Oivro.i, as Second Claw Matter Capitalistic Breadbasket It now turns out that only the U.S. can produce the agricultural abundance that will give Soviet citizens the higher food production that Soviet leaders have promised. According to late reports, even U.S. help may fall short of staving off a shortage in Russian food supplies. It is said that the Soviet Union is suffering the worst farm crisis since 1963. The grain harvest is likely to fall 30 million tons short of planned production. This means less bread, less feed for livestock and less meat. Ironically, American agriculture is the epitome of capitalism. U.S.farmers are a working demonstration of the highest principles of the capitalistic society. They are independent, and they own their own homes and land. Their success hinges upon private initiative in the application of the latest agricultural techniques flowing from the halls of science, industry and chemical laboratories. All of these are attributes of a democratic society, where freedom of action and freedom of inquiry flourish to the maximum extent. This capitalistic system-the antithesis of communism-damned abroad and scorned at home by pseudo intellectuals has now become Lhe world's breadbasket. And the American farmer, the most capitalistic of all capitalists, must bear the brunt of the burden of feeding a good share of the world. REMEMBER THIS? ....REMINISCE! 55 YEARS AGO 1918 Mrs. C.W.Ranck has received a telegram from the war department announcing the fact that her son William Gosney was among the survivors from the ill-fated Tuscania, the large British ship loaded with American soldiers which was sunk by a German torpedo off the Irish coast last week. Preparations are being made for a big basketball game on the evening of Feb. 22, between the local high school team and a team composed of old players who will strive to come back at least for a night. Both teams are practicing hard and want to give the public a good exhibition on the evening of Washington's birthday. The proceeds from the game will be given tp; the Red Cross.Jtfns.iAaron Pjrterson of this city has received a letter from her son Henry who is now with the American Expeditionary Forces "Somewhere in France." Mr. Peterson writes that he is in good spriits and in good health. W.C.Bowling, proprietor of the Heppner Bakery has enlarged his business during the past week by adding home made candies to his stock in trade. 17 YEARS AGO 1936 The fiftieth anniversary of wedded life of Mr. and Mrs. ' L.W.Briggs - commenced Feb. 10, 1886, when they were married near this city, and featured by continuous residence in this vicinity -was appropriately celebrated Monday. Many friends accepted the invitation issued in the Gazette Times and joined in honoring the esteemed couple whose married history is interlocked with emanation of Heppner from a frontier town into the modern, progressive city of today. Snow was no deterrent to the annual Fathers-Sons banquet last night. In spite of eight inches of the beautiful which covered the ground, and a continuing fall, nearly 200 men folks, young and old, surrounded the festive board at the Church of Christ basement and enjoyed the delicious dinner served by ladies of the church. The most extensive gopher poisoning campaign ever put on in this county has just been completed through the cooperation with the Soil Conservation service and the U.S.D.A. Extension Service. Probably no county in Oregon has come so close to poisoning 100 percent of its creek bottom land, and certainly no county has ever done so much poisoning at a lower cost. It gave one a sort of feeling of superiority to gaze down upon snowbound trains in the Middle West while soaring comfortably and speedily along in an airplane, said J.G.Barratt, president Oregon Wool Growers association, who returned home Monday from a "flying trip" to Washington, D.C., to attend the wild life conservation congress. He saw four of six trains reported as snowbound in Iowa. Rotary plows were churning heavily in an attempt to extricate them. 1 YEAR AGO 1972 Pioneer Memorial Hospital waited and waited for the First Baby of 1972. On Valentine's Day, the First Baby arrived, a son for Mr. and Mrs. Warren Plocharsky. They were hoping for a boy. Approximately 40 guests honored Mr. and Mrs. Creston Robinson on their 25th wedding anniversary Sunday at their home. Elks of Heppner Lodge meet Saturday to observe the 1972 Annual Celebration and - this year - to note the 75th anniversary of the Lodge's institution here in Heppner. Mary M. McElligott, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Donald McElligott, has been named lone High School's Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow for 1972. She was chosen on the basis of her score in a written knowledge and attitude examination taken by senior girls on December 7, and will receive a specially designed award charm from General Mills, sponsor of the annual educational program. Additionally, she is now eligible for state and national honors. With Jack Sumner REPORT FROM SALEM This week the most significant legislation before the house was the Governor's tax plan. It passed with flying colors, 43 to 16, and will now be considered in the Senate Committee on Revenue. Ultimately, the tax plan will be voted on by the voters this spring. The tax plan will give good benefits to low and fixed income persons living in their homes by reduction in property taxes. This