Log Truckers
Demand Raise
Lebanon Haulers Advised
1 by CIO Organizer; 8 per
Cent Increase Sought .
LEBANON la 1 Lebanon's first
strike.. l logging truck drivers,
14 of whom own their tracks, have
stopped working for the Swanson
and i Scott-Gilbert Logging com
panies. Their demand for an in
crease of approximately g per cent
tn the price being paid for the
hauling of logs has been refused
by officers of the companies, who
maintain that they can not meet
the demand,: ,
H. LV Thompson. CIO organiser
for the lumber and sawmill work
ers union is here and met with
logging company represents tires
and the drivers' committee, 'who
maintain that this is technically
not a labor dispute because the
matter disputed is not wages being
paid track drivers, but the price
being paid to truck owners for
the hauling of the logs.
Both companies , are . operating
In the Berlin district and their
ogs go to mills in ''Lebanon, Al
bany and Salem. , : . -
The union organiser speaking
for the truckers Insists that he
will not compromise and the mat
ter is apparently in a deadlock.
LEBANON The city - council
allotted $1200 for the annual sal
ary of an extra city employe. The
question came up as to whether
an added police officer - or an
added fireman wad more- neces
sary. At the last council meet
ing the matter : of having one
man serve as an assistant in both
departments was discussed.' This
week firemen went on record as
opposing such a division. A full
time paid fireman would, keep the
fire insurance rates 'down, they
suggested.
Two new members of the volun
teer brigade were elected. Claude
Durlam will succeed Victor Muet
te. deceased, and Warren Walker
will take the place, tacated by the
resignation of John Summers. '
An amendment to the' constitu
tion was proposed' - which would
automatically retire ; ar member
upon his attaining the age of 60
and which would limit to 25 years,
the time which any one could
serve. It will be voted upon at
the next meeting.
LEBANON New uniforms for
the high school band will be here
by the first of the month. They
were ordered some: time' ago be
cause, of the anticipated Increase
In the price of wool but not de
livered because the full, sum,
$1080 had not yet been accumu
lated. Herbert Ramsay, president
of the Band - Boosters, a group
made, up of parents of students
playing in the band, has an
nounced that the donkey basket
ball game sponsored by the. Lions
club made enough to complete the
payment. . ". ..

Center of World's
Best Gardens
! HAZEL GREEN Hazel Xreen
Garden dub members heard the
reading ef a letter, written . by
Father Schoenoar. now. of Santa
Barbara, to r the ' Portland Rose
society some years ago. V When
Dr. Schoenoor was pastor of the
Catholic church at Brooks, he
spent much time in experimenting
with roses, developing . some new
ones from sweetbrler.
I Sweetbrier, which grows to such
heights in the Willamette valley.
Is not native, but is the eglanterla
Or rubigonosa of Scotland, brought
to Fort Vancouver by a Dr. Tay
lor in 1824. It .has spread over
western Oregon, Washington and
lo British Columbia,
j Dr. Schoenoor received a spe
cial award at the San Francisco
fair, 19 IS, on a sweetbrler from
this section. His greatest achieve
ment was his crossing of . the
sweetbrier with a Spitsenburg
apple to produce a rose-apple,
which looks like the Spitsenburg
and makes delicious preserves.
This most prized tree ' was de
stroyed by the fire that burned
the parish house in Brooks about
1922.
- Father Schoenoor tried to inter
est other scientists, and a noted
one connected with Cornell uni
versity said, "it couldn't be. done."
After the burning' of parish
house. Father Schoenoor moved
his large planting of roses to
Portland. Some years later he
went to Santa Barbara, where he
has developed new plants. One
that Is receiving much attention is
a rose developed from Australian
stock. He considers the soil near
Salem the finest in the world for
growing roses and suggests that
Salem should hare a municipal
rose garden, making a generous
offer to give some of his roses to
the project. Mrs. Percy Henderson
of Labish Gardens told, of experi
ments she has been making with
red and white roses, trying to de
velop a red and white stripped
rose that will be a perpetual
bloomer. .
The club is a member of the
KOAC Radio Garden club.
Original roses were grown in
China 300 years ago, and later
in glass houses by Romans before
the Christian era. Danlask roses
were brought to Europe from Asia
minor in 1600. There are 00 va
rieties of roses today.
The club will meet at the home
of Mrs. Zeno Gregg Thursday,
February 20.
