In answer to an invitation, pre-.

number Of recommendations, the
adoption Of which they believe would
be beneficial to the project and to

Though the recommendations filed
cover many pages the three principal
requests made were as follows:

Some Disappointment.

Though full OF confidence in the
possibilities of the Umatilla project
and sure that the $4,000 acres near
Hermiston will some day be one great
valley of orchards and gardens, the
members of the party at Hermiston
yeterday did not conceal the fact that
some disappointment is felt over the
seeming slowness with which the pro-
ject is being settled and developed,
Expressions indicating this sentiment
were made by members of the sena-
torial party, and also by Director F.
II. Newell.
Compared with other governmental
projects OF equal age the Umatilla
project is backward in settlement and
development, according to the chief
of the service. He attributes this sit
uation largely to the chickering's that
have ensued between rival factions
in Hermston; to tendency on the
part of some landowners to ask too
