TI1B fl A ZETTE-TI M ES, IJEITXEK, OREGON, THURSDAY MAY 1 1022. r.u;r: five Joe Devine was up from his farm in the Lexington section on Friday, and as usual is optimistic over the crop outlook for his part of the coun ty. Lexington perhaps handles the largest proportion of grain to the size of the territory of any section on the branch, and Mr. Devine expects to see lots of the cereal rolling into the warehouses there this fall. Warm weather is what the growing grain needs now, and it seems to have ar rived. Mr. Devine thinks the crop of the county will be about three-fourths of what it was last year, and as last season was exceptionally good, this rate will not be so bad. Then, too, the prospects for better prices this season than last will largely make up for the shortage.

John McFerrin was in town on Fri day getting ready to begin work with the shearing crew at the plant of Guy Boyer and L. V. Gentry. This plant is now in full operation and will handle a large number of sheep. Mr. McFerrin has been working with the shearing crews down the line and up to the present time has found the game rather slow, owing to the cold and backward season. A. H. Switzer, an attorney from Corvallis, arrived at Heppner this week and has taken a place in the ollice of F. A. McMenamin. Mr. Switzer comes to Heppner well re commended as an attorney, and he will find a good opening with Mr. McMenamin who has built up a clientele here that has reached such proportions as to be beyond the abil ity of one man to handle. George N. Peck thinks that the wheat in his part of the county will come along all right; warmer weather being the most needful thing just now. There is a good stand and the grain looks well, though the growth has been slow so far. Mr. Peck was in Heppner on Friday for the first time in a good many weeks, his spring work on the farm keeping him very busy. John H. Hayes is up from Port land looking after business interests here He is connected with the firm of J. H. Hayes & Son. Mr. Hayes is well pleased over the good prices received for wool and thinks the gen eral outlook for the sheepman is bright, regardless of the bad season . for lambing experienced. He is also glad that warm weather has at last arrived. Sam Van Vactor, well known Hep pner lawyer, has associated himself with R. R. Butler, and will in future make his home in this city. Mr. Van Vactor is well known all over Eastern Oregon as an exceedingly able attor ney. The present offices of Judge Butler have been rearranged and will be shared by Butler and Van Vactor. The Dalles Optimist. Rev. E. L. Moore and family mo tored to lone on Sunday afternoon and in the evening he preached for the people of the Congregational church at that place. Mr. Moore re cently visited Boardman, where he preached in the church there as a candidate for the pastorate which will include Umatilla and Boardman and likely Irrigon. Fred Elder and family are visiting with their relatives in Heppner this week, coming down from F.mmett, Idaho, where they have been living for the past couple of years and where Mr. Elder was engaged in running a barber shop. After a short stay here they will go on south, Mr. Elder looking for a new location near the coast. Al Henriksen, Cecil alfalfa raiser and stockman, was in Heppner for a couple of days the first of the week. The turning fo warmer weather con ditions is doing wonders for the alfal fa just at present and Mr. Henriksen looks forward to cutting a heavy crop and there will be an abundance of hay produced in the Cecil section. Chas. Devin, farmer of lone, was in the city on Tuesday. Mr. Devin has in something over 500 acres of ?rain that is now coming along very fine and he expects it to make a good yield. The warmer weather has worked like magic in that part of the county and grain is now making a splendid growth. Wm. Huebner thinks he will have fully as good a crop of wheat as last season. His place is located in the north Sand Hollow section and the weather conditions have been a little better there than in other portions of the county, and grain has been grow ing pretty well. He was in Heppner on Friday. COMING TO The Dalles and Pendleton Dr.Mellenthin SPECIALIST fa Internal Medicine for the pant eleven yearn.

Williams Hires Orientals While Hundreds of Ex-Service Men Need Work President of Disabled Veterans' Auxiliary Scores Williams Mis. George L. Williams, president of the Disabled Vetetrans Auxiliary, addresser a letter to Kalph E. Williams, Republican National Committeeman, last Thursday, demanding; an explanation aa to why he employs Oriental labor In hla hop yards at a time when many ex-service men are Jobless. Williams Is one of the largest hop dealers In Oregon. Mrs. Williams' letter follows: DISABLED VETERANS' AUXILIARY Portland, Ore., May 11, 1922. Mr. ltalph E. Williams, 617 Hoard of Trust Building, Portland, Oregon. Dear Sir: Positive evidence having come to my knowledge that you employ Oriental labor in your hop yards, while hundreds of unemployed war veterans and other Amerlcnn cit liens are vainly seeking work, I have folt It my duty as president of the Disabled Veterans' Auxiliary to Inquire your reasons for this attitude. Controlling, as you do, the stock In several banks and ranking as one of Portland's wealthy men, there would appear to be no financial reason why you should not employ at a reasonable wage your fellow American citizens who need work to support themselves and dependents, and exclude all Oriental labor. One feature thnt has Impressed Itself forcibly upon my attention Is the fact that the example set by you is one that may Influence other employers. You are not merely a private citlien. You are the Republican Na tional Committeeman and, aa such, the head of tho party organisation in this atate and you therefore owe It to the Republicans of Oregon to furnish by your own conduct a correct example for other employers to follow. I have no racial prejudice against Orientals. I simply feel that the unemployment problem since the armistice has become so acute that our own Amerlcnn folk should be taken care of to the entire exclusion of Oriental labor. You are a wealthy man and can easily afford to employ American help at proper wages. Yours very truly MRS. GEO. L. WILLIAMS, President, Disabled Veterans' Auxiliary.
