Ken drove over from Silver-, ton to take care of some business in courthouse Tuesday and found II closed except for the sheriff's office. Most of staff was home helping Honest Abe celebrate his birthday. Speaking of holidays and sher iff's office. Deputy Herman Doney gets a real workout on such days. Calls go direct to the sheriff's office where Herman mans the phone and radio. People forget the place is closed and call for clerk, as sessor, judge or janitor, or just to ask the time of day and Herman gets lob of answering phone. Sometimes he wishes he was an octopus when four phones start ringing at once about the same time that three or four cars around the county start radioing in with or for information. Some more on David Hardy. When 'the lecturer and nar rator of the movie, "Our Living Future," was here last week, he told how the movie and tour got started. He was hospitalized with a back Injury and was thinking of projects and subjects for future research and articles for Life magazine, of which he Is an as sistant editor (or some such title). In thinking over the problem of slums, crowded highways and other municipal problems, the idea of the movie came. After getting out of the hospital, he argued the publishers into the idea, even though they stood to gain little from it. A budget of $75,000 for production of the movie and the first year's showing was allowed. He grinned, "We spent more than $250,000 in making the movie alone before wo oven went on tour." , Salem was number 60-some-thing on the tour. At the moment, 104 cities are scheduled, he said. Hardy was happy with the turnout of civic lenders In Salem although the total crowd was only about 150 persons. He wasn't pleased about the poor turnout of state legislators, how ever. All were given tickets to the' show and lecture but only two or three showed up. He Is very sincere about the project. He wants community and governmental leaders to see the movie and understand the nroblems that face them. He wants to return here later this month for a special showing before a loint session of the legis- at ve houses but as of the moment the idea hasn't taken hold here. Oregon is one of the top ten states in the nation in expected population gain in the next few years and he thinks leaders should DreDare for it. "You can t keep tnem away, ne said, "But at least you can plan for them. A couple of times during Intro ductions, Hardy's name was mis takenly repeated as Harding. "That's all right," he said. "I got used to that when I was news analyst tor a radio network In Chicago. David Hardy With The News was followed Immedi ately by David Harding, Counter spy.

New Swimming Pool Approved By YW Board Plans to construct a swimming pool wing on the Salem YWCA building were approved by the di rectors of the organization and the Salem United Fund board Tues day. Mrs. William Crothers, general chairman of the swimming pool committee said plans are now be ing prepared for a preliminary drive for funds. Plans are to ac quire 40 per cent of the amount needed before beginning a general campaign. Estimated cost of the project which would include a 28 by 60 foot pool is between $100,000 and $125,000 she said. If the money for the pool is obtained by June this year construction should start sometime early next year, she ex plained. The new wing would face on Winter street and would occupy the site presently occupied by the YWCA Budget Shop. The building would be construc ted to utilize locker and shower space included in the present structure. Men's locker rooms and other areas would be included in the new building. Immediate plans of the YWCA board are to secure preliminary architectural plans. In approving the project mem bers of the United Fund board of directors agreed the YWCA should have a swimming pool to round out its program and to meet a growing community need. Death Claims H.

In Sslam ctll t , , i CMpirt 2-7441 or an I P , 1 St t 1 A Cornelius Bateson, Salem, presi dent,, said the possibility of form ing a broiler commission is t h e principal purpose of the meeting. Ho pointed out that in Oregon the industry hnd been developed from annual' gross income of $172,000 in 1940 to $5,000,000 in 1955. Persons Involved ' Bateson mentioned that these people include hatcheries gearing their operations to hatching meat type chickens; feed men, who find a substantial volume of their feed no longer going into this outlet, the processor with a substantial part of his business limited to cut ting up whole evicerated birds and the grower, who may have to abandon his present investment in I the industry or bo content with marginal returns for his labor. In 19d6 the broiler growers of Oregon found that prices to pro ducers were no longer set on a local . or regional basis, Bateson pointed out. Rather, the prices were set by increased production of the southern states. Assessment Would Finance Under a commission such as the industry hopes to form, and as has been formed by other Oregon com modity groups, there would be an assessment up to 1 per cent of the price received by the grower. This will go for the promotion of the product, commission mem bers,- who are recommended by the industry are appointed by the governor. With the exception of one dealer all commission members must be broiler producers. Twenty-five or more growers are required to pe tition for a commission. Hearings are then held and the need for the commission is determined by the director of agriculture for the state. County Opens Further Roads To Heavy Haul County roads are gradually being reopened to heavy hauling following their closure to anything over 10,000 pounds. Assistant En gineer Ted Kuenzi reported Wednesday. Closure was ordered to minimize damage to road sur face during the thawing process alter the recent freeze. However, there are more than 25 roads that are under control. Recent openings include the road up the Little North Fork to Lom- kers bridge; No. 84 above Mc hama; No. 32. Staylon to West Stayton and No. 843, Turner to Battle Creek.
