SUPPORTS
SHIP PURCHASE
BILL IN SENATE
WASHINGTON. Jan. 29. The gov
ornmont ship purchase bill, received
its first support from tho republican
Bldo today. Senator Norrls of Ne
braska declared tho plan appealed
strongly to him and that If two
amendments ho had offered were
adopted ho would vote for It. Ono
amendment ho proposed would con
tinue tho government In the shipping
business even after the lines It es
tablished becomo profitable.
"Wo should let tho taxpayer sharo
tho profits as well as bear tho losses
of any of theso ventures," ho added.
Tho second nmondment Senator
Norrls said would provide that no ves
sels belonging to belligerent nations
bo purchased unless a diplomatic un
derstanding with other belligerents
had been reached, which would pre
vent tho possibility ,of International
complications.
Senator Norrls. who is regarded as
a progressive republican, said ho
would prefer to seo tho shipping
board which would bo created by tho
bill so organized as to bo taken wholly
out of politics, but that ho would
not Insist on any chango in tho pres
ent plan.
Senator Kcnyon, another progres
sive republican, offered two amend
ments, ono to eliminate cabinet off!
ccrs from the proposed shipping
board. Ho also proposed an amend
ment to provido "that none of the
ships to be purchased or chartered
by tho government should engage in
transportation of any munitions of
war from this country to any belliger
ent nation or citizens thereof."
TITER 13 is some dnngor that tho legislature in its frnn
tio effort to economize will destroy all tho eonst mo
tive legislation of the past deoado. So far tho vast major
ity of measures iulrodueed are destruetivo rather than
constructive.
Among the attacks inaugurated is one upon the state
bureau of mines and mining, which calls for a biennial
appropriation of $50,000. 'Phis bureau was created two
years ago in order to bring Oregon's mining resources to
the attention of the world. As Oregon ranks forty-fifth
in the list of mineral producing states, and yet adjoins
California, which ranks among the first, and as the state
has boon a wonderful gold-producer in the past and is cov
ered with promising prospects, it is surely time effort was
made to develop this latent resource.
Tho work of the bureau has consisted of a geological
survey and scientific investigation of the mineral regions
of the state, the results of which have been published in
six reports covering as main localities. Other localities
remain to be surveyed, as well as further investigations
completed in districts already partially covered.
Oregon minerals produced $l,7JGt02 in 191o, an in
crase of 160 per cent over the production of Iflll. The
output should show an equal increase bionniallv hence
forth. Among the results of the bureau's activity is the adop
tion of Oregon stone for federal buildings in Oregon.
Among other work now in progress is the investigation of
Quarries, and fire clays, silica,"kaolin. talc and other clay
and shale for manufacture of wares. The investigation of
artesian water possibilities, of oil and gas, of potash and
nitrates, of building stones and road materials sire all nec
essary for the upbuilding and development of our re
sources. It would bo a mistake to destrov the useful bureau of
mines, which fills a long-felt development want and which
means so much in the eventual industrial and mineral de
velopment of Oregon.

by Oil!. Tho latter stepjH'd forward
and by measurement of the map,
