Seek Road Improvement A
delegation of property owners ap
proached the county court Thurs
day concerning the possibility of
oiling county road 567 from the
Dunigan bridge to the highway.
The court agreed to place a traf
fic counter on the road, but said
it was not possible to place the
road on the oiling program this
year. The matter of clearing out
a drain that emerges from a
swale will be taken up immedi
ately. Rids Awarded The county
court Thursday awarded Rich
field Oil corporation the con
tract for supplying the county
with its gasoline requirements
for the next fiscal year. The suc
cessful bid ranged from 19.8 to
20.38 cents per gallon depending
upon delivery point. General
Petroleum got the diesel contract
on a bid of 12.14 cents and Tide
water Associated was awarded the
lubricating oil contract at 61
cents. The gear grease contract
went to Union Oil with a bid of
17.55 cents per pound. The kero
sene contract was not awarded.
Two concerns presented identical
figures.

On hand, too, was one of the Ei
senhowers' hosts, old friend Paul
G. Hoffman, board chairman of
the Studcbakcr Corp., and former
chief of the government's foreign
aid program.
Hoffman invited Eisenhower to
Palm Springs four years ago, hut
the Eisenhowers actually are stay
ing here at the Smoke Tree Ranch
home of Paul H. Helms, a bakery
executive.
The ranch, close hy snow-
thatched. lO.ftoo-foot Mt. San Jacin
to, is a development made up of
si nrivalelv owned homes. Hoff
man's place is located about a
block from Helms' home.
Hoffman told newsmen Secret
Service agents picked the Helms
resident over his for the President
because of security-advantages.
"It has a closed patio, for ex
ample," Hoffman said, "and it has
complete privacy."
He described it as a "very sim
ple place" with four bedrooms. The
Helms family is providing a cook
and a butler for the Eisenhowers.
The President was accompanied
from Washington by a small White
House staff and he intends to mix
some business with relaxation.

soldiers about seeing Amelia Ear
hart. But they said: 'Boy, hasn't
the heat really got him?' and
would not believe me.
"Toward evening, while I was
walking down the steps into the
lower deck where the bunk beds
are, I slipped from the top step
and slid all the way down to the
bottom of the stairway on my
neck. I have since been in about
three hospitals. I would always
mention to nurses and doctors
that I saw Amelia Earhart, but
they all doubted me.
"I have seen pictures of Amelia
Earhart and I am sure it was her.
I wish I here was some way I could
go back there and prove that I
saw her. She may still be living
there.
. "What prompted me to write
this letter was the fact that last
week I had a dream that I was
talking to her in the same loca
tion. "Wishing you all the health and
happiness in the world, and God's
blessings."

THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, Salem, Oregon
BANK BUYS THIS PROPERTY
if
.. . Trir-Ti-" 1 l' Vi 'r "I-
The United States National Bank of Portland announced
Thursday the purchase of this frontage on South Commercial
Street, adjoinir.g the present quarters, for expansion and drive
in facilities. The bank now owns a little over a quarter of the
block. i
Bank Expands
(Continued from Page 1)
in conjunction with the new build
ing planned by the C. L. Corpor
ation. '
An entrance Into the bank is
also to provided off street on
the south side of the present quar
ters so persons using the parking
facilities will have an undercov
er entrance into the bank from
the south side.
E. C. Sammons of Portland,
president of the United States Na
tional Bank, said the hank was
fortunate to acquire the additional
space because it is needed by the
bank in the fast-growing commun
ity. Now quartered in the two-story
property covered by the deal is the.
General Finance Corporation and
the Crown Drug Store. Formerly
the International Business Ma
chines had quarters in the prop
erty, but this space is now vacant.
Upstairs space has at times been
used for offices or apartments.
The Capital Journal was located
in the building before it moved to
Chemeketa street.
The 61-year-old brick front, a
well-preserved structure, is believ-1
ed to have been built by Thomas
Burrows, an Englishman, who
came to Salem in 1864. Partially,'
at least, the building was occu-1
pied by his grocery, which he sold
in 1902, according to records. !
An interesting aspect of this
construction in 1893 is, however, !
only to be discovered in the rec-:
ords of Union Title Insurance com
pany. Years after the building was
erected Paul Oberhein, owner of
property to the southward and
Thomas Burrows discovered that
the south brick wall of the Burrows
building was not on the property
line and in 1903 agreed tn avoid :
litigation and leave the wall where
it then stood without recourse to
law.
Other F.arly History
Other records available in rela
tion to title insurance show that
Chloe A. Willson, widow of W. H.
Willson, popularly regarded as
the founder of Salem, deeded the
whole of Lot 7 in block 34 to
Turner Crump in the middle
18"0S.
Shortly thereafter Crump deeded
a fraction of lot 7 to John Byrne,
the celebrated "Patcheye" Byrne
who ran the Crystal saloon there
in the 1860s. It will be recalled
that Patcheye and Plamondon who
kept the more urbane "Belvedere"
across the street, were mortal
enemies. And, as the oft-repeated
story has it, when "Plums" Bel
vedere went up in smoke in the
early 1860s Plum was heard to
say that if he could catch Ihe j
so-and-so who burned his Belve
dere he would put a patch on his
other eve. .
4 More Errors

fill the vacancy although there is
no mention of his name in the
book.
In Ihe abstract nf votes in the
general eleelion held on November
4. Ifl.i.3. Rep. Harris Kllswnrth is
listed as a democrat, allhoiigh in
other use of the congressman's
name he is shown ns a republican,
which of course he has been dur
ing his entire voting life.
One state agency is omitted en
tirely in the new booklet which
' incidentally is the finest, best
looking blue book thai has been
issued at any time in the past.
This agency is the State Labor
Examiner created by the 1953
legislature through passage of
the so-called anti pickeling law.
The Kev. F. fi, Scherer, who was
appointed by (iovernor Putter
son as State Labor Examiner on
July 16, 1953, is listed in the
Blue Bonk as chairman of the
Slate Board of Conciliation, a
position he resigned prior to as
suming the examiner s post.
The fourth new error lists Lau
rence T. O'Brien as Deputy War
den of Ihe State Penitentiary.
O'Brien has not been connected
I with the prison since last April,

when Warden Clarence T. Glad

Inasmuch as the death of the
late State Senator Dean Walker
December 24, 1953 is noted in
the new book, there was ample
time in which to replace the late
Judge Combs picture with that
of his successor, Judge Foster.
Charles L. Politz, of Portland,
was engaged to work out the
format of the new booklet, while
attaches of the secretary's office
here in Salem, worked on copy.
Perhaps there were too many
cooks stirring the broth, but at
any event the serious errors are I
in the book which, now is being I
bound and wilt be ready for gen
eral distribution in a few days.
That is unless Secretary of State
Newbry decides to correct the
mistakes, a move that would cost
a whale of a lot of money.
