Official Paper for Morrow County.
SHUTDOWN COSTLY TO MO
ROW COUNTY.
TO CARE for much of the emer
gency work during the winter
months, there was put into the
contract allotted to Mr. Nyberg for
completing the mountain gap on
Heppner-Spray road, provisions re
quiring that certain portions of the
labor be given to Morrow and
Wheeer county men; those who
had registered with the relief com
mittees as available for such labor
to be given preference. However,
there was delay by the contractor
in getting his setup going, and the
December cold spell put a quietus
on the work and it was tied up. Up
to that time there had been very
few emergency men on the job,
and it was apparent to those most
interested that few were to get
work, though plans had been made
to use dump wagons and teams in
stead of trucks in spreading the
surfacing, and there was to be a lot
of hand labor, also. All of this was
contemplated in the contract, and
the bids were raised to figures high
enough to care for the additional
costs of this class of labor, and let
with that understanding between
the contractor and the Bureau of
Public Roads. Then came the shut
down of the work, and there is ap
parently no prospect that a wheel
will be turned before the middle of
March or the first of April, if we
have been given the low-down on
the situation.
A protest from Wheeler and Mor
row county courts and emergency
relief committees to Senator Stei
wer brought quick action on his
part with the head officials of the
bureau at Washington, resulting in
their taking up the matter with the
Portland office and getting their re
port, which supports the action tak
en in shutting down the work and
the reasons therefor, and the head
office is inclined to stand pat and
not override the local officials.
We understand that the Wheeler
county people are not inclined to
lay down, and they are contemplat-
ing further protests and presenta
tion of facts that they hope will
change the attitude of the officials
of the Bureau. However, time is
slipping by, and we doubt not that
many who might have been aided
by the emergency work on this
road will be otherwise engaged, and
the contractor will then proceed
with his own crew and machinery.
Just how many might have been
put to work on this road had the
contractor remained on the job to
take advantage of the good open
weather of the past three weeks,
and what promises to be good
weather from now on, is a prob
lem. The closing down of the camps
has forced our county court to pro
vide other work for the unemployed
and put the court up against an
outlay of some $2500 that would In
all probability have been unneces
sary. Emergency work is now
proceeding on a number of market
roads for which appropriations
were made at the recent term of
court.
Fuller canyon road received $1000
and this is providing work for the
unemployed in the Heppner area;
$500 goes to Blackhorse, this to be
divided on work east of Lexington
and on the road leading to Rhea
creek west of Social Ridge, and
will be cared for by labor from
these two sections; the money is
being spent on the basis of $500 for
Blackhorse and $250 for the grade
leading to Rhea creek. Labor is
provided in the lone area by an ap
propriation of $500 on Jordan east
road and a like sum on the McMur
ray canyon road, should that sum
be required to finish the necessary
work. Heppner-Hardman market
road is to receive some attention,
but no money has been set aside
for the purpose yet.
The expenditure of the most of
this money would have been avoid
ed, no doubt, by pushing the work
on Heppner-Spray road and giving
the unemployed of the county an
opportunity to earn even the small
portion they could under the con
ditions of the contract

A NEW DEAL.
CARING for the indigent of Mor
row county when in need of med
ical and hospitalization services,
has heretofore been the source of
a lot of worry to the county court,
and in spite of their efforts to keep
the costs of such services within
reasonable bounds, they were not
able to do so. Patients of this na
ture were taken to first one hos
pital and doctor, jthen to another,
many were cared for in outside in
stitutions and by physicians who
have at times been just little short
of exhorbitant in their charges, and
it took the time and labor of inves
tigation of the members of the
court to get these charges adjusted
and brought down to a reasonable
basis. The court was always facing
an outlay of many hundreds of dol
lars a jfear because of the lack of
a proper system of handling these
cases.
At the November term of the
county court, following the meeting
of the county budget committee,
and the presentation to that body
of a new proposition of handling
such cases, a contract was entered
into with Heppner hospital of this
city, ths institution agreeing to give
hospitalization servces for care of
county poor at $50.00 per month.
The requirements hereafter will be
that all patients of this nature will
be brought to this hospital, and the
court will not authorize the taking
of any to other points, or allow any
claims for such services rendered
elsewhere. Under this arrange
ment a large item of expense here
tofore borne by the county i3 ex
pected to be eliminated.

