Governor to Call It Soon;
: Recall and Suit Talk I
Fading Rapidly
(Continued from Page 1)
tall and test suits to occupy the
attention of the big family under
the non-existent dome. Allstate
officials and particularly the state
board of control have stayed as
siduously on the Job this year.
The past week came and went
with no individual or group step
ping up with the rumored recall
petitions and getting them out in
to the highways and byways in an
effort to unseat Governor Martin.
The j governor has dignified the
newspaper reports of a possible
recall by continued references to
It ift his speeches and has gone so
lur us ii nay mai uc wuum uui
shy away from a fight but would
be the first to sign a recall peti
tion and to help thereby to deter
mine what kind of a eovernment
the citiiens of Oregon want.
Prospect of Recall
Election is Remote
Unless some untoward incident
develops the calling out of the
" guard, the -wounding of some
striker by the state police inci
dents not liable to happen with
the strike trouble waning this
writer does not believe a recall
move will go beyond newspaper
surmise or hotel-lobby talk. The
people who would like to see the
recall men like Peter Zimmer
man. Richard Neuberger, et al,
lack money to finance a campaign
- and even if they possessed such
money the new barrier against
paying solicitors of recall peti
tions is r a sizeable barrier1 in a
quest for 51,000 petition names.
Ray Gill, head of the state grange,
may dislike Mr. Martin greatly
but he is not going to stick his
bead up and take the lead in an
out-and-out recall movement; he
would find too great a desertion
within his own ranks.
Attitude of Hanzen
Highly Significant
Henry Hanzen, right bower of
the Meier administration, has
- been associated with the move to
test Governor Martin's eligibility
to office as well as to recall him.
This Hanzen denies in the current
issue of his Portland paper. In a
leading editorial he terms Ralph
Watson, Oregon Journal writer
who makes such an accusation, a
"liar" and in another article Han
sen declares that he favors neith
er the test suit on Martin's salary,
nor a test suit on his right to hold
office and draw a major-general's
pay, nor the circulation of a re
call petition. One may interpret
this out-and-out stand by the ex
Warwick of Oregon politics in two
ways: either he never favored
such a move on the existing chief
executive or else he once did but
found out' in the astute Hanzen
manner that the brain child of his
possible fatherhood was unpopu
lar with the public hence should
be speedily and publicly thrown
Into the river.
The press of the state has been
extremely friendly to Governor
Martin la discussing salary, elig
ibility and recall matters. Repub
lican editors such as the rock-ribbed
Ingalls of, Corvallis have re
versed their typewriters and for
once at least written fulsome com
mendations of a democrat in of
fice, a feat so unusual it deserves
attention in the annals of Oregon
political history. Whatever comes,
the general can depend on a
friendly press. Illustrative was
-the unanimity with which the
scribes assembled at the Hood
River convention pulled them
selves to their feet to applaud
General Martin when he made a
rip-snorting off-the-record speech
at the annual gridiron banquet.
Witfle the spotlight logically
play on the snowy head of the
governor, Ruf us Holman and Earl
Snell are basking in some of the
reflection. There has been no at

