Public Urged
Not to Take
Bus Trips
ft Repeating his advice to the
traveling public not to do any
non-essential traveling during the
Lcoming months, F. W. Ackerman,
vice-president of Pacific Grey
hound lines, in a statement to the
press advises people to stay at
homo this summer and spend the
money they would use for a trip
to buy additional war bonds.
Acknowledging that this Is un
usual advice coming from a com
pany whose business is to pro
mote travel, Mr. Ackerman point
ed out that winning the war is far
more vital to everybody than tak
ing week-end or vacation trips.
Mr: Ackerman said that he fully
agrees with the statement made
by Mr. s Eastman, director of the
office of defense transportation, to
the effect that there will be little
room for vacation or pleasure
travel this year, and added that
buses . are already crowded with
military traffic, war Workers, and
other passengers whose business is
important to the nation's welfare.
Stating ; that while many war
workers and others would un
doubtedly, benefit from a short va
cation. Mr. Ackerman believes
that they should relax at home, or
near home, rather than take long
trips. ' They should travel ONLY
during the middle of the week,
get travel information in advance,
and carry as little baggage as pos
sible. This cooperation, he said,
will help relievo the nation's over
taxed transportation f a c i 1 1 ties
which are to vital to the prosecu
tion of the war.

corporation requested those who
have had employment previously

ployment service.-
The company is preparing for
the spinach , pack which will be
underway In May, probably about

The work of lining up pickers

has, been undertaken by' Charles

Gram said that while It is loo
early to determine definitely just
how many trucks will be required
in the area comprising Marion,
Polk, Linn, Benton and Yamhill
counties,, this, job is progressing
satisfactorily.

Winning the war is the most important job confronting us tcay-far
more important than taking a week-end orTracation trip. .
Transportatioa is vital to this victory toward which we are now
advancing. Because buses are already crowded with military traf&c,
war workers and others whose business is important to the nation's
welfare, there is little room for vacation or pleasure travelers.
That's why we say "Please don't travel unless you absolutely have

State High Court Upholds
Validity of Wasco Pi
The state supreme court-Tuesday upheld the validity of tKt
Northern Wasco County Peoples utility district and denied the
Pacific Power and Light company's contention that no peoples
utility district can be valid unless voters in every parcel of terri
tory within the district approve it j
Justice Hay wrote the opinion
which was concurred in by all
other members of the court-He af
firms the decree of Circuit Judge
Carl Hendricks who heard the
case in Wasco county. The , suit
was brought by the district direc
tors against the Power company
and several citizens. ' -
The peoples utility district pro
posal was approved by the voters
at a special election on 'August 15,
1939, with voters of The Dalles
approving and those of Dufur and
Mosier dissenting. The state hy
droelectric t commission later' de
clared the district created but ex
cluded Dufur and Mosier. Defend
ants charged that the district was
invalid because voters of Dufur
and Mosier disapproved it
. Justice Hay said it might have
been a good idea If the .legisla
ture had made a peoples utility
district dependent on a major
ity vote of the whole district ra
ther than let each parcel of ter
ritory decide whether it should
be Included. He added that the
existing law is a concession to
local autonomy.
The first negligent homicide ap
peal to the supreme court, involv
ing the conviction o! Howtrd
Coffman,- whose automobile col
lided with another car on the Mt
Hood loop highway, was upheld in
an opinion by Justice Kelly. J.'F.
Cox, passenger in the second car,
was killed.
. Colfman's automobile was on
the wrong side of the highway. A
1943 legislative session act added
negligent homicide to the list of
crimes.
Another opinion affirmed the
manslaughter conviction of Ernest
D. Sprague in Clackamas county.
The opinion, by Justice Belt af
firmed Circuit Judge Earl Latour
ette of Oregon City.
- Sprague, bis brother Ivan, and
Warren and Elmer Duvaney, bro
thers, all were charged with first
degree murder. All were accused
of beating to death Bud Officer,
owner of a slot machine concession
in a beer parlor on the highway
between Oregon City and Port
land.' ..
