PROCLAMATION
Saturday, May 28 was set aside
as Poppy Day in Heppner in a
proclamation issued today by
Mayor Conley Lanham. The pro
clamation urges all citizens to
observe the day by wearing me
morial poppies in honor of those
who gave their lives in the two
World Wars t stated:
"Whereas, many men of Hepp
gave tneir lives in defense of
, United states o America in
World War I and World War II;
and
"Whereas, Memory of their ser
vice an dsacritice Is a source ot
great inspiration to all citizens
as our nation faces new difficul-
ies and dangers; and
"Whereas, This memory is kept
right by the annual wearing of
memorial poppies in their honor
and in honor of all other Ameri
cans who died in world war ser
vice; "Now, therefore, I, Conley Lan
ham, Mayor of the City of Hepp
ner, do hereby proclaim Satur
day, May 28, to be Poppy Day in
the City of Heppner, and urge
that all citizens observe the day
by wearing the memorial poppy.
Random Thoughts...
Apparently there is nothing
that can be done to relieve the
housing shortage here. Numerous
residences are under construction
at present, yet the housing short
age is acute. Scarcely a day pas
ses that one or more people do
not come to this office to inquire
about housing. Some of these
people will be here temporarily
while others are looking for per
manent residence. New people
are coming into the state every
day. Thousands of them will be
added by the end of the year. Not
all of the newcomers will settle
west of the Cascades. Neither will
all of those drifting into eastern
Oregon settle around the govern
ment projects or established irri
gated districts. Some of them are
drifting this way. They are not
attracted by big payroll indus
tries, by irrigated lands. They are
looking for homes and any little
town offering good living advan
tages will draw Its share. That
appears to be the situation so far
as Heppner Is concerned. We have
numerous living advantages to
offer and to date there is work
for nearly all who want work.
But they will not remain here if
unable to secure ample housing,
even if they have good jobs.
This is one last plea to the j
public spirited citizens of Hepp
ner lo turn out and help with the
lob of finishing the tennis courts
it (lie school. A few sections re
, i iln to be poured and until this
too is completed the summer
recreational program Is being
held up. It Is fully realized that
ill of us are busy these days and
it is difficult to arrange time for
extra duties but not only is the
('creation program being im-vdi-d,
our ch ic pride Is at stake
i well., A good sized crew can
finish the job in one working per
iod. Lot it not be said thnt Hepp
ner starts things she can't finish.
