To help protect business people, farmers and the general public, the Nyssa chamber of commerce has made arrangements to check the legality of the various schemes that are pre sented for consideration of local residents. This section is reported to have been recent ly flooded with nackties, reputed to have been made by handicapped persons. Investigation by the chamber of commerce revealed that only four per cent of the money derived from the ties made in a certain factory reaches the hands of handicapped persons. Apparently a few handicapped persons are employed as a "front” for the concern’s propaganda, which is sent through the mails.

But remember— they're no By Bob Davis K SR V , Ontario ONTARIO, April 28—Malheur county's state senator and repre sentative have returned to eastern Oregon after breaking into the game o f politics on a state level in Oregon's longest session in history. Both Elmo Smith, senator, now of John Day, and Vernon Wilson of Vale, showed by their legislative record that their promises to work bard at their jobs if elected were not idle boasts made to capture votes. Both men worked hard—with Smith never absent nor excused when a bill was up for vote in the senate. Wilson was absent at one oalloting and excused from three others. The representative failed to vote when the house considered a bill which would have repealed the law now barring use o f secondary boy- cots in labor disputes; when the house voted on u bill to license contractors and when the milk marketing administrator bill was passed. Generally speaking, an observoi could say Sm ith and Wilson had a meeting o f minds. Most of their balloting in separate chambers, saw the men agree in their think ing. But not always. The senator and representative showed diver gent views on the following quest ions: Smith voted against the fair em ployment practices bill which was finally passed in both houses. Wilson favored the successful bill. Smith favored ammending the state one percent withholding tax on wages and salaries to exempt seas onal farm labor. Wilson was op posed to the amendment. The a- mendment passed both houses. Wilson voted against the bill to have voters decide in 1950 whether the school support money shall be increased from $50 to $80 per child. ! Smith favored the bill which will cause that question to appear on the 1950 general election ballot. The senator was against a move to pass a law which would have allowed only the state to levy in come taxes. W ilson voted yes. In a final point of opposed think- | ing, Smith voted against a bill i whclg would have set a minimum I price on cigarettes. Wilson favored the bill. In other action important to eastern Oregon, Smith opposed re peal of the milk control act; was opposed to repeal of the law pro hibiting sale of colored margarine; and was in favor o f abolishing the death penality. ( Wilson opposed the move to do away with capital punishment in this state.) Both men favored reorganization of the agriculture department and both were opposed to the reapport- lomnent bill which would have given several areas of large pop- plation more senators and repre sentatives. Smith and Wilson voted yes when he highly controversial pension he $50 minimum old-age pension Pill was passed. The bill repeals act passed by the people in Novem ber, 1948. and provides that $50 pensions shall be paid where there is enough money to pay them. I t also provides that the state public welfare commission has a first claim on the estates o f deceased pensioners to recover funds granted them. Botli legislators also voted yes on the following questions: T o increase gas taxes and double automobile licenses and raise taxes on trucks and buses; to raise maximum un employment benefits to $25 fo r 26 weeks and to increase liquor license fees 60 per cent and allow private clubs to sell liquor by the bottle to members.
