East Salem Turns Toward
Fifth War Bond Campaign
East Salem, June 21 With the schools closed the fifth war loan
drive in the suburban and rural districts will have their quota
raised by the work of district chairmen. Frank Doerfler of the
East Four Corners is again ru
ral chairman and has appointed
his (fcommittee chairmen. These
chairmen will be women in most
instances" and they will have to
have volunteer help in making
the canvass. As they are all
busy housewives with the older
children in the homes away
helping in the harvests an ap
peal Is being made for every
member of the communities who
can possibly buy a war bond to
see that their district gets the
credit, for the purchase.

Valley Sanitary
Survey Asked
Portland, Ore., June 21 (U.R)
- The Oregon state sanitary
authority has proposed a sur
vey of the Willamette river
valley to determine the best
methods of refuse disposal in
every municipality on the riv
er, Harold F. Wendel, Port
land, chairman of the group,
announced Tuesday.
Representatives of the sani
tary authority and the League
of Oregon Cities will talk to
Gov. Earl Snell Wednesday in
an effort ' to have $9,000 in
stale funds appropriated for the
survey.
Oregon State college has of
fered the services of its ex
perts, a contribution of ap
proximately $4,500.
Members of the sanitary au
thority were encouraged by the
progress of up-river munici
palities in stream cleanup pro
grams. At present the Eugene
voters have authorized a 5-mill
tax levy for five years which
will yield $325,000 for a sewer
system.
A 2 VI -mills levy for three
jf years was voted by the Salem
'populace. The levy will raise
about $120,000 for its propos
ed disposal plant.
Corvallis is now planning to
levy a sewer-user charge.
In Newberg a surtax of 10
i cents per 100 cubic feet of
water is collected for plans for
sewage disposal and Lebanon
is collecting a 10-mill tax, ap
proximately $12,000 annually.
Other indications such as a
program of , the national pulp
and paper industry for riddance
of stream pollution and the an
nouncement that 33 Oregon
municipalities . have planned
sewage disposal projects after
the war have also encouraged
the sanitary authority.
Portland will not come under
the survey because it has al
ready begun plans for cleanup
f the river and the Columbia
plough.

rived from the Greek "tele,"
meaning afar, and "graphein,"

Conviction of
Folkes Upheld
The Oregon state supreme
court Tuesday upheld the con
viction and death penalty im
posed on Robert E. Lee Folkes,
young negro dining car cook
for the "Lower 13" slaying of
Mrs. Martha Virginia James in
January, 1943.
The decision was made by a
5-2 vote, with Judges George
Rossman and Percy Kelly dis
senting. The Los Angeles negro was
convicted in Albany on May
28, 1943, of first degree mur
der, and sentenced to death in
the state's gas chamber.
Mrs. James, the bride of a
navy ensign, was slashed in the
throat as she lay in berth lower
13 of a Southern Pacific pas
senger train passing through
Linn county January 23. She
was from Norfolk, Va.
The entire court agreed that
Folkes' purported confession,
consisting of a stenographer's
memoranda, should not have
been submitted to the jury as if
it were a signed confession.
The majority opinion, by Jus
tice James T. Brand, held that
in spite of this technical error,
there was enough evidence to
convict Folkes.
The minority opinion asked
for a new trial on grounds that
the introduction of the confes
sions prejudiced Folkes' rights.
The minority also held that
Folkes' rights were prejudiced
when Circuit Judge L. G. Lew
elling, presiding judge at the
trial, allowed the prosecution
to introduce prior accusations
of other crimes, even though
Folkes was innocent of the
crimes.
