ROADS BLOCKED
BY SNOWDRIFTS
Bend, Or., Jan. 21 OP)"-- The
Dalles-California highway north of
Bend, was blocked by snowdrifts in
three' places this afternoon and" all
traffic north of Madras to Crltereon
was halted. Snowdrifts ranging up
to twelve feet in depth covered the
road near Crltereon and Culver and
between Metollus and Madras.
By detouring through wheatflelds
around the drifts, a stage from Bend
reached Madras today, but was un
able to go north from that point.
The snowdrifts in most instances
were In deep cuts Into which high
winds packed snow last night.
The highway department has as
sembled all available snow remov
ing equipment both north and south
of the blockades and It was hoped
the road would be open by night.
South of Bend the highway was
open and in fair condition. Snow
was melting here this afternoon,
with the temperature at 40 degrees,
a rise of 54 degrees In 30 hours.
JAPAN PURCHASES
CHINESE EASTERN
Tokyo, Jan. 22 IP) (Tuesday)
Technical negotiations for the pur
chase of the Chinese Eastern rail
road by Manchukuo were completed
here today at a conference of repre
sentatives from Manchukuo and So
viet Russia.
Formal signing of the agreement
will be made shortly.
Transfer of the Russian Interest
to the new Manchukuan empire was
considered by many observers as a
great relief to frequent periods of
tension between the Soviet republic,
Manchukuo and Japan. Sporadic
clashes along the border had punc
tuated a dispute which started last
spring over the operation of the Chi
nese Eastern line. - "
Announcement that a technical
agreement had been reached led to
belief that the most Important prob
lemguarantee of Manchukuan pay
ments by Japan had been accepted
by Russia. - -

Election of Successor
To Needham Principal
Business Before Council
Election of a member of the city council to succeed
Frank E. Needham of the third ward will be the most im
portant business coming before the city council tonight if
me election takes place.
There was some possibility today
that the election might be deferred
two- weeks while the sentiment
among the aldermen as to whom
the successor should be crystallizes
further. As It looked today the
choice was likely to fall to John D.
Minto. The opinion of the council
seemed to trend that way. W. H.
Dancy, former alderman, is In the
race, so Is Arthur H. Moore, al
though two councilmen said they
had seen a statement signed by
Moore In which he said he would
withdraw. One Alderman said he
saw this statement last Thursday
night at a council caucus, and that
the withdrawal was in favor of Min
to. The alderman added that he
TROOPS GATHER
Berlin, Jan. 21 (JP) Gierman news
papers accused Lithuania of "saber
rattling" today as a Lithuanian offi
cial admitted a concentration of
troops along the Memel border.
Dr. Jurgu Saulys, Lithuanian min
ister to Berlin, readily acknowledged
the concentration but said, however,
that Germany has increased its
"armed forces along the German
Lithuanian frontier."
The German propaganda ministry
denied any movement of the SA
(storm troops) along the frontier.
"We called in reserves of the 1907
and 1908 classes for a three months'
practice according to schedule," said
Dr. Saulys.
"The fact that we concentrate
them along ' the Memel territory
rather than elsewhere In Lithuania
need not be the occasion for sur
prise when one learns the Germans
have increased their armed forces
along the German-Lithuanian fron
tleru ond that in Tilsit (German
border city) there' has been an ap
preciable increase In machine guns.
"Lithuania does not intend to cre
ate trouble. Our measures are en
tirely according to-schedule."
Earlier a statement from the Li
thuanian capital denied " German
press reports of troop concentration.
Nazi newspapers take the stand
that the city of Memel should bo
restored to Germany.
Memel, under a convention of the
League of Nations in 1924, is a unit
within the sovereignty of Lithuania,
but with some degree of adminis
trative and financial self-rule.
The port is Lithuania's only outlet
to the sea. Before the World war
the city belonged to Germany. It
was administered by the Allies after
1918 while its status was being ar-
gucd but in 1923 Lithuanians seized
it by a surprise attack, forcing a
French garrison to avacuate.
The cooperation of Harry Riches,
Marlon county agricultural agent,
has been sought by the Salem
chamber of commerce.in connection
with the securing of contracts with
farmers of the valley for the rais
ing of 1000 acres of flax. The Cham-!
pagne company of France la seek
ing the acreage, the product to be
used In the manufacture of the cig
arette paper. The Champagne com
pany's Interests are being looked
after by Wm. Einzig, secretary of
the state board of control, While
some acreage has been signed up
additional farmers are being sought
who will contract. The price offer
ed Is $23 a ton for cut flax, equal
to about $25 per ton for the pulled
product. '

