The bank's monthly report on Ore gon's labor situation said the- increas ed employment was accounted Tor In the main by greater activity In the lumber and wood product Unea, and textile Industries. i Lumber output was stimulated con siderably by new orders, which have held to hi pli levels all this year. Even with greater production there ts still an accumulation of unfilled orders. There waa some rise in wages, and in consequence of both higher wages and broader employment, total pay rolls advanced still further. The bank'a Index for employment stood at 67 per cent of the 1923-1925 monthly average, and the payroll In dex at 64 per cent. Adjusted for sen sorial variation, these tndecea were 77 and 62 respectively, compared with 75 and 61 for January. In the lumber and wood products Industry, employment rose to 53 per cent of the 1923-1925 actual average, fmm 51 In January, and payrolls to 42 from 36. The seasonally adjusted lndeces In the lumber Industry rose to 68 for employment from 63, and 50 for aggregate money paid, from 49. The aggregate Increase In employ ment for all 118 firms surveyed was 8 per cent over a year ago. Payrolls Increased 16 per cent. In the lumber Industry employment increased about 10 per cent and payrolls about 16 per cent. Monterey Pattern Furnishings Will Be Home Feature A. B.

LETTERS OF PIONEER OREGONiAN FOUND IN ED COLLEGE CACHE PORTLAND, Ore., March 28. (AP) The discovery of documents which should be of great Importance In the study of the history of the Pacific northwest was revealed by officials of Reed college here today. The author of the documents was Simeon G. Reed, from whose fortune came the funds with which the col lege waa founded. Included are near ly all letters written by Reed from 1868 to 1889, as well as many letters to him. Several boxes of the letters and documents were found stored away under the floor of one of the classrooms. Described by Dr. Blair Stewart, as sistant professor of economics at Reed college, as "one of the most out standing and colorful characters of the pioneer era," Reed apparently had an interest in practically every Im portant industry in early Oregon ex cept banking. He made most of his money in mining, but probably la bast known for his connection with the Oregon Steam Navigation com pany, of which he was mannger. He was one of the outstanding breeders of fine cattle and horses in Oregon, owning 14 farms, many of them of considerable size. He dealt extensive ly In real estate. f Lawnmowers time to get them sharpened and repaired; ca'led for and delivered. Medford Cyclery. 23 N Pir. Phone 261. Use Mai Tribune want ads.
