'Bumpus' Prize Winning Lamb Returned to Little Mistress "I was thrilled to death and am Just about the happiest girl In the Rogue valley," said 13-year-old Patty von der Hellen when she learned that her 79-pound showmanship champion wether lamb, "Bum pus." bad been returned to her. Patty'a lamb did not "follow her to school one day." but It did follow her to the Jackson county 4-H club show held here last week, and there It was Judged a perfect specimen. But a rule of all shows and 4-H clubs Is that fat stock entered In the an nual exhibit must be sold at auction when the event Is terminated. So Patty tearfully put her pet on the block and Hanoe C. Cleland. presi dent of the California Oregon Power company outbid numerous callers for the Iamb by his offer of SS cents a pound. The Copco chief had Intended to present the sheep to his son as a pet, but instead returned It to Patty, who plans to enter him In the Pacific International show In Portland on October 7. It Is doubtful that the high bidder will be as sympathetic toward a pet ae Mr. Cleland, and once again the Medford Junior high school student will bid "Bum pus" a sad farewell, for the same rule that fat stock must be sold at the con clusion of a show also applies In Portland. ago. Churchill declared: "The Courageous was attended by four destroyers, but two had to eo and hunt a U-boat which was at tacking merchant shipping." "When the Courageous turned Into the wind at dusk to enable her own aircraft to land on her deck, by a 100 to l chance ahe was attacked by a U-boat on an unpredictable course." he continued. "But this stroke of war in no way diminishes our confidence In meth ods which are now at our disposal. Our confidence has grown with every day they have been employed.

Patty said, but It certainly took a lot of time to teach him showman ship and to teach him manners nec essary for entering an exhibit." Patty's mother, Mrs. Carl von der Hellen, stated that she believed it was the first time In history that a sheep that was meant to be eaten after an auction ever came back alive to the original owner. She went on to explain that another rule prohibits owners from bidding on their own animals. The white, wolly animal was born last March and Is a purebred South down, Patty said. "Her mother died Just three weeks before the 4-H show last week and X felt very bad about that." the little girl said. Patty Intends to go to Portland with "Bumpus" on her own, Mrs. von der Hellen said. According to live stock Judges and others who know the sheep, Patty will no doubt re turn to her ranch home In Eagle Point with several new laurels, for It ts hardly possible that a 4-H show manship champion could be over looked, even at the Pacific lntr- "Bumpus" wasn't much trouble to national.

This Is now In full operation both ways. "Our second reply to the U-boats attack la to arm all our merchant vessels and fast liners with de fensive armaments against both U boats and airplanes. For a fortnight armed ships have been continually leaving the harbors In large num bers." "A third reply," he continued, "Is of course the British attack on the U-boat. This Is being delivered with the utmost vigor and intensity. "By the end of October we expect to have three times the hunting forces which was operating at the outbreak of the war." He added the six or seven sub marines which Britain maintains al ready have been destroyed consti tuted "one-tenth of the German submarine fleet or one quarter or possibly one-third of the U-boats actively employed" by Germany. "In the first fortnight of the war we have seized and converted to our own use 67,000 tons more German merchandise than have been aunk In our ships," he said. Losses Diminish "In the first week we lost 06,000 tons, the second week 46.000 tons, the third week 21,000 tons. In the last six days Just 9,000 tons." The house cheered uproariously. Churchill went on to declare that one submarine commander who had sent him a personal message by the crew of a sunken ship "is now In our hands." He praised the fleet air arm and the- royal air force alike for playing Important parts "in this stern war fare" against undersea attackers. The members roared and cheered when Churchill declared "the U-boats now seem to prefer neutral shipping to our own." He referred to several sinkings of neutral ships by submarines in the last few days. Prime Minister Chamberlain told commons last Friday's allied war council In England resulted In agree ment "on the procedure for co-ordinating and perfecting" munitions and supplies plans by Britain and France. Russian Move Discussed In his fourth war-time report to the house, Chamberlain also launch ed anew Into the effects of the Rus sian Invasion of Poland but said Soviet troops apparently had not yet "occupied all the territory alloted to them tinder the arrangement (with Germany) which amounts to more than half the total area of the Po lish republic." He called particular attention to the fact the German-Soviet line of demarcation running through the middle of Poland "brings the Soviet forces up to the suburbs of Warsaw MILLING WW CLEANING GRINDING ROLLING MIXING You can depend upon a first class job if your work it done in our modern and effi cient milling plant. Price are competitive. GIVE U3 A TRIAL and leaves the. . . . Polish oil fields In Soviet control." Chamberlain then declared "sud- pllea of finished munitions, raw ma terials ana roodstuffs from the do minions are beli.g mad available In ever Increasing volume for the com mon cause. But the prime minister warned against over-optimism as to choking on uermany s supplies. Germany already possesses stocks of raw materials which she requires v import ana quick results therefore cannot be expected from the (Brlt- ini ministry of commercial war fare." he said. Much Contraband Taken Nevertheless, he continued. If Brit ain through this ministry "can pre-' .ii. uennsny irom importing raw materials essential for the function ing of her war Industries the reauit will be to effectively cripple her power to prolong hostilities." Chamberlain added that "our com mand of the sea meant that from the day war broke out Germany was cut off from many of her sources of supply, and figures for the first three weeks of war show that we have selied about 268.000 tons of goods, as to which there was evidence that they were contraband consigned to Germany." "These Include some 02.000 tons of petroleum products, 6S.O0O tons of Iron ore and 27,000 tons of man ganese ore," he added. He branded as false the German claims the British contraband control would have no effeot on Germany but would merely strangle neutral trade.
