Commer cially, that is; you still have a lot pf official red tape left to un wind. . rIE special Airways train up to London Is unbelievably small, according to American railroading standards, unbellev ubly clean and neat and amaz ingly comfortable. The standard British Pullman restaurant cars of which it is made up arc about as unfamiliar to an American as could be imagined. Small to begin with, they are divided into compart ments that make them seem smaller still. In the center of each, there Is a kitchen a pantry, they call It. Outside this pantry, on the passenger's side, the dishes are stacked in shelves with glass doors, looking much like a china cabinet in a home. The dishes, Incidentally, are thin and fragile. How they keep them from gelling broken Is one of life's deep mysteries. You are sealed in a comfort able arm chair, with a table be fore you and another chair on the other side. Along about 11 O'clock, a steward lays the table with linen and china lays It meticulously, Instead of slap ping the stuff down In front of you and daring you to do any thing about it, as Is the more or less standard custom In American diners (the streamliners always excepted) In these parlous.' days. ' A half hour passes, during which, If you choose, you may Jndulge yourself in stimulant, front beer tip. The steward then brings a serving dish, with bread, sliced rather thick. Do ing as others do, you take a slice, lie then brings In a soup plate, and follows with a tureen of soup, from which he serves you. He follows that with a salad, vegetables and cold cuts (note 1ho term, please) and finishes up ultimately with a tart and a small cup of black coffee, it is oil excellent In quality, and arnple without being cloying. wee IOWHERE is there a sign of a menu. Nowhere is there any suggestion of choice. You lake what comes, and find it ;ood. Nor is there any sugges tion of price. You take that on faith.

It seems to be, for he brings back change which you shove Into your pocket in what you con- ANOTHER NEW INDUSTRY By Charles Douglas county is to have say "another"' because industries have been moving in so rapidly that it is difficult to keen pace with them. But we are particularly interested American Cross Arm company, which is preparing to start construction immediately on a mill at Roseburg', because this plant may be the beginning of a new chapter in our industrial progress. It is our opinion that the great field for industrial develop ment in Douglas county lies in have the Pacific coast's largest remaining stand of mer chantable timber. But a large part of that timber is de stined to be placed on a sustained yield basis, which fixes a limit on the amount of raw lumber which may be cut annually. We are approaching very rapidly the sawmill capacity which may be maintained under sustained yield. This does not mean there is not room, at least temporarily, for more mills. In fact, many millions vt feet of timber, privately and publicly owned, will not come under the sus tained yield program. This volume of uncontrolled timber will supply extensive mill operations for many years. But, eventually, We will reach a limited to, annual growth. have built up a much larger -cutting capacity than the eventual sustained yield program will support, the surplus mills those failing to set up unit will be forced out of business and someone will be hurt financially. In normal times there is only a small margin of profit in sawmilling, particularly under a transportation handicap such as has existed in Douglas County. When rough lum ber goes into construction or finished manufacture, there is a very substantial amount of waste.' It becomes quite ap parent, therefore, that by producing the manufactured product near the source of raw materials, cost of transporta tion on waste is eliminated. ' Douglas county offers an exceptional opportunity to wood manufacturing industries. There is a field here for several plywood -plants. There is room for sash and door factories, plants to manufacture broom handles and dowels, furniture factories, etc. The list is long. In addition, we should have plants for the manufacture of alcohol, adhesives, chem icals, plastics, etc., from sawdust nd other wood waste. Thus we could utilize every portion of the tree. Even the bark is being converted now into a very fine synthetic cork. Douglas county has one outstanding advantage for the companies that come in early. We have an assured lumber production for many years and, if sustained yield policies are continued, as we expect they will be, production is assured indefinitely. Those in the immediate future and continued supply of raw materials will have a guarantee of continued successful operation, insofar as resources are con cerned. Each new Industry which :omes into the county arouses interest on the part of other concerns looking for locations. Consequently the coming of the American Cross Arm com pany means, perhaps, that some other manufacturing group will be led to investigate Douglas county's possibilities. Many firms are building plants today in localities where timber resources are nearing the point of exhaustion, indi cating little investigation into the availability of raw ma terials in future years. For those who arc seeking long time operation in an area where supply is assured for many years to come, and probably perpetually, Douglas county offers the outstanding opportunity. DIAL-LOG By SUSAN With the tempo speeding up in the Pacific, we're again watching the teletype like hawks, and we can assure you that any hot news thai bleaks will be relayed to you immediately. It's getting to the place again where we keep the speakers around the studio either turned off completely or tuned so low that we can hear the warn ing bell that precedes a bulletin. We'd like to remind you that we have a -very complete network news coverage beginning at 7:00 A. M., which will be extended at any time there Is anything spe cial. Likewise, there are three ed itions of state and local news each clay except Sunday. We'll admit that we get a hit th-ed of hear ing each commentator In turn serve up the same news story, but, on the other hand, suppose we turned the radio off and missed one of the news bulletins. eclve to be a casual manner but later count with Intense applica tion to detail and arrive at the not too positive conclusion (the British monetary system throws you for a loss for days before you get the hang of it) that your lunch has stood you up to the extent of about 60 cents Amer ican.

