INFLATION. More inflnllon can lead to ruin as In China. IF price control would work, In any time other than war, we ought to restore It. The condi tion we face is serious. It is more serious 'nan any similar condi tion we have ever laced. It was difficult enough to bring up production fast enough to swamp rising prices even when we were concerned only with ourselves. Now thnt we have to produce f6r a large part of the rest of the world, along with our selves, It is Immensely MOKE difficult. BUT we have no good reason to believe that price control by law In time of peace will work. It isn't working in Britain, whose situation Is far more alarming than ours. The British have re tained their wartime controls over prices, and in addition have added some new ones. But they aren't getting the pro duction they need. And the Bri tish people are more docile than our people. They ob;y laws mure readily than we. They could get away with it where we can't. But they aren't getting away with if. Their experience certainly doesn't tempt us to try it. AT any rate, the talk of price control that is beginning to be heard does bring home to us the seriousness of the situation we face. Maybe it will help to convince us that Ihese are really days for hard work and saving. THERE Is n III lie tale from St. Louis that shows how the scarcity system works. The St. Louis Cardinals and the league leading Brooklyn Dodgers have an exciting three-game series coming up. There aren't tickets enough to go around. So specula tors are said to he asking as high as $:i0 for a pair of reserved seals whose box office price Is $.').:0. ... , VI IE city of St. Louis or the state 1 I of Missouri could forbid such gouging by law. But if that were done, people who were willing to pay S"rt for a pair of seats would meet people who were willing to SELL them at thai price out In a dark alk-y somewhere and the transaction would be consummat ed, law or no law. We've seen that happen over and over In America. We'll con tinue to see it whenever buyers are more numerous than sellers and money (whatever Its real value) Is reasonably plentiful. That's why price control In time of peace doesn't work. Russell Malcolm, Former Roseburg Resident, Dies Russell Abe Malcolm, 4't resi dent of O.'ikridgo and an employee of the Southern Pacific ltnlniad. died Sept. 10 in the S. P.

Reduction of Logging Fatalities Board's Aim Countv Commissioner I.. V. Beckley'and W. J. Adair of the Roseburg Lumber Co. attended the log safetv conference conduct ed at Salem Thursday and Friday by the Accident Prevention Divi sion of the State Industrial Acci dent Commission. The commission is now working on a long-range program aimed at the reduction of lu Ina-Htic. unloading and hauling oi log by OFF FOR THE COAST By CHARLES We've never quite been able things. We suppose if there wasn't something a little "pecu liar" in most of us there would be no need for psychiatrists. IJul along about this time of the year, when the leaves begin to turn, and the fog clings to the lowlands in early morning, and a smell of rain is in the air, we feel the compulsion to go salmon fishing. We recall, many years ago, that we caught a legal limit of salmon once. Before and since we've fished, and fished, and fished, usually wifh nothing to show for our efforts except a few scrap fish, perhaps a small jack salmon,. and occasionally very occasionally a single silverside or Chi nook salmon as a reward for a week or more of exhausting "sport." But here we go again. We'll spend next week along the Oregon coast cramped for hours on end in a small boat, in haling outboard motor fumes, while we lug assorted hard ware through miles of saltwater. And while we alternately roast or freeze, or become soaked if it rains, and our eyes become blurred from constant reflections on the water, and we suffer from wind and sunburn, we'll love every minute of it fish or no fish. Nor will we be alone in our daffiness. We'll probably have trouble maneuvering our boat through traffic at some of the spots we'll fish during our week's vacation. Each year we try to spend at least one week enjoying a fall salhion fishing trip. We usually make headquarters at Newport, where we are joined by a brother who resides at Toledo. The party will include our father, a retired railroad engineer, who makes his home in Roseburg, and upon whom "threescore years and ten" sit very lightly. Dad taught his two sons to fish as soon as they were old enough to hold a willow pole, and although his sons have local reputations as "experts," dad can, still'give them lessons in catching fish oven though he may not throw quite as "nice" a fly as either of his two "boys." However, it's dad's hook that gets the most fish. We still have hopes we'll beat him someday. So, with dad and our brother, we'll prowl around Yaquina bay and probably drop in at Alsea and Siletz bays in the hope of picking up a few salmon. There is a distinction between "hope" and "expectancy," although the two words are often used synonymously. We hope to catch fish but we expect we'll have about the same kind of luck we've had for the last four or five years. Fish will be striking both before and after our visit but not while we're there. We have been informed there is a huge run of salmon off our bays waiting for that mystic something that starts them tip freshwater streams to the spawning beds. Salmon have been congregating for weeks. They remain just outside the bays in grent schools, where they are preyed upon by com mercial trawlers who needlessly kill thousands of young im mature fish. Soon, wo hope, something will bo done to force trawlers away from those schools. But adult salmon, while waiting for the final urge of the migration instinct, that will Up their parent streams, often out of the larger bays to feed upon small fish. It is during this period that our bays furnish wonderful sport, if you are one of those nuts willing to tolerate all sorts of discomfort to find reward in shaking perch, bullheads, and scrap fish off your hook, while hoping that a salmon may lake a notion to strike. Occasionally you hit the jackpot and from then on you're a hopeless addict. It's worse than dope. You'll go back year after year hoping against more. We've got our fingers crossed! trucks. -T.aJaBa I lie lumber Industry ol uio stale Is charged with 25 per cent if Ihe lor.rl) accident claims tiled with the commission during the oast 30 months, hut represents only 12 per cent of the total man work hours.

