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.

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.

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

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

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

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.
