No new taxes were approved.
The cigarette tax was beaten, no
changes were made in the in
come tax rates although some are
due soon, seasonal farm labor
was exempted from withholding
taxes. Yet the budget was bal
anced (the biggest budget ever
and when 1951 legislators meet
there should be some money in
the pot, that iS unless the addi
tional money is approved for
schools. If that is done there will
be a property levy, but it will
not be voted on until November
1950.
Veterans were not given a bo
nus, because they did not liko
the one proposed. The house vot
ed once for a bonus but when up
for final action a group of vet
erans prepared the way for in
definite postponement saying
that they would initiate their own
plan.
Except for the addition to the
basic school plan there was no
school legislation making much
change. Some minor bills will
give an aid to consolidation par
ticularly the one permitting con
solidation of districts not con
contiguous. The county unit plan
could not win.
The big highway program as
made by an interim committee
was passed mostly because it had
already received the support of
the majority of the people. There
will be another cent on gas and
a doubled license fee. Weakness
is the big truck bill which should
charge more for use of the high
ways by these rolling box cars.
An attempt to revise the method
of dividing highway funds be
tween counties failed although
the interim committee will study
highway finances another two
years.
County salaries were all raised
and most state salaries. State em
ployees were given another
boost. There was protest but in
effectual. Pensioners were treated well
even though their self appointed
spoksemen did complain some
what. They were expected to com
plain anvway. Those on the pen
sion list will get $50 per month
and also medical care on the
basis of need as interpreted by
the federal government. Those
who have property or who are
improperly on the rolls will have
smaller chance of drawing mon
ey which will improve the posi
tion of those actually needy.
Following the regular business
meeting a short program was
presented at which time two
readings. "The Interrupted Pray
er," by Foley and "Our Lawless
Language," were given by Mrs.
J. Palmer Sorlien and two solos,
"Far Away Places" and "fialway
Bay" were sung by Faye Munk
ers accompanied by Mrs. R. D. Al
ston Jr. Those in charge of the
entertainment were Mesdames
Mabel Chaffee, Gladys Jones and
Alena Anderson. Refreshments
were served by Mesdames Mary
McMurtry, Christine Burkenbine,
Frudy Casebeer and Faye Mun-kers.
The marriage of Mrs. Adell
Vague and Roy Burkenbine, both
of Heppner, was an event of Sat
urday afternoon, with Justice of
the Peace J. O Hager pcforming
the ceremony. The couple was at
tended by Mr. and Mrs. Ernest
Moline. For the wedding, the
bride wore an afternoon dress of
blue crepe with gray accessories
and a corsage of stephanotis.
Mrs. Moline wore a navy blue en
semble with a corsage of white
blossoms. Mr. and Mrs. Burken
bine expect to make their home
in Heppner where he is employed
in the Elhkorn restaurant.
Mrs. Lloyd Mover and Mrs.
Scott Furlong motored to Pendle
ton Monday after Mrs. Moyer's
daughter, Peggy Sue, who has
been in St. Anthony's hospital
for several days. Returning they
visited relatives in Hermiston.
Mr. and Mrs. Blaine Isom of
Pendleton were attending to bus
iness matters and shopping in
Heppner Tuesday.
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Shamblin
and Mr. and Mrs. Add Moore mo
tored to Monument Saturday
w here they were week-end guests 1
of the Moore's son and daughter-in-law,
Mr. and Mrs. Emory
Moore. During their visit they at
tended the spring dance festivi
ties at the high school for which
the Moore's granddaughter, An
ita, was chosen a princess to at-
new schemes. Perhaps that was
proper. It was a defensive legis
lature. In times like these when
legislative bodies meet at what
is perhaps the top of the infla
tion, defensive tactics are best.

Mrs. Rood reports that Mrs. Ordie
Gentry who has been living with
her for the past several months,
is considerably improved in
health at this time and is able to
be up and about the house for a
good portion of the day. Mrs.
Gentry sent greetings to an ner

How We Licked
The Parking Problem
.si
For a while it looked like we'd
have to put up parking meters.
Folks working in town including
some of the store owners were
taking up all of the space alung
Main Street.
Farmers coming in to shop never
found a place to park, and some
times had to lug stuff a half mile
or so. Some started to do their buy
ing in other towns. Finally, store
owners and farmers had a get
together with the result that the
empty field near the depot was
fixed up for all-day parkers.
Now farmers get their shopping
done comfortably, and the mer
chants have a better plnce to park
than they had before. Just took a
little friendly co-operation to make
everybody happy.
From where I sit, most differ
ences can be ironed out by just
talking things over maybe with a
cup of coffee or glass of beer and
seeing the other person's side of it.
Next time you have a problem or
a little difference to settle, why not
try just that?
