Furnkh Home
For DP Family
Clubs, service organizations,
churches and individuals have
been generous in their response
in connection with the furnish
ing of a home for the Ardo Ta
rem family of displaced persons
who will take up their residence
in Salem some time next month.
- Carlton Greider, who as pro
gram director of the YMCA has
been actively engaged in solicit
ing furnishings for the Tarem
home, reported Tuesday that the
' family's needs have largely been
filled. Two dressers or chests
could be used while a tredle
sewing machine in good state of
repair would be acceptable.
Since the residence is located on
a considerable plot of ground, it
is presumed garden tools will be
needed.
The Tarems, the husband and
wife and three daughters, are
now in New York City visiting
with friends, after their ocean
trip from Estonia. They expect
to visit bpringfield college
where Tarem was a student for
a two year period during the in
terval between the two World
wars.
"People have been entirely
unselfish and the project has
been a good example of direct
action,", said Greider in com
menting concerning the genero
sity of Salem folk. Agencies af
filiated with the Community
Chest have been particularly ac
tive. Owens Talks on
Legion Virtues
The virtues of the American
Legion, its principles and pur
poses were explained in some
detail during Tuesday's lunch
eon of the Salem Kiwanis club
by Kelly Owens, state comman
der and a member of the group
before whom he talked.
Owens spoke of the growth of
the Legion since its inception
back in 1018 in Paris and said
it now is the largest organiza
tion of veterans in the entire
world with a membership of
(,100,000 scattered in some 31,
000 posts.
Answering his own question,
"What has made us great?"
Owens replied: "We are pledged
to uphold the constitution of the
United States."
In listing a few of the proj
ects of the Legion, Owens spoke
Df the national child welfare
program on which some $65,
000,000 has been spent; the jun
ior baseball program Involving
8,000,000 boys and the Beaver
Boys' State program now under
way on the Oregon State college
campus. The more than 200
boys involved spend the week in
learning the fundamentals of
good government.
A half dozen members of the
Salem junior baseball were in
troduced while the drum and
bugle corps provided a selection.
Owens requested listings of
rooms in private homes for del
egates who will attend the state
legion convention August 2-6.

Liberals Win
Canada Election
Toronto, June 28 P The
liberal parly of Prime Minister
Louis St. Laurent has won a
smashing political victory remi
niscent of the 1036 landslide of
the Roosevelt New Deal.
Returns today from the na
tional election showed the lib
erals Canada's nearest equiva
lent to the democrats had won
193 of the 262 seats in the new
house of commons. They led in
all provinces but Alberta. It was
the greatest party triumph in
Canadian history.
The progressive conservatives,
the main opposition party, took
42 seals. The other commons
members will come from minor
parties.
The Canadian party domin
ating the house of commons
names the government. The lib
erals now have a mandate until
1954. That will run their in
cumbency to 19 years they
took over from the conserva
tives in 1935.
It was a personal triumph for
St. Laurent, who has been in
politics only eight years. The
soft-spoken French-Canadian, 67
years old, assumed the prime
ministry last November when W.
L. MacKenzle King bowed out
because of ill health.
Some authorities believe the
Egyptian obelisks were really
giant sundials.

Blast Sprayers
Save Cherries
Hood River, Ore., June 28 UP)
Big air blast sprayers and prop
wash from planes were used
here today as orchardists fought
to save their cherry crop.
A heavy morning rain threat
ened to rum the crop for the
fourth consecutive year.
as iieidmen checked the or
chards for splits, the growers
sought to blow droplets from the
cherries. Their success was un
certain at mid-day.
The cherry harvest, rolling
into its second week, promised
to be one of the best in years.
Growers had expected to ship
160 to 180 carloads of fresh
cherries, in addition to the usual
brining. The first carload went
out Friday and three more have
been sent since.
The peak of the harvest was
expected next week.
Beginning in 1946 growers
have been plagued by harvest-
season rains with resultant split
ting of the cherries. Sunday
morning a heavy rain fell, but
it was accompanied by a brisk
wind and damage was slight.
This morning's rain came with
a light wind and 80 per cent
cloud blanket.
