Entered at tho Post Office at Athena, Oregon, as Second-Class Mail Matter , VOLUME 43 ATHENA, UMATILLA COUNTY, OREGON, APRIL 25, 1930 NUMBER 17 APOLOGIZES FOR ; WRITING LETTER State Commander of Ameri can Legion Expresses Re ? gret Over Action. . : Eugene. S. S. George, state com mander of the American Legion, de clared that a letter of apology al- ready was m the hands of Mrs. Ada V; Skiff, state president of the Amjai can War Mothers, when she'rvealed contents of a previous letter he had written her refusing to appoint some ' one in Eugene to direct the organiza tion of a chapter here, ,;" -' - George expressed regret that the first letter had slighted Mrs. Skiff, and said that his reply was in loyalty to the American Legion auxiliary. He regretted the wording of tho letter. His letter of apology follows: "I am prompted to express to yoa personally and t6 your . organization my most sincere apology. I cannot express to you how truly sorry I am to have been misunderstood, as you know I have always . expressed pub licly and otherwise, in the most force ful language I might command, our sincere appreciation and devotion to our womanhood ' for their unselfish highminded patriotic service. I am very sure that your organization ' typifies the highest ideals of service and devotion of America's , woman hood, but I did try to express to you our militant loyalty and devotion to out auxiliary. ( ;- "1 would appreciate the opportunity of calling on you in person that I might become more familiar with your organization, but will you please accept my apologies at this time and let me assure you that I meant no offense, and it was the farthest from ' my thoughts to embarrass your or ganization in the least I do ex ceedingly, regret to have caused ynu any displeasure and I can only wish for you personally and for your or ganization the , very best success. Humbly and respectfully yours, (Signed) "Sidney S. George, de partment commander, - American Le gion." The" letter referred to and for which Mr. George apologized, and which in no way connects the American - Le ! gioh as an organization, with the sentiment expressed by the state commander, was received by Mrs. Skiff in reply to one sent to George asking for the name of some Eugene woman who might be interested in organizing a chapter ; of American War Mothers in that city. , Mrs. Skiff branded George's , letter as insulting and an affront to the American War Mothers of Oregon. , . , "You might be able," read George's letter, "to appeal to sor.ie disgruntled self-seeking individual who would ap preciate the opportunity of champion ing your cause for the expressed pur pose of gratifying a personal and selfish desire, but it is my belief that it would not appeal to any of the leaders in our community." Another paragraph in tha letter to which the war mothers have taken exception reads: "It seems to me a sacrilege to wrap the American flag around America's motherhood and to flaunt it before the public in a sentimental, seliish or ganization in desecrating a most ta cred institution." ......... "As far as the American Legion is concerned," continued .George's let ter, "our auxiliary organization em bodies your limited objectives and much more. It seems to me your, or ganization could only hope to. inter rupt and dissipate the forces of our auxiliary as far as the situation in Eugene is concerned. ; Our auxiliary organization is very satisfactory. "I hesitated to answer your letter because your request disturbed me to no small degree. . We are intensely proud and loyal to our auxiliary, and we of the legion will not be concerned in any movement that might reduce its effectiveness. I trust you can appreciate . that this expression is prompted only for the best interest and welfare of the question as we see it.-. : - :-'..'

