Into confer ence; by; Governor Norblad. , . The governor summoned the eosunlsslon .-: as an 1 emergency ataasure to prorlde labor, II pos sible, for men who otherwise wlu be idle daring the winter. While the highway commission saw, no oaslbllltr of addtlonal bonds and v added construction projects solr- .lag the sitnatlon, because of wet weather In western Oregon and hard winter weather In the higher eastern Oregon districts, the com mission was of the opinion- that la - various parts of the . state are - email stretches . of. , highway on which 'w Inter work can be carried a, tod It agreed to pat crews at ' .work on. these as tar as, possible. May Shift Federal - AM to Ontario Another possibility of an alter ed policy that woald b beneficial both to the highway program and t the unemployment situation, it was" said, ; would be to shift the federal aid mileage eastward from Bend on the Bend-Barns highway to. the highway from-Barns to Ontario-. Each of " these proejets - If about 1SS -miles in length. The advantage of the shift lies In the ' fact that some winter work Is pos slbleon the Burns-Ontario route, but sot on the Bend-Burns high way. The commission got the eon eat of Governor Norblad to Join It la petition the federal bureau of public roads to make the shift. - 'An added argument against the Issuance of additional bonds was the delay that Is necessary in get ting a sew project under way even after It la approved by the high way department, which would make It impossible for additional projects to benefit labor this win ter. J It was stated that the police of the commission at present is to issue only enough bonds to match federal money. This year this amounts to about $1,900,000, and it will be abont $1,500,000 tor each of the two following years. Last Contract on Coast Let Soon Relative to the program for im mediate work it was stated that the last grading contract on the Roosevelt coast highway will be let by January 1, and that con struction on that highway con tracted by that time will aggre gate about $1,127,000 or $327, 00 state and $500,000 federal money. Before the end of 1932, It was said, It will be possible to travel the entire Roosevelt high way on a graded surfaee. Senator Joe Dunne of Portland sent In a telegraphic protest against farther bond Issues un less contract should provide that only Oregon-made materials be used and only laborers employed who had lived In the state at least a year. To this the commission re plied that . this already was Its policy, and that laborers and ma-, terlals from outside the state that Dunne claimed to have observed were on federal aid Jobs, the fed eral governmet not recognizing state lines. Ben T. Osborne and Gust An derson" of Portland, representing the State Federation of Labor, urged the commission to adopt the eight-hoar day as a definite policy aad require contractors to lire up tto it. The commission said It had log used this policy, and that most of the violations of the principle 'were on oiling contracts that could not be held to a rigid eight hours., MIS BII1E0 TO 1 ARLINGTON.

Hop and Berry Pickers are In Demand, Employment Agency Announces . v. By R. J. HENDRICKS Here Is a new note.1 There la a great shortage of hop pickers, and also ot evergreen backberry pickers, in the Salem district. On the west side oft the Willam ette river, beginning a few miles above West Salem, fov twelve miles or more, these are many hop-yards with signs out for more pickers, -and not nearly enough are applying. " A grower told the writer Tues day that there is a shortage ot at least 1000 pickers In that dis tance. And the shortage Is not confined to that section. One trouble Is that pickers will register for one yard and perhaps for two or three, and not show up, bat go to some other yard. If they pick hops at all. This leaves the owner of the yard expecting his pickers short, and at a time when it is too late to till the vacancies made by the derelicts. Calls for Belief May go Unheeded Evergreen blackberry picking is' hard work; but it will be Just too bad If, any are wasted. The n? 3.0 c voce1 is Including the National Air Race events, Richfield registered 68 important victories and records be tween August 10 and September 1 ...the greatest1 competitive record ever credited to any gasoline! Among these triumphs with Richfield Gasoline and Richlube Motor Oil are the new junior trans.' continental record made by Eddie Schneider, the new solo amphibian record by William Atwater,1 Rath Alexanders new Canada to. , Mexico record foe women, 1st,' 2nd and.

A hop grower told the writer hi will not he sympathetic with such appeals lster, when he Is left In the lurch now, for want ot people to harvest his crop. " The T free employment office In doing all posr'ble to get more bop and berry pickers; and new ones are coming every day; bat not enough, and now is the cru cial time. . Probably Enough Sim Phillips, in charge of the employment office, thinks there will probably be enough prune pickers; though some growers are still anxious about this. It is easier to get prune than berry pickers, or even hop pickers. Anyway, let the word go out that there are more Jobs, right now, in and around Salem, than there are workers at least more than there are willing workers. The shortage of hop pickers will, no doubt be somewhat reliev ed soon, If not entirely so, by the small yards getting through, and the workers going to the larger yards, where the picking season l lonrer- A number of growers in the Aurora section are already through picking hops. .NAT I O NAL A I of 23 events in the world-famous Gold Cup Re gatta at Red Bank, N.
