The loss was estimated today at $11,000 to $12,000. No Insur ance was carried, said Ronald DeVore. Mr. DcVore's son. Up set over the loss and busy get ting fresh meat supplies, his father had made no plans re garding rebuilding or restora tion of the plant, young DeVore said. The plant supplied Mr. De Vore'i retail City Meat Market. Some, wholesale business was also done. Young DeVore was of the be lief that the fire started in the smoke house. Bacon was being smoked and Mr. DeVore theor ized that a piece of bacon drop ped into the fire, causing a flare which Ignited grease and then the rafters and other wooden parts of the structure. No one was at the plant at the time. The building was completely remodeled last spring and was considered among the most mod em in the state and reasonably fire proof. The walls were of concrete and the roof was of metal but interior parts were wood. The interior burned fur iously and the roof collapsed. Ammonia escaping from the cooling system was ignited and added to the Intensity of the blaze. The fire consumed about $1. 000 worth of beef, bacon, lard and other meats and meat pro ducts. Only the ice machine was saved. A new cooling unit, to gether with an old one, was al io destroyed. The state forest patrol sent a crew and a pumper to the fire but the blaze had so good a start that little could be done The forest firefighters, however, helped in saving the ice unit- Astoria, Ore., Aug. 29.

The German and Italian for eign ministers. Von Ribbentrop and Count Ciano, met in Vienna today with representatives of Rumania and Hungary to try to compose the volcanic quarrel re sulting from the Hungarian claim to Rumanian Transylva nia. A Balkan war might easily grow out of this fight, and that might represent a catastrophe for the axis powers. There are two vital reasons why Hitler and Mussolini must maintain peace on the peninsu la. One is that they must have the vast supplies of war mater ials and foodstuffs which they get from the Balkans. The other is even more important that of keeping Russia in hand. Tha Red Sphinx The ways of the Sphinx of Moscow. Josef Stalin, are all but inscrutable but not quite The axis partners have given in dications that they suspect him of Intending to increase his in fluence through the Balkan sit uation. Indeed, some observers believe there is a chance he may become involved In war against the axis, and that is something which Mean Hitler and Musso lini must head off at all cost un til the battle of Britain Is settled. The tenseness of the situation in the Balkans, and the great potentialities of damage to the axis cause, undoubtedly have i had considerable to do with Hit ler's delay in his major attack ! on England. J Angle Franco Hat While Hitler and Mussolini are finding a threat in the Bal kans, the increasing hostilitv of the French government to Bri tain shows signs of being a pos sible breeder of difficulties for England. The charge by the Petain gov- j eminent that Britain is inspir-i ing rebellion In the former's African empire is the latest de velopment in a feud which has ! swelled In bitterness ever since the allied collapse in the battle of Flanders. The accusation If based on the decision of tht French colony of Chad In Cen-: tral Africa to side with England j rather than with Petain. The quarrel really goes back to the early days of the German I drive fiffainct th nlli in Kan we heard unofficial allegations by each side that the other fel low wasn't pulling his weight in the fighting.
