High Price to Troop
Trains Hit by OPA
Complaints that troop train per.
sor.nel, momentarily stopping in
Eugene, are being charged above
celling prices (or ice cream,
caused two refreshment vendors
operating near the SP depot to be
hailed before the OPA price panel,
it was disclosed Thursday.
The dealers were specifically
charged with selling ice cream at
SS and 60 cents a quart when the
Eugene ceiling for ice cream is
35 cents a quart.
According to the findings of the
price panel the overall average
price of ice cream in the vicinity
of the SP station has been around
40 cents a quart despite the 35
cents city average; therefore the
panel decided that one of the
dealers involved should roll his
prices back from 50 cents to 40
cents a quart, while the other
merchant, who in 1S42 filed a
selling price of 50 cents a quart
with the OPA, should bring his
current price of 60 cents back to
his 1942 level. .

Douglas Expected
To Oppose Wallace
WASHINGTON, July 13
Supporters of Henry A. Wallace
named Supreme Court Justice
William O. Douglas today as the
vice president's chief rival for
second place on the 1944 demo
cratic ticket.
They also are keeping an eye
on Senate Leader Barkley, Speak
er Sam Rayburn, Sen. Truman
(D-Mo) and War Mobilization Di
rector James F. Byrnes.
Organized campaigns are not
yet in evidence for any of them.
None is likely pending an expect
ed word from President Roosevelt
that he wouldn't mind having
Wallace for a running mate again
but that somebody else might do.
The Wallace camp has an idea
that a definite, if not open, drive
is in progress for Douglas. It has
heard rumors that back of Doug
las are Secretary of the Interior
Ickes, Joseph P. Kennedy, former
ambassador to England, and
Thomas Corcoran, former Roose
velt "brain truster." .

No Farm Survey
No survey of agricultural em
Jloyment opportunities was taken.
However, there is now an icute
shortage of agricultural labor in
the county. In 1840, 3,725 persons
were associated with agriculture.
This constituted an adequate lab-
or supply considering the relation-J
ship between prices or ,iarm pro
ducts and costs of production (in
cluding wages), according to the
report. The present shortage is due
to demands of the armed services
and the departure of many per
sons to work in war centers. If
all the people who are now in the
armed services and war industries
were to return to the farms from
which they left, there wculd be
little labor shortage. In other
words, it is not likely that the
farm population, (volume of em
ployment in agriculture) will in
crease substantially over the 1840
figure during the first few months
after the end of the war. For the
longer run, more intensive farm
ing may increase the farm popu
lation. Of the 1000 questionnaires sent
to urban consumers, 322 had been
returned by July 1 and others
have come in since, Dr. Ballaine
said. Those replying proposed to
allocate $908,595 as follows: 60
percent for new houses (built by
owners or contractors); 14 per
cent for new autos; 11 percent for
home furnishing, (Including furn
iture, appliances, home freezing
unit, etc.); 7 percent remodel
house (including air condition
unit); 7 percent for travel; and 1
percent for miscellaneous.

man, woman and child of your

ROME, July 13 (UPJ American
assault forces 6tormed and cap
tured Lajatico, German mountain
stronghold 20 miles southeast ot
Livorno, in some of the bitterest
fighting on the Italian front since
the fall of Rome, allied head
quarters reported today.
German resistance stiffened
further all along the line, and now
is nesring the intensity ot a. full
scale stand in the outposts of the
Gothic line as the allied fifth and
eighth armies battle before the
coastal anchors of Livorno and
Ancona.
The Germans mounted costly
and generally unsuccessful coun
terattacks in a number of sectors,
and were revealed to have push'
ed advanced eighth army elements
".:. . two miles from Pie' . ' inga
in the mountains east of the Ti
ber valley.
United States units of Lt. Gen.
Mark W. Clark's fifth army beat
off counter-thrusts in the Era
river valley southeast of Livorno
before capturing by-passed Laja
tico and making gains up to a mile
and a half beyond the line five
miles eastward from Lajatico to
Villamagna..
. The allied .communique and
supplementary reports said notn
ing of the situation in the coastal
sector below Livorno, where the
Americans had captured Castigli

eight miles of the big port.
French forces of the fifth army

road seven miles southwest of

Industry and 38 per cent from

"In your city approximately
5.7 pounds of household waste
paper per person are available
each month in addition to 5.5
pounds per person on surround
ing farms. These figures provide
for the first time monthly quotas
for your area and should prove
helpful in stimulating household
collections.
"Despite the excellent coopera
tion of the public and the 17,000
salvage committees, collections
have averaged about 588,000 tons
a month in 1944, or 79,000 tons
short of our monthly goal. Re
ceipts in May were 622,000 tons
or 45,000 tons below our quota
and for June we are receiving
only 84 per cent.
"Obviously continuation of this
dangerous situation will not only
jeopardize war production but
cause further curtailment of the
diminished allotments of civilian

Not Convinced
"A new study made through

63 per cent of our families are
saving waste paper regularly and
only 67 per cent are convinced
of the need of waste paper. This
is astonishing in the light of your
