Until recently the Governor was Inclined to reap point Mr. Adams, but it is said pro tests became so numerous that the ap pointing power recently began to look about for another appointee. Another consideration that Is said to have in fluenced the Governor in deciding to allow Mr. Adams to retire waa the re port that the commissioner was not giving Withycombe the active support in his candidacy for re-election that tne latter had reason to expect.

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, .March 29. Representatives Hawley and McArthur, with Dr. C. R. Matthls, of Amity, had a lone confer ence today with Secretary of Agricul ture Huston, on the condensed milk situ ation in Oregon, aa the result of which assurances were given by the Secretary that milk now on hand would be moved to market and that the Oregon con- enseries will be allowed to operate for the remainder of the war period ithout Federal interference. Two propositions were submitted for the disposal of over 82,000 cases of con.' densed milk made from Jersey herns, which had an excess of butterfat and alight deficiency In total eolids, pro duced by factories at Amity, McMinn-v ville, Dayton, Scio and other points. The department agreed to take effective) action to secure the sale of these ac cumulated stocks with the aid of the Food Administration and War Depart ment. ' The question of future production of these factories was also discussed, and provision will be made for their con- tinued operation on a profitable basis. These arrangements end their difficul ties, otherwise they and others would have been compelled to close, entailing a great loss to producers of milk. . Mr. Hawley made the chief presen tation of the case, since the industries are located in his district. . j The Canadian government exempted the Doukhobors from conscription be cause of their religious views.
