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.”

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.
With the inauguration of the Food
Stamp Plan the direct distribution of
the surplus foods through commodity
depots and from trucks will be dis­
continued in the county.
Families receiving public assist­
ance in one form or another will, af­
ter November 1, select surplus foods
from mtheir grocer’s chelves and pre­
sent blue surplus Food tamps in pay­
ment. Orange colored Food Stamps
which are purchased by the family
head can be used to buy at local
stores any and all foods for human
consumption.
Stamps are sold in small books,

R. E. Goad, the present sheriff, has collected

One of his campaign promises eight years

Eight years ago and again four years ago he
