Governor in Special Message
to Legislature Asks Laws to
Preserve Natural . Beauties
Along Highways Trees
Should Be Protected.
SALEM, Ore.. Jan. 25. Urging en
actment of laws to preserve the scenic,
beauties along tho highways of the
state, 'Governor Hen W. Olcott today
delivered a special message to the
legislature. The governor submitted
In connection with his message drafts
of five proposed laws to put his plan
Into effect.
Tho laws would give the stnto high
way commission power to acquire
rights of way ulong highways for main
tenance and preservation of scenic
beauties, would make It unlawful to
destroy trees along a state highway
without permission of the -highway
commission, would authorize the com
mission to acquire land for parks and
parking places, and require persons
making any alterations in highways or
rights of way to obtain' a permit from
the stuto highway engineer.
"No other state in tho union has
been blessed with so many natural
glories as Is the state of Oregon," said
the governor In his message. "Crown
ing all these glories are our foroHt
growths. Without them our mountains
would bo rocky, forbidding emiiionc.es;
our streams would dwindle Into rivu
lets; our lakes be shorn of the sylvan
frlngos which muke them entrancing
to the nuture lover, and our valleys bo
monotonous stretches . . .
"Tho public realizes the importance
of these things' now, and is fully awake
to tho fact that, while we have lost
ninny tilings, there are many things
things wo may cling to and preserve
for all posterity. This legislative as
sembly may make Itself remembered
in tho hlBtory of our state by prompt
action to assist in tho preservation of
what should nover bo lost.
"All tho things we have been striv
ing for, tho development of tourist
travel; tho urge to make and koep our
state the most liveable In tho union;
tho deslio to keep our children in
God's own environment, surrounded by
tho beauties to which I hoy are tho true
holrs, all of these will bo surrendered
and lost unless wo act and act prompt
ly." Tho governor disclaimed any Inton-
tion lo deprive private timber owners
of land without legal process. He suld
tho timber men generally wore eager
and willing to coopenito, and citod the
instance of ono large company, the
Crown Wlllaniotto Paper company
which ceased cutting timber along the
Seaside-Cannon llcach highway in
Clatsop county, "and 1 understand," he
added, "is marking time pending the
action of your honorable body."
Tho federal commissioner of Indian
affairs, ho said, has agreed hereafter
in all contracts for logging on Indian
rosorvntioiiB a strip of at least three
hundred feet wldo along highways will
be reserved at all times to continue the
tlmhorcd effects along such roads
passing through tho reservations.

Tho Modfnrd Chamber of Commerce
today Issued the following announce
mont:
Tho thoughtless destruction of trees
and shrubs along tho highways of Ore
gon has reached tho stage whoro It
now becomes necessary for the people
to protest, otherwlso their greatest
asset, tho scenic grandeur ot Oregon,

The Modford Chamber of Commerce
Is tile first commercial organization in
tho stnto to make a constructive effort
to nrosarvo tho scenery of tho stnto in
tho formation of an association to pre
vent further destruction of stalely

A section of the constitution of tho
proposed association is quoted ns
showing tho object of tho organiza
tion: "To nrouso public sentiment

shrubs along tho highways by tho
owners of ranches; to cooperate with
tho supervisor of the Crater Lake na

ATTEMPT TO CLIMB ML EVEREST
NEVER SCALED BY HUMAN BEING
NEW YORK. Mt. Everest, the Him
alayan peak culled "the roof of the
world" which Sir Francis Younghuu
band, the British soldier-explorer, will
attempt to climb next summer, has
never yet been scaled by man.
Towering above the frontiers of the
hitherto forbidden land of Tibet and
the remote province of Nepal, India,
another land of mystery, the difficul
ties In even approaching Mt. Everest
have been sufficient to baffle explor
ers. Tho world's highest peak lies in
Tibet north of the British Indian bor
der, yet, so far as known, no European
lias ever approached nearer than 60
miles from its base and few travelers
have ever seen its upper slopes.
The attempts which have been made
to ascend somo of Mt Everest's sister
peaks of the Himalayas have usuully
been made through Nepal because ac
cess to them through Tibet was not
open. The approach to Mt. Everest
through Tibet Is said to be more acces
sible and present greater prospects of
success than from tho Nepal side.
Sir Francis Yomighusbund announc
ed that the. Tibetan government had
granted ihlni .permission to attempt the
ascent of tho mountain by he Tibetan
route, 7t was) Sir. Francis, who as

