M c In ty re — o — COUNTY BUREAU URGES FORT SETUP (Continued from Page 1) the initial savings are being made only on that volume of grain shipped by water, as the railroads still main tain their old rates on wheat from this area. As compared with the Pendleton rail rate, wheat is being moved by truck and water through the Pendleton Grain Growers plant at Umatilla with a saving of at least one cent per bushel going direct to the farmer. It can be safely esti mated that at least 750,000 bushels of wheat will move by this method each year from Umatilla county, ac counting for savings of approximate ly 97,500 per year to our producers. The program for 1941 will in clude the movement both in and out of general commodities such as wool, canned goods, potatoes, flour, cement, shingles, steel, automobiles, salt, sug- j ar, groceries and any other comniodi-1 ty that lends itself to barge and truck transportation. The Shaver Forwarding company is now con structing a dock at Umatilla to car ry out this program. Proposed tar COUNTY FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER: iffs on the above commodities will show a net saving to shippers from 40 cents to 80 cents per ton. The Umatilla County Farm Bu reau is certain that the establishment of a port district will be a distinct and constructive aid to the growth of this new transportation. It is not necessary for the port district to spend a lot of money, but the dis trict is needed to give every possible aid it can to encourage private capi tal to continue this development. Ac cording to Wm. Kupers, president of the Farm Bureau, "We are going to recommend appointment of port com missioners who are large tax payers, who are conservative men, and who will be committed to a policy of not spending over one mill tax the first year. After the first year the port budget would be limited to not over 6 per cent increase, and this six per cent clause protects the tax payers in future years automatically. Now that we are about to realize the great hope that the Columbia river would some day be to us an era of cheap transportation, it is only right that we do everything in our power to hasten this development along. Es tablishment of a port district is a most important step forward.” FOOD STAMP PLAN MASS MEETING TO BE THURSDAY NIGHT (Continued from page 1) produced in Oregon, the extension of the plan to this area is viewed as a great boost to state farmers. At the county committee meeting yesterday a complete merchandising campaign was approved. Designed to assist food stamp customers in pur chasing foods at local stores, the cam paign and essential display material will be presented at the mass meet ing.

B A man who has proved him self for Um atilla County and its people. If re-elected, he w ill contin ue the duties of the office as in the past. R. E. Goad, the present sheriff, has collected approximately seven and one-half millions of dollars in taxes in the past eight years. One of his campaign promises eight years ago and again four years later was 24-hour ser vice, which has been maintained religiously. He has numerous letters of commendation from attorneys of Oregon on his promptness and efficiency in handling legal service. Eight years ago and again four years ago he was elected on a platform of economy in office, and he has made good this promise. He has saved the taxpayers of Umatilla County thous ands of dollars, and we feel that the voters should take this into consideration and go to the polls on November 5th and vote for R. E.
