NO EMBARGO GIVES
HOPE TO SHIPPERS

The fact that no embargo has been
placed by rail lines on apple shipments
is taken by shippers as a real indica-
tion that the strike announced will
not materialiZe. Last week shippers,
fearing an immediate embargo began
appeals for additional refrigerator cars
and many box cars were loaded out.
Refers and as many box cars as can
be secured, are still loaded out, but
shippers declare that they believe no
strike will prevail, or that if it does it
will not be serious enough to tie up
movement of trains loaded with
perishable products.
Up to Saturday night the total of
apple shipments from the valley had
reached 57l carloads. with the Apple
Growers Association leading with 3l8
cars. These shipments represent less
than 25. per cent of the valleys tom
mage.
Apples are moving into storage
warehouses here at a rapid rate. The
Association up to Saturday received
60l, 290 boxes, an approximate so per
cent of the apples picked by its affili-
ated growers. Other shipping concerns
report receipts in proportionate per-
centage. During the coming week,
with picking over and packing crews
augmented to the limit, apples will be
rushed to shipping points in greater
volume than ever.

BOYS In TOLLS FOR
TAKING AUTOMOBILE

Andrew Imrie. aged 20. of Good
enough Hills, Wash, was bound over TO
the grand jury Saturday by Justice of
the Peace Onthank on a charge of ap-
propriating the automobile of VIM.
Rush, Of Mount Hood. Joseph Car
roll, II, who accompanied Imrie, was
remanded to Jail to await action of the
juvenile court. Imrie stated that he
made use of the car IN order to make
a trip to The Dalles to see a brother.
The machine, according to his explana-
tion, was wrecked in the Twin Tunnels
of the Highway between here and Mo
sier when the lights went out. Both
boys were slightly injured in the
wreck. Sheriff johnson arrested the
boys.
Carroll claims that he was on the
eve Of leaving for California to join a
sister in a motor trip back to Chicago,
where he expects to reenter high
school following the holidays. Indeed,
a telegram from California relatives,
advising him to hasten south, was re-
ceived Saturday. Imrie's bail was
fixed at $500.
Young Carroll's brother was expect
ed to arrive here last night from Cali
fornia. Ii is anticipated that he will be

son, son of Mr.. and Mrs. William
Johnson, of Oregon City. was shipped
to Chehalis, Wash, Saturday. Funeral
services were held Sunday. The young
man died Thursday night from injuries
sustained the previous Wednesday
when two sets of trucks of logging
car of the Oregon Lumber Co., by
whom she was employed, passed over
his abdomen. The boy fell between
the trucks while riding at the end of
one. 1t is considered remarkable that
he was not killed instantly, but the
spine was apparently not injured, and
he remained conscious up to five min
utes before death came.
In addition to his parents, young Mr..
johnson is survived by the following
brothers and sisters, George, Rudolph.
Luther, Marie, Fredolph and Herbert
johnson. He was a native of Pike
county, Ky. The family has resided in
Oregon and Washington for the past
nine years.

CALIFORNIA MAN
FLOATS DOWN RIVER

Like the bateaux of days of the
French voyageur, when the region S
fur bearing animals attracted hardy
hunters and trappers, a rowboat, occu-
pied by M. j. Lorraine. of Alhambra,
Calf, moved with the swift current
down the Columbia this week. Mr..
Lorraine. who is 68 syears old, has
travelled by his boat, of dory type, all
the way from Canal Flats, B. c. He
is taking the long trip, whichiwill end
at Astoria, as an outing,
During the entire trip he hasgnegoti-
ated more than 100 rapids without a
single mishap He has taken to dry
land during the 1900 miles of descent
to the ocean for about "a miles, where
portages were unavoidable. Surprise
Rapids, the rapids of Kettel Falls and
Rickeys Rapids, where boatmen have
often met with disaster, were negoti-
ated by him without trouble.
While Mr.. Lorraine has stopped fre-
quently to study the country and towns
along the river, he camps on the
beaches His boat carries a complete
outfit.

