Some last minute interest jvill no doubt build up in the ;ime remaining, but generally Its been a slow campaign. And statehouse observers ire pretty much at a loss to explain why. With six Repub licans and three Democrats in &he race for gubernatorial Dominations there should be sparks flying. Some Sparks Fly There have been some minor recent brushes: . . . When Lew Wallace's campaign manager charged it was unfair for county chair men to meet in the governor's g 0 office and Gov. Robert D. Holmes replied they would meet in Salem again but not in his office. . . . Wh(Sl Mark Hatfield and Warren Gill, both Republi can prospects for governor, tangled over the sales tax which Gill advocates but which Hatfield feis is no answer 0 to the state's tax needs. . . . When Phil Hitchcok charged U.S. Rep. Waller Nor blad was responsible for anonymous mailings in Marion county and Norblad replied he was unaware of the law in the matter and gave instruc tions for it not to happen again.

Department store sales for March were up nationally over February to 131 per cent of the 1947-4 average. The index for February was 124, a particularly bad month. The figure for March a year ago was 137. The principal areas of im provement i n department store sales were those where unusually bad weather in February joined with eco nomic factors to produce a bad month at the cash regis ters. March wholesale trade moved upward but remained well below March of last year. Sales of merchant wholesalers for the first quarter of this year gave a clearer picture of the recession. First quarter wholesale transactions this year amount ed to $26 billion 10 per cent under the first quarter of 1957. The big drop was in dur- Rev. Jones Plans to Attend Conference The Rev. Richard M. Jones will be one of 50 pastors of all denominations attending a workshop sponsored by the Oregon state board of health, the Mental Health association and the Oregon Council of Churches at Gearhart, May 5-8. The conference, "The Cler gyman and Mental Health," will feature as its speaker Chaplain Ernest E. Bruder, chaplain, services branch, St. Elizabeth's hospital, Washing ton, D.

Non-durables' decreased only 2 per cent in the same period. Durable goods inventories showed little change in March but were 3 per cent below a year ago. ' The Federal Reserve Sys tem reported a sizable drop in outstanding consumer in stallment credit in March down $180 million from Feb ruary, taking into account sea sonal influences. Auto Loans Decline "Nearly all" the March de cline in consumer installment credit was in automobile loans, the Federal Reserve re port said. Non-installment credit in cluding single-payment loans and charge accounts dropped $66 million from February to March. Personal loans went -up $22 million for the same period. Along with these indicators the Treasury also announced that income tax refunds on 1957 taxes from Jan. 1 to April 24 totaled $2,452,000, 000, or 35 per cent more than the dollar amount for the same period in 1957. publican ide, nd hey ire likely to shrug thei shoul dei, mutter few conjecture and wind np just looting mal. Gill, the veteran tate eci- ator, has probably been ont of the more interesting ctndi dates chiefly for blasts against fellow Republicans with which he started his campaign and his stand on th les tag issue. As far as issues go, soige observers feel that th izt of Gill's vote may be f pretty god indication of public sen timent for a sales tax, t least among Republican. Some interest has been gen erated by the non-partisan Su preme Court races which, in effect, will be decided in the primaries.

First Nuclear Test Shot Said Imminent Washington (IP) The first shot in the new U.S. nuclear test series in the Pacific is im minent, government sources said today. In fact, they said it was overdue. The weather presumably adverse winds threatening to carry radioactive fallout be yond the test z o n e was blamed for delays. The Atomic Energy Com mission said some American communities may be tempor arily exposed to radioactivity levels "many times 'the nor mal background" during 'the forthcoming tests. But it said the increases "will not greatly increase the total exposure to radiation." The AEC said it had made certain no inhabited areas would receive any "signifi cant fallout" although safety personnel will be stationed on nearby inhabited atolls in event of an accident. May Convention Set Here By Hazarene Church The annual Missionary con vention and district assembly of the Church of the Nazarene will be held in Medford May 19 through 23.

Nixori will sit in tonight at a special session of Congress which may decide whether ousted e -President uan D. Peron will be allowed to return to Argentina. i President Arturo Frondizi announced in his inaugural speech that the first Mil his administration sends to Con gress will call for an "ample and generous" pardon for all Peronists now in prison or liv ing abroad as refugees. It wfll be up to Congress to decide whether to include Pron in its blanket forgive ness to refugees. The ex-President has lived in Paraguay, Panama, Venezuela and the Dominican Republic since he was overthrown in 1955. Nixon, who is here on an 18-day, eight-nation tour of Latin America, has omitted no opportunity to assure Ar gentines of U.S. willingness to cooperate with its Latin American neighbors on a basis of equality. The vice-president stressed this theme at a barbecue giv en for him late Thursday by the Municipal Worker'e Un ion. "We in the United States are proud of our own inde pendence, and we always want to respect the independ ence and freedom of choice of other countries," he said. "For this reason, we will never have the relation of a bigger nation to a smaller na tion with Argentina or any other country." iif ililtvil 4-H Club News Bookie Cooks We met at the home of Julia Jones, April 23. x Our meeting project was Berry Milk Drinks.
