April 31 WV-The board of governors for the Oregon Bar as sociation criticised administrative practices In the Multnomah county probate court today, attacking prin cipally v "favored list" of five ap praisers who handled the majority of large estates. The review, a result of several weeks of study, cleared circuit Judge Oeorge Taswell of "suspicion' and recommended a larger list of appraisers whose capabilities cov. ered more experience. The report said out of 113 estates appraised at $50,000 or more between 1938 and 1937 Ferdinand E. Reed. realtor, acted In 71 and received $20,000; Arthur C. Callan, realtor, acted In 10 and received $11497: E C. Volland, a carpenter, acted In 41 and received $11,543: William Leeb. a painter, acted in 31 and received $9,480; U. J. Henderson, a salesman, acted In 16 with no total listed. The governors charged Volland. Leeb and Henderson were appoint ed receivers to handle large and complicated estates and Reed and Callan, although commended able appraisers, were held to bave acted with "gross Impropriety." In some Instances fees were described as "Illegal," "excessive," and "exor bitant." The report said Reed occu pied a semi-official court position and was provided with a list of the day's appraiser appointees by the court reporter. "Judge Tarwell has permitted a situation to arise wherein corrup tion and dishonesty could exist, even though they do not, and wherein such suspicious to an out sider, Ignorant of the facts have an apparently reasonable basis," the survey stated.

As an example of the problems he is trying to solve through reor ganization, Mr. Roosevelt said there were four or five lending agencies and It was physically impossible for him as chief executive to see the heads of all of these when some conflict of opinion developed be tween them.

Laiky Attacks Myers Financing Of PUD Deals Condemnation proceeding! by Washington utility districts against ths Puget Sound Power and Light oompany were decided upon only af ter the oompany "definitely refused to discuss terms, price or conditions of sale," Herman E. Larky, secretary and attorney for the Southwest Washington Utility District associa tion, said In a prepared statement today. He denied that tha decision to condemn the properties was s de parture from the policies of the late D. Ross, Bonneville administrator. Lafky charged that Guy O. Myers, New York financier who has been assisting In financing districts In Washington and Nebraska, was a 'stooge" of ths president of En- glneer Publio Service company, holding company which controls the Puget Sound Power and Light Co, Ths condemnation proceedings. Lafky said, "does mark ths end of Guy C. Myers In his plan of nego- tlaitlons' resulting In paying the company price, with fees to Myers of 2 per cent." Lafky further accused Myers of Joining with the power company in recommending .that the districts "drop all litigation and sit back and do nothing while Mr. Myers contin ued negotiating." This plan, he said would have forced districts to pay from 60 to 100 per cent more than the actual value of the company properties. "With a fee of 2tt per cent from ths PUD'S In floating $200,000,000 worth of bonds x x x It Is easy to understand why Mr. Myers and his associates now accuse the PUD at torneys of selfish motives in filing condemnation proceedings." - Shaw Selfish as Euthanasia Fan London, April 31 VP) George Bernard 8haw said today he thought the human race should practice euthanasia the putting to death painlessly of those suffering from Incurable diseases. Shaw, who Is 83, gave the fol lowing comment on his election as vice-president of the Voluntary Euthanasia Legalization society, which hopes to push a bill through parliament legalizing "mercy kill ings." After an, there are circum stances in which It Is rather unrea sonable to persist In living. 'Now that I am In my dotage I am coming around to that conclu sion more and mors but X hasten to add there Is not the slightest hope for humankind that I shall practice euthanasia myself. That may be a little Inconsistent but I always like to be selfish."

Willamina Case Before Labor Council The controversy over employment in construction of the Willamina plywood mill was misrepresented in dispatches from McMlnnvllle, C. W Orary, business agent for the Salem Building Trades Council, declared last night. Crary said the local unions, which have jurisdiction over part of Yam hill county, would stand by a pledge to give work to men who were bonaflde residents of Willamina when the mill Job began, provided they joined the unions, but would not give preference to newcomers over unemployed union members. Ha ssld through a misunderstand ing, men were hired by ths con tractor from an unofficial registra tion list at Willamina and Sheridan that contained names of men who were not bonaflde residents under the terms of ths agreement.

