VOTERS URGED TO CHECK ELIGIBILITY rags were needed as raw mate rial to make equipment for the armed forces. All regs, rope end string muet ba kept separately and not only must not be destroyed but must not be thrown Into garbage cans or refuse bins. County Clerk Mae K. Short urged Thursday that Klamath people make certain now that their registration Is in order the fall election, Mrs. Short pointed out that hundreds of copies of the vot ers pamphlets, mailed to Klam ath addresses of registered vot ters, had been returned through the mall to the secretary of state's office. This showed, she said, that these registrants had changed addresses or had left the county. She also said that large num bers of people found, at the pri mary election, that they were not properly registered. Under the law, she added, persons who do not vote at one general and one primary elec tion arc automatically dropped from the registration books. New Rubber Methods May Produce 34,000,000 Tires WASHINGTON. July IT m W. S. Farlsh, president of Stand ard Oil company (New Jersey), said Wednesday the petroleum Industry had developed two new methods of producing synthetic rubber which may provide by the and of next year 34,000,000 mora automobile tires than had been expected. In another congressional quar ter, Senator Thomas (D-Okla.) said ha would press legislation to create an Independent gov ernment rubber agency despite opposition from War Production Chairman Donald M. Nelson. Farlsh told a house mines subcommittee that tha new rub ber methods may provide 200, 000 tons of synthetic rubber In addition to the 800,000 tons al ready planned under tha govern ment s rubber program. Tires from this additional rub ber, Farlsh said, would go to ward meeting essential civilian transportation needs. Qood News "This Is good news," Farlsh said, "but It does not warrant undue optimism on the part of American motorists. There should be conservation of rub ber. Driving speeds should be reduced to save wear on tires. Unnecessary driving should be eliminated. We are not yet out 7 of the woods In this business of synthetic rubber, and noth ing should be dona to waste sup-' plies that may turn out to be critical." The new methods, Farlsh said, were known as the "flcxon" and 'quick butadiene" processes. Flexon, he explained, Is a rub ber substitute on the butyl type, already being made In experi mental quantities from Isobuty- lene by makeshift methods in volving dry Ice. The quick butadiene method, Farlsh said, Involves production of buna rubber by using spare equipment and odds and ends of Junk to patch temporary fa cilities which could turn out rubber raw materials. No Substitute Farlsh said that after much experimentation with wooden tires, spring wheels and other tlra substitutes, tha automobile Industry had reached the con clusion that for the present time there Is no substitute for the rubber tire. He said the government'a 800,-000-ton synthetic rubber pro gram was sufficient for the mili tary needs of the United Na tions, it would be neither large enough or soon enough for' or dinary non-essential civilian motoring. T OREGON STATE COLLEGE, Corvallif, July IT Already ac cepted here as freshmen for the class starting September 21 are seven high school graduates from Klamath county, ' all of whom are from Klamath Fall. These figures are as of July 8, E. B. Lemon, registrar, an nounced. Indications are that the fresh man class will be large, as many boys are planning to combine college work with one of the various military enlistment op portunities offered, while bet ter employment conditions favor the attendance of girls, who are less self-supporting than men. Early filing of applications and early reservation of living quarters, In the case of dormi tories and cooperative houses especially, Is recommended by Mr. Lemon. Those accepted Include the following: Fred Hennen Bey mer, Mary Frances Landram, L The Klamath Basin District council of the CIO International Woodworkers of America today announced they had protested a seasonality decision of the state unemployment compensa tion commission and have re quested a hearing on the com mission's decision covering ap proximately 20 lumber opera tion In this area. Tim Sullivan, president of tha council, said the protest is based on the fact that the deci sions, governing the 20 opera tions through 1938, 1939, 1940 and 1941, were not In accord with tha law at that time. Tha rulings declared the 20 firms were engaged In seasonal work which prevents employes from receiving unemployment com pensation during certain periods of the year. The CIO council is seeking to have the operations declared non-seasonal. Visitors are forbidden to bring cameras to Fort Disc. Doing as you please around army camps is no snap.

"You're Just a Lightweight" Can Apply to Potatoes CORVALL1S. July IT () You're Just a lightweight," is as disparaging a term to potatoes now as to humans. Scientists of the Oregon State college experiment station are applying a discovery made in Canada which permits elimina tion of most diseased potatoes from seed stock becausa the dis eased spuds are a trifle lighter. Potatoes grown on a vlna somewhat infected with certain virus diseases often look Ilka healthy potatoes, but produce diseased stocks. They are enough lighter, however, that If dumped Into a salt solution they will float while healthy tubers will sink. Gasoline means Ufa to our transportation In the east and death to many American seamen in our tanker fleets.
