The News-Review is offering a new vacation season service. This will include sunset and sunrise time daily, and a weekly tide table, together with long-range ' weekend weather forecasting for the mountains and coast. We have had many requests for sunrise and sunset time. It is unlawful to fish at any time between one hour after sunset and one hour before sunrise, except for catfish. Sports anglers should keep informed on the sunrise and sunset hours to stay within the law. Sunrise and sunset also govern proper times to raise and lower flags at public buildings. Official sunrise and sunset time henceforth will be pub lished in The Newt-Review daily in the front page "ear" which also contains the weather forecast. Mr. Hill is originator locally of the plan for the weekly tide table and weekend weather forecast, which The News. Review is pleased to obtain. Many inland residents are going to the coast for fishing, clamming and general recreation. Tide stage is important in all planning of beach and tidewater recreation. News Review readers, we believe, will find the information very helpful. The long-range weather forecast will be given for both the beach and mountains and will be compiled from all avail able information at the time it is issued. W. Likt To Say: "Wt Told You So." Most people will say: "I hate to say I told you so" We ' don't "hate" it a bit. Jn fact we love it. We've been boring our readers with repeated claims re garding the recreation possibilities of the Umpqua River, with special emphasis on the tidewater section. Now come reports from Reedsport that accommodations are not avail able for all the many sports anglers flocking into that area. News of record catches of striped bass have spread the length of the Coast. Word has leaked out that excellent salmon fishing is to be had at Winchester Hay and outside the bar. Anglers are flocking in to take a turn at the sport. The Lower Umpqua region will reap a harvest of dollars if full advantage is taken of the recreational resource. Few people realize the income being produced on the Upper Umpqua by the release of 52,000 year-old Utah Kain bow trout from the Rock Creek hatchery. We know from personal experience that these fish are producing money, because we've spent altogether too much already for tackle, but will continue to spend if we can only get more oppor tunity to fish. Anyone who would like to inform himself first hand need only travel the North Umpqua Road and observe that virtu ally every camping spot is occupied ; that turnouts are filled every morning and evening with cars parked by fishermen ; that the river is lined with cars and trailers bearing foreign license plaies. But our best opportunity for recreational income lies in the fall fishing. The Umpqua River has a huge run of silver salmon, mixed with fairly large run of fall chinook sal mon. With protection afforded from nets, these runs should increase rather than decrease, despite intensive sports fish ing. When the abundance of fish once becomes known to sports anglers and the reputation of the Umpqua established as a fall snorts stream, we may be sure thHt we will not lack for tourist business, long after the normal vacation season. Better Organization Needed llefore we can realiie the fullest possible benefits from our recreational resource, however, we must have organiza tion. We should have associations of licensed guides for both the lower and upper river areas. These associations should have paid publicity men and efficient advertising cam paigns. Needs of tourist and local fishermen for boats, cabins, gear, etc., should be studied and arrangements made to fill those requirements. At the same time we need stronger conservation organi zations. Our rod and gun clubs, or sportsmen's club should be brought together to work as councils, and the assistance of every person in the county enlisted to promote conserva tion. Conservation does not include fish and game alone, but Involves as well protection of topsoil, watersheds, forests, ground cover, etc. But conservation of soil, water and forest, leads directly to more fish and game, through assistance given to natural propagation. Our current conservation ef forts, however, are about as effective as tryin to tunnel a mountain with an ice pick. Editorial Commenf From The Oregon Press Lusurias on Farm (Salem Sltacsmanl Before the war the city folks used to kind of make fun of the farmer. In a good natured way. They thought his outdoor plumb. Ing, underground water-cooled vegetable bins and high-topped Model T were quaint. And they didn't think much about their share of the blame for his low standard of living. Today the tables ate definitely turned.

That's because the farmer only has to sell four head of cattle to buv that smart roadster.

Martin Jfj jZ-' Over chocolate and cookies, Mn. B , our boys' teacher In grade school, told me why she j had come: "Ernest just can't read! I give up! I'll have to de mote him and," she added re gretfully, "he's so bright, too. I can't understand it!" Remembering certain chance remark of the young man in question about his reading-class troubles, I remarked, "It la odd you have so much trouble with him. He reads so well at home." Her blue eyes were Incredulous. She Just couldn't believe her ears. "Let me try something?" I asked '.and you promise not to say a word (or a few minutes?" Of course! She would try any thing. She didn't want to demote the youngster. But goodness!" he looks at cat and calls it dog! He sounds as if he just grabs the first word that floats through his mind." In came the young man. It was plain he liked his redheaded teacher. And she really did like him the took his first 'plane ride with her later). In the Day's News (Continued From Page One) with politics. IF the civil rights business is to I be chosen as the vehicle for this strategy. II is at least a fit ting choice. So far as the poli ticians are concerned, there isn't an ounce of sincerity to the ton In the whole "civil rights" pro gram, which Is bring used now, as II has been through the years of the past, merely as a srheme to Influence colored volrs. We'll never grt genuine civil rights that way. WE ought to keep it clear In our minds that this political cam paign In America Is being waged against the backdrop of a tra gically serious Interna'ional situa tion. Russian-controlled newspapers In Berlin tell the Germans that President Truman's message to Congress "proves that the United States Is faced with ECONOMIC COLLAPSE." They add that Mr. Truman's plea tor anti-Inflation laws means that the I'nlted States cannot support the European re covery program. That, obviously. Is an effort to shake the confidence of Western Europeans, especially Germans. In the ability of the I'nlied States to help out In getting Europe bark on Its feet. It is purely an effort to sabo tage what He are trying to ac complish. The political situation, as It Is developing here at home, Is HELPING Moscow to tear down confidence In the ability of the United States to finish what It has started. THERE Is anothrr danger. It Is this: MAYBE THE RUSSIANS BE LIEVE THIS BUNK THEY ARE PEDDLING. a THESE Communist big shots In the Kremlin are a curious tribe. They don't seem to be too realistic -in spite of all the talk of Russia's stark realism. There Is good evidence that they be lieve their agents In America only when these agents tell them what "Son," I said as casually as I could, "Mrs. B wants to hear you read out of the big Bible. Anything you like." I had learned to read in the big Bible myself. It was always open on a stand Daddy had made the right height for the boys. They often turned Its pages. It happened to be open to the Sermon on the Mount: although he was oddly self-conscious, and shot many a sldewise look at his teacher, he obeyed. "Well," she said, "he probably knows that by heart and he's reading it from memory. He does that in school!" We opened the Book to the Old Testament where the going was hard. Ernest, plowed steadily through it, stopping at any un familiar word, "breaking It up Into pieces" (syllables) and try ing the accent here or there. The teacher looked Interested. Thoughtful. "I see . . ." she said, "at school his mind Is on the other children who wave their hands to say the word If he hesi tates. I think I'll try a new way with my reading class." they WANT TO HEAR.