Elizabeth Stockhausen Has
Role of Manager at Salem
Producers' Co-op Cannery
A woman. In the role of can
nery manager is something new
in the annals of packing plants
in this section, but this has been
the rule at the Salem Producers
Cooperative Packing company
since the present ! canning season
opened. She is iMiss Elizabeth
Stockhausen, bookkeeper at the
cannery since it was founded by
150 growers 14 years ago.
When Frank Gibson, manager
since the co-op's; inception, re
signed - nearly two , months ago
due to ill health, Miss Stock
hausen became acting manager,
which post she has since filled
with few persons! any the wiser.
She will continue in this capacity
until the board Of five directors
of whom Paul Wallace Is presi
dent, selects a successor.
Is Well Prepared
Naturally the years she has
worked there made it easy for
her to step into the managerial
shoes with assistance of the di
rectors, but Miss Stockhausen de
clared yesterday! she has no
thought of continuing in that
post and that she will be lust as
happy handling her old work
when the directors see fit to
choose a permanent successor to
Mr. Gibson, who has retired to
his farm in Polk county.
A number of f applicants are
seeking the post, though with the
1935 canning season nearly half
over, it may be that a man to
fiil the vacancy will not be se
lected until after the present
season.
Tonnage About Same
Last year the producers packed
about 2125 tons of fruit, includ
ing the tonnage of dried prunes
handled, and the operations this
is young, capable, extremely per
sonable and prpved himself a
statewide vote getter, a man who
could line up great flocks of votes
in the spring and fall campaign
of 1934. Ahead is the governor
ship, the senatorship who can
tell?
Mr. Snell is following the pro
cedure of the late Hal E. Hoss. He
has in his organization two ardent
supporters of Mr. Hoss: Miss
Phillips, capable secretary and
the well-known "Doc" Riley. The
latter is keeping steady check on
the newspapers, seeing to it that
letters go out by the score to per
sons who have received business,
social or political recognition, let
ters of condolence to grieved fam
ilies, and so on. Dr. Riley is on
the stump, too, whether the oc
casion be an Italian bazaar or a
G. O. P. picnic and Mr. Snell him
self is making constant contacts
through bis speaking engage
ments. At the moment Snell is the
best white hope for the republi
can party to regain a considerable
measure of control under the
dome.
There will be some shakeups
shortly in the state liquor admin
istration but the higher-ups are to
stay which means the entire com
mission and Jack Allen and Eu
gene Keltyj The latter, while a re
publican, fs an j excellent execu
tive, a friend of Arthur McMahan,
commission chairman, and unless
he rises so high the democrat pie
eaters can s.ee hilm, Kelty can de
pend on his jobj Report is that
District Supervisor Hickam who
came onto the scene with ex-Administrator
Sammis, will be oust
ed, for real or fancied insubordin
ation. McMahan is taking a great
personal interest in the adminis
tration of the liquor commission,
giving attention to details which
heretofore the commission de
pended entirely upon its hired
managers to attend to.
The report has been circulated
that the old commission loaded
the state with expensive commit
ments in liquor stocks which the
new administration could not sell.
Actually the old administration
made commitments which did not
Involve a cash outlay because its
working funds were limited and
every dollar it laid hands upon
was being poured out for relief.
The new commission chose to re
tain more cash, cut. down its pay
ables but meanwhile the state has
had to borrow more money to pay
for its 1250,000 monthly relief
bill. In the main it was tweedle-
dee or tweedledum whether the
state should drain its liquor fund
to save borrowing and perhaps
lose some discounts or borrow
heavily for relief and build up its
liquor funds. The state's own
brands of liquor proved quite
popular but the sellers of adver
tised brands and the makers of
blended liquors kicked so loudly
the commission liquidated its own
O. S. L. C. stocks.
The job held by A. A. Schramm
is being solicited for ex-Governor
Ben Olcott by many of the latter's
friends, most active of whom is
Oswald West, himself an ex-governor
and a brother-in-law of Ol
cott. West has heartily disliked
Schramm for years and has never
failed to put Mm under fire at
legislative sessions when the small
loan act came up. The State Bank
ers' association is strong for the
Incumbent superintendent of
banks-and will bitterly protest his
removal. Under the Meier admin
lstrauon, jkuius Hoiman was
ready to vote for Fred Callister of
Albany for state; bank superinten
dent but that project flopped and
Schramm held his Job. The state
board of control, serving as the
state banking board, chooses the
banking superintendent and the
governor , has " only one vote.
Schramm , and Olcott are both re
publicans. Reappointment of Charles Pray
as state superintendent of police
was expected and merited. In the
four years which J have passed
since Smedley Butler came out to
set up the organization all he
did wasto.make deadlines and
collect his fee Pray has. done an
admirable Job of organization.' He
has 437 men, well-trained, well
groomed and efficient-so much
so that the Oregon state police
system has attracted national at
tention. ' " ;rv .
year,wni run aboot the same ton
nage, the acting directors antici
pates. Operations for the first
half of this- season will be. com
pleted Monday, when the berries
and the sour cherry packs ' are
wound up. The second , half of
the operating Bason will ; start
with blackberries about the mid
dle of August, with pears ' and
prunes, both for canning i and
drying, to follow.
Pear Crop Promising
The pear crop belonging. to" the
co-op growers is reported to be in
excellent condition, with pros
pects of a quality crop. Largest
pear growers for the cannery are
Paul Wallace and the Reynolds
estate. For the pear season this
year, automatic pear peelers,
tried last year, will not be used,
inasmuch as no saving was ef
fected through their use. last
season.
All last year's pack, with ex
ception of pears, has been well
cleaned up.
During Gibson's years as man-'
ager of the co-op, the original
plant was constructed, and, re
constructed about three years ago
when fire destroyed the original
plant. A large prune drier to
handle surplus prunes of the
grower members was constructed
last year and put into use last
fall for the first time, and last
year the cannery sunk its own
well to insure an adequate and
economical supply of water at
all times.
Miss Stockhausen, prior to tak
ing the office post with the pro
ducers, had considerable experi
ence as an employe In a New
York brokerage office handling
western dried fruit and cannery
products.

CHOICE OF BHD
Following the 60-day period
during which he will assist with
the transfer of the water utility
here to municipal management.
T. Delaney, present manager
for the Oregon-Washington Wa
ter Service company, will be trans
ferred to the company's main of
fice at San Francisco, he stated
last night.
Asked for a statement in con
nection with the selection of Cay-
ler van Patten as manager, by the
city water board Friday night, Mr.
Delaney said:
"Having known Mr. Van Patten
during nearly all of the six years
I have been in Salem, I consider
the city fortunate in securing him
as manager of the water system.
He is a fine man for the position.
I will cooperate in every way
possible during my stay here, to
ward getting the new system
started."

Projects Given
Okeh in Report
Congressman James W. Mott
has been advised by the war de
partment that the report of the di
vision engineer on the flood con

lic No. 339, 73rd Congress), re
commends the construction of
flood control works in 29 dis
tricts or flood control areas on
the lower Columbia in Oregon.
The report recommends that
one-half of the first cost of the
construction of these works be
borns by the federal government
and one-half by the districts bene
fitted or by the state and districts
combined. It also recommends
that the cost of maintenance after
construction be borne by the dis
tricts benefitted.

"There is no question in my

Political Move Seen
Close friends of Governor Mar
tin ventured the assertion that
the signers of the petitions were
not as much Interested in the
investigation as they were in em
barrassing the executive.
Included among the signers of
the petitions were Peter Zimmer
man, Dr. A. Slaughter and a num
ber of other persons not in sym
pathy with Governor Martin's
policies.
Petitions containing the names
of several thousand persons op
