County Needs
School Space
The state unemployment com
pensation commission expects
to vacate its present quarters in
the school administration build
ing at Marion and North High
streets early in 19S0, the Salem
school board has been informed
through the medium of a letter
written by Grant Murphy, Mar
lon county judge. The transfer
of the commission to the new
office building now under con
struction will release some 32,
000 square feet of space which
will approximate the needs of
the county during the time the
county is engaged in the con
struction of a new court house.
Judge Murphy said that the re
lease of the space would come
t an appropriate time insofar
as the county is concerned.
While expressing a willing
ness to lease space in the school
office building to the county, the
board did not commit itself, stat
ing that uncertainties involved
precluded a definite statement
at this time.
Montana Lawyer Has
Show at Elfstrom's
The old supposition that all
great artists had to starve in a
garret in order to achieve great
ness is just so much "back
wash" in these modern times as
testified by the exhibit of water
colors by James M. Haughey,
currently showing at the Elf
strom art galleries.
Mr. Haughey is a lawyer es
tablished in practice in Billings,
Mont Son of a Billings physi
cian, Haughey majored in art
as well as law, graduating from
Kansas university and later
studying under Leroy Greene,
famous landscape painter of
Montana.
This summer Haughey visited
the Oregon coast, painting the
scenes that appealed to him
which resulted in the . present
one-man show at Elfstroms.
An exhibitor throughout the
midwest including Chicago gal
leries, the Montana artist has
gained an enviable reputation
as a modern painter who han
dles watercolor in true trans
parency with a gift for harmon
ious coloring.
The exhibit lasts through Oc
tober 11 which will be followed
by two one-man shows. Beat
rice Appia of Paris, France, and
Howard Fisher of Portland.

B-36 Bomber
Soars Over City
Salem residents were cheat
ed of a view of the world's
largest bomber Air Force day,
but they not only saw and
heard the big B-36 Tuesday
evening, but also felt it.
The big plane, which on its
first trip over Salem flew too
high to- be visible to most resi
dents of this area, arrived over
Salem shortly after 6 o'clock
and circled the city four times.
Flying so low that the props
on its three engines, which
push rather than pull the plane,
were clearly visible, the huge
plane shook the homes of many
residents.
The plane, on its return trip
to the home base at Fort Worth,
Texas, from McChord field, has
a gross weight of 300,000
pounds, is 163 feet long and
has a wingspread of 230 feet.
It carries a crew of IS men with
a relief crew of six men and
its bomb bays contain 12,300
cubic feet. The six pusher-type
engines total almost 20,000
horse power.

The Portland General Electric Co.
vs.
SALEM ELECTRIC
To All Electric Users,
Court actions, such as those by the Portland General
Electric Co. endeavoring to keep Salem voters from having
their government power and the low rates of Salem Elec
tric, are ommon practice of Wall Street corporations in
tent on maintaining their lucrative monopolistic position.
See Federal Power Commission Report number 59.
The purchasing of government power at wholesale,
operating on a non profit basis, building of a distributing
system and making rate reductions to owner users out of
the proceeds; are required of Salem Electric and other gov
ernment power distributing systems by the Bonneville
Act and other Public Power Acts of our United States Con
gress. Salem Electric pays all of the taxes required bv law,
including an occupational license tax to the Cities of Salem
and West Salem. Its operations are entirely within the laws
of the land, even to meeting the requirements of the State
Public Utilties Commision. which rejects the filing by and
regulation of Municipals. Public Utility Districts, and other
customer owned systems, though monopolistic PGE in
terests would have it appear that Salem Electric operates
illegally.
Over the protests of Salem Electric, during its baby
hood, PGE got a franchise question on the ballot knowing
that it would be defeated. It was. by B3 votes. That company
did not then complain about the cost to our city for an
election, but today when an election may not be favorable
to their exclusive position, they make big issue of the elec
tion costs. It could be that some of their lucrative accounts
would get away from them, and save for themselves the
lucre.
Those of Salem Electric who have government power
as intended by the Acts of Congress, feel that they should
make attempts to place a franchise question before the
citizens of Salem so that everybody may enjoy their low
cost government power and the service our Salem Electric.
However, we must look forward to citizens committees
and taxpayers leagues, paid for and sponsored by private
monopoly as well as law suits that would take away your
right to vite. These schemes are designed to destroy your
inherit rlchts and freedoms guaranteed bv nur constitution.
They would take away your rights and throw away the
keys.