Winston left Tuesday for Port-; land with Pilot George Felt in a Stinson Reliance. Dependents TcEd of Social In view of the frequency of dealhs of World War II veterans reported in the daily press, the OreRon Department of Veterans' Affairs today reminded surviving widows and dependent parents of social security benefits they may receive by virtue of the deceased's time spent in active service. Amendments to the social secur ity act of Aug. 10, 191(5. provide that "any veteran of World War II who dies within three years after his discharge is automat ically fully insured under the old ago and survivors insurance pro gram," provided: 1. He served at least 90 days between Sept. Hi, 19-10, and the formal termination of the war t July 25, 1917), and his discharge was not under dishonorable con ditions. 2. Or he served in that same period for less than 90 days and was discharged for a service in curred aggravated disability or injury. "The effect of this amendment is to assure monthly income pay ments to the widow with minor children, or the dependent par ents, of any World War II vet eran who is discharged without dishonor and who dies within three years after his discharge," James E. Peebles, Portland field office manager for the Social Se curity Administration, told Vet erans' Affairs officials. But he cautioned that widows without minor children are entitled to a lumpsum payment only, unless they are G5 or more years of age. This act applies even though the deceased veteran may never have worked in employment covered hy the social security act, Peebles declared. Me pointed out, however, that wher- death was due to service incurred disability, the Veterans Administration's comiensation or pension payments to the bene ficiary will rule out application of Ihe social security benefits. 'Put a point to be remember ed." he advised, "is that although the survivors may be receiving VA pension or comjcnsation, they may bo eligible for social security benefits also, if the veteran hail an insured status earned in the ordinary manner." Survivors were advised to con tact cither their county veterans' service officers, the Department of Veterans' Affairs at Salem or Portland, or to get in touch di rectly with the Social Security Administration field office for this area, located at the Eugene Postoffice building.

Douglas Property, Climate Attract Trend In real estate Is com pletely turning to persons of Mid west and Eastern states, who are coming to this section to build homes and farm, according to the Strout Realty office. One party, the agency reports, has notified the local office thai he is now organizing a colony of persons who will come to Douglas County for farming, while a tele phone call was received yesterday from a party in Illinois who said he plans to sell out his business and arrive here: next week. According to a national bulletin distributed by the agency, Doug las County sems to be in high favor of the many sites being in vestigated by eastern persons, with many people sending In in quiries specifying information concerning this country. This has been brought about greatly, the agency believes, by people who have heard of Ore gon's climate from ex-servicemen and through publicity pamphlets, and a desire to get away from hte coming winter in the East. Purchase of S. W. Turpin's 100 acre farm east of Yoncalla was made this week by Kermit and Charles Miller; formerly of San Leandro, Calif., the Strout Agency reported.
