Somo CompttdionUvo Plait,
Thnt Portland business mon arc
really miking up to the Importance
of irrigation in Bnstorn and Contnil
Oregon nnd tho fact that a wlso so
lution of tho question means much
to thorn is indicated by tho Intorest
they aro beginning to take In tho
propositions developed at tho recent
Irrigation Congress.
According to tho Journal they nre
now making a serious study of the
different aspocts of the irrigation
problem and a commltteo from tho
Portland Commercial Club will spend
the nest two years in co-oporatlvo
study with other organizations to de
vise an adequate plan for tho future.
Tho Journal artlclo Is as follows:
"During tho past week tho business
organizations of Pottland, for tho
first time in their experience, hare
seriously considered going Into tho
business of reclamation by irrigation.
"They aro now considering theso
questions:
"Should tho legislature bo petition
ed to appropriate $450,000. to which
will bo added $460,000 sot asldo by
tho government for reclamation work
In Oregon provided tho state makes
Its appropriation? ' '
"Should business orgnhttations of
Portland tako up fie marketing of
tho lands when reclaimed so that ac
tual settlers of experience and Indus
try may bo located at minimum cost
and to their own advnntag7
"Should tho question of markets
for products of reclaimed lands bo
mado tho subject of serious study by
tho beat authorities on raarketlngT
"Should tho questions of adequato
transportation by roads, railroads
and by water be taken up by tho or
ganization of Portland?
"Tho business mon have had It
presented to them that it is Port
land's opportunity and duty to lead
tho way in state, or ttato and govern
ment, reclamation of arid lands In
order that aroas now wasto may bo
populated and becomo feeder terri
tory to the elty.
"There has been no dispute,' of tho
proposition that the problem of rec
lamation by Irrigation Is one qf tho
most Important confronting tho state
nod that unless some broad policy Is
ndonted of bringing tho lands Into!
bearing by gottlng an unfailing sup
ply of water to tho lands little in
crease in the population of Eastern
Oregon can be expected.
"No comprehensive reclamation
plan has yet been adopted, nnd. In
addition to endorsing the $480,000
state appropriates, the Commercial
Club committee has agreed to spend
two years In co-operation with other
organizations and agendo In devis
ing an adequate plan.
'By means of the state's $410.80
added to a like amount from the gov
ernment. 20.000 to 20.000 acres
may be reclaimed, while the details
of tlie general plan are being worked
oat."
