In the Blue Muun- Time Confusion Keeps on Confusing We've kept our ae pretty well on this time muddle In Oregon, but we tfcine so e.aiprrated over an Incident thl tntk that wf ran no longer withhold comment A rUr. whom we have watched develop Into a ung ldy from babyhood 20 year ago. was married Sunday In Forest Grove. We left Heppner for the wedding with plenty of time ta leach the destination, we thought, some 2.V) miles away. But a we reared Portland the horrible thought came that Forest Grove la on daylight saving time, same as Portland. ThU coupled with a little motor trouble on the road, resulted In our mlsMng the nlece'a wedding, aomethlng that we had planned on attending for 20 years. ThU wasn"t the first time the confusion fooled u. It caused us to miss connections on a Portland appointment recently. But the thought comes how many hundreds of times daily do people in the Mate mUs important engagements, get fooled on train and bua connections, and are generally Inconvenienced by the time muddle? Some mighty Interesting feature stories could be told by many, we suppose, who have had Incongruous experiences because of time Inconsistencies. The legislature may have satisfied soms of its constit uent by passing the "local option" time bill, but It certainly didn't hold to the voters' mandate who defeated daylight time at the polls Just last year. We have no great personal convictions either way on day light or atandard time. We can see advantages and disadvan tages of each. However, we do have the conviction that the legislature acted unwisely and undcmocratlcalJy on the time matter. The people have a right to feel rebuffed when the legislators turned against the expressed mandate at the polls. When the majority spoke by ballot, the lawmakers in good conscience had no right to try to find a way to circumvent this decision. It is conceded that there are many in the state who had sound and evert urgent reasons for wanting daylight time. But there were also many who had sound and urgent reasons for wanting Richard Nixon to be president, too, but they accept John Kennedy In that position simply because the majority voted for him. By acting contrary to the voters' expression, the legislature took a step that helps tend to make the public lose confidence in this lawmaking body. The confusion doesn't eliminate Itself with the passing of time, but gets worse. One thing we are learning for sure we have to be either on standard time or daylight time In ensuing years. This time muddle Is good for no one and is hard on everyone. County Agent's Office If N. C ANDERSON By H. C ANDERSON fctauM of the heavy Infes tation of strljw ruct In wheat throughout the Pacific Northwest the college have agreed to con centrate more heavily on this problem. It will cause many mil lions of dollars of loss In reduced wheat yields.

With the cost of living so high today, a great many people find they can't afford to work for what they're worth.
