Washington, D. C, July 17. Pro
viding congress approves (and it has
not yet disapproved anything in the
way of an appropriation) the U. S.
maritime commission will soon be
given another fund of $1,698,000 with
which to construct 566 vessels of
various types and sizes, all of which
would be completed next year and
in 1943. Out of the 566 ships the
Columbia river area will have an
allotment. The Oregon Shipbuilding
Co. will undoubtedly receive some
and these is a prospect of new
yards being given orders at Van
couver, Rainier, Portland and As
toria. Yards at Coos Bay and Til
lamook may be included.
The commission has heretofore
preferred expanding existing yards
(as at the Oregon Shipbuilding Co.
plant) to financing new ways, but if
the present bill is enafcted the com
mission will require 48 additional
ways and to recondition old ship
yards. The new ways will give the
Columbia river area an opportunity
to have at least two new yards, pos
sibly three. The problem of steel
enters into the situation and there
may be such a shortage that the
commission may abandon its present
policy of all-steel ships and order
some wooden boats. This would be
a concession to Oregon and Wash
IS THERE
Then make a date
with your refrigerator
and serve sherbet,
punch or a
new ice cream
By Kathleen Robertson
(From McCall's Magazine)
Are you looking forward to hav
ing a party in your house? A church
social, perhaps, or a graduation
party or even a wedding?
Perhaps you are looking forward
to it with mingled feelings. It will
be nice, of course but think of all
those people in the house! And all
wanting to eat and drink at the
same time!
Well, just about the time when
the prospect begins to look more
threatening than pleasant, make a
date with your refrigerator and
cheer up. Your problems are prac
tically all solved because your
refrigerator will keep the date and
turn out for you the perfect party
refreshment for any crowd.
What's more, it will turn out
something so "different" that the
party will be long remembered and
everybody will be asking for the
recipe.
For instance, add dash to the
menu with a delicately tart milk
Bherbet. The deep dessert tray of
one of the new automatic refrig
erators will serve 12. The new au
tomatic refrigerators have other
good features, such as a huge freez
ing section for ice and frosted
foods.

surprises in store. American offi

been so dramatized as the latter.
Wake island will be ready for oc

station eonstructed there and while
it is not completed, the first of the

in some three weeks. Midway is

and little Johnson and Christmas
islands.
Western congressmen are busy
taking polls of their constituents by
the post card method to ascertain
what the people think about going to
war or keeping out. Many of these
polls have not been completed, but
the tabulation to date shows de
cided opposition to war in the Pa
cific northwest and in the middle
west. President Roosevelt's own
congressional district voted against
war and his own precinct of Hyde
Park found only six people favoring
war. A poll in New York city, con
ducted by a newspaper, gave a
slight edge for war, but New York
contains the greatest foreign popu
lation of any spot in the United
States, and they reflect the bitter
ness of European peoples.

which sweep down from Bering sea
almost wrecked the steamer the day
it landed in a small cove and the
ship had to be beached, as it had
lost its anchors. One of the import
ant pieces of equipment at this
naval air base will be meteorological
instruments, for knowledge of the
weather is very important in de
fense of Alaska. It is important that
this particular station be completed
before winter, and workmen are
operating in shifts. Special clothing

be stationed there, a barren island

Building the underground retreats
is a real struggle. This is only one

Complaints continue pouring in
from farmers who want workers to
pick fruit. Washington-county far
mers wanted all WPA work sus
pended in that county and those on
relief projects released .. for farm
work. They said the WPA workers
would solve their problem and stat
ed that they needed 1.500 men. A
check-up disclosed that there were
only 75 on WPA in Washington
county and these were men .mostly
50 years or more. The entire state
of Oregon is now credited with 6,
500 on WPA, a cut from S,000. To
handle access roads on the defense
program is is necessary to establish
camps and ship WPA workers to
the job. At present WPA in Oregon
is rushing the Wilson river road and
the Wolf creek road and hopes to
open them and have a formal cele
bration about Sept. 1.

4-H Members Get
10,000 Pheasant Eggs
4-H club members in western
Oregon alone have received more
than 10,000 Chinese pheasant eggs to
be hatched by them this season in
carrying out pheasant raising club
projects. The eggs are distributed
by the state game commission to
boys and girls who hatch the eggs
and grow the young pheasants until
they are 10 to 12 weeks old, when
they are returned to the state game
commission which pays 75 cents per
bird. These birds are later liberated
by the commission.
Benton county received the larg
est number of eggs, a total of 4290.
Next was Douglas county with 3696
followed by Marion county with "696
