Health Food Conservation Grape-Nute THERE'S A REASON Patriotism of Retired Election Board Chairman Qaestloaed by Com mittee of Citlaena. . By unanimous action of the County Commissioners and County Clerk Bev ertdge, W. W. Northway, alleged un American merchant of Sprlngdale, four miles beyond Troutdale, on th Co lumbia Rver Highway, was dismissed summarily as chairman of the Spring dale election board yesterday, and J. Ward Evans, who had been recom mended to the officials, was substi tuted In bis atead. Northway had been summoned to ap pear yesterday before the Commission, era to show cause why he should not be removed, but he failed to put in an appearance. His dismissal had been recommended two weeka ago by a com mittee of citizens, who filed charges reflecting on hla patriotism during- the recent patriotic war drives and liberty loan campaigns. It was learned yesterday that other residents of Sprlngdale had appeared some days ago before Presiding Judge Morrow and requested that Northway be removed as a Circuit Court Juror. Although Northway pleaded that he was too busy to attend to his duties as a juror. It was said yesterday taat the real cause of his discharge by Judge Morrow was because of his record at Sprlngdale. where the entire district had become aroused. A curt notice of dismissal was sent to Northway yesterday by County Clerk Beveridge. and another notice was likewise ' sent to Mr. Evans, advising him of his appointment as chairman of election board No. 312. Aaron Fox, of Troutdale, said yester day that Northway was not a resident of Troutdale, though he does get his mail from Troutdale through rural route No. 1. 10 could not pass the physical exami nation, two could not get released by their local draft boards and three are seeking releases and will enlist as soon as they arrive..
