Portland Budget Stands Portland, Nov. 16. iP) The county tax supervising and con servation commission's recom mendation that $180,500 be cut from the city of Portland's 1940 budget was ignored by the city council proved budget. yesterday when it ap its original $6,211,165 Lumber company today revealed plans for a logging railway con necting the Sisters district and Bend, and tapping a giant-stand of pine expected to supply com pany mills for many years. $1,497,792,177.00 Plan Logging Road. Bend, Ore.. Nov. 16. (U.R) Bend's huge Brooks - Scanlon FROM RAIN LACK LESS W Fricasseed Chicken I I Normal Rain and Tempera tures Help Western Sec tion; Give Crop Estimates Portland, Nov. 16. (P) Nor mal rainfall and temperatures provided western Oregon with satisfactory farming conditions, but eastern Oregon suffered from lack of moisture, the fed eral agricultural marketing sur vey said in its monthly report today. October moisture was but 70 per cent of normal last month in the east of the mountains country and only 57 per cent of normal for the preceding three months. Many farmers who in tended to seed wheat this fall will wait until spring. Eastern pasture conditions were unfav orable and especially poor in Jefferson, Wasco, Sherman, Gil liam and Morrow counties. Crop Estimates Rise. Corn crop estimates, although less than average, were up slightly frpm a month ago. Pro duction was set at about 1,767, 000 bushels compared with 1, 595,000 in 1938 and 1,904,000, the average. Oregon's 1939 potato crop was estimated at 7,200,000 bushels, the same as a month ago. Last year's crop was approximately 7,310,000. Western Oregon yields were better than 1938 but the increase was offset by lighter production in Crook, Deschutes and Klamath sections. Wash ington production was down 4 per cent but Idaho's jumped 3 per cent. The northwest's 23,650,000 bushel apple crop represented a 14 per cent drop from last year and a 24 per cent decline from the 10-year average. Oregon's 2,000,000 bushels were 24 per cent under 1938 and 29 per cent under the average. Peart Underl938. The region's pear production was placed at 20.009,000 bush els, again 22,500,000 last season. In Oregon the production of both Bartletts and other vari eties was little different than a year ago. The walnut crop ranged around 4300 tons, slightly more than earlier forecasts. Although production was 22 per cent less than 1938, the crop was the state's second largest. Oregon and Washington produced 3710 tons of filberts, an increase of more than 1000 tons since last year. The two states reported the 20,000-barrel cranberry crop was 19 per cent under 1938. SEA SEEPS INTO FLORIDA'S WELLS Miami, Fla., Nov. 16. (JP) Apparently no one realized when 440 miles of canals were built through the everglades in an effort to reclaim those south ern Florida wastelands for farm ing that the project would threaten to bring salt to some drinking water of the state's tourist trade. But that is just what it has done, it seems, and today offic ials were hard at work on the problem of keeping faucets fresh without undoing years of labor already spent building up the marshland. Salt infiltration in drinking water caused shutdown of seven of the 15 wells in Miami and alarmed coastal cities as far north as Palm Beach, although the supply was adequate for cur rent demands. Preliminary investigation In dicated the delicate underground water balance had been dis turbed, sea water was backing into the canals and then seeping into the fresh water wells. DEEP rich chicken flavor Is not difficult to obtain when prepar ing a fricassee and it la well worth the extra trouble. Place the pieces of chicken In a two quart glass saucepan and add boiling water to half cover. Adjust saucepan cover and cook chicken gently for two to three hours, according to age. The flexible top burner of a modern gas range does tna trick on almost no fuel because the burner may be ad justed to simmer an will retail that temperature accurately. Add salt after the first hour When chicken Is tender, removi from stock and roll in one-halt cut flour mixed with one teaspoon poul try seasoning. Fry in butter In I skillet until golden brown. Thicket stock and add one-third cup cream bring to boiling point. Pour ovei chicken and serve with hot bisculti or fluffy dumpllner OF FINALLY GOMES TRUE San Francisco. Nov. 16. (JP) The prospector's constant dream of a rich pocket of gold somehow overlooked by the mining experts was