Northvest Democrats Look To Gulliver
Of Senate for Help on River Projects
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Washington The man to
whom Northwest Democrats
are looking for help in get
ting more money for John
Day dam and other river pro-
jects this year
is known as

Last fall Ellender tramped
alone into Siberia to see what
the Russians were up to on
their great rivers, and he re
turned with 10,000 feet of
film on Soviet dam building
to support his conclusion that
the U. S. isn't doing enough
to match the Russians in this
field. It was through Ellen
der's backing that $1,000,000
was added to last year's bud
get to start John Day dam, a
$310,000,000 undertaking.
Fairly regularly, Ellender
plays handball in the Senate
gym with Sen. Richard L.
Neuberger (D-Ore.). The wise
crack going the rounds now
is:
"If Dick doesn't get John
Day dam speeded up he won't
dare win a game of handball
for over 100 years."
Rep. Charles O. Porter (D
Ore.), had the feeling he was
being followed all last week,
and for a man who has been
HORNBROOK
Women's Society Meets
By MRS. H. H. CHAPMAN
Hornbrook The Women's
Society of the Methodist
church met Thursday at the
home of Mrs. T. D. Killings
worth. Devotions were led by
the hostess. In the absence of
the president, Mrs. Ernest
Adams, the meeting was con
ducted by Mrs. Harry Chap
man. Members present were Mrs.
L. C. Walsh, Mrs. Henley
Clawson, Mrs. Clara Howard,
Mrs. George Brautlacht, Mrs.
Cecil Bowman, Mrs. Bertha
Bradley, Mrs. Ardon Burns,
Mrs. S. D. Haworth, Mrs.
Minnie Bloomingcamp, the
Rev. and Mrs. Ted Hargreaves
and daughter Denise.
Two visitors also attended
the meeting, Mrs. George
Smith and Mrs. Artie Cly
burn, both of whom became
members. Final plans were
made for the annual Valen
tine Silver Tea to be given
Feb. 13 at the church. It was
requested that all who have
clothing to be donated to the
Church World Service pro
gram have the clothing at
the church on or before Feb.
27, at which time it will be
boxed and sent to the World
Service headquarters for ship
ment overseas. At the close
of the meeting, Mrs. Clawson
showed color movies of pre
vious meetings and events of
the Women's Society.
Because of the heavy rain
and snow and the subsequent
hazardous condition of High
way 99 last Thursday, none
of the Grange members from
here was able to attend the
benefit card party at the
Greenhorn Grange hall south
of Yreka. Consequently, at
the regular meeting of Horn
brook Grange on Friday, a
collection was taken up and
sent to Gazelle Grange, for
whose benefit the party had
been scheduled. The money
will be applied to the fund
they are raising to replace
their hall which recently
burned.
Mrs. Laura Swinnerton
gave a dinner party at her
home Wednesday honoring
her daughter, Mrs. Dave Hol
land, on her birthday. Other
guests were Dave Holland and
Mrs. Bertha Bradley. Later
in the evening, they were
joined by the Holland's son,
Bill who arrived home from
Chico, Calif., to spend a
week's mid - term vacation
from Chico State college.
On Tuesday, Mrs. Swinner
ton entertained the Contract
Bridge club at Mrs. Holland's
home. Others playing were
Mrs. Fred Mills, Mrs. Lester
Nye, Mrs. Duane Hamner,
Mrs." Bertha Bradley, Mrs.
Henley Clawson and Mrs.
John Griffin, the latter two

bers who were unable to be
present. Mrs. Mills held high
score, and Mrs. Nye, second.
Mrs. Milo Dilley and daugh
ter, Betty, of Reno, Nev., were
in town last week on a trip
to combining business and
pleasure. While here, they
visited at the Ardon Burns
and Frank Bear homes, and
Betty visited two days at the
Hornbrook grammar school
with her former classmates
here.
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Bradley
and son of Napa, Calif., and
his sister, Mrs. Zelda De Mar
tino and daughter, Colleen,
of Oakland, Calif., were week
end visitors at Mrs. Bertha
Bradley's.
A telephone call Sunday
morning to Mr. and Mrs. L.
E. Jeter from their son, Bill,
at Ft. Ord, Calif., advised
them he was leaving by plane
out of San Francisco that
night for his new assignment
at Ft. Monmouth, N. J., where
he will be in the U.S. Army
Signal school.
Overnight guests at the L.
E. Jeter home last Monday
were her brother and sister-in-law,
Mr. and Mrs. James
Fowler. They were en route
to visit relatives of Mrs. Fow
ler's at Seattle, Wash., from
where they will begin their
journey home to Ft. Scott,
Kan.

guests at the Ed Smith home,
besides their son, Bob, of
Roseburg, Ore., their daugh
ter, Dorothy, and their other
son and daughter-in-law, Dr.
and Mrs. Edward M. Smith
and son of Orland, Calif.,
were Mrs. Dora W. Marlahan,
Mr. and Mrs. Burnell Burton
and son, Ernest, Mike Marla
han, all of Ft. Jones and Dr.
and Mrs. George Kleaver of
Yreka.
Word has been received by
his parents here that A2C
Frank Fick is on a 90-day as
signment at Wheelus Air Base
in Tripoli from his home base
at Wethersfield, England.
Frank is with the 55th fight
er bomber squadron.
The next in the series of
card parties being given by
the Hornbrook Grange is
warned by local police to car
ry a gun for protection, this
is nothing to laugh off.
His feelings were right, for
a reporter-photographer team
from Life Magazine tailed him j
for six days, shooting up some
750 films for a spread on "the
congressman for Latin Am
erica." How many of Porter's Ore
gon constituents will see it
remains to be seen, for it is j
scheduled to appear in Life's 1

Not that reprints probably
won't find their way into the
hands of Oregon voters on the
sound theory that a slew of
pictures of their congressmen
is good for votes whatever
the language that explains
them.

Of Our Tremendous Store-wide
Rep. Walter Norblad (R-
Ore.), is running so hard for i
reelection this year he has j
pressed his wife into work, j
Every night when Norblad '
comes home from the office, j
he has an armload of paper
work the day's returns
from a questionnaire he has
been mailing to 85,000 resi
dents of northwest Oregon.
Mrs. Norblad's job is to
help tabulate the answers
Oregonians have given to the
list of questions of how they
feel about everything from
foreign aid to taxes.
Those confounded robots in
the bowels of the Senate of-j
fice building have once more j
confounded Oregonians who
receive Sen. Wayne Morse's ;
newsletter. j
Several months ago.the ma
chines that stuff envelopes got
fouled up and stuffed Morse's
envelopes with a letter of
congratulations to high school
graduates from Sen. Lyndon
Johnson (D-Tex.). More re
cently, they mixed up the big
stacks of newsletters that go
through the folding room
every week and sent some of
Sen. Pat McNamara's letters
to those on the Oregon sena
tor's list.
The latter incident should
aid in giving Oregonians a
"liberal" education, since Mc
Namara is of the same wing
of the party as is Morse. But
if those robots ever slip in
some of the material of Sen.
Harry Byrd or Sen. James
Eastland, automation will be
doomed.
