Salary Said
One-Man Pay
SALEM, July 1 OP) Attorney
General George Neuner ruled Sat
urday that a salary of "not to ex
ceed $1000" voted by the last legis
lature to supplement the pay of the
deputy state treasurer in his capac
ity as ex -officio secretary of the
state bond commission could not be
legally paid to anyone else who
might become secretary to the com
mission. In another opinion N tuner
stressed that county courts are re
quired, to provide justices of the
peace within their jurisdiction with
such offices, courtroom and clerical
assistants as the court deems necessary.
Tongass forest near Ketchikan by
a Bellingham, Wash., concern if the
bill is passed by congress.
The Bellingham company already
has made extensive surveys, Skeel
said.
But. Bartlett declared, senate op
position is mounting rather than
diminishing and the newsprint con
cerns have said they will cancel
negotiations unless the legislation
is approved.
With the outcome in the balance,
two prominent Ketchikan business
men were en route to Washington-
today to lend their support to the
bill, which was passed over twice
In the senate this week on objec
tion of Individual senators.
Robert L. Jemberg. president of
the Ketchikan chamber of com
merce, and William Bates, presi
dent of the Ketchikan Mlnters' and
Merchants' bank, conferred with
Seattle civic l.iders on their way
to the national capital to urge pas
sage of the measure.
Bartlett said objections by Alas
kan Indian leaders had Impeded
the bill's progress in the senate and
made it impossible for him to frame
a compromise with the help of the
interior and agriculture depart
ments. He said he would continue to
press for passage of the measure
as approved by the house, with a
provision that funds received from
sale of the timber be held In the
treasury until claims of the Indians
to 10 per cent have been settled.
Bartlett added that he had been
told by Senators Cain (R-Wash.)
and Magnuson ID-Wash.) it had
been agreed by Senator Taft (R
Ohio) the bill should be given pri
ority for consideration before con
gress adjourns.

Demos Form
Wallace Club
FRESNO. Calif., July 19 W
The start of a "grass roots" cam
paign which they hope will spread
to other states with the aim of
winning the 1948 presidential nom
ination for Henry A. Wallace today
drew a group of California demo
crats to an organizational meeting
here.
Former Attorney General Robert
W. Kenny, unsuccessful democratic
candidate for governor in 1948, in
itiated the meeting. He said he
hoped delegates from each of Cali
fornia's 23 congressional districts
would attend.
A telegram to Kenny from Har
old W. Young, Wallace's secretary,
congratulated the group on the
meeting regarded as the first for
mal step in the nation to open a
drive for Wallace and said that
if democrats of other states follow
the lead for Wallace "there will be
no need for a third party in
1948."
Kenny told a news conference he
believed Wallace would win the
California convention votes if op
posed by President Truman.
If the national democratic con
vention does not nominate Wal
lace, Kenny said, the former vice
president will have to go on as an
independent candidate," although
it would be better to have him as
a regular democratic candidate.

Log Boat Rams Barge And
Sinks During Long Race
SEATTLE, July 19 (ff) Wrecked
in the night on Puget sound, the
37-foot cruiser Dorothy became a
casualty of the 1947 International
predicted-log powerboat race from
Bremerton, Wash., to Nanalmo,
B. O. None of the seven persons
aboard was injured.
As a result of the accident, how
ever, nine race officials will not be
on hand for the finish of the 145-nautical-mile
event in which 132
power cruisers are competing.
The officials were being taken to
Nanaimo on the coast guard cutter
Naugatuck, which turned aside to
aid the stricken cruiser.
The Dorothy rammed a barge off
Possession point just after turning
a new leg on hei course, her owner,
W. T. Coy of White Center, said
today when he and his party re
turned to Seattle aboard the Nau
gatuck. The three children and four
adults on the Dorothy were taken
off by the American Tug company
tug, Irene, of Everett, Wash., which
was towing the barge.
The cruiser's passengers later
were transferred to the Naugatuck
which also put the sinking craft in i
slings and brought her back to Se
attle.
Coy said the night was dark and
the weather not too clear, and he
was not certain how the accident
occurred.
Rescued from the Dorothy were
Mr. and Mrs. Coy; their son, Gary,
6; Mrs. W. T. Watts; her son,
Charles, 4, and daughter, Etta Ma
rie, 5, and a man identified only as
a Mr. Peterson.
Failure of the race officials to
reach the finish line is not expected
to prevent accurate check of the
many cruisers as they complete
their run. Many Canadian yachts
men who have been working closely
with officials at Bremerton will be
at Nanalmo to compare running
and predicted times.
The only graduate of the East
ern Washington college summer
session to be graduated with hon
ors was Walter Anker of Klamath
Falls. He and his wife are resi
dents of trallerville, the college
veteran's village.

be denied to countries Ideologically
