g STAMP NEWS.

THE discovery" of the Amazon
 river by Francisco de Orellana, Spanish explorer, is commemorate ed in a series of eight stamps re- gently released by Ecuador. :
 Actual discovery of the Amazon where it enters the Atlantic was made by Vicente Yanez Pinzon, a companion of Columbus who sighted the rivers mouth in 1900.
 A small expedition of 50 men led by Orellana left Guayaquil in May, 1541, to join a larger force headed by Gonzalo Pizarro which left from Quito. Together they started from the eastern slopes of the Andes down thousands of miles to tlSe ocean.
 Food became scarce and the ex- petition separated. Orellana and 57 picked men went down river in search of provisions and reached the Atlantic in September, 1542, ahead of the other group.
 Remnants of Orellana's force, decimated by disease and Indian attacks, set sail for Spain the next month and announced their dis coveries to the Crown the follow ing year.
 War, playing hob with the post age of Ethiopia, will result in a postage series soon to be released honoring the recrowning of En- peror Halle Selassie. Expected de- signs are of Addis Ababa scenes and interiors and eXteriors of the palace.
 New issues: Perak brought an 8-cent red into use prior to the JapaneSe invasion of the Malay States. Ecuador has issued another national defense fund raising stamp which supplements that issued nearly year ago. The new patriotic stamp, which is obligatory in addition to normal postage, is 20-centavos blue pic- turing a warrior, armed with sword and shield, protecting Ecu- adorian women.

WPB BIG SHOTS

COILS. and gems.
BY HENRY ION

WASHINGTON.-( FP) - Since the
outbreak of war in 1899 labor organ
izations have been fighting for ade-
quate representation in the councils
of the nation.
The fight started when the Natl.
Defense Advisory Commission was
formed. The pressure was sufficient
to result in the abolition of the NDAC
and the formation of the OPM with
William S. Knudsen and Sidney Hill
man in joint command.
Even the OPM did not accord labor
La place commensurate with its respon-
sibilities and duties on the production
line and, in time, the OPM, too,
passed.
When the present war production
board was established, one of the first
moves was the creation of labor-in-
dustry councils in plants manufactur-
ing war goods. 1t was followed later
with the appointment as head of the
labor division of person picked by
the two major labor organizations.
Now, as labor representation in the
WPB continues to grow, the major
functions of the WPB are beginning
to move away to.the War department.
WPB officials in charge Of procure
ment and purchases are blossoming
into uniforms with coloneps eagles or
majors leaves on their shoulders.
Welcoming them there is their old
friend, Lieut.-Gen. William S. Knud-
sen.
The shift has been slow rather than
sudden as was the case of the shift
from NDAC to OPM and from OPM
to WPB. A few people at time and
a few functions at time have moved
from the WPB to the War depart
ment until today virtually all author

contain hundreds of cases of such
workers, which include such low-paid
employees as watchmen and janitors,
who, upon receiving back pay in
which their employers settle accounts
extending over periods of many
months, have invested as much as so
per cent of such restitution in bonds
and stamps.
This whole-hearted participation by
labor in the essential task of financ-
ing the war effort is all the more re-
markable in the face of the personal
hardships that many workers are I'M
dergoing today. For, despite the fact
that increased production is resulting
in increased work opportunities, the
fact that many workers in non-war
production are being laid off to enable
conservation of war materials is caus-
ing personal hardships in virtually
every section of the nation.
OF course, war production is ex-
pected eventually to absorb these laid
off workers, but the task of changing
over from consumer goods production
to the production of war goods can
not be accomplished overnight. For
instance, it is expected that workers