is an excellent feature. Overall, the net effect of the plan will be to increase taxes. There are features in the plan which I feel are not equitable and others which may create chaos in the next two years. If not then, they will in years thereafter. For these reasons I was one of the sixteen opposing the measure. You may be interested to note that the replies I received as a result of the coupon-type request in the newspapers were 6 to 1 against the tax plan. Later in the session, before you will have to vote on the plan, I will try to detail the tax plan so it may help you decide how to vote. The Rules Committee has recommended adoption of HJR 9 providing for a legislative session each even-numbered year to deal with fiscal matters; the bill was amended so that special sessions could be called only by the Governor, as is now the case. HJR 11 designating standing committees as interim committees was also reported out do-pass. In jeopardy is HJR 14 lowering the age qualification for legislators to eighteen. The Committee will take testimony February 21 on this resolution. GAZETTE-TIMES. Thursday. One February 22, 1973 The Wa.vt and Mean Committee has reported out four appropriations bills-all reduced from tio Governor's reeommen- The' Transportation Committee listened to favorable testimony on the proponed retesting and renewing of motor vehicle operators licenses. This requires mandatory testing each four years. The labor and Industrial Affairs Committee heard two important bills this week. The first deals with imposition of restrictions on the choice of a doctor for a workman drawing SAIF benefits. The second UIB 2209) sets up a procedure compensating victims of felonv crimes for medical expenses and loss of income. When possible, ihe Workmen's Compensation Board would require the convicted assailant to absorb at least a portion of the cost. Although the program would be funded at only $100,000 for the biennium, there was a feeling that the concept should be enacted this session. , , ... A Joint subcommittee of Labor, and Agriculture chaired by Representative Jack Sumner has been appointed to study all bills dealing with Workman's Compensation for agricultural workers. The goal is to rationalize the system and lower the rates. The target is to achieve a rate of $8.50 per hundred. It appears that a major overhaul of the system will eventually be necessary. The Environment Committee has been discussing bicycle path programs and has requested drafting of several bills relating to Cape Kiwanda. . The Ucal Government Committee is redrafting HB 2108 providing payments to localities for the fire protection afforded state buildings. A formula based on impact of state-owned property and tax effort for fire protection is being developed. The committee agreed to introduce a number of bills including, with four dissenting votes, one allowing cities to annex by ordinance when circumstances of crowding and marginal sewage systems exist. I have heard from and have had drop by, many folks from the district. I find this very helpful. Please continue. Address. Representative Jack Sumner, 18-K Capitol Bldg, Salem, Oregon 97310.

Feb. 19, the Honorable Rep resentative Howard Willits called me and said. S b 213, S B itieauuwuuu Improvements continue at Meadowood Springs Speech Camp. The maintenance build ing is completed; water and sewer systems are 95 percent completed; dining hall is nearly ready for the electrician and plumbers, multi-purpose build ing is almost ready for rental. Elks See At the Elks Winter Board meeting held last month in Portland, John Turbyne of Milton-Freewater, state chair man for the Physical Handi capped arranged a presentation from Meadowood. Therapy was demonstrated and explained incorporating closed circuit TV. Camper tuition has been raised from $400 to $475. The raise was based on the enlarged facilities, increased adminis tration and overhead costs, coupled with the fact that there had not been a tuition increase for several years. 201 and S B 214 will come up soon after the first of March. To the merciful humans who abhor the BRUTAL SADISTIC STEER TRIP JERK DRAG BUSTING I urge you to write your 'letter to Rep. Willijs requesting, that he read your letter at the committee meet ings to promote S B 213 to outlaw American's CRUELEST SPORT--the STEER BUST ing. Another important bill to support is S B 201 ! It will outlaw another blemish on Oregon, the COCK FIGHTING! S B 214 bill is for the purpose to set a fund to be used to take care of injured animals that are picked up on the highways. You might request that such a fund be set aside from your local County Revenue Sharing. (I did) H B 2167 has a clause to refund $100.00 to tax payers who have their animals neutered and spayed. Please won't you forget the greatest sin on earth "APATHY" and do your part to try to help this be a better world to live in by preventing un necessary animal agony? Your letters do count, you know. Love for animals is instinc tive in NORMAL HUMAN BEINGS, AND TO MISTREAT DUMB ANIMALS IS NOT ONLY UNCHRISTIAN IT IS INHUMAN. HUMANELY YOURS, Lois Winchester To the Editor: Leta Humphreys Thomas writes from her winter sojourn in Tucson, Ariz, saying she was rummaging through some of her souvenirs and ran onto a card from The Metropolitan Museum of Art which was a copy of a couple of Chinese cats (Ming Dynasty) and immedi ately thought of me. H'm What do you suppose her angle is? But