announcement of J. 't . Delancy, dis

has Just returned from cauiomia.
Bids will be called for on the
project sometime next week," Mr.
Delancy reported. "The plans and

them all hole by the first of the

Work is already going ahead in
cleaning up the company's property
at South Liberty and Trade streets
where the plant Is to be erected.
While In the south Mr. Delaney
witnessed the New Year's day foot
ball game between the University
of Southern California and the Uni

was one of the most thrilling games
he ever watched in spite of the one
tided score.
"There was something doing ev

thing I ever saw. Some of the plays
were almost superhuman In the

Good Evening
Sips for Supper
By DON UPJOHN
"Coolldge Ready to Take Good
Job," says headline la the Oregon
Ian. Who ever heard ol a politi
cian that wasn't?
"Singing . In the Bathtub" Is the
name ol a song being sung over at
Frank Bligh's show shop which In
trigued us last evening. For not
long before hearing It, Newell Wil
liams, recounting his troubles run
ning for alderman had laid his de
feat to that very habit. That he
sang In the bathtub and left the
bathroom window open lor the
neighbors to hear, and at that he
lost by less than 300 votes.
We have it all over Newell. We
do the same thing and we bet we
could lose over 600 votes If we ran
out In our ward.
Newell and us could be great pol
iticians if they counted votes like
they count the score in golf. The
guv that gets the least wins. We
bet under those conditions we could
be elected councilman with a hole
in one.
J. D. Winn, whose column "Sips
for the Thirsty" in the Albany
Democrat-Herald we referred to
the other evening, has written us
saying he used to know us when he
was justice of the peace at Inde
pendence, when we used to try to
practice law over In Polk county
and we appeared before him sev
eral times both as a lawyer and in
other capacities. We thought he
named his column - faips ior me
Thirsty" after ours, but since find
ing out he used to be justice oi tne
peace at Indepsndence we know
different.
The other day the Statesman ran
a column and a half article boost
ing the Albany-Cascadia route over
the Cascade mountains while the
county court and citizens of Marion
county are making every effort to
secure the Salem . route from De
troit to Sisters. This probably re
veals in a good measure the animus
behind the Statesman's attack on
the county court.
The Albany-Cascadia route will
be a big boost to Corvallls and It
indicates as many people have for
some time suspected that while the
new editor of the Statesman lives
in Salem his heart is In Corvallls.
DEEP CHANNEL
Washington MV-Secretary Hurley
Monday recommended to congress
the creation of an 18-foot entrance
channel at Tillamook bay, Oregon,
at an estimated cost of 1672.000,
with $45,000 annually for mainten
ance.
The recommendation provides for
the extension of the north Jetty to
full project length, 5,700 feet. This
extension with some necessr.'y
dredging will provide a channel
depth of 18 feet compared with
the present 12 feet.
The report recommended that lo
cal interests should not be called
upon to assume the cost of Interior
channels until the entrance chan
nel of full project dimensions had
been assured.
It stated that no Improvement of
bay and entrance, other than as
authorized by the existing project
and that the timber resources of
the Tillamook area are of great ex
tent and value. The locality, ac
cording to the report has large po
tentialities and the channel im
provement should be maintained at
project dimensions.

MONOXIDE GAS
FROM AUTOS TO
BE ELIMINATED
Baltimore (JP) A practical means
of eliminating carbon monoxide,
the gas that takes an annual toll
of hundreds of lives when automo
bile engines are left running In
closed garages, is claimed in the
discovery of a John Hopkins Uni
versity professor announced Mon
day. Dr. J. C. W. Frazer. the B. N.
Baker professor of chemistry at
the university, made the an
nouncement that tests had shown
a motor equipped with his device
could run Indefinitely in a closed
garage without liberating carbon
monoxide. Offensive odors from
automobile exhausts, which abound
in heavy traffic can be suppressed
by the chemical action-and smoke
also will be entirely consumed,
Prof. Frazer added.
Carbon monoxide is produced by
incomplete combustion, and the
scientist's discovery is a chemical
catalyst which, when the exhaust
vapors pass over it mixed with- all
converts the monoxide to harmless
carbon dioxide. A device to ac
complish this has bsen made and
operated successfully in road tests
under all kinds of driving condi
tions, he said, but the present ob
pective is to simplify .the appara
tus and Prof. Frazer believes ac
complishment to this end Is in
sight.
Dr. Frazer's discovery resulted
from his work in the chemical war
fare service during the world war
to protect operating guns in clos
ed turrets.
STOP SWEARING
OVER THE RADIO
Washington (IP) The federal ra
dio commission and the attorney
general were asked in the senate
Monday by Senator Dill of Wash
ington to stop the broadcasting of
"obscene language by Station
KWKH at Shreveport. La.
Dill had read a telegram from
L. J. Watrous of Minneapolis, Minn.,
m which a complaint against the
station was made, and then ex
pressed the opinion that If the
radio commission believed it had no
authority to prosecute, the attorney
general had such power under the
penal provisions of the radio act.
"It would seem," the Washington
senator said, "that public interest
alone would justify the stopping of
this broadcasting. The law makes
it a crime to use profanity on the
air."
The station is operated by W. K.
Henderson, who is an outspoken op
ponent of chain stores.

LABOR STARTS
UNION DRIVE
IN THE SOUTH
Charlotte, N. C. (IP) Labor chief
tains of the nation met here Mon
day with leaders of the movement
In Dixie to launch the long heralded
southern labor drive.
By vote of the last annual session
of the American federation of labor,
intensive organisation of southern
labor, especially in the textile belt ot
North Carolina, was ordered.
President William Green of A. P.
O. L. led the national leaders Into
Charlotte, while President T. A.
Wilson of the North Carolina fed
eration, was In charge of the state
delegation.
Throughout the textile belt for
nr. hs there have been sporadic In
stances of disallectlon among me
workers, countered by assertion of
mill operates that radical organ
izations were responsible, and not
the existing labor conditions.
Bitterness leading even to blood
shed has been engendered. Six tex
tile unionists were slain In a clash
with deputy sheriffs at the gates of
the Marion Manufacturing company
in October. Two other fatal clashes
occurred at GaGtonla.
The purpose of the conference,
according to a statement issued by
President Green In Washington, Is
to "map out a plan for organizating
the wage earners of the south,"
through a campaign expected to be
"the most extensive of its kind ever
inaugurated by the American Fed

DISTRICT VOTES
DETROIT ROAD!
Seventeen taxpayers of the De-
trolt mad district at a special
meeting voted unanimously to ac
cept the proposal of the forest ser
vice asking that the Breitenbu&h
road be turned over to the county
and maintained as a county road
and also that $3000 be put on the
road for graveling by the county
along with $1000 from Breitenbush
Hot Springs company and $2000
from the federal government. This
is a greater number of taxpayers
of the di&trict.
Inasmuch as the maintenance of
the road and cant of the graveling
would come from district funds It
is likely the county court will ac
cede to the proposition although the
court will broach to P. J. Bruck
man, head of the Breitenbush Hot
Springs company that the company
enter into an agreement to assist
with some annual allowance for
maintenance to assist the district.
The forest service above the $2000
offered for gravel agreed to give
an additional $450 the first year
for maintenance but evidently de
sires to be rid in the future of any
cost of maintenance on the road.
It is hoped by the court that the
hot springs company will donate
something every year for mainten
ance in lieu of what the forest ser
vice would otherwise put up. The
road cost around $50,000 to con
struct, the forest service spending
$40,000 and the hot springs company
the other $10,003.
Last year It accommodated thou
sands of travelers going into the
hot springs and people of the dis
trict especially In Detroit have
found local business greatly en
