"THIS Portland experience is significant because discrimi nation in buying that is to say, buying less when the price is too high represents sound and normal working of the law of supply and demand. Because it is sound and normal it will probably CONTINUE, and if it continues it will be ef fective in restoring a balance be tween supply and demand and so will in the course of time bring prices down. 'T'HE tendency of a spectacular week-long "strike" on the buying of meat, etc., will be to do without for a week and then to feel that you've done your duty and go on a steak binge. GESTURES usually work out that way. The Portland housewives have a much better method. Jap Tuna Men Help Shortage TOKYO, July 17 (P) Fish ing is good for Japan's increased tuna fleet now that it operates as far as 165 degrees east longi tude almost to Wake island. And good fishing is helping the critical food shortage at home. Soviet Russia at first opposed extension of Japan's fishing area, but the allied control council for Japan approved larger fishing grounds for the Japanese nonetheless, and no further Russian protests were heard.

Wheeler, veteran chairman of the senate interstate commerce committee who was tabbed by his Montana democratic primary opponent as a "leading isolationist," conceded defeat today in his bid for a fifth term. Lief Erickson, 40 -year-old former state Judge, apparently won the nomination from Wheel er after a bitter contest, in which Wheeler's labor views also were attacked. Wheeler congratulated his op ponent after Erickson had main tained consistently a lead of around 4509 as the count of Tuesday's votes progressed. With 689 of 1158 precincts reported, Erickson had 38.984 and Wheeler 34.362. A letter from President Tru man defending Wheeler's record on railroad labor was made pub lic a few days before the voting. John L. Lewis' United Mine Workers also supported the vet eran legislator. Erickson was backed by James Roosevelt, son of the late presi dent; Senator Murray (D-Mont.), Wheeler's colleague; the CIO PAC, and the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen. His November opponent will be Zalcs N. Ecton, Manhattan farmer, who easily won the re publican nomination from R. E. Skeen, a railroad brakeman.
