Mounting Losses Sign of Increased Allied Air Might WASHINGTON, Aug, 20 (P) The mounting losses bf allied heavy bombers over Europe, the army air forces said today, arc paradoxically a sign of increasing allied air might. They mean, said officers, that Britain and America arc spend ing ever greater aerial armadas to bluxt Germany and German occupied Europe. Numerical losses are higher, but the rate of losses is not. We have mechanized our armies, but our diplomatic ap paratus still Is of the horse and buggy era. London Dally Her ald. The harmonica was Invented by Benjamin Franklin. GOOD WEATHER AIDS GROWING OREGON CROPS By Th Associated Press Favorable weather aided the progress of Oregon crops for the week ending yesterday, the de partment of commerce-weather bureau summary showed today (Thursday) and good yields were forecast generally. The week had several moder ately warm days with temper atures in tho 80s at many points but the nights were mostly cool. There was little rain. Winter and spring grain har vests made good progress except in the higher sections where crops were reaching maturity. Ruin would have aided late spring grain but fairly good de velopment was noted neverthe less. Corn made good growth, particularly in Irrigated areas. Unirrlgutcd pastures were dry ing but except in tho extreme eastern area of the state were as good or better than usual at this time of year. Poor range feeding caused considerable movement of livestock to irri gated pastures and meadows in the eastern section. The Bartlctt. pear harvest showed uneven yields. Peaches and eurly apples were marketed In limited quantities and early prunes were picked for fresh shipment. Some early hops were picked. Potatoes appeared plentiful, sugar beets were doing well and tomatoes were being harvested in larger quantities. Harvests of green beans and dry peas prog ressed satisfactorily. The filbert crop seemed prom ising but blight was reducing the prospects of a good walnut yield. Mcdford and Maupln had the highest temperatures of the week 99 degrees while the minimum was 34 at Baker.
