A One-Sided Compromise .
a roviseil mihlirt utility district law, designed to stimu
late the consumption of Bonneville power through the crea
tion of public ownership districts, is ready to be dropped into
the legislative hopper the first of the week. Purportedly it
is a compromise measure, altered to conform to the ideas of
all public ownership advocates. Actually it is an attempt to
ram Hnwn V.o throats nf the
lied groups the arbitrary ideas of Administrator J. D. Ross
and his new deal syncopants.
The concessions made to their instance upon proper safe
guards being thrown are district organization procedure, the
power to levy taxes and issue and sell evidences of indebted
ness as well as property of the districts, are trivial and the
most objectionable features are retained in the bill. There is
nnthincr in the nronosed act to:
Limit the amount of property taxes which may be levied.
on the district to meet preliminary organization expenses or
the period of years over which such taxes may be levied.
Sell any or all of the properties of the district without a
vote of the people.
Require that district directors, empowered to levy taxes,
h( freeholders themselves.
Require representation of
the bonrrl of directors.
Establish minimums below which bonds or other evi
dences of indebtedness may be
Compel competitive bidding in the sale of all bonds or
certificates.
The only apparent concession made to any consequential
objection raised to the original draft of the proposed law is
the provision that the initial issue of revenue certificates by
the district must be approved by a vote of the people. But
this restraint is rendered ineffective by the fact that there is
nothing to prevent the directors of any district from pyra-
miding issues of revenue certificates to the limit of their
ability to sell them, once the
however small.
Bonneville's Barrage of Propaganda
Quite the busiest propaganda bureau in the northwest is
that conducted by Bonneville Administrator J. D. Ross. Not
a day passes without issuance of various rosy statements to
the press by wire and mail concerning the grandiose plans for
power.
The latest of these schemes is a network of power lines
to cover the country as a "defense" plan to link up Bonneville,
Grand Coulee, Fort Peck and Ross' pet plan of Skagit river.
In addition every dollar of the public's money expended in
ny locality gets a special press story to impress the public
with the magnitude and largess of Bonneville.
In the maps presented of the "master plan," power line
extensions are shown from Boise, Lewiston, Fort Peck and
bpokane on the east to Seattle,
port In the west, from Skagit in the north to the Shasta pro
ject in the south.
One feature that attracts attention is that nearly all the
projected power lines as well as those under construction
serve regions already adequately served by tax-paying pri
vate utilities, duplicating their systems for the purpose evi
dently of forcing their sale to PUD's. It is all part of the
Roosevelt war on private utilities to put them out of business.
The object of the special barrage of propaganda at this
lime is to influence the Oregon and Washington legislatures
to amend their PUD laws, so as to give directors power to
issue unlimited securities without a vote of the people and
power to fix rates to satisfy the demands of the Wall street
brokers with whom Ross has contracted to sell the PUD bonds
at a commission of 2Vi percent.

uncontrolled spending was leading again to inflation. Appar

It was early spring, but he saw a fig

Bible students look upon this In

which Orientals are so familiar. The
barren fig tree represented the

them. It was wealthy, outwardly

fanatically religious In an external
way. But at heart there was no
soundness. And as Jesus saw Its
sinister fate looming before It, he
wept over It.
Now leaves are beautiful and they
have an Important office In the life
of the tree. But, when we raise fig
trees we want fruit as well as leaves.
The forms and ritual of religion are

They decay and make sou. But

he haa nothing but weeds to show

As I have thought of that weedy

are there not many lives as useless
to Ood and man as that tree or that
weedy lot? These lives may be fair
without, but what have they to show
In the line of devotion to their Crea

Those weeds were not poisonous
but they were useless. In a world
where myriads are starving this ex
traordinarily fertile lot produced
weeds! And In this world where
other myriads are starving for the
Bread of Life there are so many
useless lives, whose talents are
utilized for naught but their own
selfish gain or gratification. It Is a
serious question we should ask. Do
our lives produce merely leaves or
do we bear fruit? Are we raising
Just weeds, or are we raising food
that the starving may eat?

