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.

4. 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.
Price officials Insisted they were
not trying to "beat" the new law
or "contravene the intent of Con

of the orders couldn't have been
issued if they had waited until
today.
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

charged their vehicle, a wheelbar

said investigation showed there was
sand in the gears. He made no accusations.
