The central station in this new
field is at Edea, and there are eight
substations. A population Of many
hundreds of thousands is included
In the district. Rev. Mr.. Neal is at
the head Of 1853 evangelists and
teachers, most of whom are natives
trained at the Flat station, where
Rev. Neal formerly was stationed.
In his supervisory work Rev. Neal
makes the rounds of the eight sub

ALBANY COLLEGE, Albany, Or,
Nov. 22.-Fred W. Neal, graduate
of Albany college, is now in charge
of a Presbyterian mission field more
than 100 miles in diameter situated
near the head of the Congo basin in
Africa, according to letters received
on the campus. 1t is a new field

Rev. and Mrs. Neal, who have OBJ

Direct telegraphic communication
with Portland was still impossible at

disadvantage in cities north of AL

Although a falling barometer In

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. "a
The Arabian desert, which always
was regarded as an impregnable bar
rier to direct communication be-
tween the Mediterranean sea and
the Persian gulf, has been conquered
by airplane, according to adyices to
the army air service.
Instead of attempting to cross the
desert alrplanes heretofore were ac-
customed to fly semi-circular
course around its northern extrem-
ity, thereby travelling many miles
further than the distance that act
ually separates the air stations on
the eastern and western sides of this
endless expaRse Of sand.
The route will be $50 miles long.
It will pass through Amman in the
Transjordania, and Kasrel Azrak,
where landing fields have now been
established, and then will take an
almost straight line across the des-
ert to Ramadie, on the Euphrates,

PLANS MADE FOR
BIGGER CAMPAIGN;
HOTEL LUNCHEON

At the open forum luncheon at
Hotel Ashland today 1t was voted
on motion made by E. E Phipps and
seconded by J. H. McGee-to en-
large the greater hotel committee
and make a systematic, whirlwind
campaign to finish raising the pro-
posed $4,000 bonus for building a
quarter-million tourist hotel in Ash
land. The present committee OF
fourteen reported $4,000 subscribed,
but in addition to this, representa-
tives of Ashland's banks promised
$4,000, although no definite sub
scriptions can be made until the ac-
tion is taken by the directors. This
makes a total of $4,000, exclusive
of $500 which was reported from
two subscribers few weeks ago
but which has not yet been definitely
secured.
V. o. N. Smith and others who
have carefully studied the project
estimate that the building of the
proposed hotel in Ashland will in
crease the value of real estate here
ten per cent, which would alone
amount to 100000.
Bert Greer called attention to the
fact that Ashland has already spent
$235,00O in providing a park and
mobilizirg our unrivalled mineral
waters. He voiced the opinion that
we could well afford to subscribe the
entire amount needed for a first
class tourist hotel, up to $3.50, 900,
adding that the benefits that will
be derived from such an institution
in the year 1925 alone would justify
the investment, on account OF the
Portland fair to be held in that
year, and the number of outside vis-
itors it will attract to the state and
Ashland.
E. T. Staples answered the objec-
tion which is met in some quarters
in regard to the proposed hotel hurt
ing the business Of Hotel Ashland,
by stating that in his opinion such
an institution would result in doub-
ling the value Of the hotel which
we now have.

PROMOTE ASHLAND FLYING FIELD
AS HEADQUARTERS FOR PASSENGER
SERVICE; ORDERED SHIPS ON WAY

Ashland has wonderful oppor'
tunity to become an important air
plane station, in the opinion of A. B
Mckenzie, who is closely in touch
with the air transportation situation
The landing field just across the
road from the Sarsaparilla barn near
Bear creek, is said to be ideal. On
account of the wind coming from
the same direction most of the time,
much smaller field is needed than
in many other places. Fifteen acres
is considered ample, while the gov
ernment class A field contains 80
acres, being 1890 by 1900 feet. The
Medford municipal airplane field con-
tains but ten acres and is consid-
cred too small by aviators.
With a public landing field there
would be good prospect-local av-
iators say a certainty-of the gov
ernment fire patrol making Ashland
their headquarters, because of the
superiority of the field over Med
ford. Twenty planes were used the
past season by the government at
Medford, Eugene and Fort Stevens.
At present the war department is
trying to get the interior depart
ment to pay for patrolling the ma
tional forests. Army officials say
1t is not their business to fight fire,
while the interior department claims
they haven't sufficient funds to keep
the fliers up in the air. II the state
and private timber owners do not
come to the rescue, Oregon forests
may be unpatrolled next summer.
within a month-possibly in time
to make an aeronautical exhibit at
the Winter Fair-A. B. Mckenzie
expects to have a Standard airplane
here from Portland. William Baker,
former lieutenant in the Canadian
Royal Flying corps, expects to bring
a Curtiss plane here from Idaho
little later, while E. G. High has
$4,000 seven-passenger Ansaldo
plane which is scheduled to arrive
from New York before the flying
season opens next spring.
According to the last named gen.
tleman, airplanes are supplanting
railroad trains and even autos, at a
rapid rate. With his new Ansaldo,
Mr.. High proposes to make daily
trips to San Francisco, slipping

down there at the rate of $50 miles
per hour, two or three hours being
considered ample for the journey.
If this machine were now in opera
tion, 1t would be possible for Ash
landers to attend the Arbuckle trial
and see the pictures at the Vining
each evening. The cost of operating
the big plane is estimated at $35
per hour, which would enable the
owners to compete with railroad
trains and auto buses. Reserva-
tions may now be booked for the
first flight to San Francisco.

