The work of preparation was started imme

different equipment. A specialized laboratory

Electric power production broke

The total for the week ended

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.

ping in dichromate, sealing with plastics. 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.
