To the Editor
nnar Edifor.

Dear Editor:
We are not in business here so
our opinion of what is good or
bad newsprint for a community
may differ from many.
We are just one of the many
families who have purchased a
new home in this area in the last
year or SO. Naturally knowing
of so many of our neighbors'
griefs as well as our own we
were quite interested in your ar
ticles on the housing project in
question. Many other housing
projects have had their troubles
too.
Another publication printed a
letter where they were being
highly complimented for their
news stressing the growth and
better side of the community
rather than mountaineering
as they called it. Is it for the
betterment of a community to
10 mention the many other things
you pointed out in your articles
have poor sewage disposal? Not
on the contractors negligence,
if that is the name to give to his
desire to save a dollar and let
the purchaser worry about It.
Our house was not connected
to the septic tank when we con.
suited the contractor we were
told to see the plumber. The
plumber did begrudgingly con-
meet the house but made an er-
TOR and in the long run we fixed
1t ourselves. The contractor in
that particular case and SEEM
ingly in many others felt once
a house is sold if the roof falls in
its no responsibility of theirs rs
he made it quite plain if the
plumber wouldn't fix it he had

Voice Of The People

Dear Editor:
Very few people ever mention
the day back in 1915 that was
devoted almost unanimously to
express a desire for the war to
end. Churches held all-day
prayer meetings, radio stations
and newspapers kept the thought
foremost throughout the day.
That day marked the begin
ming of the end of the war. Re-
member how the NaZiS started
fighting among themselves? How
Hitler took refuge in his super
safe hideout only to loose his
mind through fear?
The Jap fleet and airforce were
suddenly eliminated and al
though they sent out peace feel
ers we continued to pound them
until all diplomatic arrange
ments with Russia were com.
pleted.
Now it has become common
knowledge that Russia will new
er be satisfied until her Com
munists have enSlaved the world.
Her method of installing trained
Communists in high positions in
every free country has given
them the power to bend free peo-
pie to their will. They juggle our
democratic laws in such man.
ner, that when we convict and
Jail their headmen, at enormous
expense to we taxpayers, they
are released on bond to be feted
as heroes indefinitely.
Their chief weapon SO far has
been skillfully planned propa-
ganda which is merely ideas
forced to stay in circulation un-
til accepted by the majority of
the community. But people must
have faith in any idea if they
continue to believe it very long.
So the Communist plan of fore
ed slavery Immediately settles
the minds of people in newly
gained territories. Faith turns to
fear overnight insuring some de-
gree of orderly government.
We know that the majority of
citizens in occupied countries
feel that their position is hope.

complain aloud.
Recent events show that with.

| War with Russia would run on
for many years if we survived
the first thirty days due to their
thirty years of infiltration
among our communities. We
must avoid a fighting war il
that is possible.

what we did that day in 1915
Why wait until our boys are dy.

tions. Newspapers, radio sta.
tons, theaters, and churches
could join together in cam.
paign to set one minute each
day aside to think, talk, and

This gigantic thought wave
would grow more powerful as
more of the foreign peoples were
informed by various messengers
Even the slaves in Siberia would
receive strength from this moral

Editor, The Herald:
It is interesting to note how
quickly the Acc. has galloped
up on their great white charger
to explain, and add, attempt to
minimize the significance of the
appointment of DR.. Sachs to the
post of Deputy Benton County
Health Officer.
The first vain attempt to min
imize the appointment was when
it was stated in the Villager
that the restaurant ordinance !
referred to wasn't passed by the
county commissioners until Feb.
ruary of this year. My copy of
this ordinance shows 1t was
passed on the second day Of
February, 1913. 1t is significant
that this date is 1 year earlier
than was claimed.
This then brings up the ques-
ton: Is Richland.a part of Ben.
ton County? According to the
evidence it seems the County had
an ordinance as long ago as
February, 1913 that was not ap.
piled to the community of
Richland. At this time, d months
after the law was passed, steps
are taken at the request OF the
Acc. to establish a mechanism
to enforce this ordinance in Rich
land.
Why has the County Health
Officer not been inspecting Rich.
land restaurants and enforcing
the ordinance that was on the
county books? Could 1t be that
the benevolent dictatorship ex-
tends much further than Just
the project? Inquiry made by me
today substantiated what was
carried in DR.. Sachs' statement
that "the public health office
was not notified Of the ordin.
ance." This again points up the
question Is the community Of
Richlund purt of Benton coun.
tY?
According to the copy of the

dinance / have, it clearly states,

Bizet's Carmen" which was to

season at the Watergate last
Wednesday, was given last night
with the originally announced
cast. So far. the San Carloans
have been fortunate in having
beautiful nights for their per-

the popular opera drew one Of the
largest crowds of this series. A
special attraction was the appear
ance of Winifred Heidi as guest
artist in the title role.
Miss Heidi, who has one Of the
finest voices on the operate stage
today, has her own conception OF
the role. It is brazen and slightly
vulgar but it contains nothing
startlingly new as a portrayal Of
the famous gypsy. 1t has little
sersuousness or allure and is

A consent Judgment for $4,000
was granted yesterday in District
Court for skull, collarbone and
leg fractures suffered in June,

struck by an automobile.
The injured boy is Stewart

The Judgment was for $4,000 in
his behalf for the injuries and
$4,000, in behalf of the boys
: father, Max Waschler, for ex-
penses.
The Judgment, signed by Judge
Richmond B. Keech. was against
Maxwell G. Goldman. salesman
for the Quaker City Linoleum Co..
Inc, 609 F street NV, and
against the company itself. Mr..
Goldman was driving his own
automobile while employed by
the concern as salesman, the
court was informed. The acci-
dent occurred near the boys
home.
The Judgment was consented to
by attorneys for the plaintiffs and
defendants. Mr.. Waschler and his
son were represented by Attorneys

roundness and natural beauty OF
timbre, it has not the special rich
ness and power of insinuation
that seems necessary for the full
picture of Carmen.
The nearest it came to this
quality was in the card scene
where depth and sorority rounded
out the tones in an exceptional
manner. In the two preceding
acts, her singing was always that
of a fine vocal artist and the free,

q pleasure to hear. Yet, neither
vocally or histrionically did she
fill that long vacant place Of a
great Carmen. Competent, skill
full and satisfying to a certain
degree, her impersonation did not
outshine other interpreters in
capturing the magnetic charm of
this voluptuous, unprincipaled
character.
There was a marked increase in
originality in the performance Of
the artists singing the other i'm
portant roles. Vasso Argyris, as
Jose, actually acted as he sang
the La fleur que tu m'avais
jetee" aria and there were several
other instances when he touched

lar gesture or facial expression.

Carmen's interest in him under
standable, and q fine voice. The
Escarnillo of Grant CARMEL was
impressive. combining as it did a
splendid baritone voice, attractive
stage presence and a real idea of
the character. He, also. brought
more action into the "Toreador
Song" which he sang excellently,
than is customary.
