Page 4 Heppner Gazette Times, Thursday, August 26, 1954 DIGEST OF ELECTION LAWS The majority of opinions re quested of Attorney General Thomson during the past month concerned the election laws of Oregon. It is amazing that the follow ing points have not been ques tioned before. However it may reflect a deeper interest in clean government. The Oregon constitution does not prohibit a legislator from holding the office of mayor or councilman. The Secretary of State has no power to determine the eligibil ity of candidates for the office of circuit court judge. A private corporation may, but a P. U. D. may not, spend funds for political advertisements working for the success or defeat of a measure submitted to the electorate at an election. An Initiated measure will not be placed on the ballot unless statement of conditions and ex penditures filed therewith is in .substantial compliance with the law. Amendments to statements may be made after original fil ing. Multiple press releases are within the purview of the Cor rupt practices Act prohibiting an onymous publications and the release must bear on its face the name and address of the author and of the printer and publisher thereof. County fair board members and employes and county weed control district inspectors are holders of non -elective public positions who, under the Corrupt Practices Act, are prohibited from serving as precinct committee men. The expense incident to, and the procedure to be followed in special elections in people's util ity districts, not held concurrent ly with a general election, is the responsibility of the district anu not that of the county clerk or sheriff. The nomination of candidates to fill a vacancy created by the resignation of a state senator representing more than one county, after the day set for pri mary elections and before the general election, is made by the state central committee of each of the political parties. NO GOVERNOR "AT HOME" Typical of labor union misfor tune and calling the wrong play was the picketing of the Capitol last Monday when strikers pa raded in front of the building I with placards nettling the gover 1 nor for not calling the state legis lation board to try and end the WE'RE PROUD OF OUR PART! Have you ever stopped to think just what the electric ity that this rural electric system distributes has meant to the farm families which receive it? It would be hard to measure the total Impact, but let's consider just a lew of the things electricity has done for farm life. It has brought to the farm lights and running water and indoor plumbing Modem conveniences which have made work easier and leisure pleasanter. It has given tho farmei electrical equipment to speed his work, increase his efficiency and his productivity, to help him meet the challenge of producing more with less man power. It has given the farmwife a host of electric ap pliances to lighten the Intolerable drudgery that sent so many of her predecessors to an early grave. In short, electricity has made farm life competitive with city life. . By making farm life attractive instead of just bearable, it has helped to check the trend to ward rural depopulation, has helped to keep the necessary balance of agriculture in our economy. We are especially proud that the rural electric sys tems, which still serve a majority of America's farms, were the pioneers and guiding force in bringing elec tricity to the farm.

A, A -I 1 1 Nothing tastes quite so good on a hot day as rich fruited ice cream. It's easy to make in your own refrigerator, and handy to have at hand for kiddie snacking-, family favorite mealtime dessert, or on-the-spot refreshments for evening drop-ins. This is a basic recipe and may be varied to fit your special likes. It calls for apricots, but canned peaches, pineapple, plums, figs or berries are just as good to use. For extra-special company or party, you may like to add an additional topping of shredded coconut, chopped nuts or sauce. Apricot Ice Cream 1 No. 2 can (or jar) Vi cup sugar apricot halves 2 drops almond extract 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 cup milk Dash salt 1 cup whipping cream Drain syrup from apricots into a bowl.

Pour into refrigerator tray and put in refrig erator set at freezing temperature. Freeze until mushy. Whip cream and fold into the mixture. Finish freezing, stirring occasionally.

You Can't Beat Fruited Ice Cream OSC Plans Second Annual Livestock Auction Aug. 30 Eight progeny-tested bulls seven Hereford and one Aberdeen Angus will head the list at the second annual Oregon State col lege breeding stock auction on August 30. The sale will be at the OSC livestock pavilion start ing at 1 p. m. Mail bids should be sent to Dr. Fred F. McKenzie, head, animal husbandry department, OSC, Cor vallis. Ten yearling, two 3-year-old, and one 4-year old registered Hampshire, Romney, and South down rams also will be auctioned. The older rams have been used in OSC flocks and have excellent records, says Joe B. Johnson, OSC animal husbandman in charge of the sale. Yearling rams are from production-tested rams. Johnson says" all bulls to be sold have above average rate-of-gain, feed efficiency and are ex cellent in type. The Aberdeen Angus bull had arf unusually good feed efficiency during the testing period with the outstand ing rate of gain of 3.65 lbs per day. His calves in the college herd have gained rapidly and economically. Growing ration during the testing period when the animals were from 500 to 800 lbs. in weight consisted of two-thirds roughage and one third concentrate. Another top-notch performer among the Hereford bulls to be sold, according to Johnson, is Court Lionheart 39. He has been used at the Astoria branch sta tion and in the OSC Adair Ranch herd. His calves from all types of cows have been excellent in conformation and rapidity of gain. Several of the bulls on sale carry English bloodlines recently imported by Canada and Ameri can cattlemen. Rams are of the Southdown, Romney, Hampshire, and Suffolk bloodlines. Terms and conditions are the same as those of other auction ii voetnnw nrnduction sales. Copies iha caip mtaloe are available from the OSC animal husbandry department. Mr. and Mrs. W. C.

None of the governors pro tern was in Salem. Patterson was in Washington D. C, Senate Presi dent Gene Marsh in Tacoma and Speaker of the House Wilhelm in Portland. Had any of the three been at the Capitol the workers would have found that Governor Pat terson had neglected to have a functioning conciliation board. He had to fill it out after return ing from Washington. MCiRE GAS TAX Oregon's State Highway Engi neer R. II. Baldock says Oregon needs more money for highways. The rapidly increasing popula tion is demanding more and bet ter roads to sustain industrial re quirements. A 2-cent-a gallon boost in state casoline tax would increase the $17 a year, paid by the average motorist for gasoline tax and license payments, to $59. MILK ACT ON BALLOT A completed expense statement was accepted Wednesdy that will place on the November election ballot an initiative to repeal state milk control. The attorney general had ruled the first expense statement wasn't complete and the initia tive could not go on the ballot unless an extended report was filed. n Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Carter and children have returned from a weeks vacation spent in Seattle.
