Watch for Announcement of Opening Date and Exact Location McKay Talks to Grange Meeting Ontario, Ore., June 13 W) Oregon's Grangers, talking over their problems, had words today from the head of the state gov ernment and will get more to morrow from a candiate for that position. Last night they heard about one phase of national govern ment and how It affects them. Gov. Douglas McKay was to day's state-government speaker. Democratic gubernatorial nomi nee Austin Flegel will be to morrow's. Last night's speaker on gov ernment was Norman Stoll, gen eral counsel for the Bonneville power administration. Stoll told the annual Grange convention delegates that there would be a lot of northwest power development proposals In the next congress. Next year, he said, might be the year of major decisions. Grangers' attitude on power questions should be reached by a study of the merits: There is too much at stake in these water resource develop. ment questions to permit these matters to be settled in a battle of catch words, slogans and epi thets," he said. The Grange, he said, has help ed through its public power acti vities in promoting use of electri city and in keeping rates down. Homes and farms in the north west use two and a half times as much electricity as the na tional average, he said. In industry, the northwest be cause of its available cheap power, produces one-half the country's aluminum, Stoll said.

New System for Dealing With Sex Offenders Tried A new procedure for dealing Tuesday in district court under by Judge Joseph B. Felton A man who pleaded guilty a exposure was sentenced to pay was also given a six-month term- in the county jail, but the jail term was suspended by Judge Felton in favor of a probation which outlined seven conditions. Most important of the condi tions were those which ordered the 30-year-old veteran to un dergo pschiatric treatment. The judge said he expected regular reports from the physician and that the probationer was to re port to the court every 30 days. The terms of the probation enabled Judge Felton to press for rehabilitation of the man despite the fact that his court is unable to order a guilty per son to the state hospital for treatment. The conditions of the parole were suggested in part by three-page letter to the judge from a Salem psychiatrist who outlined the subject s history. By this procedure, never be fore followed in district court in Salem, the 10-year-old girl who was the subject of the cri mlnal case was spared an ap pearance against the man before the grand Jury and before cir cuit court. The aim of the court, accord ing to the terms of the proba tion, is to rehabilitate the man a first offender, in the hope that similar or even more seri ous sex offenses would not occur in the future.

He Oregon Peach Crop Failure Portland, June 13 W) Ore gon's peach crop will be no bet ter than a third of last year's and in many places will be just about a blank. The state's apricot crop will not be of commercial import ance; its Bartlett pear crop will be a third of last year's but only a little under average; the sweet cherry crop will be less than half of last year s and some 20 percent under average. These were the highlights of a June 1 condition report by Neils I. Neilsen, agricultural statistician for the department of agriculture here. The trouble came from the low winter temperatures which killed buds. His report, issued today, said that injury to sweet cherries in the Hood River and The Dalles districts was greater than at first thought likely and in the Mil- ton-Freewater area reduced the crop to non-significance. Aitnougn the Bartlett pear crop will be under average, fall and winter trees escaped severe damage. However, some harvest reduction is seen in the Hood Ri ver valley. Condition of eastern Oregon prunes was reported at 17 per cent of normal lowest on rec ord and of western Oregon at 27 percent, similar to the light The walnut and filbert picture was not too clear June 1, the re port said, but the outlook was for about a 50 percent crop. There was little damage to applies and close to an average crop is In prospect, the report said. Fndi Toflifbt! , "REFORMER AND TBI I .

Russian Tactics True to History Greater knowledge of Russian history would bring about less surprise on the part of leaders of the United States and other western countries when Russia makes a move that is contrary to public thinking, said Ray String ham during Tuesday's luncheon of the Salem Kiwanis club. Stringham, former New York attorney and now a member of the state code revision commis sion for Oregon, has made a hob by of Russian history. During his remarks he pointed out that a Russian treaty is considered little more than a breathing spell by Russian leaders 'before re suming aggressive tactics. He added the Russian cannot see the viewpoint of anybody but himself. Stringham mentioned the fact that during the Napoleonic wars, Russia changed sides five times, being twice with Napoleon and three times against him. Russia, he said, was quick to take advan tage of. the Boxer disorders in China in 1900 to seize Manchur ia and exterminate thousands of civilian Chinese. 15th, $50. J. M.
