C A If T I ON fj onlyaditectd Real Estate Ufri Outlook Good For Valley In Post War Years (Continued from Page 1 lumber remanufacture in La Grande and in Elgin. The Mt. Emily Lumber company here has completed and in operation a new plant which has 18,000 square feet of space. This has been put into use in the last two years. The company expects to continue attention lo the manufacturing side. The manufacturing of lumber into other products here will mean less raw lumber will be shipped per unit of income and per unit of labor, which in turn means more persons employed and larger payrolls. - The Pondosa Fine and Lumber company at Elgin also has plans to increase its employment. It expects to go into post war pro duction as soon as possible in its entirely remanufacturing plant. Breathing Space M. G. Breuner, assistant super intendent of this division of the Union Pacific Railroad company, declared the railroads expect, peace or no peace, to handle an unusually heavy volume for the next few weeks. Then, ho said, they may be a short breathing space, or what passes . for a breathing space in these hectic times. The railroad, he said, can lose a thud of the business it Is now doing and still not havo to lay off a man, because most of the meii are doing about that much over load in their work now. After the "breathing spell," in which the situation will dron more nearly to normal, he and other railroaders expect to start moving an unusually heavy ton nage of reconversion materials. Remodeling As for the building and con tracting work, already several business houses in La Grande have started . remodeling and many others are expected to fol low suit. New building on a large scale may be in the offing. For instance, a specific post war program which is of interest to a large part of the state is the highway program. These include state highways, county roads, bridges, and exten sion of present systems of roads. School Expansion Already planned are expan sions of the school system here, for which a five mill tax is now in its second year and. has raised $120,000 as a nucleus for school development in the La Grande district. Several consolidations of schools in the county will also necessitate construction of new buildings. Eastern Oregon college of edu cation also has a building pro gram which includes certainly a new library building and tenta- ively a men s dormitory. Both of these will mean many jobs for many men over varying periods of time. In addition, the city is plan ning extension of its sewage and water system and construction of in incinerator. Besides this, there is already available the nucleus of a fund for a swimming pool somewhere n the city. Complete modernization of its plant and extension of its lines in the agenda for the West Coast Telephone company. The Eastern Oregon Light and Power company also contemplates and has plans for extension and mod- rnization of its facilities throughout. Agriculture in the valley has lready increased its diversifica tion during the war time, not ably in peas and in seed grasses. Tho wheat, fruit, hay and ranch ing of the valley can also be in creased. Definite possibility of irriga tion is also seen, a report of which is about to be made pub lie. Irrigation would provide un limited capacity for diversifica !ion, would permit smaller farm units and intensive operations and increase the number of farms in the valley. 'I'm Quite Finished j j.

Chiang Offers To Negotiate With Chinese Reds (Continued from Page 1) atomic bomb, dropped for the first time only nine days before, was "new and most cruel. The emperor spoke over the Japanese broadcas!.ing corpora tion network at noon Tokyo time (8 p. m. Tuesday PWT). It was the first time, with the exception of a few government and military officials and members of the royal family, that any Japanese had heard the voice of the em peror. Dispatches from Guam said captured Japanese officers who listened to the broadcast on Oki nawa believed there was no doubt the emperor made the broadcast in person. FIRST OF EXPECTED WAVE OF SUICIDES SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15 (UP) The Japanese cabinet re signed today and one member al ready has committed hara-kiri in the first of what may become a wave ,ot suicides among- Japan's beaten war lords. The official Japanese Domei news agency said war minister Gen. Korechika Anami, 58. took his life at his official residence to "atone for his failure." Domei said Premier Kantaro Suzuki tendered the resignation of his cabinet. Japan's surrender required a new cabinet of men "with fresh ideas," Tokyo said. Suzuki presented the resigna tions personally to the emperor. Hirohilo accepted the resigna tions, but askeel Suzuki to remain in office. Disclosure of Anami's suicide touched off speculation that oth er members of the Suzuki and pas', cabinets similarly would "ateme for their failure" to win the war, ' Another former premier, Gen. Hideki Tojo, one of the chief in stigators of the Pearl Harbor at tack also may choose suicide. Tojo is expected to be named by the allies arriong Japan's leading war criminals. Domei gave no details of Ana mi's suicide, but there seemed little doubt that he followed the anicent custom of plunging a dag ger into the left side of his stom ach, drawing it lo tho right and turning it upward. Tradition calls for an officii I second simultaneously to behe'ad tho victim wiMi a sword. This in turn could make an in crease in farm employment and a consequent increase in the ac cessory industries and supply businesses in the cities and towns. With Him Now!' ACit TlUuIwIo) .
