is over; they intend continuing in plants of the northwest, for fully
operation to put Alcoa out of bus-j half of all aluminum produced will
1 come from Bonneville-Grand Coulee
power. Over-advertised TV A, where
much was expected, has almost no
power and is depending on steam
plants. This is a result of water
shortage. This is so serious that the
S.S. Normandie (French ship seized
by the coast guard) may be taken
to Mobile and used to provide pow
er either that or an obsolete battleship.
Washington, D. C, June 5. With
in a few months a great aluminum
plant will be built in the Columbia
valley with money furnished by RFC
and operated by the government.
The enterprise will be larger than
the Alcoa plant at Vancouver or the
Reynolds Metals Co. at Longview.
No site has been selected, and it
may be placed anywhere Grand I
Coulee, Puget sound, or right at the
site of Bonneville. This will be the
first time that the government has
ever directly invaded the aluminum
industry,' but having made up its
mind it is planning to compete in a
big way. Nor has it the purpose of
certain power-minded officials to
close the plant when the emergency
More than 50 percent of all the
aluminum manufactured in the
months to come will go into air
planes, with another large percent
age going to the navy as the fighting
ships are equipped to shield them
against bomb divers. A smaller am
ount will go to the steel industry for
alloying and deoxidizing purposes.,
What aluminum goes to commercial
channels you can put in your eye;
that is out, and vacuum cleaners,
pots, pans, refrigerator trays will be
made of something else.
Thousands of massive bombers
have been ordered in recent weeks.
It is difficult to keep track of the
airships, so many statements have
been issued, but it is possible to
check through the pilots. Army air
corps has been turning out 12,000
a year and this will be upped to
30,000 beginning next month. There
is a bomber or fighting plane for
every pilot. That gives an idea of
uie army air torce. ay next year
you can stand outside any time of
1he day and , see them droning over
the house; they will be as numerous
as that, and constantly increasing in
numbers, regardless of the bombers
flying in England. Back of all these,
of course, will be the aluminum

day from Portland where she has
been for some time and will remain
for the summer.

Feeding the British is one of the
major tasks assumed by the admin
istration under the' lend-lease bill.
Observers from Britain say that the
people have become accustomed' to
being bombed and accept it as a
matter of course, although many are
killed, but the food question is an
other matter. It is calculated at the
present rate, unless food supplies
arrive earlier, January will see the
British hungry, and a hungry man
cannot fight. While the administra
tion is trying to poke the production
of planes, tanks and munitions into
greater activity another government
agency is busy purchasing food and
sending it abroad. Trainloads have
been sent to Atlantic ports and ship
ped overseas.
In this field farmers of the north
west are benefitting to some extent.
The government put in a call for
berries, black, logan and young, but
learned that there is no surplus; the
canneries require every pound to fill
their own orders for domestic and
overseas supplies. Demand for prunes
for the British is also increasing.
Growers of tomatoes have been
asked by the government to increase
their acreage 10 percent, for canned
tomatoes have vitamins needed for
American troops and British civil
ians. Dried beans are being snapped
up for the army and overseas.
Under , parity payments approved
by the president Canadians can pay
four cents a bushel and dump their
wheat on the American market. To
prevent this destruction of the home
market the president, by proclama
tion, has limited the amount of
wheat importations. Canada can
ship in 785,000 bushels, or all but
5,000 of the total amount. With par
ity payments of 85 cents, and other
payments, the wheat price is around
97 cents.
One of the troubles of farmers is
labor. Available labor has been
drafted or gone to the cities to work
in plants with government orders.
The selective service has ordered
local boards to be careful about
drafting farm help, but nothing can
be done about labor going to cities
where wages are higher.
While the army is reaching out
for pilot material, the NYA is open
ing up vocational training schools in
every state, in every large city, tea
ching boys and men the use of tools;
the first principles of shipbuilding,
airplane making, iron work. The
government is spending $150,000,000
to train men to work on ships, in
airplane factories, in plants with or
ders for tractors, tanks and anti
aircraft guns, and to build up a res
ervoir of mechanics for the ground
crews needed at all airports, of
which a half dozen are already es
tablished in Oregon and Washing
ton, with more to follow. It is be
ing proposed that CCC and NYA be
merged, as they are competing with
each other for the same group of
boys. Addition of the CCC, how
ever, is not favored in the north'
west. ,

Accidents Decrease
In Face of Auto Rise
Improvement in Oregon's traffic
accident situation for the first four
months of 1941 compared to the
same period in 1940 is shown by the
traffic death rate, showing the num
ber of persons killed in relation to
the exposure to accidents, according
to word from the secretary of state's
office today.
The death rate so rar this year
is 10.6 persons killed per one hun
dred million miles of travel, com
pared to a rate of 12 for the corres
ponding period last year.
The decrease in the death rate in
dicates the improvement in driving
and walking practices of Oregon cit
izens because in spite of a strong
increase in the use of motor vehi
cles, the fatality ratio dropped, it
was said. Motor vehicle use increas
ed nearly 17 percent during the first
four months of this year.
