Move That Bomb Range
Help is coming from nelghlx-ring counties In requesting
the Navy move its practice bombing operations to another
location. Hut It appears that more ami more help must
ordinate right here In Morro Count) to pet the ol. done.
The Saw seems most reluctant to lose its bombing
range as It' is Ideally located and suited to Its purposes.
Several years ago, according to Cazette-Ttmes editorial.-.,
efforts ere being made to get the bombing ramie moved
In one Instance an admiral and other high brass appeared
EforT the SepJner.Morro County Chamber of Commerce
and appealed to their listeners' patriotism to leave the range
here it as.
It seems to us the Navy hasn't clumped a bit. The Navy
committed itself In 1939 to look for another site uhen the
John Day Dam as completed. The Navy looked over at
least six sites but never found any thine suitable or close
enough to northeastern Washington Navy air stations.
A good man government operations move slower than a
dead turtle, "we have no way of knowing whether the Navy
can I turned around in its thinking. It is plain howeve
that moving the tombing range is the key to whether the
Portland General Electric will be allowed to build the nuc
lear power plant at Carty Reservoir near Boardman The
Dlant with its irrigation provisions, is more important than
eTer before as stringent controls for irrigating wells seems
to be somewhere in the offing.
Developments bv the Boeing Company and others in the
Boardman area mean only one thing to us -- JOBS- Im
portant side benefits will come from a reduction in taxes
if the power plant can be built.
If you've alreadv written the Secretary of Defense and our
Congressmen, fine. PLEASE - do It again! A regular snow
storm of letters may help speed up this important operation.
About Beth Horn's Flower Book
There s got to be some advantages to owning a weekly
newspaper. One of the greatest arrived last week. A
Wildflowers book by Elizabeth L. Horn. Every so often a
publisher sends a book ... free. The right size for carry
ing in a pack, color pictures taken in natural surroundings
and categorized as to the surroundings where it can usually
WhiUlt was written for the Cascades, read it completely
vou'll find many old friends from the Blue Mountains. Flo
wers like people are much more interesting and appealing
if we know their names and a little about them. Is the fruit
edible? Does tms plant get any bigger? Where else
can It be found?
Many of the flowers were familiar but no names. As
I read about the author I became convinced ihat the Eliza
beth Horn was "Beth Horn" whose husband Kirk taught at
Heppner High School. Then later she gives a credit line
to Kirk for pictures he took for the cover and pages 6 and
120. Then on page 92 there's a picture of Kirk seated in
a meadow of wild flowers.
The book is tremendous. Great for amateurs. The photo
graphs will make identification fun.
There's no price on the book but Touchstone Press Box
81, Beaverton, Oregon 97005 are the publishers. Send for
a book. You 11 be glad you aia.

To The Fditor:
We wish to express our sin
cere gratitude In regard to
your interest in the "Show
Me Tour' April 20th. Hope
fully, your efforts were re
warded, as we attempted to
cover several critical points
of overall neglect within our
forested areas.
Our group has been em
barrassed that the Morrow
County Court and the Hep
pner Chamber of Commerce
sees very little concern per
Lulling to the tours selected
examples of multiple use ma
nagement, conservation prac
tices, county road main
tenance, long range planning,
county development and free
dom of the press.
April 30th, we uncovered
a fine petrified wood speci
men which compliments the
fossils and shore line evi
dence of our Texas Butte
sand-stone rock formations.
These Clarno formations date
back Into the Eocene Epoch,
fifty to sixty million years.
We are very impressed that
some of our more knowled
geable administrators see the
significant values of todayand
tomorrow, as we attempt to
determine the "Best Use" of
various forested acreages.

In Kef. to your article on
Sheepskin money.
As I recall. Dean Goodman
(deceased) was president.
Leonard L. Gilliam (deceas
ed) brother of Earle Gilliam,
father of Donald Gilliam was
treasurer.
1 also was on the what
ever It was called maybe
Secretary. I don't remem
ber too long ago.
The real sheepskin script
was nude up In Boston and
the paper script was used
in business. We sold the
leather script as souven
irs. I used to Like lots
of It to Portland it was
easy to sell and we nude
money on this.
The merchants were won
derful and as I recall we
stayed on It one year as
real money.
Only one big business re
fused to accept or use It.
To them It was real money
or they would not play.
The Library must have
some. I had one leather
piece but sent it to England.
I'm sure you can locate
much of It kept by the "old
timers". Ask EarleGllliam,
Ralph Thompson.
Look through Gazettes of
that vintage.
