Porter Asked
To Demonstrate
'Statesmanship'
Bciul - (UPD - Former Gover
nor Elmo Smith today cnllcd
on Rep, diaries O. Porter (D
Ore.) to "demonstrate some
statesmanship" by letting
Smith's efforts to keep the
Northwest regional post office
In Portland be decided on Its
merits.
: Smith, a candidate for the
U.S. Senate, said Porter's Re
cusations that he and Post
master General Arthur Sum
mcrfield wore making a "po
litical football" out of the pro
posed switch of the reuional
post office from Portland to
Seattle were false.
Smith said that Porter's
dabbling in polities could
easily endanger the efforts to
keep tle office In Portland.
"I know from my personal
Interview wllh Summcrfield
that the decision to move the
regional post office to Seattle
was not made on a political
basis," Smith said. "It was
made in an effort to consoli
date administrative expense
made necessary because Con
Kress had ruined the post
office's budget. And Porter is
one of the men who voted
for a budget cut or $43 mil
lion," Smith concluded.
Smith, a Republican', op
poses Mrs. Maurine Ncubcrg
er, a Democrat, for one of
Oregon's two senatorial positions.

men feel welcome and Hint
they belonged In this room,
; First item road by Mrs. Bur
ton was about a lion. Next a
great deal was read ubout
Senttlo and Alaska. Then an
Item about world peace was
read.
Franklc Burton stopped.
Everybody was asked to tell
how old lie was. Many proud
ly stated their number of
years on earth. This was Inter
esting, especially, when
Frnnkle Burton told her own
age.
i Frankle also stated she had
no children and until rcuenlly
had never ridden a bicycle.
But she Is learning, And she
had bruised knees and was
bruised all over, she sulci,
The members wore gulling
IntoreNted In her accident
when Mrs. llurlon middcnly
began to read again. She rend
an article on uranium. And
how o man mucin nine million
dollars Just looking around,
recently. Tho man was out In
the hills and prospecting as a
mere amateur when ho found
the fabulous furluiie.
The men enjoyed this won
derful experience. They bn
eutnu utterly silent and strain
ed to hear every word.
The ui'tlclo read from u cur
rent magazine dealt wllh great
wen 111: - nlno million dollars,
It told of American opportu
nity which lies outside the
window, Just by prospoctlng
and locklnK' around on hills
mift dales. It was all very Irue,
the long and Interesting ni'tl
do elHlincd.v-
Twulvo Men worn attentive
to the absorbing piece and
Hearing tho end of the hour, a
meleo of excited conversation
urnse,
Tho group was beginning to
hovo a good time, Frnnkle
switched again. She- read
about n well-known lucent
pi'l.o fight, Time flew. She
even read Ihu baseball news
and apologised vigorously for
not knowing too much about
It.
Kho picked up a national
magazine and read humorous
lllllo Items, Then again, she
turned to serious mutters of
hope and opportunity,
This subject had ulready
been cxliuuslcd, Frnnkle sud
denly remembered. Sho read
of rochets In Htissln; Honclnirti
explosion, etc. brought no
comment, Then Fargo, N.
Dak.'s heavy vole was flushed
out by tho charming and en
ergetic voice of Frankle Bur
ton, Still no comment.
Back to Itusslu, and yet all
was silently received. Itussla's
milliliter of trade was read
about. A solitary member of
the group became slightly
aroused and spoke his piece
on prices.
Mrs. Burton Is a rapid rcud
cr und loses no time on In
consequential mutters. The
men wall for her patiently on
Wednesday morning of each
week, for nearly always sho
holds litem spellbound.
Mrs. Burton, pelllo and bub
bling wllh energy, Is a won
derful visitor to tho veterans
who cannot read at the do
miciliary. Somehow, sho was not quite
satisfied with tho result sho
hud obtained on this particu
lar morning. After tho urunl
uin story, their Interest had
diminished.' The end of the
hour was up.
Suddenly, Franklo picked
up u national magazine and
mild, "This is short; do you
want lo hear 11?" Everybody
said they wanted to hear It.
It turned out to be a vivid
artlclo on a Journey Into tho
Amuzon. It seemed, all at
onco, to all tho men, that all
of them had loft tho room and
were traveling with Tlicodoro
Roosevelt In Brazil.
So, once again, the rciidlntf
hour of Fninlilo Burton of
thn Red Crosr turned out to
bo a success after all.
