Demo Thinks
Morse Strong
Portland, Aug. 20 W) It will
take an outstanding candidate to
defeat Sen. Wayne Morse (R.,
Ore.), a democratic party
spokesman admitted here today
Jack Redding, director of
publicity for the democratic na
tional committee, here to survey
the Oregon political situation,
described Morse as the demo
crats' most "formidable" oppon
ent in the northwest.
The chance of unseating Morse
depends "entirely on the candi
date . . . you can't beat some
body with nobody," he said.
He added, however, that dem
ocrats have a good chance to
win two of the four representa
tives' seats in Oregon.
Naval Training
Due Month's End
Salem's Naval Air Facility
will in all probability not re
ceive planes for reserve training
. until the end of this month or
later. Meanwhile, however, re
serve pilots have been filing out
their applications for flight or
ders so they will be able to fly
when planes do arrive.
When here for the establish
ing ceremonies for the facility
Capt. A. E. Buckley, command
ing officer of the Naval Air Re
serve Training Unit at Seattle,
stated that the planes were in
Seattle to be turned over to Sa
lem as soon as the Salem volun
teer unit members were cleared
for flying.
Another delay has been en
countered recently though.
While the planes are available
the bureau of supply and ac
counts has not cleared for main
tenance equipment for the
planes. The planes now are be
ing used for training cruises at
Seattle.
Of the Salem volunteer unit
members 10 have already been
cleared for flying by the bureau
of personnel and by the chief of
Naval Air Reserve training. Ap
proximately 30 other aviators
and ground officers have com-
pleted their applications and
sent them to Seattle and for the
aviators a speed letter ha al
ready been sent to the bureau of
personnel for clearance.
All of the aviators will have
to have their physicals before
their applications are forwarded
to the chief of naval air reserve
training, where flight orders are
issued. The first big group of
men will go to Seattle Saturday
to receive their physicals, with
between 15 and 20 making the
trip aboard a R4D being sent
here from Seattle.

Fire Hazards
Are Continued
Albany, Aug. 20 Linn coun
ty's fire warden, Mel Crawford,
said Friday that the forest fire
danger for the next several
weeks will be "quite critical."
Weeks without any rain at all,
and several months since the last
major rain, combined with hot
weather and fairly low humidity
to make Linn county's half mil
lion acres of dry forests very sus
ceptible to a major fire, the war
den reported.
The fire that burned over 35
acres of partly cutover land on
Courtney creek, near Crawfords-
ville is now under control, Craw
ford said.
inursaay nignt tne lire pa
trol extinguished another forest
fire near the Willamette Nation
al Lumber company mill near
Foster, Crawford reported.
The fire, which was started by
a flying spark from the mill s re
fuse burned, burned off a quar
ter acre of wooded land nearby
"Dry winds from the north
that have been prevailing for the
last week, add to the fire dan
ger," the Linn warden said.
"We have been riding on luck
so far this summer," he added.
Tate Again Mentions
Approach of Deadline
W. M. Tate, chairman of the
Marion county ACA committee,
again calls attention to the Au
gust 27 deadline for requesting
adjustments on 1950 wheat acre
age allotments. Notices of allot
ments were sent to producers
August 12.
"Appeals must be made in
writing to the Marion county
ACA, Post Office building, Sa
lem. Allotments were set at 84
percent of the usual wheat acre
age," Mr. Tate states. The aver
age of the years 1945-1948 with
adjustments for abnormal con
ditions is considered "usual."
Appeals should show how the
allotment does not represent 84
percent of the usual production.
Anyone who does not receive
a notice of allotments may as
sume that his allotment is zero
and that he is not eligible for
price support on any wheat har
vested in 1950. Those who re
ceive no allotment notice and
can show that they raised wheat
in one or more of the years
1947, 1948 or 1949 mav aoaeal
for an allotment and should do
so before August 27.,

NO BUGLAR FOR FINAL CAMP
State's Sole GAR Survivor
Plans to Answer Last Call
By BILL LOGAN
Portland, Aug. 20 (U.B Theodore A. Penland, 100-year-old com
mander of the Grand Army of the Republic, was sad today be
cause there won't be a bugler to play taps at the GAR's last encampment.
Penland is one of live surviving memDers oi tne uak who
plan to answer the final roll'p
call at the GAR's 83rd and
final meeting at Indianapolis,
August 28.
"I wish there could be a
bugler there to sound the final
call for us," he said "But none
of the remaining boys are bug
lers."
The old soldier said the as
sembly of four survivors would
take place where the original
Grand Army formed under Gen
John A. Logan in 1867 the
Claypool hotel.
Penland will have no succes
sor as commander. He will head
the GAR until, as he put it,
"the books are closed." All
told there are 17 members alive,
but only five will be there
He was born January 23. 1849
in Goshen. Ind., the son of a
farmer. He served with the
Indiana volunteers, principally
on picket duties. He was on
the fringe of the second battle
of Bull Run in which his father
was fatally wounded by a rifle
ball.
People were tougher then,"
he declared. "My father walked
three miles with a hole in his
belt-line before he dropped
dead."
Penland attributes his long
life to travel, clean living and
walking.
He once walked 1,400 miles
on the trail to California after
appomattox.
He enlisted at the illegal age
of 16 by writing "18" on a

of the trip $40.37. We caught 4 blue backs total weight 3 '
lbs.. Those darned fish cost $11.53 per lb. figure it out for
yourself. Just think, if we had have stayed home we could
have invited 59 friends taken them to STEVENSON'S RES
TAURANT & fed them all a full dinner of our ROYAL FISH
'n CHIPS. The moral of this story is, if you want fish, eat it
at STEVENSON'S & save your money, a few trips like this
one would make the down payment on a new car.
I'm getting ready to sell FISH 'n CHIPS, the old English
way, at the STATE FAIR be sure & see me there. My wife
will run the restaurant, she says she is going to open at 6

I was on the skirts of the
crowd at the first encampe-
ment in Indianapolis, and I did
n't hear any of the speakers,"
he reflected. "This time I'm
going to give a ship-launching
speech that I composed during
the last war."
He recited it without a slip
in a firm, resonant, drill-sergeant's
voice.
It began: "Guide this ship to

said. "Take this down. A Jeep

Then he told of his trip in
1936 to Gettysburg for the un

cated to both the union and
confederate armies.
"After they lit the gas flame
that will burn forever, they
rounded up 800 Boy Scouts and
