DRUGS SEIZED

Last week a seizure of $50,000 worth
of drugs was made at tht- same place

The Pacific Highway garage, located

The deal was closed here this week.
and part of lots three and four of
blifck 24, is the land purchased.
A deal is also on whereby the ad
joining property, owned by the Fox
heirs, consisting of four places of
business, is to be in the sale, and will
be closed within a few days, as the
tennants have been ordered to vacate
by July 1. Owing to the present con
dition with scarcity of vacant business
houses, this baa become a puzzling
problem to the men, who are now
forced to seek other location. Frank
Hopp, who has been In the harness
business In the corner building owned
by the Fox Heirs, for the past two
years, ha made a canvass of the city
looking for a location, but so far ha
been unsuccessful, and says if he is
unable to find one, is contemplating
to go to Canby.
The C. C. restaurant adjoining, do
ing a big business, will also be out
of a building, and the owner will prob
ably go elsewhere, unless he finds
another building.
The Taeroux music house will oc
cupy the new building being erected
on the opposite side ot the street.
which will probably be ready July 1.
This is to adjoin the building being
erected for Price ljrothers.
The Falls Transfer company, having
occupied the building for the past six
years, is also looking for another lo
cation, but so far has been fruitless.
"R, C. Ganong, who has been connect
ed with the Portland Flouring mills
for the past 33 years, and Who is local
agent, has not yet decided upon his
future plans, but It is hoped by his
many friends here that he will con
tinue his residence in Oregon City.
He Is the brother ot Joseph Ganong,
ot Portland, general manager of the
Portland Flouring mills.
Beldon (Buz?.y) Ganong, who has
been bookkeeper and a salesman for
the company for the" past 16 years.
has had several flattering offers made
him, but so tar has not decided as to
(he future.
John McGetchte, one of the old mill
wrights, who has been connected with
the company for over 35 years, will
retain his residence at Gladstone.
The land owned and occupied by the
Portland Flouring mills has a front
age of Seventh street, and at the rear
extends to the Southern Pacific Rail
road track, where grain and feed has
been shipped to and from this city.
PREVENTED
SALEM, Ore., May II. The people
of Oregon have no cause to fear that
(heir industries will be crippled and
their social , welfare menaced through
the operation of the so-called 56-degree
gravity gasoline law, naw in effect
In this state, as long as Governor
Olcott Is clothed with the power to
grant pardons. This was made plain
in a statement issued by the governor
following a conference with State
Treasurer Hoff and Attorney-General
Brown this afternoon. ,
"The gasoline situation In Oregon
has reached an acute crisis through
which industrites are not only threat
ened, but crippled, and there is an
immeidate probability ot no more gas
oline being shipped into the Ute,'
said the governor's statement. "The
use of gasoline has become so closely
linked with every phase of modern
life that any serious curtailment of
its supply Is nothing short of a catas
trophe. . -
'The alarming condition Which ex
ists Is ?argely due to the law of the
1917 legislature which prohibits the
sale of gasoline.of less than 56 degrees
specific gravity.
The constitution of the state, how
ever, as a safeguard against situa
tions just such as the present one
or to remedy situations where a grave
injustice may have been work, has
extended to the executive office the
power to remit fines and to grant
pardons. In the light of such a con
stitutonal provision I have no hesi
tation in saying that the pefple ot
the state should have .no cause to
fear that their Industries will be crip
pled and their social well-being men
aced througn the operation of a law
which has outgrown its usefulness and
its place on the statute books.
"Further., I see no reason why the
officials of the oil companies should
hesitate to go ahead and import into
the state all of the gasoline neces
sary to place our Industries and the op
eration of cars back on a normal
basis."