sal." Sueh skeptical

Public dissenters
Paul Mallon
probably would
lose their official heads If they
spoke out now, but congress may
find some amazing dissenting reports
and views Inside the navy and war
departments If it goes rummaging
around for the full story.
It will find this one In particular
which establishes professional ob
jection to the fortification of Guam,
not on Japanese interest or politics
or cost, but on the ground that it
would be a foolhardy military and
diplomatic blunder.
Guam a Liability
This reasoning was considered
good common sense when It was the
accepted official viewpoint of the
navy arid army up to the time of
the Hepburn report. It runs this
way:
No matter how great our defen
sive preparations. Guam could be
made self-sustaining In war for only
a limited time. It could not be re
lieved when besieged, or succored
when attacked because It lies deep
within prospective enemy terri
tory. Innumerable enemy bases are
in the Caroline and Marshall Is
lands intervening between It and
Hawaii. To relieve It these bases
would have to be conquered by us,
step by step, a problem which (this
authority says) would result in
collossal disaster.
Its creation Is certainly provoca
tive. Yet the base itself will be so
weak that it will practically be
hostage In enemy territory, lessening
the force of our far eastern diplo
macy. At the same time it will more
deeply involve and entangle us in
European causes In the far east
On the other hand if the U. 8.
keeps to Its adopted line of Alaska-Hawaii-Panama
defense, It will
avoid the danger of becoming in
volved in the Pacific and it will
have an Invulnerable position, from
which it could carry war into enemy
territory with minimum danger and
cost.
Only a Starter
A rumor ran around town a year
ago that this country might seek to
establish a Guam base. An official
navy spokesman at that time ridi
culed the idea on the above ground.
After the navy sent its new base
bill to congress, he was asked how
he came to change his mind.
He said he did not know then the
government might "pour all this
money" into it The $5 million ap
propriation apparently is only a
starter to build a base for 20 to 30
airplanes.
"A major advance fleet base Is
contemplated In the Hepburn re
port upon which the bill Is founded.
He pointed out Guam would be of
material protection to the Philip
pines, although neither he nor the
Hepburn repwrt made clear why the
Philippines were worth defending.
Heretofore, the islands have not of
ficially been considered so.
Hidden Motives
For these resaons, common sup
position In congress has been that
Mr. Roosevelt may have some diplo
matic purpose in mind perhaps
hoping to crowd Japan into a treaty
perpetually neutralizing the Philip
pines, which would be advantageous
to American defense, or into keep
ing the open door In China ajar,
despite the Japanese bayonets sur
rounding it.
Conclusive information la lacking,
but Mr. Roosevelt's personal Inter
est Is taken for granted by most
observers. His comment that the
bill had not been seen at the White
House did not challenge this gen
eral assumption, as he is so close
to the navy, no one here can con
ceive of such a naval step being
taken without his approval or di
rection. Cotton Control .

River Filtration
Advised by Koon
R. E. Koon, consulting engineer for the city of Salem wa
ter department, last night recommended to the water com
mission that water to supplement the present underground
supply on Stayton Island be taken
directly from North Santlam river.
and that a filtration system be built
for the purpose. He recommended
also that a settling basin be built
near the lower end of the island to
remove from the water the sandy
deposits that were observed last
summer.
The filtration plant and direct In
take from the river will not be an
immediate project. The settling ba
sin will be. and will be completed by
mid-summer if the commission ap
proves plans which It last night in
structed Mr. Koon to prepare, in
time for the next meeting two weeks
hence or aa soon thereafter as pos
sible. The present underground infil
tration system on the island pro
vides an ample supply for seven or
eight months of the year, or around
10,000.000 gallons daily. But for the
hot summer months it is calculated
to produce only about 6.500,000 at

