On this day, March 28, 1942, Japanese-American lawyer Minoru Yasui (1916-1986) violated a military curfew in Portland, Oregon, and demanded to be arrested after he was refused enlistment to fight for the US. He was one of the few Japanese Americans who fought laws that directly targeted Japanese Americans or Japanese immigrants following the bombing of Pearl Harbor. In 2015 he was among 17 people awarded the presidential Medal of Freedom.

Also on this day March 28, 1939, the front page of the Eugene Register-Guard blared the headline: "Mighty Oregon Scramble Ohio State to Take Hoop Title of All America," right under a declaration that the Spanish War had ended, of course.

City of Molalla Provides Options
Length of the tunnel is based on the whims of individuals

The City of Molalla, Oregon has posted this on their official facebook page.

COVID-19 Temporary Restaurant Relief

Dear Local Restaurant Owners,

As you are aware Governor Kate Brown has used her executive authority to shut down indoor dining for the foreseeable future due to perceived threats from COVID-19. While curbside pickup and delivery have been successful tools to combat some of the hardship faced by local restaurants, it is simply not enough to make ends meet for most of you. Additionally, as purported reopen dates have repeatedly proven to be nothing more than shut-down reissuance dates, City Staff has been brainstorming ways to support you.

While there is nothing that can be done at the local level to allow you to fully reopen, there are local rules that can be relaxed to allow you to increase your operations and remain compliant with all relevant laws and executive orders. In that vein, City Manager, Dan Huff, under his emergency authority, has authorized me to invite all restaurants in the City of Molalla to partake in outdoor dining operations (subject to City approval).

The process is simple, just contact me using the contact information above. I will meet with you, discuss your plan, and arrange for you to provide the relevant documents based on your plan and the nature of your property. There will be no fee for this process and barring situations outside our purview we can have you ready for outdoor operations within a day or two.

I can’t tell you enough how sorry I am that we have not rolled this out sooner. Like so many across our state and country, we heard “two weeks to flatten the curve” and believed that (even with some minor extensions) there was a light at the end of the tunnel. And, while we are still positive that this too shall pass, we now understand that the length of the tunnel is based on the whims of individuals, and that it has already been too long for many.

Thank you for being a valued member of the Molalla Community, please don’t hesitate to reach out as soon as possible to get the ball rolling.

Contact Mac Corthell at 503-759-0219 or mcorthell@cityofmolalla.com.

Please disseminate this information to other local restaurant owners if you are willing.
