CORVALLIS, March 27 ()
The fertilizer section of the food
production administration has al
located 1200 additional tons of
fertilizer to Oregon, 1000 tons
of it for the Klamath Falls po
tato area.
W. L. Price, assistant director
of the extension service at Ore
gon State college, was notified
by wire today that 200 tons
more of nitrogen for vegetable
production had been allocated
the state; 500 tons more of sod
ium phosphate and 500 tons
more of treble super phosphate,
the latter two allocations for the
Klamath region.
Price said the allocations were
f great importance.
"The question of whether the
Klamath region could increase
its potato acreage depended on
our obtaining more fertilizer,"
Price said.
County Agent C. A. Hender
son said Friday the figures
quoted in the above dispatch are
somewhat at variance with
pledges of fertilizer given grow
ers here last week. He also said
he is sure it is ammonium phos
phate rather than sodium phos
phate which is to be provided
growers here.
Henderson said he would seek
further clarification.

Terming the Austin-Wadsworth

rather than a manpower short

war production problems. '

At least 111 rltlffc. Inoltlrllnff
large naval stations like Ftiilu-

and other cities are considering
similar measures.
In aoinft cities, a In Pai-IK
Ambov. N. J., and Ldhnnnn.
Ore., curfew nrcUnnnroa hnv
been enacted recently. In other
cities, as in Indianapolis, old
curfew laws, long ignored, have
been revived and enforced
anew.
Curfew Applications
In Hastines. Nebraska t h
curfew applies to children un-
aer ie, without adult escorts.
In PhiladelDhia it annllcs n
girls only, under 16. Mwl f
the curfews are effective at 10
p. m., some at 10:30 p. m.
NPA files show that nthnr
having curfews include: Atlan
tic City, N. J.; Richmond, Cnllf.;
Fort Lauderdale mid Knv Wncf
Fla.; Rlverhead, Long Island,
N. Y.; Klamath Falls, Salem
and Eugene,' Ore.
The National Probation asso
ciation, an organization of pro
bation officials and social work
ers concerned with developing
scientific, modern methods for
the prevention and cure nf .
venile delinquency, does not ap
prove or curlews.
"Curfaws were tried during
the first World war, and they
did not work," says Charles L.
Chute, executve director of the
NPA.
Police everywhere already
have the power to send horn
any children running around the
streets in danger of getting In
to trouble of any sort day or
nigiu.
' "It Is also possible anywhere,
under existing laws, to bring
parents into court for neglect
of their children elthor on the
complaint of a citizen of a po
nce omcer.
Unfair Argument
Chut argues it is unfair to
penalize all children for the
few, or to shift to police the
responsibility for seeing that
children do not wander the
streets at night.
"If you have an ordinance."
he points out, "you must have
a penalty. What are you going
to do with these children send
them to jail?
"How many policemen are
going to be able to judge
whether a girl is one day under
16 years old, and subject to the
curfew, or one day over 16 and
not governed by the curfewT"
Recommends Activity
Instead of a curfew, Chute ad
vocates increased activity of ju
venile protective and recrea
tional agencies, plus intelligent
and sympathetic enforcement of
existing laws, and appointment
of additional policewomen.
Some cities have supplement
ed their curfews with an active
recreational program for teen
age boys and girls.
The juvenile aid division of
the polleo department of Indian
apolis, Ind., for Instance Is In
augurating a series of youth
clubs designed, says Lt. William
F. Kurrasch, head of the de
partment, to "keep the boys and
girls so busy during the day
time they will be too tired to
roam around at night."

wholcsomo recreation for young
