NEW UNIFORMS
SALEM — Within the next few
weeks all units of the Oregon Na
tional guard will be supplied with
the new style long trousers and
canvas leggings to replace the
breeches and wrapped leggings
which have been the regulation
issue for enlisted men of the army
heretofore. Major General George
A. White announced this week that
orders have been placed with the
war department for enough of the
new style trousers to supply the 1500
men of the 186th infantry and the
218th field artillery who have not
yet received them.
LIVESTOCK THEFT ARRESTS
Twenty-two arrests were brought
about through efforts of the live
stock theft investigation division of
the state department of agriculture
during the first half of 1939. Nine
teen of the arrests resulted In con
victions, one defendant was acquitted
and three cases are still pending.
Penitentiary terms aggregating 17
years were meted out to six of the
defendants but five of them were
paroled from the bench and only
one of the number actually went to
prison.
FAIR TRADE IS NO ROBBERY
A private elevator may be a great
convenience but it does not afford
much relief from the heat as Gov
ernor Sprague has discovertd during
the past week. When the capitol
architects designed the new build
ing they made provision for shower
baths in the offices occupied by the
secretary of state and state treas
urer but not in the executive suite,
thinking, no doubt that he should
be content with a private elevator.
Offers by the governor to trade his
elevator for a shower bath have
failed to interest his board of con
trol colleagues although both have
graciously consented to allow the
governor to indulge in a cooling
shower during the hot weather in
exchange for an occasional ride on
his elevator.
A PLAQUE FOR MARTIN
A bronze plaque honoring former
governor Charles H. Martin is soon
to be placed in the new capitol. The
plaque, the work of George B. Clau
sen, Portland sculptor in bronze, has
been financed through contribu-

OREGONIANS INSURE
Oregon residents paid out a total
of $43,526,444 in insurance prem
iums upon all classes of Insurance
during 1938. according to the annual
report of Hugh H. Earle, state in
surance commissioner.
NEW PRESIDENT FOR E. O. C.
R. J. Maaske, just elected to the
presidency of the Eastern Oregon
College of Education at LaGrande,
was formerly assistant state sup
erintendent of public instruction
under C. A. Howard whom he suc
ceeds at the LaGrande institution.
A graduate of the Universiay of
Kansas, Maaske began his teaching
career at Irrigon in eastern Oregon.
ENTERTAINING ANGELS
One evening last week a kind
hearted motorist travelling along
the highway down in Coos county
picked up a couple of youthful hitch
hikers. The grateful hitch hikers
explained to the kind hearted mo
torist that they had been kept in
after school and had missed their
bus. They also regaled the kind
hearted motorist with tales of their
numerous pranks at school at the
expense of their teachers most of
whom, in the opinion of the youth
ful hitch hikers were deaf, dumb
and blind—especially dumb. All of
which interested the kind hearted
motorist immensely for he had once
been a boy himself, and as a boy
had attended school and may have
played jokes on his “dumb” teachers
even as did these modem hitch
hiking youths. Arrived at their
destination the boys thanked the
kind hearted motorist profusely for
the “lift” and he in turn thanked
them for their entertainment and
as he prepared to “step on the gas”
he presented each of his guests with
his card. Ie read: “Rex Putnam,
state superintendent of public in
struction."
ORDER OF THE ANTELOPE
Official Oregon was well repre
sented at the annual gathering of
the Order of the Antelope on Hart
Mountain last week. Among those
making the pilgrimage to the cen
tral Oregon shrine were State Trea
surer Walter E. Pearson, who holds
the title of Keeper of the Canteen,
in the organization; Secretary of
State Earl Snell: Dan J. Pry, state
purchasing agent; Jerrold Owen,
secretary to the world war veterans
state aid commission, and Lewis
Griffith, secretary to the state land
board.
KILLERS GET THEIR DUES
A total of 5472 perdatory animals
were killed by hunters in Oregon
during the first six months of 1939.
according to J. D. Mickle, stae di
rector of agriculture. The list In
cludes 4944 coyotes, 496 bobcats. 23
bears and 10 mountain lions.
LIQUOR PROFITS INCREASE
Oregon’s liquor monopoly did a
$8.361.561 business during the year
ending June 30 last, according to a
report by the liquor control com
mission. Profits for the year were
reported as $2,864,861, an increase
of nearly $140.000 over the previous
year.
MORE NEW CARS
If the automobile business is any
criterion the people of Oregon are
more prosperous than they have
been for many years. Statistics
compiled by Secretary of State Snell
show thtat 15,732 new cars and
trucks were sold by dealers in this
state during the first half of the
year. This is an increase of 35 per
cent over new car sales for the same
period in 1938, Snell said.
