Housing Accommodations
For Legion Meet Ample
The Dalles, July 31. Every vis
itpr who registers for the 1935 state
convention of the American Legion
here August 14, 15, 16 and 17 will
be assured of a place to sleep and
plenty to eat, It was declared here
today by the Mid-Columbia Legion
Convention commission.
Despite belief to the contrary, the
hotels, rooming houses, auto camps
and private homes of The Dalles
can absorb at least 5,000 overnight
guests without crowding, and can
feed 20,000 at its hotels, restaurants,
fountains, lunch rooms, and church
social rooms.
To take care of the influx of vis
itors during the convention, six
church organizations will serve
meals in their spacious quarters all
four days of the annual event, re
lieving possible congestion in the
50 regular eating places.
There will be no "profiteering,"
either, according to the commis
sion, for the adoption of a very
reasonable price scale has been an
nounced by the caterers and church
societies, with no increase in regu
lar rates. Hotel and rooming
house rates will be according to the
regular scale, with all rooms being
assigned by the Legion Housing
committee.
The Dalles convention commis
sion Is spending $8,000 to stage the
four-day event, it is declared, and
has arranged a program of enter
tainment far eclipsing anything
ever offered before at Legion con
ventions outside of the larger cities,
One outstanding event will be
the World war spectacle and dram
atization of the life of a World war
recruit, scheduled for Wednesday
night, August 14, at Amotan field.
"America Fights 1918," will pre
sent 20 thrilling episodes in the life
of a World war recruit, Including
f " iP!5PJ
yN-, :
HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES,
an airplane crash, a night raid "ov
er Paris," a monster sham battle
and the torpedoing and "sinking"
of an immense replica of a United
States Army transport
The statewide annual drum corps
contest is scheduled for Friday
night, August 16, and the annual
convention parade, combined with
Old Fort Dalles Frolics pioneer
pageant, for 6:30 p. m. Thursday,
August 15.
Now that the annual "hot spell' is
over. The Dalles is enjoying its ac
customed mild summer weather,
with its consistent cooling breezes
blowing from the west.
Temperature records for the last
10 years show that only once in that
time on August 14, 15, 16 or 17 has
the temperature gone over 100
above. Temperatures of 86 to 90
during the day and from 50 to 75
above have been the universal rule
for 10 years on the same dates, It
is declared. The records also show
that strong breezes from the west
sweep up through the Columbia
Gorge practically every day during
August, reducing temperatures dur
ing the day and making the nights
delightfully cool, as they are at the
present time in the convention city.
Wallace to Keep Watch
On N.W. Wheat Supplies
Assistance of the Agricultural
Adjustment administration in es
tablishing or reestablishing facil
ities for disposing of the Pacific
northwest wheat surplus will de
pend upon the size of the wheat
crop nationally and the regional
distribution of such surplus as may
occur.
This was the answer in part from
Secretary Wallace to a special In
terstate committee headed by Wm.
A. Schoenfeld of OSC which called
upon him in Walla Walla asking
the resumption of business by the
Emergency Export corporation.
Secretary Wallace told the com
mittee that heunderstands the pe
culiar situation confronting the
growers of the inland empire, and
said that if conditions become such
that price levels are threatened in
this region he will not be unsympa
thetic toward taking such steps in
surplus removal as may be neces
sary. Such operations are specif
ically authorized by the AA act
Meanwhile announcement has
been received from Washington
that the AAA will seek a goal of
some 53,000,000 acres of wheat un
der contract for the new four-year
program just being launched.
Live Stock Men Are
Paying Off Debts
How rising live stock prices have
helped turn the tide for northwest
cattle and sheep men is indicated
by a report from the Federal Inter
mediate Credit bank of Spokane
that live stock paper to the extent
of $6,570,000 has been liquidated
during the past four months out of
marketing receipts. Payments from
the sale of stored wool have to
talled more than . $4,000,000 and
from cattle and lambs $1,730,000
and $840,000 respectively.
"It is highly cheering to see op
erators have an opportunity to re
duce their borrowing and liquidate
their debts under more favorable
conditions," says Paul F. Matson,
vice-president of the bank. "With
out this source of credit many of
them would have been forced to
liquidate on a ruinously low mar
ket. Now they have a chance to
share in the ' improvement of
prices.
The Intermediate credit bank does
not lend directly to stock men or
farmers, nor does it lend federal
treasury money. It discounts sound
ly secured agricultural paper for
live stock loan companies, cooper
ative production credit associations,
rural banks, etc., obtaining its loan
funds by marketing debentures to
the investing public. Credit bank
debentures are in such favorable
demand that a record low discount
rate of 2 per cent has been in effect
for more than a year. Lending in
stitutions which discount through
the bank are restricted to a mar
gin of 3 per cent, establishing a
present rate of 5 per cent to farm
ers.
The credit bank has approximate
ly $27,000,000 of sheep, cattle and
dairy loans outstanding.

HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 1;
NEW SAFETY LAW
CUTS MOTOR TOLL
States With 65 Percent of Regis
trations Have Act Similar
to Oregon's.
Experience of other states hav- j
Ing the safety responsibility law
indicates that Oregon's automobile
fatality record will be held in snub
by similar legislation which went
into effect here last month, accord
ing to records compiled by Ray
Conway, manager of the Oregon
State Motor association and pub
lished in the July issue of the Ore
gon Motorist
The law, providing that the mo
torist's right to drive might be re
voked if he proved himself negli
gent, reckless and irresponsible,
has been adopted in states contain
ing more than 65 per cent of the
motor vehicle registrations in the
country.
