PAGE TWO THE BEND BULLETIN. BEND, OREGON THURSDAY. AUGUST 21, i9S2' Chamber Names Group to Study Railway Proposal PRINEVILLE, Aug. 21 To f ur- mer a inorougn exploration ox possibilities of gaining rail trans portation lacinties lor south Wheeler county. Grant rountv and the John Day valley lumber industry area, steps were taken at a luncheon of the Prineville- urooK County Chamber of Com merce Tuesday for Joint action of the John Day chamber and the local group. A committee com posed of William B. Morse, chair man, L. A. Sell, H. S. Mersereau, Stuart Sheik, Harry C. Fowler ana w. m. Myers was named irom the local chamber. A dele gation from John Day, including that city's mayor, E. Van Voor his; its chamber manager, Irving r. riuzeiune, ana Lan &. Scott, said that they would return and ask the chamber there to name a like committee and the two will work jointly in a full investiga tion of routes of rail lines, the extension of which is proposed to supply rau facilities into the heart oi ine state. Industry Renresented Leaders of discussion current ly uimed at a proposed rail expan sion represent the pine lumber industry. John Day has some of ine states major pine mills and an oi its lumber must be trucked to railhead at Seneca, terminal point of a 50-mlle railroad owned and operated by the Hines lumber company interests. This road taps ine ourns Drancn oi tne union Pacific at Burns. The John Day men yesterday reported that they have given consideration to a re habilitation of the old Sumpter vauey narrow guage railroad, which formerly extended nearly 100 miles from Baker.. It was owned and operated by the Ore gon Lumber Co., which abandon ed it several years ago. Plans also have given consideration to seek ing an extension of the Hines lum ber road north for 27 miles to John Day. A third alternative road proposes extension of facili ties from the line of the City of rrineviues municipally owned line east 123 miles to John Day. It was agreed by both John Day and Prlnevllle Interests that a through road, from the Central Oregon line up the Deschutes river gorge to Bend, which, with Great Northern and Western Pa cific hookups now provides ah Inland through freight line to California points as far as the bay area and Los Angeles, to tie in with the Union Pacific line at some point- in southeapirn Ore gon wlU be an attainment most desired. i The John Day'rooregenhUlveg yesterday cite that a potential tonnage oi low graao clirome and" oilier ores and a huge deposit of lignite coal should be of interest tt rail development. They declare that a need for rail transporta tion . prevails In order to bring these latent resources closer to ward attainment. It was revealed that the pro posed extension of rail lines Into Grant county or east from here up the Ochoco creek valley Is looked on without enthusiasm by the cattle ranchers of the two neighborhoods. Cattlemen cite that their herds are moved todny almost exclusively by huge motor trucks and trailers. Chinese Reds May Find Men In Kremlin Have High Price By PHIL NEW80M (United I'reaa Foreign Analyst) A cynic once remarked that everyone has his price. It may be assumed in Russia's dealings with Red China, the men in the Kremlin also have a price. And the 13-man delegation from Peiping now in Moscow undoubted ly is finding it high. The announced purpose of the Moscow negotiations is to broaden the military and economic collab oration between the two powers. umoriunaieiy tor the m nese Reds, the Russians appear to be In the stronger bargaining posi tion. Moscow never has been noted for the modesty of Its demands when given the upper hand. Complicating the nosillon at the Chinese negotiators is the stubborn stand taken by the United Nations in ine Korean truce talks at Pan munjom. The Chinese seem caught between two alternatives, each bearing a high price tag. Either thev can accent the U. N.'s refusal to return some 30.- 000 Chinese prisoners of war who have renounced Communism and with it a loss of face which would reverberate throughout the Orient, or they can ask continued Russian war aid at whatever price the Russians wish to put on it, une published figure has nlaced Russian war aid to China at S25.- uuu.uuu a month. are asking something in return It may also be assumed the Rus sians are placing a high price on their nnancial and technical aid In the industrialization of Man churia and on the part they will play In strengthening the Chinese- Russian mutual aid pact against a resurgent Japan. How stiff this price might be was demonstrated by Russian de mands during negotiations over the 30-year pact of friendship, al liance and mutual aid signed in 1950 before the situation was com plicated either by the Korean war or the Japanese peace treaty. At that time Russia demanded of its great and good friend : A labor force of 500,000 men to be made available to the USSR for an indeterminate period. Control of key Chinese ports which would allow Russia to dom inate completely the Yellow Sea. Somo 8,000,000 tons of food stuffs, mostly grains. Far-reaching concessions to mi nority groups in Northwest China, mostly non-Chinese Moslems close ly akin to others already under Russian rule. The Chinese refused to give up control of their ports but apparent ly did make some concessions in Sinkiang Province in the north west. There the Chinese agreed to the setting up of Kusso-Chlnese companies to exploit oil and min cral resources with Russia getting It may be assumed the Russians half the proceeds. (Continued from Page 1) School Bus Law Reminder Made Oregon's law requiring motorists to stop for school buses that have slopped to load or unload children will soon on 1 1 for renewed ullcn tion by Oregon drivers, the slate (raffle safety division reminded to day. Many liuses have been transport ing farm workers during the sum mer, 'in operation to which the stop law does not apply. The division sa id this fact contuses some motorists who are not aware that stops must he made only when the bus is carrying school children. When Hie big yellow vehicles resume