Woolgrowers Have
Good Convention
At Ontario
J. G. Barratt Re
elected President;
Act on Problems.
(Eastern Oregon Observer)
The 4th annual convention of the
Oregon Wool Growers drew to a
close late Wednesday afternon (last
week) in Ontario after what officials
of the association claimed as one of
the most successful meetings ever
held by the group.
As final business of the meeting,
J. G. Barratt of Heppner was re
elected president and Herman Oliver
of John Day, president of the Ore
gon Cattleman's association, was
named vice -president. Barratt was
unopposed while Oliver won a five
way race nosing out John V. Withers
of Paisley by three votes. Other
candidates were Ernest Johnson of
Wallowa, Mac Hoke of Pendleton
and David Jones of Suntex.
Although wintry weather cut an
expected attendance of 500 wool
growers to less than 300 actually
here the meetings lacked no enthu
siasm. Prominent officials of the Na
tional Wool Growers association in
cluded R. C. Rich, Burley, Ida., pres
ident, who addressed the group Tu
esday afternoon on the problems of
the sheep industry. F. R. Marshall,
Salt Lake City, secretary, talked on
the national lamb marketing cam
paign Wednesday afternoon. Mar
shall was slated for an earlier ap
pearance on the program but was
late arriving.
Main discussions and addresses of
the convention centered on the Tay
lor Grazing act, the present slump
in the lamb market, its cause and
possible remedies, and other prob
lems pertaining to the wool industry.
Committee reports on wild life and
predatory animals, transportation,
marketing and promotion and reso
lutions and organizations tooK up
most of the afternoon meeting.
Resolutions caused considerable
debate when presented on the floor,
the most lively argument of the en
tire convention being inspired by a
resolution on the Petingill bill per
taining to the 4th clause of the trans
portation act. In transit from com
mittee recommendation to motion on
the floor before the general assenv
bly the exact intention of the recom
mending committee was reversed
and several hot arguments resulted
from the tangle. The problem was
finally solved by taking no action
on- the recommendation, allowing the
same policy as has been in effect for
the past several years to stand.

is not surprising that our tests have

Sunday School had better personality
traits than those who did not, and
that children of parents who went
to church had better personalities
than the children of parents who
did not go to church."

Our new Hymnals have arrived

the morning we will install them in

tory service will take place and the
hymnals will be formally dedicated
and blessed to the use of the church.
A service of song by the congrega
tion and special numbers by the
choir will mark this dedication. The
intermediate class of boys who were
largely responsible for earning the
money for the purchase of the books
will have a special part in the ser
vice. The new hymnal is a great
book. The Methodist Episcopal
Church, the Protestant Methodist
Church and the Methodist Episcopal
Church South all collaborated in the
compilation of the new hymnal. It
is hymnal, psalter and prayer book
combined and arranged for private
and public devotion. Come and join
with us in getting acquainted with
our new books.

Important Bills
Lacking at Salem
By A. L. LINDBECK
(State Capital News Bureau)
Salem. There is a noticeable
dearth of important legislation be
fore the session now in its second
week. Except for the need to fi
nance state activities already estab
lished no proposals have yet ap
peared in either legislative body
which would justify a long drawn
out session.
Such bills as have been thrown
into the legislative hopper are for
the most part of very minor import
ance. There are several tnat win
attract their share of attention be
fore committees and on the floor
they ever get that far but noth
ing that can be said to be of vital
importance to the welfare of the
state. For instance there is Senator
Lessard's proposal to repeal the milk
control act, and Senator Carey's pro
posal to repeal the criminal syndic
alism act and a proposal on the part
of Senator Stringer to put a stop to
the further expansion of branch
banking, all of which will precipitate
a lot of debate pro and con.
Then over in the House there is
a bill by Hyde, Eckersley, Bull, Mon
roe, Oleen, Senator Ross and others
to relieve the automobile drivers of
the necessity of pungling up a dollar
every two years for a new driving
permit which will receive the sup
port of a lot of motorists and the op
position of the highway department
and good roads enthusiasts. And an
other group of representatives have
joined in an attempt to restore the
"good time" credit practice at the
penitentiary which was upset when
Governor Martin refused to permit
the release of Earl Fehl, former
county judge of Jackson county.
This dearth of bills, however, does
not mean that the famine is to con
tinue. There are lots of ideas afloat,
many of which will materialize in
time into tangible form. Represen
tative Bull, for instance, has served
notice that he proposes to reduce the
age for participation in old age pen
sions to 65 years. If he does it will
be only after the hardest kind of a
fight for there is plenty of opposi
tion to any liberalization of the pen
sion program at this time and even
if such a measure did pass the legis
lature it would have to run the
gauntlet of the executive veto unless
Governor Martin can be shown
where the extra $3,000,000 to finance
such a program is to come from.
BEAVERS "SHOOT" SELVES.
A feature in the farm and home
magazine section of the Sunday Ore
gonian two weeks ago was a picture
of two beavers at work cutting down
a big tree on the Frank Wilkinson
place above town on Willow creek.
The feature was prepared by Jose
phine Mahoney, local Oregonian cor
respondent, from a picture obtained
by W. E. Francis, state policeman.
Mr. Francis got the picture by set
ting his camera so the beavers trip
ped it themselves. The process was
tedious and many plates were spoiled
before the picture shown was obtain
ed. Mr. Wilkinson protects the bea
vers on the belief that they are na
ture's way 'of assisting with the work
of moisture conservation. He is even
willing to let them fell the big trees
in building their dams, according to
the article.
ton, Saturday, Jan. 30, beginning at
10 a. m. Free lunch, moving pictures
and lectures showing latest improve
ments in the manufacture of up-to-date
farm machinery will be feat
ures. Introduced will be the new
McCormick-Deering TD-35 diesel
trac-tfactor.
