Production progress has been uneven, Nelson said in his second war production report, and "the big job ahead of us right now is to bring, our program into bal ance and make sure that we use our materials and facilities as wisely as possible." For example, Nelson said, air craft production in July showed an 11 per cent jump compared with. June, but combat plane output fell short of expectations and, for the next few months, is not expected to reach the pro duction planned earlier In the . yer. ... No Veto Power . Emphasizing that the army navy munitions board absolute- !ly," positively" had no veto pow er-. . over the war production board, Nelson told a press con ference that the present lack of balance in the production pro gram was a result of "my delib erate intention to get-production started as fast as possible- in tvery' direction."

County defense councils were warned today by State Civilian Defense Coordinator Jerrold Owen that they must not give out any; in forriiation on damage caused by air' raids,' effect of air. raids -on morale,' deployment of forces used to combat air raids, or ac tion taken by civilian and' mili tary authorities. Such' information would aid the enemy, Oweri said, pointing out. that the U. S. army received valuable information, as to the effect of the bombing of Tokyo because the information was broadcast by the Japanese radio.

C) . thumbed the pages of history today to support his con tention that what he termed the second-front "pressure boys" of today are following a line as old as the nation itself. Aroused by receipt of a plea that every member of congress get behind the movement to open a second front In Europe, Bulwinkle said he believed it was about time everyone realized T1RESH0P BLAZE EI REDMOND,-Aug. 24 (P) Of ficials investigated today an ex plosion and fire Which damaged a tire shop and destroyed a quantity of new and used tires early yesterday. Mayor W. R. Hardison, Police Chief Athel Dudley and Night Officer Robert Gillispie heard a blast shortly after midnight, only a minute or two after they had driven past the shop, ;.--- Glass from the windows and boards of. the building . were blown across the street. The structure was shaken eight inches out of line. Fire broke out immediately and later came a second explosion as the flames reached an air compressor. - The shop, owned by Gordon Smith, had been closed since he left on a trip to Missouri three weeks ago. The loss has not-been determined. Norma Shearer Married at Quiet Church Ceremony SANTA MONICA, Calif., Aug. 24 Nnrina Khpawr ,mun actress widow of Producer Irv ing Thalberg, was 15. minutes late for her second marriage but uled and she was honeymooning in her beach home here today with Martln Arrouge, 28, person able, athletic and eieht vpnr hpr junior. , Miss Shearer and Arrouge, who' was her "ski instructor at Sun Valley, Ida., were married in a. quiet, church. ceremony in Beverly Hills yesterday by Fath er John J. O'Donnell. Arrouge is a member of the'Roman Cath olic church. Flushed and vislhlv cvrllM Miss Shearer armparpri fnr the ceremony in the afternoon print irocK sne -wore last week when she applied for the marriage li cense. She WPUrt if fror,Mor,H says she considers it lucky. that military matters "are solely for the supreme military com mand to decide." The -Carolinian, whose active service in the last World war earned him a major's commis sion, said he was "disgusted" by a resolution from the National Maritime union of America, which he quoted as asserting fthat any public official "who does not speak out now for a second front is completely un worthy of labor's support in the coming elections." . An avid reader of military his tory, Bulwinkle recalled that Washington, Lee, Lincoln and virtually - every other wartime leader had been plagued by pressure groups made up largely as he described them, of "drug store generals." Certain groups, he said, were dissatisfied during the Revolu tionary war because General Washington did not act swiftly enough to suit them or failed to conform to their conception of military strategy. . . History, he continued, shows that the first battle of Bull Run in.the'Civil war was fought be fore the northern forces were ready for it simply because un ion leaders yielded to pressure to ."crush the Rebels right now." The Union army came out a poor second in that row, Bulwinkle recalled,' and among those cap tured by the victorious Confed erates was a member of congress who, with hundreds of others, had driven from Washington in to Virginia to witness what they had thought would be a picnic for the northern forces. CLUB WOMEN HARVEST PORTLAND, Aug. 24 (?) Portland's 10,000 club women were urged today to follow the lead of the Portland League of Women Voters, working the bean harvest, and devote their spare time to aiding' farmers. TO CLOSE SEPT. 1 The Diamond Lake resort at Diamond lake, in eastern Doug las county, Umpqua National forest, will close business for the season September 1. Never be fore, so far as forest service rec ords show, has this resort closed until after Labor day, and it has been operated by the same com pany and by George L. Howard of Medford as manager during the entire period. This year, however, because most of the help is mado up of school teachers, students, etc., who must get back to their work soon after Sept. 1, and tha abso lute inability of the management to get replacements for the lost of such help, it becomes Impera tive to close on Sept. 1 Instead of after Labor day, as is the usual custom. Anyone who desires to visit Diamond lake for this season should therefore make plans to go by or before the end of Au gust, since after that date there will be no facilities whatsoever available. The forest service campgrounds along the 1 a k e shore will, however, remain available for campers, and rep resentatives of the forest ser vice will likewise be available to give information and take care of garbage disposal and the facil ities in general until camping season is definitely ever.