VISCOUNT KADO ATTACKS JAPAN
(Continued "rom Fagt One)
own Interests are serloiiBly menaced,
Siberia may yet be far from political
agreement internally and the mainten
ance there of a Japanese army Is
fraught with every danger."
Premier Hara declared that Japan
wanted to evacuate Siberia completely
when the Czecho-Slovnks had been re
patriated, but that Japan's topograph
ical situation bad prevented this while
many ot the Russians were anxious for
the Japanese to remain.
"Thus the withdrawal was delayed,"
said the premier, "but not because of
political ambitions. The government
decided that tho troops would be re
moved us soon as political stability
was restored. Otherwise the Japanese
residents would suffer. After the
Nikoluievsk affair tho trana-Hulkul
troops wero withdrawn but those In
Vladivostok wore retained nftor Japan
hnd received the assent of tho powers.
They will bo withdrawn as soon ns a
proper Russian government is estab
lished. Bayonets No Value
"Bolshevism is spreading over
whelmingly and may reach Japanese
territory. Tho government Is awaro
of the futility of trying to chock boi
shevlsm with bayonets, and realizes it
cannot prevent discontented Koreans
from becoming acquainted with such
doctrine."
Viscount Kato's rejoinder was that
Premier Hara's reply was "far from
satisfactory."
Bnron Sakatani, former finance min
ister, declared that us a result of the
war, all the Russian, rights In Man

to meet today and expodite its work in
order that definite decisions might be
taken before tho close of the confer
ence. Tho general opinion wns developed
in tho council that It wns. useless to
try to do anything for Austria apart
from tho solution of the economic
problems of the neighboring countries,
with which Austria's future is bound
to bo closely connected. The sugges
tion from the Austrian section of the
reparations commissions for nn ad
vance to Austria ot $25,000,000 yearly
for ten years, guaranteed by pledges
on Austria s resources, wns not acted
upon. The tendency Is, It appears, to
reject any proposition likely to Involve
Increased taxation for Franco and

It wns reported that tho Italian gov
ernment hnd sent a note to the council
regarding Smyrna which would be con
sidered in connection with the Greek

lit. Everest named for Sir George
Everest, famous British surveyor gen
eral of India, is the highest known
mountain in the world. Its trigono
metric altitude is 29,002 feet; Its prob
able height Is 29.141 feet. The next
known highest of the Himalayan peaks
are Kinchinjiinga, 28,250 feet and K-2,
or Bride peak, whose altiude is 28,191
feet.
The intrepid Duke of the Abruzzi,
who reached tho top of Mt. St. Eiias
in Alaska (18,024 ftt) and who at one
time held the record of "farthest
north" in Arctic exploration, tried to
climb K-2 or Bride -Peak, in 1909 but
failed because from whatever point of
the compass he advanced he could find
no way up to attain the summit. At
24,600 feet he and his companions
were In good physical condition altho
progress was slow and laborious; a
thick -mist warned them that to go
on "would have been madness.' " This
achievement of the Italian explorer,
however, Is the world's record- tor
mountain climbing. Itrlde Peak is in
tile Kaiakoram Himalayas. Besides it
and Its two higher sister peaks, there
are in tho Himalayas no less than 75
peaks above 24,000 feet, 48 above 25,
000 feet, 1G above 26,000 feet and five
about 27,000 feet.

BIG ADDITION
TO CITY HALL
Work was begun this morning in
preparing the foundation for the big
addition to the city hall building,
-which will parallel the height, width
and length of the present city hall and
which will-rise on the city's vacant
lot immediately adjoining at a cost
not to exceed $(i000.
The new structure was decided
upon by the city council some time
logo and will house the city treasurer
jand city recorder's offices on the
ground floor, a feature which will be
jgladly accepted by all citizens having
j business with these offices. Another
welcome leature win lie me construc
tion in this addition of a commodious
new safety vault department for the
keeping of the many precious c-ity
records.
The need of tills vault to replace
the present meager vault was one of
the rensons which necessitated the
new building. The main other reason
was tho crowded office condition of
the present building. The present
quarters of tho city treasurer and re
corder will, when the addition is com
pleted, bo occupied by the city water
superintendent, city electrician, street
eonimiHsioner, city engineer and all
the other offices which Chas. Davis,
the city poo bah, fills so acceptably.
When the addition is completed the
city hall will have a fifty-foot fiont
ag8 -on Front street, ,and ns now. n
lo6-YTot. length back:to 'the alley.
While tlie addition Wfll be the same
height as the present structure, its
second pooiwill not bej finished until
such tinicj-as ,tho ,'oolinelh jias more
funds at' Its disposal. 's'ri Vails will
have to be constructed for the ad
dition as the wall of the present
structure and that of the brick build
ing on the south will lie used. The
front and rear ends of the addition
will be built of concrete, nnd the
lower front will be enclosed with
plate glass windows.
The work of construction is being
done by day labor with It. I. Stew
art, the well-known contractor in
charge as the city's foreman. The
new structure will be completed and
occupied by spring.
