BONDS—At Chicago, Barcus, Kindred & Company surveyed the municipal bond field and found 1939 had brought a drop of $364,- 454,000 (or 24 per cent) under 1929 in total bonds issued. Among reasons: (1) Pay-as-you-go financ- ing; (2) diminishing birth rate, which requires fewer schools. RATION—Britain announced that meat would be rationed ef- fective March 11. Already ra- tioned are butter, sugar, ham and bacon. RISKS—Because Europe’s war has steered clear of Pan-Ameri- can waters, marine underwriters have lowered war risk insurance rates in that area.

Observers asked themselves wheth- er this was the reason French au- thorities had raided the Russian commercial office in Paris, delib- erately inviting Soviet reprisals. Also, was it the reason Turkey, a British-French ally, unceremoniously seized the German-owned ship yard in the Bosporus? The Wars In the West. France reported the quietest period since the war began almost six months ago, and Nazi raids on North sea shipping were slackened perceptibly. In the North. Finnish troops re- pulsed one Soviet attack after an- other, most activity being confined to the area around Lake Ladoga. Finnish military observers estimat- ed that reckless use of manpower had cost the Reds 20,000 dead and wounded in a single week. Nevertheless, increasing rhythm of Soviet attacks was wearing the Finns down, a situation that dis- turbed the allies increasingly. Fol- lowing a meeting of the British- French war council, it was an— nounced concrete aid would be rushed at once. Prime Minister Chamberlain told the house of com- mons as much, while France kept relaying Italian warplanes which Germany refused to let cross the Reich. How Italy is cooperating with the Finns was revealed in Rome by Fin- nish Minister Eero Jaernefelt, who reported 5,000 Italian volunteers have been turned down because no visas were available. But hundreds have been granted, too. (LEnthroned: Supreme Court Jus- tice Frank Murphy, President Roosevelt’s fifth appointee.

Land Use Meeting Scheduled Friday At Agent’s Office A county Wide meeting on land use problems will be held at the extension office starting at 10:00 A. M., Friday, February 16th. l During the past year farmers lhave met in the various commun- ities of the county to discuss land use in that particular area. In this study the farmers have stu- died an ownership map giving due consideration to each piece of property as to whether the land lis deSirable for agriculture 0!‘ whether it should be in forest land. In areas of desirable agri- cultural land the present farm set-up is considered as to cleared 'acreage, type of farming, and farm management. The particu- lar farm is then colored on the ownership map with a color indi- cative of the condition. The map 'shows areas that are not now farmed but are desirable for farm- ing should such expansion devel- op. It also shows areas that are farmed and probably should not be farmed, as well as forest and irange areas. l It isylikely such a land classifi- Ication by those living in the com-r [munity and knowing the land, will be of considerable value in the near future. The object of the meeting on Friday is to have representatives from all the communities study lthe county as a whole and make necessary adjustments if neces- sary. On the land that is now being farmed the yellow color indicates that most of the farming units in IMason County have insufficient cleared land for an economic farm unit. This committee will study . these conditions and make neces- sary recommendations. Millard Resigns DeMolay Position Olympia, February 13~Supreme Court Justice William M.

Thursday, Februar During Past Month Seattle, February 13—“In most markets west coast lumber prices fell off during January,” the West Coast Lumbcrmen's association said today in its monthly survey of the industry. The report said “the horizon of the west coast lumber market darkened during January, with the pressure of a continuing decline of {general business throughout the lcountry, and the diminishing sup- 'ply of shipping space for the in- ldustry’s intercoastal trade.” This weekly average of west coast lumber production in Janu- ary (five weeks) was 123,553,000 board feet, or 62.7 per cent of the iweekly average for 1926-29, the iindustry’s years of highest capac- iity realization.