| ity regarding purchases and procure
ment are now lodged there or with
the Army and Navy Munitions Board.
Among those who have recently
transferred are Douglas MacKeachie,
formerly director of purchases, A. j.
Browning, formerly deputy director
of purchases, William H. Harrison, d.
rector OF the WPB production divi-
sion, Wayne R. Allen, formerly on
the governmental requirements COM
mittee, Edwin R. Dibrell, of the pur-
chases division, John Morrow Jr., and
Edward Sawyer, formerly of the pur-
chases division.
All are now colonies. Walter c..
Shorter, formerly chief of the con-
tainers branch in the WPB, is ma
jor.
1t is not labor alone that views
with some concern the transfer of
authority from WPB to the Army.
Sen. Harry Truman d., Mo-. head
of the senate's committee investigat-
ing the program, declares that, 81 re-
gard it as no less than a struggle to
retain our form of government. If
the military takes over, congress
might as well shut up and go home"
Truman contended that the sums
now being returned to the U. S. treas
ury through renegotiation of con-
tracts, which is expected to total over
$1,000, 100000, were the result of
probes and pressure by congressional
committees and the WPB.
1t is one thing for groups to exert
pressure on congress and the WPB
and quite another to apply pressure
to the Army which, necessarily, lives
by its own rules.
1t is reported that between Donald
Nelson, head of the WPB. and Under
secretary of War Robert P. Patterson
there is an agreement as to the re-
lationship between the WPB, the War
department and the Army and Navy
Munitions Board. But the agreement
is theoretical rather than operative,
it is stated.
Control of procurement and pur-
chasing these days is close to control
over the nations entire economy for
virtually all the large purchases are
made by the Army or on behalf of
the Army.
From labor's point of view, labor is
hopelessly outclassed when dollar-a-
year men are able to hide behind the
skirts of the War department. Labor
officials may be named to posts in
the WPB but at the moment there is
no sign that any labor official is
going to be a lieutenant-general or
even a colonel.

EXCHANGE
DEVELOPS
WEEvIL CURE

The past two years, because Of the
abundance of moisture and high hum
idity, the northwest farmers have
been bothered considerably with wee
wills in their grain. Many thousands
of dollars has been lost because this
weevily grain was not taken care Of
and treated with a good fumigant
before sending it to market. If this
had been done, the weevils would
have been destroyed and the grain
would not have been discounted as
weevily grain when sold.
The fumigation of grain on the farm
and in the country elevator will very
soon be liable to become compulsory.
The past months have seen increasing
activity on the part of the Food and
Drug Administration in connection
with flour that has become infested
or contaminated by insects. 1t has
been agreed that the miller cannot
be blamed for such conditions after
the flour leaves his mill as in most
cases, when traced down, it is found
that the elevator or flour bin has been
weevily and the new flour became
infested from that source.
Farmers Union Weevil Doom" is
the result of considerable study and
experimentation with many fumigat-
ing materials. 1t is a heavy, color
less, non-inflammable and entirely
volatile liquid 1t is safe, inexpensive
and effective material which is easy
to apply to grains for the control of
the Lesser Grain Borer (Rhizopertha
Dominica FL, the Grainary Weevil
(Sitophilus Granarius), and the Rice
Weevil (Sitophilus Oryzae). No
harmful residue remains after evapor-
alton and even its strong and pene-
trating odor does not remain after
aeration.
Records this season have shown
that grain being shipped into the ter
minal markets has been averaging
from 10 to 1870 weevily. Think of
the tremendous discounts our north
west farmers are taking on their
grain. This would not be necessary
if the grain was treated properly
with Farmers Union Weevil Doom"
before shipping.
Farmers Union Weevil Doom" is
easy to apply. The rate of applica-
ton that is recommended for con-
crete storage is " to 2 gallons per
1000 bushels of grain. In small stor-
age units of 400 to 500 bushel capa-
CITY, 21a gallons are recommended
An exposure period of "a to As hours
to the vapors of the fumigant at grain
temperatures of TO- F. to 90 F. favor
wecxA destruction.
Farmers Union Weevil Doom" is
prepared and distributed by the Farm
ers Union Central Exchange and is
available at local cooperative oil and
elevator companies.
