(AP) Despite an increased area of 2.6 per eent planted to principal crops this year, total production was estimated today by the de partment of agriculture as 3 per cent lower than last year due t decreased yields per acre. But for the increased area, of ficials said today, there might have been a serious crop short age in the United States. yields per acre showed a re duction for all principal crops of 6.4 per cent compared with th' ten year average and 4.5 per cent under last years crop. Pros pects for yields, the department said, had not been so low at thli time of year in the last twelve years with the exception of 1921 The decrease was attributed main ly to drought in the corn belt and southwestern s.tes. The only crops showing in creased yields per acre were giv en by tho department as spring wheat, which is expected to run over the five year average yield per acre by about one tenth of a bushel. Among the crops showing a re duction in yield per acre com pared with the ten year average are: : Potatoes 3.5 per cent: apples 11 per cent; barley 1.7 per cent; flax 1.2 per cent; tame hay 16.3 per cent; corn .9 per cent; oats 3.2 per cent. The lowest yield per acre was reported from Texas with C3.6 per cent of the ten year average and the highest from Nevada with 114 per cent. Powhattan Courthouse. Va., Aug. 3 (AP) Mrs. Maggie B.

Eugene. Or., Aug. 13. Lane county officers, fearing that knowledge of the Lane country posvjessed by Tom Murray, one of the trio of convicts who escaped trom the Oregon state prison last night, might leid the desperado-js to attempt the McKenzie pass into eastern Oregon, patrolled the highway all night last night. Nothing suspicious was sighted however. The local officers were aided in their search by two prison guards, Foust and SandcTer, and a life term trusty, who came here upon receipt of word that a car carry ing the escapes nad headed thia way.

CONS MAKE GOOD THEIR GET-AWAY (Continued from page jne) offico to be operating under Guard Gardner, but inquiry revealed that they had split into several parties and Gardner did not know where they were. George L. Cleaver, former state prohibition commis sioner, and four men were con ducting still unother campaign. Nn Clews Renorted. Added la all of thene, innumer able groups of (arm erg and other volunteers seeking excitement were wnderin here and there, but "o cb-ws were reported. About 10 o'clock this morning Deputy Warden Li Hey left for the scene of tlie hunt to suo It some more effective organization could not be effected that would ordinate the efforts of all, and trv to eliminate some of the volunteers. Prison authorities looking back over tlie previous t tempt of Murray and Kelly to escape this afternoon oxprossed the opinion that tiie fugitives would likely adopt the same tactics they used upon t he former occasion, lie in hiding during daylight and travel at night, also doing their foraging for food under the cover of dark ness by robbing country stores or raiding farm houses. According to these calculations the. convicts are not yet sufficiently hungry to risk showing themselves, but will likely do so as eoon as It becomes dark enough for them to travel safely tonight. Tactics of Ksrnneq The officers are also inclined to Blvo credance to the argument that It Is entirely likely that the threo will work their way south ward toward Aumsvllle, a dis tance of nine or ten miles, the scene of their former hide-and- seek game with the posses. I-rom Aumsvllle south through tho Marion country to Jefferson the country Is all familiar to Mur ray who evaded tho officers for a full week In that section. Another theory being considered is that the men will remain close to their present hiding place for several days- until the enthusiasm of searcherH has waned and their vigllaneo relnxed and then steal nnolher automobile and make a night attempt to get out of the country entirely. Tracy Escape Rccnllcd All of the officers aro agreed that tho situation is a potential duplication of tho Tracy-Merrill rampage of J!02, nnd that Mur ray, at least, Is as dangerous as either Tracy or Merrill. Warnings aro being broadcasted at farmers and county stores to be on guard u nil limes, for another murder or two means nothing to the con victs now. District Attorney John Cnrann Sheriff Bower and their aides were nt the prison this morning gather ing evidence for tho charges of murder to he brought attains! the convicts If they are recaptured.

P. company will af fect rates at Salem as soon as there aro industries here large enough to come under the regulations in volved In tho announcement, it was stated this morning by W. M. Ham ilton, head of tho local branch of tho company. At the present time, Hamilton states,' the paper mill Is tho only local plant using a sufficient amount of power to come under the provisions of the reduction, and tho mill already has tho rate giv on to largo plants at Portland. Their present contract, entered in to when tho mill was first estab lished, calls for a rate of $27 per horsepower hour after tho load carried exceeds more than 4000 killowatts. "It Is our policy to foster these industries as much as possible," says Mr. Hamilton, "in oruer iu build up the community. "Wo gave tho local paper company their rate In order that they might compete successfully with other paper mills such as the one nt Oregon City, where they use direct water pow er." .Any other Industries which be come large enough to securo the reduction will have It, ho states. except that thero may be a slight difference between tho rate here and that at Portland due to the fact that Tortland Is closer to the source of power supply.