I'm here to tell the world that
Ashland is just the dandiest lit
tie town on he Pacific coast. That
she has as great possibilities as
any other town. Her big chance
is along the tourist and mineral
resort lines. She needs a big
tourist hotel and facilities con-
nected with it for the scientific
use of her waters in baths. When
she gets these she will soon get
on the map. Pretty soon the
bonus committee now working to
get bonus that will land the big
thing will whip the proposal into
such shape as 1t will get what
Ashland really needs, and then
we will all come through on the
bonus and get the grapes.

NATION MENACED
BY INCREASE Of
OPIUM TRAFFIC

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. "a
Underground traffic in drugs, devel-
oping startlingly in recent years, has
become serious menace to the well
fare of the nation, in the opinion of
federal officials.
The illegiti9ate traffic in narcot-
les is conducted by the s6-called
dope peddlers,' who appear to have
perfectly organized, countrywide
'ring."
These drug vendors, for the most
part, obtain their dope" supplies
from Mexico and Canada, although
smaller quantities are obtained by
thefts and Illegal transactions with
INSCRIPTIONS dealers. Considerable
drug smuggling is practiced on both
the Atlantic and Pacific coasts,
where the drugs arrive on ships hail
ing from the Orient and Europe.
The smuggling problem has devel-
oped a perplexing situation. 1t has
been ascertained that a large por-
tion of the drugs that enter this
country through Illicit channels was
shipped from the United States, af-
ter manufacture by reputable firms.
The belief has been expressed
that the headquarters of the extern
sive dope ring" is located outside
the United States and that they OBJ
tain the drugs shipped from this
country with the express intention
of smuggling the dope" back for
illegal sale.
Use the Underground"
1t is largely through these under
ground channels that the drug ad-
dict now obtains his supply of HOP"
A recent government survey dis
closed the startling fact that the
use Of opium and its alkaloids, for
other than legitimate medical pur-
poses. has increased amazingly in
recent years. About 30 per cent of
the amount of narcotics entered for
consumption in this country is used
for other than medical purposes, 1t
has been estimated. Although this
estimate is vague, federal officials
have completed a statement show
ing the per capita consumption in
this country and that of European
countries, which discloses that this
country consumes 1S to 70 times as
much opium per capita as is consum-
ed in other countries, the records of
which are available.

OBSCUR|TY Of
NEW YORK IS
GOOD ENOUGH
BY LEO T. HEATLEY
I n &. Staff Correspondent)

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-New York
is big; New York is cosmopolitan
1t is even friendly. But New York
is also the crucible into which the
great come only to find that they
have dwindled into insignificance
The fame of Napoleon himself could
not survive other and more immedi-
ate questions in this great city.
All this is preliminary to the story
OF c. N. Haskell, 0klahomas first
governor, a big political gun in that
state and a national figure-until
he came to New York Haskell
went back to Oklahoma last month
on his first visit in five years. The
newspapers there got out special
welcome editions, and the welkin
rang from Altus to Miami, and from
Guymon to Hugo-considerable ter
ritory.
In New York Haskell Is chairman
OF the board of the Middle States
Oil company. When he made up his
mind to go to Oklahoma the only
ones to miss him were his stenog-
rapher, his office boy and the office
doorman. Outside Of these and a
few friends, no one knew he had
ever been in New York, to say moth
ing Of his leaving it. Outside Of his
business and social orbit, the tax
collector is the only individual who
has evinced any special interest in
him.
Wrote "Denver Platform
In Oklahoma the name of &c. N"
was a household word. President
Roosevelt thundered at him, and
newspapers exposed him. He wrote
the Denver platform of democracy,
and was the party's national treas
uref.
In New York he has made just as
much of a success in business as he
did in Oklahoma politics. AS an
Oklahoman his name and face we're
once familiar to New York. AS a
New Yorker-well, he still is re-
membered in Oklahoma.
When he made this last trip to
the state he was first to rule, he
spoke at the state fair, and every
body hustled to McAlester and list
ened to him. Publicly they cheered
but privately they asked each other
what he was "up to-" They specu-
lated as to whether he was about
to return to Oklahoma politics and
give Cherokee Bob Owen another
run for the senate, or was this to be
the opening gun of a national cam
paign? But he fooled them all. He
spoke of national extravaganza and
the direct election of federal judges.
They went away still cheering and
still puzzled, and he came back to
the Madison avenue offices of the
Middle States Oil company.

END; STORMS

PORTLAND, Or, Nov. 22.-The
terrific sleet and snow storm which
has held the Pacific Northwest in
its grip for the past two days ap-
peared to have abated today. Not
withsanding the cessation of the
storm, an additional heavy damage
Is expected due to the rapidly ris-
ing flood waters. The main line
train service ON the Union Pacific,
Southern Pacific, and Spokane, Port
land and Seattle railways leading in
to Portland are still demorahzed.
The Portland water system is Grip
pied and the supply, it is estimated,
will not last until tomorrow. Nearly
a thousand telephones are out Of
commission here, and the high wa
ter is menacing the Portland
bridges, 1t may be found necessary
to close some Of the bridges.
