LIQUOR INQUIRY BEGUN
Vinatilla County Grand Jury Takes
Up Special Officer's Case.
PENDLETOX, Or.. Jan. 5. (Spe
cial.) The grand Jury has convened
riere and with 12 witnesses called for
the first .day it Is said that the first
consideration of the secret investi
gating body will be the alleged Illegal
practices of the special prohibition
officer, appointed by the governor and
paid by the county.
Sensational charges have been made
by men in the city regarding the offi
cer's activity and several of these
men have been called by the district
attorney to tell what they know.
This action is the sequel to a dis
pute between the Umatilla county
court and the sheriff over enforce
ment of the prohibition laws. The
sheriff some months ago said he could
not continue to enforce the prohibi
tion law out of his own pocket and
when the court refused to allow him
money to continue this work, the
sheriff said he could not continue.
The special officer was then obtained
through Governor Olcott.

1KRKGIL.VR CLAIMS TOTAL 6 7
OF 7642 FILED IX STATE.
Entry Into Service Prior to June 3,
1015, Causes Misconception
Due to Legal Discrepancy.
SALEM, Or., Jan. 5. (Special.)
Only 67 out o' a total of 7642 claims
for cash bonus and lons examined
by the world war veterans' state aid
commission have been rejected, ac
cording to a report.prepared here to
day by Captain iRirry Brumbaugh,
secretary of the commission.
The rejections were classified as
follows:
Entered service prior to June 3.
1915, 36; less than 60 days total serv
ice, 17; no military or naval status.
5; service confined to student army
training corps, 4; non-resideht at time
of entry into service, 2; dishonorable
discharge, 1.
The large number of rejections on
account of entry into the service
prior to June 3, 1915. Captain Brum
baugh said, was due to the fact that
while this restriction appears in the
constitutional amendment It does nt
appear In the legislative enactment, today as the result of charges that
which has bven more widely circu
lated and more frequently referred to
than the amendment.
This omission has created the im
pression in some quarters that the
rejection of an applicant on the
grounds of entry into the servict
prior to June 3, 1915, was the result I
of a ruling of the commission.

January 8th, 1922
Beginning January 8, 1922, our new telephone directory
will be supplied for your convenience and use. There
are several thousand changes of listings, principally from
Main to Broadway numbers. In the interest of good
service, our subscribers are especially requested to refrain
from calling numbers from memory and to adopt the
practice of always consulting the directory for the number
wanted.
Unless this is carried out there will be many calls for
the old discontinued numbers and while we will make
every effort to complete such calls as promptly as pos
sible, there will be inevitably some delay in your service
and extra work for our operators in handling these calls.
In all such cases your call will be referred to a special
operator who will ascertain the correct number and advise
you of the new number and request your operator to
complete the connection. In order to avoid this delay
always consult your directory before placing call. This
will not only insure quicker and better service from your
telephone but will also prevent much unnecessary work
on the part of the operator whose regular work will be
retarded if there is any considerable volume of wrong
calls.
