Doing a Good Work
One cannot read or hear about the work being
carried on by the Blue Mountain Camp and Hos
pital Council without a feeling of pride in the
unselfish efforts of the people who are giving of
fheir time and substance to this worthy program.
But for the activity of the council the boys hospit
alized at McCaw and other hospitals of the dis
trict would find life humdrum, to say the least,
and perhaps in many instances there would be
doubt about the wisdom, of having offered their
lives in the cause of democracy and the American
way of life.
It is a matter of justifiable pride that we speak
of the part played in this splendid work by Mor
row county. Our people have subscribed generous
ly and not a few have devoted much of their time
to seeing that funds are expended in procuring the
most useful and serviceable articles to provide
comfort and recreation for the boys who are our
beneficiaries not of their own choosing. It has been
a source of genuine satisfaction to our county
chairman and her committee to be able to respond
when called upon for some worthy project. That
has been done repeatedly and in appreciation of
of the manner in which the funds have been ex
pended, some of our well-to-do citizens are seeing
to it that the fund does not run too low to permit
the committee to carry on in a substantial way.
A large hospital like McCaw Oeneral at Walla
Walla requires constant assistance in retaining
comforts and entertainment for the young patients
who are trying to regain their health, either to
return to military service or to carry on forthem
selves when released from government service.
That our people realize this is seen in the many
gifts of money and articles that go forth with
regularity.

Lamb Grower Forgotten Man
A lamb grower of the Pacific northwest could
vell look upon himself as the "forgotten man" in
sofar as the War Food Administration is concern
ed. Refusal by the WFA to remove lamb from the
ration list, at least until the enormous surplus is
reduced by natural processes, has created a situa
tion which the lamb growers are not inclined to
tolerate so long as they have the right to protest.
To date, Pacific Wool Growers and other agencies
have joined governors of Idaho, Washington and
Oregon in placing the seriousness of the lamb
i larket before Marvin Jones, of the War Food
Administration, but so far their petitions have
made no impressions on that worthy gentleman.
It has been pointed out to the administrator
fiat the dressed lamb market in this area is at a
cDmplete standstill with carcasses actually spoiling
