''The Big Shot" Warner Bros.
new film which shows Sunday, Mon
day and Tuesday at the Roosevelt
theatre, has story and star combin-
alton that makes for sure-fire screen
entertainment. 1t has an action-pack-
ed story which stars Humphrey Bo-
CART as one-time big shot gangster
who is caught between two fires. He
can't go straight because no honest
person wants to bother with a guy
who has been up the river three
times. And he can't get into any
more trouble because the next time
it's life!
Hounded by his past, tainted by
fellow gangsters as a has-been, Bo-
CART is driven to distraction Finally
CATER all, guy has to do some
thing to make some dough- he con-
sents to act as the Drains" for an
armored car stickup. And anyhow
the boys convinced him that nothing
could go wrong because one of the
underworld's cleverest mouthpieces
Ca role played by Stanley Ridges
was backing them. But plenty could
go wrong, especially if the lawyer
wife happened to be your former
sweetheart before you did your third
stretch.

Governors Committee Recommends
Constructive Timber Land Policy
OLYMPIA, August 1.-THE nee
essity of long range plan for the
management of timber lands within
the state is made clear by the report
of Governor Arthur B. Langlie's COM
mittee of IL capable men appointed
six months ago for the purpose OF
making study of the timber land
situation.
The confusion and conflicting pol
icies which exist under the present
system or lack of it, is the cause OF
waste and loss to the people of the
state who are the real owners of the
timber. and any plan to eliminate
this condition should be given seri-
Gus consideration.
1t is the plan of the committee to
suggest legislation to the coming
legislature which would consolidate
or eliminate conflicting boards and
prepare the way for a long range
policy in this very important matter.
The need is pressing and up to this
time it is much like the matter of
the weather, much has been said
about but little or nothing has been
done to change it. Let us hope that a
constructive program may result
from this worthy effort.

Farm Labor Situation Becomes
Increasingly Acute

Losses have allrady occurred in
farm crops in many parts of the
state and the situation becomes more
serious every week because of the
scarcity of labor and the high cost
of much that is available.
In the truck gardens, head lettuce
losses occurred in considerable vol
ume, and berries and some cherries
were and are being lost all for the
lack of people to harvest them.
The wheat harvest is causing a
serious problem which Is becoming
more serious daily just now, for
while wheat will stand a reasonable
time after it ripens which is not
true of fruit crops, yet there is loss
which becomes progressively greater
if left too long after it should be cut.
There are cases of some fine dairy
herds being sent to the butcher in
western Washington due to the diff
ficulty in obtaining people to care
for and milk them This is loss
that is serious indeed.

factors in Eastern Washington agr1-

Greater u. ). Control
Over Dairy Products
Seen by Winters End
Distribution Problems
Declared Increasing;
Rotioning Unlikely
BY the Associated Press.


Greater Government control over
consumption of dairy products be-
fore winters end was regarded
likely by Federal food authorities
today to assure meeting war needs
and permit an equitable civilian
! distribution.
The officials said they did not
consider consumer rationing likely,
however.
Milk production is at a record
level and Agriculture Department
officials expect it to continue so
during 1943.
Problems Of distribution are ris-
ing, however, as a result of un-
precedented demands for the armed
forces, the United Nations and
American civilians. Record guam
titles of cheese and dried milk are
being sent abroad under the lease
lend program.
Laid to Population Shifts.
Population shifts within the United
States resulting from the war pro-
gram were said to be creating
milk shortages in some areas be-
cause the demand has expanded
beyond local productive facilities.
In order to supply these areas, 1t
may become necessary, officials said,
for the Government to issue orders
requiring changes in distribution
patterns Of surplus milk producing
areas.
Complicating the dairy supply
problem is sharply increasing con-
sumer demand for foods growing
out Of the high level of employment
and industrial wages.
Butter May Be AIlocated.
But as IN the case of meats, which
are to be rationed later, officials
expect supplies of dairy products
| during the next IL months to be
sufficient for normal civilian re-
quirements.
However, meat rationing, coupled
with a tight fats and vegetable oil
supply situation. is believed likely
TO result in a civilian demand for
nutter and cheese that is above
normal. Should this occur, it might
become necessary, officials said, to
allocate supplies of these two kinds
OF dairy products by areas and by
PERIODS to assure a uniform and
equitable supply.

u. ). Bombers Attack
Jap Bases and Ships
In GuaddIcana|
Navy DiseIoses Enemy
Still Holds Villages;
Foes Transports Hit
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The japanese are still holding
several villages on Guadalcanal
Island, principal American base
in the Southeastern Solomons,
the Navy disclosed late yesterday
in communique reporting that
new bombing and straflng at
tacks on those and other enemy
strong points and ships had
damaged docks and buildings
and scored three hits on trans
port vessels.
Points attacked in addition to
the centers of japanese resistance
on Guadalcanal were Gizo Island.
215 miles to the northwest, and
Rekata Bay at Santa Isabel Island
185 miles away. Docks and build
ings were damaged at Rekata and
one small float plane was shot down.
These actions were carried out by
Army Flying Fortresses.
Transports Hit.
The, three hits - an unreported
number Of transports were also
made by Army Flying Fortresses
when on Thursday they discovered
the enemy transport force near
Shorthand Island, in the Western
Solomons about 259 miles from the
northwestern shore of Guadalcanal
The attack was opposed by about
20 Japanese fighters, a. Navy COM
munique said, and one fighter was
shot down.
Disclosure that the enemy was in
possession of some villages on
Guadalcanal came in a paragraph
of the communique reporting that
they had been attacked by Navy
and Marine Corps Douglas Daunt-
less dive bombers.
Marine patrols on Guadalcanal
have been active in attacking scat
tered enemy units" the communi-
que said. These operations have
been supported by Navy and Ma
rine Corps dive bombers which have
bombed and strafed enemy-held
villages and other points of resist
snce."
Marines Face Hard Fighting.
1t had previously been made
made known from the early days
of the Solomons offensive, which
began August 7, that scattered
enemy units were still loose in the
rugged interior of the big island and
apparently had access to the coast
at some points. since they had been
reinforced by landing parties prior
to their futile effort early this
month to recapture the Guadal-
canal air field.
The fact they hold villages and
possess other organized points Of
resistance, however, means that
they may be able to defend them
selves even in their comparatively
isolated positions and that much
hard fighting remains for the Ma
rines before the island can be con-
eidered entirely in American hands.
