Paper Weights,
Sizes Reduced
Paper manufacturers of the Pa-
cif.c Northwest for some time have
been facing a situation of increas
ing demands and a falling off of
available supplies for manufactur
ing purposes. Recently the pulp
and paper division of the war pro
duction board sought to aid the
paper people through the issuance
of new schedules covering the var
ious types of manufactured papers.
As a result, it is now believed
that the available materials will
be stretched to meet exceptionally
heavy demands and at the same
time bring about a saving of 1100
car l<jads of shipping space. This
has been done by lowering weights
and sizes of paper used for paper
napkins, towels, writing tablets,
envelopes, social and business cor
respondence, and ledger stock.
George K. Comstock, regional
director for the war production
board in the Pacific Northwest,
calls attention to the fact that the
war production board has not only
worked out a program whereby
there will be as much available
paper for the consumers, but at
the same time there will be a
rather heavy savings of space in
shipping facilities. The answer is
that where one sheet of paper
was found before on the new
schedule two will show up now.

OPA,
Washington, D. C., declared at a
recent meeting with plant trans
portation committee officials at
the OPA district office.
Lounsbury emphasized that sup
plemental gasoline should be de
nied to drivers who do not carry a
full load of passengers when pub-
lie buses, street cars or trains
are adequate.
“Some think from conflicting
stories that have appeared in the
papers that the rubber situation
may ease up,” he declared, “but
never in the history of this war
as long as it lasts, will we have
enough rubber to take care of es
sential war workers and civilians
and meet military needs.”
“We have a rubber crisis in
Portland, now,” Lounsbury em
phasized, “and one in Portland,
Maine, and in every industrial
city in the United States.”
Oregon Second in

Oregon slipped to second place
in the enlistment of men for th,e

battalions
(Seabees) in the western division
during August according to word
just received by Lt.-Cmdr. G. F.
DeGrave, in charge of the Port
land navy recruiting station.
It was the first time in recent
months that Oregon has not lead
the division in Seabee recruiting.
Washington spurted ahead during
the last week of the month to fin
ish on top by a slender margin.
' But we're going to get back
into first place this month,” de
clares Commander DeGrave, “and
I’m certain this substation will
play an important part in regain-
ing the lead. It’s a job that we
must do if our future invasion
campaigns are successful, for the
Seabees are a vital unit in any
invasion plan.’’

Buying Program
For Peas Stopped
There will be no government
purchase program for Austrian
winter field peas in 1944, W. C.
Johnson, chairman of the county
AAA committee, announced this
week, advising county growers to
plan their fall planting according-
iy-
This means, the chairman said,
that the price of Austrian winter
peas will not be supported at 5
cents a pound as it has been for
the past two years and farmers
who plant peas should do so with
the understanding that the seed
will be sold on the open market.
While no announcements of the
1944 seed purchase program has
been received, it appears definite
that the program will be limited
to common and hairy vetch, Mr.
Johnson reported. The purchase
prices for these two crops under
this year’s program are 5 cents for
common and 10 cents for hairy
vetch, but there has been no indi
cation as to next year’s prices.
