more than it could handle with
present facilities.

strong market for the automo
bile shares. The issue was
fairly active. Chrysler rose
nearly a point in moderate turn
over. Railroad issues were among
the best gainers near closing
time. Norfolk & Western ran
up 2 points to a new high at 181.
Santa Fe and Southern Pacific
turned active and strong near
the end of the session.
Utilities were active. Two
10,000-share blocks for Com
monwealth & Southern made
that issue the active leader.
Communication Issues follow
ed American Telephone higher.
International Telephone was ac
tive at a new high on a favor
able report.
Dow Jones preliminary clos
ing stock averages: industrial,
134.00, up 0.B1; rail 35.01, up
0.S5; utility, 19.71, up 0.50; and

were 479,000 shares against
246,325 in the previous session.

Quite a Nagger
Seattle, April 21 (U.RlMrs.
Isabelle Hoag, 22, told authori
ties today she got so tired of
hearing herself nag her husband
she decided to "do him a favor
nnd kill herself."
Taken to a hospital after slab
bing herself twice in the chest
Mrs. Hoag told attendants the
way she nagged her husband,
Riley, a mechanic, was "some
thing terrible."
"Mostly I nagged him about
money," she said. Told she
would recover, she promised not
to try to take her life again, but
she added:
"Somebody ought to kick me
Where it would do the most
good."
Court Dismisses
78 indictments
0 San Francisco, April 21 VP)
Anil-trust law indictments ag
'ainst 78 persons, contractors and
labor unions were dismissed by
Federal Judge A. F. St. Sure
Monday In a ruling that upheld
a labor union's contention that
painting with spray guns would
cut down available work for Its
members.
The 78, in a case growing oul
of their refusal lo paint gov
ernment housing projects with
spray guns, had been charged
with combining to restrict the
use of such equipment.
The defendants also contend
ed that painting with spray guns
was dangerous lo health. Judge
St. Sure, after commenting Hint
there was no indication the de
fendants intended lo fix prices
or suppress competition, ndded:
"Here it appears llial Iho de
fendants are not in the paint
spray business and are not In
competition with the trade
which it is alleged llicy restrain
ed. The indictment charges the
defendants agreed to restrict the
use of equipment," He comment
ed that the union demands ap
peared lo bo reasonable and Hint
if employers accepted those de
mands they could not bo con
sidered unlawful.

Continuation of
U. S. National Banks
from Page 1
Jonathan Bourne in Alabama.
Prescott asked the committee
here to make an investment in
war bonds for him, t,o be credit
ed to the Marion county drive.
While Gard did not release the
amount of bonds which Prescott
desired to have purchased for
him, he said it was a sizeable
block. Prescott formerly was
Oregonian representative here
for many years and later Sena
tor Bourne's private secretary
in Washington.
"Mr. Prescott's letter should
be an inspiration to folks liv
ing in the residential districts
of Salem," said Chairman Gard.
"We cannot make an individual
house-to-house canvass over
Salem, although we know there
are a great many people who
want to purchase bonds and are
waiting for someone to call at
their homes. We just don't
have the people available for
this and urge that any such
home folks go to the nearest
sales agencies at once and buy
their bonds. If a man can send
way up here from Alabama to
get in under our quota, we urge
those people right at home to
do as much."

fairly good progress, the report
said.

Doubled in Year
Oregon's $110,131,209 indus

To Streamline
More Products
Washington, April 21 flJ.R)
Drastic simplification of con
sumers goods elimination of
all frills but stopping short" of
complete uniformity probably
will be undertaken soon, reli
able sources said today.
The far-reaching program is
on the desk of War Production
Chairman Donald M. Nelson.
Action on it is expected after
Arthur Whiteside, new head of
WPB's office of civilian supply,
takes over his duties later this
week.
Simplification of industrial
products already has been un
dertaken by WPB on a small
scale. Such products include
baby carriages, farm machinery,
feminine apparel, kitchen and
household articles, hand tools,
incandescent, fluorescent and
other electric discharge lamps,
paper and plumbing and heating
equipment.
One of the foremost objec
tives of the proposed new pro
gram, officials said, is the con
servation of manpower.

