Deelz Files Suit
In Milk Board
' Oregon City UP) A suit at
tacking the constitutionality
of Oregon's milk control law
was filed in circuit court here
Friday.
The challenge was made by
Elmer Deetz, the Canby dairy'
man who' sell milk directly
from the cow in gallon cans to
customers at hi farm.
He filed the action after the
State Board of Agriculture had
dropped a suit for an injunc
tion to (top him from making
such sales. The suit said these
violated milk control pricing
and licensing regulations.
Still pending against Deetz
is a State Department of Ag
riculture suit, charging fail
ure to have a fluid milk 11
cense, which governs sanitary
regulations.
In his suit Friday, Deetz
named as defendant State
Board of Agriculture members
and the milk marketing ad
ministrator. The suit contends
that the milk control law and
regulations do not apply to
his business.

Former State Official
Hylen Harrison Corey, who
is credited with originating
Oregon's first Blue Book in
1910 and who drafted the
state's first auto registration
and trademark registration
laws, died Friday at a local
hospital where he had been a
patient for 11 days.
Corey had a heart ailment
for about 14 years but had
been seriously ill only since
hospitalized. He was a late re

where he had made his home
for the past 38 years.

strengthening. He predicted
that congress will not inter
fere with state labor acts.
Social Security. Norblad
favors keeping a substantial
reserve and not relying on
"pay as you go," for there may
be a time when need will far
exceed current receipts.
Postal rates. An increase is
in order for some categories
not now paying their way. He
spoke with approval of econ
omies being made by the pres
ent postmaster general.
Government functions. There
is too much overlapping. The
states are paying dearly for
their "federal grants." sending
more money to Washington
than they get back.
Treaty law. Present treaty
setup is satisfactory, but some
thing should be done about
secret agreements whereby the
U. S. is bound without con
gressional approval. Such as
Yalta.
Foreign trade. There is a
middle ground between isola
tionist mile high tariff walls
and a free trade line, but it is
not always easy to determine
Just where it is.
Housing. Norblad takes a
"dim view" of some public
projects he has seen, prefers
encouragement of private en
terprise where the fsmily will
become the owner.
Highway, Basically a state
Job, needs some U. S. supervis
ion. Civil defense. Maybe it has
been overdone in some in
stances by officials overly
eager to justify their Jobs. He
said the U. S. has a good de
tection setup in the far north
details of which are an official
secret.
Norblad emphasized that he
carries an open mind which
he can change when the facts
warrant. He said he likes to
hear from his constituents, es
pecially on Issues pending in
congress. Charles A. Sprague
presided.

350 of the openings were in the

The fourth class post are tilled
by the department itself.
A backlog of appointment to
be made of first, second and
third class postmasterships has
been building up for almost a
year and a half. The Eisen
hower administration succeed
ed In getting only 75 nomina
tions to the Senate this year
before Congress quit Aug. 1.
This waa because the Repub
licans ordered new civil service
examination for all vacancie
after they took office last Jan
uary. They found all th civil

fore Jan. 20, 1953, were filled
with Democrat.

Some Republican sources on
Capitol HU1 aaid that the GOP
had been successful in recent
month In getting some Demo

through strict checkup of their
official conduct.
These source, who refused
us of their name, said some
postmaster had quit rather
than face official action seeking
their dismissal.
