Byron Timber and Bridges The reply of the highway commission is a complete answer to the demands of timbermen that the five proposed large bridges on the coast highway be constructed entirely of timber. These are large crossings, involving the con struction of long span cantilever and arch structures, bas cule spans, swing bridges and other structural types, for which only steel and concrete are practical. It would be just as reasonable for the timbermen to demand that Oregon sky scrapers be built of lumber. In addition, there Is the menace of fire and the ravages of marine borers in the salt water streams crossed; and in all probability the refusal of the federal government, which is furnishing the money, to permit anything experimental in permanent structures. Under the designs adopted, more lumber is used for false work and concrete forms than would be the amount of timber for the composite type of bridge. The lumber used for the concrete approach is such as can be supplied by local mills, whereas the composite type can only be furnished from St. Helens, where the creosote plant has virtual monopoly for the state. The highway commission has done and is doing a great deal for the timber industry. It has through research work developed new types of timber construction suitable for highway bridges including a composite type of short-span trestle or viaduct utilizing creosoted timber in combination with a roadway deck of reinforced concrete, which is appli cable to fifty percent of the highway bridge spans, the cost being only 60 percent of the cost of the permanent types, heretofore utilized. In the past year 29 such bridges, with a total length of 2417 feet have been built, and hundreds more are projected for the future. No other state in the union utilizes timber for bridges as Oregon has in the past year. With the highway commis sion's pioneering published in departmental bulletins, the use of timber in bridge construction throughout the United States will be immensely stimulated. The research work for further use of timber in highway development is being con tinued for the benefit of the industry. The Cherry City The Portland Journal remarks: ; Does Salem know that she has to defend her claim to the title or the Cherry City? The Dalles is a contender (or supremacy as a producer of premier cherries. The Dalles cherries sent to Portland by E. C. Pease, former member of the state board of higher education, are a challenge to all comers and a clnhn to superiority in cherry production, size, flavor, color and all the other virtues of aristocracy In cherries are in The Dalles product. Salem's title of the "cherry city" is based not only on the superiority of its premier cherries but on its greater acre age of cherry orchards and its larger shipments. Both in quality and quantity Salem cherries top the northwest. Perhaps The Dalles district produces as fine cherries certainly it produces no finer ones than the Salem district. It is a dubious problem to determine because The Dalles cherries ripen before those of Salem and hence difference of seasons make comparison difficult. But certainly The Dalles cherries are no larger or finer flavored or better colored, nor is the yield per tree any greater. We have no means of ascertaining the comparative cherry acreages of the districts, nt the present time, for these records are no longer tabulated by assessors. Canners and processors operating in both districts, however estimate the cherry yield this year, a fair average, as follows: Salem, Royal Anncs 5000 tons, black cherries 2000 tons, as against 3000 and 1000 tons respectively for The Dalles. So it is apparent that the title of Cherry City belongs to Salem and the new plantings insure it remaining here. Growth of Racketeering With the return of legalized beer, the beer barons, gun men and racketeers have taken to kidnaping as an easy way of raising unearned increment lost since the advent of 3.2. Their boldness is only equalled by their success. If they would confine their abductions to the "Jake the Barber" type of swindlers, there would be little public protest, though it proves there is no honor among thieves. The situation evidently calls for federal action for the ramifications of crooked politics makes local prosecution in effective. If the abductions continue to grow in number, and the peace officers remain as helpless as in the past, vigilantes will be called for from an outraged public. Bad as kidnaping is, racketeering is worse, for it per meates every rank of life and effects every industry in the largest cities. And every effort to prosecute results in whole sale murder of witnesses. Terrorism silences the voice of victims as well as cowes officialdom. In most of the trades, no one can land, or hold a job without paying tribute to some pretended labor leader. No one can build a building or operate a factory without cash protection, with assassination or bombing the penalty for refusal. In days of unemployment and wage decreases, the pro fits from the labor racket dropped tremendously. But now, with wages in many industries rising, employment increas ing, and building being resumed, the racketeers are back at their old game. It is in this racket the collection of com missions or gifts from working men that the "new deal" and its industrial codes protecting labor offer the greatest hope of action.

