THE NYSSA G ATE CITY JO U R NA L THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1941 Employes Draw Wa?e Benefits The Call Anici lea Heeds Salem, Nov. 13 (Special) — Ore gon’s unemployed have drawn In benefits exactly half of the contri butions made by employers since the state law went Into effect nearly six j years ago. This was strikingly shown this week when the coir.mission's deposit of $16,260,000 with th“ federal gov ernment exactly equalled the total amount withdrawn for benefits. La ter. other contributions came In to boost the fund to $16,411,000, an all- time high and about six and a half million above the same date last year. Although the “6 per cent celling" rray be Increased nearly a million dollars from the $14,373,500 now in effect, officials anticipate that the size of the fund will be well over the new mark on December 31, 1941. and probably throughout 1942. Un less the fund falls below the new "ceilin'?” of about $1 ".400,000, em-| plcyers will pay no i>enalty rates next year. The unemployment conrmissicn this year has received $8,560,433 in taxes and interest as compared with $6.925 753 for all of 1910 Benefits to the Jobless have amounted to $2,206,844 in 1941 as compared with $4,099,925 for all of last year.

The active file of regi-'e-ed work ers available for Jobs rose slightly during October from 19,185 to 21,370. Initial and continued claims for benefits taken at 23 state employ ment offices also showed a seasonal upturn during the last w:ok of Oc tober and first week of November. November Saving Five Big Days November 14 to jff&jr Chenille Robes «s* MM That the cash payment of Oregon farmers for labor runs into huge fig ures Is shown by census reports now being studied by extension econo mists at Oregon State college. The 1940 census shows, for example, that in 1939 about half the farms in Oregon made f\ cash outlay of about $16.000,000.000 for labor. This figure includes reports from only about half the farms and does not Include the value of board and living quarters frequently supplied, or payments made In the form of farm products. In 1939 the farm ex pense for labor accounted for ap proximately one.thlrd of all the farm production costs. Since the farm labor supply has been reduced by defense conditions, it is known that farm labor rates are now nearly half again as high as they were in 1939, the extension economists point out.

New Variety Of Stockings Sold Corvallis, Nov. 13 (Special) —The new type cotton stockings in full- fashioned sheer and light weights as well as those for heavier service, are now available in larger shopping centers in Oregon, reports Miss Lucy Lane, specialist on clothing and tex tiles at Oregon State college. The many new styles now appearing were designed by the bureau of heme economics of the U. S. de partment of agriculture, and were ready when the shortage of silk and nylon developed. These new stockings are full fa shioned. which means that they are knitted to shape to the, ankle and curve of the leg so that they fit snugly. Numerous other construc tion fea’ures include foot reinforce ments for soles, heels, and toes, and hose are provided in many popular two - way stretch tops. The new colors and styles, both for everyday wear with house dresses and slacks, or in designs so sheer that they are suitable with dressier clothes and light weight shoes. widely in quality even when they spend exactly the same amount for food. Whether on the farm or in the city, the homemakers who pro vide their families with good diets are those who spend their grocery dollars wisely, are good cooks, and smart meal planners, she said. The difference between good diets and poor diets is largely in the amounts of the protective foods used, such as milk, eggs, green and leafy vegeta bles, and those fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C. Sheep Disease Is Discovered Corvallis, Nov. 13 (Special)—Much of the unexplained sheep loss in western Oregon is believed due to a new disease just discovered by Dr. O. H. Muth, associate professor of veterinary medicine at Oregon State college. This disease is known as listerella or listerellosis. The trouble has also been known as circling disease beciu.se Infected sheep wander around in circles but ting into fences and other objects. These peculiar symptoms are caused by bacteria which enter the brain stem and cause an inflammation of the brain and spinal cord. While this disease had previous ly been reported from England, New Zealand, and some of the eastern parts of the United States, this is Corvallis, Nov. 13 (Special) — The the first record of its appearance in amount a family spends for food by the western states, says Dr. Muth. no means determines whether it will have a good or poor diet, says W e H av e R esum ed Dr. Helen Mitchell of Washington.

Nov. 13, (Special) — Jubilant over a 19 to 0 victory from the UCLA Bru ins, Oregon State's football squad settled down to serious business to day preparing for an invasion to the south to play the California Bears November 15 at Berkeley. Hal Moe, backfi?ld coach of the Beavers, brought back a report from, a scouting trip of the California- Washlngton game last Saturday that praised greatly the vastly im proved playing of the California team over that played at the Wr it of the season. Moe exclaimed, "They have great ly improved their style of play, us ing more passes than ever before and using them to great effective ness The Bears completed 7 out of 17 passes for 133 yards during the bnll game. The Bears made five of their eight first downs via the air." Favorite pass receiver of the Cal ifornia team, says Moe, is Walt Gor don, who was the main receiver that afternoon. “The Bears have a wealth of material," said Moe, “with men four and five deep for every position. These fellows are all ex perts one way or another and when ever a certain situation comes up, there is always a man ready to car ry out th at assignment.” California beat UCLA 27 to 7 two weeks ago and Southern California earlier in the season. Oregon State won over UCLA by a lesser score and losa to Southern California which shows that the Beavers have anything but a picnic on their hands this coming week end. Coach Lon Stiner of the Beavers was well pleased with the showing of his charges last Saturday against the Bruins, praising the morale and good spirit shown by them. Notice ably fine work was turned in by Don Durdan, star right halfback, whose desperate dive after a pass over the goal line scored one of the touch downs for the Beavers.
