Service) Aircraft Warning service week has been completed and due tri bute paid to the thousands of civilians who have lent a hand to the U. S. army air forces by serving on observation posts, in filter or Information centers and in many other ways. The press and radio both went out of their way to honor the AWS, and we of the service cer tainly express our heartfelt thanks for the many kind words said about us. When you serve a shift on a post or In the filter center, there certainly is little glory coming your way but when you see the many business houses of our town spending large sums of money with the newspapers to express the appreciation of the citizens for our services, then you really have a new and keener outlook toward the nation we all love and the people who reside therein. Speaking of AWS week we must toss a few bouquets toward the men behind the scenes; Col onel Stratton, Major Morgan, Captain Young, Captain Rich ards and Lt. Glotzbach. Also, the fine hand of PFC Victor Galmu koff did an excellent bit of work In the art department. He has a knack for artistic endeavors that was well demonstrated in the many illustrations seen In the newspapers and we don't want to forget the Sector Sergeants who did their usual fine Job. Then there are the many oth er persons who donated time and effort to make the week a suc cess. Among them will be found the names of the volunteers who manned the filter center that was set up In a downtown Portland department store window during the day and the observers from Washington county who daily manned the observation tower at Victory Center . Speaking of Portland's Victory center reminds us that It was during the program that a lady approached Colonel Slratton and Lt. Hynes and asked If she could servo on some post. She present ed her credentials from Wilkes Barrj, Pa., where she served as a volunteer observer. Her nnmn is Carolyn Eitel and It waj sug gested that she contact the Mil waukie, Ore., post as it was the closest one to where she was staying while here. Tho Victory Center observe tion post had an amusing Incident that might be worth repeating here, seems that during the mid die of the day a large crowd had gathered In front of the depart ment store window to watch the workings of a filter center, and across the street stood the tower of the OP. One of the young ladies on duty was Intently watch ing the crowd and the sky in equal rotation when suddenly she spied a plane. Hurrying to the handset telephone she picked It! up and remarked to her co-observer: "'Heck, there's' a plane, guess I'll have to report It." Her words carried across the street to the huge crowd because her tele phone was really a microphone at tached to a public address sys tem, and the citizens of Portland had a good laugh. But the young lady reported the plane and even though slightly flustered, did the report correctly. We hope In the near future to localize the weekly columns, and give to each district Just the news of their own observation posts ex cept where some unusual Incident occurs. In order to do this, we need more news from you ob servers ... so send In any items and we will use every one that we .possibly can. Adjustment on Hatching Egg Prices Planned An attempt to bring Pacific coast commercial hatcherymen to gether on uniform and equitable prices for hatching eggs is to be undertaken immediately, accord ing to Mrs. H. A. Watzig of the Watzlg hatchery. Mrs. Watzlg, re cently elected president of the Oregon Baby Chick association, which Is a part of the Interna tional Baby Chick association, has returned from Chicago, where she attended the T. B. C. A. All In dustry War Time conference. One of the principal issues be-J fore the conference, she reports,' was the disparity in prices paid for commercial hatching eggs In various poultry centers of the country. Prices in eastern and mid-west ern areas, she states, are around 43-45 cents, while in Oregon hatcherymen are paying 53 to 64 cents. A mandatory OPA ceiling is threatened unless hatcherymen put their own house in order. and eliminate cut-throat competi tion, Mrs. watzlg reports. Flock owners will be principal losers if OPA prices are set, as mid-west rates doubtless will be made to apply, Mrs. Watzlg be lieves. If hatcherymen, on the other hand, try to work out a mu tual agreement, regional adjust ments probably will permit con tinuation of the premium which heretofore has existed for Pacific coast eggs. A meeting will be held in Oc tober to work out details. One of the resolutions passed by the conference requests that celling on corn be raised so that the use of more expensive and less effective substitutes for feed purposes can be discontinued, she reported. There is ample corn In the mid-west, It was stated, and if the commercial poultrymcn and dairymen had the privilege of paying the market value on corn as established by the corn-hog ration, instead of the ceiling price of $1.07, they would have a right to a fair share of the nation's corn supply. Christian Science Workers Send Supplies to England A total of G02.200 garments have been shipped to England, according to an official report made by the Christian Science War Relief Sewing groups of this country, and 2000 garments are sent every month from Amer ica to Russia. Refugees in Great Britain, Chanel Island, Norway, France, Russia, Czechoslovakia, Austria, Latavia, Holland, Belgium, Spain, Greece and Malaya have receiv ed the benefit of these garments made by the women of this coun try. The organization reports it has still been unable to get gar ments through to the needy In China, but have made up this dif ference by" donations of many to that country. Mrs. Annie L. Russell is chair man of the group in Roseburg and hundreds of garments have been sent out of this community to Portland to be shipped to Eng land. Women of the community have assisted in the sewing by attending the weekly sewing ses sions every Thursday at the Per kins building, however, the group will discontinue further sewing meetings until fall.

S. navy's construction battalions. (Sea bees), according to a recent statement by SecretaVy of tho Navy Frank Knox. These are the men who build advance bases be- . I yor;d the continental limits of the U. S. and who defend these vital Installations. l)ui, tia imr tuuL-s l-aiciiu Hint gains In enemy territory, the greater becomes the need for ad ditional men for the ' Seabees. Right now the situation Is criti cal, according to Chief Specialist W. E. Bell of the Roseburg navy recruiting station. Thousands of skilled workers are needed im mediately for duty in the com bat areas. Mechanics, carpenters, machin ists, draftsmen, electricians, rig gers, powermen, pipe-fitters and plumbers, welders, wharf-builders and concrete workers are a few of the skilled workmen so greatly in demand. Any man with J experience in one of these trades I can qualify' for a petty officer rating in the Seabees, Chief Bell reports, and is asked to go to the navy recruiting station without delay for a preliminary inter view. All men" between 17 and 501 can enlist In the Seabees. Those in the draft group 18 to 38 who have not been called for in duction, may volunteer for in duction. Details of this proce dure may he obtained from the navy recruiter. However, it is emphasized that draft-age appli cants must be able to qualify for skilled trade ratings. Tho quota for 17-vear-olds and those over 38 is unlimited In both skilled and unskilled ratings. Chief Bell stresses the fact that application at the navy recruit ing station does not affect a man's present draft status. He is not obligated in any way un til he is cleared for voluntary in duction by his draft board. Those men who would like in formation on what kind of a job they could get In the Seabees are urged to see Warrant Carpenter L. J. Wolgamood, Seabee Re cruiting Officer, who will be at I he Eugene recruiting station on Tuesday August 17th from 8 a. m. to 4 p. m. Here the men can find out what kind of a rating he Is eligible for as well as find out if he is qualified for service in the Construction Battalion.