YOU JUST CAN'T WHIP THIS
KIND.
Oregon Farmer.
NE of our readers, in a recent
Jesus Forgiving Sin
Lesson for January 22. Mark 2;
1-12.
Golden Te:;t: Mark 2:10.
Jesus is in Capernaum, His head
quarters during His ministry in
Galilee. Such a crowd comes to hear
Him that the door of His abode Is
completely blocked. Now there is
something fundamental in this
magnificent response to a living
Message proceeding from the heart
of a great soul.
Some there are who disparage
what is spoken. "Deeds not words"
is their motto. But they forgat
that words ARE deeds. "By words
alone," said the Greeks, "are lives
of mortals swayed." And it was
Jesus who declared that each of us
is justified or condemned by his
words.
In the case of Jesus their influ
ence was wholly good. His sen
tences were laden with pure and
quickening impulses. "The words
I have spoken to you," he once
said, "are spirit and are Life." We
detect the eager glow in the faces
of that Capernaum throng as they
listen.
But our attention is diverted by
a paralyzed man carried by friends.
Unable to push him through the
mob, they break open the roof, low
ering him before Jestis, who does
not, at first, attend to his physical
disabilities. He sees a deeper need.
"iS!y son," re quietly announces,
"your sins are pardoned." The suf
ferer's real trouble is inner, not out
er. It Is his soul, more than his
body, that needs first aid treatment
Look now" at the stern faces of
the Scribes. Jesus' declaration puz
zles them. In their eyes sin can
only be forgiven by the offering of
a sacrifice of the formal statement
of a priest. In answer to their hos
tility, the Master at once restores
the invalid to sound health. Ey
this physical test Jesus silences
criticism. The astonished Scribes
cannot Ignore this proof of divinity.
As the restored paralytic walks out,
ail, with hearts thankful to God,
cry, "We never saw anything like
this."
What an appealing picture! Our
Master can heal the body. Better
still, He brings comfort and peace.
letter, hit the nail right on the
head when she said she and her
family were solving the depression
problem by taking the "de" and the
"i" out of the word.
This reader is no quitter. The
more difficult the problem the hard
er she tries to solve it, judging from
her letter.
The farmers of this country are
not quitters. If they were this old
land of ours would have slipped In
to oblivion long ago.
The American people cities and
towns and rural communities are
not quitters. Though they may not
know that they have taken the su
perfluous letters out of "depression"
that is exactly what they have done.
Depression! Without those three
letters what have we? Just a
mighty sentence of determination,
Press on!'
Whipped? Say, people with that
point of view can't be whipped!
A TEST OF GENIUS
The shortest verse in the New
Testament is "Jesus wept" That
tragic note in his story the Gospel
record has carefully preserved.
How we wish it might also have
told us what occurred on the night
after the chronic old grumbler was
healed at the river. Did Jesus stop
suddenly in the middle of the sup
per, and set down his cup, while a
broad smile spread across his won
derful face? If he did the disciples
were probably puzzled they were
so often puzzled but surely we
have the reverent right to guess
what was in his mind, as he pic
tured the home-coming of that
cured old man. On that evening
surely Jesus must have laughed
Some one has said that genius is
the ability to become a boy again
at will. Lincoln had that type of
genius. Around his table in Wash
ington sat the members of his Cab
inet silenced by their overwhelming
sense of responsibility. It was one
of the most momentous meetings
in our history. To their amaze
ment instead of addressing himself
directly to the business in hand,
Lincoln picked up a volume and be
gan to read aloud a delightful chap
ter of nonsense from Artemus
Ward.
Frequent chuckles interrupted
the reading, but they came only
from the President. The Secretar
ies were too shocked for expression.
Humor at such an hour it was
well nigh sacrilegious! Heedless of
their protesting looks, Lincoln fin
ished the chapter, closed the book
and scanned their gloomy faces
with a sigh.
Gentlemen, why don t you
laugh?" he exclaimed. "With the
fearful strain that is upon me day
and night, if I did not laugh
should die; and you need this medi
cine as much as I."
With that remark he turned to
his tall hat which was on the table
and drew forth what Secretary
Stanton described as a "little white
paper."
The "little white paper" was the
Emancipation Proclamation.
Stanton could hardly restrain his
impulse to walk out of the room.
No one of his Cabinet really un
derstood Lincoln. He was constant
ly scandalizing them by his calm
disregard of convention, and his
seemingly prodigal waste of time,
The friends and advisers of Jesus
were similarly shocked. How could
any one with such important busi
ness allow himself to be so casually
interrupted to heal a self-pitying
old man at the river! One of the
surest marks of greatness, of
course, is accessibility and the ap
pearance of having an unstinted al
lowance of time.
"Extreme busyness is a sympton
of deficient vitality," says Steven
son. The disciples were extreme
ly busy, Judas most of all. He was
the treasurer of the group, har
assed because expenses ran high
and there was no certainty of to
morrow's income. Jesus brushed
away such petty worries with
smile.
"Consider the lilies of the field,
he exclaimed, "they toil not neither
do they spin, yet Solomon In all his
glory was not arrayed like one of
these."
out for the big mirror and the brass
rail wherever the state laws do not
forbid.
Dr. Irving Fisher, noted econo
mist of Yale university, says: "The
idea that the liquor b.i eie
ates something economically is on
par with the idea of the under
taker who complained that the pure
milk committee in his town had
ruined his trade In babies' funer
als." Alcohol is a habit forming
drug, and the alcohol in beer will
establish the habit It will tend
to destroy efficiency in work, which
means economic loss. After visit
ing this country after the war,
Lloyd George said that England
with its drinking workmen could
not compete with America with its
workmen sober.

