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.

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

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.
