tricti In the region but one has
population of more than half
million. Reno is the only other
office without that many peo
ple, and it is the only office in
Nevada.
The war price and ration
board change will be made in
a few days, and the board will
occupy the front space In the
Balsiger building quarters.
Meeting Wednesday, the board
decided to make the change in
connection with an over-all con
solidation of OPA activities
here as decided upon at the
time of Gentner's visit.
"No Neglect." Says Chief
Gentner said that it is not
OPA's intention to neglect price
control or rationing in this dis
trict. Field men from here will
service approximately the same
area covered previously by the
district.
When the OPA first set up
the district here, the district
included the southern tier of
Oregon counties and two Cali
fornia counties. Harney and
Malheur were first cut off and
added to the Boise district, and
later Siskiyou and Modoc in
California were added to the
Sacramento district.
No announcement was made
as to the personnel changes to
be affected at the time of the
change. Ed Ostendorf, district
director for the office here, is
expected to sever his connec
tions with OPA at that time.

Angus Roundtree Walsh, for
the last 23 years a resident of
Klamath Falls, Ore., passed
away in this city on Tuesdav.

following an illness of 10 days.
He was a native of Jacksonville,
Ore., and at the time of his
death was aged 37 years 4
months and II days. Surviving
are his wife, Mrs. Mary Walsh,
of this city; two brothers, Clyde
L. Walsh of this city, and Dr.
Harry D. Walsh of Plainvlew,
Tex.; one aunt, Mrs. Effie Cole
of Seattle, Wash., and one
nephew, Allen Cline of this

directed that all negotiations be

referred to them by the directive
order of May 25. 1943, in this
case shall cease immediately un
til the mine workers return to
work in compliance with the
board's directive order of May
25, 1943. The board further noti
fies the parties that any agree

the parties while the workers are

The board is referring this
case to the president for such
action as he deems appropriate."
Coal Diggers Quit
Earlier, producers and Lewi
started another conference with
the expressed intention of going
at the problem from the begin
ning. This was decided on after
each side rejected the other's
compromise offers yesterday
when the second 15-day truce ex
pired and 500,000 coal diggers
quit work.
Interior Secretary Ickes
termed their action a strike
against the government As
fuels administrator, he has been
operating the mines by president
ial direction since the wake argu
ment came to a stalemate May 1.
icKes, urging resumption of
work, declared Lewis could not
escape responsibility for the
stoppage, and at the same Umo
criticized "a few powerful oper
ators" for what he called their
uncompromising attitudes.
bteel Problem Rises
Lewis said the government ap
peal to get the mines going again
was a matter "to be given consideration."
Ickes estimated that only 49
days supply of coal lies above
ground, and steel centers indi
cated their output would be af
fected seriously in a matter of
days. .A spokesman for U. S.
Steel at Pittsburgh said produc
tion would be "very much cur
tailed in three or four days."
The futile negotiations yester
day resembled a duelling match
with first one side and then the
other thrusting forward, then re
tiring to a previous stand.
the war production board said
today that "United States steel
production will drop sharply late
this week unless a flow of coal
to steel plants is maintained, and
practical paralysis of the war
production program will follow
any serious curtailment of coal
supplies."
In a special statement to the
press on the strike in the coal
Industry, Nelson said, "I am not
involved in the coal dispute, as
such, but I am seriously con
cerned about the devastating and
inevitable effect of any curtail'
ment of the flow of coal to iiv
dustry upon our output of the
weapons of war."

He added that the state felt that
it had a good case to present and

few years of Titus' life, telling
how the defendant became ao
