Heppner Gazette Times, Thursday, February 28, 1957 Page 3 n 444 4 The high mounain in Oregon's financial range is education. The joint ways and means committee is surveying it first. When they have finished, which will be sometime around St. Patrick's Day, they will know how much money will be needed for. the state to function through' the next biennium, which ends June 30, 1959. At the beginning of this the seventh week of the current legis. lative session 1027 bills, memor ials and resolutions have been in. troduced, 410 in the Senate and 617 in the House The Senate has passed 36 of the acts and the House, with an earlier start of six days, has passed 73. Bills now in the legislature call for appropriations of $98,000,000 more than the 1955-57 general fund appropriations of $221,846, 968.05. The deadline for introduction of legislative bills has passed. Now all bills must be presented through the Rules or Ways and Means committees. The five days grace for bills in the hands of the Legislative Counsel also has ex pired. THE SENATE SPEAKS UP The Senate is buying itself a loud speaker system of the latest type for $3,214. The House of Representatives has had one for two sessions and everybody likes it. Louis de Buy, sound engineer in the House tunes the voice of members whenever they arise to speak. You might not recognize the voice of your representative when de Buy has tuned it with the acoustic properties of the large hall with its 40-foot-hlgh ceiling. Those with a modulated low voice sometimes seem to have the voice of an old time deck hand for them. Those who have a trend for heavy and powerful expostulations are given a per suasive purr. SPRING HISTORY FORUM The 1957 Spring Forum of the Oregon Historical Society has Avocado and Tuna Lenten Salad Tel "" The two layers of this avocado and tuna gel-loaf are made separately and can be served separately. However, for a Lenten main dish salad combine the fish and salad courses in one layered loaf. Tuna fish, celery and pimiento are combined for the bottom layer of the loaf. Unflavored gelatine does the molding trick. Avocado, sour cream and mayonnaise are featured with unflavored gelatine for a creamy smooth top layer. Molded Avocado and Tuna Loaf Tuna Layert 1 envelope unflavored gelatine cup cold water cup boiling water 3 tablespoons lemon juice 1 teaspoon salt 1 can (7 ounces) tuna fish, flaked 1 cup diced celery Vi cup diced pimiento Sprinkle gelatine on cold water to soften. Add boiling water and stir until gelatine is dissolvad. Add lemon juice and salt. Chill until mixture is the consistency of unbeaten egg white. Fold in flaked tuna fish, celery and pimiento. Turn into a 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan; chill until almost firm. Avocado Layert 1 envelope unflavored gelatine cup cold water 1 teaspoon sugar 2 tablespoons lemon juice V teaspoon Tabasco Sprinkle gelatine on cold water to soften.

Hospi tal fires are more prevelant than the public is aware of, many phy. sicians, nurses and former pa tients declare. Hospital mana gers also realize the problem and most Of them would gladly ac cept the provisions of such a law that covered all hospitals and was enforced simultaneously, without discrimination. Many fires in public places are extin guished and not reported to news papers. Such fires in hospitals often take toll from shock or check the turning point towards recovery. PRORATING INSURANCE Now that every other letter, phone call and doorbell ringer is from an out-of-state insurance agent a bill would be welcomed that would prohibit insurance companies from prorating insur ance payments when a person is insured in more than one com pany, unless written in the pol icy and the insured is asked to sign a waiver when the policy is delivered. (That sentence is long enough to go into one of those self-confusing "foreign" policies.) JUST FOR THE KIDS Some law enforcement officers, who start looking for flying sau cers whenever they see a boy popping around with an air rifle, think the things should be regis tered. Plenty of other folks think so too. If you have any pro or con ideas about the above sugges tions send a note to the writer of this column, addressed State house, Salem, Oregon. We will segregate the letters and deliver them to interested legislators. Legislation by mail has done some surprising things. o USE GAZETTE TIMES CLASSIFIED ADS OUR READERS ARE NOT- k TRAINED SEALS . -f BUT THEy RESPOND H, TO AD SUGGESTIONS T S7 o,. mm Cloud, noted Indian lecturer who was named American Mother four years ago. , Some of the bills that are not out of the talking stage are. ex-1 pected to be introduced certainly, are packed with human inter-' est.

SEE YOUR PONTIAC DEALER DRIVE THE SURPRISE CAR OF THE VEARI Fire flooding produce heat and pressure to boil out previously un recoverable oil, driving it underground io nearby producing mils. MANY INACTIVE WELLS STILL HAVE LOTS OF OIL left underground in spite of the industry s great advances in oil recovery. Our country must have this oil to meet the growing power requirements of industry, the Armed Forces and motorists. That s why Standard is trying a new conservation experiment called "fire flooding." We ignite some of the oil in a pool . . . control burning by regulating the air supply. Heat and pressure drive the oil to surrounding wells for pumping. It will take more than a year's time and a million dollars to see if fire flooding works. We think it's worth the effort because it could add more to U.S. underground oil reserves than the discovery of an entire new oil held. Helping find new sources to supply the oil U.S. will need in 1966 1956 8,827,000 barrels per day 1966 13,000,000 barrels per day Standard's petroleum engi neers say, "Back in 1925 the industry could predict only about 20 recovery from a new field. Modern secondary recovery methods, of which fire flooding is one of the latest, could more than double recovery."
