Wheat Salvaged
By Mexican Workers
CORVALLIS, Oct 12 (P)
Thirty-eight Mexican farm work
ers helped salvage 39,000 bush
els of wheat from the smoulder
ing ruins of two large elevators
in Gilliam county this summer,
J. R. Beck, state extension farm
labor supervisor, disclosed to
day. Beck said the Mexicans, with
a dozen American boys, worked
for nearly a month to recover
the wheat after a fire destroyed
two 60,000 bushel elevators at
Mikkalo, owned by the Condon
Grain Growers' cooperative. The
grain, unfit for flour, was used
for stock feed.

The lamb market at North Portland
October 9 was steady despite the ar
rival of 2000 head, nearly double the
small supply of a week previous. Good
to choice wooled lambs brought mostly
$11.30 with a lew at fll.75. while good
shorn lambs were $10 25. Light rango
feeders were $9. Midwestern markets

Francisco lamb market was steady with
choice lambs quoted to $14. About
1400 southern Oregon lambs were offer
ed but no sales were quoted.
Report from the country Indicate
that improved wheat pasture has stim
ulated inquiry for feeding lambs but
the number brought off ranges last
week fell short of expectations. Firm to
higher asking prices tended to keep
country sales down to a moderate
volume. A good share of the Oregon
range lambs apparently have moved to
market wthor hv owners or local buy
ers. Forward contracting this season
Is reported as unusauiiy tig, uue
largely to uncertainty of feeding facili

lambs.

Habit Forming,
Isn't it?
PORTLAND, Oct. 12 (P) A
long line had formed in a
downtown shopping center.
An elderly woman took her
place, and moved slowly along
with the crowd for nearly half
an hour.
"What are we waiting for?"
she asked a neighbor as she
neared the tobacco counter.
"They've got some cigarettes
on sale," the neighbor replied.
"Oh, I don't smoke," the
woman said, and went about
her business.
The labor demand for the spud
harvest underway now is at its
peak, according to reports re
ceived iroin me coumy ngi-m a
office. A good many crews arc
short of help all over the Klam

or can work should do so at once
by registering at the farm labor
employment office.
This harvest is of vital import
ance and H is again urgea tnai
any persons able to give even
one day's work or a weekend,
do it now. This harvest is re
nnrtedlv one of the largest ever
seen in this area and all the help
possible is needed to get it in

WASHINGTON, Oft. 12 M'l
Great Britain has n uiK market
(or American production, says
Representative Stockman IH
Ore.), but he doesn't believe that
there, is cither desire or income
sufficient to raise any hopes
among American exporters.
Stockman has just relumed
from a visit in KiiKland, Scot
land, Ireland and France. As a
farmer, he made a special effort
to observe niiriculturiil condi
tions; as a legislator, he found
one thing in parliamentary prac
tice that he believes would be
utilized by congress.
"I think we ought to have
something like the British ques
tion time," he said in an inter
view. "It's a period when mem
bers can question administration
representatives directly from the
floor."
Europe's farms reminded
Stockman somewhat of the Wil
lamette valloy in Oregon in cas
ual appearance, except that they
are smaller and bordered by
hedgerows, instead of fences. A
lack of sunshilic, he said, limits
their productiveness and a lack
of modern equipment and con
veniences and methods offered
other contrasts with Oregon agri
culture. He noted one thing in favor of
British agriculture a lack of
erosion. Grass crows through
out the year, everywhere, so
there is little mud in the streams
even after a heavy rain, he said.
But the lack of variety of veg
etables was evident. Stockman
noted that polatoes, cauliflower
and cabbage were available in
quantities, such things as carrots
and beets seemed to bo luxuries
and he saw nut a singlo stalk of
corn.
Judge Says Double
Standard Used
PORTLAND. Oct. 12 (.f)
Municipal Judge William Sea
brook said today he would not
be guided by a double standard
in future cases involving girls
and service men.
Commenting during the trial
of a girl accused of disorderly
conduct with a sailor, Judge
Scabrook said ho was advised
that most servico men, turned
over to shore or military police,
escape punishment.
"It is definitely unfair to sen
(enco these single girls when
their male companions go free,
In the future I shall feel justi
fied in continuing cases against
single girls indefinitely unless
their male companions also arc
punished," he said.
