Barring unforeseen military de
mands, civilians can expect in
creased quantities of wool fab
rics, but with some of the pre
war variety missing.
Wool manufacturers, the war
production board (WPB) report
ed today, are sacrificing novelty
to step up production of staple
items. It's part of the WPB aim
to make clothes rationing un
necessary. Apparel wool output for ci
vilians now is running at an an
nual rate of 240,000,000 yards,
about the same as last year. To
increase this, manufacturers are
reducing the variety of colors
and counts of their yarns. This
results in larger lots of one ma

Indicate that some 800 acres,
rather than 1,100 acres, were ac
tually covered by wauar after the
lessees' dike broke south of Tule

ported Tuesday.
Worst hit was the leased land
of John and Lewis Kandra. A
few others suffered, but none so
seriously as the Kandras.
Bulldozers were being used
Monday In finishing up work on
the dikes. The secondary dike
appeared to be holding the water
from spreading further, and the
break in tho main dike was also
holding satisfactorily, according
to word received here.
Lessees hope to recover some
feed from the land inundated,
which had been planted to grain,
chiefly barley.
A business meeting of the
lessees on the 6,500-acre tract,
which was threatened, will be
held at Tulelake Tuesday night.
B. E. Haydcn, reclamation super
intendent, will attend from Kla
