Coastal Stream
Fish Ban Lifted
Portland, Oct. 21 (&) The state
game commission revoked a previous
order today prohibiting angling in
coastal streams and lakes from Oc
tober 15 to April 15.
The commission said It would
again consider at Us February, 1940,
meeting "the adoption of an order
restricting the fishing or entirely
closing all coastal streams to fish
ing during a part or all of the winter
months as may be deemed neces
sary to maintain fishing conditions
in such streams."
The order was rescinded, the com
mission said, because of "several pe
titions" asking winter fishing rights
and because many anglers "have
already purchased licenses with the
expectation of fishing during the
present winter season." Notice given,
it said, was too short.
A public hearing will be held be
fore action is taken barring winter
fishing, the commission added.
It asserted the "increasing de
mand" was injuriously affecting the
supply of trout in coastal streams
and It was becoming necessary to
increase natural spawning by limit
ing the take.
Increased Demand J
For Graded Turkeys
Au increased demand for turkeys
graded according to federal stand
ards apparently accounted for a
record attendance aL the federal
and state departments of agricul
ture annual turkey grading school,
held Thursday and Friday at Eu
gene, reports C. A. Cole, federal
state supervisor for Oregon. Fifty
persons attended. Including a cln.ss
of 10 students from the State col
lege.
Cole says that present requests
indicate 20 USDA marketing service
licenses, a new record, will be Is
sued turkey graders for this season.
First shipments to the associations
this season were made October 5,
or 25 days ahead of the first ship
ments last year.
Quality of Oregon turkeys is ex
cellent this year, birds are maturing
fast and the only need is for cold
weather which will put a stop to
pin feathers. Cole reports.
The grading instruction this year
was handled by Thomas W. Heitz,
Washington, D. C, marketing spe
cialist with the marketing service
of USDA.

Necessary to Grade
Walnuts for Export
Oregon ungraded walnuts, while
legal within the state this year,
cannot be sold inter-state. M. T.
Coogan, northwest representative of
the walnut control board, warns.
Coogan recently moved his offices
to Salem for closer contact with the
federal-state graders of the state
department of agriculture who do
all the Inspection work.
All walnuts that move out of the
stuto must contribute to the 37 per
cent surplus established under the
current marketing agreement. Tills
surplus is kept off the domestic mar
ket either through sales for crack
ing or export.
The Oregon and California walnut
crop this season is the largest in
history, estimated at a million bags.
The walnut control board is mak
ing a close check on all shipments
to other states but is Interested pri

ing It "drew Turkey Into the orbit of
war."
In its first comment on the pact.
which came after failure of Soviet
Russia and Turkey to negotiate
similar agreement, Izvestia said the
tri-power treaty was an "unsuc-
cesful attempt to drive a wedge be
tween Germany and the U. S. S. R..
also to draw tlie O. S. S. R. into a
combination which is chiefly directed
agalast Germany and eventual ene
mies of England and France In the
Mediterranean "(presumably Italy.)
This agreement," the paper con
tinued, "cannot be evaluated as an
instrument of peace. It drew Turkey
into tlie orbit of war."
Denying Russia would lose from
such an alliance, Izvestia said the
Soviet state maintained "freedom of
action which cannot be said about
Turkey Turkey has assumed re
sponsibility which cannot fail to be
relfected on Turkish policies within
the nearest future."
In any case the U. S. S. R. ha
no reason to be sorry for what hap
pened," Izvestia said.
Hoover Appeals
Anew for Ban
Nenf Vork. Oct. 21 lift Former
President Herbert Koover has ap
pealed anew for a ban on the sale
to belligerents of American-made
war weapons adapted for use
against civilian populations.
Hoover told a nation-wiae raaio
audience last night the time had
rnnA fnr America to take & clear
and explicit stand on wars against
civilians and added:
whn lever else may be done
about the embargo, America should
not sell ooiribVng pVaras, toevt
bombs, poison gas or submarines."
He expressed grave concern over
the bitterness he said was being
romatiri in this country by the
conflict over the proposed repeal
of the arms embargo.
Declaring this bitterness "threat
ens our national solidarity In the
face of dangers," he asserted that
patriotic men whose sole purpose
was to keep America out of war
were being denounced as "pro-
Hitler or pro-British."
The former nresldent urged again
fliot. rnnpress nrohibit the Sale Of
bombing planes, poison gas and
submarines as "a substitute to eith
er repeal or no repeal" of the con
troversial embargo.
Replying to critics of his pro
posal, Hoover said he had not at
tempted to differentiate between
every kind of weapon used In war
fnr either defense or offense but
that "the distinctions are not o
difficult."
