He said tney probably would be tried for espionage. In Warsaw the Polish govern ment charged the arrest of the Poles was in retaliation lor the arrest by Polish police of Andre Simon Robineau, a secretary of the French consulate at Szczecin (Stettin), on espionage charges. The French spokesman denied that the arrests in France were retaliatory, but he said the Poles prooaoiv win oe Drought to trial shortly after the trial of Robin eau in Warsaw."

Central Oregon Free Of Rats, Report Of U. S. Public Health Service Agent ' REDMOND UP) There are no rats in central Oregon. That perplexes Milton H. Beuhler Jr., rodent control expert of the U. S. public health service assigned to the Oregon State Department of Health. By all the rules, says Beuhler," there ought to be rats the Norway or sewer rats and the Aiexsndrlan or roof nr Murk rats. Neither climate nor location offers a reason. But Beuhler says he combed Redmond, Prineville, Bend and Madras without' finding a trace of a rat. He looked in warehous es, restaurants, store buildings and city dumps. He searched for tracks along dusty walls, gnawed wood or sacks and all the other indications of the pre sence of rats. He couldn't find any. There was a report, he said, of a rat arriving In Redmond in a carload of feed but it was kill ed. So were two rats reported found in a railroad car at Bend. He's satisfied there just aren't any. But he can't imagine why and he can think of lots of ways they can get here. Increased truck traffic over the newly opened Warm SDrings high way holds a threat. They could come in loads of baled hay, ma chinery crates, shipments of household furniture and open vegetble crates. If a pair should show up, he said, "you could afford to spend a lot more than $500 apiece to kill just one pair. You'd be justi fied in arming your whole Cham ber of Commerce with clubs and starting a hunt until you found them." Central Oregon has saved $350,000 to $400,000 a year by not having rats, Beuhler said. How Damage Is Figured Rigure seem high? This is the way he gets It: an Incidence of 10 rats per person is considered a mild infestation; each rat does damage of about $1 a year; Cen tral Oregon has a population of 35,000 to 40,000. Thus a normal distribution would give Central Oregon a rat population of 350,. 000 to 400,000. Rates chew on things they have to keep their teeth worn down and cause a lot of their damage that way. Even worse, perhaps, is the disease they spread: bubonic plague, diarrhea and a form of yellow jaundice called Weil's disease. People In Central Oregon who see a rat even though they may be confusing it with a pack rat should notify the tri-county snnl tarian, A. W. Westfall, immedi--ately, Beuhler said. That way, maybe, this area can remain rat free and continue to save its $350,000 to $400,000 each year. FOOD SALE December 3rd. from 0 a. m. to 2 p. m., t Jack rariM. 130 N.
