Potatoes Sold to People
Washington, May 14 W) Rep. Tollefson. (R., Wash.), wants to
know why, it It's true, that people in his state can buy better
potatoes for their livestock than housewives can get and cheap
er, too.
A constituent, Tollefson said, wrote him that he bought a 100-
-wpound sack of potatoes for $3.50,
I plus three per cent sales tax,
3 Union High
Elections May 16
Votes on the question of dis
solution of three union high
school districts will be held next
Monday, May 16, from 2 to 7
p.m. at the various school hous
es of the elementary districts
making up the union districts.
Voting will be on the basis of
standard time and not daylight
savings time, states Superintend
ent Mrs, Agnes C. Booth, as the
notices posted called for stand
ard time and were posted before
the daylight savings situation be
came prevalent.
The three districts Involved
are St. Paul union high school
district No. 3; Turncr-Aumsvllle
district No 5 and Hubbard dis
trict No. 6, also known as the
North Marion district.
In each case bonds have been
voted for the district, they have
been validated in proceedings in
circuit court, sites have been se
lected and bond sales are now
only awaiting outcome of Mon
day's elections.
In the North Marlon district
No. 6 the matter of dissolution
was voted on at a previous elec
tion held September 16, last
year, and lost by a vote of 393
to 211.
Petitions for Monday's dtssolu
tlon election were in the hands
of the district boundary board
for some time awaiting either
outcome of litigation or solution
as to the effects of an amend
ment by the voters of the state
changing qualifications of elec
tors at school district elections.
This amendment had made
doubtful the question of Just
what registered voters would be
eligible as school district and
regular voting precinct lines do
not coincide. This matter is now
straightened out under new leg
islntion.
Another new law also provid
es that such dissolution elections
cannot be called oftener than ev
ery two years, which, If the pro
posal for dissolution fait next
Monday, will give time for the
districts to proceed with their
plans.
Dr. C'rum Reappointed
Gov. Douglas McKay an
nounced today that he has re
appointed Dr. Penn C. Crum of
Portland as a member of the
atate board of examiners In
optometry. Dr. Crum will serve
for a three-year term.
while his next door neighbor
bought six tons of potatoes for
feed for cows and paid $6 a ton,
without sales tax.
"There was not a potato in his
six tons, the constituent wrote.
that was not larger and better
than any spud in my sack.
Tollefson sent the report to
Secretary of Agriculture Bran-
nan with a request that he be
informed why the department
purchases only the best grade
of potatoes under the price sup
port program, leaving poorer
grades for the housewives.
Citizens of his district com
lain, he said, that potatoes they
buy are "rotten, scaley and of
poor grade" because no others
are found in the market,
Nagel Talks
Of Television
New York, May 14, u.B
Conrad Nagel looked tired. "It's
a long bridge from silent mov
ies to television," Nagel said
as he nibled away at grapefruit
and ham and eggs for "lunch.
The man from Keokuk, Iowa,
has been drudging along the
road since 1918, the year he
made his first movie. That
was the year he made "Millie
Women."
Nagel is master of ceremonies
for the Goodrich Sunday tele
vision quiz show.
'There isn t five minutes of
television on the air today that
wouldn't be better if it was film
ed first, edited, then shown to
the television audience," he said.
'That's what television will
come to, eventually. But now
it's having growing pains."
Pre-filming would give better
ighting, better timing and bet
ter entertainment, Nagel said.

state archivist, and published in
a booklet.
The names are listed alpha

Listed chronologically are the
legislative sessions, and on the
cover page is a picture of the
house of representatives of 1895.
An introductory note says:
"This list of members and
chief clerks of the Oregon leg
islative assembly is designed to
serve as a general name index
to the published House and Sen
ate Journals. Men who were
sworn in, and who later lost
their seats to successful contest
ants have been included, al
though the fact that they lost
their seats has not ljeen indicat
ed. The state legislature con
vened from the first at Salem,
Oregon, and met on the second
Monday of September of the
even-numbered years from 1860
to 1882, and on the second Mon
day of January in the odd-num
bered years beginning with

wtih the exception of 1865,
1898 and 1920, in which years
no regular session was held."
Morse Says Demos
To Have Hard Time
' Washington, May 14 l Se
nator Morse (R-Ore) thinks the
democrats are helping inad
vertently to re-elect him in
1950.
During debate on a proposed
2 percent retail sales tax for the
District of Columbia, Morse said
the democrats "are going to
have an awfully hard time beat
ing me in 1950."
He said the fight he was mak
ing against "the democratic
sponsored sales tax will be great
campaign ammunition in Ore
gon. Do not forget that."

Platoon Plan
Being Formed
Dallas Seasonal work for
both adults and young people
of the Dallas area is offered by
a plan formed with the co-oper
ation of the Dallas high school
guidance department under the
direction of Roy Dancer.
Using a platoon system, work
ers will go by bus to the Alder
man farms near Dayton for
strawberry picking and bean
picking. One bus load of high
school students has already been
organized and another is
planned for adults if sufficient
interest is shown.
Transportation will be at no
cost to the worker. Strawberry
picking will begin on June 6
and bean picking will start at
the conclusion of the berry sea
son. If weather holds good, lit
tle layoff through the summer is
foreseen.
Busses will leave the high
school in the morning and re
turn there in the evening. Crews
will work 514 days per week,
quitting at noon on Saturday.
At least 2000 pickers are
needed for the seasonal farm
work in that area this year.
Strawberries arc Mid to be bet
ter than average and pickers
should be able to make at least
$12 per day.
Use of Water Funds
In Portland Stymied
Portland, May 33 ") The
plan to solve Portland finan
cial troubles by raising water
rates ran into a snag today.
Finance Commissioner Or-
mond R. Bean said he doubted
that the city council has the
power to raise revenue that
way.
The city charter did not con
template use of water sales to
raise revenue, he said, adding
that only a vote of the people
could authorise four-fold rate
increase.
'The unfair and unequitable
distribution of the tax burden k
wouia more man onset lis value
as a revenue raiser," Bean said.

Millions of books have been written since man first learned to
record his thoughts in written symbols. Many of these have been
valuable; others were hardly worth reading, and few possessed the
Qualities of literary permanency.
The book most essential to the happiness and welfare of hu
manity is the Holy Bible. It is educational in itself, touching every
phase of human thought and knowledge, and is the only book that
bridges the gap between man and his Creator.
Writing may be educational, inspirational, promotional or
merely entertaining. Books deal with the arts and techniques of
life, the lives of people and the movements of history. Essentially
the Bible deals with the spiritual elements of life and man's
relations to God.
Wise men keep their Hands on the Bible as tKe source of ulti
mate truth and an infallible guide to right living. They know that
beyond the material is the spiritual, beyond today is tomorrow, and
beyond the world is God.
