Beach is now finished. 1t is of
elegant style and it will be one
of the most beautiful seaside
homes in Oregon. The location
is ideal. 1t overlooks the Pacific

just where the Megginson and

Having failed to receive word
from Washington with regard
to the program outlined for the
improving of the Yaquina Bar,
with funds derived from the sale
of the bonds of the Port Of To-

Commissions decided to indefi-

Der of sealed bids were received.
Whenever assurance is re-

the Federal Government is ready

will be sold. Until that time ar
rives nothing of a definite ma
ture can be accomplished.

HAWlEY FIGHTS IN VAIN
FOR OREGON PROJECTS

Washington, June. 2.7-Con-
gresham Hawley yesterday
made spirited but unsuccessful
effort in the house to have the
rivers and harbors bill amended
by adding $975,000 for continu~
ing the north jetty work at the
mouth of the Columbia. He con-
tended that the discontinuance
of the work one season would
depreciate the value of the work
already done to the extent of
100000. BY a close vote the
house rejected the amendment
and also rejected the Hawley
amendments to adopt the Coos
bay and Yaquina projects.-Tel-

records both for daily and
monthly production. On Satur-

3,496 cars, and for the entire
month the aggregate production
was S3,616 cars-and still tho
demand for this popular motor
car continues far ahead OF pro-

OF "saturation" Is still far distant
