ARROWSMITH WASHINGTON, May 24 (VP) New tires may start rolling this fall to "A" card automobile drivers whose hopes and treads have been wearing thin together. First, Charles F. Phillips, the OPA's new chief of rationing, said in an interview today 'that "A" card drivers can expect their first new tires since the start of the war when monthly allocations of synthetics climb to 2,000,000 from the May quota of 1,400,000. 2,000,000 Mark And. from the office of the rubber director, where the al locations are set, it was learned that production of passenger car tires probaoly will reacn mo 2.000.000 mark sometime in Oc tober, November or December. As for gasoline. Phillips sal a there was "nothing to indicate" -that the "A" ration can be in creased during the present quar ter, ending July 1, and that any boost in the third quarter will be dependent oh allocations from the petroleum administration tor war. He said a study of whether it will be possible to increase the B ration this quarter nas not been completed.

Jap Killer WASHINGTON, May 24 (if) Nineteen-year-old Marine Pri vate First Class James M. Thomas, five foot, seven 150 pounder from Biltmore, N. C, killed 60 Japanese troops in the struggle for Namur island, Kwajalein atoll, according to a dispatch from Marine Sgt. Edward F. Ruder, a combat correspondent. Thomas, the dispatch add ed, has received the Bronze Star medal from Admiral Chester W. Nimitz. No de tails were given. 'A" card motorists will be able to obtain new tires this year. Applications will be screened by local rationing boards and certificates will go first to those whose driving is considered most essential. He said it probably would take three or four months to meet the demand of all "A" motorists. All "B" and "C" card drivers. Phillips pointed out, have been engiDie for new tires since May 1, but it is expected there will be a backlog or applications un til at least August. Phillips said his first aim with regard to gasoline is to increase the "B" ration in the east from the present maximum of 325 miles of driving a month to 475 miles. Clerk Thanks Election Workers County Clerk Mae K. Short today issued a statement thank ing election workers. The Her ald and News, radio KFJI, and others Mlho assisted in the con duct of last Friday's election. Mrs. Short especially thank ed the Klamath county chamber of commerce for its efforts to recruit election workers.- Official canvass of the vote is now. underway. Members of the canvassing board are Al Croup, Dick Hannon, Evelyn Pierce and Mrs. Short. The old English pound was originally the weight of 7680 grains of wheat "taken from the middle of the ear and well dried." . LABOR OFFICE HAS HELP FOR RASI N FARMERS George Long has been selected editor-in-chief of the Klamath Krater for next year, succeeding Edna Kahl, who graduates with this year's class, it was an nounced this week by Krater ad visor, Clifford Rowe. Co-managing editors for next year win De ueorge zupan ana Jim Clabby. The post was held by George Long this year. The Krater staff will- this month, for the first time in the history of the school, put out a paper on the last day of school which will include commence ment and other graduation data. The staff also put out an issue of the Krater on the first day of school last fall. Honors went to the Krater fac ulty advisor, Clifford Rowe, this spring when he was elected state president of the Quill and Scroll, international high school jour nalism organization. Lack of Interest Postpones Jap Camp Election NEWELL. Calif., May 24 Ray R. Best, project director of the Tule Lake Segregation center for Japanese, today indefinitely postponed the elections scheduled to be held in the center, it was announced by the War Reloca tion Authority. Insufficient in terest on the part of the resi dents was given as the reason. It was planned to elect a repre sentative committee composed of not more than 12 men or women who would serve as a committee to deal with the WRA authorities in the operation of tho center, where some 18,900 segregants are housed. The different blocks were to hold meetings and make nomination on May 18. Less than one-fourth of the blocks moved to take advantage of the nominating procedures. Suspen sion of the elections will mean that there will be no form of representative participation in the operation of the project by ine residents. , Farmers of Klamath county have been asked to cooperate in making their expected labor needs known Immediately to tho county farm labor employ ment office so that arrangec monts may be made to get everv possible farm worker oil tho Job, Clyde James, Klamath county form labor assistant, said this week. Tho Klamath county farm labor office, 118 S. 6th. Is re crultlng all the workers it can to help hRrvcst tho war crops and help tho farmors meet their lBbor needs for all farm work, but they need to know as far in advance as possible the neods for both full-time and seasonal help. Farmers needing one, two, hnlf a dozen, or more boys for seasonal work or full-time sum mer work enn hire these boys through the farm labor employ, mcnt office, as there are 45 boys between the ages of 14 and 17. registered there for work. There are also six single men registered for general farm work, not yet placed, and 11 family men wanting farm Jobs where they con have living auorters for themselves and icir families. James stated that there are approximately 60 women reg istered tor potato seed cutting, onion weeding and light form work. Two of theso women have indicated that they have had experience as tractor and truck drivers and one says she is a tcamstress. Wednesday, James said that apparently the farmers have all the help they need at the pres ent time or they figure there is no help available, or maybe tney aon t Know more is a farm labor employment office in Klamath Falls wanting to help them with their labor needs. He also stated that the number of men wanting Jobs on farms now far exceeds the - demand for farm labor. Also, it is very important that . farmers make their request in advance for help so these requests will be there to offer to workers when they come in, as many of them give their addresses as -''General. Delivery" and do not con- tact the offico again, and he be lieves that these men are mov ing on to other areas If they are not placed in Klamath coun ty within a short time.

