News reports from Washington show
that Secretary Fall is favorable to a
federal investigation of the Columbia
basin project in Washington. That is
well for there should be such an investi
gation. By the same token there should be
an official federal investigation of the
Umatilla rapids project. It is presumed
such an investigation may be had with
out legislation, but if it be necessary
for congress to act then it would be
extremely appropriate for the Oregon
and Washington delegations to get busy
in behalf of our great Columbia river
project.
If the Columbia basin project is wor
thy of attention by the federal govern
ment the Umatilla rapids project is dis
tinctly worthy of consideration. Here
are a few facts that show why.
The Umatilla rapids project would re
claim lands in both Oregon and Wash
ington; the Columbia basin project is
entirely a Washington affair.
The Columbia basin project would re
quire something like $260,000,000 for its
construction; the Umatilla rapids pro
ject can be built for (25,000,000 or one
tenth the cost of the Washington pro
ject. The per acre cost under the Columbia
basin project is $145.
The cost of irrigation under the Uma
tilla rapids project ranges from $67.00
per acre up to $80.58 per acre with one
tract of 14,600 acres on which the es
timated per acre cost Is $109.75. In oth
er words the main part of the land
under the Umatilla rapids project may
be reclaimed for less than half the per
acre cost of reclamation under the Col
umbia basin project. A total of 335,400
acres may be reclaimed by the Umatilla
rapids project through pumping.
But that is not all of the story. The
Umatilla rapids project involves a very
worth while improvement in navigation
on the Columbia and the generation of
125,000 continuous horse power in addi
tion to the secondary power needed for
irrigation purposes. The primary power
would be available for electrifying the
O. W. R. & N. system and the North
Bank road and for much more. The
power would all be within the transmis
sion radius of our principal northwest
cities, large and small, therefore would
be of extreme importance in developing
the country industrially and socially.
The proposed scheme for using this
primary power is reasonable and fair.
It is proposed to distribute this power
through the existing power companies
they selling it at prices fixed by official
regulatory bodies. In this way the
power companies would secure power
they need and it would be had at a gen
erating cost lower than it could be se
cured by private capital. Instead of be
ing in any way antagonistic to the pow
er companies, the construction of the
Umatilla rapids project would be a god
send to such companies. The power
companies use seven per cent money
while the government can secure money
at half that rate of interest. A private
power project is subject to taxation
while a government owned power plant
would not be taxed.
Some critics of the Umatilla rapids
project raise the point that under a
pumping project the annual mainten
ance cost of irrigation would be high.
But that is a difficulty easily solved. The
irrigationists would make use of the
power plant during a few months of
the year while those using the primary
power would make continuous use of
the plant. Therefore it would be logical
and possible to assess most of the over
head cost of the project against the pri
mary power. This could be done and we
would still have a continuous power
supply developed at a cost lower than
any present power in the northwest. By
this course the irrigationists could be
required to meet only the usual main
tenance cost and the whole northwest
region would be the gainer by develop
ment of the project.
We have no quarrel with the Colum
bia basin project for all wish success to
that project, but the plain facts are that
those who know the country and know
practical irrigation conditions realize
that as between the two projects the ar
guments are ten to one in favor of the
Umatilla rapids project. The cost of
$145 per acre contemplated under the
Columbia basin project is very high and
$250,000,000 is a very large sum for the
federal government to expend in any
single state. The Umatilla rapids pro
ject offers a scheme of benefit to two
states and the cost as compared to the
Columbia basin project would be negli
gible. The country has heard much about
the Columbia basin project and but lit
tle of the Umatilla rapids project. The
explanation is that the Columbia basin
project enthusiasts have had a total of
$167,000 for exploitation purposes and
an additional $25,000 with which the
Goethars report was secured. On the
Umatilla rapids project the total promo
tion expense thus far has been $1400.
There has been no money with which
to secure highly paid promotion experts
or famous generals. But the Umatilla
rapids project is rich in merit and a
candid investigation will so disclose.
