HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, SEPT. 9, 1937 PAGE SEVEN SSFalNEWS o Labor Candidate o Land Blocking o New School Supt. By A. L. LINDBECK SALEM. Apparently despairing of their efforts to persuade Dr. J. F. Hosch of Bend to enter the list as a candidate for governor, labor lead ers are now said to be tempting Hen ry Hess of La Grande with offers of support. As a member of the state senate from Union county, Hess was always recognized as a staunch friend of labor and it is understood that he is giving the gubernatorial situation his serious consideration. Dr. Hosch who for a time was re garded as labor's best bet in the forthcoming campaign is understood to be luke warm toward the idea of Ilnning for governor. Instead he is said to be looking with a longing eye in the direction of the national capital and it would not be at all surprising to see him contest Walter M. Pierce of La Grande for the dem ocratic nomination for Congress in the second district next spring. If he does not, he will content himself with, another term in the state leg islature where he will be a strong contender for the House Speaker ship, that is if the Democrats retain their cintrol of that organization for another session. In the meantime Howard Latour ette of Portland is still to be reck oned with in any consideration of Democratic gubernatorial possibili ties.

The public hearing scheduled by the State Land board for next Mon day when the question of blocking the state's widely scattered school lands into more compact grazing units will be up for consideration will be marked by demand for action by State Treasurer Holman who has shown considerable irritation over the failure of the land board to take any definite action on his proposal after nearly 18 months of consider ation. Two separate proposals are now before the board. One of these provides for the blocking of state lands around private holdings in units of a size to meet the needs of the several stockmen. The other pro posal involves the blocking of all the state's holdings into from 16 to 20 large units to take in the best of the grazing lands in central and southern Oregon. These areas would be well scattered over the several grazing counties of eastern Orgon and would be leased to the highest bidder. W. L. Gosslin, secretary to Gov ernor Martin, has recommended to the governor that a widespread pro gram of reform in the state's law enforcement machinery be sponsored by the state administration. This proposed reform would include the consolidation of circuit court dis tricts into larger units in order to eliminate some of the present judges and the creation of a Department of Justice for Oregon based upon the present federal system. Under this department' the entire state would operate as a single unit in the su pervision and enforcement of crim inal laws. The attorney general and all district attorneys would be ap pointed by the governor without re spect to geographical location. The proposed reform, according to Goss lin, would not only result in greater efficiency in law enforcement, but personnel would be materially re duced. A high point in state affairs this week was the induction of Rex Put nam into office as state superinten dent of public instruction. Putnam, who comes to the state department of education from Albany where he served as city superintendent of schools for several years, is the 11th individual to fill this position since its creation 65 years ago. Incidently he is also the third democrat to hold office, both of his Democratic pre decessors, like himself, attaining to the position through appointment. Million dollar months have be come the customary thing in gaso line tax revenues. July was the third consecutive month during which the revenues from this source exceeded the million dollar mark according to Secretary of State Snell. Inci dentally July set a new all-time high mark in gasoline sales with 23, 702,505 gallons of the motor fuel sold during the month on which the state tax amounted to $1,185,125. State affairs which, like most oth er activities, have been in the dol drums during the summer vacation period, are back to normal again now that Labor Day has come and gone.

Announcement of the prices be ing paid by the Capitol Reconstruc tion commission for property in Sa lem to be included in the enlarged capitol site has aroused a deal of comment, much of it flavored with criticism. Many persons familiar with property values in Salem feel that the prices being paid for the new state property are entirely too high, especially since the purchase price in some instances amounts to approximately five times the as sessed value on which the owner has been paying taxes. Defenders of the commission's action justify the high prices on the ground that they are based on sentimental rather than in trinsic values. The Stayton-sponsored caravan over the North Santiam highway to Bend last week was given a dis tinctly official flavor by the pres ence of Governbr Martin, State Treasurer Holman, Secretary of State Snell and all three members of the State Highway commission, as well as several engineers from the high way department. With both ends of this route now highly improved the highway commission is being pressed to complete the route at an early date. Principal obstacle to this pro gram is the 12 miles through the North Santiam gorge, construction of which will entail an expenditure of some $1,300,000 according to the highway department estimates, e The reference by Governor Mar tin to the "next governor" of Oregon, in a speech at Bend last week was interpreted by many as equivalent to reading himself out of the picture as a contender for a second term. Supporters of the second term idea, however, counter with the sugges tion that Martin if re-elected would be the "next governor" just as much as would any other candidate who might gain the favor of the elector ate. Victir Hassen of Portland is not one to put off until tomorrow that which can just as well be done to day. Although it is still more than eight months until the primary elec tion Hassen has already filed as a candidate for the democratic nom ination for state senator from Mult nomah county.

Ernest B. Southwick who escaped from the Oregon state prison 18 years ago will not be required to re turn and complete his sentence, the state parole board has ruled. South wick, now 38, was apprehended re cently at Boise, Idaho, where he has lived for a number of years as a law-abiding citizen Hop growers of western Oregon suffered heavy losses this year be cause of inability to secure enough pickers to harvest their crop prompt ly, according to John Cooter, farm placement director. Between 2000 and 3000 more pickers could have found employment in the hop yards of Oregon this year, Cooter said. Cooter was unable to account for the shortage of labor inasmuch as no difficulty had been experienced in supplying labor for other seasonal crops. Good Grass Seed Makes Best Showing The advantage of using a good grade pasture seed mixture in re seeding burned-over land was given a practical demonstration this sea son on the W. H. Bonney farm in Clackamas county where, through the cooperation of County Agent J. J. Inskeep, a comparative seeding was made. Soon after a fire had burned through a section of timber, an acre of the ground was seeded to a mix ture of such grasses as English rye, chewing fescue, tall meadow oat, and several others. A narrow strip was left unseeded directly beside this, and then an acre was seeded to a cheap burn mixture, consisting of such grasses as common rye, cheat, mesquite and the like. This summer the strip left un seeded is a mass of fern and wild blackberries. The plot seeded to the cheap grass mixture has some fern and blackberries growing on it, in termixed with the more hardy of the grasses, although there is little of the common rye grass left. On the acre seeded to a good mix ture, on the other hand, there is a thick stand of knee-high grass that has given the fern and wild black berries so much competition that they are scarcely noticeable.
