Miller, com manding officer of an internment camp for prisoners of war, is a former Eugene man, and many who know him will find special interest in an account of a talk by him before high school students in North Dakota. The Cando Record-Herald, in which Lt CoL Mil ler is an owner, reported it as follows: "Civilian Italian Internees, who were at Camp McAlester origin ally, have been replaced by 7500 German prisoners. They are guarded by 1300 soldiers and 45 officers. Some of the prisoners were captured In north Africa, while others were taken in Sicily. They range in age from 15 to 50 years. "The prisoners are full of hate at first, but in few weeks this attitude changes end the majority seem satisfied. There are many German interpreters in camp, sinee few American officers speak German. ' "The prisoners have their own cooks and keep their own cloth ing and living quarters clean. When they have been in camp some time, they ask to be per mitted to attend church. Prisoners are allowed to attend camp mov ies, in groups during the day. They are not war pictures. American soldiers have the use of the the aters in the evenings. Prisoners are paid in coupons which they use to buy things at the post ex change or canteen. "The prisoners thought Amer ican white bread was cake, and asked for black bread, but later came to like white bread very much. Some of the men have gained from 30 to 40 pounds since arriving in camp. "About 3000 applications from prisoners, asking not to be sent back to Germany after the war, have been received by the com manding officer, but these re quests cannot be granted unless present laws are changed." : ; Calf Slaughter- (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) CRASH KILLS 18 RIO DE JANEIRO, Nov. 20.

As one example of how pro ductive the Springfield region is, a branch of a raspberry bush was brought In, grown by Wes ley Taylor, 12 years old, with both blooms and berries on it and this in late November. Wes ley lives on route 2, Spring field. An extra large hen's egg, meas uring 9 by 6V4 inches in circum ference, was brought in to the Register-Guard office by Mrs. J. L. Hoffman, route 5, Eugene, Saturday. "Let Route F beat this," she said but we told Mrs. Hoffman to be careful, "since as how" she lives out off Eleventh Avenue west and that Billy.

He said he could not find a market for the animals and could not afford to fatten them. OFA Differs The Portland office of OFA said It knew the dairymen were in dif ficulty, but contended the num ber of cows being milked in the state has increased steadily for 18 months. "Slaughter of young bull calves by dairies is a common practice. To raise the ceiling price on milk would only add to the reasons for killing calves. The dairymen kill the animals be cause they can't aiiora to teea them milk at present prices," OPA officials stated. One Lane county dairyman said he had sent several of the young calves "to the chemical works" recently. Even the best calves sell for nothing, he said, men tioning the fact that at a recent auction he could get only $1.25 a calf as against $15 or more in normal times for best calves. Un less feed costs come down and oth er factors attended to, to sea that the dairymen do not suffer heavy losses, there is no percentage in trying to raise calve, he added. Anotner dairyman mentioned the fact that the situation represents source or rood being thrown away, since many of these strong er, good calves would be raised for veal, normally, but with present-conditions no dairyman can afford to raise them. A third dairyman said he did not believe OPA had much to do with this particular situation, that ; u was an economic xactor worxing against the dairymen. With the demand so heavy for human eon sumption, there simply is not enough milk to feed the young calves; that milk production is lowt this season of the year, that another cause for milk for con sumption being less is that seme persons are using milk to make butter when butter is hard to get ana nign in point value. He said lust tha reveru tn- tlon would exist in the spring when milk production would be greater green paature being more extensive then when there would be scare milk to feerf vnnno calves, and there would be more demand for the calves. aware of the potentialities in the huge amounts of wood waste in their area. The total waste re quirements of a five-million-gallon alcohol plant is estimated at 120,000 tons of wood waste eaeh year. Surveys of the Eugene-Cottage Grove area show that the minimum Wood waste here is three times greater than this 120,000-ton figure. Lane lumbermen have long felt that the timber industry of the county can expand its partici pation in the economic pattern of the future by establishment of such a plant. Charles Snellstrom has been most active in his efforts to plan such a wood-distillation plant in Lane county. Snellstrom has con ferred with many of the exiled German scientists now in the U.S.: Scientists who were responsible for the establishment of the wood distillation industry In Germany which has proved to be the back bone of the axis economic program in the present war. . .
