Coal Delieveries in Oregon to go on Restricted Basis SEATTLE, Sept. 18. (AP) Restrictions on coal deliveries will start Monday in Washing ton, Oregon and the 10 northern counties of Idaho. A priority system, under which first call for supplies will go .0 industrial, commercial and indus trial users who must keep their operations going, will become ef fective at 12:01 a .m. after mid night Sunday .They may obtain season's supplies, but no more. "The idea is the same now un der firewood priorities, and the coal priority system will operate the same way," James C. Scully, regional OPA fuel rationing rep resentative, announced. He said the step was not rationing. Next in line after the commer cial and industrial users, In the order in which deliveries will be made are: 1. Domestic users of coal and wood whose supply on hand, both wood and coal, is less than nne-fourth their annual- needs. They may have enough to bring their supply up to one-fourth. 2. Domestic users who have one-fourth or more but less than one - half their annual needs. They may order up to one-half. 3. Consumers who have one half or more, but less than their year's needs, may order up io their annual needs. 4. Consumers who need coal and wood but who use fuel oil, gas or electricity primarily, may order enough to fill their annual needs. No consumer may order more than what he needs for a year. "It was necessary to add coal vo the firewood rationing order be coe A. Day, acting chief of the cause of the uncertainty of the coal supply for this area," Ros northwest solid fuels OPA ra tioning branch, said. "The purpose is to assure that there is coal in the basement of of every home accordinj to ihe need and that war and indus trial plants are kept rolling this winter by the fairest possible distribution of the available supply."

Western Lumber Wages are Argued PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 21 (AP) A War Labor board pan el continued hearings today on cases appealed from the west coast lumber commission. Representatives of the Ana cortes Veneer company, Ana cortes, Wash., and the Kosmos Timber company, Kosmos, Wash., were heard yesterday. The panel also heard arguments on a com mission ruling which gave wom en equal pay with men in the rotary cut box-shook industry of Oregon and Washington. No de cisions were announced. Dean Wayne L. Mors", public member of the board, told the Oregonian that the WLB will not resort to widespeard wage In creases as a solution to the Pa cific coast's manpower problem. Increases awarded Boeing air craft workers, he said, put wag es where they should have been long ago. I'pnolding the "Little Steel" wage formula, he said liv ing costs would have to rise con siderably to justify a change. His views were supported by Almon E. Roth, president of the San Francisco employers' council, an employer member of the board. War Job Heeding More Manpower Subject to Permit WASHINGTON, Sept. 21 (AP) "Hereafter, Chairman Donald Nelson of the War Production board has decreed, no govern ment contracts requiring addi tional manpower may be placed on the west coast without his specific and personal authority. The order, made public last night, gives only the factor of timely delivery precedence over elfeciive use of labor resources in determining how and where war contracts shall be awarded or revised. In this respect it ap plies to all parts of the country. Nelson's order was accompa nied by an explanatory state ment from Tudor Bowen, direc tor of WPB's procurement pol icy division. "As insufficient manpower is hurting production procurement agencies are directed not to place contracts in areas of acute la bor shortage, notwithstanding the existence of facilities capable of doing the job, whenever it is practical to place the contract elsewhere," it said. "Whenever demand for an item diminishes, contracts will be ter minated in labor shortage areas before other areas, thus releas ing labor for more important jobs in the places they are most needed." Yhk k Add Adl But it's different. Please Read. It will do you good if you read it twice. SAW By Paul Jenkins A classified ad in the News Review, reading thus: "For sale, gun and pointer dog. Leaving' for army." His gun, and his dog. Two of man's dearest possessions solaces in hours of trouble, gladsome companions in days of joy. Next to kith and kin, a gun and a dog cling closest to a man's heart. Yet, there comes a time . . . when even all of these must be forsaken, guess that time is here, Pooch. "I How often when the going is tough through mud and slime, or snow or sand, do you sup pose this young soldier will think of that dog of his, lying as he will perceive him beside the fire, with his eyes raised hopefully to his master's face, eager for a casual word, a friendly ruffling touch? Don't you suppose the Garand or Spring field, with its menacing feel of chill death to human foe, will at times be transformed at memory's whim into the sleek, balanced lines of that sporting gun of his? That is ... it and the dog WERE his. Where do you suppose they are now? "I wonder if the purp thinks of me now and then." x The trail this soldier is taking is long, long er than those ho has followed in the hills at home. It is tortuous and rough and galling, beyond anything he has known or dreamed, and it leads to the portals (and perhaps through them) of a far, strange country whose name is Eternity. Whining, shrieking things pass over his head, unseen, faster in flight than any bird, deadly things, such as were not known in the fields back home, ghastly things of death har rowing to a soldier's soul; when he's all alone, you might say, without his dog. "Do you suppose the old fellow could point this game?" Well, my soldier friend, should you find at the end of this trail that which all of us must find sometime, somewhere, somehow I hope that four-footed pal will come in fancy, creeping to your side, nuzzling you with cool nose comfortingly and so re-assuringly, as though he would say: Everything is all right, Master. Here I am. We're together again. What-else matters now? What else, indeed? "You can trust a dog's love. When he loves you once, he loves you forever." In that celestial Country Beyond of eter nal happiness, where there is said to be per fect joy and utter bliss, surely surely a sol dier may hope to find his dog.
