Two matters concerning luv
eniles drew the most attention
at a meeting of Juvenile Judges
of Oregon at SalLshan lodge
south of Tart last week, County
Judge Paul Jones said alter re
turning Sunday.
Kocus of concern was on tne
Increasing use of drugs and
narcotics among young people,
and a recent supreme court oe
dsion on Juveniles' rights.
I was struck by the intense
Interest shown by the Judges on
the problem of the use of drugs."
Judge Jones said. He said they
showed grave concern about the
spread of this problem among
uvenlles.
As to the Supreme Court de
clslon on Juveniles' rights, it is
to the effect that the young per
son has the same rights to coun
scl as an adult.
Judge Jones was accompanied
by his wife to the 3-day meet
Ing. Judge William Wells, cir
cuit Judge, position one. for Mor
row and Umatilla counties, was
also present.
Presiding at the sessions was
Circuit Judge Howard J. Bland
Ing of Oregon City. County
Judge E. E. Larkin of Benton
county was elected new presi
dent of tne association.
Three Arrested
On Various Counts
Fund-Raising
To Share Help
With Red Cross
State police and Morrow coun
ty deputy sheriff arrested three
men in this area at different
times last week on separate
charges of passing bad checks,
burglary and larceny.
Gordon William Nichols, 23,
Dayville, was arrested January
23 on a warrant from Gilliam
The American Red Cross gets
85 of Us funds from the Unit
ed Fund campaign, and this is
a "true and lull partnership,"
said George PInnell, Yakima, a
member of the National Board
of Governors, American Red
Cross, at a luncheon meeting
last Tuesday in Pendleton.
But Red Cross workers some
times forect about this partner
ship," he said. "They leave all
the fund-raising to the United
Fund.'
March, the traditional Red
Cross month, is being given up
by those chapters whose funds
are raised through a United
Fund campaign, said PInnell.
"During this montn. the Kca
Cross should thank the public
for Its support through the
United Fund. We should talk
about our men in Vietnam, and
what the Red Cross does for
them."
There is no other agency to
depend on in time of war or
disaster, said Pinnell.
The mission of the Red Cross,
spelled out by congressional or
der, is this: it is an Instrument
of the United States in its in
ternational obligations in relief
and communications for our
Armed Forces . i . a system of
national and International re
lief In disasters."
The speaker, who has been
closely identified with the Red
Cross and the United Fund in
Yakima area, said promotion by
volunteers during Red Cross
Month also helps the United
Fund campaign in the autumn,
People will support something
better when they know now
their contributions are used, he
said. This is why United Fund
campaigns are successful. The

Curtis Culp and Deputy Sheriff public knows exactly where the
Dean Gilman. Nichols was ac-' money is spent,
cused on a bad check charge-, Pinnell pointed out that the
and was returned to Gilliam
county.
Also on January 23, Lee Stone,
25, Heppner, was arrested on a
burglary charge after an inves
tigation by Deputy Gilman
Stone was accused of entering
a shed on the ranch of Judge
C. C. Carmichael in Blackhorse
canyon and taking 200 gallons
of gasoline, a pump and a lack.
When Stone appeared before
Lowell Gribble, justice of the
peace, the charge was reduced
to petty larceny. Stone pleaded
guilty, was sentenced to three
months In jail and will be re
quired to make restitution of
the property. He was 4 taken to
the Umatilla county jail to start
serving the sentence.
Wade Wilbur Warren, 23,
Heppner, was arrested on Janu
ary 25 on a charge of petty lar
ceny on a Umatilla county war
rant for allegedly stealing gas
oline in Pilot Rock. He was held
here under bail of $500 before
being picked up by Umatilla
county.

Red Cross can never depend on
a standing emergency fund, be
cause "this is an emergency or
ganization that acts when the
need is there. And we don't
know when or where that need
will occur."
Every GI in Vietnam is being
supported bv the Red Cross
said Pinnell. The Red Cross is
responsible to them.
Joe Pope of Pendleton, volun
teer program consultant in fund
raising, was master of ceremo
nies at the luncheon. Attending
were volunteers from Benton-
Franklin, Garfield, and Walla
Walla counties in Washington;
Baker, Wallowa, Union, Morrow,
and Umatilla counties. Mrs.
Barbara Cutsforth, Red Cross
volunteer from Heppner repre
sented Morrow county.

community it public weliare can
provide for their support. This
is usually less costly to the tax
payer and is a far more satis
factory arrangement from the
point of view of the retarded
person and his family.
Public welfare employees are
hired through State Civil Serv
ice. Thev must pass a compet
itive examination, after which
they are individually Interview
ed to determine whether they
have qualities and interests
they need in order to do an ef
fective job for public welfare.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF
PUBLIC WELFARE?
Public welfare is a program
established by law to provide for
people who cannot take care of
themselves without help. The
major groups of people who de
pend upon welfare for money
to live on and medical care are
the aged, the disabled and
children. Besides financial help,
public weitare provides counsel
ling for some individuals and
familes who have problems re
lated to everyday living. Wher
ever possible, this counselling is
directed toward rehabilitation
and toward helping people care
for themselves as far as their
capacity permits.
HOW DO YOU CHOOSE PEO
PLE TO WORK FOR WELFARE?
Not unless your disability Is
such that it prevents you from
engaging in any gainful em
ployment. If you are able to do
some type of work by which you
can support yourself, you would
be expected to accept this type of
work, even if it were not in your
usual field.

ley, "we realize that family

All of OMSI's regular exhibit
halls will be open for viewing,
as well as any special shows

moved bv rainfall and snow
melt but water content on Jan
uary 1 was about 70 percent of
the 15-vear average U9 18-62)
These are better snow condit
ons than those which prevailed
last vear.
Fall precipitation has been
about 86 percent of the aver
age, according to the U. S.
Weather Bureau. Winter preelp
itatlon, up to January l, has
been only 68 percent of the ave
rage.
Watershed soils under the
snowpack picked up some mois
ture late in December but re
main drier than List year. These
soils are now only 70 percent of
capacity In moisture content.
Storage In Cold Springs res
ervoir was about 12,100 acre
feet on January first, far below
the 24,200 acre feet on hand one
year ago. McKay reservoir held
bout 12,000 acre feet the first
of January this year compared
with 11,300 acre feet last year,
but the usual storage on this
date is about 19,900 acre feet.
Much above average stream-
flow will be needed next spring
and summer if adequate water
supplies are to be available.
This will require much above
average accumulation of snow
in the remaining winter months.
Statewide the outlook for 19CS
water supplies in Oregon varies
from poor to fair. Oregon
reams have not yet recovered
from the long hot and dry
summer and fall. Rainfall,
snowpack and soil moisture con-J
dltions are all below or much
below average. Conditions in
