true there is a need for more
population. But the opportu
nity is there only for those
with enough money to exploit
it or the ability to sustain
themselves until they get a
foothold in their new home.
Alaska already has its share
of people who are either on
welfare or drawing unemploy
ment compensation for part of
the year because of seasonal
jobs.
Proof of this is the fact the
new state legislature is faced
with the problem of paying
back some $8,000,000 to the
near Stuttgart, Germany. He
is the son of Central Point
City Mayor and Mrs. Freeman
Mason. His wife and daugh
ter, Angelica, arrived in Cen
tral Point recently and re
mained ' to . visit here until
Mason's discharge from the
Army. -They will be making
their home in Central Point
where ,Mason has taken a po
sition with Howard Cooper
corporation.
Visitors at the Dominic Tate
home have been Mrs. Tate's
brother and family, Com
mander and Mrs. H. E. Brown
and daughters, Lucille and
Peggy, of Rio Vista, Calif. A
camp-out trip near Meadows
on Evans creek was enjoyed
by the Browns, Mr. and Mrs.
Tate and children, Florence
and Johnny, Mr. and Mrs.
Francis Marshall, Bob and
Sheryl, and" Mr. and Mrs.
Jess Reeves arid daughter,
Hope.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lance
of Central Point are parents
of a baby boy' born July 14 in
Rogue Valley hospital, Med
ford. The baby weighed 6
pounds, 4 ounces. He has been
named M i c h a el W a y n e.
Grandparents are Mr. and
Mrs. C. W. Abbott of the Old
Stage rd. and Mr. and Mrs.
Floyd Lance of Gold Hill.
Mr. and Mrs Bert Cook
have moved from Alder st. to
their new home on Bush st.
Making plans for the fair
were descussed by the Crater
Rockets" Rock and Mineral'
club in their meeting, Wednes
day in the home of Sammy
Hughes. Attending were Dan
ny Leonard, Larry Johnson,
Gladys Schwebs, Sammy
Hughes, Carolyn Leonard,
Nancy Schwebs, Irene

Nancy Schwebs, Carolyn

were named as a committee
to design an exhibit arrange
ment for the fair. After the
business 'session, cake and
punch were served. .

Federal government for loans
issued so that state jobless
benefits could (fontinue for
workers in occupations such
as construction or mining.
Since the passage of the
statehood bill in June of 1958,
thousands of words-have been
written for worldwide con
sumption about Alaska's fab
ulous storehouse-of resources,
its free land and its colorful
population.
The resources are here but
they will remain locked in the
earth's surface until large
amounts of . money from in
vestors not intereste'd in turn
ing a quick buck arrive on
the scene with sufficient capi
tal to make, the mountains and
glaciers yield a harvest.
There is an abundance of
free land available for home
steading in isolated areas
away from population centers
but homesteading is only for
those who are brave enough to
try it. Any prospective home
steader should be prepared to
give years of his life and
spend at least $150 an acre to
clear his land for cultivation.
Few Millionaires
As for the colorful charac
ters who came to Alaska in
search of a new life and be
came self-made millionaires,
there are a few. But like many
of their fellow Alaskans who
arrived here poor and found
a comfortable living, they
came alone and either married
later or sent for their wives
when they had made a stake.
They did not follow the devil-may-care
practice of bun
dling their families into a car
or truck and loading their
worldly possessions on the top
for an adventure over the ho
rizon. The price of such in
dulgence can often be too
high. ' - --
What should you do if you
desire to settle in the new
state? .
First, come up for a vishv
You will be welcomed with
open arms by warm-hearted
citizens who like nothing bet
ter than to show off the won
ders of Alaska's magnificent
scenery and promise. Don't
burn your bridges behind you
until you are certain there is
a place for your talents- in
this great land. ; ' '
Have Enough Money '
Second, have either a defi
nite commitment for a job be
fore you make the long jour
ney or at least enough money
to keep your family for a
month and the return trip
home if things don't pan out.
And last, don't expect mir
acles. While Alaska offers
much in opportunity, it also
can extract a terrible toll in
heartbreak or privation for
those", who cannot stand the
rigors of living in a frontier
atmosphere.
If you can honestly state
you . can fill these required
ments, come ahead. You will
find the friendliest people in
the world live in Alaska.