AS GOVERNORS EAT
The election year, 1332, brought
me some interesting news items.
Our state changed governors this
year, as did many others. But it is
not the political, but the dietary
habits that attracted my attention
picked up by the "nosey" report
er for the daily Press.
Both incoming and outgoing gov
ernors are lawyers; the outgoer is
a large-city resident the incomer
is from a small county-seat town
a life resident The city man has
city habits the small-town man
has habits peculiar to the country.
Both men are said to be very
healthy. The country jurist is
strikingly robust; he rises at day
break "goes to bed with the chick
ens." We know the city man does
just the opposite of that. The re
porter gives us a glimpse at the
breakfasts of the two men in
striking contrast:
The present chief executive
takes a breakfast which consists
only of orange juice and black cof
fee."
'The newly-elected executive ac
tually wants fried chicken for
breakfast according to his wife,
who does his meals; if he cannot
have the fried chicken, he wants a
breakfast steak, or country ham, or
sausage."
Readers of my letters will recall
my insistence on good breakfasts
for the hard workers. No man is
fit for a heavy day's work, on a
breakfast of orange juice and cof
fee. Chances are this type of man
will consume the big steak, ham or
sausage for SUPPER, the hour
when the body, brain, nerves and
stomach are tired out.
The country jurist our next gov
ernor is right; he builds a good
fire under the boiler in the morn
ing. He is fortified for the days'
struggle. He will be less tired at
closing-time. Ifc will eat a light
meal to sleep on." His arteries
will last He will outlive the city
jurist.

W. C. T. U. NOTES
MARY A. NOTSON. Reporter.
Senator Bingham of Connecticut
says that 3.2 per cent beer has
kick ; that seems that it has alcohol
in it sufficient to produce drunk
enness. The House enacted the
beer bill on the theory that no mat
ter what the alcoholic content, if
congress calls it "non-intoxicating'
it Is legally a soft drink and does
not violate the 18th amendment
This program of the wet bloc is the
most foolish and illogical program
ever undertaken by a majority of
the House. If this sort of thing
can be done, then no provision of
the constitution will stand against
the act of a majority of congress.
It is a dangerous precedent. It is
a matter of some note, however,
that under the tax provisions of
the bill the Iniquitous "one half of
one per cent" Is still retained. The
booze crowd first put the "one half
of one per cent" provision into ef
fect, but they have recently roared
about it and attributed it to the
long haired fanatics who stood for
prohibition.
What has become of the loudly
proclaimed slogan, "The old saloon
must not come back," which was
so much in evidence two or three
years ago? Every time someone
tries to get an amendment to the
beer bill added so as to outlaw the
saloon, it is voted down with a
shout. Speaker Garner threatens
to prevent the senate amendment,
modifying the 18th amendment,
from being presented to the House,
if it contains the provisions for the
protection of the dry states and the
authority for congress to shut out
the saloon by law. This shows that
the brewers and the old saloon gang
are working hand In hand.
For the sake of the record, keep
in mind what the wets promised in
the late campaign: That, If beer
should be legalized, there will be
no more drunkenness, no more
gangs, no more crime, and partic
ularly no more drinking among
young people. Of course, not all
of the wets proclaimed such an out
come, and not all claimed just
exactly those things in those words,
but their indictment of the 18th
amendment and the Volstead act
Indicated that these results would
follow the repeal of the amendment
and the Volstead act So, be pre
pared for the alibi in case no such
results are obtained. Also, look