FURTHER LOOP CON-
TRACTS EXPECTED

County officials express a confidence
that the State Highway Commission at
its November sitting will take formal
steps toward letting contracts for
grading the entire valley trunk line of
the Mount Hood Loop Highway in this
county. Five miles are now being
constructed over Booth Hill. Officials
have been urging such action on the
Highway department for the past sew
eral weeks. and engineers of the office
have recommended that the contracts
be let. Members of the county board
of commissioners went to Portland
yesterday to further press the case be-
fore the State Highway Commission.
The county recentlyssold at prem
ium $3.50, 600 Of the $3.50, 900 bond issue
votedglast June for financing the coun-
tvs half of the road construction. In
case the other work, an approximate
Is miles, is awarded at once, ga suffici-
ent portion'of the bonds to meet the
expense will be sold at once by the
county. Because of the decrease in
cost of construction, however, it is ex-
pected that the county will be able to
save in the neighborhood of $4,000 of
the bonds.

WATER DECREE
FILED MONDAY
FIVE LITIGANTS ANNOUNCE APPEAL.
Decree Covers 13O Pages Appeal Notices
to be Mailed to All Parties
to Big Suit

Following filing of decree Monday
by Circuit Judge Wilson notices of ap-
peal to the supreme court were form
ally announced by the Pacific Power &
Light Co., the Oregon Lumber Co.,
the East Fork Irrigation District, the
Mt. Hood Water Co. and the Glacier
lrrigating Co. The decree W; 8 ne of
the most lengthy ever filed in z local
case. 1t covered 1870 pages. s.
The decision of the case, a | :. irma-
tion of the findings of the Sta Water
Board, is a decided victory the
East Fork Irrigation Co., the hts of
which were attacked by tn q regon
Lumber Co. eight years ago, : case
at that time resulting favo = V for
the irrigation concern, havir 5 one to
the supreme court. The case o as re-
manded with instructions lit the
State Water Board assume risdic-
tion and conduct a thorough 3 estiga-
tion for the basis of complete adjudi-
cation of all claims on the watershed.
The Pacific Power & Light Co. attacked
the rights of all irrigation concerns,
maintaining that through rights incl
dent to riparian ownership it was en-
titled at times to the entire flow of the
river. The decision denies the right of
riparian ownersip.
The appeals of other litigants in the
big case are based on claims to prior
ity rights to use of waters Of the
stream.
The case, as it will set precedent
in Oregon supreme court decisions on
riparian ownership, is being watched
by irrigation attorneys in all parts of
the state. A host of out of town at
torneys was here Monday for the ses-
sion of circuit court. The parties to
the appeals have joined and will fur
nish but one abstract and transcript.
AS this document will be voluminous,
a saving of more than $1,000 will be
thus effected. 1t is not expected that
the case will be at issue before the su-
preme court before next summer. A
decision is not expected until about
January 1928.
The Oregon irrigation laws require
that notice of appeal bonds be sent to
all parties directly named in the litiga-
ton. This will require that attorneys
for each of the five appealing contest
ants mail within the next few days
their formal appeal to some $50 orch
ardists of the valley. The law requires
that such action be taken in order
that all parties may be given an oppor-
tunity to approve Of the sureties. At
however, state that the no.
tices of appeal in this case are a mere
formality and that growers when they
receive the documnts may simply drop
them in the wastepaper basket without
further attention.

RAIN FINDS APPLE
CROP WELL PICKED

The steady rain that prevailed Mon
day found practically every orchard

has reached material proportions.
Crews continued packing work at
warehouses and practically all apples
will be boxed in the next two weeks.

Harvest Help Not Scarce

the wheat harvest, and that in some,
areas there will be decided sur,

began about June Is in the south

labor is already in excess of the de.
mand. In that state wages for shock
ers do not run over So day with
board and lodging. 10 Texas, where
harvest is already in progress, there
seems to be labor enough to meet all
demands with the possible exception
of the Panhandle district. In Texas
harvest wages run from So tn $2.5
