FORMER LOCAL. MEN
FIGHT FOR BONDS

Chas. Hall and James 4. Montgom-
cry, now respectively president and
manager and commercial superihtend.
ent of the Coos & Curry Telephone Co.
at Marshfield, are given unstinted
praise for their work during the past
several weeks for the bond issue for
good roads in Coos county. The issue
was carried by heavy majority.
The Coos Bay Times, telling Of the
election, says:
1t is great satisfaction to those
who were IN the heated race for good
roads bonds to see the issue carry by
such good majority, as 1t leaves a
better feeling than IL the election had
been close. There is only one story
to the result-the country generally
went against it but the cities pulled
the plum from the Goals.
President Charles Hall, Of the Coos
County Good Roads Association, has
worked night and day on tile campaign
and to him is the credit due for the
fine organization of forces. His aide,
j. E. Montgomery, attended all but
two or three of the meetings held in
the county and the Golden West quar-
tet helped wonderfully. The work of
the campaigners showed up surprising
ly in some precincts where the good
roads bonds two years ago got scarcely
vote. Changes were made of from
10 to 35 votes where before the places
were almost solidly AGAR at bonding.
However, all give Frank Terrace
credit for winning the campaign for
good roads and his work was lauded to
the skies when the good roads advo-

structiOn Of Highway to Noun
tain Body Of Water

In photographers window in Hood
River, Portland or some other north
western city you may have seen a pic
ture of Mount Hood from the north
west corner of Lost Lake. 1t may be
that you have one of these unsurpass-
able views hanging on the walls of
your own home. You may have looked
at the photographs and passed remarks
expressing your admiration. So much
for the mere inanimate picture.
But have you ever been to Lost
Lake? No. Well, you ought to visit
that scenic mountain body of water,
glimpse in its cystal depths the mir
rored snowcap of Oregon's guardian
peak, old Mount Hood, and then join
that little band of boosters for an auto
mobile road to the virgin forests
around the lake. The man who has
sat on Lost Lakes shores and pondered
over the beauties he can see there will
never forget it. You may soon lose
from your mind an impression made by
a sight of the photograph Of this COM
munity, but never can you erase the
impressions printed deep from an ac-
tual contact with the handiwork of old
Mother Nature herself.
The above is the gist of some of the
expressions made at conference held
last week between local men and T. h.
Sherrard. state forest supervisor, and
w. T. Andrews, a logging engineer of
the United States forestry department,
relative to the choice of route to
Lost Lake. The government men re.
aiize the asset Lost Lake will be to
Hood River county. once it is access
ible, and the forestry service is ready
to assist in building road to the point.
The two above named men were here
last week for the purpose of stimulat-
ing interest among Hood River people
In the Lost Lake region.
The government is contemplating the
sale of $50, 900, 900 feet of timber in
the Lost Lake region on the West Fork
of Hood river. Under existing laws 35
per cent of the returns from this sale
will be available for road building IN
Hood River county. Thus excellent
highways should penetrate the forests
on the shores of Lost Lake.
The Oregon Lumber Co. holds pat
ented land, timber land, around Lost
Lake. A bill, introduced by Congress
man Macarthur, is now before congress
providing for the transfer of this tim
ber land for timber in some other part
of the forest reserve. The lumber
company is fostering the bill. Chas.
T. Early, manager of the company, is
willing to 60 further and evidence his
good faith. and is willing to execute
surety bonds that will prevent the de-
struction of the timber around the
lake.

MAYOR ALBEE Is
HOOD RIVER BOOSTER

Mayor H. R. Albee, of Portland. who
slipped quietly away from his official
duties for vacation last week, has
been located at the ranch home of Mrs.
F. C. House on the West Side. Mayor
and Mrs. Albee motored up from Port
land over the Columbia river highway
Although they have been here sine last
Friday, il was not learned until yes
terday by the general public that they
were in the valley.
Mayor Albee is decidedly Hood
River booster. 81 have never seen con-
ditions looking better nor the orchards
in finer condition." he says. Hood
River is on the up grade, and the Co.
lumbia river highway is proving to be
a huge asset for you. ] don't think
you can realize just what it means to

next session sees fit to pass laws that
will provide for the state taking over

A series of meetings will be held in
the fruit growing districts of southern
Oregon, the Willamette valley, Hood
River and as far as La Grande in east
ern Oregon, explaining the government
plan of marketing to the orchardists.
The government plan provides for
the marketing of fruit according to the
clearinghouse plan through the Fruit
Growers Agency, Inc. Selling agents
will develop foreign and Canadian
market as we'll as the market of the
east and local organizers will direct the
community problems and direct the
physical handling Of the crop to obtain
the best quality of fruit and univer-
sal form pack and grade.
Efforts will be made to standardize
the inspection laws and all possible le-
gal and bank arrangements will be
made to finance the grower in such q
way that he will not lose title to bis
crop.
According to the government experts
who have devised the plan, it will be
necessary for the most successful oper.
alton of the clearinghouse system to
have the assurance of handling from 75
to 85 per cent of the tonnage.
The plan of campaign outlined by
the Office of Markets include the ex.

the specialists will during the first
weeks of June visit the Willamette