regular school runs early next month, a loading or unloading stop means cars approaching from both directions must also stop, the the division pointed out. Traffic so stopped may then proceed, pro vided no children are leaving the bus or crossing the roadway. The law. adopted by the 1!M9 state legislature, exempts from stopping only vehicles approaching the bus from the opposite direc tion on the far side of a roadway hiiving thine or more lanes. dential areas of the city. A move, spearheaded by members of sev eral Bend churches, had resulted a proposal that the restriction be lifted to permit expansion of church facilities. Serious Problems Although members of the com mission .agreed" that several churches face serious building problems, they agreed with the planning commission that the pro posed change would Infrinire on the rights of property owners adjacent to cnurcnes ana otner non-dwellings In residential areas. In its recommendation, the plan ning commission listed the follow ing four reasons for opposing a cnange in zoning: 1. From a standpoint of fire safety it is not advisable that rear and side yard requirements be re- aucea. 2. In deference to adjoining and affected property owners the plan ning commission does not feel their present property rights should be encroached upon. That to reduce side and retu yard requirements is ;ieu afe, an unwarranted en oi'oaehmcnt, . ."Therilannine commission feels that such a change as proposed would be discriminatory and ar bitrary and not In the best interests of the community as a whole, 4. The planning commission feels the present regulations arc the. minimum that should be allowed for adequate light and air space and to reduce the same would be unwise. Members Present Three members of the Presby terlnn Church. Mrs. Homer Thomas, George Mnrshnll and Ralph Brown, were present at the meeting and spoke In favor of the proposed change. A letter from the Ticnd Klwanis club urging Its adop tion was also read. The commission approved a res olution to place two charter amend ment proposnls affecting street Improvement work on the Novem ber 4 gctiernl election ballot. The amendments would clarify the charter In regard lo the method of making sh eet improvements in Ihe city and would permit the city lo handle Ihe work when satisfactory bids are not received.

The request was made by Duncan McKay, local attorney, who said he represented several Interested persons who were ready to spend $100,000 in a devel opment in the area of the proposed vacation. . Commissioners agreed to make an Inspection trip to the area, lo cated at the south city limits, early next week. . The commission discussed the possibility of an anti-noise ordi nance for the city and instructed City Recorder W. T. Thompson to write to tne league or Oregon Cities for more Information. An application for i change of beer license for the Shamrock from Raymond M. Retherford to N. G. and Rose I. Young was referred to the chief of police for investi gation. . Ordinances Read Two ordinances pertaining to licensing were read for the first time. One would change the theater license fee from five cents per seat per quarter to twenty cents per seat annually. The other would change the fee for auctions from $5 per day to $50 per year. only member ot the commis mlsslon not present for the meet ing at the city hall was G or d o n Randall. . Pay Rolls in State Higher Than 1951 Expansion of lumbering in Curry county and stepped up. dam build ing in Umatilla resulted in these two areas leading 36 Oregon coun ties by a wide margin in pay roll gains for the first three months of 1952, according to tabulations just completed by the State Unemploy ment Compensation Commission. Oregon's 17,488 covered employ ers reported W7,75S,3SS paid dur ing the first quarter to an average of 309,152 employes. The number of workers dropped 0.7 per cent, but pay rolls were 4.9 per cent higher tnan m early taai. Plywood and other new mills In the southwest corner of the state helped Curry county's wages to more than double in the past year. jumping from $653,841, to $1,323.- 851. Of 1,418 workers reported last March, l.uuu were In wood pro ducts, which had 82 per cent of the pay rolls. More, than half of Umatilla's $8,301,802 reported wages were from construction, including 3,380 of the 8,271 covered workers. Its pay roll increase was 42.6 per cent. Other counties gaining more than 10 per cent since the first quarter of 1951 were Harney, Clatsop, Was co, uoos, Hood Kiver, Jefferson, Tillamook, and Douglas. Multnomah's 6,065 employers paid out $128,400,213 for the highest first quarter since the war, but the number of employes dropped 1.352 to an average of 138,428. Lane county in second place followed a similar pattern, but Douglas, next In timber output, gained 3 per cent in employment and 10.4 per cent in wages. Coos, another big lumber area, held fourth place, while Mar ion, Linn and Umatilla were next with Jackson dropping to eighth. Sixteen counties showed employ ment gains and 24 reported pay roll increases over early 1951. Covered wages paid in Deschutes county were 5.7 per cent lower than a year before.

We say that because, so many times, they say so in words like those above. Those words make us happy, of course happy to know we sell a car which means so much to those who own it. ' But they make us feel just a little bit sad as well sad to realize all the years of fun such folks have been missing for no good reason at all. For the fact is this: If you can afford any new car, you can afford a Buick. You can afford the thrill of bossing around that big Fireball 8 Engine that purrs forth" a mighty flow of power. You can afford the gas bills as any owner of a 1952 Buick will tell you because that high compression, valvein-head marvel gets a lot of miles from a gallon of fuel. You can afford the extra luxury of a real million dollar ride the. silken smoothness of Dynaflow Drive the extra room and com fort and style that have put Buick popularity right up at the top of the list, right next to the "low-priced three."
