Heppner Man Starts
Back From Antarctic
ELLSWORTH STATION, WED
DELL SEA, Antarctic Raymond
Y Walker, fireman, USN, son of
Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Walker of
Heppner, is aboard the Navy
icebreaker USS Staten Island as
It returns, via South American
ports, to the United States.
With approximately 85 per cent
of the construction finished on
Ellsworth station, the ship got
underway today to rendezvous
with the USS Wyandot, some five
miles up the coast to start the
journey out of the Ice to South
America and home.
In a successful effort to com
plete the base before darkness
started closing in about Feb. 15,
the icebreaker furnished over half
of her crew to the Seabees to aid
in unloading and construction
operations at the campsite.
According to the base com
mander, completion of the base
would not have been possible at
this time without the assistance
of the ship's officers and men.

'SEVERAL FROM COUNTY TO TAKE PART

According to Mrs. Velma Glass

lost their lives in Oregon as the
result of accidents in their
homes. Mrs. Glass adds that four
of these deaths occurred in Mor
row county and about 800 injur
ies occurred at home.
The workshop, to be held In
Hoke hall on the Eastern Oregon
College campus, will be the first
step In reducing the toll of
deaths and injuries from home
accidents. Mrs. Glass empha
sizes that there is a great need
for an organized program in home
safety just as there is in high
way and industrial safety.
Registration for the workshop
will begin at 9 a. m. Thursday,
March 21 and the first session
will start at 10 a. m.
Most of the time during the
two days will be spent in group

The highest state office ever
held in Oregon, by a woman, will
be state industrial accident com
missioner, when Mrs. Cecelia Pa
tricia Galey takes that office
April 1.
Governor Robert D. Holmes
Thursday appointed the Ontario
attorney and jurist a member of
the accident commission which
is correlated with the unemploy
ment compensation commission.
Mrs. Galey will replace T. Mor
ris Dunne whose resignation was
requested Wednesday by Gover
nor Holmes. Dunne, who has
served 24 years on the industrial
accident commission and 20 years
on the workmens compensation
commission, resigned within an
hour after receiving the gover
nors request. He was reappointed,
for a four-year term on Jan. 7
by Gov. Elmo Smith.
Tho law reouires that not more
than two of the three commis-
sioners shall be members of the
same political party. On the re -
adjusted commission Mrs. Galey
(ReD.) will reDresent the Dublic:
L. O. Arens (Dem.) who has rep
resented the public" since his ap
pointment to the commission by
Gov. Charles A. Sprague, in 1939,
will now represent employers
and William A. Callahan (Rep.)
will continue to represent em
ployees. POLITICAL MANEUVERING
Shippers, Taxpayers, Citizens,
Railroads and Railroad Employ
ees Are Aroused, Stand Chance To
Be Seriously Hurt by . Punitive
Legislation.
Some politicians, ganging up
with big truckers have intro
duced bills that would further
burden the railroads with exces
sive taxes. There are also bills
from this same group to so regu
late the freight train service that
the railroads would not be able
to start any kind of freight train
service before getting permission
30 days in advance. It is so
fixed that a teamster, or more
than one, or a big truck owner,
or a group of big truck owners,
could protest and stop freight
train service of the railroad, and
freight train schedules could be
suspended for as long as 10
months.
No railroad would dare to in
augurate any ntw service to serve
the shipping public for fear of
reprisals from the Public Utilities
Commissioner. These politicians
and truckers, not satisfied alone
to strangle operations of the rail
roads and to heap, taxes upon
them, have introduced bills to
freeze railroad rates at high
levels to that the railroads no
longer could make any reductions
In freight rates or effect any eco
nomics. Under the conditions
which would be imposed by the
proposed legislation it is stated
that no industry would venture
to locate in Oregon, and that
many of those here would likely
move to other states.
OREGON DEMOCRAT SOLD
For eight years Monroe Sweet
land, now State Senator from
Clackamas County, has published
the monthly news-magazine,
Oregon Democrat. This week he
sold it to a trio of young Demo
crats headed by John D. Church
ill of Portland.
The little publication is the old
est continued Democratic party
house organ in any locality or
city in the nation. Vernon Wil
lims founded it when F. D. R.
took over In 1933. Senator Sweet,
land bought it when Williams
died eight years ago. Few will
deny that it has had a great in
fluence in stimulating the rise
of the Democratic party In this
state. Mr. and Mrs. Sweetland
have their hands full, they say,
editing and publishing their
weekly newspaper in the fast
growing North Clackamas County
area, so they are glad to pass
along this responsibility to new
hands.
Weekend guests of Mr. and
Mrs. E. E. Gonty were Terry Ble-
vins and Mr. and Mrs. N. D. Her-
schell and two daughters of Port
land.