Surpluses . . . Now Actual
I think most of our present trou
bles can be traced to the fact that
the rest of the world is unable or
unwilling to buy the urplus prod
ucts of our farms. I do not be
lieve this export market for our
wheat, cotton, tobacco, live stock
and other farm products is ever
going to come back. I have myself
seen how Italy is making itself in
dependent of our tobacco, cotton
and wheat and the other nations
are doing the same thing.
There has been no Increase In the
average yield of wheat per acre; it
still stands for the whole nation at
14.4 bushels. But in the five years
from 1925 to 1930 the acreage sown
to wheat in America increased by
21,000,000 acres.
It is very clear to me that the
only solution of the farm problem
lies in reducing the quantity and
improving the quality of farm pro
duction.
Murphy . . Farmer-Editor
My friend, Frederick E. Murphy,
publisher of the Minneapolis Trib
une, is a real farmer as well as a
real newspaper man. He has done
more than any other man to bring
the state of Minnesota up to the
front rank in agricultural prosper
ity. Mr. Murphy has put forth a
tangible, workable plan of farm
relief.
First, he would have the govern
ment induce the farmer to cut down
crop acreage by providing money
rewards for those who will do that
Second, steps should be taken to
protect dairy and live stock farm
ers against imported oils and fats.
Third, he wants quick tariff action
against products of nations whose
currency is depreciated. Fourth on
Mir. Murphy's program is readjust
ment of farm mortgages at reduced
interest fifth, the reduction of farm
taxes, sixth, an early revision and
settlement of war debts, and sev
enth, intensive research looking to
wider industrial uses of farm products.
I think Mr. Murphy's program
will work. My only doubt about it
is whether the politicians who run
our public affairs will see enough in
it for themselves to adopt it.
Illiteracy . Declines Here
There are still more than 4,000,000
Americans over ten years old who
cannot read and write, the National
Advisory Committee in Illiteracy
reports. That is 600,000 fewer than
ten years ago. Georgia has more
illiterates than any other state,
while Wyoming has the fewest, on
ly about 3,000.
Considering that at the beginning
of our national life hardly more
than one person in ten knew how
to read and write, that only within
my own memory practically no Ne
gro or Indian could read or write
and that school attendance was not
compulsory anywhere In America
when I was a boy, It seems to me
we have gone a long way in rais
ing the standard of education to the
point where ninety-seven people out
of every hundred are able to read.
The important question, however,
is: "What do they read?" Having
taught them to read, it seems to me
we might devote the next hundred
years to improving their tastes in
reading.
Gopher Control Districts Grow
Ontario Another petition for a
gopher control district has been
presented to the Malheur county
court, this time by the people of
the Owyhee district As still other
districts are being considered it be
gins -to look as though practically
all the irrigated lands of the coun
ty would soon be included in such
areas. This fall some 50,000 acres
were covered for the first time and
about 20,000 acres the second time.
Supervision of the work is taking
much of the time of the county ag
ent in the fall and spring.
Yamhill Farm Reorganized
Carlton Assistance has been
given a farmer in this district by
the county agent in reorganizing
his place into a stock farm rather
than continuing crop enterprises
wholly. Expense will be cut down
by having much of the land, which
is not exceptionally rich, classified
as grazing land for tax purposes.
Irrigation is being installed on 30
acres to provide pasture through
out the dry summer months.
Cow Beef Distributed at Cost
Bend Lowter grade beef cattle
are replacing old fat ewes in this
county now as the chief source of
low priced meat for those able to
pay something for such supplies.
Recently the management of the
Shevlin Hixon Lumber company
asked the county agent to get 56
cows for slaughter and delivery to
the mill to be distributed at cost.
The agent was able to obtain offers
to get such animals at two cents a
pound.
Canyon City The practice of
feeding grain to breeding ewes is
becoming a standard practice with
range men of eastern Oregon de
spite the depression, reports the
Grant county agent. Better meth
ods of feeding the grain have con
vinced the growers that the prac
tice is profitable. Experience has
shown that the ewes must be built
up at least three months before
lambing, if at all, and by starting
them on very small amounts of
grain. Small amounts of from 1-8
to 1-6 pound per head a day over a
90-day period is much better than
feeding more over a shorter per
iod.

Scrip . . . The Stamp Idea
The latest thing in the form of
money is called "stamped scrip."
The idea originated In Germany
and has been adopted In a number
of American cities, to make money
circulate faster.
In Evanston, Illinois, they work
the scheme this way: The local re
tail merchants association put $5,
000 in a bank. Then It Issued 5,000
scrip dollars, each one of them
good for a dollar at the bank if pre
sented within a week. But after
one week it was only good if it had
a special two-cent trading stamp
pasted on it. Nobody but the mer
chants had these stamps. You
have to spend the dollar at a store
to make it good. The next week
another stamp has to be put on it,
and so on for a year.
This makes each of these scrip
dollars turn over fifty-two time1? a
year, because anyone who holds
one of them has to pay two cmts
a week for the privilege of holding
It, or lose his original dollar.
Our principal money trouble Is
not a shortage of money but the
fact that it is not moving fast
enough. This scrip plan Is said to
be working well in the towns that
have tried it-

There is not a single deliquent
tax payer In the town. Not one
resident of the town is on the coun
ty poor list. There has never been
a bank failure.
If 205 people In one community
can manage their affairs as well as
that, there seems to . be no reason
why 205,000 people, or two million
people, or any number of people
cannot do equally well.
The answer, of course, Is politics.
Rowley has no large list of salar
ied taxeaters, Its people run their
own affairs,
