Earlier, ryo had advanced to new seasonal peaks on commis sion houso buying which touched off "stop-loss" orders on the up turn. Wheat was strong early on small mill buying, presum ably reflecting army flour pur chases, and reports of poor crop conditions In Canada. At the close, wheat was un changed to Ic lower, July $1,431 1, September $1.43 J, corn was unchanged, July $1.05, oats were unchanged to ic higher and rye was off i-l cents.

Produce wholesalers reported tho prevailing market price was 35 cents a box or three for $1, although a few merchants were selling down to 25 cents a box. Poe Valley POE VALLEY Word was received here from Web Van Meter, motor mechanic's mate second class, U. S. navy, that he took his first cruise which last ed nearly two months. He says he is still fat and keeping busy all the tlmo and did not even get sea sick. His address at present is San Francisco. Mrs. Bean Tucker and Jean are visiting with relatives for a few days. Mr. Benedict was a Klamath Falls siiopper from the valley over the weekend. He walked in. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Schaupp bought some setting hens and are raising young chickens on their ranch here. Arbce and Warren Roberts and John Nork went to Klam ath Falls over the weekend. Howie Roberts was a caller in the valley Sunday from Langcll valley. Louise Mobrc, who has been quite ill with tick fever, is somewhat better. Tho Charles Woldrip family had some of their cattle brand ed Sunday. The Irvin Ross family were callers at the L. Ross ranch Sunday. Word was received here from Louise Van Weber, Glendale, that. she is enjoying her visit, with fishing and swimming, taking care of her small neph ews, and helping her Aunt Lll with the housework. Mr. and Mrs. Billy Nichols and sons. Dean and Gordon, were visitors at the L. Ross ranch from Klamath Falls Sun day. The James family moved to Montana this week. James has been employed on the Chet Barton ranch for the last sev eral months'. Emil Wells was a caller at the Vic Brown ranch Sunday. Some of the Jehovah's Wit nesses were callers In the val ley Sunday. There are two things we look forward to. The first is to share with her (Russia) the field of battle. The second Is to live with her in friendship and under standing in a world where the phrase "peace in our time, Is something more than a hope. Maj.-Gen.

Heretofore, soldiers on leave have found the project very dull for lack of things to do. In most THE U.S. ARMY Ordnance Department, early ' In 1942, asked one of our executives if we bad a factory near a good supply of water, of sufficient sire to make small calibre ammuni tion at the rate of many millions every twenty four hours. We had such a factory on the Ohio River with enough feet of floor space. It was well placed Bear additional unused land and far enough from the dry to allow the storage of powder and the loading and testing of ammunition. The work of preparation was started imme diately. The automobile machinery in the plant, which could not be used, was dismantled and put elsewhere. It was replaced by new and different equipment. A specialized laboratory was installed and staffed with engineers, metal lurgists, and technician drawn 'from our widely diversified staff. Production executives and specialists were also selected from our own personnel. While the factory was being pre pared for production, the Frankford arsenal Swell Scrap Pile I I 4a Instances relatives and friends are employed on the project and time for visiting them is con fined to evening hours.

Power Production Breaks Records NEW YORK, June 16 (VP) Electric power production broke all records last week at 4,040,- 376,000 kilowatt hours, the Edi son Electric institute reported today. The total for the week ended June 12 was 2.8 per cent greater than the 3,823,893.000 kilowatt hours of the preceding week and compared with the previous rec ord of 3,892.250,000 in the week ended May 22. assisted the training of these production spe cialists who, in turn, were to train the workers and supervise the operation of the many de partments of the plant The first finished ammunition produced in this newly organized plant went oa test in May, 1942. The cartridge cases were then made of brass. Brass is an extremely vital war material. Could steel hm md imttad.' Could steel be worked over the machinery and tools 'that were provided for the use of brass? Could the steel be treated to withstand the corrosion -COUIO IT SB DON1 WITH STEElt" of long sea voyage and to resist successfully the humidity of the tropics and the sub-zero temperatures of the Arctic? The U. S. Army Ordnance Department and our own engi neers, metallurgists and technicians believed it could. More engineering talent this time chemists were added to the laboratory staff -and the larger and more complete Chrysler Corporation's laboratories, In Detroit, were also directed to the solution of this problem. The first of the new steel casings were made In the month of August, 1942. They were pretty good. Then began severe testing, spraying with wet salt air, burying in salty mud marshes washed by the tide, storing in hot damp rooms., and open exposure to the BUDGET, STIFF CUTS E PORTLAND, June 16 (IP) Annual budgets cutting the cur rent operating level of the state system of higher education by about $180,000 and reducing staff personnel by 104, were approved by the state board of higher education here today. Among the eliminations was that of Dr. A. S. Jensen, pro fessor of psychology at Oregon College of Education who Mon day appeared before a special meeting of the board to protest his removal on the grounds that it violated the tenure rights of the profession. William L. Marks, president of the board, announced today that the board had voted to sustain the recommendation of President C. A. Howard and Chancellor Frederick M. Hunter. "We regret that it is neces sary for Dr. Jensen and a num ber of others to be released be cause of the financial situation and the necessity of economiz ing in accordance with reduced enrollment," said Marks. "We want to commend Dr. Jensen, however, for his many years of service on the campus.

A vast cycle of experiments were tried and tested, and the results compared. From all this effort came a standardized product made of steel, and approved for use on all the battle fronts. The making of this ammunition is really the art of producing many pieces rapidly many thousands per minute, every day, 6 days week. Ninety-nine operations are performed to take each piece of ammunition from the lead, steel and powder stage to the formed, loaded, tested and packed, finished article ready to shoot, with every piece perfect in thape, finish, and firing efficiency. We have made our first billion of this steel ammunition. Not that this is a top record for ammunition making but, to us, it is a mile stone passed on the road to Victory. We will pass the second and third billion with much less emotion but we really got a thrill out of joining the ranks of the important producers of ammunition. With this change to steel we release, with every billion rounds, thousands of tons of brass. This brass can now be used in war pre duction where no other substitute is possible. A finished round of ammunition weighs only few ounces. lfffe things often da become raafry big and Important.