Bonneville Debated at Woodbum, April 21 Acquisition of a cemetery waa one of the achievements of the town of Canby when the munici pality purchased the privately owned power plant some years ago, snd revenues derived from tne- light and water fund mads possible taking over ths cemetery which had been found to be Impoverished fi nancially, was revealed by M. J. Lee of Canby, member of tha city coun cil, one of the original sponsors of the public power movement and one of the most enthusiastic promoters of Bonneville power, Ths meeting was held Thursday night. Under Instructions of ths wood- bum Chamber of Commerce, Mayor H. M. Austin explained ha had called the meeting to discuss the question of obtaining power from Bonneville. Rodney Aioer, wooa burn publisher, was chosen secre tary of the meeting which was at tended by 60 persons. After more than two hours of dis cussion In which Lee absorbed tht major portion of ths time. It was1 voted that ths mayor, who was chairman of the meeting, be author ized to appoint a committee of seven Woodbum residents to canvass the territory and report back their find ings as to whether Woodbum wants Bonneville power or not. Austin an nounced that he would name the committee within a few days, then a mass meeting will be called to de cide the matter. Beck Sends Substitute- M. F. Grtgnon, assistant to Rob ert W. Beck, chief engineer of the Bonneville project, made belated ap pearance at the meeting, explaining that he got lost and could not find Woodbum en route from Portland Orlgnon represented Beck who was unavoidably detained. Orlgnon ex. plained as best he could questions propounded to him by A. a. Leary West Woodbum hatchery owner, and Henry Chappelle, farmet of the district. Fear that only one trans mission 11ns would not suffice to protect the numerous poultry Incu bators In ths valley In event of de struction of the main line by falling trees was expressed by Leary and this was answered by orlgnon say ing that all trees in proximity to the line will be removed. Leary also voiced satisfaction at the service of ths present private company which, he said, tn emergency, could always hook up with other plants In case of power trouble. Tf ths government doeent man age Bonneville any better than It does a lot of other projects, such as railroads, I cant ses when much will be accomplished,' taid Leary. "If ths city of Woodbum wsnts Bonneville power they had- better buy out ths old oompany which you can probably get at its present phy sical value and If you get Bonneville you will be on ths Portland-Eugene line and can make your own rates," said Lee. - Concerning the matter of taxes, Lee did not enter Into a detailed ex planation but did admit that the consumer will ultimately pay the taxes entailed by operation of a mu nicipally owned plant.' Leary seemed skeptical about the project stating that towns would get the cream of the power business while rural districts and farming country would be overlooked. Lee related that Canby had In bank on April 18, $23,000, from rev enues from the light and water fund, In addition to the ownership of a Money Coming Orlgnon, pinch hitting for Beck, declared that ths law passed by the last legislature In Oregon was not entirely favorable to the Ideas of Bonneville administration. Orlgnon also expressed belief that an addi tional appropriation would be forth coming In amount of three and a half million to provide feeders for the main line so as to take care oi outlying districts. Lee criticized Albany for obstruct ing ths PUD movement In Linn county, asserting that It was a self ish town. "We have power to sell but the cities must also consider ths nlnter- land," said Orlgnon, "and we are not here to foster movements to cut up operating utilities Into sections," FRACTIONAL HEALTH By J. A. Winett of the , Capital Drug Store Ta estimate ths number of per sons that know, through one or mors manifestations, some thing Is amiss In their bodies snd yet do nothing about It would be merely hazarding a guess. Many conclude that they art at least elgthy-flve or nines) per cent healthy. 1 and oonsldei the fractional balance Is not matter of great concern, while as a matter of fact, even one per cent disorder may In sidiously, or otherwise. Increase to a degree where healing measures of the doctor of medi cine are permanently hindered. The joys of life are measured by ths unmistakable exuber ance of perfect health not eighty-five or ninety per cent health. .
