STANTON It it not necessary for sawmill operators to await devel opment of new processes in conversion of Wood waste to improve utilization practices in the opinion of Edward J. Locke, chief of forest utilization services of the Pacific Northwest Forest experiment station, U. S. Forest Service. Ample opportunity exists, he states, for production of valu able articles from slabs, edgings and common lumber now going into refuse burners or being sold at prices only alightly above production cost. A wide open field exists, ht states, in the house trailer' industry for the utilization of wood in the form of cut stock. A recent survey by the Forest Service, he reports, reveals that trailer manufacturers in only one section of the Missis sippi Valley are buying 20 million board feet of clear lumber annually and are cutting stock in their own plants. Most of them would prefer to buy cut stock. Wh'le the industry desires pine lumber, where obtainable, Douglas fir is acceptable and is being more and more widely used as the supply of pine grows increasingly short These trailer manufacturers, Locke says, would buy a very large volume of Douglas fir cut to specifications. It would be necessary to cut from dry material. Accurate machining would be required. The problem, however, is one of stand ardization rather than lack of market Any small mill, he contends, could recover a large amount of clear itema from sidings and edgings. Furthermore, in stead of selling No. 8 and other common grades at low prices, it would be possible to cut out the clears and manufacture them into specification items for the trailer plants. Not only is there a big market for cut stock in the Mid west Locke contends, but California' industrial plants offer opportunity for a large market OUT OUR WAY , By J f I AIN'T YES.

T , Ma , , , j i i i Locke suggests that small mills set up a cooperative pro gram and employ , market investigator who will search out uses for cut stock and arrange contract. Cooperator mills then could pool their resource in purchasing equipment to do th manufacturing job and furnish their waste and low grade lumber to keep the plant operating at capacity. It is obvious that Locke has a moot practical suggestion but there is not much hope that the idea will win many fol lower as long as economic conditions and theories remain unchanged. On obstacle is found in th traditional resistance of the sawmill industry to innovations. The operator who for years ha cut only dimension timbers and boards is not interested in any other manufacturing process. W sre speaking, of course, only of general practice. Some operator ar quite interested in the new trends, but they ar the exception rather than the rule. A primary handicap is found in our national tax system and economic theories. An operator in the high income bracket, and who is in a financial position to experiment with new processes, has np incentive to risk investment capital on unproven ideas. Actually, he isn't much interested in a higher rate of profit when he can keep only $10 or J20 of each $100 profit If the income surtax rate were brought down to a point where he might retain a larger percentage ot hi profit, he would be more interested in experimenta tion, would thereby create more jobs and utiliz more raw material, particularly that now being wasted. During the past few years w hsve been promoting a "soak the rich" theory of taxation. We oppose anything that will "make the rich richer." We applaud the program of "taxing away the profits." These .slogan were widely used by the New Deal .and were very effective political weapons. The New Deal put these policies into action through its tax program. Organized labor still clings to these theories and policies. But their effect 1 to curtail the investment of risk capital, prevent installation of new plants and processes which would increase employment and improve wage standards through competiton for workers, and limit the use of waste materials in development of by-products or new processes and prac tices. A more practical tax program would speed the wood waste utilisation program and advance the trend toward special ized manufacture. The change, ho.vever, would increase the number of millionaires and allow the shrewd operator to make more prrfits than at present and that, according t our present way of thinking, is a major sin.