PORTLAND, May 24 (IP) Some 3300 welders are needed at uregon Shipbuilding corporation and Swan Island shipyards alone, war production training officials said today. Nearly 400 trainees are learn ing the trade as apprentices and students here, officials added. Sovent Seasoning Process Resulted From Western Pine Lab's Study of Knot Stain Br ALBERT HERMANN In Charge Western Pin Laboratory I have, until now. concerned myself with the recant devolon- monts in possible wood utilization which have boon the center of public discussion. I want to toll you a little about th projects In tho Western Pin association laboratory which may have an Impact on future utilization of wood. Foremost among these la one known as solvent seasoning or solvent extraction. The whole procexs Is ono of those quour things which happen in all rnsonrcii iiinnrotorirs where in the InvestlKutor starts out lo do ono thing and a sideline proves to be much mora Im portant and Interesting than the main objoet sought. The story Is briefly this: Throe yours ago Dr. A. U. Anderson of our research staff was assigned tho study of painting over knots. The use of No. 2 common western pine lumbar was being promoted for houso siding under the description of economy siding. The Ides, o( course was to une lower priced common grades Instead of the select grades normally employed for such purposes, Obvious ly the problem was that of preventing, if pos sible, the. bleeding through of rosin from the knots, resulting in brown spots on light colorad paint which all of you have seen, Dr. Anderson made two-pronged attack on the problem In the form of first trying all powlbla materluls as onion which could be applied to the knots before point priming, which might prevent the Hermann penetration of resins through the paint (Urn. Along with this he mado a second attack by grinding up red knots and extracting their renin in a piece of laboratory equip ment known as a Soxhlel extractor. Then followed analysts of the extractives to discover with just what materials w had to deal. The idea was that if we knew the nature of the materials we were trying to hold In check we would at least have a nrotty good hunch as to the type ot sealer required. At the end of a few weeks' work the first 24 materials tried as sealers had all failed Ignominlously. Dr. Anderson then proposed that we extract whole boards with solvent with the thought of simply removing the resins from knots and pitch streaks so that no special sealers would be required. This appeared to be rather expensive If no other pur pose than removing resins were served. It suddenly occurred to us that the solvents which were used for the removal ot pitch were also solvents for water and that It might be feasible to ex tract green material, that Is, to extract both water and resin and thus save the cost of kiln drying. For two years and a half now we have been studying the possibilities of this process and tho results have been startling, to soy the least. Some of the more outstanding characteristics of the process are these: The removal of moisture and the suhsn. qucnt evoporatlon and recovery of the solvent are very much faster than the most modern methods of kiln drying the same material. If the stock Is brought down to sufficiently low moisture content before the solvent Is driven off, checking almost com pletely disappears as a source of degrade. For example, we have extracted 6x6 green timbers in 10-foot lengths without getting checks oven in the end of the ploco. Ex tracted wood la several shades lighter In color than kiln dried or air dried material and drying stresses, generally known as case hardening, are very greatly reduced. In fact, top wood ap pears to be completely free of stress and hoarlwood but slightly case hardened without final steaming. The stresses In heartwood ere so much less than those appearing In kiln dried lumber, that their removal on a commercial basis should prove to be vory simple since the methods are well understood In tho light of our experience In kiln drying. In extracted pine, knots can be suc cessfully painted without the use of special sealers. Sherbet Glasses, Jewelry Comprise Juveniles' Loot Everything from pair of rub bers to sherbet glasses to women's Jowelry all of It stolen. That's what juvenile and police officers found In two suit cases and one salesman's sample case that they took from a 17-year-old boy, who with a com panion was arrested Saturday after he and the other boy had broken Into Beck's bakery on South Sixth. The two 17-year-olds, who are both from Jackson county, ad mitted under questioning at tho police station, that earlier in the week they had entered the bak ery and taken a wrist watch, a ladles purse and 60 conts. At the questioning the three suitcases were brought to light. Contents of the bags, according to the youth's own admission, had been stolen from a supply room and a store room In a Med ford hotel where the boy had spisuw eiiui v.i,... ..?h.1. by 8w y-r Is closing M Pjrty Thursday o clock.