"My name Is in the pit," he said.
"I am running against a pair of

to and Jack Dancy.
Efforts were made to call a cau
cus Sunday, but this did not mater
ialize. One alderman said today he
thought the completion of the cam
pagining today would be "by but
tonhole instead of by caucus." He
added that he thought Mlnto had
enough votes for election.
Several members wanted to see
the issue settled in caucus to avoid
personalities on the floor of the
council and the necessity of taking
more than one ballot.
It is presumed the council tonight
will elect a city mechanic, a new
office recently created. Over a doz
en applications were in the hands of
the city recorder today and several
ballots may be necessary.
New developments In the water
controversy probably will be airtd
tonight. Among Important measures
to come up for third reading, if re

member of the state legislature, will
be a guest at tonight's meeting and

COOTER TALKS
RELIEF CRISIS
One of the most vital 1 problems
facing the Oregon legislature Is the
one of raising funds with which to
take care of the unemployed, John
Cooter, speaker of the house of rep
resentatives told a capacity audi
ence at the chamber of commerce
luncheon Monday noon. '
The problem Is particularly press
ing in view of the fact that hun
dreds of families from the drought
section of the middle west are mov
ing this way with the determination
of staying in Oregon. The speaker
said he felt sure a planning mea
sure satisfactory to a mlg majority
would be on the desk of the repre
sentatives and senators before many
days. One of the biggest Jobs of
the planning commission will be the
raising of some $4,000,000 with which
to take care of the state's unem
ployed. Speaker Cooter said he found
members of the legislature deter
mined to know the facte concerning
the measures upon which they will
be called to pass an opinion much
more so than has been the case last
session or during the special session.
In his opinion the legislature will
follow the leadership of Governor
Martin, believing that he will not
recommend legislation not in the
general Interest of the state. In
fact, he added, legislators are not
much concerned whether the organ
ization Is democratic or republican,
but whether proposed legislation is
for the best Interest of the state.
BUSTER
OPENS TUESDAY
RECLAMATION
ENDORSED BY
SURVEYJOARD
Washington Jan. 21 IP) The
Haw-Schmitt land survey commit
tee recommended today to Secretary
of Interior Harold L. Ickes that the
federal government continue re
clamation work in the west.
"Except for the Influence of the
present depressed farming, condi
tions and operating projects are in
the main excellently developed and
represent strong prosperous com
munities," the board reported.
The board pointed out that pre
sent reclamation procedure "en
counters its most troublesome prob
lems in the financial relations be
tween the water users and the gov
ernment." It said "problems arise from the
fact that the reclamation bureau,
though not a banking agency, is
required to carry out the banking
function of collecting the Install
ment payments on the cost of the
works." i
The committee recommended
the reclamation bureau be relieved
of this financial responsibility.
The board said that "for per
manent security of irrigated agri
culture, future reclamation should
include measures that will prevent
overdevelopment of land beyond
the available water supply, and
control of storage should remain In
hands of the federal government to
assure equitable distribution."
The committee recommended a
uniform policy for reclamation and
utilization of power produced on
such projects. ...
Reclamation power recommenda
tions, .the committee said, should
include the principle that the farm
ing enterprise and the power en
terprise are independent activities
and, to be sound, should each stand
on its own feet.