The Portland chamber of commerce
officials realize the situation fully and
they are now working whole hcartedly
with our project association to see that
the Umntilla rapids project the Cin-
derllla of western projects shall have
place in the sun. It is right that
Portland should be busy for the Uma
tilla rapids project will be the opening
step in utilization of the Columbia river
and Portland's destiny is linked with
the development of our great river. Not
until the Columbia is harnessed can
Portland become the great city it should
be. When our power resources are de
veloped the region of which Portland
is the metropolis will become or.e of the
great manufacturing districts of the
world and the possibilities all around
are so great as to stagger the imagina
tion. Let the Northwest senators and repre
sentatives give a little thought to the
subject and they wiil discover that in
supporting the Umatilla rapids project
they will serve both Oregon and Wash
ington and will be back of an enterprise
that is practical at this time yet is so
wonderful in scope that it would be a
crime against nature and against hu
manity not to give it first class consideration.
Mrs. Wightman Dies on
78th Birthday Anniversary
Writing from his old home at Dauph
in, Penn under date of July 4, John J.
Wlghtman sends the following account
of the desth of his mother:
At the close of the day, during which
she celebrated her 78th birthday anni
versary, Mrs. Jesse Wightman died sud
denly Monday evening, June 26, at her
home in Stony Creek valley.
Born in Scotland, Mrs. Wightman
came to this country at the age of 21.
She resided at Shamokin until 80 years
ago when she removed with her family
to her late residence, a log farm house
which was erected more than 100 years
ago. The dwelling was one of the first
built in Stony Creek valley.
She is survived by four sons, Robert
C. and J. J. Wightman of Heppner, Ore
gon, and P. H. and W. T. Wightman of
Dauphin, and three daughters, Miss
Margaret Wightman of Fort Lapwai,
Idaho; Miss Helen Wightman of Phila
delphia and Agnei Wightman of Dauphin.
Funeral services wera held on July
2, after the arrival of J. J. Wightman,
who made the trip from Oregon to
Pennsylvania in 4 days. Rev. Peter
Hershey, pastor of the Dauphin Presby
terian church, officiated and the burial
was in the Dauphin cemetery.
Mr. Wightman also stated in the let
ter that he was leaving on the evening
of the 4th for Philadelphia, New York
and Boston and from there would re
trace his steps for Oregon.
He states that the country is beauti
ful there and the crops look good, but
the sun had no chance to shine long
enough to allow them to cut their grain;
it had rained every day since he arrived,
and plenty of thunder three thunder
storms in one day that killed eight cows
in a radius of 2 miles. He says that it
is too hot for John. Mr. Wightman left
Heppner immediately upon receiving
word of the death of his mother.
HOMEY PHILOSOPHY FOR 1922.
It ain't always necessary to use fig
ures to use arithmetic. Here's a young
roan all dressed up an' nowhere to go.
Add temptation, weakness of character,
desire for ease, opportunity for theft,
assurance of security, fright at discov
ery, an' the sura total is murderer. Wipe
the whole business off the blackboard in
the electric chair an' what have you
left? nothin.' If jails were schools you
could teach subtraction an' maybe get
the sum total back to the young feilow
ill by himself an' then by addition pro
duce a healthy, beneficial citizen worth
money to the finite and helpful to other
young fools. Maybe schools are better
than jails. What do you think?

ANNUAL ECONOMY RUNS
The Los Angeles-Yosemite (Camp Curry) Econ
omy Run is probably the most famous event of its
kind in the motor world. Every year about the mid
dle of May, while the snow still lies deep in the
mountain passes, from 15 to 20 cars start the stren
uous 360-mile run across the interior valleys and up
the difficult mountain roads into the Yosemite Val
ley. Every car is carefully groomed for victory, and
driven by an expert.
And in all the six runs so far held, all cars
entered have used Red Crown gasoline ex
clusively. This year the car making the run on the lowest
consumption of fuel, a Chevrolet driven by Dom
inick Basso, made the entire trip of 360 miles on 12
gallons of "Red Crown" (an average of 30 miles to
the gallon), and a pint of Zerolene.
The average gasoline consumption for all cars
participating was phenomenally low, This furnishes
striking evidence of the continued success of this
company in manufacturing a motor-car fuel of the
highest grade, justifying for six successive years the
unanimous choice of automotive engineers eager to
establish the best possible records for their cars.
This year, 18 of the 20 cars entered made the
An; riioranr on less than 20 eallons of "Red
Crown," although owing to recent rains the roads
were unusually difficult.
Red Crown gasoline is the most economical
mnfnr fnM nn the market today, because it con
tains the maximum number of heat units that can
be rapidly and uniformly vaporized in the modern
carburetor and go into complete combustion in
the cylinders, producing the maximum power the
engine was designed to develop.

garages and other dealers.
