That is what Mr. Byrnes is trying to do now. THE shooting of four fJegroes in Georgia the other day is a terrible thing both In Itself and in the ammunition it gives to Russia In her campaign to prove that America is Insincere in her professed ideals. Still, along with Bilbo and Tal madge, it goes to show that the race problem in this country can't be solved by the kind of po litical hocus-pocus we have been employing in the past. The solution will have to come out of the slow process of educa tion, enlightenment and tolerance of the rights of others. ONE of our national scandals has been the more or less an nual rumpus in Washington Dver the anti lynchlng law which for years has been used by con scienceless demagogues as a sounding board for appealing to INTOLERANT voters. You can't solve race problems Ihat way. SPEAKING of politics, move ments are under way In vari ous parts of the country to or ganize consumers Into leagues, committees, etc.. to fight for OPA as a sacred cause. If you are wise, you will stay out of such organizations which arc being promoted largely be cause of the ease with which they can be used as a tall to political kites. If the price of luxuries, semi luxuries end non-necessities of life gets too steep for you, DO WITHOUT. (It won't be much harder to do without because the price is too high than It has been to do without because they are not available.) Doing without because the price Is too high Is a sound and logical working out of the law of supply and demand. It always has been effective In bringing demand into balance with supply, and it al ways will be. ALONG that line, Iho Depart ment of Agriculture's pro duction and marketing adminis tration reports that wheat prices have been declining sharply on the Portland market throughout the past week. The principal factors In the de cline, the report says, have been: 1. Satisfaction of the feed trade's demands. 2. Unwillingness of millers to compete for grain nt the HIGH ER PRICES. 2. Pressure of now crop wheat (the new wheat crop Is expected to break ALL records). THUS we see the law of supply I and demand in actual opera tion and WORKING. - OPA or no OPA, prices will come down whenever more of any commodity is being offered lor sale than buyers are willing to take at the offered price. Ship Laden With Relief Food Sunk'in Collision NEW YORK, Aug. i.-41P) The new 8,258-ton freighter, Am erican Farmer, carrying six pas sengers, 51 crew members and 8.500 tons of vitally needed food lor Great Uritaln, sanK last night about 400 miles west of the bug Ilsh coast after being in collision with the cattle ship William J. Riddle. The Riddle radioed that she had rescued all aboard the farmer. A London dispatch said none was injured. The U. S. Lines said the ship carried 7.611 hags of mall which was presumed lost. -Her cargo In cluded 5.500 tons of buckwheat and 3,000 tons of mixed foods In cluding evaporated and dried Milk, dried eggs and lard. j HIGHER CLOTHING COSTS By CHARLES V. STANTON The OPA has authorize.4 a general price increase of J.1 per cent on men's and boys' shirts, shorts and pajamas, with an extra 10 per cent on dress shirts and boys' sport shirts. Additional price hikes of 15 to 20 per cent are anticipated on other clothing Can you imagine the furore which would have resulted had clothing prices been upped 11 per cent during the OPA holiday? Press services would have "soaring" prices. OPA propagandists would have wrung their hands in holy horror. izations, buyers' councils would have organized picket lines, demonstrations and boycotts. have paraded in barrels to secure cheesecake publicity. Pub lic resistance to increased clothing prices would have swept the country. But now that the OPA has the new prices probably will We have no doubt that higher prices are necessary in the clothing industry. The cost of raw material is up, workers in the garment industry, notoriously underpaid in past years, have received justifiable wage increases, while OPA ceilings have held prices to a point where many types of clothing, particularly in the lower price range, were forced out of manufacture, causing inferior quality, subtetN fuge and even black market tain even limited production. the line" is not justified when type of garment desired, even another type of garment in a But we are not as much in the frame of public mind, which permits us to kid our selves into the belief we are being afforded protection, when, in fact, we are being gloriously hoodwinked in a game of political strategy, and made to like it through propaganda based on fright psychology. Puring the OPA holiday, propagandists strove mightily to create mass hysteria. Price increases, many of which merely offset withdrawn subsidies, particularly on dairy products and meat, were used to foment fear of galloping inflation. But in spite of propagandists, aided and abetted by communistic organizations, the effort to incite mass hysteria failed. Instead, buyers' resistance quickly developed. This re sistance, intolerant in many respects, succeeded in breaking some prices even below justifiable levels. It would have gained order, discipline, and understanding in time, and would have served as an effective brake on inflation, while, at the same time, production would haye been stimulated. But now we are back under OPA, which, in one of its first moves, .has authorized increased clothing prices, an action which if attempted during the holiday would have created a storm of public protest, even though higher prices were justified.' It is our opinion that living costs will be higher under OPA, hamstrung though it may be by the'erazyquilt authori zation under which it now operates, than had we scrapped price controls once and for all. Comment on Congress Highlights ofJWeekly Proceedings Related" by Analyticai'Lawmaker HARRIS ELLSWORTH Congressman, r-ourth Dragon District NEW OPA LAW Considerable space has been taken In my weekly letter in the discussion of OPA legislation. This wil be my last comment on the subject for quite some time. The price control holiday, brought about by the President's veto, is ended. OPA goes back Into action. The principal difference be tween the new law and the one which expired June 3l)lh is that there will be a suier-loard of three with power over the admin istrator. Tho record of the past several years proves that our dif ficulties have only been Increased and confusion achieved by the ad ministrative practice of setting up a new board, committee or single executive on top of other authori ties. There Is no reason I can think of to believe that this prac tice, which has not been success ful before, will work this time. The OPA bill vetoed by the Presi dent was a reasonable and work able piece of legislation. I do not think the new OPA bill is, but BOWLING SCORES (.al bowlers camo out of their summer slump Monday night with five members of the Moll's Doubles League hitting above the 500 mark.

