OETI FAIR TASK
Max Gehlhar, former state agri
culture director, was giving seri
ous consideration last night to
accepting the position of manager
of the Oregon state fair this fall,
having been proffered the job
yesterday by Solon T. White, suc
cessor to Gehlhar's state job.
"I will not make up my mind
until Monday," Gehlhar said.
"Xhe state fair Job would take
much of my time at the very
busiest part of tbe canning sea
son." Gehlhar admitted, however,
that he liked the fair work and
had become thoroughly interest
ed in the job in the four years he
had handled it.
He and his son are now engag
ed in preparing for the 1935 can
ning -season when they will oper
ate their own plant in West Sa
lem. When he resigned early in
January as state agricultural di
rector Gehlhar pointed out that
his operation of the cannery
would preclude his continuing as
agricultural director. There would
be no legal objection, however,
to his holding the post of mana
ger of the fair and at the same
time operating a cannery.

Chamber Sending
Much Literature
To Land Seekers
Increasing inquiries about Ore

staff busy sending to eastern peo
ple detailed information about
this section of the country. Hun
dreds of copies of the chamber's
publication, "On to Oregon." are
being sent east each month and
comments received from eastern
inquiries are that this booklet
comes nearer to answering their
questions about the state than any
publication they receive.
The chamber reports that the
letters of inquiry are from peo
ple who frequently have some
cash to invest in western prop
erty and the majority of letters
are not received from curious
transient inquirers.
