Germany could not earn the dollars needed to pay rep arations, let alone the dollars needed to pay for Oregon prunes. Now we have a good market in Germany and western Europe for mint oil. What would happen if Russia took over? Would Northwest growers be crowded out of mint as they were crowd ed out of prunes? Western Europe We look to western Europe as a market for some of our pro cessed fruits and vegetables. Fre quently we send Oregon seeds to these countries. Last winter much of our barley was shipped there to relieve shortages: this winter Europe is taking wheat because last summer's crops were short. In return, we in the Northwest frequently ship in seed, plants and animals from western Eu ropean countries to help meet our needs. Many of us wear watches and use cameras made in Europe. Now we notice more and more European cars on our roads. Affects Northwest Indirectly, the health of Eu rope's economy affects Europe's ability to buy goods manufac tured in the United States. This, in turn, affects jobs and job op portunities in this country and the domestic market for farm and forest products produced in the Northwest. Europe's wars have cost the American taxpayer money, too. They brought price inflation and cut the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar by half. Past and po tential wars are the big reason for today's high federal taxes. Twice in the last 50 years peace in the United States has been interrupted by troubles in Europe. Each time many North west men and women went to wars that started over political, economic and social difficulties there. Some of them did not re turn; others are disabled for life. i in : HIT-RUN HORSE AND WAGON Newark. N. J. (U.R) Police decided Monday a hit-and-run driver without license plates did not have to have them and might not have been able to stop. A man complained the driver made off after running into his parked car but said he was unable to get his license number because he was driving horse and wagon.

'Ghost' Cat Silent In Walls of Home Glendora, Calif. (U.F) A cat believed trapped in the Vincent Carta home for more tiian three weeks gave no further cries to day and authorities speculated that it may either have died or escaped. The cat cries had been going on ever since Carta, his wife and their two young children moved into their new S20.000 home. But Monday, for the first time, there was no sound from the "ghost" feline. , Plumbers, carpenters, police, firemen, technicians, veterinar ians and humane society work ers conducted futile searches to locate the cat, believed trapped in the walls of the house. The Carta family was be sieged by phone, mail and wire from persons all over the na tion who had offered suggestions as to how to rescue the cat. Holmes Notifies Ragnor Johnson Of Replacement Salem (U.R) Gov. Robert D. Holmes yesterday notified Real Estate Commissioner Ragnor Johnson that he was being re placed after Johnson rejected a request that he resign. The governor said he was sorry that Johnson, a Republi can appointee of the late Paul L. Patterson, had decided to take this course. Gov. Holmes said he was re placing Johnson because he wanted to make his own com mission appointment and "be cause the office is apparently more interested in serving the real estate profession than ,the public." Johnson Replies The action followed an an nouncement by Johnson that he was refusing to resign and indi cating that he would contest any effort to remove him. His resignation had been requested by Gov. Holmes last week. "It has troubled me as. well, in the case of Mr. Johnson," the governor said, "that since I ask ed for his resignation this office has been besieged by telegrams, obviously prompted, in his be half. Without exception this 'spontaneous' appeal has come from the real estate profession." Johnson countered by saying '1 think the governor is more interested in the power of poli tics than he is in good govern ment. The statement that he makes that the real estate com missioner is more interested in the real estate people than the public I wonder who he thinks the real estate people are if they are not the public?" Governor Cites Law Gov. Holmes said he was sure he was right in his opinion to remove Johnson even though he was appointed for a four- . year term which expires March I 31. 1958. ne saia uregon law pruviutra. "Any person holding an ap pointive office in any of the offices, department or institu tions of this state, shall hold the same for an indefinite term, not exceeding four years, and shall at all times be subject to removal by the appointive power which made the appoint ment. The appointive power may in all cases appoint a successor." The real estate commissioner is appointed by the governor.
