(Continued From Pago Our)
f ornia Oregon Power company all of the power and
. water rights appurtenant to the project
- We believe that the investigation will show that the
reason 250,000 acres of land in this project is not now,
i under irrigation is due to the fact that it would require
all of the water that now goes down the Klamath river,
an event that would make of little value the investments
of the California Oregon Power company and may ac
count for their peculiar activities in the affairs of the
Klamath Project. .. v
, We believe the investigation will show that D. 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,

A Wrap of Distinction
Corinne Griffith Combines

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.
But the charm ot this typo ot cov
ering Is that vivid tonee are usual
If well chosen to wenr boncath It,
The lining of tho fur wrap, of
course, Is Important, and Paris has'
seen to It that the wraps of. true
distinction are lined Id the most
' gorgeous ot silks, plain and em-

and that for this purpono wo need

Tho Chamber of Commerce replies
to this that they urn tho Klamuth

therefore, they muet have a comnill

that this committee must be repre
