raised to 95 cents and that

Foster W. Harper, deputy
chairman of the war manpower
commission, told the conference
there is a vast turnover of labor
in war industries and that it
must be stopped.
Harper said war Industries

Snodgrass said that rubber
may still be donated to service
stations and oil distributors at
any time but buying stopped
last night. Ho expected to have
a Klamath county total ready for
release early next week.
PORTLAND, July 11 (Re
sults of Oregon's scrap rubber
salvage drive will be withheld
until a national announcement
is made by President Roosevelt,
State Drive Chairman H. 11.
Ramsey said today.
Ho did estimate, however, that
18,000 freight cars would be
needed to move Oregon scrap to
reclaiming plants. So much
rubber has been collected, Ram
sey said, that driveways and
storage space of many oil com
pany bulk plants were congested.
WASHINGTON, July U (fT
The scrap rubber drive launched
by President Roosevelt ended
last midnight and Interior Sec
retary Iekes said "a very good
showing" was made.
But whether the collections
were sufficient to avoid nation
wide gasoline rationing as a rub
ber conservation measure was
yet to be decided by the war
production board.
The petroleum Industry war
council, which spearheaded the
drive, said an inventory was be
ing made of the total collections,
and the president is expected to
announce the. results within a
few days. The collections on
July 3 had reached 334,203 tons.
Ickes noted that some experts
had estimated that only about
100,000 tons could be found.

The outstanding work of boys

The arrangement of articles

Don't Forget to
Close Windows
When You Go Home
Windows left open at night in
business establishments over the
city are the bane of the police
department and the delight of
prowlers, according to Police
Chief Frank Hamm.
The prowl car has been clo
ing a half dozen or so windows
every night during the recent
warm spell when business peo
ple have forgotten to close them
before locking up at the and of
the day. This carelessness is a
gilt-edged invitation to anyone

hit Rommel along the Mediter
ranean coast and Rommel hit

Quattara salt link.
That is all that has developed
as this is written.
"THIS Cairo dispatch appears
x significant:
"The axis seemed to be
DRAWING MAINLY ON THE
ITALIANS for air reinforce

THEM." (The Italian air force
hasn't been so hot.)
It is significant because it in
dicates that Hitler is still leav

the Italians. The British have so
far been able to handle the
Italians.
TTHE Japs claim today to have
landed a troop convoy safely
in the western Aleutians, but
otherwise no Jap activity is re
ported. One wonders naturally what
the Japs are up to and suspects
they are watching the battle in
Russia and trying to decide
whether or not to jump onto
Siberia.
QN the home front, there are
signs that the price ceiling
is beginning to crack.
Nothing else can be expected,
It Is a makeshift affair, cobbled
together as a compromise to sat

improving their position at the
expense of the general consum

We are constantly told from
Washington that the public
