Dessert Seed Company OWYHEE DRUG CO. BILL LANE I W ant To Thank A ll my customers for their patronage of the RHEUMATISM and ARTHRITIS W ol ves In Sheep’s Clothing Always Appear To Fight PUD Here we quote information taken from an engineering report made by R. E. MacDonnell of Burns and MacDonnell Engineering company of Kansas City, Mo., to the Indiana Municipal Electric Association, Indianapolis, Indiana Dec. 12, 1945. “ Opposition to public ownership by the companies is often handled by expert advertising or propaganda concerns who agree to defeat a bond issue for a price. They conduct the campaign, leaving the local company out o f the picture with nothing to do except pay the bills. The opposition usually takes the form of creating a committee under some high sounding name such as “ Citizens’ Taxpayers Committee,” or “ Citizens’ Protective Com mittee.” These names are usually selected to catch the wary citi zen or voter: and then this agency of the Private Utility uses the “ committee” as a means or vehicle for spreading its propaganda, aided by a subsidized press in some instances.” It is also pointed out that these propaganda agents first of all rush to the prominent citizens o f the community and tell them a big story about they have got to help stop the communist move ment or any story necessary to get them on record as opposing public power. Then later when they find out their mistake there isn’t one in a thousand that will publicly announce his mistake. So they use prominent citizens this way to pull the wool over the people’s eyes. Any local similarity may only be coincidental. Nyssa Electrical Education Club AUTOMATIC ARMS TO BE REGISTERED Firearms of the automatic type, such as machine guns, sub-machine guns, or any type of gun from which a number of shots or bullets may be discharged with one continuous pull of the trigger must be register ed with the commlsloner of Inter nal revenue, Washington, D. C., through the alcohol tax unit In Oregon, with offices at Portland, La Grande, Klam ath Falls, and Eugene. Many of these firearms bought or sent to this country from abroad by members of the armed forces and merchant marine, either with or without certificates signed by commanding officers, have not been registered. It is illegal to transfer firearms of the types described except by the payment of the $200 tax as provided by law. However, If the firearms are rendered unservice able, they may be transferred tax- free as war trophies upon submiss ion of the proper form to the com missioner of internal revenue. The national firearms act pro vides a penalty of a fine not to exceed $2000. or Imprisonment not to exceed five years, or both. In the event any person Is convicted on a charge of violating any pro vision of the act, which includes failure to register a firearm of the type described and transfer o f such firearm without payment of the $200 tax.