Williams Food Prices Drop, Industrial Stuff, Wages go Higher (By The Aaiorlaled Praui The nation's price picture was marked today by declines in food costs but new increases in in dustrial materials and products and new wage boosts affecting tens of thousands of workers. Resistance by housewives to higher prices was credited with causing a number of meat price cuts. Leading markets at Rochester, N. Y., marked down better cuts of meat six to 10 cents a pound. And in Chicago, the A. and P. food stores announced cuts of 21 cents a pound in steak prices. Dun and Bradstreet reported Its wholesale food price index fell 12 cents to $7.18 this week, down 12 cents from last week and 18 cents from the alltime high of $7.36 two weeks ago. But the decline still represents less than two and one-half per cent in the sum total of whole sale prices of 31 pounds in gen eral use. Some food prices con tinued to go up including flour, eggs, peas, potatoes and hogs. On the other side of the pic ture were increases of two cents a pound in lead and three cents in zinc both widely used in mak ing consumer goods and an American Tobacco Co. price boost expected to make its cigarete cost one cent more a pack at retail. Philip Morris and Co., and Reynolds followed suit with a price increase on its name brand cigarettes. The zinc and lead Increases fol lowed by less than a week a steel price boost of $2 to $12 a ton. New wage boosts included boosts of 10 to 13 cents an hour tor more than 20,000 New York state truck drivers. 13 cents an hour for 15.000 steel workers in Massachusetts, New York and Colorado, and 10 cents an hour for an unspecified number of air- ' Promising to prosecute groups found to be getting to gether to raise food, clothing or housing prices.

Temporary Boost On Freight Rates Made Permanent WASHINGTON. July 30.-W) The Interstate Commerce Com mission today granted long-term freight rate increases to the rail roads and water carriers at ap proximately the present tempo rary rate levels. The commission's action makes the temporary 25 per cent "em ergency increases which have been granted since last October a regular rate order. However, the ICC said it had adjusted these temporary increas es upward from some items and downward for some others, with the net result that the railroads will receive about $65,200,000 a year more revenue than they now get. Among other changes, the tem porary 10 per cent advance in charges for protective service such as refrigeration and heating was made 15 per cent for the future. The new rates may be made eflective on 15 days notice to the public. The authority applies equally to the railroads, water carriers, and freight forwarders those as sembling small quantity freight for movements in carloads. The railroads received their last regular freight rate Increase Jan. 1, 1947. when the ICC auth orized an average 17 per cent advance. But the carriers returned to the commission in July, 1947, to assert that mounting postwar operating costs had outrun the new revenues thus realized, and to request a further 17 per cent hike. Before this petition was called for hearing in September, it was amended to request a 27 Instead of 17 per cent increase. And then when new wage Increases were given the railroad brotherhoods, the companies further upped the request to a 30 per cent average for the country as a w hole. The Commission held extended hearings in Washington and aft erward took testimony at region al hearings in all parts of the country. Hawaii Children Send Funds to Aid Flooded Schools SALEM, Ore.. July 30. (.T) A check for $3,108, to be used to benefit schools damaged In Oregon's flood, was received here yesterday from the school chil dren of Hawaii. The check was sent by Ha waii's acting governor, Oren E. Long, to Governor John H. Hall, who turned the money over to the State Department of Educa tion. Long explained the money was collected primarily to replace lost school hooks, hut he said its use is not restricted to that purpose. He aded that a check also was being sent to Governor Wall gren of Washington to help flood stricken schools of that state. Long said a total of $5,301 has been sent bv Hawaiians to their Northwest Flood Relief Commit tiee. of which $4,158 was contri buted for school purposes. "I hope that these contributions express to you the warm aloha of the people of Hawiall for their fellow Americans of Ore gon," Long wrote. Rest Putnam, state superintend ent of public Instruction, said he has not made plans on how to dispose of the money. But he said all of it would be used as request ed by the Hawaiian governor.
