la for each legislator, and providing
for a corps of clerks from the house

FLU SPREADS AS
GOLD CONTINUES
By The Associated Press
Oregon's shivering citlens tossed
log after log Into their furnaces today
In an effort to lick the cold snsp and
stave off the state-wide Influents
wave.
Tbe official weekly report of the
state department of health listed 825
eases of Inflensa, an increase of 706.
Authorities, however,, were Inclined to
view the figures with pessimism for
the unreported cases boosted the to
tal Into the thousands.
Umatilla apparently bore the brunt
of the Illness. There 1151) caaes found
their way into the official report.
More than 800 students out of a
school population of 1800 remained
away from their classes at Pendleton.
In comparison, the densely settled
Portland district reported only 1(10
cases, .
A cheerless sun sent the tempera
ture looming down to new low records
In esstern Oregon. The IB below aero
minimum nt Klamath Falls broke on
lM-yenr-old mark. It was minus at
I'endelton for the second night In suc
cession and 21 below at Baker. The
Dalles had 2 degrees below, a point
warmer than yesterday. La Grande's

since Feb. 15, 1033.
More frigid blasts hit smaller com
munities. Meacham's reading waa ,17
below and Tule Lake, Calif., near
Klamath Falls 25.
Six hundred cases of influenxa,
many of them mild, existed at Baker,
although tbe official report gave the
county only 45. Schools had about 300
empty desks The Klamath county
physician said the disease had decliped
to abotit 100 cases. Officially, how
ever, Klamath county did not report
a single case. Nearly 400 of the 1045
students at La Grande were absent.

- Sheriff Swarts said Thursday that
Westphai appeared to be very much
.frightened when he waa first locked
up and when his mind appeared to be
.giving way he frequently wept and
often enoko of his mother.
v Westphal is a native of Qermany

years. He has been engaged in placer

and Arthur Hendershott, council fi
nance committee chairman, was held
Thursday afternoon, but it was indi
cated that Htte save tentative discus
sion of airport prospects waa under
taken. Hope was seen hy Mayor Large in
the explanation of WPA requirements
given by Colonel Popp. Though WPA
requires a large contribution from the
sponsoring city now than In former
yenra, roughly 20 per cent, he reveal
ed that the Oregon WPA rules permit
a site definitely purchased for a pro
ject to be counted in for Its full value
as the city'a contribution. This offers
encouragement it is felt, .since tbe
sale of the preaent airport and a bond
Issue for a few thousand dollars might
easily bring to Kugene a flrat-claas,
approved airport, and all the advan
tages of scheduled air service.
"Nonetheless," Mayor Large declar
ed, "we are going to go alow on this
and make sure that everything we do
ia wise and right. We cannot afford to
repeat past mistakes, nor to over
reuch ourselves. Neither can we afford
to lag behind in tbe aviation parade.
Between these two alternatives we
must select a middle course."

ciation,' estimates some 1200 men, or
a third of the county's lumber work
ers, are out of work for the time be
ing. The order from the county pre
venting log hauling until rondg are in

3. In case of headache or fever, put
your child to bed and cull your fam
ily physician."
School directors and physicians
stressed the need of keeping the
children at home. Tbe Springfield
high school will not bo closed unless
the number of absentee pupils in
creases greatly, said Snpt. Marschat,
because it was felt thnt these older
students would not heed the warning
and remain at home if they were
not in school.
Mr. Marschat has kept' a check
on the number absent during the past
week. .The number of students re
maining away from school increased
every day until Wednesday when the
Brutlnin school reported 37.2 per
cent of the entire enrollment absent
and. Lincoln reported 22.0 per cent
absent. "" ... ,
"It Is difficult to soy Just how
many of those out of school arc ac
tually ill," said Supt. Mnrsclint. "and
how ninny may bo slnying out be-'
cause of various degrees of common
colds, or avoiding classes for fear of
being exposed."
