"At a time when things look dark for the library service in the State o Oregon," said Governor Douglas McKay, adressing the assembly gathered in Cottage Grove last Saturday afternoon for the dedication of the W. A. Wood ard Library, "the gift of this beau tiful Colonial building is a cheer ing note. I hope that there will be similar gifts elsewhere in our state by other citizens as public spirit ed and generous as Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Woodard. "I have often thought of the State library as the poor man's university. It is amazing to see horn many people are using the fac ilities of our State library for Bour ses." Governor McKay is chair man of the State library board. Miss Eleanor Stephens, state libr arian, was also present. "Oregon's progress cannot be a real progress unless it is a balanc ed progress," asserted the gover nor, deploring the fact that when "increased public service brought increased taxes and consequent resentment on the part of the tax Naval, Air Bases On West Coast Barred To Public SAN FRANCISCO, July i-4!P) The bars were up today against casual visitors at naval bases from San Diego to Seattle and west to Hawaii. Air force bases took similar pre cautions. Civilian' defense units formed. In some communities, world war It's air raid sirens were set up. A naval task force was being formed at San Diego, centered on the aircraft carrier Philippine Sea, for dispatch to Hawaii. Air, naval and army command ers in the Sari Francisco area Joint ly announced readiness to carry out any orders from President Tru man. Thus did the Impact of the fight ing in Korea make itself felt upon the life of the west coast. The radar and jet fighter de fense against bombing raids from out over the Pacific have been tested and proved. The western air defense at Hamilton field, north of the Golden Gate, said that B3Cs flying in from Hawaii on a simu lated atom bombing attack were detected by radar before they reached the mainland. And three minutes later 5-86 Thunderjcts had intercepted the big six-engined bombers, whose home base is Cars well field, near Fort Worth. The carrier Philippine Sea was due in San Diego today. She will sail at an undisclosed date for Honolulu. Also going there are the cruisers Helena and Toledo. There was talk of this and re ports of that. This sort of thing prompted the commanders of the Sixth army, the western sea fron tier and the Fourth air force to issue a joint statement. It assured the public the Korean situation has yet to disturb "nor mal functions" of those military organizations but: "All services are prepared to Im plement any orders issued by the President with efficiency and dis patch."

Martin Kp payers, the library service was the first to feel the effect of such re sentment." Governor McKay cit ed statistics to prove his point. He then paid tribute to "My friends Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Woodard, who have realized the need for better library facilities and have made them possible." "The United States was the first nation to be founded on world bro therhood; a nation in which the government is the servant of the people and not the people slaves to the government, a nation where free enterprise really exists. The gift of the W. A. Woodard library by a man who has lived fifty years in the community, and has not for gotten his obligation to the com munity in which he lives, is proof of such free enterprise, its opport unity and its privilege." Following the ceremonies, chart er member library cards signed by Governor McKay and W. A. Woodward were presented to the first fifty guests as souvenirs of the occasion, by Mrs. Nellie Ha mant who has been town librarian for twenty-two years. t : PUD Chief Overruled In Ban On Payments SALEM,-!')

My Com. expires Nov.17, 1952. eiun Late In the evening of last Thanksgiving, one of our policyowners, who lived in a large midwestern city, l.ft his home to buy some cigarettes. The most con venient place ot that hour was a tavern. Early the next morning he was picked up by police and jailed on the assumption that he was intoxicated. His watch, billfold ond keys were missing, ond no means of identification could be found on him. The next day he was releosed to his fomily ond he seemed to be considerably dazed. Some hours later he was sent to a hospital where he died shortly after his orrivol. The coroner was colled, and his office, without on outopsy, ruled that the cause of death was coronory occlusion. However, certain circumstonces surrounding the case prompted our company to start on independent investi gation in order to estoblish definitely whether this man hod octuolly died of a "heart attack" or possibly from some occidental injury. An autopsy, made at our own expense, revealed a sizeable skull fracture, clearly show ing occidental death. We immediately assumed full lia bility under the policy's "double indemnity" provision. Thus, because of the Connecticut Mutupl's interest In teeing that the rights of beneficiaries are fulfilled to the letter, this widow received DOUBLE the amount of her husband's policy. Needness to soy, this additional Income will be welcomed by a widow who suddenly finds herself foced with the problem of supporting ond roising a young son. . nii . ) Connecticut ffutual INSURANCE COMPANY, HARTFORD PORTLAND O.
