Work of sawing timbers for

started reports County Commis
sion Roy Rice, although it is
expected work on the bridge
will not be started until next
spring. It will be necessary to
construct a by-pass road before
the bridge can be closed for
the new timbers and redecking
which must be put on it. Work
on the timbers is being started
now as extra long stringers are
needed and the company that
has the contract can pick out
the logj from lime to time that
are long enough to provide the
finished product. The work will
be done by Marion county, but
this being an inter-county bridge

Define Powers
Election Judges
Election judges are invested
with tht jurisdiction and au
thority of justices of the peace
during an election and may pun
ish individuals who commit of
fenses at the polls, Attorney
General George Neuner ruled
today for District Attorney
George L. Anderson, Jr., of
Union county.
This was the answer to one of
seven questions asked by An
derson in connection with the
election of PUD directors for
Union county to be held in con
junction with the general elec
tion Nov. 5. Anderson told
Neuner that there are two op
posing factions in the PUD elec
tion. In answering other questions
Neuner advised that each can
didate for PUD director is en
titled t have a representative
"to stand outside the guard rail
at the polls" to challenge vot
ers There is nothing to forbid the
representatives from preparing
lists of voters fo rthe purpose
of checking off voters as they
approach or leave the polls, as
long as no attempt is made to
influence the balloting or cause
disturbance, Neuner said. It is
not illegal to question the cus
todian of the poll books, he
added.
The state election laws per
taining to conduct at the polls
apply to rural precincts as well
as to those in cities and towns
and a candidate's representative
must have written evidence
signed by the candidate validat
ing his capacity as poll watcher,
Neuner concluded.

Realtors Hear
Election Talk
Arguments being presented
by both sides of a number of
measures which appear on the
ballot for consideration of vot
ers at the forthcoming general
election were presented for the
benefit of members of the Sa
lem Board of Realtors Friday
noon by two representatives of
the Toastmistrcss club Wini
fred Pettyjohn and Mrs. Isabel
Childs Rosebraugh. The so
called steelhcad bill and the
three percent gross income
measure were discussed to con
siderable length.
The fish bill was termed a
compromise measure adopted by
the legislature and then referred
to the voters by the commercial
interests. It was intimated that
quite a bit of undercover work
was going on while arguments
on both sides were based on
emotion rather than facts.
The so-called "Little Town
send" measure is unconstitu
tional in the opinion of many
attorneys, it was pointed out
during Friday's panel discus
sion. However, many elderly
people, who would receive $100
from the 3 percent gross tax,
are reported working hard for
its passage.
Travels Far to
See Relatives
Separated from her brothers
and sisters since early in the
1900's, Mrs. Agnes Boyd duy
down into her life savings for a
trip from her native England to
the United Stales and the first
of next week will arrive in Sa
lem for a visit with her only
living broLhcr, Owen Donnelly
of 1110 North Capitol street.
Mrs. Boyd, 65 years of age,
crossed the Atlantic on the
Queen Elizabeth when it marie
ils maiden voyage and now Is
in San Francisco with her two
sisters, Mrs. Florence Farrell
and Mrs. Elizabeth McDowell.
A widow, her husband having
died as a result of injuries re
ceived in one of the bombings
in England about two and a half
years ago, she will return to
England after her visit here as
her children all reside in that
country.
The two sisters that Mrs.
Boyd is presently visiting have
not seen her since 1911, when
with their mother they came to
Portland, Oregon, from Eng
land. Her brother, an employe
of the Oregon slate industrial
accident commission for the past
19 years, has not seen her since
he left his native England to
come to Portland in 1903.

Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon,
Armstrong Declines to Be
Read Out as Alderman
By Hairy Grain
Declining to be "read out" of the contest for the office of alder
man from the sixth ward, in which he seeks re-election, by
innuendo and intimation ot the opposition that even if elected he
will be unable to give the job :
the attention it requires because
of conflicting demands of busi
ness upon his time, Alderman
Tom Armstrong today branded
such reports as being wholly un
true. "I never have and do not
now have any plans which
would take mc away from Sa
lem more than temporarily, or
which will prevent me from
giving whatever time is required
to the business of the city," said
Armstrong.
"Quito the contrary, I plan
to be always available from the
time of the election until Janu
ary 1, during which period the
business of setting up the new
form of city government will
demand amost daily attention by
the members of the council."
Armstrong said he has no
idea whether the opposition to
his candidacy is part of the cam
paign by a group of voters to
elect a "slate" of candidates for
the seven-man council to be set
up at next Tuesday s election.
This group is known to have its
heavy guns trained upon two
other council veterans, Lloyd
F. LeGaric and E. W. Acklin.
During his six years on the
council Alderman Armstrong
has been one of its most active
members and has rendered real
service to the city. As chairman
of the airport committee during
that entire period he has been
largely instrumental in bring
ing that facility up to its present
high point of development. As
chaiman and a member of sev
eral special committees dealing
with war problems he is credit
ed with making Salem one of
the few cities of Its size having
a full time officer to deal with
juvenile problems. He was
chairman of the original civilian
defense committee, and as a
member of the mayor's defense
recreation committee which did
a bang-up job of providing
transportation, housing and re
creation for servicemen and war
workers, as well as being ac
tive in the work of bringing the
USO to Salem.
As a member of the 1945 bud
get subcommittee on salaries,
Armstrong uncovered an item
of $125,000 of unreported city
funds available in meeting gen
eral city expenses and made It
applicable to a reduction in city
taxes.

Schwellenbach for a full state

agreement with the Marine En
gineers Beneficial association
(CIO) to extend the formula to
the west coast."
Meanwhile, the ship owners

Disabled Vets
Good Workers
"Disabled veterans have
proved better workers and the
label of physically handicapped
is wrong as far as ability to do
their work is concerned," said
Marvin Clatterbuck, superin
tendent of Oregon School for
the Deaf, in a Friday noon ad
dress before members of the
Salem Credit association.
"A great many more men lost
their hearing in this war than
in any previous conflict," Clat
terbuck said. "Statistics prove
that 40 percent resulted from
a prii.r difficulty, 30 percent
lost their hearing through sick
ness or would have been deaf
anyway and 30 percent were
made deaf by gunfire and ma
chine noise," he added.
The speaker discussed the psy
chology that must be used In
enabling the deaf person to ov
ercome hi? handicap. Lip read
ing, hearing aids and speech cor
rection devices are used by deaf
school instructors.
Clatterbuck closed his talk
with a short discussion on fenes
tration, the surgery used to re
store hearing loss caused by
disease, and gave ways and
means of preventing deafness.
Clare Lee, Salem area rent
control representative, and his
staff of trained personnel, will
be at the Woodburn city hall
November 7 from 2 to 7 o'clock
to enable landlords in that area
to register their rental property
without a trip to Salem.
