Decisions involving funeral arrangements are
usually made at a time when there is emotional
strain. Helpful assistance and guidance is the
rule at all Fuiten, Friesen mortuaries. Personnel
are instructed to offer arrangements tailored to
your individual financial situation and arrange a
service in keeping with your own religious pre­
ference. Years of service have given Fuiten/Frie­
sen a well-earned reputation of competence and
stability.

Duncan to Run
For U. S. Senate
Robert B. Duncan, congress­
man from the fourth district of
Oregon, at a press conference at
the Congress hotel in Portland
Wednesday of last week, declared
his intention to file for the Demo­
cratic nomination to the United
States senate. This is the position
presently held by Mrs. Maurine
Neuberger Solomon.
In making the announcement,
Duncan declared himself as sup­
porting the president's policy in
Viet Nam, and in support of all ac-
tion to stem the tide of commu­
nism.
In some instances money will
go a little farther today, but it
still won't stretch as far as next
payday.