In Quackerville
"The Idea of having them think
I might start a quarrel with Mrs.
Quacker," Mrs. Quacko thought
somewhat angrily, as she started off.
Mrs. Quacko slipped twice on the
ice on her way to Mrs. Quacker s.
which delayed her. She had to stop
and smooth her feathers and let
them dry a bit in the sun. It had

led on the snow so that It almost
dazzled the poor duck.
At last she reached Quackerville.
Mrs. Quacker came forward to
meet her and they smacked beaks
in a friendly fashion.
"It's very cold weather," remark
ed Mrs. Quacker.
"Dear, dear, dear duck me. I
haven't discussed the weather like
that in a long time. I suppose it
makes ducklsh conversation over
here where things are so quiet,"
"After staying away from me all
this time you're not very polite,"
quacked Mrs. Quacker.
"I'm polite and there's no more
reason why I should always make
the effort to come and see you than
that you should visit me once in a
while." Mrs. Quacko snapped.
"Well, you needn't come at all If
you don't enjoy seeing me," quack
ed Mrs. Quacker.
"I didn't say I dldnt enjoy com

"You've got a duck nerve, you

voice called out to her making her
drop her wing to her side.

the lowest, which is not sufficient
if the commission continues to sell
water to the paper mill in Salem.
Hence It would be necessary to use
the filter plant only part of the year.
Tests Are Negative
The recent thorough investigation
into the possibility of adding to the
underground supply by drilling wells
on the island appears to prove, Mr.
Koon said, that this Is not feasible.
Only one of the eight test holes
drilled has shown a plentiful sup
ply. Over a continuous pumping test
of about a week it produced around
a million gallons daily. Mr. Koon,
however, doubts if it could be de
pended on to do that throughout
the year. To play absolutely safe he
thinks provision should be made for
an additional supply of nine or 10
million gallons dally. He believes
there is an ample underground sup
ply on the Island, but says the cost
off getting at it would be too great.
In fact several million gallons are
going to waste dally except during
the hot months.
It had been suggested that dams
might be constructed in the river to
solve the problem of creating a sit
uation In the summer comparable
U that In the winter when the river
is at its highest. Mr. Koon and his
partner, Stevens, studied this and
recommended against it.
If and when the filter plant Is
built It will be on top of. and form
the. roof of the settling basin. The
filter plant will require a line of
30-lnch pipe about 7,000 feet long
from Intake to settling basin. The
filter plant will be a small one-unit
construction at the start. No est!
mate of cost was made. Roughly the
cost of the settling basin was esti
mated at $10,000 or $12,000. Manager
Cuyler Van Patten told the commls-
slon there Is ample money, about
$30,000, from which the cost can be
taken.
It was brought out last night that
part of the construction plana of the
department is a 600,000-gallon stor
age tank, to be mounted on a tower
about 120 feet high, in northeast
Salem, wblch is the district farthest
from the Falrmount reservoir and
where pressure la reduced by the
friction of distance. Until such time
as this is built it will be necessary
at times to use the well on Market

To the Editor: I greatly admire
the stand that your paper has tak
en on the employment situation in
the state legislature and your cour
age in calling it to the attention of
the public.
It Is to be deplored that those re
sponsible for making appointments
for various positions, In the major
ity of cases, have appointed men
and women who are not In dire need.
I checked a communication which
appeared In your Issue of January
12 and find it to be a correct state
ment of fact, that the man em
ployed In one of the most lucrative
minor positions, has a wife who has
been and la at the present time in
the employ of the state.
There Is another matter which I
wish to call to your attention. Who
Is paying a certain doorkeeper's
salary, who takes it upon himself to
open and read notes given him to
deliver to members of the house?
Keep up the fight In the Interest
of those who need employment and
who are qualified to fill positions at
the state legislature.
As long as the present attitude la
held by those responsible for ap
pointments and by those who accept
appointments. Just so long will we
continue to have to provide relief
funds and maintain the WPA.
I trust that other good citizens
will publicly assist you In your
fight, and commend you by letter.
Sincerely,
Henry O. Johansen.
