Lack of Funds Prevents Ef
fort Chamber of Com
merce Told By Ellsworth
Due to the lack of funds, It
will be impossible to keep
Crater Lake National park open
for winter sports enthusiasts and
other travelers this winter, a
letter from Newton B. Drury,
director of national parks, to
Congressman Harris Ellsworth,
states. Ellsworth and other con-
gressional representatives from
" Oregon have been aiding' the
Jackson county Chamber of
They rub elbows
with us!
Nearly 85,000 men and women
now share ownership in Stand
ard of California. Rich and
poor. Young and old. This one
drives a truck. That one runs a
store. Another's job is fighting.
Still another is a nurse.
In number, in spirit, in vari
ety, our stockholders constitute
an army. They are a segment of
America. A cross section of the
people. Your next door neighboi
may be perhaps is among
them. The voters of your home
town make up a no more dem
ocratic list.
Scattered all over the United
States you'll find them. But most
of them are Western people.
Some 31,500 of the 85,000 live
in California 10,000 in Los
Angeles County ... 7,700 in San
Francisco ... 47 in little Amadot
County (Pop. about 8,500).
All but one of California's
58 counties are represented. So
are 54 of Oregon's 36 counties
and the same number of
Washington's 39 counties . . .
That's Distribution with a capi
tal D. But it's just a starter.
Out In mid-Pacific you'll find
resident stockholders of ours
on small Hawaiian Islands. Up
among the totem poles of Alas
ka only a sleeper jump (by
plane) from the North Pole
you'll find them. Ketchikan has
eight Petersburg seven.
Alaska has long been our
"farthest North." In that out
post, we've done business for
decades. And it's simple com
pany history that wherever we
do business, over the years we
acquire stockholders.
Thus, a vast share of our
stockholders have close contact
with their company. They get
an intimate picture of its opera
rions because they rub elbows
with us.

Commerce In Its efforts to have
the park kept open and a report
on the letter was made at the
board of directors meeting Fri
day by Mark Goldy of the paik
committee.
Drury also wrote that finances
would probably not be a prob
lem after this winter, since 'the
federal-aid highway act of 1944
provides that appropriations
made to the service will be avail
able for maintenance as well as
for construction."
Housing Problem
J. E. Earley reported on hous
ing, stating that a saturation
point seemed to have bc-en
reached but that many naval of
ficers and newcomers were still
without housing. He urged the
board members to aid with solv
ing the problem in every possible
fashion.
Reporting on the progress of
the new city park along the
banks of Bear creek, Frank Rog
ers, city superintendent, stated
that plans and preliminary work
were going ahead rapidly and
that by next fall certain areas
would be laid out and planted
to shrubs and trees.
Film Finished
President Herb Grey stated
that Universal Studios had about
finished with the filming of
Canyon Passage" at Diamond
Lake and that the picture would
probably be released in the
spring. Company executives and
workers were highly pleased, he
said, with the results of the film
ing done here and it was gener
ally believed that other com
panies might use this section of
the country for future film work.
Larry Kelly, operator of the
new Evergreen bus service, was
introduced at the meeting.
Members were reminded that
Dr. Harry K. Newburn, president
of the University of Oregon, will
speak at a forum luncheon meet
ing of the chamber Thursday
noon at the Holland hotel, with
the public invited to attend.
Louisville Takes
Final Contest Of
Miniature Series
Louisville. Kv.. Oct IB 'IIP)
The 1945 "Little World Series"
crown was worn today by the
Louisville (Jolonels of the Amer
ican Association who romned in
with a 5 to 3 victory over the
Newark Bears of the Internation
al league behind the pitching of
Rex Cecil.
By yesterday's win, the Col
onels captured the title four
games to two, despite 56-degiee
weather which kept 7,882 fans
shivering.
It was the second triumph of
the series for Cecil, who struck
out seven and walked two 'vith
support of the strong "clutch"
hitting of his teammates. Bril
liance marked Cecil's pulling out
of trouble in the second, seventh
and eighth innings.
Washington, Oct. 15 U.R
Army wives whose husbands are
in occupation service overseas
apparently will have to wait at
least until next spring if they're
hoping to join them.
Latest word on the subject
came from Assistant Secretary of
War John J. McCloy. He said
in Vienna that as soon as the ap
proximate length of occupation
is determined, methods will be
worked out for army dependents
to go overseas. But he added it
wouldn't come this winter.
The decision as to when de
pendents may enter occupied
countries will be made by the
ater commanders. Gen. Dwight
D. Eisenhower said last summer
that he hoped to see the arrange
ments worked out, but reminded
that Germany was a hostile
country, with shortage of quar
ters, food, fuel and everything
else.
This position will not be essen
tially altered in Germany this
winter. It may even be worse
in Japan.
Dependents of army personnel
are now permitted to go to Latin
American points when suitable
housing, food, medical supplies
and transport is available.

Nw York, Oct. 15 (U.R) The
stock market rose fractions to
more than a point today to a new
high since March 10, 1937 but
reacted on last-minute profit-
taking to close slightly under the
final levels of last Thursday.
Selling was interpreted in Wall
Street as a wholly technical re
action to recent market strength.
There was nothing in the news
to account for the liquidating
movement, apart from a desire
to pocket profits.

For the first time in three years
air travellers today were secure

not be "bumped" by someone
with a government priority.
But they still faced the prob
lem of obtaining a reservation.
Although airline priorities
were discontinued at 12:01 a. m.
today ending three years of
wartime controls the major air
lines were requesting reserva
tions for most points a week or

TWA said It was accepting no
