MARSH SAYS AIM
is TO END FUSS

Pendleton, Ore, Sept. 10, 1915.
Editor East Oregonlan:
In order that the action OF the
County Court and Of the Board OF
Managers OF the Commercial Associ-
alton respecting the library contro-
vcrsy may not be misunderstood by
the public, | desire to say to the peo-
pie of Umatllla county. through the
columns of the press, that the County
Court and the Board of Managers of
the Commercial Association Of the
City Of Pendleton are not taking sides
with anybody In any of the Quarrels
and disputes that have been going on.
The purpose is to end the unpleasant
controversy without any more hys-
terra from any source. The Board Of
Managers has merely asserted its
ownership to property that was be-
ing wrangled over by other persons.
The action taken will enable the
courts to define and make clear the
ownership OF n large part Of the IL
brary that Ia now located in the
Umatilla county building, and no
doubt in the long run will enable the
courts to define the duties and re-
sponsibilItles OF all persons in any
way connected with library affairs.
