SIXTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, April 14, 1957 Briefs From the Legislature Salem (U.B The House passed and sent to the Senate House Bill 13 appropriating $1, 131,525 from the General fund to administer the State Depart ment of Agriculture for the coming biennium. Also passing with a favorable recommendation from the Joint Ways and Means committee was House Bill 20 limiting expenses of the State Civil Service com mission to 5503,640 and House Bill 100 limiting expenses of the Unemployment Compensation commission to $6,432,433, "Wonderland' Approved House Bill 408 authorizing the The Family Council Editor" note: Th Family Council consists ot m Judje, a psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers. Each article is a summary ot an actual report. The Family Council does not clve advice; It merely reports on problems that hav been dealt with by responsible afenetes and counselors. Dolores P. I want to warn wind of the way Dolores feels mv brother about his fiance. John P. I should do it, man-to-man. Dolores p. I am a happily married woman and I am very eager to see my bachelor brother married. He has gone with many girls and every no wand then seems on the verge of taking the plunge, but then shies off. A few months ago he intro duced me to one of his girl friends and asked me what I thought of her. I said that from the one meeting all I could say was thai I thought she was very attractive and had a nice per sonality. This seemed to give him a lot of new enthusiasm for her and shortly afterward they became engaged. Since then I've come to know the girl quite well and I don't like her at all. I think she is dom ineering and has a nasty dispo sition. I don't 'think my brother or any other man could be happy with her. I feel partially respon sible for my brother's getting in volved with her and I think I ought to tell him how I now feel about the whole thing. My hus band says it would be a terrible mistake. John P. Dolores neglects to mention that her brother is 32 and head-over-heels in love. They are planning to marry in a few months. Dolores will only antag onize her brother ff she gives him belated advice about this girl. I fully agree with Delores about the girl. She's really a mean one and if she ever gets Homestead Farms Offered in Drawing Salem War veterans are giv en priority in a current offering of 145 homestead farm units in the Minidoka reclamation proj ect in scaithern Idaho, Vere A. McCarto, service division man ager of the Oregon department of veters' affairs, has reported. Veterans' applications must be filed b dune 27 with the bureau of reclamation, Rupert, Idaho, to receive priority. Application forms are available in Oregon from county veterans' service 'officers or the department of veterans' affairs, state finance building, Salem, and state office building, Portland. While the farm units go with out cost to winners in the public drawing scheduled later, success ful applicants must possess as sets worth $4,500 in excess of liabilities, and must have had two years of farming experi ence. Vettrans" preference goe to persons who served 90 days or more on active service between Sept. 16, 1940, and Jan. 31, 1935. The farm units, located about 40 miles east of Twin Falls in Minidoka and Jerome counties, Idaho, are suited for producti n of a wide variety of crops under irrigation, including potatoes, sugar beets, beans, peas, Alfalfa, clover and pastures, bean seed, clover and alfalfa seed, wheat, oats and barley. All of the land is undeveloped and is covered with native grasses and sagebrush. about her, there will be plenty of trouble. A better idea would be for me to have a man-to-man talk with Dolores' brother. I can put him wise to a lot of things that a man in love sometimes over looks. If I do it, Delores' brother might take it a little more ser iously or he might laugh it off. In either case, it is not likely to make so much bad feeling. I told Dolores she never should have committed herself one way or the other about any of her brother's girl friends. Now she sees that I was right about that. She feels awful about being Re sponsible for this mess. The Council It is hard -to see why John, who has perfectly reasonable objections to his wife's interference in this af fair, thinks those objections will disappear if the talk is "man-toman." The facts that the brother is of a mature age and "head-over-heels in love" will not dis appear, any more than will the fact that the advice is "belated." This couple has made marriage plans and it will take real difi culties between them to break those plans. Interference from John will antagonize the brother just as much as advice from De- ! lores. i It hasn't apparently occurred to either Dolores or John that they can be wrong about the girl. It is possible to see personality in many different ways. The very things about this girl that they term "nasty" may be the ones Dolores brother finds en chanting and he may see many qualities they are unaware of. Love is not always completely blind. Indifference or dislike can serve as blinkers too. Dolores is wrong to feel "par tially responsible" for her broth er's love for this girl. Her in itially favorable impression may have pleased her brother at the moment, but it is most unlikely to have been the spark that set things in motion. She and John should keep hands off. (Copyright 1957, General Features Corp.) words "scenic wonderland" to appear on Oregon license plates passed with only one negative vote. The bill eliminated provi sions to reflectorize the plates at a cost of some $800,000. The House failed to grant Rep. Robert Kelmsen's tongue-in-cheek request that the motto on the plates be changed to "no sales tax." Installment payments of in come tax bills of $25 or less would be prohibited by House Bill 241 which also was consid ered favorably. Rep. Wayne Giesy, Monroe Republican, said the move would eliminate about 20,000 operations a year by the cdmmission. Salem (U.R) Senate Bill 61 prohibiting motorists from driv ing with parking lights only was passed unanimously. It was the first of a group of bills designed to make driving regulations uni form in Western states. Salem (U.R) Also passing the House was Senate bill 61 which would make out-of-state motor vehicle licenses good in Oregon until the time they ordin arily would have to be renewed in the other state. Salem (U.R) The House voted favorably on House Joint Resolution 13 which calls for a constitutional amendment to in crease legislator's pay from S600 tc $1,000 a year and gives them an expense account. The people would have to vote on the change in 1958. 5 Red Fir Slabwood Biggest- Loads in Town! 00 Per Load 12' DELIVERED Immediate Delivery Ph. 3-5878 or 2-5055 PHELPS FUEL CO. 1337 So.
