BULLETIN GETS
FIRST NEWS OF
OUTSIDEWORLD
Willi all or tho usual lines of com
munication cut as a result of the
worst storm which has ever been ex
perienced In the northwest, Central
Oregon's first news of the outer
world for three days reached The
It ii liut I ii lust night from United Press
headquarters In Portland. Three brief
stories, covering the most essential
features III the world's news, trickled
In over little used telephone lines
through the spursely settled country
to the south.
The messages reached Silver Lake
in the form of telegrams, and were
repeated from there to The Bulletin
over a wire through Mlllican.
Almost every word had to be repeat
ed several times, and many had to be
spelled out. Thus, with the aid of the
Mlllican operator, the messages be
came Intelligible. Over 30 minutes
time was consumed In getting the
news from Silver Lake. It was five
hours In coming from Portland.
With the opening of this news av
enue, further reports are expected
.from duy to day until the regular
channels are opened. Monday and
Tuesday of this week are the only
duys since The Daily Bulletin began
publication that world news has not
been received, excepting one day fol
lowing the heavy snow of 1919.

department, 13.671,990 fry have
been plnnted or are on hand, more
than tho total planted In the two pre
vious years. As a feature of the year's
work, a large part of which has been
carried on from the Tumalo hatch
ery. It has been made the practice
to plant larger fish than heretofore,
in this manner reducing the percent
age of loss.
In place of the five hntcheries
which represented the equipment
available at the beginning of the
present year, 13 or 14 will be In use
next your. Although some of those

PORTLAND, Nov. 22. (Delayed in transmission
Following the worst storm that ever struck the Colum
bia and Willamette valleys Portland is struggling today
with a river in raging flood. Never, in the memory of any
now living nor in local weather history, has any such
storm been experienced here. .
Both the Santiam and Willamette rivers rose beyond
their banks following the heavy rain and highways, rail
ways railroad tracks, telephone and telegraph lines out
of Portland have been damaged to an amount in excess
of one million dollars. '
Although there have been many narrow escapes no
loss of life has so far been reported.
Seven trains are snow bound in the Columbia gorge
They will probably be relieved tonight. A few passengers
have been removed on river boats.
Conference Approves Agreement
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22. (Delayed in transmission,)
The conference on the limitation of armaments called
by President Harding today approved an agreement for
two major tasks, the limitation of naval armament and
the untangling of the intricacies of the Far East problem.
As a means of settling the international dispute in
that quarter the United States will probably force an
agreement on the open door policy in the Far East.
Germany, through Edmund Shermann her new
charge d' affaires, has denied the charges made by Pre
mier Briand of France that Germany is a great potential
war machine. Shermann has further stated that Germany
is willing to make guarantees that will assure the safety
of France and also world peace. ,
