commission 1b permitted to clow any
stream, with the exception of the
Columbia river, at any time contin
ued commercial work Is deemed det
rimental to re-stocking by natural
means.
Action of the commission rendered
null and void effects of the cannery
Interests to Invoke a referendum by
presenting to state officials a suffic
ient mimber of signatures on a peti
tion. The petitions already are in
circulation.
The state legislature twice before
had voted to close the Rogue, but
earn time in a state-wide referendum
the issue has been defeated.
Kncls Long Controversy
Sportsmen and tourist facility of
ficials of southwestern Oregon again
were successful In securing an ad
verse legislative vote to commercial
work this year, but because another
new measure prohibiting the hiring
of men to get signers on petitions
also did not carry an emergency
clause and thus was not operative
until June 12. sponsors of the closed
stream have been fearful cannery in
terests would be successful once more
In thwarting the desire of the legis
lators. Action of the fish commissioner,
however, formally takes from the
rolls of controversial subjects one of
the most bitterly contested measures
of recent years.
Only a few weeks ago. spokesmen
for sports organizations on the up
per Rogue threatened to Invoke a
state-wide referendum on the meas
ure which abolished tolls on the five
Oretron coast highway bridges unless
similar groups along the coast align
ed themselves solidly against com
mercial fishing on the Rogue. Such
action, however, was found futile
when a survey showed the greater
majority of coast organizations al
ready firmly opposed to the referen
dum to keep the stream open.
My Fill Petitions
Just how far petitions to halt the
closure order had progressed was not
ascertained here today, but previous
Indications were that a stiff lcient
number of signers probably would be
obtained.
Varying figures, some showing the
annual commercial catch greatly de
pleted and others showing little
change, were presented at the leg
islature by sportsmen and cannery
Interests. It was to decide which con
tention is correct by a prolonged
study of actual conditions that the
fish commission placed the stream,
at least temporarily, outside the cat
egory of commercial interests.
Hoy declared the proper legal steps
could not be tnken to close the
nogue before June 12. He estimated
at least 21 days would be consumed
In posting notices along the stream,
publishing Information In newspa
pers and filing the complete data
with the county clerk In each coun
ty concerned.
" Chief among the contentions of
opponents to commercial fishing has
been that in former years scores of
Callfornians, including Hollywood
movie stars, had made annual pil
grimages to the Rogue, but that re
cently their catches had been too
small to warrant return trips. Sports
men contend the Rogue is one of the
greatest attractions for tourists on
the Oregon coast highway.
Two Cnnnerlps at Mouth
Two canneries have been In oper
ation at the mouth of the Rogue for
several years, and about 50 boats
have been utilized In making the
seasonal catches.
Information from the fish com
mission, of which John C. Veatch of
Portland Is chairman, indicated to
day that there could be no outright
five-year closure effected, since a
change In the personnel of the com
mission might result in new tactics.
However, with Chinook cycles ex
tending from four to five years it was
believed advisable to seek a closure
for that period in order to properly
study conditions on the stream.
Had the fish commission not taken
such action and had the Issue been
thrown open aeain to referendum
prior to June 12 when the legisla
tive closure wm to become operative,
the R"gue would have remained
open at leant until the next general
election in 1936.
Accidents occurring to Milwaukee
city employs In 1934 ranged from

who ail but strangled himself on ft

TEACHER'S DEATH
ACCiDENl BELIEF
McMTNNVILIJS, Ore., May 16.
f AP The theory of accidental drown
ing gained more or less general cre
dence today as police and friends of
the family continued their investiga
tion into the death of Miss Florence
Groth, 31, Lafayette grade school
teacher, whose body was found Tues
day tn the Yamhill river.
Sheriff George W. Manning and
Sergeant Grenfell of state police said
they believed, alter a new Investiga
tion, the girl had accidentally fallen
from a brldce. The sheriff and the
coroner earlier had inclined to the
suicide theory.
The family of the girl has expressed
belief that Miss Groth was killed by
thieves who raided the Groth moor
age; that she recognized them and
that she was knocked from the boat
landing into the stream when she
surprised the raiders. A bruise such
as might have been caused by a blow
from a fist, was found on the girl's
temple.
