500-1000 Miles An Hour
Gale Seen As Result Of
Atomic Bomb Experiment
WASHINGTON, Jan.-28 (P)
A wind that would make a 75
mile an hour hurricane leem
like a, 'leaf-fluttering xephyr
. generating a velocity of 500 to
1000 miles an hour lively will
reult from the navy's atomic
bomb experiment on warships
at lonely Bikini atoll.
This was one of the predic
tions made by navy and military
experts as they speculated upon
( the effect of the bomb in its
first application over water.
The initial pressure blast of
hundreds of thousands of pounds
' per square inch at the core of
J the .explosion would:
' 1 Pronto lh 500 to 1000 miles

2. Pile up 100-foot waves rac

Map Lands Army
Private In Jail
PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 28 (P)
A crudely drawn map took an
army private on a nocturnal
treasure hunt whose trail led to
jail today.
Pvt. Joseph Torres, 24, Fort,
Lewis, Wash., "was held by the
county grand jury on a charge of
burglary because his treasure
map was a sketch of an apart

tectives early today.
Detective George Turner said
Torres told him that at Eureka,
Calif., he was told by a jail pris
oner of a $400 cache in the wall
of a Portland apartment. A map
went with the information.
When Torres arrived at Fort
Lewis for basic training Friday
he decided to make the search,
Turner quoted him as saying.
Detectives, called by a tenant
who heard someone in the vacant
apartment, found Torres and his
map but no treasure.

Negotiations
Completed On
Rubber Sales
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28 (VP)
The stato department an
nounced today completion of
price negotiations for purchase
of natural rubber from British,
Dutch and French areas in the
Far East. .
The price was fixed at 20 i
cents a pound for standard top
grades, delivered free on board
ocean-going steamers at Far
Eastern ports. Under terms of
the agreement the reconstruc
tion finance corporation sub
sidiary, the rubber develop
ment corporation, will buy nil
rubber in those areas allocated
to the United States by the
combined rubber committees.
The agreement will cover the
period September 2, 1945 V-J
Day through June 30, 1946,
in the case of the Dutch and
the French, and the period Sep
tember 2 thiough March 31,
1946, in the case of the United
Kingdom from whose areas sub
stantial quantities of rubber al
ready have been shipped, the
announcement said.
U. S. Capacity
The American-British-French.
Dutch study group reported
November 24 that the United
States capacity for the produc
tion of synthetic rubber is now
about 1,055,000 tons a year and
that the estimated total world
capacity is between 1,200,000
and 1,400,000 tons.
At that time, the board said
its survey showed that plant
manufacturing costs in the
United States "have declined
markedly in the recent past
and are more than covered by
the present selling price of
18 "4 U. S. cents per pound for
general purpose synthetic rub
ber." RFC officials said the last
price paid by the United States
before the war for natural rub
ber from the Far Eastern areas
was 18 cents a pound.
KF Fourth In

Klamath Falls ranked fourth

mits issued in Oregon in De
cember, 1945, according to a
release of Pacific Northwest
building.'

ber of permits granted while

third. Medford placed fifth. It
was noted that every state in
the northwest at least doubled
their year-ago building. Oregon
showed the highest gain.
