Eagle Point, Ore.
Gross revenues from the sale
of power developed at the Bonne
ville and Grand Coulee power
plants passed the $50,000,000
mark on December 1, 1944, the
fifth anniversary of the energiza
tion of the first Bonneville high
voltage transmission line, Bonne
ville Power Administrator Paul
3. Raver announced Dec. 9.
This revenue was derived
from the sale of more than 21,-
000,000.000 kilowat hours of
power to Pacific northwest war
industries, military establish
ments. . Dublic agencies and
nrivate utility systems.
Durinz its first five years of
system operation, the Bonneville
power administration accumu
lated a net surplus in excess of
$12,000,000 after payment of an
power costs, operation ana main
tenance expenses, depreciation
and interest on the federal in
vestment in. the Bonneville
Grand Coulee transmission grid
and power facilities at the two
Columbia river plants.
In the five years since Decem
ber 1, 1939, when the first trans
mission line was energized from
Bonneville dam to the Portland
Vancouver area, the Bonneville
power administration has ex
tended the federal transmission
system to include 55 substations
and more than 2,700 miles of
high-voltage transmission lines.
Approximately 19,000,000,000
kilowatt-hours have been sold
since the Japanese attack on
Pearl Harbor. During the three
years that the United States has
been at war, rated capacity of
the two Columbia river power
plants has been increased from
839,000 kilowatts to 1,326,000
kilowatts approximately 50 per
cent of the entire present capa
city of the five northwest states
of Oregon, Washington, Idaho,
Montana and Utah.

TO CUT DISEASE
Chicago (U.R) Eighty-three
per cent of all milk-borne dis
ease occurs in cities of less than
10,000 population and 95 per
cent of all milk-borne disease
occurs In cities of less than 25,
000, according to the Journal of
the American Veterinary Medi
cal Assn.
"The cause is Incomplete su
pervision of the milk supply
which is due to the fact that
smaller communities feel they
can not afford.to paymore than
$200 a year for the duties of a
health- officer," .the Journal
states.
Most of America's smaller
communities need better milk
inspection to safeguard the .pub
lic health and the Journal sug
gests that these cities group
themselves together to form
"sanitary communities' with
one veterinarian doing the inspection-work
for all of them
including checking dairy herds,
inspecting dairy barns and
equipment and supervising san
itation in pasteurizing plants
and distribution systems.
- From Pear) Harbor to Jan. 1,
1944, industrial accidents killed
37,600, or 7,500 more than the
military dead, according to the
war production board. . .

Cpl. John W. Klrby, Jr.. has
arrived in Medford to spend a
15-day furlough with his parents,
Mr. and Mrs. John W. Kirby, 145
North Ivy street. He has just rer
turned from a tour of duty in the
Pacific fighting areas as a mem
ber of a bomber group, signal
section, 5th air force. He saw
active service in New Guinea,
Biak islands, Netherlands East
Indies, and climaxed his service
as a member of the Philippine
invasion forces under Gen. Doug
las MacArthur.
He participated In reconstruc
tion of the large air field at Ta
cloban most of the work being
done under frequent strafing and
bombing by Japanese flyers. He
later witnessed the abortive
landing of Japanese paratroop
ers on Leyte island, but states
that our forces made quick work
in wiping out those adventurers.
He says the Japs are tough fight
ers and should not be under
rated. Cpl. Kirby made the entire
trip back in an army transport
plane and enjoys the distinction
of eating two Christmas dinners
with all of the trimmings, on
two Christmas days in the same
year. His first dinner was at
Biak island and the second on
board the plane just east of the
international date line, which by
reason of the 24-hour time
change set him back to Christ
mas day again.
Prior to his enlistment In the
air corps signal section in Octo
ber, 1942, Cpl. Kirby was wire
chief at the Camp White tele
phone exchange of the Columbia
Utilities company. He wears the
Pacific East Asia service ribbbn
with three bronze stars.

The six and one-fourth pound

morning just as the reveille
cannon thundered and echoed
over the post.
