List, Say Dealers
SEATTLE, Jan. 9 (IP) Re
tailers were rationing toilet
paper to one roll to a customer
today and some reported their
stocks exhausted for two and
three weeks. One wholesaler
saia inc ncwesi wariunc snori
age was due to manufacturers
having halted production on
the cheaper grades because they
could not make sufficient prof
its under present price ceilings

also was due to diversion of

nitions and there was not suffi
cient paper pulp to keep mills

pacity. Adult Spanish Class

was Influenced by this optimistic
thinking when it lightened up
on poinl rationing. Then came
the German counter - offensive
that dashed our hopes of an ear
ly end of war in Europe and
made it clear that surpluses after
the war, if they develop, will be
better than dangerous shortages
before the war is ended.
Hence, presumably, the re
sumption 01 point rationing.
CUT you can't convince the
cynics that it was anything
but a deep-laid political scheme,
and it is perfectly obvious down
here that people with unused
shoe stamps in their nossession
don't propose to take anybody's
word for it that the stamps are
not going to be cancelled. They
nn: Bums to nci snoes on mem
while the getting is good.
e
TT is reasonably probable that
this whole sequence cf point
rationing relaxation, followed
by resumption of point rationing
ACCOMPANIED by cancellation
ol inc stamps mat people had ac
cumulated during the relaxation
period was due to bad guessing
on the part of our governmental
autnorities.
But it was certainly unfortu.
nate, because it resulted in wide
spread destruction of confidence
in what our government tells us.
You can't listen to what oeODle
queued up in these waiting lines
are saying without coming to
that plain and definite conclu
sion. The gist of what they are say
ing is this: "I'm not going to be
caught with ANY MORE stamps
in-my possession. Hereafter I'm
going to spend them as fast as I
lay hands on them."
You hear that statement over
and over.
PICKLED PETS
Until comparatively recently,
French peasants often ate cats as
rabbits. It is said that the prac
tice persists in some sections of
the country. In China, both cats
and dogs are pickled whole and
then eaten. ,
Klamath Heating company of
ficials announced Tuesday that
approximately 2000 units of
hogged fuel had been located at
Lamm Lumber company plant,
Modoc Point, and an effort
would be made to obtain the
fuel which will be trucked here
to relieve the company's short
age. John W. Kirby, manager of
the Klamath Heating company,
said that the 2000 units com
prises some 30 days' supply,
coupled with the usual source
of supply, but that no definite
assurance that the hogged fuel
could be obtained had been giv
en his firm Tuesday by the of
fice of price administration.
The new ruling on fuel ra
tioning affects hogged fuel used
by the plant, as well as other
forms of fuel, Kirby pointed
out.
The heating plant is making
plans to convert one boiler to
oil, but this is being held up
pending action of the petroleum
administrator, Kirby said.
Entomologist to
Work On DDT Release
CORVALLIS, Jan. 9 (Pi Dr.
Don C. Mote, head of the Oregon
State college entomology depart
ment, has gone .to Washington,
U. C, to represent western ag
ricultural experiment stations at
a meeting on the 1945 use of
DDT. new insecticide.
He will urge the release of
enough of the miracle insect kill
er to control the hairy vetch
weevil, a threat to Oregon's
vetch seed production. Limited
tests-made by federal entomolo
gists in the state last season
showed DDT the only insecticide
yet found to effectively combat
the weevil.
Unless DDT is supplied, Ore

wartime goals for vetch seed, in
demand by southern states, said
farm crops specialists here.