ROOSEVELT TO ASK REVISION OF STATE LAWS Washington, July 13 ((f) Presi dent Roosevelt wai understood to day to be considering an appeal to state governors to cause revision of state laws which now are In con flict with the national recovery act. The problem has arisen in con nection with legal difficulties, In cluding the possibility of court ac tion, which face the administra tion's efforts to restore purchasing power through speedy application to the recovery act. Some 16 or 17 states have laws which prohibit some of the prac tices permissible under the indus trial recovery act. These laws re late to price fixing, controlled pro ruction and other practices which would be allowed under relaxation of the Sherman anti-trust law as provided In the recovery act. Attorney General McKlttrlck of Missouri with other state officials had discussed the question with the president and with Industrial ad ministrator Hugh 8. Johnson. The Missouri state law prevents foreign corporations from entering into price ilxuig agreements to cur tall production. Revision of state laws to eliminate this conflict may be necessary, In the opinion of administrators of the recovery act. To carry this out speedily Mr. Roosevelt was under stood to be planning to ask gover nors of states where the problem is particularly acute to call their legis latures into special seoclons for this purpose. The president may act through the governors' association, it was learned. Continuation Of Columbia Dam Prom Page One ment, and does not contemplate that contracts for sale of power to return the cost shall be made In advance. Ultimately over a long be allocation of part of the cost term of years there doubtless will from power proceeds. "It was highly satisfactory talk, and I fed that the people of Oregon have every reason for congratula tion." The Oregon ian article continued that the president also favors a low dam at Grand Coulee in central Washington, to bo constructed under the public works act, if Washington organizes a district to finance the undertaking. The state of Wash ington would have to repay a loan of 70 per cent of the construction cost. Thirty per cent would be a grant. The president, the dispatch said, made a sharp distinction between Grand Coulee and the Columbia river, recognizing that they are dis similar except as to power, and as Grand Coulee has no navigation in volved it cannot qualify as a federal project like Improvement of the Columbia, which belongs to the rivers and harbors 'class. "The president's idea Is that Grand Coulee must be financed as a self-liquidating project by a dis trict, whereas the Columbia, witn Its navigation, is in the category of a federal undertaking. This program would not disturb local credit to obtain a dam for the Columbia. The president also ob served that navigation benefits Washington equally with Oregon." It was explained that with the government putting up all the money for the Columbia river dam, the government thus would own the project and would receive the power revenue therefrom. Oregon would thus be relieved of obligating itself to market the power or provide contracts for Its pur chase. The Oregonian dispatch said 'Senator Steiwer declared follow lng the conference that Improve ment of the Columbia Is more real now than ever and he 1 firmly convinced that the development will start soon." The dispatch to the Journal quoted Senator Steiwer as having declared "I was more than delighted with our conference with President Roosevelt. I had the feeling that we were all on one side of the table. that the president was with us and not against us. I am sure that we may count on him to place the first Columbia unit on the public works program, to be paid at government expense. That Is tremendously important. I was pleased and surprised to find the president so definite in his views, that he knew so much about the subject. We did not discuss par ticular projects, That will not be in order until the Warrendnle report Is In and the conclusions of the en gineers available." The Columbia river volley asso ciation in Portland received from Senator Steiwer word that the de velopment proposed, as outline by the president to McNary and Stei wer, is in addition to the "open river" channel development plan. R. H. Kipp. executive vice presi dent of the Columbia valley asso ciation, said the sit of the parti cular dam approved by the presi dent will be determined by the re port to be submitted July 20 by Colonel Thomas M.

