City Wins Point
. In Water Suit
J Judge Charles H. Combs of
Lakeview, sitting on the case
of Gardner Bennett vs. City of
Salem and others involving use
of water by the city of Salem
from its Stayton island intake,
has filed an order in circuit
court here overruling a demur
rer of plaintiff Gardner Bennett
to the city's answer and giving
the plaintiff an additional 20
days in which to reply. The de
murrer was argued here re
cently with Frank McColloch
appearing as attorney for the
plaintiff and Chris J. Kowitz,
city attorney, and Carson and
Carson for the city.
The plaintiff's demurrer was
as to a plea of estoppel and
laches which the city had inter
posed to the complaint. The city
charged that A. D. Gardner, im
mediate predecessor in interest
to Gardner Bennett, had invited
the city to go on the site and
assisted the city in taking over
the lands involving the Stayton
island properties, had assisted in
securing the right of way and
in other manner, and that since
that time the plaintiff had slept
on any rights he might have.
It was stated by attorneys Fri
day that there are evidently two
courses ahead for the plaintiff,
to file a reply which would take
the case to trial on its merits,
pc allow a decrease and appeal
ii the supreme court either from
that or the present finding on
the demurrer.

Taff and Dewey
Clash in Illinois
Washington, Nov. 28 lP)
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New
York and Senator Robert A.
Taft of Ohio may collide head
on in the April 13 Illinois pri
mary in their contest for the
1948 republican presidential
nomination.
While neither has given any
indication of his plans, friends
of Taft said today he is almost
certain to enter the Illinois lists
if Dewey decides to try openly
for the state's 56 convention del
egates. Taft is an announced candi
date, but Dewey hasn't said
publicily that he is running
again for the nomination he won
in 1944.
Politicians generally have
looked on the Illinois republican
situation as unsettled because of
reported opposition within party
ranks there to Gov. Dwight
Green as a "favorite son" can
didate.
Under Illinois law, the name
of any candidate may be enter
ed in a preferential primary
with or without his consent. The
results are merely "advisory'
to the state's delegation but pres
tige is involved.
Dewey's friends have given
notice that his name will be
entered in the March 9 New
Hampshire primary, where for
mer Gov. Harold E. Stassen of
Minnesota, an announced candi
date, already has pitched his
hat.
Dewey forces also are report
ed to be marshaling for a battle
with Stassen, and probably Gen
Douglas MacArthur, in the Wis
consin primary April 6. But
whether the New York governor
will be projected into the Illi
nois contest a week later ap
parently depends largely on
what arrangements Green can
make toward getting a favor
ite son pledge.

Doctor Victor
In Test Case
Seaside, Ore., Nov. 28 (P) In
round one of a test case which
observers here say may set a
precedent for the Oregon med
ical profession, a Seaside phy
sician won a $52.50 judgment
against a patient in Seaside jus
tice court after refusing to ac
cept payment from the patient's
medical insurance group.
The defense attorney, repre
senting both the patient, Arvid
Pearson, Seaside logger, and the
National Hospital association,
immediately filed notice of ap
peal to circuit court.
The suit was brought Tuesday
by Dr. Russell Parcher against
Pearson. Dr. Parcher testified
that before treating Pearson he
advised him he was dealing with
him as an individual and not as
a member of an insurance group.
Pearson denied in testimony
that the doctor had so advised
him.
The plaintiff's attorney, Cecil
Wright, said the physician was
under no obligation to accept
payment by check from the hos
pital association. It was brought
out in testimony that the associ
ation had, on other occasions,
paid claims directly to the in
sured rather than to physicians.
A Seaside physician, who de
clined use of his name, said in
explaining the purpose of the
suit, that doctors fear that if
they accept payment from insur
ance groups, the groups will at
tempt to fix fees.
Order Striping
Paint for Roads
' The county court has placed
an order for 300 more gallons
of striping paint for striping
center lines on county paved
roads which will be a total of
1300 gallons for this winter sea
son. At nine gallons a mile this
will stripe 144 miles of road.
Hereafter the court plans to re
stripe all striped roads every
year. This, said Commissioners
Rogers and Rice, will cut the use
of paint down from nine gallons
a mile to three gallons a mile
and also greatly accelerate the
speed in striping as well as re
ducing the size of the striping
crew by three men.
Main roads so far striped this
year include the one through
Central Howell to Pacific high
way, Turner- Marion- Jefferson
road, G e r v a i s-Butteville, Mc
Nary's corner to St. Paul, cover
ing both roads past Aral's cor
ners, Chemawa to Silverton, and
yet plan to do the South River
road, Liberty road to Liberty
and possibly some others.

