Letters to the Editor
Pro-growth attitude ironic
To the Editor:
I found it ironic to see an
article in your January 1 issue
concerning growth in Morrow
County. Wayne Schwandt,
manager of the Port of
Morrow, stated growth in the
area has not been detrimental
and people should fight a
no-growth attitude in this
state.
Having spent much time in
recent years hunting areas
in and around Morrow County,
I would beg to differ with
Schwandt 's assessment. De
velopment of an industrial
sight just east of Boardman,
rivaled any instance of poor
land use panning I have ever
witnessed in the Willamette
Valley.
An area abounding in open
land, a mecca to autumn
flights of waterfowl, upland
game birds, short-eared owls,
mule deer and numerous other
shorebirds was chosen to

Frank Howell
Frank Howell, 93, a resident
of Canyon Creek Guest Home,
John Day, since 1978, died
there Saturday, January 3.
. He was born in Oregon City
July 29. 1887, near Molalla,
Oregon, to Adeline Northrup
Howell and Stanford Howell.
Frank's mother crossed the

Newspaper of th

construct potato processing
plants and eventually apart
ment buildings. In order to
accomplish this ill-conceived
project, a number of water
filled gravel pits, a marsh
area and groves of Russian
olive were leveled. In the
resulting boom of construction
which followed, a valuable
wildlife habitat was lost for
ever. I am not trying to advocate
a no-growth attitude for Mor
row County, or any other
county in Oregon. What I am
advocating and what the
people of this state should be
advocating is planned growth,
with the wisest possible use of
all lands. Schwandt says
citizens should be vigilant of
no-growth proponents. I say
citizens should be vigilant of
anyone threatening Oregon's
unparalleled livability.
Yours for Oregon
Bill Rhoades
Madras, Oregon
made her home in a log cabin
near the present city of
Portland. After her marriage
to Stanford Howell, twelve
children were born, nine boys
Tom, Bill, Hank, John, Joe,
Pad, Louis, Ed and Frank, the
youngest; and three girls
-Tilda, Hetti and Ida.
The family moved from
Oregon City to the Hardman
area where Frank grew up on
McKinny Creek. His father
died when Frank was about
four years old, leaving the
mother to raise the large
family.
After Frank grew older he
took care of his mother and
helped her. He worked on a
farm near lone, sheared
sheep, cut wood and hauled
freight, mostly grain, to
Heppner, where he stayed all
night at the livery stable. On
the return trip, freight was
brought into Hardman. Frank
helped clean up Heppner after
the disastrous flood of 1903. He
was a true woodsman and
old-fashioned country gentle
man. On June 26, 1910, Frank and
Mable McDaniel of Hardman
were united in marriage. To
this union were born four
boys, Rho Stanford, "Buster,"
Clifford Elmer, Everett Cres
ton and Marvin Delmer.
Frank and Mable raised
their family in Burton Valley
and Hardman, where the boys
received their education.
In 1935, the family moved to
a ranch on Wall Creek near
Monument where they resided
for many years.
After retiring, Frank and
Mable made their home in
Monument until they were
forced by ill health to move to
Spray for two years. In 1978,
they moved again to Canyon
Creek Guest Home in John
Day where they celebrated
their 70th wedding annivers
ary on June 26, 1980.
Funeral services were held
at the Monument Community
Church on Jan. 7, at 1 p.m.
with the Rev. Milo Franke of
John Day officiating. Special
music was presented by the
Wayne Leathers family.
Pall bearers were his five
grandsons, Sam, William, and
Paddy Howell, all of Monu
ment, and Frankie Rho and
Jackie Lee Howell of Spray;
and a nephew, Ivan McDaniel
of Long Creek.
