planet that Americana have been customarily Inhabiting and that their problems turn out to he our problems too." Will Ask Thm "I am most anxious to learn." h added, "what the people of all these countries want, and I don't know of any better way of finding out than to ask them. Moat Americana that I have met seem to go on the assumption that we have certain advantages here which the people of the orient ao not possess. If that la true, we have a wonderful opportunity to he of service to them. I am not a missionary. I am not a churchman. .

Ratra Jeopardize Wool Trade "Portland's prospect for becoming a . great woolen manufacturing center is being jeopardised by the proposed change in rates." declares it. r. Stanfield. former speaker of the house, who is the leading sheepman of the west. "Portland la now the second largest wool center In the United States. The concentration of raw material la the first essental to ward the upbuilding of textile Indus tries. The mills muat have available a depot of material from which se lections can be made. Without the opportunity to make selection the manufacturer is handicapped. It has been my belief that the future Port land would be a great woolen manu facturing center, tor the raw mate rial is shipped here and the water and climatic conditions are Ideal. If, however, the freight rates are such as to force the wool to the Atlantic coast Instead of coming naturally to Portland this prospective industry will be lost." Mr. Stanfield Is In Portland on the rate matter, as he Is materially affected by It. Orcgo nian. ... on vt v nr. tst. nitieiv N R. Am. J.

Wood, a New Tork newspaper man Is scheduled to sail today on the "Em press of Russia" on one of the most remarkable assignments since Jason set out to find the Golden Fleece. "Visit every country on earth and find out what the people want." Thla commission was given Wood by the Centenary Committee of the Methodist Episcopal Church. It may take him 20 years. It probably will. Wood was on the Sunday editorial staff of the New. Tork World when given his sailing order. Twelve years ago, at 27 he was a locomotive fire man and began his newspaper career as a cub reporter on the Syracuse Journal in 1909. His wartime Inter views in the New Tork World were later put together In a book "The Great Change." Wood's first stop on his trip will be at Shanghai, China. From there he will go up the Tang Tse Kiang river to Interior China. His mission Is not merely to "write up the missions," but ito Interpret the needs of each country 'as expressed by its leaders In every ! walk of life. No Guide, Tio Schedule j "I don't know where I'm going to but I'm on my way," is literally true 'of Wood. We has never been In any 'foreign country before and speaks no language except English. He has no guide, no schedule and no definite or Iders. He is accompained only by his j wlf. who Is equally unacquainted with foreign lands. Their Immediate des tination, however. Is Cheng-Tu In Western China, which Is about ns thor oughly . foreign a city as any white folks ever visit. There, rather than In the cities familiar to American tourists.
