Not Many Downtown
There were few people in the
downtown district Saturday aft

and garden-hoses to Willamette
St. heat One fountain owner,
whose customers largely are local
merchants, reported four, of the
usual 40, loaves of bread were
sold as sandwiches, even though
the number of customers re
mained about the same. "They
all wanted drinks," he explained.
There b an old Chine In

But there were some who fol
lowed the path pointed by the
Chinese. A -waitress reported six
cups of coffee sold Saturday be
tween 3 and 6 p.m.
At other fountains and restau
rants, waitresses and soda-jerks
paused long enough in their head
long flights to sigh but refused to
estimate the number of cold
drinks sold. Then they balanced
their trays of drinks and started
on the run.

Sales of popcorn at local stands
dropped to less than one-third of
the normal. Ice cream soared over

of any five days previously.
Saturday afternoon's edition of

plates on the press, melted in the
combination of extreme beat and

rollers and cleaned up melted
rubber which spread "like mo

Most Eugeneans decried the ex.

a dissenter:

32M in the Grade
An estimated 3300 children win
attend elementary schools here
this fall. Increases over last year
probably will run something like
this: Second graders, 25, third
graders, 30, fourth 10, fifth 30 and
sixth 40.
There win be about 1325 stu
dents in Junior high schools and
about 1475 in senior high schools.
These estimates probably are as
close as anyone can make now,
two months before the opening of
school.

More than 1000 students are ex

term of the University of Oregon
summer session. Dr. Eldon L.
Johnson, acting director, said Sat
urday. Plans are being made to con
duct the second session on a full
scale basis, he explained. Thirty
three new courses have been add
ed to the curriculum, and five
new staff members will help
handle the overload. A full activ
ities program has also been sche
duled. To accommodate the unprece
dented numbers of students for
the second term, registration has
already been opened. Materials
were made available July 17, in
stead of July 24 as originally
planned. Students may obtain
registration cards from the sum
mer session offices in Oregon hall.

who was chief of naval operations.
But Ferguson and Brewster
named both. They declared:
'The failure to perform the re

sential to the defense of Pearl

civil and military authorities:
"Franklin D- Roosevelt Presi

"Harold R. Stark admiral, chief

"Leonard T. Gerow major

Klmmel, Short Blamed
Both the majority and minority
reports agreed that Adm. Husband
E. Klmmel and U. Gen. Walter C.
Short, Navy and Army Command
ers In Hawaii, had not measured
up to the responsibilities given
them.
Their commands were acknowl
edged not to have been on an all
out alert when Japanese bombers,
winging from carriers at sea,
roared over the Hawaiian base
early Sunday, Dec. 7, 1941, knock
ed out eight battleships and 10
lesser craft of the Pacific fleet and
killed 3435 Americans.
The majority reported, however,
that "the errors made by the
Hawaiian commands were errors
of Judgment and not derelictions
of duty." Thus it rejected a find
ing of "dereliction of duty" made
by a presidential commission,
headed by then Supreme Court
Justice Owen J. Roberts, which
conducted an investigation in the
weeks immediately after the dis
aster. The majority, in their conclu
sions, named no names of mili
tary men in Washington who in
their opinion fell short in per
formance. But the report criticized
the intelligence and war plans di
visions of both the Army and
Navy.

Rise in Farm
Values Indicated
Lane County farm land values
have risen 78.9 per cent since 1941,
according to figures released by
the United States Department of
Agriculture Bureau of Agricul
tural Economics at Berkeley, Cali
fornia. The average price per acre ef
cultivated farm land rose from
1106.10 in 1941 to $189.84 in 1946,
reports of the bureau show. Pas
ture land more than doubled in
value during the same period of
time, going from 114.34 to $30.13.
Speculation In farm lands is In
dicated in the report by the num
ber of cases in which farm lands
were resold within a two year
period. Thia figure rose from 23
in 1942 to 96 In 1945. The average
selling price was from 31 to 60
per cent higher than the purchas
ing price on these transactions the
report snows.
Figures of the report also show
sale of farm land in Lane County
rose to a peak in 1944 and has
gradually slacked off since that
time. Prices per sere however
have showed consistent steady
fains since 1941.
Eugene realtors reported Satur
day that sale ef farm land was

except for the larger farms, al
though even on the larger tracts
of land the lessening demand had
not forced a reduction in land
prices yet "As far as the general
trend in the last 90 days is con
cerned,' Earl Chapman, Oregon
Settlement association, s s i d,
"larger farm sales are dropping
off. Smaller farms, up to 50cres,
are still selling readily. The price
per acre on all farm land is hold
ing steady."