Traffic fatalities in 21 states op
erating under the law Increased
only 10.3 per cent in 1934 over 1933,
Mr. Conway pointed out, while
states not having the law recorded
an Increase of 29.5 per cent during
the same period, or an increase of
nearly three times.
Likewise, It was explained, the
safety responsibility law worked to
advantage in California, where fa
talities showed an increase of only
11 per cent in 1934. Oregon, its
northern neighbor, experienced an
increase of 22 per cent, or twice
that of California.
No state that has thus far
adopted the safety responsibility
law has taken a backward step,"
says the association's manager.
'The tendency of legislatures has
been toward the strengthening of
its provisions from year to year.
After an intensive study by the
Dominion government, every pro
vince of Canada, with the excep
tion of Quebec, has enacted the law
in entirety. Eighty-five per cent of
Canadian motorists are subject to
its provisions. Compulsory auto
mobile insurance, which antidated
it, is still confined to Massachusetts
alone.
The safety responsibility law
was primarily coneeived as a safety
measure. It was directed at the
minority of reckless drivers who
have demonstrated that they are
an actual or a potential menace to
the safety of others."
Mr. Conway outlined three basic
principles as follows:
1. In addition to whatever pen
alties the state laws now or later
provide for these offenders, the
safety responsibility law definitely
bars such persons from the road
until they furnish satisfactory proof
of their ability to compensate flnan
cially for any future damages
caused by them.
2. Suspension of the driving
rights and ownership registration
of all persons against whom a final
court judgment has been legally
rendered and who have failed to
satisfy such judgment This sus
pension is to remain in effect not
only until such judgment has been
satisfied within reasonable amounts
but also until responsibility has
been established for any future
damages caused. By this provis
ion a motorist will realize that he
must drive carefully and avoid ac
cidents lest he lose his privilege of
driving by reason of inability to pay
a judgment obtained against him.
3. Provides for reciprocal agree
ments with other states so that the
suspension of the operator's license
in Oregon applies also to all other
states having safety responsibility
law. Similarly, dangerous drivers
who have had their driving licenses
revoked in other states can not
drive a car in Oregon.
Farmers Now Know Costs
Since More Keep Records
More Oregon farmers can tell you
accurately this year what the cost
of a crop is in comparison to re-
turns than have ever been able to
do it before. The reason is that
more farm records are being kept
this year in practically every Ore
gon county than at any time in the
past, records of the extension ag-
Now Able to Eat Any
thing Says Traveling
Salesman
From C. E. Jeffries, traveling
salesman, Neosho, Mo., comes the
following letter: "I suffered all last
year from stomach trouble and tried
many well-known preparations. I
feel very grateful to Mr. Wilson at
Neosho for recommending Williams
S.L.K. Formula to me. The relief
this medicine has given me has
been wonderful. I no longer have
gassy pains and sour stomach, and
whereas I formerly lived on a liquid
diet, I now enjoy a wide selection
of foods denied me before."
Your druggist Is your friend. Ask
him about Williams S. L. K. Formu
la. You, too, should feel grateful
for this wonderful doctor's prescrip
tion for stomach, liver and kidney
disorders. Williams S. L. K. For
mula is sold and recommended by
Patterson & Son Drug Store, and
they will refund the purchase price
if you are not satisfied with the re
sults after a trial.

Approximately 1500 copies of the
Oregon farm record book were dis
tributed during the 12 months end
ing June 30. In addition hundreds
of AAA farm record books are In
use, especially in localities where
large numbers of wheat and corn
hog contracts were signed by farm
ers.
Encouragement and training in
record keeping given by county
agents, Smith-Hughes teachers and
agricultural committees of farm
and bank oganizations are factors
in the increased activity in this
field. The Farm Credit adminis
tration and the AAA have empha
sized the importance of more and
better farm records.
Forest Holds Promise of
Much Succulent Fruit
By F. F. WEHMEYER.
Huckleberries are beginning to
ripen, and we have every promise
of a fair to good crop of this suc
culent fruit Pickers entering the
mountains are requested to obtain
a campfire permit and come equip
ped with an axe, shovel and water
bucket. We earnestly solicit their
cooperation in exercising every care
with fire. Be sure to drown out
your campfire when leaving it, even
if only for a few minutes. If it is
necessary to smoke, sit down, or
stop the car, and smoke. Put out
the snipe or burned match before
disposing of it. Any bit of care
lessness may be the basis of heavy
damages, or even the loss of human
life.
PWA Gives $50,000 For
Oregon Liver Fluke War
Corvallis PWA funds totaling
$50,000 have been allotted to Ore
gon for use here as part of a na
tional campaign against the liver
nuke and similar internal parasites
of sheep, Dr. Robert Jay, federal
veterinarian at O. S. C. has an
nounced. The work is to be car
ried out under a "rush" program
designed to accomplish much in the
cleanup campaign while giving
work to thousands on relief rolls
within 2 months.
Amounts have been allocated by
the government officials to various
counties in which relief help can be
obtained. Drainage of swampy
areas, and spreading of copper sul
fate where drainage is not prac
tical, is the program being followed.
These control measures, aimed at
exterminating the snail host of the
flukes, are in accordance with the
life history and control worked out
first by the OSC veterinary depart-
ment some years ago.