' THE war In Palestine has many of the earmarks of an irre pressible conflict The deep feeling that underlies the Jewish side of the contro versy is obvious to anyone who has given any thought at all to what has been going on. The Jews are a hunted people In Eu rope. Nowhere is there any secur ity for them. They want a home a refuge where they can build their lives anew. Their Interna tional character, developed over the long centuries, has left in their mouths only the taste of dust and ashes. They want some place of which they can say: 'This is our HOME. Here we can live and rear our children." In Palestine, the home of their fathers, they see the possible realization of this vision. That Is a powerful and under standable and tn Its way admir able human motive. People who feel that way have something for which they are willing t? fight and If need be die. a a a TO balance the scales, let us add here a word as to the Arabs. They are basically a nomadic peo ple. Their situation Is not unlike that of our Indians, who were also a nomadic people. America was their home. Their nomadic way of life was certainly not efficient, but it was THEIRS and they liked It. They wanted to keep It. The w hite men began to priur In. The white men were superior In Intellect, in "civilization," In weapons. Wherever it came to open and sustained conflict, the white men won. The Indians tem porized for decades, but In time It became apparent to them that If the white yn CONTINUED TO COME the Indian way of life was doomed. Our Indian fighting ancestry Is still too close for us to be wholly falrmlnded. The hatreds stirred In the frontier days have not even yet fully cooled. But we have to admit that there was a lot of tragedy in our conquest of what is now the United States and a lot of Injustice. If we are even halt fair, we must admit that there were two sides to Custer's last battle. On the Indian side, it was a desperate and more or less hopeless struggle for survival of something that was precious TO THE INDIANS. Mr. Hulda K. Ty.tad Of Yoncalla Passes Away Mrs. Hulda Katie Tystad. 80, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Chas. O. Kirkelie in Yon calla Thursday, July 8, after a short illness.

In the same way the Arabs know that if the Jews keep on coming Into Palestine the jig is up for the less efficient Arab. AT will come of !? hat will WE do about It? What will RUSSIA do about It? IF there were such a thing as a printed symbol for a shrug of the shoulders, this writer would use it here. A puzzled shrug of the shoulders Is about the onl answer we can give. The Middle East, of which Palestine is a part, is one of the world's "strategic" areas. From it, modem air fleets and navies can control much of the world. It has OIL in huge quantities. You can get nasty and cynical about oil, but you can't laugh it off. Oil means too much in the modern world to be casually laughed off. For these reasons, the Jews and -the Arabs will probably not be al'owed to fight out their Irre pressible conflict to a final con clusion.

There is o com mon misconception that for better ;welry and reliable professional opinion it is necessary to shop at larger stores in big cities. This some belief leads people to patronize out-of-town representatives and house to house can vossers who represent stores in these larger cities. These canvassers do not offer any merchandise that is superior tc that offered here in Roseburg. In order to determine whether this is true or not we mode a survey based upon one major division of the jewelry business . . . precious gems. This sur vey covered nine of the largest jewelry stores in Oregon's largest cities. The survey was made by an impartial statistical agency. A professional shopper visited these nine stores showing to the jewelers three stones: a 'j-carat yellow toper, a !6-corat green diamond ond a 3 carat yellow green chryso 'beryl. Before the survey was mode these stones were identified as named above by two procticing Certified Gemologists of the American Gem Society. I Choosing these nine stores the professional shopper asked eoch jeweler to identify these stones for her, whatever the cost. All of the stones are gems whir!i ony jeweler might be expected to handle during normal course of busi ness. The diamond and topaz art the most common. I Here are the results: Concerning the diamonrJ Two jewelers colled it o green d'omond, two called it a yellow diamond of poor quality, one stated it was a dia mond but not of gem quality, one said it wos a diomond of unusuol color ond of considerable volue, one said it wos a sopphire, ond three identified it simply as a diamond. (This diomond because of its yellow green colors is worth about 15 more than fine white diomond of similar perfection.) The Topaz Two said it was o topaz, four would not comment without testing, one said it wos a sapphire, on did not know, one colled if a tourmaline topoz. (Tourmaline is on altogether different gem). And the Chrysoberyl Five hod no comment without further tests, one said it wos a golden sapphire, two said it wos a sopphire ond on colled it o peridot but reserved opinion until further tests. One of the jewelers interviewed was a Registered Jeweler of the Ameri can Gem' Society. His score was perfect save for the Chrysoberyl which he wished to test further, I IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE Knudtsons hav always endeavqred to keep abreast in aiding their custo mers in the choice of jewelry, watches, silver and gems. Knudtsons hav the only Certified Gemologist in Oregon ond one of the six Certified Watchmak er in the state. All members of the firm or students of a specialty: jewelry designing, engraving, watchmaking, and silver ond gold' manufacturing. Ex perience in buying has led to the stocking of only superior merchandise. PROGRESSIVE In addition, Knudtsons are equipped with the most modern ond exten sive technical equipment available so customers may determine to their own satisfaction the quality of gems or jewelry. I Anyone interested in more details concerning the survey described here may call at Knudtsons for particulars.
