!! The commissioners indicated
I they would seek to devise some
i way to determine beneficial use
in order that it may be establish
ed at a ruling principle in the
supply, of water to the farmers.
They expressed belief in the
need for careful use of water in
the basin, despite the abundant
supply about which they talked
in glowing terms.

1 First'' witness of the Tuesday
afternoon session was Warner
Carr, ' ditchrlder in the heavily
settled section of the EID. He
testified that it has been neces
sary to provide more water for
small tracts than the larger
units, "at least three or four
times as much." He said there
was some complaint In his dis
trict due to the fact some users
were' forced to wait for water.
He said further that pipe distri
bution, now partially installed
in the district, would save about
30 per cent of the water.
Next -witness was County
Agent Charles A. Henderson
who, in answer to queries from
Dr. Peterson, said he believes
, farmers of the project are main
taining sufficient organic mat
ter on the soil to provide effi
cient irrigation. To show the sus
tained productivity of the soil,
he pointed out federal figures
which show that in 1925, aver
age potato production here was
101.1 bushels per acre, whereas
in 1940 it was 420 bushels per
acre,
-Enclosed Basin"
Henderson said the project has
never had an- adequate study of
the !,duty of water and that he
feels one should be made for the
benefit of farmers.- -2's.
- - Dr. Peterson said., that , the
Klamath is an "enclosed basin" j
and" danger of water-logging in
udh districts it great. He urged
earajiful use of .water. He also ex
pressed concern about noxious
weeds, and the need for control
of eel worm, ring rot and other
potato diseases. Henderson told

some extent. The EID, -which

small share for that reason, he
said.
Stephens said he believed It
would be advantageous to the
project to have a determination
of beneficial use. He said the
bureau had always provided
water "on demand."
Several Warren act pump con
tractors appeared, all objecting
to excess water charges. These
included John Goldworthy, Wil

GRATER IM
GIVEN STUDY
Recent announcement by
Crater lake park authorities
that private boats will not be
permitted on Crater lake was
discussed by chamber of com
merce directors Wednesday, and
they referred it to the national
parks committee with a sugges
tion the ruling be protested.
It was brought out that local
fishermen have taken boats to
the lake at times when contract
boats are not available. It was
agreed that no one but the Na
tional Park company, however,
should have the right to rent
boats.
Correspondence was read
from the offices of Senators
McNary and Holman relative to
proposals that the Upper Klam
ath lake bird refuge be discon
tinued. They indicated that the
fish and wildlife service do not
look favorably upon this pro
posal. The last legislature
adopted a memorial in favor
of discontinuance.
There was some discussion of
log-hauling . restrictions to 40
hours a week, and their effect
on operations in this territory
where attempts are being made
to build up log supplies against
seasons when hauling for 40
hours a week will not be possi
ble or a supply will not be
available. The problem was
submitted to the industrial de
velopment committee, with the
suggestion it be taken to the
state highway commission.

He says: .
"Labor has far more to gain
from price stability than from
abnormal wage increases, for
these are likely to bo illusory
and quickly overtaken by sharp
rises in living costs which (all
with particular hardship on the
least fortunate of our workers
and our old people."
UIS statement that abnormal
wage increases will result In
sharp rises in living costs is an
admission that a price ceiling
won't work without a wage ceil
ing. He thus places a big respon
sibility on labor, which will be
judged in the years to come by
the way it acts under this load
of responsibility.
NOTED ARTIST TO
APPEAR AT CHURCH
Elmer Gandy, known through
out the United States and Can
ada as one of the top ranking
pastel artists of the day, is be

far north assisting in, the estab
lishment of a new Church of the
Nazarene in Fairbanks. In his

Rev. Gandy is not only a cap

tze river from the capital.
Several bombs were loosed by
tho raiders over the river pa
trol gunboat, a navy spokesman
said, and the stern superstruc
ture of the small vessol was
damaged slightly.
The navy source stated his be
lief that the damage to the Unit
ed States ship was incidental to
the genoral raid on the Chinese
capital city, although the ves-
sel was in the so-called safety
area across the river.
A small outboard motorboat
belonging to the Tutuila was
shattered, it was announced,
and some other equipment on
the dock nearby was reported
damaged.
The Tutuila narrowly escaped
bombs which fell in the Amort
can safety zone in Chungking
on June 15, leading to a strong
United States protest to Japan.
At that time several bombs
fell in the vicinity of the Amer
ican embassy at Chungking and
near the Tutuila.
Japanese naval officials said
the June bombing In the Amerl
can zone was unintentional.
Reports to the naval opera'
tions bureau on the new inci
dent did not state whether the
gunboat, which accommodates a
normal crew of 58 officers and
men, returned fire upon the
Japanese aircraft.
Another vessel of the river
patrol, the Panay, was sunk by
Japanese action on December
12. 1937, with the loss of two
lives.
WASHINGTON. July 30 VP)-
A belief that Japan was forced
by limited land and air power to
adopt a waiting, opportunistic
course in the far east was ex
pressed today In official govern'
ment quarters.
On the basis of detailed infor
mation on rival forces lined up
in the Orient, authoritative offi
cials said the Japanese remain
heavily outnumbered by the so
viet armies In the north, and
face considerable obstacles In
any movo southward from Indo-
China.
These government officials
who refused to permit use of
their names, outlined to news
men this view of the far eastern
situation: -
Despite substantial recent
withdrawals of soviet troops and
planes to fight the nazt invasion
In the west. Russian forces in the
far east were estimated to in
clude some 40 divisions, whereas
Japan was believed to have
available in Manchuria and Kor
ea only about 14.
The Japanese air force was es
timated altogether at about 3600
planes, largely outmoded. Rus
sian far eastern air forces were
put at about 2400. prior to with
drawals to the fighting front
west of Moscow.
