Governor Patterson

Ivan E. Oakes, secretary for
Hie Willamette River Basin Com
mission since 1945 until his re
tirement last month, was praised
by Governor Patterson and the
Natural Resources Committee
Wednesday for outstanding ser
,ivice to the state of Oregon.
ii Oakes. who once served as a
tsbtate legislator from Malheur
5 Jcounty in 1925, was born in Sheri
tcian, Oregon, in 1883. He has been
lipctive in conservation and recla

Frank. He -added that more than
700 persons had made application
for positions in the store a circum
stance that had been greatly ap
preciated by the organization.
The first floor space, double that
of the parent store in Portland,
will contain a "youth center"
among its various departments,
where Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts and
similar organizations will be made
welcome.
Speaking- of the parking situa
tion, Frank said that space for
1000 automobiles, under cover
would be made available through
the construction of a "butterfly
facility", something new in park
ing. This is more space than is
provided by any store in the state.
Frank asserted that the Meier
and Frank organization isn't com
ing to Salem to disturb anything,
but plans to be a "good neighbor"
to all. He predicted that the en
trance of the firm into the valley
would draw business from consid
erable distance, and that all enter
prises would benefit.
, Frank repeated the statement
that the firm knows of no large
industry that contemplates settling
in Salem. They decided to enter
the capital, he added, because it
was felt that Salem would continue
to expand.
The speaker briefly outlined the
history of the Meier and Frank
organization, since it first opened
its doors in Portland almost a hun
dred years ago. It has become the
largest private business in the
state, locally owned, he, declared.
The speaker was introduced by
Coburn Grabenhorst, Salem real
tor, and then presented a few of
the department heads who will be
affiliated with the Salem store,
including Ritchey Turner, assist
ant manager.
Barbara Smith, South Salem high
school student, provided two piano

Urges Burial
For Old Oregon
WASHINGTON I UP) Rep.
Walter Norblad (R-Ore.) today
urged that the battleship Oregon,
veteran of the Spanish-American
war, be given a proper military
burial "with all possible honors."
The ship, stripped of all fittings;
was used as a breakwater at
Guam during the war and is still
at the Pacific island. Norblad said
the cost of towing the hull to Port
land had been explored and found
prohibitive, and its value for
scrap was "questionable."
The Oregon Republican, in i
letter to Rear Admiral W. D. Leg
gett, Chief of the Navy's Bureau
of ships ir. Washington, urged that
the Admiral take appropriate ac
tion and arrange for the fprcgon'f
burial, "with appropriate patriotic-ceremonies."
