Alleged AWOL Howard Per ry Eslick, Olympia, Wash., has been booked at the county jail here by Deputy Sheriff Larry Wright as allegedly AWOL from the US army at Hamilton field, Calif. Road Names Changed The county court Friday ordered change in names of two rural roads. West Hollywood street which intersects the Pacific highway in the Hayesville dis trict had its name changed to Ward road on petition of John E. Versteeg and others. The name of Bailey road was chang ed to Dierks road on petition of Milton A. Dierks and others. This road parallels the Oregon Electric track in the Claxter area between the Claxter and Chemawa roads and the reason for wanting a name change is that a city mail route is expect ed to serve the area and there already is a Bailey street in Sa lem which would cause confu sion. No protest was received by the court to either name change.

Seeks Repeal of Pistol Permits Alderman Howard Maple said today he would introduce in the city council Monday, night a bill to repeal the ordinance requir ing buyers of revolvers or pis tols to get a permit from the chief of police. The ordinance, enacted by the council three or four years ago, requires the purchaser to have written authority from the chief and to have at least three char acter witnesses. The ordinance is now consid ered unnecessary, because it is believed the state law covers the matter. The state act requires a complete record of the sale, the serial number of the gun and other information, and also re quires one witness.

The two committees are con sidering President Truman's proposal that the new agency be set up to develop the Colum bia river area's resources. "As governor of my state,' said Langlie, "I am here today to voice, with all possible em phasis, my sincere conviction that this CVA proposal is not in the public interest of the state of Washington, or of the nation, and should not be enacted into law." Robins Cites Reason Robins said: "We in Idaho are unalterably opposed to the CVA for. many reasons we favor development of our resources through exist ing agencies, generally in ac cordance with the coordinated plans of the bureau of reclama tion and the corps of army en gineers. "We believe it is entirely un reasonable to now ask congress to give a new board of three men, no member of which is re quired to have had any experi ence in resources development, the power to determine whether this plan and these reports should be accepted or set aside." Said Pittman: "In my opinion, the establish ment of a Columbia valley ad ministration is not necessary and most certainly contrary to the best interests of the region and the nation. "The majority of the people living in the western states are not prepared, and never will be willing to give up their rights under existing law for control and use of water and subject themselves to the mandates of a three-man board not responsi ble to the people and clothed with authority which can prop erly, under the constitution only be vested in the congress of the United States." McKay said he opposes plac ing the economic and political future of Oregon and the entire Pacific northwest in the hands of an autocratic federal corpor ation." McKay Opposes Autocracy He said the legislation under study would provide control and domination by three men who must subscribe to the philosophy of the CVA bill before they can be appointed directors. The Oregon governor said CVA proponents do not want the administration to be answerable to congress. I am unalterably opposed to any such philisophy as contain ed in the CVA bill," McKay said. "I am a strong advocate of an aggressive and immediate continuance of the plan now well under way for Columbia valley development. It is prac ticable, has already accomplish ed much for the area and should not be delayed by further con sideration or adoption of any new or uncertain plan." Here's What Makes Rain Split Cherries What makes sweet cherries split? Well, to put it in plain English, Biology Professor John R. Roberts of Pacific university explains that sweet cherries split after precipitation because osmotic pressure draws water through the permeable mem brane covering. Or if you want a more com plicated explanation, the rain seeps through the skin of the cherry, dilutes the juice and breaks the skin under the pres sure. Dr. Roberts suggested today that if cherry trees are given a good shaking after a shower, al most no cracked fruit will re sult. Illiteracy Alibi For Illegal Driving William L. Ashford of Scio told District Court Judge Jo seph B. Felton Friday that he couldn't read or write, but his alibi for driving without a li cense proved he could talk too much. Ashford told the judge he had been refused a driver's license for illiteracy and that conse quently he had been driving for the past 14 years without one. Judge Felton Imposed a $50 fine, which with the usual $5 costs of cases in district court, meant that Ashford squared ac counts at a rate of nearly $4 a year for driving.

Early Day Tippling Evidence Uncovered Lebanon, June 24 Caches of early lay tipplers were revealed this week when walls of the old Lebanon auction house went down and floors came up. Old timers say the building was erected 69 years ago, serv ing the town for many years as a livery stable. They also add that more illegal refreshment was bought and consumed on the premises than any other spot in old Lebanon. Evidences remain, for as walls crashed cascades of bottles fell in heaps from hiding places be tween the walls. All were well drained, workmen sadly ob served. Under the floor were more caches, including many of the odd Chinese pottery jugs used in days gone by for the trans portation of wines. A few of the latter were salvaged but for the most part destruction was com plete and several truckloads of flasks and bottles were carted off to the dump. The landmark will be replaced by a modern building for Smith Kuehl, International Harvester dealers.

Late spring frosts and the prolonged early dry weather are blamed for the poor yield this vear with representatives of the company stating that the grade harvested is also consider ably poorer than that ot last year. Nearly 400 acres of peas were planted by 21 growers of the area under contract to the proc essors. Prices ranged from $118 per ton for top quality down to $33 for the lowest grade, ap proximately the same as the grower received last year. Most of the Canby area yield this year graded out at a second, third and fourth, bringing prices of $104, $85 and $65 per ton. The crop averaged less than one ton per acre as compared with the ton and a half and more last year.