The part suited Helen and she made the most of it in such clever manner that she left the impression that she had al ways been "Irma Hastings," the best friend of Charlotte (Sugar) Bancroft, played by Thelma Shrimpf. - And Miss Shrimpf was grace ful and clever in her scheming to keep a line on her boy friend Cnarles Dudley, "Chickie," with Walter Huff man properly cast in the role. John Kirk as Edwin Rowley, was anything but a bashful beau, and in splendid voice he delivered his lines well. Ar-. leen Myrick played opposite him in a fine delineation of the role of Anita Thorndike, the real cause of his worry. Marjorie Montague had the least to say and was not long on the stage, but as Jane Oxford a highbrow, she was surely chilly enough. In 'order of their appearance Eldon Myrick as Jack Belmont, and Stafford Hansell as Ripley fit well in the comedy situa tions, while Rhoda Nelson as Billy Flood, covered a lot of territory in furnishing the audience with the key to the climax of the plot. "Salt water Taffy" was about the average school play, left as it were to stand on its own legs, for aside from an overture, there was no music; but the players made up for that by their work on the stage. It netted $95.00. ; :, ' ? - Prison Officials Given All Blame For Fire Deaths Columbus. Sensational charges that prison officials could have saved all of the 318 prisoners who died in the Ohio penitentiary fire Monday night and an admission from Warden Preston E. Thomas that no general fire precautions are taken at the in stitution were read into the record of the board of inquiry. Charges that prison officials were lax in their consideration of the value of human life were made by A. E. Nice. " The warden blamed the state for overcrowding the prison to almost twice its capacity. ... At the improvised morgue in the state fair grounds horticultural build ings, where long rows of caskets rested on wooden benches, relatives of the fire victims called to receive their bodies." Fifteen were released for burial, conveyed in army trucks to railorad stations or in hearses if the relatives were able to employ them. For the first time since the holocaust Warden Thomas ventured into the prison yard. He walked over to the deputies' office and then started across to the chapel, where hundreds of cell mates of the dead men were installed in temporary quarters. Jeers and cries of derison brought the warden's bowed head erect. Thomas watched the pisoners for a moment and With a word of encour agement from one the chaplians con tinued his walk . across the yard. Guards were' sent to quiet the jeer ing men but later in the day the mur- murings aginst him continued among the inmates. i ' , !' Junior-Senior Banquet The Athena high school junior- senior banquet was held at the Grand Hotel in Walla Walla Saturday eve ning.' The banquet table was pro fusely decorated with sweet peas and blue tapers. The senior class motto "No victory without labor" was ef fectively and strikingly emphasized by a boy with a rake and a hoe in his hand. Covers were laid for thirty, including members of the high school faculty as guests. Superintendent Coad was toastmaster for the occa sion. " . ... . Mae-Hi Student Winners Arthur. Shumway and Henriette Sanderson, Mac-Hi students, were winners in the Oregon competition of the American Chemical ' Society con test at Salem.

Ehrhardt, presi dent of the intermediate Credit Bank of Spokane says that members of tha North Pacific Grain Growers Inc., would be- permitted to borrow up to 75 per cent of the market value of their wheat. Formerly 70 per cent was the maximum, but Ehrhardt said recent declines in the market was responsi ble for the extended maximum. Other wise, he added, the policy of the bank with respect to loans is unchanged. "This increase," he said, "applies to wheat loans received from banks and discounting companies qualified to borrow from the Intermediate Credit banks. All loans are subject, of course, to conditions heretofore an nounced with respect to grades and warehouses. . "It is our understanding that the Farmers' National Grain corporation will continue to make supplemental loans on the old crop during the re mainder of the month on the basis heretofore announced, but after April 30 supplemental loans will be reduc ed to about two cents per bushel above loans made by the Intermediate Credit bank or commercial - banks, provided the basic loans do not ex ceed 75 per cent of the market value, and that loans will be subject to call any time before July 1. "It is not understood that this ap- pliest to the new crop on which loan values have not been announced yet by the grain corporation." Announcement comes from Chicago that the grain stabilization corpora tion consummated a deal for exchange of 6,000,000 bushels of May futures wheat for 6,000,000 bushels of choice .... i i wr rfili. 11. milling wneat in ivansas iuy, it was announced by George S. Mimor, president of the stabilization corpora tion. Milnor made the announcement in response to inquiries as to whether farm board agencies would "start buying wheat again since the drop in the market." He added: "There is a fairly good demand for wheat for export, indicating that the present market levels as reflected by seaboard prices are on a world basis," Easter Cantata "Life . Eternal" Splendidly Given One of the most impressive and pleasurable events commemorating Easter was the cantata "Life Eter nal" presented at the Christian church Sunday evening. A community chorus of twenty-four voices directed by Mrs. Ralph Mc Ewen, was heard to advantage in the song story of the Crucifixion, death and resurrection of ChriBt. The voices were well balanced and the ef fects alternated were tuneful and beautiful solos, duets, obligatos and other groupings assisted by tho chorus were much enjoyed and the entire presentation was one of beauty. The Church was beautifully decor ated with spring flowers with shades of lavendar and yellow predominat-, ine. The scripture and prayer pre ceding the cantata were given by Rev. Dow of the local Baptist church, Rev. Sias of the Christian church pronouncing the benediction. Bingham Road Improvement The road leading from Gibbon to Bingham Springs is being improved by grading.
