COPCO ATTACKED BY LOUD CANNON (Continued From rape One) Thousands Clamor 'For Floor Space In Big Elks Hop TKlalnath Falls-has been hit by a deluge of Indian blankets in all con ceivable colors, from cerise to sky ' pink, and in fantastic designs that baffle description. The. occasion being a Pendleton Woolen Mills blanket drawing event, sponsored by the local Elks lodge.' Every local lodge member has been handed one or more blanket books containing Tjchances each, to bo- disposed of at from lc to 35c per. And there are no blanks in the scheme, as a dance ticket ac companies each chance as a defin ite consideration. There are two blankets given out with each book. According to.C. S. Currin, exulted ruler of the lodge,: this dance ticket stunt has brought up a serious com plies liuu that will require the study of -the most versatile heads in the lode to arrive at a solution.

DM rlct Knitlneor In building up his report Engi neer Lamm took the Klamath coun try from the beginning just a-J though t-ld Chief Sohonchin. or some other high chief of the early tribes had handed it over In Its virgin state, he -then proceeded to build up the dams, canals and power plants In mythical perfection ac couuting the detailed cost of each on completion, the total Investment, operating costs, and rates for which power could be manufactured in the end. It was generally agreed to be a most comprehensive and complete report and at the close of its read ing by the author. Chairman Camp bell took occasion to compliment Mr. Lamm on the form ot his re port and the pleasant and alert manner of his testimony. Following the engineering re port Attorney J. II. Carnahan open ed his carefully prepared case against the sale of the Ankeny and Keno canals with attendant power rights to the California Oregon Power company, date of April, 1923. The attorney took up the history of the project from its in ception and all details leading up to the final sale of the properties. He pointed out that there was most active opposition to the sale and that a committee sent here by the department of the Interior to investigate the claims of the ob jectors, kept under cover, and that there were other acts of an irregular nature in connection with the trans fer of this property. "If this con tract had I' birth in fraud. It is the duty of the United States courts to bring a suit in equity to sec the transfer of these valuable holdings ot the government and the district aside," Carnahan said, and it is the purpose of this hearing to submit evidence to establish fraud in the transaction. Meeting Concluded Mr. Gocdwln asked it the power rights were restored, would the dis trict have the legal right to dev elop powerT Mr. Carnahan said he thought if, vouldj The charter of the old "water users" organization was introduced, its articles tending to show that the organization had the Tights to develop power." A hold over meeting was held to a late hour last night in the hopes of rushing the hearing to a conclusion a far as testimony Is uineerned. by m.on today. At the night session a great mass of re ports and documents bearing on the history rf the sale of tho two runals was read and lutroduced into the reoords. One of the most interest ing documents waa a letter written by ex-senator (leorge E, Chamber lain to John H. Payne, thvn sec retary of the interior, in which Mr. Chamberlaiu objected very stren uously to the utilizing of I'pper Klamath waters for power purposes In any sense of tho word. In this letter Chamberlain said in his opinion the Oregon legislature would never have permitted tho building of the Link river dam had they known power development waa to be placed ahead of irrigation. Medics Disapprove ' Of Attempts To Bar The Teaching Of Evolution ATLANTIC CITY. N. J., May !S. Tho American medical profession has registered Its disapproval of at tempts to prevent tho teaching ot evolution -ia American -achoula,- - After two days of consideration Local Phone Office Has Window Display The local office of the Pacific ! Telephone and Telegraph company :haa an Interesting poster display in their window, showing why tele, 'pluiuea work In all climates. Tele phones must voice the words that people speak, and people live in Ice hound lands, under the humid heat 'of the tropics, or where tho air Is 'desert dry. In such corners of the earth human lielugs run withstand , the rigors of tho-climate. Things 'ol metal or fibre, may fall, but tele 'phonos must not. That they may 'endure, Western Electric subjects its telephone products to tests even moro exacting than those imposed by service or nature.

Horg' ii replied that the Farm and HoMuv. no.v in the region of King's ray, ;itz', rgen, would continue patroiliug the northern waters un til six weeks from the date of Amundsen's departure, in the belief that the explorers might come to ward the edge of the ice. After that period, if no trace has been found of Amundsen, it will be assumed that he has proceeded to ward Cape Columbia. On that as sumption, tho ships would return to their base. Lieut. Horgon advised that two naval airplanes lie employed to re connoiter from the edge of tho ice toward the pole. At a meeting of the Norwegian Airplane society today, it was urged that Norway must be the first coun try to Rend relief to Amundsen. The members decided, however, that Mac.Mlllan would be asked to as sist In the rescue operations. While he is on t lie lookout on tho Colum bia region, the Norwegians will Bcarch for Amundsen from the di rection of Spitzbergen, where a re lief expedition Is ready to leave on a day's notice. The aeronautic society recalled, however, that before his start, Am undsen earnestly ndviced against re lief operations.