she also tells me the nights are cold - the days quite hot and anjoccasional JO minute hailstorm early morn ings. According to her treatise she has lots of robins that are about to run out of food as her pyrocanthra berries are about gone. What about some bi-d seed? (I'll tell her). Leta loves to attend Antique shows and see the prices they tack on some of the old things "we used to throw away." Then to sort of "butter me up" (after the cat deal) she writes "And then I wanted to thank you for all the news I have been reading in the Heppner Gazette-Times. I'm sort of making some stationery these days - so I sent a card to my nephew and niece, Mr. and Mrs. Dave Hall showing u wee one climbing Into a tub. In writing to thank me Nancy says "Jodie is well and a very pretty baby with long dark hair, blue eves and with a dark complexion. Dave is student teaching in Madras and will graduate In June thus finishing his schooling. The Halls will continue to stay at Madras and will work on the ranch for her father Johnnie Richardson. They sound happy. She adds that they are taking Ihe Heppner paper. Josephine Mahoney Baker Terwilliger Plaza, Apt. 525 Portland 97201 8852 SE Ellis Street Portland, Oregon 97266 15 February 1973 Heppner Gazette Times Heppner, Oregon ATTENTION: Editor Dear Sir: Enclosed is my check in payment for the renewal of my subscription to the Heppner Gazette Times. I enjoy your paper each week and do not wish to miss any copies. Also enjoy the letters from Josephine Mahoney Baker and others who write of their lives on the farms and in the towns scattered about the county. I was born in lone and spent most of my early years there. My father was John H. Ritchie, son of Alexander Ritchie and his first wife, Adalaide Whitt. Alexander Ritchie and his second wife, Barbara Haburn were early homesteaders on land now known as the "Ritchie Quarter". Father was from a large family of four brothers and five sisters, all of whom lived at one time in or near lone. So there were many cousins living nearby. The only de scendants of Alexander Ritchie who now live in the area are Roy and Arthur Lindstrom grandsons of Fred Ritchie and the Ray Clayton Avers family of Echo and Heppner who are descendants of Samuel Ritchie." In the early 1890's my father, John Ritchie, went back to Lee County, Virginia where he had been born. There he met and married my mother, Lydia V. Ball. When my eldest brother, Lonnie Ritchie, was a year old the family came back to lone and never left. My parents lived on and operated farms in several localities. As we child ren attained school age father bought a home in lone and we lived in it until my parents passed away and the children had all left. Lonnie was the last one to live in the home. There were nine children in our immediate family. It was ever a struggle for our parents to maintain such a large family, though milk was only five cents a quart and eggs ten cents a dozen. All other provisions were in proportion. We children all attended school in lone and I was graduated from High School there in 1918. Only four of my family remain to recall the good times and the sorrows of the time spent in Morrow County. They are Wayland (Larry) Ritchie who is employed here in Portland, Irvin Ritchie who now , makes his home in Firestone, Colorado near Denver, Dona Ritchie Allstott who lives in Hermiston and myself. Grandfather and his second wife, Barbara Haburn, and my parents are all buried in Highview Cemetery. Also other family members rest there. Among them is our brother Everett Ritchie. He died in 1923 as a result of being gassed in France WW I. I distinctly remember the Hepner flood and a few of the bad fires there in Heppner. Also a couple of fires in lone that destroyed most of the business section. Although I have lived in Portland since 1942, Morrow County will always be "home" to me. It is a wonderful part of our state and there is always a desire to go back there if only for a brief visit. Sharing memories with the "old timers" who remain is deeply satisfy ing. Am fortunate to have my three sons and their families living near by here in Portland. Since I am now a widow and retired I find much pleasure in watching my several grand children growing up and start ing families of their own who are 3rd generation Oregonians. Sincerely, Edna Ritchie Wilcox (Mrs. Lynn F. Wilcox) January 29, 1973 Mr. Robert Elfstrom, Chairman Oregon Nuclear & Thermal Energy Council 4263 Commercial Street S.E. Salem. Oregon 97310 Dear Sir: Enclosed is a request for refusal of licensing of the Nuclear Electricity Plant by General Electric Company, at Carty Canyon near Boardman, Oregon. I have listed the following number of Items for my reasons for this request: 1. The Atomic Energy Com mission has not presented to the public a balance set of information concerning the radiation hazards in question, 2. The nuclear emergency systems are Important and hitve not been tested, they are to prepare the test for 1975. (Milton Shaw, Di rector AEC Div. of reactor written testimony, part three, page 1339, 1363-67 and 1374.) 3. Radiation in permissible doses, is not safe radiation exposure. Matter of fact, no amount of ionizing radiation is safe. 4. Many of the standards for so-called allowable doses of radiation to the public for atomic energy programs, such as nuclear electricity generation, were set before the new implications of human genetic diseases were appreciated. This fact alone requires a total re-evaluation of atomic energy programs, nuclear electricity among them. 5. New evidence from Japan, Great Britain and Nova Scotia reports radiation is a greater factor in deaths from cancer and leukemia than had been previously realized. 