I Miss1 Daphine Fairbanks. 18-year-o 1 d daughter of swashbuckling movie star Douglas Fairbanks Jr. and Mrs. Fairbanks, has been named queen of the 31st Shenandoah Apple Blossom Festival. The brunette freshman at Briar Cliff College, Sioux City, Iowa, will reign over the annual extrav aganta to spring and apples May 1-2. tivity this week and others seeing gradual improvement and enough new business to moderately cushion their unfilled order files. During the past week fresh snow fell in Missouri, Kansas and oth er sections of the Midwest and East, putting a damper on lumber buying from large fir mills. How ever, there was a slight increase in inquiry and buying at compared to past weeks with sales mostly to country yards. All export markets are quiet. The Atlantic Coast cargo market took a buying spurt this week for all ports, Baltimore and north, includ ing metropolitan New York. Rain during the past week curtailed ac tivity in the California cargo mark et. The volume ef enroute and ar . -.. , riving cargo has been greater than i demand and no one is buying 1 ahead. I Inclement weather still retarded i buying of Western pine and associ j ated species, but there is optimism over market trends and prospects. I Plywood plants are booked to the extent they desire at the 164- 166 index for --inch Ad and are now asking 168. Numerous plant price lists have been issued at the 168 base. Seasonal buying usually starts during April to early May. If production can be kept in bal month or so. plywood manufactur ers believe prices will strengthen and demand will build up a backlog of new business that will carry them through the mid year holiday closures.

This, Asst. Secretary Ross L. Leffler. in a report on a pending Senate bill, said the Fish and Wildlife Service has found that bounties generally serve more as a means of harvesting an annual crop of the pest species being bountied, rather than as an effective meas ure of control of the predators. "Under such a system, preda tors are taken where the take is easiest and least expensive, and not necessarily where their taking doea the most good," he said. Leffler expressed a preference for direct control measures em-v ployment of professional hunters . and trappers who concentrate their efforts in problem areas. He said such measures are much more effective and less expensive. Research Making Headway In Fight Against Cancer WASHINGTON i Top Cancer experts believe "important break throughs may be expected in tne not too distant future" in the fight against the disease. iheir hopes were expressed to the House Appropriations Commit tee during recent closed-door hear ings on the fiscal 19j9 budget of the Department of Health, Educa tion and Welfare. The committee made public their testimony today. Dr. John R. Heller, director of the National Cancer Institute, said research programs "are providing momentum which was unknown the cancer field a few short years ago. the expected Dreakinrougns in research, he said, "may lead to better understanding of the origin and nature of cancer; they may open direct and short paths to drug cures; they may point the ; way to widespread prevention ot cancer through immunization." Virus Barrier Needed Virus studies. Heller said, have reached the point where develop ment of a vaccine may be "around the corner." He said that "when we get a vaccine, we can prevent canrcr. Heller told the committee it al ready is possible to produce a vac cine against cancer in animals and that in 80 per cent of the cases tested, the animals treated have been protected against cancer, par ticularly leukemia. "If we can produce a vaccine against Leukemia in animals," he said, "there is hope that we can produce such a vaccine for hu mans." Heller said there is "grave sus picion that excessive concentra tion of automobile exhaust (fumes), which contain what we call polycyclic hydrocarbons, will produce cancers in the human." Some animals exposed to such fumes, he added, have become cancerous. erty taxes greatly increased be cause of the law, while others will get sizable reductions. Generally, districts with lots of school children and with relatively low property valuations will reap the benefits. In some counties the rural peo ple will pay more to help reduce the tax load of the city people. In others the city taxpayers will pay more to help the country folk. Portland, Medford, Eugene and Corvallis are districts that will have to pungle up more school taxes under the law. Ihose rural districts which will have to exceed the 6 per cent tax too, will be figured on the basis of flat grants per pupil, rather than need. Turnbull said that some dis tricts in Umatilla County are the hardest hit under the rural school law. He said that Umatilla County taxpayers also will get an extra jolt because their property valua tions were increased 27 per cent. The effect of this, he said, is to make a general increase in local taxes, and also to shift some of the load from utilities to other real and personal property. Stanfield and Umatilla are the hardest hit in this regard, he said. When the steamship Titanic was sunk in 1912 by an iceberg off the Newfoundland coast, 1,517 lives were lost.
