Circuit Court
Bailiffs Pay
Is Increased
An increase of 50 cents a day
in the salary of the circuit court
bailiff, raising her stipend from
$3 to $3.50, was ordered Thursday
by Circuit Judge L. H. McMahan.
Since the bailiff is subject to
call at all times, it would be im
practical for her to seek other
work, the order explains, pointing
out that she has been receiving
an average of approximately $33
a month. Increased living costs
have made the addition to her pay
both justified and necessary, the
order declares. Bailiff Is Miss

Defense Class
Interest Up
Draft Lists Combed
For Men Needed in
War Industries
Greatly increased interest in
Marion county defense training
schools is anticipated by W. H.
Baillie, manager of the local
United States employment office,
as a result of the announcement
by Paul V. McNutt regarding de
terment of men in essential In
dustries. Rate of registration in the three
defense training centers of the
county has more than doubled in
the last week. Bailie said Friday.
It is predicted that within ten
days the classes will be crowded
to capacity and it will be neces
sary to establish waiting lists.
Salem, Silverton and Chemawa
each have units of the defense
training schools. Welding classes
are given in all of the centers
and in Salem the training Is
available at any time during the
24 hours of the day.
Welding classes for women
were opened in Salem this week.
Aviation sheet metal classes are
conducted in the three centers for
both men and women. In Salem,
classes are held in marine elec
tric wiring, auto mechanics, mach
ine tool operation and ship join
ery.
Marion Lamb, defense training
officer with the United States em
ployment service, has been loaned
to the selective service board, to
assist in combing the list of reg
istrants for those who might be
more vital in national defense in
dustries than in military service.

Capt. Richard Carberry
Honored for Gallantry
In Bataan Action
Capt Richard E. Carberry,
chaplain with the United States
army on Bataan, PI, who was
formerly pastor of St Paul's
Catholic church in Silverton, was
given two citations by Lieut. Gen.
Jonathan Wainwright prior to the
fall of Corregidor, according to
information received by Arch
bishop Edward D. Howard at
Portland.
Father Car berry's first citation
for gallantry in action, as issued
by the war department, reads as
follows:
a. Captain (Chaplain) Richard Car
berry (0-34S55S.) 4SU Infantry (PS),
at Abucey. Hacianda. Bataan, PI, on
January 24, 142, while the Command
Port of the 45th Infantry (PS) was
undergoing a direct enemy artillery
helling of several hours duration,
heard tho men call out that Sergeant
Jacinto M. Saquinf was wounded.
Captain Carberry with utter disregard
for his own safety, left his fox hole!
jiu Huuca aviue w yaraa w uie
mortally wounded Sergeant Saquing
and remained with him render tat him
spiritual sustenance while enemy
shells burst all around. Chaplain Car
berry's faith and fearless attention to
duty gave tho entire command re
newed hope and calmed tho shocked
personnel at the height of danger.'
A later amendment to tho above ci
tation reads thus: "Richard K. Car
berry (0-34S55S). Chaplain, (Captain),
45th Combat Team, Philippine Scouts.
Chaplain Carberry Is authorized to
wear the Oak Leaf Cluster with his
Silver Star (awarded him by General
Orders No. 21. Headquarters. I Phil
ippine Corps. 12 February, 142) in
recognition of the following act of
gallantry occurring in the vicinity of
the junction of Trails 8 and 29. Ba
taan, Philippine Islands, on April 7.
1942. When the unit to which h was
assigned had made contact with the
enemy forces in prepared positions,
and was subjected to intense and sus
tained fire from hostile mortars, ma
chine guns and small arms. Chaplain
Carberry repeatedly disregarded con
cern for personal safety in adminis
tering to the comfort of the wounded
and generally ministering to the spirit
ual welfare of he troops. His gallant
courage and devotion to duty in re
peatedly traversing the length of "the
convoy while under enemy fire did
by word and deed raise the morale
of the unit to a large extent and
contributed greatly to he subsequent
combat efficiency of the troops."

Repair Bridge
The Dillard highway bridge,
spanning the Umpqua river a few
miles south of Roseburg, is to
be repaired by the state highway
commission at a cost of approxi
mately $50,000, rather than be
ing rebuilt entirely at an expense
of $75,000.
This was announced by R. H.
Baldock, state highway engineer,
here Friday, after the commission
had failed to receive any bids
fornew construction.
The law provides that in cases
where no bids are received for a
highway project the highway
commission may do the job on
