Mrs. Alice Virginia Hull Welch, on her wsy to Portland to view the O. A. Frigate Constitution, on which her great, great grandfather, was first csptaln. Mr. Hull, who of course called the same first captain grandfather, did not go to Portland to welcome the fa mous war frigate on Its western tour, having viewed It Just five years ago In Boston Harbor.

I didn't know my sister was go ing until this afternoon," he respond ed when asked why he hadn't Joined the exodus from Medford. "I'm glad to have her see It, though I've traveled a lot myself," he sdded with a jaunty awing of his cane, which defied the years, the little brown button on his coat count def initely as his. For Polk Hull, like his great, great grandfather, has served hi country well. He Is ft veteran of the Civil war and a member of the Grand Army of the Republic.

DETERMINED TO HELP GROWERS w 1 (Continued from Page One) FRESNO, Cal. (UP) Trom now on, Patrolman O. M. Kemble probab ly will carry a shotgun in hla radio police oar. He was fined $26 by Po lice Chief Frank Truax for falling to have the weapon In the cruiser one night when a burglar escsped his re volver snot. proposed power developments on the Columbia river. Before hla departure he released the following public statement to the people of Southern Oregon: "During my administration as gov ernor, I have had two major objec tives cheap water power and a low tax levy both vitally essential to the prosperity of the atate of Ore gon and Its people. "Oregon needs cheap water power In order to attract manufacturing plants, which. In turn, mean new wealth and added payrolls. "Oregon needs a low tax levy in order to attract capital, which. In turn, means the development of the state's manifold resources, the set tlement of it lands and added pop ulation. 'The recent announcement from Washington that President Rooaerelt Is favorable to the construction of power dam In the great Columbia river la exceedingly gratifying news so far as the promise of cheap water power la concerned particularly grat ifying to me, personally, because it marks the crowning achievement of the water power policy of my life long friend, the late Senator George W. Joseph, a cause which I have espoused during my administration with all the power at my command "The Columbia Is the greatest power resource In America. In this great river there Is enough potential cheap power to grind all the grain, spin all the wool, turn the wheels of all the Industries. electrify the transportation systems and provide domestic light and heat for the entire Columbia basin an empire In Itself. "The development of this cheap power would mean that Oregon would be placed In a position to compete with every section of America for Industries, Including the Pacific Southwest, where the Boulder dam In the Colorado river Is now In the process of construction. Help Fruit Grower The development of this power would mean the Industrialization of our commonwealth. Increased ship ping and commerce, and markets for our agricultural, fruit, livestock and dairy products. In brief. It would mean that Oregon would keep pace with the Industrial march of the nation, and Its cities become prosperous business and manufacturing centers. "Moreover, the development of the proposed project would constitute the initial atep in the canalization of the Columbia to the mouth of the Snake river a distance of approxl mately 360 miles. Once canalized, this river would come within the purview of the Inland water power transportation act, under which barge transportation could be made avail able, which would afford cheap water transportation to the great Colum bia's basin country. Low CoHt to Consumer 'In my opinion, the state and Its municipalities ahould be given preference on the power to be de veloped and, where sold to private power companies, the power should be disposed of under stipulations and regulations which would Insure Industry and the consumer of light and heat electrical energy at a min imum coat. "In addition to relieving our prop erty taxpayers from the Heavy tax burden they have been carrying. low tax levy Is essential In order to attract capital to engage In busi ness, develop our resources, -and in duce settlers to locate on our lands. When I assumed office, BO odd millions were collected annually In Oregon on real property, of which some 48 odd millions represented lo cal taxes levied by the state's 3,763 local tax-raising bodies. . "In other words, nearly BO per cent of the entire property tax load was made up of local levies. "In add HI on, the state had the second greatest per capita bonded and warrant Indebtedness In the United States. "Although our state government Is operating on a budget which Is lesa bV well over 13.000.000 than the (authorised appropriation for the' pre ceding Dienniura, there is every in dication that we will keep within the budzet. "The appropriations approved by me as governor m the budget for the 1933-1934 blennlum totaled $8. 339.616. as as-alnst authorize innro. prlatlons aggregating $16,337,672 for cne lyai-jy-ja niennlal period, mak Ing a reduction of 9.688,011, or ap proximately 40 per cent. "But. in spite of this slash and anarp increases in commodity prices, our it state institution, in & re port submitted to me Just prior to my departure, have achieved a sav lng of approximately ass.onn Mr th first six months of this blennlum. "This saving la largely due to the raci uiai we anticipated rising mar ket prices on commodities by pur chasing SUDDlles In advance nr on. terlng into contracts In advance for tneir aeiivery. "Although complete data are not yet available for all tt rt.n.rt. ments, a majority have reported and in every case it Is disclosed that they are operatlne within th amount of the pro-rated appropria tion for the six months period. Wipe Out Deficit 'Consequently the stat . t7rtvm. ment will have ample funds to carry on atate affairs, barring, of cdurse. unforseen emergencies. "As everyone connected with tntj affairs knows, the state has bad a deficit which was created many years ago, when the atate was In Its bey day of prosperity. "One of the , main objectives of my administration has been to wipe oui mis aeucit, and, unless unfor seen conditions arise, I am hopeful of bolng successful before my term of office comes to a close. . "In conclusion, I might add that all of our state Institutions are In excellent condition and our state de partments are functioning efficiently."

Oregon will lead the parade of states back to prosperity, because our leading industries help to supply the world's basic needs food, shelter and clothing. Everyone must have what Oregon has to soil. Restored buying power will insure profitable markets for our vast production of lumber, food stuffs, livestock and wool. Never, in our opinion, did confidence in Oregon hold greater promise of reward. The First National Bank "A DEPARTMENTIZED BANK" r III pi r Last week we told you how the 8-cyllnder motor made its entry Into the low-price field. But an "8" Is not the whole story. There are two varieties of the . "8". ' We have ohosen the V-8 a motor with two banks of cylinders set at angle opposite eaoh other. Instead of all eight oylinders in a line. ' There are good reasons for this. ' When we take 8 cylinders and set them four on a side, the length of the motor is reduoed about half; it becomes a sturdy and compact power plant. The V-8 motor is 4 cylinders long; if the cylinders were set in line the motor would be 8 cylinders long. This would sacrifice compaotness. One simple advantage of the V-type is that it gives more room in the body of your car. In the medium-size oar that is built for economical operation this is Important. . And it aocounts for the generous interior body room of the new Ford V-8. Another advantage concerns the motor itself. The V-8 type of motor, with its two short banks of cylinders, outs In half the distance which the gas mixture must travel to the end cylinders. This gives a more uniform distribution to each cylinder and makes a smoother running motor. Also, two water pumps and two streams of water cool the cylinders Instead of one stream. This means more uniform cooling. Other points of advantage I reserve for another letter. To mention one: When we seemed to be slow in Introducing the new Ford V-8 the delay was caused by our doing a very important thing in the interest of strength, long service and efficienpy. We were perfecting the V-8 cylinder block as a one-piece casting. As a result our cylinder block is not made of two or three castings bolted together. It is one compact Vnole, which permanently keeps the operating parts in perfect alignment. We cannot expect the general reader to appreciate the difficulties we had to overcome before this could be done. But if you ever have a chance to see our cylinder block casting before it goes into an engine, you will marvel that it could be done at all. We are the only manufacturers now doing it this more expensive way. Our new car is making its way so rapidly, on its own merits, that it . is worth knowing some of the reasons for its success.
