Lawrence T. Harris, Eugene
attorney, and former member
of the Supreme Court, was un
able to attend the ceremonies
but sent a message to Miss
Dorothy L. Cornelius, deputy
clerk, which was read to Ben
aon by Chief Justice Earl C. La
tourette. The message read:
"I think we can better ap
preciate the significance of the
continued service rendered by
Arthur Benson if we remind
ourselves of the history of Ore

Judge Harris continued, "Ar
thur served 82 years, more
than half of Oregon's state
hood. He became deputy clerk
March 10, 1002, clerk on Feb
ruray 2, 1918. If he had served
four more years he would have
served more than halt of the
110 years of Oregon's govern'
ment, including provincial gov.
ernraent.
I do not know of any per
son who has served as long as
an official of the state as has
Arthur Benson. The very fact
that he has served approxi-
mately 52 years in and of itself
necessarily implies highly ef
ficient service on his part."
Miss Cornelius was in
charge of all arrangements
and was given efficient assis
tance before and during the re
ception by members of the Su
preme Court staff.
Eight secretaries of the Jus
tices served at the coffee ta
bles or assited in the impro
vised kitchen aet up back of the
clerk's office.
They were Mrs. Mary L. Goe-
bel, Mrs. Pearl M. Benkart,
Mrs. Elsie Williamson, Miss
Deborah Buffington, Miss Bar
bara' Haradon, Mrs. Gladys
Laidlaw, Miss Jane Cheney and
Mrs. Elsie Holman.
Harry Shafer, bailiff, Jonel
C. Hill, administrative assist
ance to the chief justice, Ray
mondStrlngham, aupreme
court librarian, Charles A.
Jens, court reporter, served
as assistants doing countless
tasks necessary to keep a re
ception of this kind running
smoothly and valuable aid was
given by the following law
clerks, Leroy Ehlers, Leon
Cabinet, Robert Ely and Ed
ward Fitzglbbon.
For two hours there was a
constant line, first to greet the
Benson, then to tarry for a cup
of coffee and some dainty
cakes. It was an unsual occa
sion, honoring a conscientious
public servant, who for 82
years has given quiet, emcient
service to the bar of Oregon,
and aid to countless young at
toraeva just beginning the
practice of law.

Tells Eugene to
Annex Area
Albany, Ore. (UJ9 A. W.
Trimble, president of the
Mountain States Power com
pany, issued the following
statement today in connection
with a condemnation suit filed
against the firm by the Eugene
Water and Electric Board to
acquire the company's trans
mission facilities and other
properties in the Willakenzle
and Glenwood areas near Eu
gene.
We have always felt that
since we went into those area
when they were sparsely set
tled and were therefore not re
garded by the Water Board as
desirable we should not be
compelled to give up the terri
tory now that it can be served
profitably.
It was for that reason we
refused to sell when approach
ed last summer. But we did
offer to sell if and when either
of the areas should become
incorporated within the Eu
gene city limits."