Over 700 Members
0fCCr Want 800 .
A steady drive over a period
of several months has netted
the Salem Chamber of Com
merce several hundred new
members and brings the total
up to over 700. The Chamber
started with a goal of 800, so
the campaign is now on the last
100. No limit, however, has
been placed on the number to
be enrolled.
The Chamber has made no
use of the "fireworks" method
of soliciting members, but has
pushed steadily ahead by the
contact system, and refusals
have been few when the ad
vantages of Chamber member
ship have been shown the pros
pects. All members of tho staff soli
cit memberships, and Mrs. Ilda
Bingcnhelmer is employed to
give her time exclusively to that
activity.
Members enrolled during each
week arc printed in the week

Roosevelt and
(Continued from page 1)
Casino, of course, were a high
spot of! the day.
Avila Camacho stressed the
solidarity" of Mexico and the
United States in the common
cause of destroying "the mach
inery of barbarism constructed
by the dictators.
But he implied clearly that
the contribution of Mexico with
her relatively small army, would
be chiefly "at home."
'Circumstances will determ
ine for each one of us," ha said,
the degree of direct participa
tion in active combat but there
is one thing which is in reach
of all: the carrying on the fight
immediately at home against
those evils which offend and
concern us in others."
Mutual Confidence
Both he and Mr. Roosevelt
took note of the way Mexico has
been turning out materials on
which American war plants feed
and sending her men across the
border to work on farms.
They exchanged mutual ex
pressions of pride and esteem,
and Mr. Roosevelt commented
on "the harmory and mutual
confidence which has prevailed
between our armies and navies."
"Brotherhood in arms has
been established," he said. Mex
icans and Americans have com
mon aspirations in the shaping
of a common victory and can
work together for a common
objective.
"Let us never lose our hold
upon that truth," he said. "It
contains within it the secret of
future happiness and prosperity
for all of us on both sides of
our unfortified border.
"Let us make sure that when
our victory is won, when the
forces of evil surrender and
that surrender shall be uncon
ditional then 'we, with the same
spirit and with the same united
courage, will face the task of
the building of a better world."
Mr. Roosevelt lauded the sys
tem of international cooperation
which has been worked out for
the western hemisphere and said
Mexico had played an outstand
ing role in forging it.

Pine Workers
Get Pay Raise
Washington, April 21 (U.B
Stabilization Director James F.
Byrnes has ruled against a price
increase for Pacific northwest
pine companies but has approv
ed a war labor board decision
granting wage increases of ap
proximately 7'4 cents an hour
for 26,800 workers employed by
pine companies in the area, it
was learned today. It was un
derstood that Byrnes left open,
however, the possibility that
some other form of relief might
be found for the companies.
His approval Required in
any WLB decision which may
involve an increase in prices
was needed in this case because
the companies sought a price
increase to offset the wage boost,
which was recommended by
the WLB's west coast lumber
commission.
The WLB's verdict was re
vealed last Saturday by Public
Member Wayne L. Morse, who
wrote a dissenting opinion in
which he joined the board's la
bor members in protesting that
the wage Increase should have
been higher.
Door Company Gets
Order to Reinstate
Portland, Ore., April 21 (U.R)
The Northwest Door company of
Tacoma was ordered by the West
Coast Lumber commission of the'
war labor board to reinstate,
with full pay for time off, an
employe whose discharge pre
cipitated a recent work stoppage
at the plant, it was announced
today.
The commission also ruled
that yellow warning slips, is
sued to three members pf the
company's cutter crew, should
be submitted to the union shop
committee. If the company's
complaints against employes
were not corrected, the lumber
commission ruled, the company
would have the right to dis
charge the workers in question,
after giving previous notice to
the shop committee.
