Oregon has had state treasurers
who declined to give out figures on
i he amount of money the state had
.jit hand. These treasurers o f the
past reckoned the figures were too
easily missunderstood and started
legislative raids on the state. State
Treasurer Leslie M. Scott is not of
that belief. He has murnished a st­
atement of money on hand which
.entains some all-time high totals.

N A V Y D A Y OBSERVANCE U R ­
GED
Governor Earl Snell has urged the
observance of October 27 as the
annual Navy day in celebration of
triumphs o f the fighting American
fleet and in particular tribute to the
men of the navy from Oregon.
"Navy day this year will celebrate
spectacular achievements in the
Pacific and Atlantic,” said the gov­
ernor. “ The day, as well, will emp­
hasize the growing conviction that
a strong navy is one of the most
dependable guarantees in thé pro­
tection of freedom.”
Navy dinners and luncheons are
being arranged in many commun­
ities and others are planning pro­
grams and parades. The date marks
the anniversary of the presentation
of the bill for creation of an indep­
endent navy to the Continental
congress in 1176. It also is the 86th
anniversary of the birth of Thea-
dore Roosevelt, widely credited with
being the father of the modern
American navy, now the most pow­
erful in the world.

"Many war veterans already are

calls attention to the National He­

in additional income.
This farm was purchased “ on the cu ff” and experimental operations
were started three years ago in the belief that the people of Malheur
county would vote appropriations to cover its purchase. W e believe if the
voters had fully understood this measure it would have passed two years
ago. I^et’s not make a mistake this time.