Johnson stopped In on a group representing the National Retail council, central organization of most retail organizations, and on coming out, in replying to questions, said it looked as though this group would submit a definite code very shortly. A group of clothing manufacturers set up headquarters in a hotel and began trie taste of determining min lmum wages and maximum work ing hours for their industry. The national textile committee, representing cotton textile manu facturers, is to meet with adminis trators of the recovery act tomor row for an explanation and inter pretatlon of revisions made by Pres ident Roosevelt In the cotton textile code. The committee of the National Lumber Manufacturers association, which several days ago submitted a code to Johnson, conferred with him today to seek an adjustment of terms in the agreement which he had pronounced unacceptable. The code calls for working hours running as high as 46 a week with minimum wages as low as 22 ft cents an hour. Wilson Compton. manager of the association ,told newspapermen it might prove difficult to bring some branches of the industry to better labor terms because their present offering already represented a tre mendous improvement over prevail ing wage and hour levels. In many lumber mills and camps, he said, a sweat shop condition has existed. The manufacturers would not be disposed to raise their costs much higher until there was assur ance that manufacturers of com petitive products also Increased their production costs.

Joe Demaggio, 16-year-old out fielder for San Francisco, will have an opportunity to carve his name in baseball's hall of fame when the Seals play Los Angeles today. The youngster has hit safely In 48 consecutive games. He needs an other game to tie the record of 49 made by Jack Ness of Oakland In 1915. -Although this is his first season in the Pacific Coast league, Demaggio has shown the attributes of a sea soned player. He said he was con fident he woud tie and then beat Ness' mark. The first two times up against Hermann of Los Angeles yesterday, Demaggio popped out to Lillard and sent a fly to Statz in center field. He drove a double to left In the sixth. In the seventh he again knocked a fly to Statz. The Seals won, 4 to 1, but that was incidental to Demsgglo's safe hit so far as the fans were concerned. Jim Oglesby, Los Angeles first sacker, who also is trying to reach Ness' record, hit safely in his 34th straight game. The Sacramento Senators wel comed the Angels' defeat and Oak land's triumph over Portland, 10 to 4, for they increased their Jead on first place to a game and a half. The Senators broke Seattle's jinx over them by winning 4 to 3 In 10 Innings. Trailing by one run in the last half of the tenth, Sacramento scored twice to tally the winning marker. Vinci stopped the Indians with eight hits, while the Senators got 13 off Pillette and Sewell. McEvoy pitched the Oaks to their second straight victory over the Beavers and their tenth in 16 games this season. An error by Joe Pal misano accounted for three of the five runs made by Oakland in the first inning. The runs were scored when the Portland catcher dropped a pop fly with th ebases loaded. The Beavers outhit the Oaks 11 to 10. The Missions turned the tables on Holl v wood In an 11-inning battle. The Reds scored two of their four runs in the 11th when Louie Almada hit a homer and Lloyd Johnson, who let the Stars down with six bingles. scored Dahlgren with a single.

Later he will make a tour of the entire first district. He does not plan to return to Washingon until late In December.

UNBEATEN CLUB OF SiLVERTON COMES TONIGHT A large delegation of Silverton fans will be here to support their undefeated town baseball team which tangles with the Salem Sen ators tonight at 6:15 on Olinger field. Most of the Silverton men have been playing all season, though it was only recently that a town team was organized. Pour games without defeat have put the Silverton fans squarely behind Manager Qeorge ManolU and his crew. Silverton lias long been known as a great baseball town, its high school and legion junior teams always play ing smart, aggressive baseball. A number of Silverton's former nigh school and legion stars will be play ing here tonight. The mound staff is one of the points of strength on Manolis' team, but the hitters are also strong and all the men run the bases well. Don Burch has easily tamed all opposi tion in his mound efforts tnis sea son. Ed Tweed, who has a real fast ball and is getting more break on his curve ball all the time, will be the Solon's starting pitcher. He is also a Silverton boy, but decided he would rather catch on with the Sen ators. If Tweed shows well in today's game he may be started against Al bany here in Sunday's State league game, to save Delbert "Squeak" Wil son for a game here Tuesday. An nouncement will be made later about the Tuesday game, which will be one of tlie bright spots of the mid week series. Silverton won from the Senators last week, but Manager Frank "Burly" Bashor announces a much stronger lineup for tonight's game. Kenneth Manning, Carl Wood and Archie Rankin are heavy stickers who will be on hand tonight, but didn't play before. The other Salem players are ach ing for revenge, and feel confident that Burch will not fool them so easily again with his alow ball and sneaking fast one. A number of the men "bit" on outside balls at Sil verton and helped Burch get "ahead" of them.
