CARNEGIE ESTATE The Eastern Oregon basketball tourn ament will be held in Union March 3, 4 and 5. This year there will be no county tournaments to decide who will go to the eastern Oregon tournament. There will be two teams from each county from the Class “ A ” group and one team from the Class “ 3 ” group. This change was made In order to let the winning team whijh goes to Salem have a better chance at the state title. Last year <uxd' previous years the teams that represented eastern Oregon were at a disadvantage because in order to get to Salem they had to play more games than any other team in the state meet. This year the board for eastern Oregon planned to do away with the county tournaments and work on the new plan. The Union toumainent Is held In Union each year to decide the champ ionship team of Eastern Oregon that will represent this section of the state meet in April. The tournament is held In Union because the Union gymnasium has a better floor than any other In this section. Union is also more centrally located for all teams.

O W YH EE O F F IC IA L W IL L BE DELE GATE OF T IO N OREGON CONGRESS USERS AT CONFERENCE R E CLAM A WATER IN SA LT LAKE. • Another honor has come the way of Frank T. Morgan, secretary of the Owy hee Irrigation district. He has been named delegate of the Oregon Recla mation Congress to the Water Users conference of eleven western states In Salt Lake City on February 8, 9, and 10, of the coming week. Mr. Morgan will attend the conference. He was appointed a delegate by Judge Robert E. Sawyer of Bend, president of the congress. With Dr. Elwood Mead, commissioner of reclamation, In attendance the con ference will consider the proposed recla mation moratorium bill. The bill pro vides 100 per cent moratorium on 1931 payments by settlers on government Ir rigation projects, with 50 per cent re duction in payments to fall due In De cember 1932. Coupled with this, the plan provides that repayments to the treasury on two reclamation loans shall not begin until 1933. This bill Is said to be acceptable to the bureau of reclama tion. It would relieve the bureau of re paying the $2.000,000 in 1932. Other legislation of Importance to ir rigation states will be discussed. AUDIT REVEALS WHERE TAXES GO IN THIS COUNTY GROUNDHOG SEES SHADOW; BUNDLES UP FOR MORE SNOW When the groundhog peeped from hts hole Tuesday morning to deter mine whether spring would arrive early or late, a bright sun sun sent him scampering back. He saw hi* shadow. That means there will be six weeks more winter, If the peer among weather prophets Is correct. The sun on groundhog day was a deceitful sun. Bright beams were accompanied by a cold and wintry wind. An old timer, who claims he knows as much about the weather as the groudhog, stated Tuesday that he anticipates a mild and early spring. “ We should have an early spring,” he said, “ we've had winter weather since November."

Shippers and Railroads Rap Freight Rate Changes (B y Arthur Geary) Railroads and many livestock ship pers have expressed dissatisfaction with the new livestock freight rates. By petition just filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission trunk line car riers within the Mountaln-Paclflo group claim that the new livestock rates will decrease their revenues "not less than $900,000 annually exclusive of losses which will accrue to the various short line connections.” The petition of the carriers obviously U Intended as a basis for appeal to the courts for Immediate Injunction unless the Commission Is sues an order vacating the new rates. The objections of the shippers are varied. The shippers of straight car loads of cattle are penalized under the new cent*-per-hundred-pound rates by having to pay for the actual weight 'shipped rather than on a per-car basis. For many years all rates Into the mar kets of the Mountain-Pacific territory have been so many dollars a car. Ad mittedly, the cost to the railroad com pany of moving a heavy carload of cat tle is very little greater than the cost of moving a lighter load, because the tare weight of the empty car both going and coming furnishes the principal portion o f the weight hauled. However, the railroads sewing the Northwest, in an effort to get more revenue, joined with the Interior packers intent upon “bottl ing up” Ueeeteek and demanded that the Commission replace the dollar-per- car rates with the new cents-per- hund red-pounds basis. The oattle and sheep shippers object very seriously to the Increase In the grazing-ln-translt charges. These have varied from $5 85 to 111.50 per car throughout Mountain-Pacific territory Over railroads of the Mountain-Pacific Northwest the new tariffs provide a grazing-in-transit charge of cents per 100 pounds which, upon a 20000- pound load of sheep would amount to >17 a car, and upon a 30000-pound load o f cattle to $25.50. By Its decision the Commission does not authorize rail roads to make these Increases In graz- lng-ln-translt charges. The railroads merely took advantage of the publica tion of new tariffs to put In these In creases. Livestock shippers also object to some features of the new rules as to charges exacted for mixed carloads. Although the new rates cause reductions In mix ed double-deck loads, the rates on heav ier single deck loads containing one or more head o f cattle are substantially Increased. One Innocent Uttle lamb put in with a carload of 30000 pounds of cattle «muid Increase the rate upon all the cattle 25 per cent, while one suck ling pig would increase the rate upon the whole carload o f cattle 15 per cent. It Is important that the shippers study the effect of the new ratee and be prtptrMl to furnish mcidfd testimony when the re hearings are held.
