APPLIANCES & FURNITURE V Oregon, Saturday, Oct. 19, 1946 ol agriculture nas a solution. That is, become a vegetarian until prices come down. Large supplies of fruits and vegetables arc available at rel atively reasonable prices be cause of the large harvests of many crops. Farm officials pre dict there will be more coiv sumption of fruits and vegeta bles until meat, dairy and poul try prices drop. A record citrus crop is now starting to market. Apple pro duction in the northwest is above average, and the pear crop is much larger than usual. Prune supplies are large, grapes arc above average, and the cran berry harvest will set a new record. Oregon's pack of canned fruits will set a new record, too, with most of the large supplies going to civilians. Imports of trop ical fruits arc increasing. Supplies of potatoes, truck and fresh vegetables will be am ple. The onion crop is up 50 percent. Production of 13 veg etable crops is 3 percent more than the record established last fall, and 43 percent above aver age. However, production of green peas, carrots, cabbage and pos sibly tomatoes is below last year, although still above average. All of this means that prices of fruits and vegetables are be ing forced down. The OSC extension service says traders are getlting wor ried about consumer resistance to high prices of dairy prod ucts, particularly milk and but ter. But the shortage of mar garine, cooking fats and oils helps to keep butter prices up above 80 cents a pound. But ter sales are considerably less than a year ago, indicating housewives are using as little of it as they can. Cave-in Fatal to North Plains Man Hillsboro, Ore., Oct. 19 U. Roy T. Lcnover, 39, North Plains, was killed Friday by a cave-in on the new Sunset highway at Davis overhead crossing, west of Banks. Lenover, with his foreman, Fred Brown, was in the bottom of a pit, inspecting it, when a slab of clay and gravel slid in from the side of the pit. Len over, who was buried up to his chest, was dead by the time workmen dug him out. Brown, who was caught by the legs, freed himself. Nursing Force of Army Short by 750 Uncle Sam's army is still 750 nurses short of the 1,000 that the war department recently announced were needed to fill existing shortages. A report from Brig. Gen. W. A. Hagins, Sixth army surgeon, today stated that the need for addi tional nurses was still impera tive with only 250 having re turned lo active duty since the war department made its an nouncement. Applications for recall into the army nurses corps are still obtainable at the surgeon's of fice at the Presidio at San Fran cisco. Nurses, who are mar ried, have dependents under 14 years of age, arc on limited duty or have an efficiency index score of less than 35 will not be considered for duty at this time. Or '4 Chief Says o Be Careful Winter months mean greater traffic hazards to unwary pe destrians, Chief of Police Frank A. Minto said Saturday in urg ing persons who walk to exer cise greater care to avoid ac cidents. "Longer hours of darkness and decreased visibility, due to rain, fog or other inclement weather conditions, increase the danger to the pedestrian who fails to assume responsibility for his own safety in traffic," Chief Minto said. "It is import ant that every person who walks in the city, or in rural areas for that matter, should realize that drivers may not be able to see him in time to avoid an acci dent." Chief Minto said figures re cently compiled in the office of Robert S. Farrell, Jr., secretary of state, indicated that the ra tio of pedestrian fatalities to all traffic fatalities increases con siderably during winter months. "During the first quarter of 1946, Farrell's figures show that pedestrian fatalities amounted lo 47 percent of all fatalities. But during the second quarter of this year, pedestrian fatalities constituted only 24 percent ol the total fatal accidents report ed in Oregon." With traffic deaths for the first half of 1946 nearly 60 per cent greater than the death toll for the same period of 1945, the need for greater care in walking and driving is obvious, Chief Minto declared. He urged all pedestrians lo accept respon sibility for their own safety in traffic by crossing streets only at intersections, waiting on the curb for approaching cars to pass, especially at night, and to avoid the dangerous practice of stepping out into the street from between parked cars. urivers, said me chief, can do their part by yielding the right of way to pedestrians in crosswalks and by being on the alert for persons on foot in the vicinity of schools, churches and other public gathering places.

Portland, Oct. 19 Wl Oregon cities want 15 per cent of gaso line lax moneys and 10 per cent of liquor revenues. A demand to that effect was voted yesterday at the conclud ing session of the 21st annual convention of the League of Or egon Cities, representing 182 cities. Delegates said the cities bear much of the policing cost that results from sale of liquor and that one-third of the auto travel that finances the gasoline tax is on city streets. Cities now get five per cent of the state gas tax. The public welfare commission gels most of the liquor revenue. , Other recommendations: Legislation to equalize the tax burden, principally through ad justment of "inadequate" prop erty assessments. Channeling of four cents of the five-cent-a-gallon aviation fuel tax to cities operating mu nicipal airports. At present the state board of aeronautics gets one cent, purchasers are refund ed the other four cents. A national housing agency of ficial, Gene M. Conger, told the league that the U. S. probably would build 1,500,000 new hous es next year. HAVE? Arc you habit of in the going i around with a frow n all the lime?

Strayer, Baker, who died Friday morning, the state elections division announced Friday afternoon after confer ring with Attorney General George Neuner. The committees cannot meet for at least six days. The names of Ihe nominees will be printed on stickers, which will be at tached to the election ballots when they are distributed to voters. Strayer, a democrat, was un opposed in the November 5 gen eral election, since he also won the republican nomination at the primary election. The attorney general's advice was sought to determine whe ther the republican committee could name a candidate, inas much as Strayer had both nonv inations.
