On the occasion of its lOlsl Annual Convention, the N.H

U.S. s;uiit)nint citizens, is.Mj.d a statement through its
president General Muxell E. liich that helps to sun U the

The members of the National Kifle Association arc. in
truth, a "...cross section of America. ..." These are the
people and this is the organization that antlfn fanatics ami
antiun las seek to punish. Rarely has there hern a more
flagrant attempt to abridge one of the most elemental prin

Beware !--
The bug is back
For those ot us fortunate enough to have escaped the
childhood killer and crippler of generations past, it may come as
quite a shock that state health authorities warn we are ripe
again for a polio epidemic in Oregon.
With availability of the Sabm oral vaccine and the earlier Salk
vaccine, polio has disappeared completely from the state since
1965. according to state public health officer. Dr Edward Press.
But we have grown complacent, a very human problem for
which no vaccine exists This complacency now means that halt
Of all the young children in the state ae unprotected against the
polio virus.
When the easily taken Sabm "sugar cubes' first appeared,
there was a community wide (really nationwide) program of
immunization with ticket books sold entitling buyers to the full
series of innoculations at a given time in a central place.
It would be a considerable blessing for the youngsters of our
community if a group could organize another community wide
drive to innoculate those susceptible to the crippling virus
before a summer time epidemic brings tragedy back to many
families. -. Canby Herald
Pass Another Law
Americans have a ready solution for every problem which
confronts us: pass another law. We heap law upon law, and
each new statute seems to defy it or find a way of evading
it. We spend more money to pass laws, and more money
to break the laws we pass, than any nation in the world.
And we think that the only way to correct all this is to
pass another law. The something that makes laws work in
definitely missing. We have become so involved in legality
that morality is forgotten. And the result is more and more
laws in a vain effort to keep us from being inhuman to each
other. This is not progress.

Itcar Jtld:i Jones:
I, herewith, submit my
resignation eflective Si pt. 15
as Counselor of Morrow
Countv Juvenile Court.
The Pacific School of Re
ligion, Herkeloy. Ca.,
his accepted my application
to lie a student study inu for
a M ister of Divinity D uree.
My goal is lo become an
Ordained Minister of tln Uni
ted M -thodist Church. Keg
istr.it ion Is during the week
of September 25th; classes
begin October 2nd.
While I am eager to be
gin preparation for my
new vocation, I leave my
present position with mixed
emotion. The Department has
develoed a significance in
the county. The people have
begun to understand that stu
dent membership on the Ju
venile Advisory Committee
is an opportunity for respon
sible, productive, and valid
participation In county af
iairs. The memlwrsof the Ad
visory Committee have been
active and helpful.
About 35 different families
were involved in the Family
Life Education Series. One
third of the families returned
an opinion survey to the Ju
venile office. They registered
a 10-1 desire in tivor of
having other family life pro
grams in the future. Half
or more of the responses in
dicated that the series pro
vided "the kind of experience
I can apply to my own sit
uation;" "tliat it served
its purpose;" "and helped
me personally." Other par
ents have indicated that they
feel a program stressing
responsible parenthood would
be appropriate for junior and
senior age young people in
the county. Some of the stu
dents have forthrightly re
quested such a program.
A Morrow County Youth
Council has been organized.
One of our local youth has
been elected to the office of
Regional Vice President and
as such is a member of the
row County School District
greatly improved last year,
reported C.R. Ham, auditor,
who completed his work this
week.
Rumors now floating thr
ough the northwest that the
completed and partly comple
ted CCC Erosion Camps are
to be abandoned are false,
according to a statement
made today by W.A. Rockie,
regional director of the Pa
louse Project of the Soil Con
servation Service. ,
Someone hauled away 35
sacks of wheat from one ol
Orville Cutsforth'sfieldslast
Wednesday. The wheat which
was taken was of a new var
iety and Mr. Cutsforth is the
only farmer in the county to
have tliat type of wheat.

as Fred Martin and crew of

wheat field after lunch, wheat
stubble collected under the
pickup and started a fire in
the field. Other farmers stop
ped their harvest, and helped
control the fire after about
two hours. It burned ap
proximately 130 acres.