Doctor Faces'
Murder Charge
West Covina, Calif. - (LTD -Dr.
Bernard Finch, 41, faced
arraignment today on a
charge of murdering his es
tranged wife, Barbara.
Finch-, who according to
police chief Allen W. Sill
maintains he was in Las Ve
gas, 'Nev., at the time of his
wife's slaying, was returned
here Monday from the desert
resort.
He was arrested Sunday in
the Las Vegas apartment of
his former nurse, Carol Tre
goff Pappa, 22, and booked
on suspicion of the gunshot
killing of his 33-year-old wife
Saturday night outside their
$80,000 home here.
Mrs. Pappa, now a cocktail
waitress, appeared to dash
Finch's alibi when she admit
ted driving him here Satur
day so he could talk with his
wife about a divorce, police
said. The couple had been
separated since May. ,
Finch's father, Dr. Ray
mond R- Finch, revealed his
son had been under psychia
tric care for several months
and said he had been "act
ing strange and goofy lately."
"The boy is a brilliant sur
geon and is well known for
his work," said the elderly
Finch. ''But lately he has
been completely overworked
and just plain out of his
mind."
Federal Deficit
Peacetime Record
,Washington-(DPD-The Feder
al government wound up $12,
500,000,000 in the red in fis
cal 1959, the treasury report
ed Monday.
The deficit was a peacetime
record, but slightly smaller
than President Eisenhower
forecast last January.
The treasury said that in
the fiscal year which closed
June 30 budget reotipts to
taled $68,200,000,000 and ex
penditures; $80,700,000,000.
The gap was $330 million
less than Eisenhower predict
ed. Receipts were slightly
greater that had been expect
ed, the treasurey said, because
of brisk business expansion in
the spring. Expenditures" fell
somewhat below the January
forecast. t .
Only wartime deficits have
been bigger than this latest
one. In fiscal 1958 the deficit
was $2,800,000,000.

What Is
This column is prepared as a public service by the
College of Law, Willamette University, Salem, to
explain basic legal principles, not to provide legal
advice. The reader ik cautioned not to apply these cases
to his own problems without an attorney's advice, for
differing facts may change the outcome.
Law Sets Time Limit
On Suing
"It is my opinion that W. L.
Lowe is a thief. He is stealing
my sheep," declared W. W.
Brown on several occasions,
the last of which was June 11,
1958. This made Lowe angry.
The more he thought about it,
the angrier he became.
Finally, on, July 1, 1959,
Lowe went to his attorney to
start an action against Brown.
Much to Lowe's surprise, the
attorney told him it was too
late more than one year had
passed and the statute of limi
tations requires that an action
of slander be brought- within
one year. ' '
Time Limits
The statute of limitations
limits the time in which dif
ferent kinds of actions can be
brought by individuals. In the
chapter on limitation of . ac
tions in the Oregon Statutes,
the longest time given for the
commencement of a civil ac
tion is ten years for the recov
ery of real property, actions
onr foreign judgments, and on
sealed instruments. Various
other actions must be started
within two, three, or six years.
In a case such as this, how
ever, the statute does not run
that is, the tim is not counted
while the wrongdoer is out
of the state or is concealing
himself. If Mr. Brown had
gone to California immediate
'Mm of a Promise
Sure, she's a grand old flag!
That's why we salute her.
That's why we pledge allegiance to her.
That pledge, in its simplest terms, is another way
of saying,'"Count me in. You're my country
and I love you and need you. Your problems are
my problems, and I'm with you all the way."
Your country's biggest single problem is the
perpetual responsibility for keeping the peace its .
people, want. You can help with this problem
by remembering this:
Peace costs money. Money for military and
industrial strength. Money for science and
education. And money saved by. indiyiduals by
you to help keep the economy strong.
Bonds provide this money. Every Bond you buy
is an important, "personal pledge of allegiance
to your country. Think it over.
Are you buying enough? . -

The
ly after he spoke the slander
ous words and lived there for
three years before returning
to Oregon, Lowe would have
had four years in which he
could have sued.
General Expectation
The statute of limitations is
founded upon the general ex
pectation that claims which
are valid are not usually al
lowed to remain neglected. It
i designed to protect citizens
from stale - and vexatious
claims, and to prevent litiga
tion after a reasonable lapse
of time. Law best serves the
vigilant and not those who
sleep upon their rights. After
all, witnesses eventually die
or move to parts unknown,
memories fade and evidence
disappears.
