' STATE JOBS AND POLITICS Politics among state employ ees has been taken on a new tempo since Oregon's Attorney General Robert Y Thornton rul ed that a state employee in un classified service may be a can didate for political office while still holding his position. The opnion was requested by the recently created State Board of Auctioneers. ACCOLADE FOR NEWSMAN Something was started in Sa lem last week that could go everywhere. Someone from the chamber of commerce came into the Capitol Journal newsroom and said "We're going to have a Steve Stone Day next Monday. Here's the Mayor's proclama tion." The unusual news value of the herald was almost over looked and nearly missed the deadline for page one. That was because all hands were beating up the quiet Steve with congrat ulations. "It just fits Steve. It just suits us." they shouted. Newspaper folks are so used to playing up the other fellow that it shocked the crew. Seem ed something like using the pro noun I without quotes. Then what is a newsman supposed to do except dish it out, friend, draw salary and keep from get ting so good he will get a by line instead of a raise. The noon lunch honoring Steve Stone was a record breaker ln several ways. There were present many state, county and city officials, educators, politicians and count less friends. Stanley Grove, C of C manager, said there were many chamber members present he had never met, But they came to see the man that became their friend the first day they met. That's Steve Stone. BIG DAM FIGHT AGAIN The long fight for the high Hells Canyon Dam on the Snake River is not dead. A bill authorizing construct ion of the dam passed the sen ate in May but was defeated last week in a House committee 15 to 13. Two Southern Demo crats were pursuaded to join Re publicans in the maneuver. The fight . has followed party lines for six years. James T Marr and George Brown of the National Hells Can yon Assn. are confident the bill lllWIl Your Heppner General Tire Dealer Ford's Tire Service will pass the next congress. "November's elections, they be lieve, will weaken the private power interests." ALL-ARABIAN SHOW The 12th annual All-Arabian Horse Show is booked at the Fairgrounds Stadium Salem, for June 21 and 22.

There will be a dressdge exhi- bitation by Ward W Wells of Oswego and his goiaen raio mino, Sharik's Son. UNEMPLOYMENT PAY VARIES Washington D C newspapers made favorable headline com ment and editorialized on pro posals made last week by Mrs Celia Galey, Chairman 01 tne Workmen's Unemployment Com pensation Commission, when tes tifying before the House Ways and Means committee. Mrs Galey proposed a review of the advisability of adjusting Federal requirements and state laws pertaining to the length of payments for unemployment and the per day payments. Some states have a tax floor of 2.7 while others are at 510. Some states have a limit of $468 per year payments for unemploy ment, others are as high as $1170. Oregon's limit is $1040. Mrs Galey favors state unem ployment compensation over Federal compensation. REALTY BOARD CHANGE William Frohnmayer, Medford realtor, has been appointed to the State Real Estate Board, by Governor Holmes. Frohnmayer, an Oregon native who has been in the real estate business in Medford since 1950, succeeds E M Chilcote of Klam ath Falls on the five-man board which conducts examinations for applicants for brokers' and sales men's license. His appointment runs until June 5, 1962. CALENDAR CHANGE The State Highway Commis sion won its argument with the State Civil Service Commission over overtime pay for its employ ees for Sunday work. But it had to change the calendar to do it. The Civil Service Commission ruled against overtime pay on grounds that Sunday was the first day of the week. It said overtime pay could be granted only after five days were worked. So the Highway Commission ordered that Monday be consid ered as the first day of each week. That did it.
