MILITARY PACTS
New York, Oct. 29. (U.R)
Former President Herbert
Hoover and Hugh Gibson said
today that military alliances
"are wholly an ineffective ma
chinery for maintaining lasting
peace" and that such an alliance
between Great Britain and the
United States might be particu
larly disastrous for the post-war
world. . .
Mr. Hoover and Gibson, writ
ing in the current issue of Col
liers, urged a transition period
between the victory and the
establishment of a world peace
plan, with the machinery of
government directed through
continued - collaboration of the
United Nations.

JACKSON CO. TAXPAYERS
PAY UP FOR DISCOUNT
' Taxpaying continues in fair
volume at the tax collection de
partment of the sheriff's office.
If paid before November 15, a
discount of three per cent is
granted for payments in full.
Half payments are allowed a
one per cent discount. No dis
count is given on quarterly pay
ments.' A large percentage of
payments are for the full 1843
1944 tax year, and the higher
discount. '
" Sheriff Syd I. Brown said to
day, "It is better for taxpayers
to make their payments early
than all rush in on November
14, and on the final day
November 15."

OREGON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1943
Washington. Oct. 29. U.B
K. C. Eldredge, a Portland, Ore.,
grocer, today estimated before
the House Agriculture commit
tee that "nuisance regulations"
on the sale of oleomargarine cost
him $2,200 per year and con
stitute a "burden that Is both
unjust and unfair."
Complicated treasury restric
tions substantially the same as
are required of a narcotics
dealer compel large margarine
wholesalers to pay a $200 yearly
tax, employ at least one extra
person to handle records, result
in undue spoilage, and waste
gasoline and rubber, he said in
asking repeal of margarine
taxes.
Eldredge said one restriction
makes it necessary for a sales
man to bring each margarine
order to the company s central
office, where a complicated card
and tax return file is made
out before "so much as a pound
can be delivered." No telephone
or mail orders can be accepted,
he said, nor can margarine be
delivered before card and tax
forms have been filled out.
"If one food product that goes
over the counter to the house
wife is taxed," he asked, "why
shouldn't they all be?"
TALENTlRGLAR
TAKES OVER $100
A 10-cent slot machine con
taining an estimated $100 was
removed from Long's cafe in
Talent Wednesday night by bur
glars who also stole $10 in
nickels, $3 in dimes from the till,
a .32-calibre revolver and an
undetermined amount of gum,
cigarettes and candy, state police
and the sheriff's office reported
today.
An attempt was also made to
break open a 5-cent slot machine,
after it was dragged into the
back room, but it was unsuccess
ful, police said. No trace has
been found of the heavy 10-cent
machine and no clues to the
burglary were uncovered, police
stated.
Entrance to the establishment
was effected by prying oft a
screen on a back window and
opening the latter through a hole
in the glass. It was the second
time in the past three 'months
the place has been burglarized.

President Roosevelt said today
that he expects to send his long
awaited food message to con

The president told his news
conference he would devote part
of his message to emphasizing
the successful manner in which
lend-lease in reverse is operat

Australia is providing enough
beef and veal to feed all of our

The total amount of this beef
and veal, he said, equals the
amount being sent out of the
