Members of tho Oregon land settle
ment commission, with whom O. H.
Uakerof this city met Monday night
in Portland, aro keenly allvo to tho
noeds of (ho returned soldier. They
are sincerely sorry for tho men who
wore supposed to bo given an oppor
tunity, under tho land settlement
commission act, to acqulro farm
homes. Jiut sympathy Is about as
far aa.lt goes, for tho majority of
tho members Of tho commission stand
pat on their former decision to limit
their activities, to tho establishment
and salo of model farms, at n price
which' Is far beyond tho means of
tho average returned scrvlco man.
Mr. Daker, member of tha commis
sion from this section, was given a
decidedly cold reception when he
arrived In Portland, for nows ot his
Intention to ask a thorough explana
tion of the cut and dried plans which
forget the returned soldier bad pre
ceded him. Mr. Daker refused to bo
Ignored, howover, and refused to bo
tnlked down, with tho result that
ho kept Whitney L. Dotsa of Portland
busy explaining until after midnight.
"It was an explanation which failed
to explain," Mr. Daker stated on his
return to Dend, declaring that tho
soldlor, sailor and marine clauso In
the, legktfailvo act was nothing mora
nor less than using tho uniform to
Insure tho passage ot tho bill.
Law Sfttht Not Interfere.
The other members ot the com
mlwilon admitted that this clause ex
isted, aud that it ralKht bavo some
Blgnlfldl5eaoth':geTiertI' ftuMlc,
but It really had nothing to do with
tho work of tho land settlement com
mission, they told Mr. Daker. All
that had apparently been thoroughly
taken care of before tho Dend com
missioner was appointed, oven before
tho passago ot tho legislatlvo act,
and If tho law Interfered with tho
preconcoived plan for modol farms
bo much tho worso for tho law, was
tho Intimation conveyed to Mr. Daker
Monday night.
To Continue Fight.
"I haven't any objection to tho
modol farm plan," tho Dend commis
sioner stated today. "In fact. I
think It Is to be commended. Dut
soldiers, Bailors and marines, who
nro supposed to bo provided for, are
being ontlroly passed up, and that's
tho basis of a very real objection."
Mr. Daker will continue to work
to socuro the fulfillment ot tho
promises roado In tho legislative act,
and promises a real surprlso for tho
other membors ot tho commission
when ho makes his noxt move.
Tho land settlement act is, In tho
main, tho child ot 'Whltnoy L. Dolso
ot Portland, who has developed the
Idoa In cooperation with Professor
H. L. Scuddor ot tho Oregon Agri
cultural college. Originally planned,
ns Indicated by tho namo, for tho
purpoao ot bringing settlors onto tho
land, tho idea was enlurged, In Its
nppcaranco boforo the legislature,
and the feature ot bringing soldiers
to tho land added, Just aa bo many
othor ot tho so-called "reconstruc
tion" measures woro based on tho
need ot caring tor tho roturncd sol
dier. Soldier Aid Ignored.
This soldier foaturo appears In
section 1 ot tho act, providing that
it may bo known as tho soldiers'
land settlement act; In section 2,
where tho object Is Btatcd as tho
provision ot "usoful employment and
tho opportunity to acqulro farm
homes with profitable livelihood on
tho land tor soldiers," and others,
mid finally, In tho last section, whero
It Is doelarod that tho dlachargo ot
largo numbors ot Oregon soldlors
with no adequato provision for tholr
material wolfaro has causod an
omorgoncy.
At tho first mooting ot tho commis
sion tho roturned soldier vus baroly

Introduced to present a plan for tho
establishment ot a model farm near

Carrier, Escaping from Forest Service
Loft Hero Six Weeks Ago, Finds
Homo of Former Owner.
(From Friday's Dally.)
After making Its cscapo from tbo
forest service loft in this city six
wooks ago, a carrier pigeon secured
recently by William' Sproat, ot tho
local office, has been located In Port
land, according to advices received
this morning by Mr. Sproat. The
bird, which had had no previous
training aa a homer, made Its way to
tho loft maintained by its former
owner, and was traced by means ot
tho aluminum registry band which
onclrclod ono ot Its logs.
Tho plcgon had beon In Dend only
two weeks, an Insufficient tlmo to
establish a now reBldonco, and when
a door was Inadvertantly left opon
took tho opportunity to return to
Portland, For an untrained bird
the (light is considered remarkable.
Mr. Sproat was advised that tho
bird will bo returned to Dend at
once.

Mills Important Factor In Over-Sab-
Mciiptlon of Donda County Went
Over Top More Quickly
Than Had Does Expected.
(From Thursday's Dally.)
Deschutes county Is over the top
In tho Victory loan drive.
This was tho announcement this
morning ot County Chairman C. S.
Hudson after A compilation ot re
turns given In report, from City
Chairman II. J. Overturt, Redmond
and tho First National and Central
Oregon banks ot Dend. As a matter
of fact, tho county' probably met Its
quota several days ago, but the slow
ness with which reports havo como
in prevented an official announce
ment that the goal had been reached.
In tho original apportionment of
quotas, $173,476 was set as the
amount for Deschutes county to
raise, but the total struck this morn
ing was 1183,000. A number ot the
rural districts are still to be heard
from, and subscriptions aro still be
ing taken in Dend, bo that It IB esti
mated that another 110,000 may be
secured before the county chairman
makes his final report to stato head
quarters. Milk Far Over Top.
Figures so far available show that
tho two big mills in Bend were Im
portant factoln In causing the couaty
so far exceed' to exeeed Its quota.
They were first to go over the top,
and since that time bavo continued,
steadily o 04 ttrihiUBWer1tlwM,v.--
piling up a large surplus. Boad
purchases through the city were by
no means so satisfactory, many who
had been expected to mako substan
tial subscriptions doing nothing.
Mr. Hudson expressed hlmsolt aa
being surprised that tho county bad
gono over as quickly as It has. Tho
lack ot war time enthusiasm, which
played so important a part In former
drives, was the chief causo ot the
campaign taking so much longer
than was necessary to float tho other
Issues, he belioves.
