C of C Sponsors
Decorations
The Chamber of Commerce
Monday night asked the city
council for permission to put
up street banners and decora
tions for the Stale Fair and the
request was referred to City
Manager J, L. . Franzen. with
power to act..
The chamber has been asked
to sponsor the street decora
tions for the 1953 fair, which
is to carry out the Hawaiian
theme.
A contract to decorate the
streets has been let to the
Charles L. Wakefield firm of
Portland.
The announcement said the
commission will open negotia
tions "to eliminate all differ
ences as regards finance, fron
tier and other problems.
It follows closely the special
mention of Iran as one of Rus
sia's neighbors in a speech
Saturday by Soviet Premier
Georgi M. Malenkov. Malen
kov s indicated Russia was
especially interested in main
taining good relations with
Iran.
The announcement is un
precedented because it speaks
of the appointment of a Soviet
commission on Iranian soil in
Tehran.
Observers here took the an-1
nouncement to mean the ap-1
pointment of the special soviet
commission will be made with ,
the agreement of the Iranian
government; in fact, that the
agreement has' already been
given.
If so, it means full scale
economic and financial nego-!
tiations are about to begin be
tween the two countries. Mos-1

risk of announcing the ap-1

Dirty . . . dusty . . . back-breaking-Yes,
the Guatemalan homemaker finds house
cleaning a tremendous task. With only a ,
hand-fashioned brcom with which to clean the
dirt or stone floors, the job seems endless.
And wandering chickens and livestock don't add
to the ease of doing the job either.
Picture it and compare it with the magic of
cleaning house electrically here at home
The modern PGE homemaker has an electric vacuum
cleaner to help her clean the floors and rugs in a matter
of minutes. Handy attachments aid in cleaning the draperta,
w indow blinds and furniture. Waxing the floors
is another task which the modern electric
vacuum cleaner accomplishes with ease.
Hot water too, plays an important part
in good housekeeping. PGE homes have an
abundance of piping hot water at the turn
of the tap thanks to an automatic electric
water heater. It makes house cleaning easier
and faster saves precious time and energy.
Yes, those silent invisible little kilowatts of
tlectricity perform sheer magic around the house
