Cars Must Carry Property
To Qualify for Certificate
Owners of passenger cars are
not eligible for certificates of
war necessity unless the ve
hide has Undergone a genuine
structural change, reasonably
permanent In nature, which
makes it likely .that property,
rather than passengers, will be
carried, . the office of defense
transportation said today.
Moreover, the owner must es
tablish the fact that his business
or occupation requires the use
of a property-carrying vehicle.
rather than a passenger carrying
one, in order to qualify fully for
a certificate.'
. "Merely painting the windows'
of a vehicle, or removing seat
cushions, or removing a door,
or attaching a towing device to
the axle of the vehicle, does not
make It a commercial vehicle,
John L. Rogers, director of the
division of motor transport, said.
Rogers made it clear that
the vehicle is merely converted
for the purpose of getting more
gasoline, or for the purpose of
avoiding turning in idle tires
under OPA regulations, and
there is no bona fide transpor
tation of property intended," the
application for a certificate will
be denied by the ODT.

A new rating, that of aviation
electrician's mate, has been an
nounced for recruits who, upon
completion of their training
periods, qualify for admission
to the navy's trade school. This
was announced Friday by C. J,
Speakman, CBM, officer In
charge of the local recruiting
station. This makes the 50th
rating which is available to en
listed men, Speakman said.
Aviation electrician's mate
will receive the same rate of
pay as other navy ratings. Get
ting in one of the navy's trade
schools ' is somewhat a matter
of competition, Speakman point
ed out. - After a recruit goes
through boot camp for six to
eight weeks he is given an apti
tude test to determine whether
he is qualified for one of the
many trade schools. Over SO
per cent of' the recruits are
sent to school and upon com
pletion of this training are qual
ified for the rating of third
class petty officers.
Two enlistments were an
nounced by Speakman Friday.
Lloyd Shelton Collins, city, and
Louis Vincent Schweiger, 526

with the navy.

PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 13
VP) Henry J. Kaiser's Portland-
Vancouver shipyards will ob
serve the "spirit and the letter"
of President Roosevelt's order
providing "full and equitable
participation of all workers in
defense industries without dis
crimination because of race,
creed, color, or national origin."
Such was an announcement
released late yesterday by the
Oregon office of war informa
tion after a conference of fed
era, labor and Kaiser shipyards
officials which considered
charges that the AFL Portland
Metal Trades council had dis
criminated against negroes.
There was no amplification
and OWI said there would be
no other statement to come out
of the conference.
National AFL and high-rank
ing federal labor officials were
here to ponder charges that the
local council opposed the em
ployment of negroes in skilled
classifications.

FULL CIVILIAN
DEFENSE-DRILL
SALEM, Nov. 13 (iP) Gov
ernor Charles A. Sprasue asked
all Oregon communities to hold
full-scale civilian defense drills
on December 7, anniversary of
America s entry into World War
II.
The governor asked each com
munity to arrange for complete
tests of all defense corps per
sonnel. Graduates of the war
department civilian protection
school in Seattle will be official
observers. .
The following day, December
8, was designated as mobiliza
tion day, when a statewide cam
paign will be held to enlist cit
izens in civilian defense activities.
Increas Expected
"The tests on December 7 will
not only recall the dastardly at
tack on Pearl Harbor by the
Japs, but will enable defense
councils to locate weaknesses in
the citizens defense corps which
develop only when all units of
the corps are called out simul
taneously," State Civilian De
fense Coordinator Jerrold Owen
said.
"Mobilization day on Decem
ber 8 should bring about a large
increase in registration of vol
unteers. Every individual can
play his part in civilian defense.
After a year of warfare every
person should be in war services
by enrollment in some division
of civilian defense." ,
It had been planned to have
a blackout December 7 through
out the entire northwest, but the
western defense command re
fused permission.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13 fJP)
Secretary Knox of the navy
told Sen. McNary (R-Ore.) to
day that the Battleship Oregon,
now a museum at Portland,
would be dismantled by a quali
fied commercial ship wrecker
under rigid supervision.
George F. Walker of Grants
Pass voiced fear that scrappers
of the historic battleship would
make a large profit.
Dismantling will b e under
joint supervision of the navy
and the war production board.
The secretary said the decis
ion to scrap the vessel was
founded upon "wise reasoning"
and asserted that "even the
president who particularly rev
erences this grand old ship,
felt obliged, although with the
greatest regret, to sanction the
scrapping of the Oregon."
Knox said the ship wrecker
who scrapped the old battleship
would be paid "standard compensation."
An assembly was held Thurs
day morning to practice fire
drills during a duo assembly,
that is, when two classes are In I
the auditorium and the others
are In class rooms.
The Kratcr was distributed to
lockers Thursday afternoon. The
papers are only given to those
who purchased a subscription,
but students affiliated with the
paper sold copies for a nickel
after school was dismissed and
then traveled down to the busl-
ness district.
