OPA INCREASE
ON CEILINGS
SET
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13 M)
j.he OPA Tuesday announced
an increase of 75 cents a hun
dredweight in the ceiling price
on barrow and gilt hogs weigh
ing more than 270 pounds.
Effective today, the new price
will be $14.75 a hundred for
these heavier types. The change
will not apply to sows, stags
and boars, which will continue
lo have a ceiling of $14.
All hogs weighing less than
270 pounds already have a max
imum price of SH.75.
Extension of the higher ceil
ing to heavier gilts and barrows
was recommended by the war
food administration and ap
proved by Stabilization Direc
tor Fred M. Vinson.
Explaining the adjustment,
OPA said that harvesting of a
record crop of corn this year
and a "satisfactory improve
ment" in the supply of other
types of feed prompted the
change.
It added that farmers now
may feed hogs to heavier
weights "without the fear of a
discount." This should result,
the agency said, in a greater
volume of pork and lard from
hogs now on hand.
"At present, the demands for
pork products and lard by gov
ernment procurement agencies
are extremely high, and the
shortage of this class of produc
tion for civilians is being felt
nationally," OPA said.
It was stated that without
weight limitations and with
adequate feed supplies, "a farm
er can hold his hogs for a lim
ited time when and If market
gluts develop."

SALEM, Dec. 13 IP) The
1251 married couples who took
advantage of the 1943 Oregon
community property law could
be permitted by legislative act,
to elect to so back to the old
system, Attorney General George
Neuner ruled today lor Gover
nor Earl Snell.
Neuner said that the Oregon
act is still valid, although the
United States supreme court de
cided that the Oklahoma com
munity property law could not
be used to split incomes of hus
bands and wives in order to
come under lower federal in
come tax brackets.
The Oregon law, providing
that persons may elect to come
under community property, was
copied from the Oklahoma law.
While the Oregon law still is
valid, Neuner said that its single
purpose to reduce Jederal in
come taxes for more wealthy
couples has been defeated by
the united states supreme c "t.

day, December 5, when a $20,-
000 bond issue was presented
to the community at a special
election for their approval. A
vote of 75 to 25 decided in fa
vor of the construction of a
new building.
Success of the issue was at
tributed to two factors it was
almost impossible to wade
through the water in the pres

tion of the building itself is
not favorable.

Have a "Coke"Merry Christmas
. . . adding refreshment to holiday cheer
The spirit of good will rules the Christmas season. It's a time to get together
with friends and family ... a time when all we mean by home la its gracious
ness and friendliness Is at its peak. In such an atmosphere Coca-Cola belongs,
ice-cold and sparkling with life. There's a whole story of hospitality in the
three words Have a "Coke", three words that express a friendly spirit the
whole year 'round. Yes, Coca-Cola and the pause that refreshes are everyday
Symbols of a way of living that takes friendliness for granted.
