Courageous" was the title for
Thomas Carl Hartfiel, and he
made a good demonstration of
courage himself, for, being un
able to stand alone, he supported
himself en crutches. Fellow con
testants helped him on and off
the platform. His style was rath
er more narrative than the
others.
Ernest Hummel spoke on "The
Spirit of Washington". His Intro
duction was quite original for an
Satlon being scenes drawn from
e Imagination to "contrast
young G. W. with the typical
modern youth. Nor did Washing

comparison either.

road, already made, took all this
into account.
"The facts am simply these:
E. B. Aldrich of Pendleton, one of
the three men named to the com
mission, has long advocated the
Umatilla rapids dam project tor
the supposed benefit of his com
munity. He has as long- been op
posed the Umatilla-Wallula high
way because it would not benefit
his community. He has fought pre
vious state highway commissions
because they did not, in one ges
ture, authorize a north-south high
way into sparsely settled Grant
county to open a new territory
tributary to Pendleton.
"The hand of Aldrich Is plainly
written in this more. It is almost
unthinkable that a man of his re

make it his first official act to
block a highway project half com
