This week some of the good
cattle of Morrow County were
passed on to improve other herds
while improvement is progressing
by the addition of more outstand
Ing herd sires to further our good
records. Early in the week, John
Graves who has recently pur
chased a cattle ranch near Hard
man, added a Shorthorn bull to
his small herd of registered top
Shorthorns. The bull, of J. D.
Price breeding,' Conrad, Montana,
was judged grand champion of
the recent Shorthorn Show and
Sale at Spokane The bull was
outstanding in type and quality.
Also added to the herd was two
heifers, one of J. D. Price breeding
and the other from the University
of Idaho. Both are sure to add im
provement to the Graves' herd.
The bulls that go into other
herds were consigned by Everett
Harshman and Frank Anderson
of Heppner. The grand champion
bull of recent range bull sale held
at John Day was consigned by
Frank Anderson. It was a 2 plus
bull that sold far above the se
cond placing bull and went into
a registered herd as the herd sire.
Frank's consignment of 3 bulls
graded two 2 plus and one 2.
With this grand champion achi

step forwrd, winning top places

will be host at this fun night
which will be held Thursday, De

of mixers, prize dances, square

POLITICAL NEWS NAMES
ELMER DEETZ, state represen-tative-elect,
wants the legislature
to enact a milk law that will
avoid the mistakes of the past, be
meddleproof and permit the grea
est possible operation of a free
market.
The Canby "gallon jug" dairy
man who sparked the blow-up of
the old Milk Control Administra
tion should know how to put a
new one together since he so
efficiently took the old one apart.
SENATOR ANGUS GIBSON had
the legislature habit pretty strong.
After serving 10 years in the Sen
ate and four in the House he re
solved not to run again, says he
cannot trust himself to stay as
near the coming big session as
his Junction City home while the
boys are whooping it up. So what
does he do but hie to Arizona
for the duration of the fireworks.
SENATOR HOWARD C. BELTON
of Clackamas county prophesied
in the Senate four years ago that
the state would face financial
difficulties in 1955, with a possi
bility that a state tax on pro
perty might be necessary.
"The state is spending more
than it is taking in. This is
brought about by the people vot
ing for measures that call for ex
penditures outside the 6 percent
limitation. It is as simple as
that.
"The result is a duel in the
dark between the assessor and
the property owner," he told

members of the Senate.
The last property tax in Ore
gon was levied in 19-10.
HON. WALTER J. PEARSON
this week gave another strange
twist to his already unmatched
political chronicles. His election
to the House of Representatives
this month made him the first
former member of the Senate in
Oregon's history to be elected to
the House. Also the first high
state official to follow this
course. Walter J. Pearson and his
father, Walter E. Pearson, were
the only father and son to hold
the same high office in this state.
His faher's term as state treasurer
was from 1938 to 1941 and his
term was from 1949 to 1953.
A great many legislators have
"graduated" from the house "up"
to the Senate but this Multnomah
Democrat is the first to take a
post-graduate course.
Monday he pitched punch lines
when he hung to his House seat
and declined to consider an ap
pointment to the Senate. Two va
cancies will occur in the Senate
when holdover Senators Richard
L. Neuberger (Dem) and Jack
Bain (Dem) resigned. You may
have heardor where have you
been Neuberger goes to the U.
S. Senate and Jack Bain becomes
Commissioner of Multnomah
county.
SENATOR GUY CORDON was
very close in the late election. He
reports that he did not spend a
cent of his own money.
Instead of lame ducking him to
India, as was originally proposed,
the. plans since his report are to
send him to Scotland.
NEW STATE OFFICIAL
HON. E. J. IRELAND, Molalla
businessman, who was a mem
ber of the 1951 legislature was
the unanimous choice of the state
board of control when named as
their secretary Tuesday.
He will succeed Roy Mills vho
wished to retire December 1. Mills
has been secretary of the board
for the past 12 years.
Ireland has been active in civic
and political endeavors on a local
and statewide scale. During the
recent campaign he was office
manager in Portland for Gover

office.
