Klamath county's scrap rub
' ' ber pile stood at Its final weight
of 849,147 pounds a shade over
' 424 tons today following com
pilation of total figure from out
lying communities, Klamath
Tails, and Isolated Junk dealers.
The final figure represented
' an average of 21.23 pounds for
very man, woman and child in
the county.
Snodgrass said the city's com
plete total was 814,127 pounds;
' the county's (Outside Klamath
rails), 253,220, and that 82,000
additional pounds were In the
hands of junk dealers ready for
' shipment to government reclam
ation plants.
The Klamath scrap rubber
campaign, along with that of the
nation, ended last Friday at mid'
- nlaht after a 24-dy push con-
' ducted by oil dealers and service
stations throughout the county.
The drive, originally scheduled
to end on June 30, was extended
10 days by presidential procla
nation. .-
It was pointed out that if the
. . balance of the nation main.
tained the 21 pound per person
average, the country's scrap rub'
bar pile would be swelled by ap
proximately 1,869,000 tons. Ore
gon, however, and presumably
Klamath county, ranks near the
top in scrap collections and the
national average was expected
to be considerably lower than 21
. Bounds oer person.
Snodgrass said no order had
' been received yet relative to
shipment of Klamath's rubber
t le.

"In the northern sector yes

attack by - the enemy on the
northwestern area of positions

STATE BOP'S Til
001 ISOLATION
PORTLAND, July 13 (P
Isolationism was a thing of the
past today so far as Oregon's re
publican party was concerned.
Following the lead of the na
tional GOP, the state central
committee adopted a resolution
Saturday urging the United
States to "take such positive po
sition in world affairs upon the
inauguration of peace that there
may be no repetition of the
world chaos now in existence."
Warning the party that na
tional welfare comes ahead of
politics. Palmer Hoyt, Portland
publisher, said in a keynote
speech that there should be no
criticism that would deter the
war effort He said, however,
that it was proper to criticize
improper . spending, , boondog
gling and useless expenditure of
lives.
Governor Sprague told the ses
sion he was returning to the
ranks of party workers when
his gubernatorial term expired.
In the only contested election,
Mrs. John Richardson, Portland,
defeated Mrs. Grace M. Wells,

London says: "For hours these
TOUGH planes (Indicating some
thing new, probably heavily
armored and gunned) flew over
Germany's heavily guarded Bal
tic coast before slicing down to
lay their bombs on Danzig's sub
marine yards in the BRIGHT
LIGHT of tho northern evening."
It was a 1750-mile round trlji,
show'lng the growing range of
modern alrcrnft.
rY comparison, 12 British
planes made a dnyllght raid
on Augsburg, about half as far
away from Britain as Danzig, In
April, and ONLY FIVE returned,
a loss of around 00 per cent.
The implication is that they
now have improved planes.
