Bend Population
Now 15,943?
Bend's population as of Janu
ary 1, 1950, was 15,943 if Port
land's population at present is
434,614. Both estimates were
reached on the basis of water
connections.
The estimate of Portland popu
lation as of March 1 appeared in
the Oregonian this morning. The
estimate was made by Commis
sioner Fred L. Peterson of that
city, who said engineers estimate
water users for each connection
at 4.38 persons. The Portland wa.
ter bureau listed 99,227 active
connections.
Bend on January 1 of the pres
ent year listed 3663 active con
nections, with 140 of these Just
outside the city limits. Using
the Portland ratio of 4.3S, the
15,944 figure was reached.
"Bit Strong," Believed
However, Bend city officials are
inclined to think the 4.38 base is
a "bit strong," and believe that
the 1950 census will yield figures
for both Portland and Bend well
below the estimates.
Percy Drost, water department
superintendent here. Is more in
clined to favor about 3.50 users
here for each water connection,
rather than the 4.38 figure used
in Portland.
The 3.50 basis would indicate
that Bend has a population at
present of 12,820, which approxi
mates the pre.census guesses.
Bend's 1910 population was 10,021.

Names of Hiss,
Sayre Reported
Seen by Jordan
Washington, March 3 Mi Ex
air force Major George Racey
Jordan today told the house un
American activities committee
that he found the names "Hiss"
and "Sayre" on state department
folders bound for Russia in a
lend-lease plane in 1943.
Jordan, who made no further
identification of the names, said
the folders contained "many
photostatic copies of state depart
ment records."
(There is a Francis B. Sayre
who is member of the U.S. mis
sion to the United Nations. He
was once a high official in the
state department.
(Alger Hiss, former official in
the state department, now is un
der sentence after conviction for
perjury In connection with the
Whittaker Chambers espionage
case.)
Courier Protested
Jordan said the discovery was
made when he examined the con
tents of a closely-guarded black
suitcase over the protests of a
Russian courier. He said the in
cident occurred while he was liai
son officer for lend-lease at the
Great Falls, Mont., air base over
which lend-lease materials were
ferried to Russia during the war.
He said he copied the two
names along with several others
in a notebook with the aid of a
flashlight. He said he riffled
through the contents of several
folders but did not examine them
closely. However, he said they all
appeared to be photostatic copies
of a "military nature."
"You are not inferring that
either of the persons whose
names you mentioned were actu
ally aiding the Russians in secur
ing U.S. government records are
you?" queried Rep. Richard Nix
on, R., Calif.
No, Jordan replied. "I only
saw the names there. If I had
thought there was anything Ir
regular I would have grounded
the plane."

Skulls Link Ape,
Man, Declared
Brisbane, Australia mi Prof.
R. A. Dan claims to have discov
ered a prehistoric skull which
links the human race with that
of the apes.
Dart, who Is dean of the facul
ty of medicine and dentistry at
Wiwatersand university, Johan
nesburg, South Africa, returned
to Brisbane for the first time since
he left, in 1918. as a captain in the
Australian army medical coi ns.
Dart claimed that he also was
the discoverer, in 1924, of the fa
mous Taungs and Makapansgat
fossil man-like ape remains.
He said his prehistoric skull is
that of an infant taung and that
it is 1,000,000 years old, filling up

Farming Proposed
For Frigid Yukon
Whltehorse, Yukon U Cana-
das' arctic icebox, long neglected
by Industrialists and farmers
alike, may have unsuspected pos.
sibilities as an agricultural area.
A small group of Canadians at
a remote experimental farm sta
tion here delved into the mighty
Yukon's possibilities over a five
year period.
They came up with the revela
tion that both the Yukon and the
vast north-west territories have
distinct agricultural possibilities.
Dr. E. S. Hopkins of Ottawa
scoffed at the idea that the arctic
was too cold for farmers.
"Although the winters are cold,
the summers do not differ greatly
from the months of June, July
and August in southern areas," he
said.
Another government official
claimed there were large areas of
excellent farming country in the
Yukon.
"There are huge tracts of land
which will yet prove to be arable,"
he said.
Dr. Hopkins compared tempera
tures in the Yukon to southern
cities, pointed out Whltehorse has
an average mercury standing of
54.3 while Edmonton has an aver
age of 59.7 during the hot sum
mer months.
Hopkins said that while there
was less rain In the far north,
cooler temperatures and a lesser
degree of evaporation left the
land with about as much water as
southern areas of greater precipi
tation. Oats, wheat, and barley, as well
as lettuce, turnips, potatoes and
hay crops, he said, could be
grown at the experimental station
here.
Hopkins said the group were
studying potential breeding areas
for shorthorn cattle and poultry
in the northland.
