The resolution, adopted yesterday upon recommendation of the state association's grazing committee, protested any increase of grazing fees on Taylor act land and opposed the sale of private and deeded land to the government, particularly the forest service.

It favored the Mc-Nary bill. The convention heard Dr. A. L. Strand, president of Oregon State College, trace the similarities between sheepmen and educators.

"Both require men with Ideals and continuity of method," Dr. Strand said. "They must improve constantly on their original product. They both must build so that their ideas are perpetuated. Dr.

Strand said that the function of education is to relate the individual to the environment in which he lives and that the successful sheepman is the one most in harmony in his methods with the surrounding territory. President Mae Hoke, Pendleton, urged growers to hasten victory with maximum production of meat and wool. He also advocated government purchase of the entire 1943 wool clip. The convention requested the Baker county court to organize a fire district in grazing district No. 6.

Puget Sound Area Digging Itself Out (Bt the Assorlated Press) The Puget Sound area was digging itself out today and power and telephone services gradually were being restored by line crews which worked 24 to 40 hours without rest after storms left Lumbermen Discussing Manpower Portland, Ore" Jan. 22 (Pi- Manpower problems held the at tention of the Pacific logging congress today after the president of the West Coast Lumbermen's association paid the industry high tribute for its 1942 production record. Orville R. Miller told 400 delegates from Oregon, Washington, California, Idaho and Montana yesterday that if the navy's pennants were awarded to loggers, "there would be one flying from every snag in the woods." The 'fir belt produced feet last year, the pine region 8,050,000,000 and the redwood area 500,000,000 he said, "and we did it in spite of furnishing Henry J. Kaiser with thousands of skilled loggers to help build his ships." This vear's lumber demand will not be quite so great, Miller predicted but there will be more emphasis on specialized types, particularly airplane lumber.

He warned the industry to meet peacetime problems with the same determination it tackled war production, adding, "if you don't, there are those in high places who are eager to do it for you and you know who I mean." Forest fire control problems occupied a major share of the opening day sessions. and Son. Waarvick, who had celebrated his 53rd birthday anniversary last Sunday, was an expert ski enthusiast.

Committee Chairman Fulmer S.C.) said he would try to have the legislation brought before the house at an early date, and predicted it soon would be placed on the president's desk, "Many of the principal agricultural commodities now are selling under present ceilings at more than what the recalculated parity would be," Pace said.

Boats took rations to telephone linemen on one Puget sound island where no food was available and ferry service was irregular. A snowslide took out a section of flume near Electron pow er plant on the Puyallup river yesterday but reserve plants quickly restored the service. Most of the Seattle area shipyards and other war plants were operating on "half speed," but the big Boeing aircraft plants still were shut down except for maintenance and office crews.

Major Seattle stores continued closed but the retail trade bureau said most of them planned to re-open Saturday. All Seattle schools continued closed. Shutdowns of small bakeries, due to power failures, delivery troubles and labor shortage were blamed for an unprecedented "run" on bread which caused the larger Seattle bakeries, to plead for "sanity" in buying supplies. Many stores had none for sale yesterday, A line failure yesterday left Port Angeles and other Olympic peninsula communities without power for heat and light Thursday forenoon. Most businesses shut down.

Port Ludlow was without ferry services yesterday. Vashon ferries carried only foot passengers. Bank at Monmouth Re-elects Directors Monmouth, Jan. 22 Bank directors re-elected at the First National Bank of Monmouth are John Wienert, C. C.

R. Graham and James The annual meeting, held on Tuesday, revealed deposits more than one hundred per cent for the year. Deposits December 31, 1941, were $446,288.24 and December 31, 1942, $904,323.39, an increase of $458,034.95. There are few rOral banks in Oregon which can duplicate this showing. The number of farmers from Ih ecantonment area who were financed at the local bank from the time of signing up their properties to the government to the actual receipt of government money is said to have exceeded the total number handled in all the other cities close to the area, combined.

The presence of 40 or more officers' families as residents of Monmouth is also reflected in the bank deposit show-' ing. Lyman PhilliDs Now Full Colonel Pendleton. Jan. 22. T.w.

FRED MEYER GROCERY DEPT. 110 N. Libert? St. Stocks Advance Irregularly In Active Trading New York, Jan. 22 (P) Support for assorted industrials, mainly blue chips, kept recovery lights burning in today's gtock market although profit taking cast shadows on many recent climbers.

Top gains ran to 2 points or to. Rails, steels and motors backed water and, in the final hour, prices were moderately mixed. Transfers were around 1,000,000 shares. War news, Investment demand and mild inflation sentiment again served as the principal bolstering influence. Nothwithstanding uneven tendencies toward the last, many favorites posted new peaks for 1942-43.

These included Oliver Farm, Deere, Montgomery Ward, International Nickel, Air Reduction American Can. WestinC- hpuse, General Electric, Dow Chemical, Allied Chemical ana Pepsi-Cola.

Heartening to Wall streoters was the sale of two Stock exchange memberships at $28,000 each, up $1,000 from the last previous transaction.

Grain Futures Show Gains Chicago, Jan. 22 (U.B Grain futures rallied to sharp gains onj the board of trade today, under the influence of a campaign to revise farm parity prices upward to include farm labor costs. All markets closed with net gains. Wheat finished the day up to.lV4 cents a bushel; corn up oats up to rye up 1 to 1 and soybeans off Vi House farm bloc approval of the new parity bill lifted wheat prices to gains of almost two cents a bushel and gave a bullish tone to the trading. The revision, which would add perhaps 10 to 12 per cent to parity prices, was defeated last September after the president expressed complete disapproval.

the need for farm la bor and production both urgent, traders regarded the outlook for the new formula optimistically Rye led the day's advance in prices and retained gains of about one cent a bushel. While wheat circles watched for developments in Washington, the market followed the upturn of rye, and some mill-buying re suited. Southwest interests 11 quidated September wheat, sales credited to hedging. The corn market lagged but prices firmed with other grains. Commission houses traded on both sides of the oats market but prices hold firm.

Oil Stocks Still Critically Low Washington, Jan. 22 (U.R) Further tightening of petroleum restrictions in the east and extension of fuel oil rationing to Oregon and Washington appeared possible today as Deputy Petroleum Administrator Ralph K. Davies warned that oil stocks remain "critically" low.

There was no official confirmation, but office of price administration spokesmen admitted that the fuel oil supply situation in the Pacific northwest recently has become increasingly serious because of transportation difficulties comparable to those which have hit the 17 eastern states.
