of S. Koh, manager of the Sumitomo

visit to Japan and the Orient, polnta
out thnt If hla prediction la correct
It will bo In spite of the fact that
Japan wna the first nation to under
go a commercial and financlnl up
heaval as a result of tho war.
"Tho present situation admittedly
is serious," Koh declared. "During
Juno and July, concorn wus folt for
tho stability of soveral largo Japan

covor tholr balance and thore Is a
bright outlook ahead."
Koh daclured thnt tho Flank of

of making loans on ronl eslnto as se
curity a practice which was long
frownod upon In Japan, although

Koh was optimistic as to what the
futuro will bring forth for commer

"While no one can make an accur

"I fool thnt the bottom has been

will got no worse and nt the proper

OREGON PLAN
FINDS FAVOR
EXTENSION OF CREDITS TO IN.
CLUDE IRRIGATION PROJECTS
ENDORSED BY COMMITTEE OF
RECLA.MATION ASSOCIATION,
SALEM, Aug. 26. Returning
from the meeting ot the executive
committee of the Western States Rec
lamation association, held in Boise,
State Engineer Percy A. Cupper re
ports that the proposal of the Ore
gon delegation to the Salt Lake meet
lng ot the association, involving a
request for the extension ot federal
credits to irrigation projects, has
been adopted.
At the Salt Lake meeting the as
sociation, overriding the Oregon dele
gation, decided to ask congress for
a direct appropriation of $250,000
000 for the reclamation of lands in
western states. This plau, experi
ence has proven, did not meet with
the approval of the powers that be
at Washington.
At the Boise conference It was de
cided to ask congress either for a
direct appropriation, or to secure the
extension of government credit as
proposed in the Smith-Fletcher bill
before congress. This measure pro
poses the creation of a revolving
fund and the exchange of irrigation
district bonds for government bonds
the lntter to be sold for development
ot the project and the irrigation dis
trict bonds to be retninod ag
seourlty.
It was also decided to mnke the
reclnmntlon movement nationwide.
Instead ot confining it to the western
reclnmntlon states, thus securing the
cooporntlon of the powerful develop
ment organizations of tho southern
states.
