Problems Facing Sanitation Men In State Cited Curtin Everts Says Cit izens 'Fake Benefits For < >rante<l Some of the many problems that face the sanitation division of the stateboard of health were discussed by Curtis Everts of Portland at a meeting o f the Nyssa Civic club in the parish hall Wednesday after noon. Mr. Everts, who is chief o f the environment sanitation division of the Oregon state board of health said the many benefits in sanitation enjoyed by the average citizen cost him only 10 cents a year. "These benefits", Mr. Everts sta ted, “ the citizen is apt to take for granted, especially in a 'push-but ton' age when many things happen to us without any effort on our part. However, these benefits in the field of sanitation have come only as the result of much care, planning and effort." Mr. Everts briefly outlined some of the factors that go into the pro vision of a water supply for a city. First a good source must be dis severed; a plan kftsigned and en gineering and construction accomplished before the city can be assured of a pure water supply. Related to the supply of pure wa ter is that of sewage disposal and stream sanitation. Mr. Everts sta ted that the Willamette river has been one of the worst polluted riv ers in the United States and the worst in the western part o f the country. However, this river will in two or three years be again a source of water supply. Formerly most of the Willamete valley towms secured their water supply from this river, but as it became pollut ed were forced to seek mountain streams for water supply. In the last few years, due to heavy forest fires, the mountain stream water supply has been lessened to such (Continued on Page 2) Bt*<‘I Producer« Di «eus« Wage« The executive committee of the Nyssa-Nampa District Beet G row ers association, meeting in Nyssa Wednesday afternoon, discussed a proposed wage scale for thinning and weeding beets that would take into consideration the quality of work done. Pointing out that a flat rate is now paid, the spokesman for the group said the growers are consid ering a provision for quality of workmanship, with a maximum per centage that could be deduc ted fur poor work Workers who did a 95 per cent perfect job would receive full pay The proposal, along with suggest ions from other areas, will be sub mitted to the department of agri culture for consideration.

Sun Valley | to Portland Goodell Is Anion*' Gandidutes Filing For Countv Office Henry Hartley, superintendent of Nyssa schools, told members of the Nyssa Parent-Teacher association In the high school building last Thurs day night that residents of the school district will be erecting school buildings for the next 10 or 12 years because of the increase in school population. Using Oregon birth statistics as applied to the Nyssa school situa tion, Mr. Hartley pointed out that the present first grade enrollment is 157 as compared to an enrollment of 82 in the present eighth grade, which entered school in 1942. Using the past figures for his predictions for the future, the superintendent said the first grade enrollment in 1950 will probably be 144; in 1951. 143; 1952, 182; 1953, 223; 1954, 216, and 1955, 210. Rooms available for the first eight grades next year will be Nyssa ele mentary, 20; Arcadia 4; Oregon Trail, 3, and junior high school. 9. Elementary rooms needed in 1950 will be 33. in 1951, 35, 1952. 38; 1953, 41; 1954, 47 and 1955, 50. "Nyssa ls a normal area In the state of Oregon, so it looks as though the deduced enrollments are ap proximately what we can expect", Mr. Hartley said. “ W e will have to have a bulge at both ends. We will need not only more elementary rooms but also more high school rooms. As the larger classes begin to come in we will need more rooms in the high school. A decrease in the birth rate will come, but we don’t know when. It is goipg to be a tremendous problem. The board has not decided what to do, but it is quite evident that something must be done. "N ext year we can get all of our children in the Nyssa and Arcadia schools. W e can close the Oregon Trail school, but we don’t know what to do about It. I f we use It year after next, we will have to spend »8,000 to (10,000 on it. We would have to rewire it, do consider able plumbing, install fixed parti tions, put more windows in the big room, work on the heating plant and make other changes in order to bring the building up to standard. The board wonders whether it would be worthwhile to remodel the build ing, which was