6. The Federal Radiation Council established not to exceed 0.17 rads per year average dose. Now if some reagions at 0.34 rads and in other reagions at 0 rads. two regions were equal in size the over all average would be 0.17 rads. 7. Drs. John W. Gofman and Arthur R. Tamplin in 1963, were assigned by the U.S.Atomic Energy Com mission to evaluate the hazards of atomic radia tion. This was completed in 1969 and the calculations were presented to the commission in October of 1969. The prediction was as follows.. .If the average exposure of the U.S. popu lation were to reach the allowable 0.17 rads per year average there would, in time, be an excess of 32,000 cases of fatal cancer plus leukemia per year and this would occur year after year. What happened here is that Chairman Hotifield of the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy of the U.S.Con gress, our protector, be came a promoter for AEC. 8. In 1970 there were two studies undertaken to de termine the permissible radiation does by the National Committee of Radiation Protection, Na tional Academy of Sciences and Biological Effects of Atomic Radiation which is the committee of NAS. NCRP membership: Total 64. About 10 are radiologists. About 14 were also members of the BEAR Committee. About 30 receive employ ment or research grants from the AEC, the De partment of Defense, Westinghouse, or General Electric (major manu facturers of nuclear reactors). NAS Radiation Committee membership: Total 20 - 7 are either employed by the AEC or have been receiving research money from the AEC. 8 are concurrently mem bers of the NCRP. 10 were also members of the BEAR Committee. This is not in the best interest of the people. There is an overlap in three categories. There is employment here that will profit from nuclear plants. It seems that our protectors are also the promoters of nuclear power. 9. This lake that would be made from the nuclear plant at Carty Canyon Nuclear site would be a haven for Malaria Mos quito which we do have. In warm water the cycle from egg to adult is completed in less than three weeks. Needless to say, there would be other gnats and flies. 10. The other radioactive elements; iodine-131, radioactive strontium-90, strontium-89, radioactive cesium-137 and radioactive krypton-85 would contam inate hay fields, grass land, wheat fields, gar dens, water supplies, rivers and livestock. These same elements are taken into out bodies from food and water which AEC makes no account for or from medical use. 11. These nuclear plants should never have been above ground even If they were safe. I firmly believe that Russia will make a sick and panicky nation out of us with these nuclear plants by surprise attack by Russian submarines most likely at night. They have plenty of submaries with multiple war head missiles ranging 2,100 and 3,000 miles. Suppose they sent 10 submarines on each side of the U.S., each shooting four missiles at different nuclear plants and they were 10 percent effective. This would mean four nuclear plants on each side of the United States. It is my hope that this letter of concern arouses the citizens of our country enough to become aware of the dangers that face us now and to begin taking Bteps to protect our lives. Sincerely, E.J.Akers lone, Oregon 97843 Delays Concern Coop Delivery of materials and supplies concern the local utility, Columbia Basin Elec tric. Wood products are the latest item to cause problems because of poor delivery. Sup pliers of standard wood pole crossarms are quoting one year before they can deliver an order. Certain classes und types of poles are almost impossible to obtain at present. Columbia Basin also has been experiencing lengthy delays on materials such as meters and transformers. Many types of transformers placed on order now, will not be delivered within a year. Manager David Harrison said it is nearly impossible to anticipate exact needs several months in the future. The current nature of slow delivery and service is forcing the Coop to purchase larger quantities and carry larger stock, which runs costs of operation up. Harrison also pointed to cost increases of 10 percent or more in the past three months on most common items purchased for line construction and main tenance where larger quantity purchases are not concerned. Line Improvements Continue Manager Dave Harrison re vealed that Columbia Basin improvements the past few months of the winter have gone along well. He said it had been a good winter for work of Colum bia Basin with few outages and good working weather for the erpws of the local utility. The Coop has used 16,000 feet of duplex and triplex service wire in just the past five months in running new services and changing out old services at members individual locations. In the Olex area alone, 63,360 feet of line wire has been run the past nine weeks to improve voltage and service. Bessie Alderman Services were held at Hills boro on Feb. 19 for Bessie Alderman (Mrs. Arthur Alder man) of Long Creek. Going down for the services were Mr. and Mrs. Archie Alderman and Mrs. Michael Bunch, all of Heppner and Duane Alderman of Pendleton. Archie Alderman and Arthur Alderman are brothers.