confirmed in part today in an Eldorado mine where a pocket believed to contain $1,000,000 of the prec ious metal has been discovered hardly 300 feet below the surface. Walter W. Bradley, chief of the mining division of the state department of natural resources said $600,000 in gold already has been taken out of the pocket in the old Alhambra Shumway mine at Kelsey. It had been worked for 50 years, yet one of the richest finds ever made in the state was comparatively near the surface. The find came to light here because of suspicion of officials at the U. S. mint that an un usually large shipment of gold could not have come from one mine. Always on the lookout for irregularities which might trace to the "high-graders," who deal in gold stolen from rich ore mines, they asked for an investi gation. John F. Bongard, chief in spector for the state division mines checked on the Alhambra and said the gold was there all right. FEES TO CLERGY Madrid, Nov. 16. (JP) The government today restored to the Spanish clergy the payment of incomes by the state, a prac tice put into effect by the Vati can concordat of 1851 and sus pended by the Spanish republic after the revolution of 1931. In addition to the 62,000,000 pesetas (about $6,200,000 at cur rent rate) fixed by the 1851 con cordat at the state's annual ap propriation to the clergy, today's decree appropriated additional funds to repair damage done to church property during the civil war. General Franco said the ob ject of today's decree was to re pair to recognize "the sacrifices by the liberal government" and to recognize "the sacrifices of the clergy who cooperated so effectively with the nationalist crusade." t Dogwood Blooms Mill City, Ore., Nov. 16,fP) Nature played tricks here to day and dogwood trees put out white blossoms after the leaves turned red and dropped off. IS Boston, Nov. 16. (IP) Are Violet and Daisy Hilton, the famous Siamese twins, two per sons or one? The American Guild of Va riety Actors (AFL) wrestled with this problem today and called a meeting of its executive com mittee in an effort to decide it. Thomas D. Senna, business agent for the guild, maintained that the girls, now circus per formers, should apply separately for membership in the guild and pay individual dues. He maintained it for hours in an argument with the twins last night, but they refused to agree and Senna refused to issue a joint membership card to them. Violet and Daisy, who have been joined together by a spinal growth since their birth in Eng land, contended they had been denied marriage licenses in 20 states on the ground they legally were one, not two. Violet was married once in Texas, but she described that as a "publicity stunt" and said the marriage soon was annulled. New G. O. P. Treasurer Portland, Nov. 16 UP) Law rence R. Teeple was elected yes terday to . succeed Lloyd R. Smith, new state corporation commissioner, as treasurer of the Republican state central committee, Chairman Kern Crandall announced. He former ly was chairman. Closing time lor loo bate to Claa slfy Ada ta 1 :30 p m Business Upturn Bringing Fiscal Year's Revenue Near Last Year's Figure Washington. Nov. 16. (Pi Federal receipts passed S2.000. 000.000 today, but, at the same time, expenditures crossed the $3,500,000,000 mark. In the fiscal year which be gan July 1, the treasury said. it has now received $2,015,951,- 947 and has spent $3,513,744,124, creating a deficiency of $1,497.-792,177. Although it has been true throughout the fiscal year so far, expenditures were a little ahead of last year and receipts a little behind, revenues swollen by better business were narrow ing the margin between this year and last. Income Tax Lags. The revenue total was $58, 000,000 behind last year, but miscellaneous internal revenue, the tax bracket which reacts most readily to business im provement because it is made up largely of excise taxes on manu factured products, was $82,000,- 000 ahead of last year. Social security and customs revenues also were ahead of last year, but income taxes were far be hind. Changes in income tax collections lag almost a yenr be hind business ch.mges. The growing deficit has caused the public debt to increase to a new record of $41,205,727,831. Secretary Morgenthau said re cently it was up to congress to see how close the figure was getting to the statutory -limit of S45.000.000.000 -ind act on a proposed increase. Big Sum Mailed To Sugar Beet Growers Salt Lake City, Nov. 16.
