Harvest Operations
Demand Linn Labor
Albany Employment in the
bean fields is holding steady
this week, with as many, if
not more, working at the har
vest operations as worked last
week, Bill Sloan, manager of
the local office of the Oregon
State Employment Service
states. He estimated that some
4,500 are presently being em
ployed in western Linn bean
yards.
There Is still a call for pick
ers who are willing to camp near
the yards, or who can supply
their own transportation from
town, the local OSES manager
reveals.
Sloan said that the bean har
vest has not yet shown signs of
slowing up. Some growers have
completed harvests, but othersl
are just starting picking, he add
ed.
Corn harvesting will probably
start within the next two weeks
Sloan said, and there will be a
heavy demand for pickers.

Exhibitors Early to Get
Fair Grounds Space Ready
With the Labor day opening a little more than three weeks
away, the 167 acres of Oregon
minute activity.
Most of the construction and
but a crew of 50 workmen is busy
spreading tanbark in the horse
show pavilion and judging rings,
and countless other tasKs.
One of Manager Leo Spitz
bart's many worries at present
is how to curtail the luxuriant
growth of the zinnias, beds of
which cover much of the fair's
park area. The long stemmed
flowers have been cut back three
times thus far in the hope that
they will be in full bloom dur
ing fair week.
Some commercial exhibitors
are already on tne grounas
readying their display space. A
number of livestock, particular
ly horses, are expected to be on
the grounds sometime next week.
Members of the 4-H and Future
Farmer organizations have been
daily visitors to the grounds,
preparing the junior dormitory
for occupancy by 3000 young
sters during fair week.
Sir Crockett, stage designer
and painter for Producer Helene
Hughes, is expected in Salem
next week to begin, decoration
of the huge, movable stage In
front of the racing grandstand.
The colorful background, which
is the set for the fast moving
Helene Hughes revue, is all hand
painted and Crockett has assur
ed Spitzbart this year's job will
be the most colorful yet.
One task apparently is fin
ished. George Jirka, whose job
it is to rid the grounds and build
ings of gophers, moles and rats,
has wagered Spitzbart there is
not a rodent on the fairgrounds.
Jirka's riddance campaign has
gone on for over five months.

Officials Worry
Over Rats in Park
Portland, Aug. 13 P) Park
and sanitation officials argued
hotly today over the condition
of Laurelhurst park.
They agreed on only one
thing: It's the rats.
That is, the rats thrive o n
whatever condition Laurelhurst
park is in.
Frank D. Cramphin, inspector
of the division of food and san
itation, said the park "is a cess
pool with a decorative lighting
system.
"The lake there", he added,
it one of the consistency of
sewage.
This drew outraged cries from
the park officials, who insisted
the lake was fed by fresh water,
had adequate drainage outlet and
insisted there was no chance for
sewage to get Into the water.

Spokane, Aug. 13 W) Pacific
Northwest industries will be hurt
by -the 4 per cent freight rate
increase granted western rail
roads, says James A. Ford, man
aging secretary of the Spokane
Chamber of Commerce.
He asserted yesterday that the
rates in this area are "already
too high" and the west is at a
competitive disadvantage with
the east on freight charges.
Ford listed the apple, wheat,
pine manufacturing, aluminum
and frozen food industries as
those which will be hardest hit.
Permission to raise the rates was
given the railroads Thursday by
Interstate Commerce commis

Forger Admits
Check Passing
Albany, Aug. 13 Dozens of
check forgeries in Linn and
eight other Oregon counties and
in Washington were cleared up
with the arrest in Sweet Home
of Ted Norman Drake, 19, Ham
ilton, Wash., according to De
puty Sheriff George Miller.
Miller reported that Drake
made an oral confession of writ
ing numerous personal and
company checks, and of cashing
about half a dozen of them in
Albany in the last several
months. Drake, the Linn deputy
said, admitted that he dipped
into a cash register for about
$200 at Bob's Grocery store in
Foster, June 20, that he stole a
check writing machine from the
Cefir Lumber Co., at Alsea, and
confessed to stealing a similar
machine and 300 blank checks,
plus $70 cash, from the Santiam
Lumber Co., in Lebanon earlier
this summer.
Drake was arrested in Sweet
Home by police of that city. He
has been the object of a search
of city, county and state police
for more than a week.
When he was arrested Drake
had five forged checks in his
possession, Miller reported.
According to the officials
Drake has allegedly cashed bad
checks in Linn, Lane, Benton,
Lincoln, Yamhill, Marion, Des
chutes, Tillamook and Polk
counties this year. Drake told of
ficers, it was asserted, that he
had also forged checks in Wash
ington.
Drake was lodged in the coun
ty jail and will be araigned Sat
urday. The total amount Drake al
legedly receive from the clever
ly-forged checks, Deputy Miller
asserted, "runs into thousands
of dollars."
