It Happened This Way
in
New Pine Creek
By IRVIN FARIS
Last Sunday Dec. 7th! O-r-r-rrrl
Pardon just can't help but think
(with still a wee bit of a rankling
bitterness) of what happened U
years ago on that name but far
more gioomy day when, at 8:15
a.m., cunning, efficient Captain
Mit&uo Fuchiua led 183 war planes
In a suprtse attack on Pearl Har
bor. The death dealing armada In
cluued 51 aive bomoers, 4 level
bombers, 40 torpedo planes and 43
liglueis all of which hopped oil
six air-craft carriers huddled omi
nously Just a looo miles from the
Hawaiian Islands so woefully un
detected. That latal early morning
as Fuchida shot througn the air
with his lleet of destruction to
ward his target he became wor
ried. He had not heard from the
two Dlanes he had dispatched
earlier that were to give him the
much needed weather report over
Uie harbor. But he tuned in to the
breakfast music coming from the
base at the close of which, very
accommodatingly, a full weather
report was giveu, that enabled
him to change his tactical ap
proach to elleciively put eleven
of our battleships and cruisers out
of commission lymg peacefully in
the harbor to say noth.ng ol the
three destroyers, one target ship.
one minelayer, one seaplane tena-
er, and one repair vessel that
were also damaged. Criminateiyl
How did we ever weather euca a
blown?
It took Intestinal fortitude but
and some of those boys who
had a hand In our recovery from
same are represented in the local
warren weicn rost no. 1737 oi
the Veteran's of Foreign Wars.
This local chapter met last Sun
day Dec. 7th at the Antler's Hall
with another philanthropic mission
In mind. They have decided to
undertake the responsibility of put
ting on a safety campaign for
Young America that is growing up
- n our schools ana towns.
Objective protect the lives of
children in town here at Kelly
Creek school lust north of town
the State Line School just south
of town, the willow Ranch school
and the Davis Creek school
It has been common criticism
for many months that cars speed
ing across the state line have
failed to adhere to the road signs
at the approach of either side of
the village. What does "Speed
Limit 3b Miles rer Hour" mean?
As these signs go unheeded the
lives of the children are endan
gered. This fact alone gives rise
to the ever growing need or a
vigorous safety campaign!
Purpose to focalize the attention
of motorists and the local citizen'
ry that since highway 395 is be
coming more and more popular
as r. travel artery someunng
must be done!
The first step of the Vets will
be to arouse public Interest in the
undertaking. They are soing to
sponsor a safety essay contest in
the lour schools above mentioned.
The student body navine the win-
ning essay writer in its group will
reeeive an award prooaoiy a sll'
ver loving cup which the school
will be entitled to possess for one
year. Then another similar con
test will be sponsored. The exact
subject to be written about re
garding safety will be announced
later, cnaries (unuct) Mawnin-
ney. an officer of the post, said.
The second step in the project
will be a poster campaign of
strong eye-appeal that will make
every motorist conscious of bis
or her endangerment to the lives
of the children when they travel
at excessive speed through a town
or past a scnooi building.
A third phase of the campaign
will be to enlist the cooperation
of the Oregon and California state
Police to actively assist in the pro
gram oy mazing u more ire-
quent trips past these four loca
tions so they can tag the speed
sters and (2) make occasional
salety talks to the school assem
blages to acquaint the pupils with
the seriousness of their proper be
havior in regard to traffic safety.
A fourth endeavour of the vets'
program will be an attempt to
build walk-ways from the towns to
the schoolhouses so that it will
not be necessary for the children
to travel the highway while going
to and from school where a
thoughtless motorist may either
be speeding or negligently attend
ing the business oi driving.
Mr. Mawtiirmey strongly empha
sizes that before the post can do
very much it will be necessary to
have the whole hearted support of
the townsfolk of the three towns
Involved especially in regard to
building walk-ways to the schools.
The slate highway departments
have already stated their position
that they are not authorized to
spend money on such civic im
provements. It resolves therefore
as a specific burden resting uon
the shoulders of the people whose
children will benefit by same.
A fiiih factor in the safety pro
ject will be the erection of more
stop signs at the town Intersec
tions and side roads; larger school
signs and safety crossings painted
on the highway at the school
houses. Watch this column tor news of
the proeress of the Vets' safety
campaign.

walk-way and other safety lea
tures for Uie school children were
also discussed, A committee was
appointed to investigate every
angle oi saieiy measures to be
pursued.
A feature of the meetlni was
a talk by Carroll L. Brown who
spoke on India. His message
largely concerned his experiences
ana observations made while a
merchant seaman, visiting at the
main ports of Uiat country first
lu 1937 and again In 1945.
Even though a lite In India
means very Utile because of the
tarnished conditions which prevail
there, still there are many people
there who have very defmte ideas
about t h e English speaking
peoples. They have been exploited
so severely In the past that they
are very skeptical and that Is the
reason they are receptive fertile
soil lor the broadcastings of com
munism. In Mr. Brown's opinion
this nation both for the sake of
is own expanding commerce and
for the betterment of world ten
sion and unrest should be looking
westward to India rather than
eastward to Europe.
"We can help those people Im
mensely over there If we'd go at
it right. In a friendly, helpful man
ner," Mr. Brown said. "They need

The East Side Christmas party

a regular meeting it was decided
at the meeting held last Saturday
evening. There will be treats pro

committee as is ted by Earl Butler
and John Richardon. Mrs. Louise
Miller was appointed chairman oi
the supper committee for the eve
ning and she promises real
tasty plate full.
A letter from Forestt Cooper
was read In regard to the $150,000
set aside for the building of a new
court house that if it was cot
used within a limited time it would
revert back into the general funds
thus banishing all nope of hav
ing a new courthouse in the
visible future. Earl Sanford and
Raymond Fisher were appointed
as a committee of two to see what
steps the Grange should take one
way or another.
The lecturer had provided