built for a dual purpose, a schuolhou.se and a com munity meeting hall. "W e must also think about the location of our buildings. We are a rural school district, with more than 50 per cent of the students travel- ( Continued an Page Seven) I. B. Allen Tells About Venezuela Following Trip I. B. Allen, who returned home last week from Venezuela, where he was aguest of his son. I. B. Allen, Jr., for six weeks, said the country Is largely dependent on the oil In dustry, in which the younger man is interested. I. B. Allen. Jr., man ager of the Petroleum Industries Consultants, lives at Caracas. Mr. Allen was accompanied home by Mrs. ‘Allen, who visited relatives i in Shamrock, Texas, and Arkansas I and eastern Oklahoma while her husband was in South America. Mr ! Allen flew from Fort Smith, Arkan- ! sas to New Orleans and there chang- | ed planes for Caracas. He stopped j at Havana, Cuba for two hours | and at Jamaica for three hours. Mr. Allen said Venezuela does little manufacturing and engages in agriculture only on a limited scale. The crops consist mostly of bananas and sugar cane. Avaset corporation, which planned at one time to establish a factory in Nyssa. sends canned cream into Venezuela. There Ls very little fresh milk in the country. Range cattle are raised quite extensively in some sections. The government receives half of the net revenue from oil production and that pays 89 per cent of all taxes paid to the government. In Luke Murucobia, an urm of the ocean, oil derricks extend so far they ' disappear over the horizon. In one comparatively small pool, there Ls one billion barrels of oil. Mr. Allen said the only thing cheap in Vene zuela Ls gasoline, which sells for from 5 to 10 cents a galllon. Nyssa Chamber Holds Meeting James Leslie, president of the Nyssa chamber of commerce, speak ing at the weekly chamber luncheon Wednesday noon, urged the bus inessmen to wholeheartedly sup port the march of dimes drive that has been started to raise funds for the fight against polio. Folders, providing local residents with an easy method of making their contributions, have been sent through the malls by the polio com mittee headed by Mrs. Iienry H art ley. Contributions may also be made by placing money in contain ers placed in local business houses. Jed Lewis, newly appointed dist rict manager of the Amalgamated Sugar company, who visited in Nyssa in 1940, said " I am astounded at the growth the town has made; what a fine ftw n it Ls. I know you fellows deserve a lot of credit for it. Things don't Just happen. A lot o f fellows with push und vision can make progress Certainly you have done a fine job." Mr. Lewis said he will move his family to Nyssa from Rupert after the clase of school. President Leslie said the relation ship between the sugar company and chamber of commerce has al ways been good. He pledged that the chamber of commerce will do its part to continue that relation ship.

The heaviest snowfall to occur in he Nyssa section in several years olanketed the city and surrounduid territory with approximately 6 ‘ a inches of snow Tuesday afternoon and night. An employe of the United States bureau of reclamation said the new snow measured 6 '» inches Wednes day morning. Ed Steinke, city em ploye, who said he measured seven inches of snow at his home Wednes day morning, stated the fall of snow was the heaviest since the winter of 1936-37, when 14 inches of snow fell during one storm. B ill Bolitho, reclamation bureau employe, con firmed Seinke's statement that the 1936-37 winter was a bad one. The surprising depth of snow caused many automobiles to become stalled In all sections of the city, kept store employes busy shoveling snow from sidewalks and provided an Impetus for the sale of tire chains at service stations. The snow continued to fa ll until almost noon Wednesday and then the precipitation tiutied to rain, which quickly froze, making the main thoroughfares slick. Despite the sudden downpour of snow, all school bus drivers were able to cover their routes, although a few ol them were late, according to Superintendent Henry Hartley. However, the good fortune of the bus drivers was due largely "to the Nyssa road assessment district, which had used plows on the bus routes before school time. The city of Nyssa and Nyssa Road Assessment district are co-operating today In removing the snow from the main streets in the business section. The snow was bladed Into the middle of the street during the night and loaded Into trucks this morning.
