Eugene, June 2.-The Eugene

acity operations with a full crew
of 19 men this week, as soon as
the crew can be assembled said G.
.. Peterson, manager of the plant
last night.
The mill has been operating

for excelsior have come recently

he is justified in operating with a
full crew for time at least. He
says the orders are coming for the

melon season is over he looks for
another quiet period Thee esmelon
shipping season is expected to last

SEEK MATRLNONY
TO AVOID TAX

LONDON, Jan. 26-(United Press) -
The new Puritan tax on bachelors in
order to provide bonuses for babies is
having its effects here.
Bachelors are ceasing to brag about
their happy state.
AT the beginning Of 1920 a band OF
bachelors gathered together and
formed the Leap Years Bachelor
Club. They pledged themselves to
most stringent rules, which included
a taboo ION theater visiting in the
company OF a representative OF the
menacing sex. The founder OF the
club was the first to fall.
After that, they all caved in and
stocktaklng on New Years proved
that only one member was left OF the
gallant throng Of sworn celebrates.
And now, in the early days Of 1921
comes this distant rumbllng from
France. A tax on bachelors in order
to bonus other mems babiesl
Great Heavens r. they mutter, "this
thing might get to England any day
now
There is no talk now OF forming a
1921 Bachelors Club. In such circum-
stances. unity, instead OF making
them strong only makes them con-
spicuous. Bachelors no longer posi-
as irresponsible, care-free devils,
dingling money. The fear Of taxation
is driving them into matrimony, and
II any babies are TO be bonused they
intend TO be the fathers Of them
rather than the bachelor supporters
OF them.
At the. present rate Of marriage
when the time comes for the Commis-
! sioners OF Inland Revenue to levy
their tax on bachelors, Il is more than
likely the papers will be returned
