However, If party politics are allowed to be entangled with it, it may become horrible nightmare. "The unjust and unfair criti cism directed at the Polk county civil works administration by a small group of democratic central committeemen meeting at , Dallas Thursday evening, In my -opinion. was wholly unwarranted. I do not believe these gentlemen speak the sentiment of the democratic par ty. They are either uninformed or have been misinformed as to the manner In which, supervisors of projects are selected "I think, without exception, all local government units presenting applications for projects to the county committee have designated in the application the person de sired as supervisor. The placing ol foremen or workmen on pro jects is not the duty of the conn ty committee but Is a function of the re - employment officer. Mr, William Blackley, county re-em ployment officer, has complied with the requests of officials of the local government units In the placing of supervisors and wilt verify the statement that no un due influence has been used by any member of the county com mittee In the placing of these men. He has endeavored to be fair in the selection of all workmen and is too busy , to be bothered about what political party they may belong to. "It has been reported that dis gruntled democrats hare threat ened to 'smoke out' all civil works officials who do not belong to the party. Political sniping has al ready resulted In the resignation of State CWA Chairman Ray mona a. wucox. ur. Wilcox is a splendid gentleman, a fine execu tlve and baa the state civil works administration well organised. It is sincerely to be hoped that he will reconsider the matter aa his loss would be a serious blow to the cause. It may be that the ac tlon taken at the Dallas meeting Is a part of the scheme to disrupt county committees. "The job is too Important at this time to let politic hinder Its progress. As far as the Polk conn ty committee is concerned we will continue as long as we are per nutted to serve, to conduct the business at hand to the best of our ability and understanding.

The Oregon supreme court heard arguments Friday in the suit brought by the Warm Springs Irrigation district to test the le gality and request authorisation tor the state to release the Indebt edness of irrigation districts in Oregon in order to permit them to secure federal aid in refinanc ing plans. The suit was instigated against Rufus C. Holman, state treasurer. Release of indebtedness of the Warm Springs district as well as nine othjers which have applied to the Reconstruction Finance cor porate for loans' for refinancing purposes, would be necessary In or der to secure financial help, it was declared by C.

Thirty-one districts have made application to the Reconstruction Finance corporation for loans. Strlcklin said. Of these 10 are in debted to the state.

DISCUSSED Scenic beauty as the state's greatest resource was discussed by Prof. W. C. Jones ot Willamette at the Salem Ad club Friday. In dustrial development here, he felt was conditioned in part by lack of extensive mineral deposits. But in marine and mountain scenery the state has resources- which should attract thousands of people every year. Prof. Jones decried making the coast highway a "speed highway,1 and branded replacement of the quaht) and interesting ferries with bridges as "criminal" because it removed the picturesque elements from the coast scene. Points oi interest which have not received proper attention Include Crooked river canyon, Hell Box canyon on the Snake river, the Wallowa country.
