HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES, Thursday, April 16, 1964 Know Your Candidates 4 , I f BERL AKERS 1 Berl Akers Republican Candidate For Morrow County Judge We live in an era of Group Power and we must work with these groups. This is a good sit uation if we have the leader ship to unite their efforts and plan for the future growth and development of Morrow county. We must also recognize that there will always be individuals with problems and constructive criticism. This problem and the rights of the minority must al ways be protected. The Republican Party realized this obligation to the people of Morrow county when the late Russell Miller of Boardman was nominated and elected as Coun ty Commissioner almost 20 years ago without opposition. There will be no problems that we cannot solve if we unite for the good of all and keep the lines of communication open between the public and the County Court. This can be done by contact with groups, individuals, and through newspaper reports. We cannot stand still for it is certain that if we do we will lose the battle of progress. Thero is no better example of what can be done than the develop ment of the Boardman and Irrl gon areas. They have an un limited potential because of their cheap power, cheap freight, and nn abundance of water. It is to the best interest of all to give them every assistance at our dis posal. Berl Akers Is a native of Mor row county. He attended grade and high school in lone, grad uating from high school in 1934. In 193G he married Margaret Kly, and ever since they have lived on the ranch originally homesteaded by his father, R. M. Akers. They have three children, Berl, Jr., who works on a ranch near lone; Robert, a senior at Oregon State University; Wil liam, a freshman at Lewis and Clark College; anil Bonnie, who is in the seventh grade at lone. Akers served eleven years on the lone school board, and for sev eral years was Scoutmaster of the lone Boy Scout troop.

I s a FRANK HAMLIN Frank Hamlin Democratic Candidate For Morrow County Judge If elected judge of Morrow county I promise to promote our resources with strict attention to county problems. I think we ere on the verge of great develop ment in the county and 1 would like to take part in that future. Having worked with the pub lic most of my life I feel qual ified for this position. I realize the problems of a county judge are not always easy to solve and take a person who has dealt with the public for many years. I have been a businessman most of my life. I feel many of the problems which would face me as judge would be similar to those any business man is called on to solve. Though I realize it is impossible to do exactly what each person wants, because we all see problems differently, I would make it an important part of my job to work for the betterment of everyone and to get this county to pulling to gether for the good of all. With this in mind I would give full cooperation to the county school district, the road department, welfare and hospital, and the governments of the cities of Morrow. My background, as I have said, consists mostly of the bus iness world. I am a native of the state, have been a resident 56 years and was educated in Gresham public schools. During World War I, I served overseas two years with the Army Engin eers, and returned to service with the same branch for two and one-half years during World War II. I owned and operated a garage in Gresham between the wars, had the Allis-Chalmers dealership at Redmond for sev eral years before moving to Heppner in 1950. I operated A Ikons Sport Shop for seven years, before becoming manager of Barratt Sales, which I later purchased. I recently sold that business and would have full time to devote to the duties of my office. I am a member of the Amer ican Legion, Elks, Masonic Lodge, IOO F. I served as com mander of the American Legion post at Gresham three terms, on the city council two terms, and 15 years on the volunteer fire de partment. My association with the people of Morrow county and adjacent counties has been a pleasant and gratifying experience. My wife and I built a home in Heppner five years ago because we felt this is the place we want to re main. We want to be a part of the opportunities that lie ahead for us all in this county. I think a businessman is need ed in this office, I feel myself qualified, and therefore ask for your vote. Payroll deduction slips are on sale at the Gazette-Times. 1P HML STORM!
