W. Davis, who was supposed to come here and make an in vestigation into the sale of the Keno and Ankeny canals, and other matters, made no such invest'.tion ; that he came here two days ahead of his announced date and that the fact that he was here was not known until after he had left That if the people had had an opportunity to present the facts to him in dn open hearing, we believe he would have recommended a cancellation of the sale and restored the power sites to the people. -- We want an investigation into the so-called Dent Stoutmeyer report. We believe it will be shown that no f ormal hearing was held ; that it is full of misstatements and untruths and that the voice of the majority of the people of the project, expressed at the Henley school house, was suppressed and that the representations of a hand-picked delegation was used as the basis upon which the. report rests. We believe when you are ac quainted with the facts connected with this report you will have an insight into the rottenness of Reclamation Service politics and the dishonest methods that have been practiced to keep your predecessors in ignorance of the true fiate of affairs on this and other projects in the west, and that you will summarily dismiss the gentlemen who made this report. You are surrounded by your enemies men who will not stop at anything to keep you from ascertaining the real facts and poison your mind against the men who have been and are now hammering at the door of your department for justice for the people on reclamation projects. . , ' We believe the investigation will show that the local Reclamation Service permitted the level of Klamath lake to be lowered approximately six feet below the safety point. If we had another dry year, there would not be enough to cany us through another irrigation sea- . son, according to men well versed in such matters. When protest was made, it wiil be shown that the gates of the dam were closed, but the water was run down the main canal and then turned into Lost river, through which it was returned to the Klamath river for the use of the . Power company. Doubtless you will be told that those who are asking for this investigation are radicals bolshevists, who rep resent nothing and nobody. The men who are protesting are among the most conservative, prosperous and pro gressive citizens of the project. They are simply asking justice for themselves and their neighbors. If you have , any doubt as to whether the people are back of the state ments made in this article, we are prepared to have them indorsed by the signatures of a large majority, of .the water users and will do so at your request, i , , '.; '.. We would ask that on your visit ' here you be not turned aside from an exhaustive investigation of recla mation conditions on this project by the same influences that have sidetracked every other investigation. We know that similar efforts are to be put forth, but we rely upon your promise to the board of directors of the Irrigation District to give them your time first and to others afterward. . . : . Space and your time will not permit ' further state ments arid accusations. We believe that those set forth are sufficient to 'justify our mvesugaiion. we Know ve are ngtn and we also know that when the investigation is concluded you will have learned first-hand what is the real trouble with the Reclamation Service and be in a position to cany into effect a house cleaning that will, for a time at. least, correct some of the conditions that have brought the Service to the brink of absolute failure, BATES .

'"''1 '4 -CUM Furs, when beaatlfnlly combined, afford the most beautiful and lux urious ot evening wraps. Particu larly effective are these combina tions when white ermine Is the foundation. Corinne Griffith has chosen wrap of real charm and distinction to wear In several of the scenes from her newest First National 01m, "Declasse." It combinoi white ermine and chinchilla with remark able results. Tlio pastel shades which aro so much the vorus now along the Riviera and at Palm Doach, prom ise to become the spring's favorites for tho formal gowns for tho the atre and dance. These delicate colors are ' most elfoctlve when worn benoath a wrap ot fur or er mine, or ermine and chinchilla.
