Senator Smoot of Utah is chairman of this committee in the senate and Con gressman Hawley of Oregon is rank ing member of the ways and means committee in the house. The committees on public lands, which consider all legislation for the protection, utilization and disposi tion of the government lands. Is very important to Oregon and the western states, where nearly all of the remaining public domain Is lo cated. Senator Stanfield is chair man of this committee In the senate and Congressman SInnott of Oregon in the house. The committee on civil service handles all bills referring to the classification, compensation, work ing conditions and retirement of fed eral employees. Senator Stanfield was chairman of this committee dur ing the last session and is now rank ing member, having relinquished the chairmanship to accept the chair manship of public lands. West Is In Power The committee on postoffices and post roads considers all bills affect-1 ing the postal rates and service and the working conditions and compen sation of the employes in the mail service. Senator Stanfield is a mem ber of this committee. When he was put on it In 1921 be was num ber ten; now he Is number four.

Senator McNary s chairman of the committee on Irrigation and rec lamation (very Important to Oregon and the semi-arid western slates); fanning member of the committee on agriculture and forestry (which handles the appropriations for high ways for the department of agricul ture which includes the appropria tions for highways, forest roads and trans, national parks, etc., in addi tion to general legislation affoctlng agriculture and forestry); ranking memDer or tho committee on man ufacturers, and number three on luuiiuiuee on commerce, of which Senator Jones of Washington is the doubtedly make his way rapidly. Such a delegation in congress, working in full accord and harmony as they do, will soon make Oregon an outstanding state In shaping and directing federal legislation. It would take new men, even though blessed with exceptional abil ity, many, many years to secure such powerful committee assignments as the Oregon members now hold, it indeed, they could ever get places of such vital Importance to Oregon and the west.
