o 2 The NewlUlview, Hoieburg, Ore, Wed., Augurt 1, H51 Season's Battle With Poisonous Weed Finished This year's fight by the county against the poisonous tansy rag wort weed is winding up today, Fred Kitchen, weed contiol inspec tor, said Tuesday. Further spraying against the noxious weed this season was use less, Kitchen decided, because the weeds are turning to seed. "What I've sprayed I've killed I'm sure of that," Kitchen said, ad mitting that activities of the county crew was confined to northern Douglas county. An estimated 150 to 200 acres of the weed, fatal to Mary Lucy Lambert Diet At Home Of Daughter Mary Lucy Lambert, 70, died Tuesday, July 31, after a snort illness. She was born Oct. 1, 1880, in Minnesota and came to Rose burg a year ago to make her home with her daughter, Mrs. John Anderson, on the Newton Creek road. She was a member of the Methodist church. Surviving are six daughters: Mrs. Emma Anderson, Roseburg; Mrs. Ruth Pokwinski, Everett, Wash.; Mrs. George Rau, Red mond; Mrs. James Leathers, Cleveland, Ohio; Mrs. Frank Konz, Staples, Minn.; Mrs. Henry Mos tron, Hackcnsack, Minn.; two sons, Fred and Charles Lambert, both of Nashwauk, Minn.; 22 grandcnil horses and cattle, have been; drcn and five great-grandchildren sprayed since the work was started June 18. Most patches of the weed have been found in the northern part of Douglas county, especially in the Smith river area. Traces have been found south of Roseburg, al though the area to the south has not thoroughly checked yet, Kitchen said. The county, the agricultural agent's office and landowners in the northern section have been working to eradicate tansy rag wort. Next year Kitchen hopes to be gin spraying operations in March or April and continue through the beginning of Ihe summer. Tansy, sometimes called stink ing willie or staggcrwort, was first seen in the county some 12 to IS years ago, according to J. Roland Parker, county agricultural agent. It has recently reached dangerous proportions in the northern part of the county. The tansy plant lives two years as a rule, turning to seed the sec ond year. During May and June of the second year it grows to one-and-one-half to four feet tall and blooms into golden yellow daisy-like blossoms. HALL INCORPORATED .

The Office of Housing Ex pediter, now armed wilh stronger rent control powers, disappeared as such. Mr. Truman ordered its main portions transferred to Eric Johnston's Plconomic Stabilization agency. Reborn as the "Office of Rent Stabilization," OHE will function under ESA as an office parallel to OPS and the wage board. There was no sign Mr. Truman would displace its head, Tighe Woods. 5. OPS poured out a dozen ad ditional price orders, many con taining rollbacks but having small impact on living costs, They af fected such materials as rubber products, reclaimed rubber, brass and copper scrap, lubricating oils and greases.

Two Revisions Urged OPS Director DiSalle reportedly has urged Mr. Truman to call for immediate revision of at least two sections of the law: First, the ban on livestock slaughtering quotas. Bills already have been introduced to revive this authority. Second, the so-called "Capehart amendment' which while allow ing rollbacks on non-farm items to pre-Korea levels requires OPS to recognize increases in costs of labor, materials and business "overhead" up to July 26. Senator Capehart (R-lnd) backed the amendment. In many of ilj non-price i peels, the new law meets most administration demands. It pre serves intact the powers to al locate materials and restrict civil ian production; it keeps wage con trol very much unchanged; it per mits subsidies to encourage out put of non-farm commodities by high-cost producers. On the other hand it relaxed credit controls, giving auto buyers 18 months to pay for cars and cut ting Ihe down payment on most household appliances to 15 percent, instead of 25 percent. Truman Foresees Wo The scorching statement with which Mr. Truman accompanied his "reluctant" signature ticked off, clause by clause, the portions he did not like. It bans rollbacks deeper than the ten percent already ordered on beef, he said, and makes "effec tive rollbacks on other cost-of-living commodities practically i m possible." It will roll price ceilings to "heights we cannot yet foresee," because even after the specified levels are reached "we may not be able to keep them from going still higher." Mr. Truman said the Butler Hope amendment, wiping out con trols on the number of cattle each slaughterer may kill, will encour age "the return of black markets." The Capehart amendment, let ting prices reflect cost increases not previously recognized, he said, "is like a bull-dozer, crashing aim lessly through existing pricing for mulas, leaving havoc in its wake." "If we are to prevent the weak ening of our economy, we . must change these provisions and others just as bad," the President said, addint: "As soon as the executive agen cies can complete their study, I intend to ure the Congress to re vise and strengthen this law, point by point, to give us the tools we i need to fight inflation." Oakland Pastor Talks On Juvenile Delinquency The problem of combatting juve nile delinquency in small commu nities which cannot provide suf ficient outlet for youth was dis cussed by Phil Hampe, summer pastor at Oakland, in a talk before the Roseburg Kiwanit club Tues day noon. "Our delinquents become your delinquents," said Hampe, refer ring to youths of small commu nities in general who seek amuse ment in the larger towns, and often cause trouble there. He blamed, in part, easy transportation. It seems, he said, that slum areas, which used to be found in the center of towns, are now found to a -large degree in the country, where small homes often provide shelter for large families, yet fail to provide amusemen for the chil dren who often become delin quents. Hampe priased such programs as peewee baseball and urged co operation of local civic clubs in attemting to get something of that nature started in his community. Four-year perfect attendance pins were presented by President J. E. Slattery to Maruice New land, Glenn Wimberly, Earl Plum mer, Horace Berg and Harry Black. Two-year pins went to Ho mer Grow, N. D. Johnson and Slattery, and one-year pins to Ken Armson, Lee Butler, Ralph Oil man and Gordon Stewart. In respense to a report that the Rotary club is demanding retribu tion from the Kiwanis and Lions clubs for their defeat in the recent apple box derby special prelimi nary event, Fred Lockwood, Ki w a n 1 s committee chairman, charged their vehicle, a wheelbar row on wheels, was sabotaged. He said investigation showed there was sand in the gears. He made no accusations. WOMAN INJURED A woman whistle punk is in the Douglas Community hospital suf fering from a dislocated knee.