More Leaves, Stems
In Oregon Hops
The Oregon hop analytical
laboratory reported today that
Its 1947 operations included in
spection of more than 80,000
bales, and that hop pickers got
more leaves and stems in their
baskets than during 1946.
The average leaf and stem con
tent this year was 8.09 per cent,
compared with 7.69 per cent in
1946. The Oregon average of
8.09 per cent was higher than
the 5.28 per cent in Washington
and 6.17 per cent in California
The state department of agri
culture, which operates the lab
oratory under joint agreement
with the U. S. department of
agriculture, said the reason for
the higher percentage of leaf and
sem content In Oregon Is due to
the wider use of mechanical
pickers In Washington and Cali

Services Held

cants from many faiths Thursday
forenoon as a soft light from a
warm November sun filtered
through the stained glass win
dows of historic First Methodist
church and shed a benediction
over the assemblage. They had
congregated to take part in the
annual Thanksgiving day service
sponsored by the Salem Minis
terial association and for 45 min
utes paused from their ordinary
tasks to give thanks to the Al
mighty for the blessings bestow
ed during another 12 months
period. J
Most of us are too prone to
take too much for granted," said
the Rev. Orville W. Jenkins, pas
tor of the First Church of the
Nazarene as he delivered the
Thanksgiving message, from the
text "Paul Thanked God and
Took Courage." "We would in
deed be ungrateful as a nation
if we did not pause and give
thanks," the minister said. "And
we need to express appreciation
to those who have made our lives
what they are." While admit
ting that "ours is a troubled
world," Rev. Jenkins voiced the
opinion that "in God there is
hope and courage; just so long
as we have God we need not be
afraid."
The free will offering will
be used to further the Bible in

Under a law of the 1947 leg
islature at the first hearing any
who desire to do so may appear
and present oral or written
statements for or against the dis
trict. If the court finds the
lands involved will not be bene
fitted by the district it may dis
miss the petitions. If it finds
they will be benefitted it shall
enter an order setting forth the
name of the district an its boun
daries and shall fix a time not
more than 30 or less than 50
days from the date of the order
for a final hearing.
If, at the final hearing, writ
ten requests for any election are
filed by more than 20 percent of
the acreage in the boundaries as
fixed by the court, the court
then shall issue an order calling
an election for the purpose of
submitting the question of or
ganizing a district to the quali
fied voters therein. If requests
are signed by less than 20 per
cent of the acreage the court
shall dismiss such requests and
enter an order creating the dis
trict.
After creation of the district
the court shall order a meeting
of the land owners for the pur
pose of electing a board of nine
directors, each to hold for three
years except those elected at
the first meeting, three of whom
shall serve for one year, three
for two years and three for three
years.
While the district is given
much more extensive powers
than contemplated in the present
instance it is understood the dis
trict is now being formed solely
to act as a sponsoring organiza
tion to secure rights of way for
clearing purposes. These rights
of way are not deeded to the
government, merely being used
for access to the stream so the
engineers may reach It with
equipment and personnel to do
the clearing work.
County Judge Grant Murphy
is at present absent on vacation
but will be back by December
7 In plenty of time for the meet
ing.
ciales were Norman Freeze, vice
chairman and Sam Randale, dis
trict commissioner. Burris ap
pointed Clark Lethin, chairman
of the camping committee;
Claude Graham, organization,
and Art Lamka, training.
Plans were laid for a border
review December 3 at Pringle
park and a court of honor in
Waller hall, Willamette univer
sity campus, December 10. The
annual dinner meeting of Cherry
City district scoutcrs and their
wives will be held December 19
at a place to be announced.

Harriman had listed a number
of materials which he said
should be covered by "limited"
allocation and priority powers
when the exchange with Taft de
veloped. Generally speaking, allocation
is the authority to say what use
is made of the national supply of
any commodity under control.
Taft said he couldn t under
stand the distinction between
limited powers" and "100 per
cent complete" authority He
said the administration, if grant
ed the authority it is seeking,
actually would have blanket
power to allocate what it choos
es and to the extent it desires.
"I don't think your proposals
are in good faith," Taft de
clared.
Harriman protested that there
is a difference between the ad
ministration's proposal to restrict
the application of allocation
powers, and the 100 percent pow
er Taft was talking about.
