The combining of local grain Li about wound up, with good yields of plump grain, and good work of picking up down grain by Buddy Robinson's new combine. Since our talk with our Indian friend, Chief McLean, we have heard nothing from him. At that time he said he was going tn try to get a lease or some form of contract so that he could establish an Indian village on top of lower Table Rock. To do this it would require much road build ing and other , work. This, and Bill Duggun's 10-acre lake now under con struction, the cost of which will be mostly labor, and the big Irrigation dam to be built some time in the not too distant future will help out the unemployment situation and will bring more people to this area. This, some of our people view with alarm, claiming they come here to get away from crowded conditions. Some lime ago a Sams Valley farmer, who told two coon hunters to get off of his farm was knocked down and seriously beat up. He ordered them off because they had two dogs with them that worried his dairy cows. He is still going to a doctor owing to the assault. Going to the district attorney he was told about all he could do was to bring a charge for trespassing. In our time, we have known many cases where a person was heal up, they called it assault and battery, and a stiff ppnalty where it was done on the assaulted persons' prop erty. We wonder what happened to our laws. According to this, a person could be assaulted in his own home, with the assaulter getting only a trepassing penalty, , Mrs. Doug Robinson and four children, of Napa, Calif., were recent visitors here with relatives at the E. E. Robin son home. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Glascock, of Tucson, Ariz., were visiting with friends here recently at the E. E. Robin sons. They attended the Tuesday night Bible class, and Mr. Glascock preached a sermon. v AT statement made on yesterday's radio program that the Oregon State Grange is supporting the referral of the controversial tax law, is not true. The State Grange has advised its members not lo sign the petition. The following excerpts from the State Grange Master's comments in the Grange bulletin will explain the stand taken. "Another Tax Law Might Be Worse." "Efforts to refer the new tax law lo the people should be discouraged. If the sponsors of the referral movement are successful in obtaining sufficient valid signatures on their petitions, the new law should be upheld by the voters. "Who is backing the movement to refer the law is not definitely known, but there is a suspicion that it is the same group which is anxious to burden the public with a sales lax. There is no reason to believe that instead, some form of sales tax would he foisted on the public. Then the Grange would have to enter the fight to throw the sales tax out. "For these reasons, we believe that we should endeavor to live with the new law for two years. In the meantime, pach Grange should set up its own tax study committee to study taxes in its own area and to endeavor tn draft legis lation which would spread taxes more equitably." Thought for the day . . . A little help is worth a deal of pity Central Point C. A. Meyer, superintendent of dis trict 6 schools, presented a re port on building needs to the board of directors Tuesday night. He said a bond issue for building will be necessary in the near future. Meyer stressed the need for four additional classrooms at Patrick school in Gold Hill and 12 rooms and a multipur pose room in Central Point. He pointed out the need for a study nf the enrollment at Sams Valley. Meyer noted that the estimated number of students per classroom for the coming school year at Central Point Junior High is 40. In view of the anticipated heavy enrollment in the first grade and because of room shortage, District B will not be able to accept first grad ers whose birthdays fall after Nov. 15. This is in accordance with state law, he continued. Approre Agreement ' Board members approved a property agreement with the city of Central Point which will effect a joint school playground-city park program which has been in the plan ning stage for several months. Because of the growing need for expansion in the school system, District 6 of ficials have purchased six acres of city property for a site for a building which eventually will house 500 stu dents. The property is located on West Pine st. and is pres ently being used as a city ball park. District 6 also has leased the remaining 4.2 acres at this location in exchange for four acres behind Jewett school leased to the city. The leased acreage will be jointly used and maintained as city parks and playgrounds. The agreement which board members approved sets forth the responsibilities of the school district and of the city of Central Point. Study Property Plan C. L. Ghelardi and C. W. Anhorn, board members, Don Patterson, councilman, and Harry Tonn, planning com missioner, formed the com mittee which studied the plan.
