CLEAN UP THE WILLAMETTE
Sometimes it takes a war to bring about desired reform
and improvement and the present conflict is no exception
to the rule. The particular reform to which attention is now
called is the end of the use of the Willamette river as a sewer
by the city of Corvallis.
You must understand, of course, that the reform has not
already been accomplished. In spite of all that is wrong in
the use of the river for the disposal of sewage and in spite
of laws intended to end such use Corvallis, like most other
communities on the Willamette, has hitherto failed to ar
range other means for handling its sewage problem. Now.
however, another community has been established on the
river down stream from the college town and its officials are
insisting that sewage dumping be stopped. Fortunately, these
officials have both the power and the will to require action.
This iiew community, you will have guessed, is the just
activated Camp Adair which has, or will have, a population
of 30,000. The water supply for Camp Adair conies from
the Willamette and the camp authorities have demanded that
the water be kept clean.
The Corvallis reply, as reported in the news, is that the
camp supply will be quite all right if sufficiently chlorinated.
The military men say that that may be so so far as actual free
dom from disease is concerned but that chlorine never did
make sewage palatable.
A new sewage disposal plant for Corvallis will cost, it is
said, some $300,000. The city, we would argue, should ac
cept the burden cheerfully. It is one of the favored com
munities of Oregon and as such has an obligation to accept
civic responsibilities' and to set a good example for. the rest
of the state. All Oregon contributes to the prosperity of Cor
vallis through support of 0. S. C. and its student body. The
cantonment that forces the river clean-up also offers current
and continuing financial benefits. Except for such difficul
ties as may be created just now by the priorities situation
there would seem to be never a better time to undertake this
in Bend we may view this sewage situation with
special understanding because our own development has been
based on non-use of the Deschutes river for sewer purposes.
It would have been well had city planning in the Willamette
valley followed the same rule. It did not do so and the time
has now come to "repair the damage. As up-river towns act
there will be greater reason for and pressure on Portland
to act, also.
We cannot help thinking that the good new world that is
to be developed after war will not be quite as it should be
unless the Willamette river again attracts the salmon as it
once did and folks can swim in and drink its waters without
fear of disease.

. DISQUIETING REPORTS
Disquieting reports come out of Washington regarding
the way things are being managed. President Roosevelt still
insists on keeping every pair of reins in his own hands. Little
as well as big questions are referred to him and laid away
for later decision. Inter-department quarrels develop and
require settlement by him. Donald Nelson, cheered eight
months ago as the man who would bring order in the war
and production effort, has slipped so far that there is talk
of another unnamed for his jeb while he, himself, realiz
ing the spot he is on, announces that he is going to get tough.
Congress has virtually adjourned though serious problems
call for legislative action. More important to the members
of congress, it is agreed, is their desire for re-election and,
therefore the call to postpone action on these problems until
after November 3.
What form, as the public realizes conditions, will its pro
test take?
A press association correspondent in Britain (not the
United Press that serves The Bulletin) writes of the training
the American commando or ranger troops are getting over
there saying "They have climbed 4000 foot mountains through
forest never before penetrated by man." That, of course,
is just plain eye-wash and creates doubt about everything
else this man writes. You- must get a long way from Britain
before you will find forests of that description. The rangers
are tough babies; no doubt about that, but why try to build
