STATE WILL TRY FOR
MORE RECLAMATION

Agitation lis again under way from
the state chamber of commerce to get
just proportion of the reclamation
money appropriated to Oregon. This
state contributed $1O,97t,69S from the
sale of public lands and the govern
ment turned back $4,44S,5S5 as ex-
penditure for reclamation work in
oregon. This means that oregon re-
ceived but Al per cent of the total
contributed.
While the law providing for a vir-
tual 100 per cent return by the gov
eminent reclamation service has been
changed, oregon still feels that there
Is moral obligation existing, which
will provide for the expenditure of the
remaining S6.500,0a0. The report OF
the state chamber points out thai
Oregon is the only western state which
did not get 100 per cent or more re-
turn. and is renewing the campaign
to have the funds. returned by renew
ed reclamation work ON the part of

planting they ask an additional $3,-

Marion Jack and John Balm are
plaintiffs in a similar suit, in which
they ask for s5.232 damages. Their
fields, after being resown with good
seed yielded 20 bushels, to 81 bushels

PARIS. April 9.-The peace confer
ence, 1t was declared In certain off
ciaI quarters, has today reached a
stage where there are just two alter
natives-ear1y agreement or wreck.
The period in which continued pro-
tracted discussion is possible has pass
ed. according to authoritative fnfor-

every act and every delegate carries
an implied .'ultimatum' on his lips.
The limit of physical endurance Is
beginning to manifest itself. For days
there has been quibbling over details.
One person in authority today de-
clAred the conferees are agreed on tho
principles of the main issues but that
constant dragging in of details has
caused endless consideration on every
subject with the result that the "con-
ference has degenerated into a scran~
BILE for individual desires. A portion
of the French press is apparently pre-
pairing to place the responsibility for
delay upon President Wilson. La
Liberte openly declares the British
and French are in agreement and that
1t only remains for Wilson TO approve
decisions the "hig four" reached DUR
ing his illness and American dele
gates have been totally unable 10, find

plainly evident that the spirit of tho

fort to effect an agreement on tho

WILSON DOES NOT,
SEE SETTLEMENT
BY CARL d. GRoAT.

PARIS, April 9.-Despite British
and French assertions that peace set
tlement is practically completed, II
was stated semi-officially today that
President Wilson does not agree that
that's the case, His position is said to
he. that the conference must return
to the IA principles of the arIhistice
terms which he feels have been disre-
garded lately. II is emphati tically de-
c!ared that Wilson will quit the CON
ference only as a last resort.
Ordering the George Washington to
Brest does not necessarily mean he is
quitting but IL was repeated he will
return home "if necessary" Persons
close to Wilson added there is no
threat or bluff in this statement but
that he is fully prepared to "mak-
good"
Summed up, the presidents posi-
ton is that of letting his colleagues
know that a grab all, policy is not
tcnablc and that peace must soon be
made that will be just and honest.
