Community Auction
To Provide New
Market Outlet
Local Men Set
Opening Thursday
For Weekly Event
Answering what they say is a
wide-spread demand, Jack Osier and
V. R. Runnion are starting a week
ly auction sale next Thursday at the
Osier farm just south of Heppner,
the former Jim Gentry farm. Called
for 1:30 in the afternoon, the sale
will place through the ring cattle,
horses and hogs of all kinds, al
ready listed, as well as a number of
used automobiles.
The sponsors invite anyone to
bring anything which they wish to,
have sold, and list it before 10 o'
clock in the morning of the day of
the sale. While they are going to
considerable expense to set up the
sale as a private business venture,
charging commission on goods put
through the sale ring, Osier and
Runnion believe they are creating a
new market for items which beore
have not been readily marketable,
and thus are setting up a service of
general community benefit.
Osier, who will manage the sale,
is a recent newcomer to the county.
Having taken over the Gentry farm,
he has prepared facilities for hand
ling livestock and all other goods
offered for sale, expecting to make
the sale a permanent feature.
Runnion is well konwn locally for
his auctioneering ability, and has
had much experience in conducting
community auction sales. He staged
a number of these sales in Grant
county last year, all of which he
reported- were highly successful.
Community auctions, he points out,
are an established feature all over
the country, helping to provide an
outlet for small amounts of surplus
stock and equipment of both town
and country. In many instances the
sales have been the foundation for
establishment of a permanent live
stock market, for as the number of
animals offered increased, outside
buyers were attracted who assisted
in raising the local market price.
As people here become better ac
quainted with the idea of commu
nity auction, they will avail them
selves more and more of its advant
ages, Runnion says. This has been
the history elsewhere, and he is sat
isfied from the demand already evi
denced that Morrow county will ap
preciate the service.
In many places, merchants of the
city have joined forces with the
community auction, offering special
sales inducements and entertain
ment to show appreciation for the
additional cash income which the
auction makes possible, he said
Many Heppner merchants have evi
denced willingness to cooperate but
so far proper organization has not
been perfected to carry this feature
to fruition.
E. Harvey Miller has been re
tained as clerk of the sale. Details
of sales conditions will be found in
the advertisement elsewhere in this
issue.
FUTURE WELFARE STRESSED

streams that feed the lower, un
wooded valleys, providing water
for irrigation and for turning the
turbines that in turn make electrical
power for industries, as well as for
many domestic purposes.
Carl Ewing, Umatilla Forest su
pervisor from Pendleton, was also a
club guest. He said that Heppner
people should demand that the for
est resources behind the city be not
1 dissipated to the end that future
welfare of the commuinity be pro
tected. A small industry that will
be enabled to run indefinitely is of
infinitely more value to any town
than a large industry that goes
strong for a few years, then ceases,
leaving only desolation in its wake.
He said he was glad to hear the new
operation at Heppner was planning
to cut according to forest service
regulations.
J. Logie Richardson, who had just
arrived from Portland and a confer
ence with the proposed box factory
officials, told the Lions group the
officials had released word that

Frank Alfred reported progress
of the legislation protecting Morrow
county's interests in the Ditch creek
ditch, which he said was then in

surance that the bill would pass the
senate, and urged more letters be
written to help save it in the house
of representatives against the pres
sure of last-minute major legisla
