DURING 1S42 PORTLAND, Dec. 28 (IP) The war boom In Oregon lifted the stale's income to a new high this year. A yenr-end survey showed pay rolls nearly doubled, farm pro ducts increased 30 per cent in value and private businesses gained from 25 to 500 per cent In trade. The state Industrial accident commission said November was typical, the payroll being $40, 122,851 compared to $21,234,786 in the same month in 1941. Port land payrolls accounted for most of this gain, increasing from, S9.741.488 tp $27,006,545. N. I. Nielsen, federal agricul ture statistician, said field, truck and fruit crops increased 20 per cent in quantity and higher prices lifted the total value to a 30 per cent increase over last year. Freight Increases The merchants' exchange said Oregon exports were up 500 per cent from recent years. Railroad lines reported more than 100 per cent increase in passenger traffic and from 40 to 50 per cent increase in freight. A Dun and Bradstrect survey placed the increase for major de partment stores at 50 per cent. Some specialty stores did better. Retail business as a whole, despite declines in autmobile, refrigerator and other lines, was 25 to 50 per cent greater. With a few days to go, Port land bank clearings reached an all-time high of $3,248,513,562 (B) compared to $2,508,723,490 (B) last year. Red Cross .

He says, "AH of us received a present from the American Red Cross which was meant for an early Christmas gift, I believe. It was a bag that had in it a soap box, soap, paper and envelopes, deck of cards, sewing kit, shoe laces, book, etc. It was sure nice and they were all things that we could use." This was one of our comfort kits which we have been telling you about, and each man going overseas receives one of these. By the way, Sgt. Carlson was serving with a tank battalion when the letter was written and is probably now on one of our battle fronts. When next you are down town, please see our Red Cross window at the headquarters, 418 Main street. It was Installed and decorated by Mrs. A. L. Barker and embodies the true spirit of the Red Cross and its work. Those who persist in holding to such old shibboleths as "the white man's burden" and 'talk blithely of reverting after the war to the obsolete levels of an" imperialistic status quo either do not know the score or stub bornly ignore it. Wendell Willkie. In some cases the old villager who speaks of the younger gen eration is right.

Belated tax offerings, particu larly in low-quoted Issues, came out in sizable blocks and helped lift volume to around 1,200,000 shares, one of the largest of the year to date. Peace-rated stocks, apparently buoyed by the continuance of good war news, again were among the early risers although some of these faded after mid day. Stocks touching best marks for 1942 before meeting opposi tion included General Motors, Chrysler, U. S. Rubber, Fire stone Tire, Deere, Oliver Farm, Dome Mines and Texas Co.
