"Nothing Wrong" Says
Campbell In Polished
Talk at White Pelican
Tells Chamber of Commerce His "Investiga
tion" Here Has Failed to Alter His Previous
Opinion Says More Settlers Needed But
Fails to Advise How They Can Escape Star
vation on Tule Lake Lands With Charges
Loaded by Reclamation Service to $90
an Acre.
On the evening of Saturday, April 11, Hubert Work,
secretary of the interior, made the public statement at a
banquet in his honor that what the government reclama
tion project in Klamath is sadly in need of, is coopera
tion, not an investigation.
On Friday evening, May 29, after a more intensive
study of the Klamath project than his superior, Thomas
E. Campbell, cx-govcrnor of Arizona and chairman of
the board of Survey and Adjustment, disposed of the
trials and tribulations of the Reclamation projects by the
same general statement.
Reclamation of Souls
"Before there can be move Reclamation of land in
Klamath, there must first be a Reclamation of Souls,"
he thundered to an applauding audience at the chamber
of commerce banquet in the White Pelican hotel last
night.
"True it is that this is an empire awakening. But may
I interpose one word. Let it be not only an awakening
to the physical advantages' and opportunities of the
country, but also an awakening to the need of co
operation." '

of the nation be upheld in war as in

out that all heroes were not those
that woro uniforms. He recalled the
strides toward progress and prosper

times.
