INTERVENTION OF
RUSSIA BY ALLIES
Believes Expedition Would
Unite Factions Opposed
to Bolsheviki.

LONDON. June 27.-Kerensky de-
clared in an interview that there are
definite indications that Russia will
speedily re-establish order aiding the
allies, reorcating the east front and
abolishing Bolshevikism.
Kerensky's dramatic appearance
raised many questions concerning his
future and his connection with the al
lied policy toward Russia. The Mail
said the government did not invite
Kerensky to England, but he asked
the right of asylum" as a private ci-
tizen. The mail continued. However
II Is wondered whether or not Keren-
sky brought an invitation for allied in
from the Russian moderate
socialists"
1t is reliably reported that Kerensky
favors Intervention by all the allies
even though one country furnishes
most OF the troops. Kerensky believes
such an expedition would be fighting
Germany while not interfering with
Russian internal affairs. He believes
allied Intervention will unite the pres
ent warning factions opposed to Boil

WASHINGTON. June 27.-Furthee
evidence that Germany intends TO
send its fleet against the British and
American Grand Fleet, Is given in
an official dispatch today from swift
zerland.
"A telegram Of an official nature"
il says, lis being spread broadcast In
Germany. which says that the Ger
man admiralty Is considering a bin
naval offensive. Orders are supposed
TO have been given to keep the whole
fleet in readiness and certain num-
Ter of naval Officers OF high rank
have been recalled from Switzerland
and other neutral countries, where
they have been spending their leaves
The Keller zeitung speaks Of ex-
traordinary activity in the ports and
the Hamburger Post publishes an In
terview with Won Tirpitsz. who was
asked If Germany was in a position
to measure herself with the English
fleet The admiral naturally replied
in the affirmative. saying that after
their land forces had pushed the
French and English back on ihe other
side of Paris il will he the turn Of the
kaiser's boats TO drive the English Oft

AIRSHIP ACCIDENTS
TO Be INVESTIGATED
Senators to Consider In
struction of Flyer From
All Angles.

WASHINGTON. June 27.-The
many accidents that occur in teaching
aviators for the American military
service will be made a feature of the
aircraft investigation by the senate
committee on military affairs.
The subcommittee, Senators Thorn
as, New, Frelinghuysen, Reed and
Smith of Georgia. desire to learn just
how and why the mishaps occur.
whether or not the airplanes are top
heavy. Of faulty construction, of in
ferior make, or unsuitable types,
whether the motors are of sufficient
power, the control adequate, the ma
terials used in construction of the
most approved kind and whether or
not there has been any criminal tam
pering by spies or pro-Germans.
The question of instruction will be
considered from all angles. 1t will be
inquired whether the unfortunate avi-
ators are sent up too soon on own
responsibility, whether there is indif-
ference in this respect, whether the
practice fields are too crowded or the
climate is calculated to interfere with
the best work of the airplane.
Deaths alone from accidents on AM
erican aviation fields average about
five week.

SAVE RIVER FROM
CONTAMINATION AT
BINGHAM SPRINGS

By action of the Commercial Asso-
citation managers taken at noon to-
day 1t is suggested that the city
council and water board take steps
TO remedy any menace to the city wa
ter supply through refuse going into
the river at Bingham Springs. 1t was
announced to the board by j. r. Ril>
ley. former city attorney, that the city
has absolute authority over the river
to its source for the protection of the
water supply. The move is one of
importance in view of the fact water
is now being taken direct from the
river at Thorn Hollow.
Echo Road.
The complaint over road conditions
to the west end of the county was al.
so before. the board and the roads
committee. headed by c. p. a. Lon.
ergan, was instructed to take action
to get the subject before the county
court with a view to having a road
placed in passable condition.

BELIEVE U-BOATS
COME IN RELAYS

WASHINGTON, June 27.-The at
tack on the British steamer Keemun
has convinced some officials and ma
val experts hat u boats are coming
To this side In relays,
II was stated emphatically at the
navy department late today that ne
cessary traffic is not being kept in
our ports by the presence Of subma-
rines. Coastwise traffic Is moving.
Light draught vessels are proceeding
on their usual runs, hugging the shore
and thus keeping out of reach of the
U-boats. while heavier draught boats
ore being conveyed.
Transatlantic service continues
without a let-up. Some delay may oc-
cur In arranging conveys. but this IS
largely the normal condition.
The state department has not re-
ceIved confirmation Of the Exchange

morning. announcing that Germany
has declared or will declare the en-
tire Atlantic coast barred zone. Ger

RIVER WATER IS BEING USED
AT THORN HOLLOW OWING TO
DELAY IN CONSTRUCTION WORK
More Men and NeuU Foreman Viii be
Employed on Job to Rush Work; Ample
Supply Water NoU at Hand But Quail
ity Not as Good as Formerly

to the quality as the river l. not as
springs.
Work Goes Slowly.
An inspection of the situation at
Thorn Hollow was made this morning
by a delegation consisting of Mayor
| Vaughan. Councilmen Murphy. Phelps
! ELL, Taylor. Kirkpatrick, Penland
Water Commissioner c. p. Strain and
Il. B. Aldrich, editor of the East Ore
gonian.
Between Thorn Hollow n nd the
Chaplish spring there is an interme-
diate spring that can be utilized as
soon as the pipe line can be laid
thereto. The pipe laying is more than
half done to this spring but there is
much construction work yet TO be
done before this water will he avail
able. Mr. Hayes believes he can
reach this water by July Is.
1t was the concensus Of opinion on
the part of the investigators this NOR
ming that an insufficient crew has
been employed on the work and that
Mr. Hayes has not had sufficient help
in supervision work. 1t was suggest
ed that HAPPY" Day be secured as
a foreman and that additional labor
ers be secured at once. An effort is
being made to get more workmen
from Portland and Mr. Day is to be
enlisted in the work IL available.
Apparently those in charge of af-
fairs have been proceeding cautious
ly with their WORK on grounds of
economy and have not been driving
the work with the force and speed
the needs OF the city demands. These
shortcomings now seem in line to be
oveTrorne- burt the season is so late
that there is possibility that the
Chaplish springs water may be reach
ed too late to do any good this sum-
mer. However. the expediting of the
work may yet save the day and there
by give the city a good water supply
without using the river.

COUNCIL VOTES TO
CONTINUE LICENSE

Mrs. Searcy will retain her license
t. conduct the Florence rooming
house at 500 Cottonwood street. was
the decision of the Pendleton city
council at the meeting last evening.
At the meeting of the city fathers
last week the recorder was ordered to
notify Mrs. Searcey to appear at the
meeting last evening to show reason
why her license to conduct room
ing house should not be revoked and
bv a vote of three to four 1t was de-
cided to leave the license stand as it
is. The council deemed the evidence
presented was insufficient to Justify
taking adverse action.
Ten days ago In the recorders court
Mrs Searcy was fined $50. charged
with conducting a bawdy house.

Owing to delay In extending the
water main at Thorn Hollow to the
chaplish springs, three miles beyond,
f. has become necessary to turn water
from the river into the north unit of
the project and this is now being
done. The above announcement by
the chairman Of the water board is
the first acknowledgements made to
the public by the water board. Those
desiring 10 do so may boil the water
before drinking It or otherwise treat
IL.
The shortage OF water last night
was due to the fact the north unit
was shut off yesterday owing TO the
mudied condition of the river. When
-nrws reachgcf- f1inl7 Of the shortage
here superintendent Hayes reopened
the north unit and the increased sup
ply is now filling the reservoirs, With
