Ho said: "Leaving out a few regrettable exceptions, management and la bor are staying on the Job volun tarily and working In co operation with the government to win this war. That Is strong testimony to the realism and sincerity of pur pose of the American people." NO one is wholly satisfied with what we have accomplished in the 16 months we' have been at war, but that Is largely due to the fact that the task we faced on December 7, 1!M1, was so Im mense that even the miracles of production we have brought about are not sufficient to meet the needs that exist. When we need so badly to do Ihe impossible, we can't be smug ly satisfied merely with a remark able record. w IE ought to realize, however, that the remarkable record we have made is due WHOLLY to the co-operation we have beenable to bring about and not at all to I the quarreling and the backbiting and the buck-passing we have In-1 dulged In. SOME day the war will be over. When It ends, we will fae'e an other task almost as huge as that we are now engaged in. When that time comes, it will again be co operation that will en able us to meet and overcome Ihe difficulties we will face when we tackle Ihe Job of rebuilding our country AN11 A WORLD that have been sadly wrecked by war. F very much as If this generation ' and the next will NL'VER be nble io anorcl the luxury or quarreling and fighting and refusing to co operate. In the situations we will be called upon lo face, such things will be plain inexcusable EXTRA VAGANCES.

The Office of War Information is circulating statistics tending to show the prosperous condition of the dairy industry, deliber ately avoiding the issues involved in the controversy but doing such a good job of camouflage and smoke screening that there is danger persons lacking knowledge of actual conditions may be misled. 'Ihe.OPA and OWI "news releases" avoid any mention of the numerous dairy herds that who have been forced to stop butterfat from fluid milk to butter Hnd other dairy products. The smoke screen hides the growing shortage of milk for consum ers, the financial losses to the producers, who, through a sense of loyalty to their customers, are striving to keep milk available for retail sales, and the problem of distributors who arc being forced out of business by continued losses. Already three Roseburg distributors have been forced to sus pend retail deliveries and others are precariously maintaining milk routes. The same situation prevails throughout the state. These facts are carefully ignored by the OPA and OWI in their news releases, which would cause the consumer to believe that all is irosy with the dairy industry, and that the producers and distributors are an unpatriotic bunch of people trying to gouge the public for excessive A statement released April 3 newspapers points out that Oregon's cattle inventory on Jnnu- nry I, 1943, showed an increase; that good dairy cows are not being slaughtered and that increasing. T Studies by OPA indicate that except in a few indi vidual communities, increases in the price of milk to the consumer have failed to increase the overall supply of fluid milk," the OWI declares. Typical of bureaucratic double-talk, that quotation is a sam ple of the effort to mislead the public with regard to the milk question. There is no claim by the dairymen that increased prices will increase the total supply of milk. An increase on the ceiling price of butterfat, however, will make it possible for the con tinued production of fluid milk. Otherwise there will be a shortage through diversion to I he milk producer is not going at a loss when it is possible for his product to the creamery. production of milk for any hours, the hard labor, the shortage of helo and other emblems.

Ellsworth Joins Protest Against Office Closing WASHINGTON, April 8-(AP) Two congressmen from Oregon and one from Colorado protested before the house appropriations committee against closing field offices of 'the Department of Commerce. Rep. Ellsworth (R-Oro.) argued that there will be no reul savin and said the action might result In additiona' expense. He said the ofricrs have been Increasingly busy during the emergency and that, should they be closed, other ngencies would have to be set up "with the re sultant delay and inefficiency." He added that "information on our foreign trade, on the volume of work handled, and the experi ence of war agencies using the d(stnet offices clearly innicates that it is sound economy to con tinue -these offices." Rep. Angel (R Ore.) said his investigations indicate the bureau of foreign and domeslk com merce "has been one of greatest service in furthering the interests of small businessmen and indus try generally in my district." He presented a supporting statement from the Portland chamber df commerce. Rep. Chenoweth (R-Colo.l sub mitted a list of persons and firms asking continuance of the field offices and commented that "these firms do not 1 enjoy the same access to federal offices and agencies as do companies located along the coast lines and have learned to rely on this office for information that is not available elsewhere."
