A badly crippled band of Indians, how ever gave the Cavemen a real battle and kept the issue In doubt until the final two min utes of the game, when Grants Pass, striving desperately for the one victory needed to assure the league championship, pulled far enough in front to protect their winning margin. The game was a seesaw battle from start to finish, keeping a record crowd of fans in a frenzy of suspense.

Kelly WASHINGTON, D- C Feb. 27. National planning board, which has planned for the Pacific north west, will be wiped off the map unless the president can discover some way of reviving it possibly through the blank check. Fred erick A. Delano (the president's Uncle Freddie) is the chairman of the planners and this organiza tion has grown from a tew thou sand dollars to asking appropria tions well over a million. Mem bers of the northwest delegation attempted to save the board and many municipal officials from Washington and Oregon wrote to retain It. The president himself cave the board an indorsement oy I saying that it is economical to continue it; that planning ioi the post-war period will save mil lions of dollars. There are three reasons why the national planning board has been cut off the payroll. 1. There are half a dozen federal agencies devising plans. 2. Most states, par ticularly in the northwest, prefer to do their own-planning instead of having a program handed to them from Washington, D. C. 3. It was a board sponsored by the president, and was, in addition, superfluous. The northwest states want to know what to do regarding em ployment for soldiers when they return home; what public works can be Initiated to replace the shipyards and other war indus tries. The national, planning board has been taking an inter national view rather than a do mestic one. In a recent report it says: "After Europe's needs for food, clothing and emergency care have been met, perhaps then our greatest opportunity to help others will be found In Asia and in parts of North and South America," and this report sug gested that "some sort of Inter national RFC" can be set up "to engage In international lending." 1 ft is all, of course, to be financed by Uncle Sam, from food, cloth ing and mcnicai supplies m ...c international reconstruction cor poration. Of all the planning prepared for the northwest very few, if any, of the recommendations , 1 - nn....;,a l..trt -ivofiillon. transportation, subsistence, medi cal attention, etc. There are now slightly less than 100 labor camps j in this country, possibly a couple ol dozen in the Oregon-Washing ton section, and the idea is to in crease them to about 250. Prune Prices Need Boost j Before OPA discourages Ihe prune growers entirely it should listen to the growers of Clark ; paign is asking maximum pro- j duction. Drying facilities and equipment are almost beyond reach of the grower who does his own drying, and prices for dried prunes are prohibiting drying, write growers to OPA. Price is $35 a ton delivered at the can neries for the green fruit. Set price for dried prunes Is 6.5 cents a pound when it should be 8.5 to 10 cents. One grower writes that his labor bill on 8000 bushels was S-1,469, or 50 cents a bushel, and this did not include other items of expense. Food For Mexicans To thnsn farmers nf the north. west who have been advocating ' the importation of Mexican labor this suggestion on feeding these workers should be studied: it is from a federal agency, advising what the farmer must supply for the table: "Butter is to be served at every meal. Bacon squares or meat in some form for breakfast 'six times a week and ham one ' 1 time a week. Eggs should he i served every morning and no I uiiiu piccu on ine nuiuuci coir pear growers who mav have lo om pining some of their trees ,hjs sp.,nR ol labor si10rt.

Support Prices Set to Increase 4 Cannery Crops Specific dollar-and-eents sup port prices and details of the pro gram through which growers of four major canning vegetables will bo encouraged to plant acreages that will permit maxi mum 1943 packs were announced ? lasi wcck oy me uregon usl 11 war hoard. The program covers peas, sweet corn, snap beans, and tomatoes grown for processing in 19-13. Processors who pay growers at least the announced minimum prices will be certified by the state war board as eligible to par ticipate in a government pur chase program. Through the com modity corporation the depart ment of agriculture will purchase the output of certified canners ;nd sell It back to the canneries at a discount. R. B. Taylor, war board chair man, explained that the purpose of the program is to pay growers prices that will compensate for higher cost of production without increasing the cost of the canned vegetables to the consumer. Minimum fair prices to Oregon growers, as announced, include: Peas, western Oregon Grade 1, $112 a ton, size 2, $101; size-. $84; size 4, $03; size 5, $49; s.J) 0. $32. . Green beans -Grade 1, $132 a ton; 2, $112; 3, $S2. Wax beans -Grade 1, $115 a ton; 2, $G5 a ton. Sweet corn $23 a ton, field run basis. Tomatocs-$25 a ton, field run. These prices represent consid erable increase over returns to growers in 1912, Taylor pointed out. Growers will obtain the an nounced minimum prices for their crops by contracting with certified processing plants. Safe, Painless Childbirth Seen In New Method CHICAGO.