Pepco Recapitalization Proposal Is Submitted PORTLAND, Aug. 3 (AP) A recapitalization plan to simplify coroprate structure of the $39, 9ti0,000 Portland Electric Power Co. t Pepco) and Its subsidiaries was submitted today to the U. S. Securities and Exchange commis sion approval. Attorneys for Independent trus tees said the plan would consoli date Pepco and its principal sub sidiary, the Portland General Electric company (PGE), on or before Jan. 1, 1!M8. One subsidi ary will he sold, another sepa rated from the PGE and a third either sold, mnrged or established as another firm. Attorney T. W. Delcll said the Pepco and PGE would each be recapitalized it 1,000,000 shares of no-par-value stock each. The Portland Traction Co., a 11E sub sidiary, will be separated. White House Plea Planned To Get Food Information WASHINGTON, Aug. 3AP -Rep. Daughton (D.-Va.) said yesterday that unless the army complies with his request to tell how much food its has stock piled, he will appeal to the White House. Asserting that "I think it is a fair assumption we are over stocked," Daughton said Gen. Somervell, chief of army service forces, had not responded to a request of nearly three weeks ago tor an Inventory of army food storks. (Army officials have said that If their food reserves were re turned to civilian channels the amount would not be sufficient to feed the nation for one week.) The Virginian told the house several weeks ago he believed "hoarding" by the armed forces w as la-vely responsible for civil !n food shoftdijes.

Franco to Battle Olsen in Mat Bill Here Saturday Young Franco, the Roseburg youngster who made an impres sive local wrestling debut here some weeks ago in a match against Paavo Katonen, will be featured in the semi-final match of Don Owen's weekly mat show at the armory Saturday night. On a short leave from Fort Lewis, Franco will engage Milt Olsen. Headline attraction will be a Paci flc coast light-heavvweieht championship bout in which Jack Kiser will defend his coveted crown against the challenge of Katonen. Douglas county eraoolln? fol lowers await with interest Fran co's second -, appearance here. Against Katonen the Rosebure lad was meeting one of the most experienced men in the sport and one who also held a weight ad vantage. Franco, who has had considerable experience in the Hawaiian circuit as a soldier wrestler, is given a good chance against uisen, a former coast ti tieholdcr. Regardless of the outcome,' the semi-final is expected to be a fast and interesting bout in which modern matwork will be af Its best. . -,. . Finn May Regain Title The Klser-Katonen champion ship skirmish is expected to be a rugged affair in which the Fin nish matmaster will be getting one of his infrequent opportuni ties to regain the championship he lost to Kiser more than a year ago. Katonen won the right to the championship engagement here last Saturday night by emerging the winner in a four man elimination tourney. Two specialized holds, Riser's "skin the cat" and Katonen's "hangman's hold", arc expected to have considerable bearing on the eventual outcome. The swifter Kiser, who has the advantage of youth and agility, has been able to successfully de fend his title on three previous occasions against Katonen's chal lenge, but the Finn points out that he has lost but one decision to Kiser in the title tilt. Katon en will post a $100 forfeit to guarantee that he makes the nec essary weipht. Elton Owen will referee both matches. The first one will start at 8:30.

WILLIAMS TH' MOUMT 8-4 Beavers Defeat Stars as Rainiers Nose Out Seals (By the Associated Press) Portland and Seattle, continu ing their breakneck pace as they neared the Pacific Coast league three-quarter pole, are still sep arated by six games after both clubs won their third In a row last night. The loop-leading Beavers, main tlnine their 1inx over the Hollv wood Stars, breezed to an easy 9-3 victory, but the Rainiers had to go 11 innings before they nosed out tne san i- rancisco seals 4-3. The battle for the other two first division berths tightened as the Oakland Acorns divided a doubleheader with the San Diego Padres, dropping the curtain raiser 3-1 and taking the night cap B-o. ine split moved tne Oaks within half a game of the fourth-berth Seals. Sacramento's Solons remained two tilts ahead of Sair Francisco after losing to tne LjOs Angeles Angels 4-1. Pulford Wins His 18th "Righthander Pulford, ace of the Portland pitching staff. chalked up his 18th win of the season against eight losses as he let Hollywood down with eight hits and three tallies. The Bevos drove Marshall, the Stars' start ing hurler, off the hill with a six-run ouburst. The defeat was Hollywood s 14th straight at the hands of the Bcavors. Seattle had to come from be hind to shade the Seals 4-3. with pinch-hitter Mathcson playing the hero's role. He drove in the tying run in the first of the ninth with a sharp single, and then re peated in the 11th to send Dob bins scampering home with the winning counter. Matheson did not rejoin the Rainiers -until this week, having been anchored in a defense plant. Syl Johnson, who relieved uemoran in tne ninth, got credit for the victory. 36-Point Blessing NEW YORK, Aug. 3 (AP) Rfta Mundt, 28, has just pre sented her soldier husband with 36 points two girls and a boy. lnc healthy triplets were born Wednesday night.
