Wanted to Rent or Lease on long term basis Furnished house for member of Evening: Observer Staff Call 600 La Grande Evening Observer Another EiH to Seek 'West Point On West Coast' Several Proposals For Naval Schools In West, South . WASHINGTON, July 17 (UP) A bill proposing establishment of a military academy on the Pa cific coast was introduced today for Rep. Lcroy Johnson, R , Calif. Johnson is the fourth congress man to suggest the need of a western West Point. His bill would authorize the secretary of war to start investigations and report to the house military af fairs committee with recommend ed locations if he finds a need exists for a second aculemy. Four Bllli "On the western side of the continent we should have a school where our future army officers and enlisted men can be trained In every type of warfare," John son said in a statement written bafore he left for California yes terday. Although the bill stipulates "west coast," the statement urges selection of site in California be cause of its variety of climate and topography. Senators Theodore Bilbo, D., Miss-, and Guy Cordon, R., Ore., have introduced similur bills providing for a "west coast" location. Rep. Gordon McDon ough, R., Calif., specified a site In "southern California" in his bill introduced earler this year. No action has been taken o:i any of these bills nor on any of those introduced to establish na val academics in the west. One of these was introduced by Bil bo, who wants both a naval and army academy in the south. Reps. John Tolan, D., Calif., and Franck Havenner, D Calif., urg-jd a loca tion in the San Francisco bay area in their bills. Rep, Hugh. Delacy, D.,' Wash., sponsored a bill to locate a sec ond Annapolis at Puget Sound. McDonpugh also wants a western naval academy, but he wants it in southern California. Lawrence Hawes Also Has Model Of 'Half Moon' Walfred Gudmundson, who, in a Portland paper Sunday, show ed what- he believed to be the only scale model of Henry Hud son's Half Moon, is actually un able to claim even the only mod el, in Oregon, since Lawrence Hawes, 604 ,Adi"-avunue, also has a scale model of the famous ship. The model was built by Elmer Goddard in 1937, carved from one large piece of mahogany, instead of being made from separate pieces of sugar pine and fir as is Gudmundson's model. Goddard was six months building the ship, which bears the original Dutch spelling "Haelve Maen," an has two anchors, two cannons on each side, and two aft. There is one deck gun, one life boat, and three tiny stairways, two with five steps each, and one with two steps. The sails are kept down, but can be hoisted, when desired, bv midget ropes passing through pulleys. The pulleys were made by sawing knitting needles into sections. After Goddard's death in 1941, Mrs. Goddard presented the mod el to Hawes, who keeps it on top of his desk at home. Goddard made only one other ship, a model of a pirate ship, now owned by one of his friends in Portland.

Ship Repair Jobs SAN FRANCISCO, July 17 (UP) The wur manpower com mission announced today the na tiun is at work on a program to transfer 2,000 skilled workers to critical- jobs n ship repair yards, railroads and other high priority war plants in CaliforniaArizona, Nevada, Oregon and Washing tun. WMC Director Robert C. Good win, reporting the program at the close of a tluee-duy conference of regional WMC directors from throughout the nation, said the 43 states outside the west coast area will seek to recruit 2U.U00 workers for trunfer to the west. The five staes in turn will mutch this number with workers chan neled from ship construction yards and other less essential plants to more vital jods. Provision must also be made by WMC, Goodwin said, for cri tical war manpower needs in other war producing areas, in cluding the Atlantic seaboard, southern states, midwest region and Rocky mountain area, where urgent schedules in munitions, textiles, lumber, mining and basic war materials call for ' m a n y worker replacements. Chinese Threaten Former Air Base CHUNGKING, July 17 (UP) Chinese troops penetrated Kwei- lin today in a quick smash that threatened 'to overrun the largest Japanese-held 14th U. S. air force base in China. Two advancing columns in Kwangsi province pushed 20 miles north of Kweilin to cut off the enemy's retreat toward Hun an province. Forward elements of Chinese troops stormed Kweilin's out perimeter, advanced through out lying defenses and smashed into the suburbs. Primary targets of this ground campaign are three huge air fields dotting Kweilin s outskirts, which constitute the largest base abandoned to the enemy. A communique a n n o u n ced Chinese troops in Kwangtung province captured Tinpak, 150 miles west of Hongkong, and Tunghsin, in the southwestern coast of the province approxim ately 200 miles southwest of Kweilin.

WILSON WASHINGTON, July 17 (UP) American communists aia about to boot Earl Browder out of the party command in a maneuver toward resuming the class war they abandoned nearly two years ago under his leadership. Browder persuaded the party to give up its active political status and to become the com munist political association. It was his theory nil cloments of the population of the United States could live, work and prospor to gether. Other communists chal lenged Browder. Likely rosier Now after move than a month of public discussion in the com munist press, these developments appear likely: I. Removal of Browder and selection of an advocate of the class struggle as American com munist leader. William rosier, veteran of the movement, seems to be a likely successor. 2. Abandonment or tne - poli tical association" type or organ ization in favor of a regularly or- unnized political party. 3 An aggressive communist boring into all mass organizations notably labor unions. Back Again All the foreeoine is in the dis cussion stage and uwaits final decision by a communist conven. vention. But the tred of com munist sympathy is clearly evi dent in the organization's daily and weekly press. Columns of discussion have been priniea with little if any disagreement with the argument communists had better get back into the class struggle business. Tho communists recognize the fuct they are too few in number to be a major political factor, al though they have on ccasion cast balanco-of-powor votes in New York state. Therefore they frankly assort their interest in boring into other mass organiza tions to spread the party line. Ultimately they hope to break through the two-party system in the United States. Americans to Get 'Just' Share of Nation's Food Crop WASHINGTON, July 17 (UP) American civilians are going to get a just share of the nation's food supply and not simply what is left in the cupboard af ter other demands have been met. Secretary of Agriculture Clin ton P. Anderson made that clear' today with his pledge the needs of the American people must and will be given "due recogni tion" when food is being allo cated for military and foreign use. In his first public survey of food problems, the nation's new food boss said the policy of "close nnd constant" scrutiny of food de mands already has brought re sults. Truman Asks For 'One Man Board' WASHINGTON, July 17 (UP) President Truman today asked congress to scrap the three-man surplus property board and au thorize uppointment of a single official to direct the vast job of handling the government's sur plus war property. Experience has shown the job should be centralized under a single head, Truman said in a special message to congress. The program now is adminis tered by a three-man board. Its new chairman, W. Stuart Sym ington of St. Louis, took his oath of office only yesterday. It was believed if congress should set up a one-man administrator, Tru man probably would pick Sym ington.

' King Leopold Asks Vote On Kingship LONDON, July 17 (UP) Fro ntier Achille Van Acker read to the Belgian chamber of deputies today a letter in which King Leopold asked that parliamen tary elections be held to test whether he should retain the throne. Leopold, in the letter broad cast by the Brussels radio, said cntiment at present could not be determined, and that the "will of the people alone" would cause him to abdicate. The Belgian parliament met in extraordinary session to consider the political crisis. Leopold said he considered that a majority of the Belgians wanted him to re turn, but he would not "until na tional consultation of the country takes place." Blackbirds, thrushes, larks and other birds, were sold for food in London during World War I. Shop Here for All Foods! ' We know that daily meal planning requires varied and appetizing menus.
