Newspaper Page TextRed Cross Drive Far From Quota The 1946 drive for funds for the American Red Cross was progressing slowly in Klamath county as only one-seventh of the $43,100 quota had been reached as the campaign ended its third week. Although this is not a wartime year and the quota is the highest of any peacetime quota, workers were doubling their efforts to raise the fund which still is necessary in many war channels. Today the amount on hand was $6800. Compute Contacti Residential workers will com plete their contacts, with but few exceptions, this week accord ing to Mrs. Bob Henry, chairman. Otto Sari and Roy Carter re ported this week that S 6th street area was virtually com plete and the East Main street business district workers were now making their contacts. Robert A. Thompson, drive chairman, urged Klamath folks to be as generous this year as they have been in the past and reminded' that "$1.00 wasn't enough." Added to membership in the $100 club were the following: Geary Brothers seed ranch, Dick B. Miller, Reed Tractor and Equipment, Dr. and Mrs. Warren C. Hunt, Standard Stations Inc., Southern Oregon Amusement company, Mr. and Mrs. Robert P.

Porter, OPA adminis trator, said today there would be "some price increases" s the result of approved-' wage boosts but predicted that the new wage-price policy would have little or no effect upon rents or on "the average of food prices." In a speech prepared for a luncheon of the union for dem ocratic action, Porter declared that "as far as the basic eco nomics of our problem is con cerned, we can continue to hold the average of prices to a slight increase during the coming year," and added: "The new wnge-price policy will add somewhat to the rate of creeping public increases. Let's not duck this reality. Ap proved wage increases will lend to some price increases which would not have occurred under the original wage-price policy. In the majority of American in dustries, however, prospective earnings are so well above pre war levels that reasonable wage increases can be negotiated without raising prices. "It is clear that the new wage-price policy will have no effect on the level of rents. It would have little effect on the average of food prices. And it will have little or no effect up on a variety of miscellaneous living costs." Flames Fatal To 2 Persons BEND, Ore., March 22 (JPh Jean Muriel Petrie, 36, and James Fitzgerald, about 47,'1 died in a blaze which destroyed a two-room house yesterday, but two others escaped.

He told state and city investigators that the stove exploded when some thing apparently a blanket was thrown on it, and blazing oil was spewed all over the room. The men said the sudden wall of flame barred Mrs. Petrie and Fitzgerald from the door. Sheriff Claude L. McCauley identified the woman as the estranged wife of George Petrie, storekeeper at Millican, Oregon's "one-man" town. FIFTY-FIFTY FULTON, Mo., March 22 VP) Callaway County Prosecutor Hugh P.
