Road Program
Given a Boost
Chances of the oiled road res
toration program In the subur
ban area around .Salem being
completed this fall brightened
materially with news that the
teamsters' strike In connection
with several local gravel plants
had been settled and the plants
are expected to reopen next
week.
The county court had assum
ed the attitude it would not ask
its gravel truck operators to
cross a picket line which meant
that as long as the strike con
tinued the work. on paving the
extension of South 25th street
into the airport would be held
up, but also all of the oiled road
repair work in the immediate
environs of Salem.
Included in the roads affected
are Auburn road, Monroe, Haw
thorne, Evergreen, Park, Sun
ny view, Fairview and part of
Hollywood avenues. Also on the
agenda is replacing of D street
the entire distance from the city
limits to Lancaster drive work
Fischer road, patching of
Lansing avenue, as well as. re
construction of the Croisan road,
work on the Kei.er-Chemawa
road and some other patching on
roads both north and south.
While the Salem area is 'the
last it is expected the oiling
crew will reach, had the strike
continued to the time it was
reached in all likelihood these
improvements would have had
to be abandoned as the county
is dependent on gravel and rock
plants in the vicinity for work
around Salem,

de
ists who go to Seattle for train
ing.
The second week-end of each
month has already been as
signed the Salem unit for its
flight training, when the men
have qualified and planes ar
rive.
Before they can fly, however,
the men must fill in their appli
cation forms for flight training
and have them approved by the
navy's bureau of personnel.
Buckley told the men Friday,
that immediately after he re
ceives the forms in Seattle he
will contact the bureau for ap
proval of the applications. Ap
plication forms are available in
Salem either at the Salem Naval
Air Facility or by contacting
Lt. Ernest Eldridge (USNR),
commander of the air unit here
In his speech at the ceremonies
Friday Capt. Buckley, who with
several other naval officers from
Seattle flew here for the event
told the some 15,000 in attend
ance that "Salem was selected
for the location of the Naval
Aviation activities, not because
the available facilities differed
greatly from those of other lo
calities in the state of Oregon
but because you had energy, de
termination, and a genuine and
gratifying desire to see the U. S
Navy become a working part of
your community."
As one of his concluding notes
the captain said:
"I congratulate the people of
the state of Oregon, and particu
larly the citizens of Salem for
your decision in welcoming the
Naval Aviation aboard."
The convention was to elect
officers this afternoon, with
Sam M. Bowe of Grants Pass
slated as the next state com
mander. Now vice commander,
Bowe is the only announced
candidate for the office.
After lively debate, delegates
voted late Friday to eliminate
the office from the Legion con
stitution as an economy measure.
The motion carried by a margin
of only one vote. No change was
made in the district commander
setup.
To Increase Dues
Another resolution adopted re
quests the state to establish a
system of suitable detention
places for wards of juvenile
court in Oregon.
Stephen F. Chadwick of Seat
tle, past national Legion com
mander, addressed the Oregon
Legionnaires at their Friday ses
sion. He told them that the Le
gion must raise more money to
carry on its rehabilitation and
welfare projects. He urged the
Oregon department to approve
an Increase of 25 cents per capita
in dues to make this needed mon
ey available. He said the pro
gram already had the approval
of 26 state departments.
Fund Exhausted
Chadwick said the Legion's
original rehabilitation fund, es
tablished with an endowment of
$5,000,000, was. virtually ex
hausted. The 25 cent boost in
dues would yield an estimated
$800,000, based on the Legion's
membership of more than 3,-
000,000.
Delegates approved a constitu
tional amendment providing for
establishment of a child welfare
commission in t h e Oregon de
partment, patterned after t h e
commission in the national Le
glon.
Also approved were a resolu
tion setting up a youth athletic
commission separate from the
junior baseball commission, and
an amendment creating a stand
ing committee to establish mem
bership quotas. The delegates
authorized a new three-year con
tract with the Pacific Legion to
publish the Oregon Legionnaire,
official monthly publication of
the Oregon department. The ed-
torial advisory board was in
creased from three members to
five.

City of Ambato
(Continued from Page 1)
The strikers voted not to
work for the territorial govern
ment after a special meeting was
addressed by ILWU President
Harry Bridges. He arrived from
San Francisco yesterday and
confidently announced the
strike is "in no danger of being
lost as long as Matson Naviga
tion company ships don't sail.
Matson is the major mainland
Hawaii carrier.
Bridges told a news confer
ence that no law passed by the
Hawaiian legislature could force
loading or unloading of island
cargoes on the Pacific coast.
But even as he spoke, canned
pineapple was being loaded for
the first time since the ILWU
struck May 1 for a wage boost
of 32 cents an hour. A new non
union firm, Hawaii Stevedores,
Ltd., was putting the shipment!
aboard the Isthmian freighter
Steelmaker. I
Asked if he thought the strike i
was near settlement, Bridges re
plied:
"More and more Issues are be
ing raised all the time." '
One way to settle lt, he added,
would be arbitration by a board
of Hawaii businessmen not con
nected with any of the "big
five" sugar agencies.
The union repeatedly has de
manded arbitration. Employes
have relected lt. contendlnir thev
should not be bound in advance I
to accept an award on wages by
third 'parties who have no finan
cial responsibility.
Bridges referred to the "big
five" as "feudal lords" and said
their attorney James Blaisdcll
"got the horse laugh" in Wash-!
ington last month when he told;
a senate committee thert was no
big five.
Plaza sent a message to the na
tion asking farmers to rush milk
and food and all citizens to do
nate blooH for the earthquake
victims. He has 200 physicians
and scores of nurses with him in
Ambato.
All traffic In Ambato was at a
standstill. Streets radiating from
the central square were blocked
with debris of wrecked build
ings. However, telcphocn com
munication with Quito was re
stored this morning.
Buses were commandeered to

The reason for making the
date of September 30 tentative
in the bills as being drawn is
an objection by City Recorder
Alfred Mundt to having elections
on the last day of the month,
which interferes with payrolls
and other clerical business.

the charter amendment not less
than 30 days must elapse be
tween calling the election and
date of election. On referen
