EMPIRE BUILDER TWO FIRES GIVE FOREST SERVICE LATE SEASON JOB Two additional late season forest fires were reported Sun day on the Rogue River National forest, officials here stated this morning, one being on Dutch Creek and the other north of Klamath Falls. Last week a fire broke out In the Applegate dis trict and was extinguished by a crew Thursday and Friday. The Dutch Creek fire was re ported by an employee of the forest service at Yreka, Calif., and two men were dispatched yesterday. The second fire is one which spread from a blaze which has covered between four and five hundred acres of marsh land bordering the lake north of Klamath Falls. A crew of men organized by Carl Brown, on whose land the fire originally was set, and two men and a pumper from the Rogue River forest service, are now working on the fire. Forest officials state that the marsh fires are hard to control since the dry tules are blown by the wind after starting to burn, spreading fire rapidly. FEDERAL COURT E Sessions of federal court which closed here Saturday morning were the first in many years without any cases on the docket which involved charges of sell ing liquor to Indians, court of ficials point out. So many of the cases were handled in past years that the officials began to con sider them 'almost a matter of routine. ,The theory has been advanc ed that the war Is largely re sponsible for there being no vio lations of this natune, since most of the younger Indian men are now in the army. Court recessed Saturday until early in February of next year when the spring term is sched uled. EAGLE PT. FRIDAY Eagle Point, Oct. 30 F. C.

RAIN IS BOON TO Rain which fell last night and today over most of the country, was hailed as beneficial by farmers, stockmen and orchard ists. The moisture, . if more comes, will put the ground in shape for fall plowing and seed ing, refresh pastures and start new grass and aid cover crops. The rain will lessen the forest fire hazards in the hills, and ir rigationists hope the precipita tion will be snow in the higher elevations, improving the water outlook for next season. Stockmen the past week or 10 days have been driving their cattle down from the mountain ranges where cold nights have frozen the ground, and cut down the grazing. . T FAILURE James W. Noble, charged with failure to report an auto acci dent, was fined $25 and costs in Justice of the Peace W. P. Tuck er's ;ourt Saturday. The com plaint was signed by Louie O.

IREWLESS BUHERJUpOK Washington, Oct. 30 (U.R) The agriculture department esti mated today that 1945 milk pro duction will top this year's by 1,000,000,000 pounds if govern ment subsidies to dairy farmers continue but that consumers can expect smaller supplies of butter and other dairy products next year. The department's bureau of agricultural economics said the chief reason for the anticipated drop was a decline in stocks of all manufactured dairy products and especially butter. On Jan uary 1, it estimated, these sup plies will be 2,750,000,000 pounds below those of a year earlier. dosing time tor Sunday Too Late to Classify 6:30 Saturday afternoon Please remember. hmim iiMfa (i ' Vvm ft kWiKfeMn THE NATIONAL ACCIDENT FATAL Maurice Eugene Imhauien passed away at a local hospital Saturday evening as a result of an accident that occurred while hp wns rpnairine an electric mo tor in his home last Wednesday evening.

Too Late to Classlfj 13.30 What Editors Say About WAYNE MORSE Has Kara Courage Oregon has the opportunity to send to the United States Senate a man with the capacity to become a statesman of the first rank in the person of Wayne Morfe. He is a man of high intelligence and of rare courage. His work in the field of labor relations has given him national distinction, so he will not have to wait for years to establish his place in the senale. The country will become his forum. Salem Statesman. Will Be "Best Ever" Senator Guy Cordon's warm endorse ment of Wayne Morse over the Rose burg radio last night was greeted with enthusiastic applause. And properly so, for here is a pair of Oregon men it would be hard to beat. Throwing in Harris Ellsworth for good measure, this state would then have the strongest representation in Washington, D. C, that we have ever had. "Ever" covers a lot of territory but that is precisely what we mean. Medord Mail-Tribune. Has Broad Views We think Morse was nominated by Oregon republicans because of his abil ity and training, his advocacy of a government of law as against a govern ment by men (the New Deal), his broad views on domestic and interna tional questions. " . Klamath Falls News. Stales Issues Honestly Wayne L. Morse makes a particularly strong running mate in his race for the full term. He has gone direct to the people honestly and frankly on issues in which they are vitally interested, and he courageously rested his fortunes on their decision. Grants Pass Bulletin.', Commands Respect His colleagues on the War Labor Board, as well as representatives of both management and labor, learned to have a wholesome respect for his force and independence. Newsweek. is Sane liberal His record indicates that if Mr. Morse were sent to the Senate he would give that body a new injection of plain speaking on what he describes as "sane liberalism" and Republicanism of "ac tion, not reaction." Washington Daily News. Does His Own Thinking He would reinstate a government by law and head off the trend toward government by men. In short, he is another who is doing his own thinking and not letting oil and labor or any other lobby do his thinking for him. We need desperately, we repeat more of that sort. Seaside Signal. Is Heal Spokesman What Wayne Morse said before he was nominated has significance that counts in the great national campaign now getting under full swing for the presi dential election. Extracts from his early speeches define the issues which now face the American people. There is no spokesman for the republican party who at any time during the last twelve years expressed more clearly or more forcefully what is at slake in the coming election. Morse is the real spokesman of the virile republicanism which today is the hope of America. Oregon Volet. tnded Waterfront Strife Wayne Morse is given credit by both labor and employers for so exercising fairness and sound judgment as labor arbitrator as to bring to the Pacifio Coast waterfront peace when It ns torn by labor strife. The Oregonian. Government by law He has demonstrated one sterling qual ity of principle ; he believes In a govern ment of laws and not of men. Astoria Budget. WAYNE MORSE for U. S. Senator felt D.