SESSION ENDING This session of Congress is about to end. In fact, it may have ended by the time these words appear In print. It has been a long and difficult session. The transition of our country from war lo peace has all of the dlflcultles and more than the de velopment of a peaceful country into a winning fighting machine. Ilio diflcultles of the transition to peace are the more complex, because this transition is without the appealing influence of the urgency of war. Quite possibly mistakes have been made by Con gress, hut It Is my observation that sincere effort and hard work have been devoted to the many dllflcult problems. HOME SOON I shall leave for Oregon shortly after the first of August and hope to spend several months in my congressional district. This therefore, is my last weekly letter for this session of Congress. : i Morris 153 1W l;,-37 1 j Pllffer 109 IM IKS -511 Totals 37& 379 084 1142 j 50 90 ,M) - IMi ! Bate ill 29 10,1-343 1 , M.

Leo saw his latest bit of stra tegy backfire on him yesterday as the second place St. Louis Cardinals belabored Southpaw Batten and two successors lor 15 hits and a 10-3 victory over the National League leaders. The Card triumph evened the "crucial" series between the two contenders and once again the Brooks iead stands at two and a half games with the rubber con test to be played today. Before the Important three game tussle, Duroeher announced he would switch from his original pitching nominee, Hatten, to lylel ton, a non-winner up to then, to work the opener If Eddie Dyer's selection was Pollet, the Card's ace. Leo's luck appeared more pro nounced than ever when Melton, having one of his rare good days. outpitched Pollet Tuesday night and with Hatten, fully rested, on tap, the experts were ready to award Duroeher another "E for efficiency. So what happened? Hatten got his ears pinned back, and Murry Dickson, recently elevated from rellei roles, new tne Brooks at bay while the Red Birds pounded out their biggest hit total In four weeks. Feller Humbles Botox The Card-Dodger tussle partly overshadowed Bobby Feller's scintillating one-hit pitching ex hibition against the Boston Red Sox as he registered his 20th victory by twirling the Cleveland Indians to a 41 victory. The triumph gave Feller an other line in the record books as it tied Abbie Joss Major League standard of seven one-hit games. Joss also hurled for the Indians. Oddly enough, it was Bobby Doerr, who once before on May 25, 1939, spoiled Feller's bid for a no-hitter, who got Boston's only hit, a single in the second inning. Feller already owns two no-hlt- ters. The fireball king fanned nine to Increase his season total lo 239. Detroit Displaces Yanks The Detroit Tigers replaced the New York Yankees as Boston's closest rival by defeating the Bronxiles 6-0 to wrest second place from their victims by one percentage point. Passeau, recuperating from an ailing back which had sidelined him for almost two weeks, Itched the third place Chicago lubs to an 8-1 victory over the New York Giants. A triple by Connie Ryan scored Fernandez from first base wit! the winning run in the ninth in ning as tho Boston Braves edged out the cellar-dwelling Pittsburgh Pirates a-l. . Afler dropping six straight In Shlbe Park, the Cincinnati Red9 turned anout and downed tna Philadelphia Phillies twice, 4-3 and 2-0, the opener in the lltH inning. 1 Helped By bod Kennedy fourth home run, the Chicago White Sox scored three times m the ninth inning to come from behind' and defeat the Philadel' phia Athletics 3-2. Four hits and an error produced four runs in the eighth inning for the St. Louis Browns, enough to beat the Washington Senators 6-2. Nelson Potter yielded six hits to earn his seventh success. Seals Again Down Oaks, Bolstering Coast Loop Lead (My the Associated Press) The San Francisco Seals today hopefully ogled the Pacific Coast League pennant after their sec ond successive blasting of the suddenly punchless Oakland Acorns. By humiliating the Acorns 9-2 last night, the Seals grabbed a three-game advantage over the Oaklanders in the flag race. Melton chalked up his 16th vic tory for the Seals against eight losses, although ho was removed in the sixth inning with an elbow pain. Matthewson finished, and between the two the Acorns cot seven hits, while San Francisco batsmen pounded Speer for 12. Third ranking Los Angeles' shut out the Hollywood Stars 2-0 for a lead of two games to none In their series.

The' last ulace Seattle Rainier eked out a 7-6 victory over the Portland Beavers, their second in a row. . Novikoff accounted for two Rainier runs on a homer be. hind White's single In the fifth inning. Kahle's two-run double hi the seventh frame climaxed a four-run attack. Escobar drove in three Portland markers with as many hits.