FALL IRK E SHOULD RELIEVE MEAT 0 E By FRANKLIN MULLIN CHICAGO, Aug. 24 (T) With in a few Weeks the grcalo.it flood of meat animals in history will begirt t i"Mil Into Ilia iiiiiiuns livestock markets. This will be the marketing of the record spring crop of pigs, which producers have been fat tening for months. Livestock men said today they hoped this would bring relief from ths nation's incut head ache a combination of local shortages at many points, parti cularly In the east, and of threats of meat allocation, rationing or livestock price ceilings. Demand, Eased While tlio big increase In mar ketings will bo hogs, livestock men said any expansion in the supply of one typo of meat auto matically cases the demand for other types. The September run of hogs at slaughtering centers usually is larger than in August Bnd the big supplies begin to pour in by October. Heavy mar ketings last through most of the winter. Normally, hog prices decline as supplies increase, Last year, despite Increasing domnnd, there was only a drop of about t cent a pound from the average prion In September to that In December. Whether there will be any reac tion at all this yenr remains to be seen. Ceiling Undtrmln.d Tho recent steady rlso of live stock prices has undermined the colling structure holding con sumers' meat costs down to Mareh levels. When ceilings on dressed ments wont Into vffect last spring, mrnt Inula experts thought this would tend to Eta blllio livestock values. But com petition for meat from civilian consumers, military buyers nnci lond-lnnsn exporters so whetted demand that cattlo rose about 10 per cent and hogs 0 pur cent since then. Even lambs have moved upward from levels Ihnt prevailed when ceilinRs on dressed lamb went Into effect only about three weeks ago. Jefferson Goes Over Bond Quota PORTLAND, Aug. 24 (VP) Jefferson county Saturday had the honor of being tho first Ore gon county to surpass Its August quota for war bonds.

Nowhere have these changes been more accurately mirrored. than in the advertise ments that have appeared in our daily pa pers since Pearl Harbor. We all havo known that advertising is a force that sells products, and we have thought of advertising in this light. Now, with sales of products secondary to what we're all doing to win the war, adver tising emerges in the forceful new role of turning the wheels of the country in new channels of endeavor. More powerful than arguments for con tinued advertising in these critical times are the wartime advertisements themselves. Newspaper ads efficiently; have sold war bonds . . ..collected scrap rubber and met als . . . advised consumers on the use of re stricted goods . . . maintained sales of available merchandise . . . produced the contributions for Red Cross campaigns ... encouraged foresight in buying and dis couraged hoarding . . . told how to use your telephone in wartime.. . . introduced new products to meet new needs ... . . . and so day after day ads are telling us how to do things differently, how to keep ahead of the game, the American way. READ advertisements to keep ahead of the world! USE advertisements to do a job efficiently!
