PuillSRitU'ry-sJWATIOI Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Parry Next Wednesday, Spring offi cially starts, and will probably be the worst day of Winter, a a The esteemed The Dalles Chronicle, Is editorially amazed at the number of mechanical messes, encountered on the high ways these days. Further bewil derment is expressed at the abil ity of the venerable vehicles to stay in one piece, i and, not fly apart at the next bump. How thev Bet the Jasoline to gad on, Is another mystery, but not dis cussed. It all recalls, the golden days, when the driver of a spring model, felt no-account, and downright shiftless, U passed on a mountain curve, In late July, by next year's super-offering. '.. a a LAST LAUGH ITEM .-' (The Dalles Chronicle) "Mr. Parrot la over from Goldendale. He Is trying to be a father to a flying machine, and we hope that like the great state of uregon it win be "volat alls proprlls." Mr. Parrot Is confident that his machine will ny and nas prom-: ised us a cabin passage to 'Goldendale and return as soon as he gets his machine perfect- . ed. Someone has said that the great trouble with flying ma- : defective flew, and that seems to be the size of it." (50 Yrs. ago Col.) a a a (The brevity of this col. to day, is due to the nllot thereof losing its specks.) IN STABBING CASE , Charges against Leon Edward Champlin, 62, of 242 South Grape street, were dismissed by District Attorney George Nell son; his attorney. George Cod ding, said today. Champlin was charged with stabbing Pvt. Stan ley H. Sanchez, SCU, Camp White, on Ross Lane last Oct. 6. Nellson dismissed the charges for lack; of evidence, Codding saia. According to Champlin, he had picked Sanchez and a companion up and driven out Ross Lane, When Champlin stopped the car, Sanchez ordered him to turn over his car and money and struck Champlin when he refused to do so. To defend himself from the beating being administered by Sanchez, Champlin took a knife from his pocket and cut the sol dler on the arm. Sanchez was then driven to a local hospital by Champlin, who gave himself up to city police but was released on his own recognizance. Champlin was em ployed as a fireman at Medford airport and has been in civil service for 23 years. Sanchez was court-martialed for the attempted holdup and was given a dishonorable dis charge from the army, Codding said. 8 at. Home Sgt. Charles Allen is home in Medford on a 30-day furlough after serving for over a year In the European war theater. He Is with his wife, Patricia Allen, and baby, at Car gill Court.

Bengtson of Jack son county, in a letter to the Mail Tribune today said he Is giving his support to House Joint Resolution 10, and Senate Joint Resolutions 10 anr 18. HJR 10 provides for a Joint interim committee consisting of two members of the senate and three members of the house for the purpose of investigating and studying the advisability of es tablishing institutions for the care, examination, specialized study and treatment of delin quent, under-privileged and mal adjusted children and generally to investigate child delinquency and rehabilitation of delinquent children. The committee Is empowered to hold public hearings and to make such surveys and investi gations as are deemed necessary and make a full report of its findings at the next legislative assembly. SJR 10 provides that a legis lative committee of two sena tors and three representatives be created to investigate the scale of salaries paid public employes of the state of Oregon with par ticular reference to salaries paid employes in the lower wage bracket. The committee is to compare salaries to those paid Ir private industry and make a full report to the legislative as sembly. The committee is to make recommendations as to the best method of adjusting the sal aries paid public employes so that these employes may be kept In public service under present costs of living. SJR 18 resolves that the state of Oregon and all its political subdivisions aid in the develop ment of coal resources In the state and that preference be giv en to its use in all public build' ings equipped with heating or steam producing facilities wher ever possible. Rep. Bengtson wrote that this resolution might possibly have some effect in pro moting development of the coal deposit on Roxy Ann mountain near Medford. though he con sidered the proposed legislation more in the light of a "gesture."
