Corvallis Has no
Control Over Any
Part Of River Bed

Regardless of the fact that the eor-
porate limits of the city of Corvallis
extend to the middle of the william
cite river and the further fact that
these boundaries were established by
the state Legislature, the city does not
control the bed of the stream and the
sand and gravel contained therein. This
is the gist of an opinion prepared by
Attorney General Brown in reply to an
inquiry from T.. r. Wilson, city attor-
ney of Corvallis, who, in his letter. de
clared that the city was proceeding up
on the assumption that the city held
the exclusive right to the use of that
portion of the river contained within
the city held the exclusive right to the
use of that portion of the river con-
tanned within the city limits including
the sand and gravel rights.
The state legislature could have
granted this right to the city of Cor
wallis, Browns opinion states, but it
has not done so. Consequently the right
remains vested in the state.
Under the law of 1920 under which
sand and gravel companies must Sc
cure permission from the state before
operating in navigable streams, Brown
states, the state is granting leases not
only within the corporate limits Of cit.
les and towns but within the limits of
ports as well.

Washington, Apr. 3.-Federal dis
trict attorneys were instructed today
by Attorney General Palmer to receive
and consider complaints of profiteer-
ing in bituminous coal (which may
arise in your district under the Lever
act"
Mr. Pa!mer's telegram was prepared
after some bituminous coal operators
had stated publicly that the new wage
scale agreed on under the terms of the
award by the coal strike settlement
commission would result in an increase
of from 60 cents to s1.25 a ton on
coal
Pointing out that the total Increase
in wages had been estimated at ap-
proximately $20O,000.000 year, Mr.
Palmer said that if this entire amount
were added by the operators to the
price, it would only make an increase
Of forty cents ton."
"If, however, the operators absorb
the A per cent increase granted in De-
cember," said the attorney general.
there win be left only $4,000, 900 to
be passed on to the consumer In this
event the increase in the price of coal
st the mine should amount to 20 cents
g ton"
Mr.. Palmer said he understood OPP
orators had estimated the demand ~,
export coal would be 100000, 900 tons
but that port facilities are only ade-
quate for the expectation of 10000, 900
tons per annum. This. he said should

Turks Shocked by
Wilson's $ Demand
They Quit Europe

Constantinople, Apr 1.-Presiden,
Wilson'S note to the allies intlmating
that the Turks must get out of Europe
came as a shock to all Turkish parties.
Mr. Wilson'S note appeared in a
slightly censored form which made the
position of the United States seem
harsher than it appeared in the full
text of the communication.
The note was equally displeasing to
the Greeks, who were much offended
at the American presidents apparent
unwilingness to grant their claims to
a large district about Smyrna and his
insistence that Adrianople be given to
the Bulgarians.
American business men here are APP
prehensiye over the effect of the presi-
dents stand and there is considerable
'unessiness as to the effect 1t will have
in Asiatic Turkey where 500 American
born teachers and relief workers are
considered to be in considerable dar-
ger if the protection of Turkish forces
should be withdrawn.

The commission made no recommen-

to take the mandate first, with Great

The principal arguments advanced

a mandate were that the influence of

wars, that the inhabitants wanted
American protection and that this
would give the United States an op-
oortunity TO do great humanitarian
