With the vote counted. It U good to be able to look back
and say that there are no great wounds to heal, and we can
expect to move ahead In harmony.
Change in County Administration
County Judge Oscar Peterson, defeated by Paul Jn
dliinted at losing the position at which he has workedfor
thTnkst seven years, but he Is a most gracious loser. His post
?kX S!2t was that he hopes to be able to , continue
in Venice to the county on a volunteer basis on PJects that
he h" initiated or has stimulated during hi period in office.
When the Judge leaves office, he can take considerable pride
in his aVhlevemfnts and depart with the knowledge tha he
has worked ever in good conscience, with honesty and with a
sYne Ere to promote and build .Jl
has been a fine spokesman, and he has gained respect m
ever he has traveled to represent the county. He is president of
e Mid-Columbia Planning council, a director of Inland Empire
Waterways and has similar positions with a number of other
associations.
He has worked consistently for better highways in Morrow
county Sd I has repeatedly gone to the Highway Commission
S seek them. He has been equally strenuous in his work for
toeTkeur it is apparent that Judge .Peterson
.i,n. n rontlnue serving the county and its people. It is a
word o 'a?prSon7o?ga job well done, and although there
Tre those who did not agree with him on some actions, both
ttos?Sho supported him and those who not did must agree
Safhrwill leave a record that will reflect to his credit In years
t0 In Paul Jones, the county can expect a vigorous leadership
in the court house. He has promised this in his campa gn and
shows SSy evidence of attempting to fulfill the promise. The
judgewho will take office after the first of the year, can , be
co7n ed on to continue working on the major projects that
Judge Peterson has been pushing.. He has been given a clear
majority by the voters, and it is apparent that he is earnest
in his desire to further the best interests of the county and its
people, at the same time planning to keep in mind his slogan,
"Maximum use of our tax dollar."
The Road Levy Bows
Some considerable surprise was expressed on ts el?
dav at the fact that the county road levy went down to defeat
Syysome loo votes. In fact, it 'polled a "no" majority in every
orecinct of the county but one. ,,
TCe levy called for less than the last three-year levy that
was easily approved by the voters, and the county has hadno
difficulty in passing previous serial levies for the same purpose,
eoine on this basis for some 12 years.
It appears that this was a case of taking too much for
wanted Little effort was put into explaining to voters the need
tor it nor what the program would be. In the old days, when
the levy was proposed in the form of mills rather than a total
sum V didn't seem quite so painful But . $100,000 torus as a
substantial amount, and without a careful explanation of a
planned program, this may appear to be too much of a blank
Chejud"ge.elect Paul Jones says that the county must hav ( the
serial levy for its road program. The current levy doesn t expire
until the end of the current fiscal year, so there is time to propose
another by special election. . . -
Ii this is done, it will be necessary to do a better Job of
explaining the need to voters or the result undoubtedly will
be the same.
How About OUR Jail?
Death of two prisoners by suffocation from smoke issuing
from a mattress fire in the Oceanlake Jail has spotlighted
puWic indignation on that coastal community The two were
Forked up on charges of drunkenness and were left unattended.
Such a happening is rare, but the Oceanlake incident proves
that it does happen. Probably there are many small commun
Hies which do not have night Jailers. In many cases the need
is infrequent, and the hiring of such a Jailer adds cost to
bU Buhowever inconvenient and regardless of the cost, it is
aDDarent that this is a risk that should not be run. It isn t a
rrettv picture when one thinks of the desperation and agony
of the trapped pair seeking escape. If it occurred that they were
overcome in sleep, it is I little less horrible but nonetheless
'"Morrow county, jail "boarders" who have extended terms
are usually taken to Pendleton and Portland where there is
tetter provision for-their care. However, the jail is used often
mnre "temporary" basis.
With this recent lesson on. the front pages of the papers,
the county court should consider the matter of providing a
night Jailer when needed. It could happen here.

Mrs. Jack Christensen, Redmond,
chairman for state CowBelles
gift certificate committee.
"At this time more than half
of the counties in Oregon have
a CowBelle chairman in charge
of promotions and sale of certifi
cates in their local counties,"
Mrs. Christensen stated.
The idea is a simple one. Any
person, firm or group can buy
Beef Gift Certificates in denomi
nations of $5.00, $10.00, and
$15.00 from the Oregon Beef
Council, Imperial Hotel, Port
land, or from the various county
CowBelle groups in the state.
The individuals or firms then
use these certificates as gifts to
customers, employes and friends.
Recipients oi tne ueei uui v--
lifUota. fair a thorn to the food
store of their choice, any place
in the state or nauon, ana
change them for beef, up to the
amount of the certificate. The
gift certificates are good until
used. The food retailer clears
this Beef Gift Certificate through
r.iz hanlr an he would anv
other check. The money receiv-
ed from each individual or dusi
ness firm purchasing these cer
tificates is deposited in an ac
count at the First National Bank
of Oregon.
The Oregon Beef Council,
along with the statewide Cow
Belle organization, urges each
cattleman to give at least one
Beef Gift Certificate this Christ
mas. Orders may be made
through the local county Cow
Belle organization or through
