Protest Lo dged
WitliMcKayon
Tuin Turn Dam
About 70 Lincoln and Benton
residents appeared before Gov.
Douglas McKay Monday to pro
test plans for the Turn Turn dam
on the south fork of Mary's river.
Turn Turn dam is a part of the
wiuamette project.
Opponents contended the Turn
Turn crests at the same time the
Mary's river crests at Philomath
so that the tributary crest is not
added to the down-river waters
at peak flood time. It also was
argued that the Willamette river
water backs up Into the area.
Speakers said the project re
cently was listed as having won
presidential approval. I
Elmo Wehnert, spokesman for
the delegation, told Governor Mc
Kay that both the Lincoln and
Benton county courts were op4
posed to the dam. as were the
farmers union and grange. I
The project had been aimed at
flood control, along with creation
of surplus water for elimination
or pollution downstream and a
recreation area. ' ..
Wehnert quoted a survey, which
pointed out that flood control
could be achieved by clearing the
stream and removing a down
stream dam.
Governor McKay said he had
no knowledge that the Turn Turn
dam was a part of the Willamette
valley project but he would con
fer with Willamette river basin
officials and issue a statement

Deer Rescued
From Floating
Ice, Later Dies
PORTLAND, Feb. 20 -(JP)- A
deer marooned on floating ice
cakes in the Columbia river was
rescued yesterday, but died today
despite eiiorts or tne rescuers.
Bonneville administration em
ployes sighted the deer precar
iously keeping its balance on ice
floes coming down the river at
dawn. They closed sluice gates
and tried to get the deer.
But the animal backtracked to
another cake, and all day kept at
least 30 feet from the power
house.. So a huge rake, used to
clear trash from the dam, was
lowered into the river. The deer
floated into it, and was hauled to
shore.
The animal was cold, trembling
and exhausted. They tried to get
it to eat The deer refused. They
massaged its legs and put blankets
around it, but early today the deer
died, apparently of exposure.

Are You Happy
Club' Reported
Growing Fast
MEDFORD. Feb. 20 -UP)- The
latest thing in clubs here is the
Are You Happy club?"
It started only last week, and
the president says there are now
300 members from Seattle to San
Francisco.
There are a number of attract
ions: No dues; no meetings; no
mail; and the minute you join you
become a vice-president
There's only one president
though. He's Joe R. NeiL a fur
niture dealer here, who started
the club with the idea of remind
ing people they are happy.
- There's also another feature.
When one member asks another,
"Are you happy?" the answer can
be as long as needed to get all
small gripes . out of the system.
Then, presumably, the man is
happy again.
Old members bring in new ones,
and so the club grows.

Tax System
Killed in Idaho
BOISE, Fb. 20-CVThe Idaho
house today killed 23 to 35 a bill
to establish withholding tax sy
stem for collecting the state in-
rcome tax, a major proposal of the
government reorganization com
mittee. The action came after a heated
three-hour debate during which
the house refused 19 to 39 to lay
the bill on the table. The senate
previously had passed the meas
ure. ,
Meanwhile, the senate investi
gating committee continued its
probe of four state departments
and took steps to impound the
books and records of State Pur
chasing Agent Harold Boyd.
Also being investigated by the
senate group are the attorney gen
eral's office, budget bureau and
commissioner of insurance.
Leaders of both parties stressed
before balloting on the withhold
ing tax bill that it was not their
party's bilL Rep. Howard Hecht
ner (S-Nez Perce) minority floor
leader, declared "it is not a demo
cratic bilL It is sponsored by the
