The state Department of Veterans' Affairs listed those benefits as follows: 1. Educational aid benefits ranging to $50 a month. Requires service in Korea at some time since June 25, 1950 and before termination of present hostilities. 2. Referendum to be voted up on at the next general election, to extend the, 4 percent, $6,000 State veterans' home and farm loan to Oregon men with 90 days or more active duty since June 25, 1950. Service in Korea not re quired. People's votes required because it amends the constitu tion. 3. 'War Veteran" redefined to include "every citizen who has been a member of the armed for ces (during) the period between June 25, 1950, and the cessation of the present national military emergency as determined . . by the governor . . . and who has been discharged or released there from under honorable condi tions." This new definition automati cally makes today's serviceman entitled to a $1500 state property tax exemption if 40 percent dis abled by service or to his unre married widow; to county indi gent fund assistance; and to state, county and city civil ser vice preference. o ERWIN TO HAVE SALE Reopening of the Heppner Sales yard is announced this week by Harold Erwin, manager.

Miss Reynolds, our town librar ian, really put a smart-aleck mo torist in his place last week right in center of town, corner of Main and Walnut. Her car stalled, tying up traffic. Most drivers just waited quietly realizing she couldn't help it but one fellow kept blaring away on his horn. So Miss Reynolds gets out of her car, walks over and says sweetly, "I'm afraid I can't start my en gine. If you'd like to try I'll stay here and lean on that horn for you." That stopped him! From where I sit, a lot of us are sometimes a little overeager to "sound off" before we really un derstand what it's all about. Let's try to see the other fellow's side in whatever he does how he votes, what he thinks, whether his preference is for a glass of beer or buttermilk rather than simply blast out anyone who "gets in the way" of our ideas in these matters. 8 Cubic Feet DeLuxe General Electric REFRIGERATOR 1950 Model Was priced at $329.95 NOW ON SALE AT 299.95 Heppner Hardware and Electric Company IT COVERS SO MUCH YET COSTS SO LITTLE - Yes . . .
