vest .was received Wednesday by
the Salem United War Chest, -W
M. Hamilton, chairman of the sal
vage committee for the chest, an
nounced. .
The 'money represented the
Value of the first carload of scrap
"from the drive shipped to steel
mills by Sam Kline, Salem deal
er. :
'That carload was made up of
- the salable metals from the pile
n Trade street east of Commer
cfaL Eight other scrap heaps of
tnetal are to be sorted for the
materials now usable and salable,
Hamilton said, suggesting that in
terested firms and organizations

Navigation company.
A. C. Haag & company donated
Services of one of their men to
help in loading of the trucks,
while George Looney, route two,
Turner, and Sam Agnew, 1740
Waller street, donated time. Ser
vices of the latter two were se
cured through cooperation of Lew
Harkins, secretary of the Teams
ter's union here.
Not just the fact that the lighter
metals were found to be on the
unsalable list after the scrap har
vest was well underway in Salem,
4ut also the recent embargo on
acceptance of scrap in San Fran
leioeo steel mills held up sal of
, the materials- gathered in Salem

That embargo has been- lifted,
having been effective approxi
mately three weeks while mills
were disposing of their heavy in
take of scrap metals from nearby

Tighter Conservation Control
Urged for Timber States
PORTLAND, Dec. 2-P)-Gov. Arthur B. Langlie of Wash
ington and Perry Merrill, , Vermont state forester, Wednesday
urged timber states to tighten conservation controls instead of
leaving relation to the federal government.
Addressing thejannual convention of the western forestry
a n d conservation T association, : . ..
Langlie said all timber states
need more, rigid regulation and he
advocated they, set up. conserva
tion systems designed to distribute
benefits and expenses on state
wide basi&;-; Yf-;
A forest advisory committee
was set up in Washington a year
ago to study existing problems,
he said, , and its recommendations
for .a statewide 'cooperative con
servation program soon will be
enacted into law.
Merrill, who is president of the
National State Foresters' associa
tion, told the 300 delegates from
Oregon, Washington, California,
Idaho and Montana: j ':'?
The people - of each state are
dose to their own problems. Our.
strength is in our rugged indi
vidualism, and while we need a
strong central government, we by
no means propose to surrender
state functions to Washington. The
trend is toward uniform-state sys
tems, so there is no reason, nor
excuse, for superimposed federal
regulation In the state field."
Merrill said that conservation
should be on a 50-50 basis fed
eral money matched by state
funds. ; '
persons who desire to consult with
me or my assistants," Van Winkle
concluded.

Lack of Milk
Not Necessary
The so-called milk shortage in
Oregon : would . remedy itself if
producers of facory milk, particu
larly that used for cheese, butter
and other ' manufacturing pur
poses, would equip their bams
and milk houses to comply with
the fluid milk market require
ments, A. W. Metzger, chief of the
foods: and dairies division, state
agricultural : department, - declared
here Wednesday. v v
Metzger 'said he- is convinced
there, is plenty, of milk in Ore
gon and that the shortage comes
from the channel into which dairy
production is turned.! Y;Yi Yv
There . are several factors,"
Metzger said, "which - influence.
dairies producing factory milk not
to switch over to fluid milk. One
is the differential in price between
factory milk . and , the price paid
by the distributor." :
Metzger said another thing hard
to explain is that in one locality
in the central. Willamette valley
one dairy has received around 90
cents a pound for butterfat, less
hauling charges for milk, while
another dairy .close by "and ship
ping, to. a different market, has
received 70 cents a pound butter
fat, less the cost of transporta
tion.' 'j ? - .A - '. ; '
Oregon dairymen were declared
loyal by metzger but he said cha
otic conditions would prevail just
as long as present conditions con
tinue. ; ;,
It is my opinion," Metzger con
tinued," that, if dairymen . were
assured a fair price for milk that
