By CHARLES V. STANTON When the committee meets to again revise budget figures for the City of Roseburg, following cancellation of the elec tion, which had been scheduled for tomorrow, because of a clerical error in the legal notice given for publication, it is our personal opinion it should restore some of the funds lopped from the original appropriation for the office of city manager. There can be little opportunity for efficient opera tion of the department, nor can the new system be given a fair trial if the allowance is limited to $6,000, as proposed in the revised budget. It is our opinion that the ?12,000 con tained in the original budget was none too much and that at least $10,000 should be considered a minimum. Even though the budget is left at $5,000, as proposed in the revised budget, it will cost approximately $1,000 to buy filing cabinets, ledgers, office furniture, and office supplies, if the department is to be set up efficiently. Money should be furnished for a secretary. The secretary would do clerical work for the recorder-treasurer, police, street and fire de partments and other branches of the city government, as well as aiding in the manager's office. At least $2,000 would be needed for salary, with some additional money for supplies. The city manager should have a substantial sum for travel expense. The department should have at least $1,500 and preferably more for engineering, research and planning. The city man ager will be working in close contact with the newly ap pointed and organized city planning commission. No funds have been set aside to date for planning commission ex penses, yet the commission, if it is to do any work at all, must have numerous maps, field studies, surveys and engi neering plans. These expenses could and should be included in the city manager department. . We realize that many Roseburg residents are not yet "sold" on the city manager program. The charter amend ment setting up the new form of government was approved last fall by only a small majority. A great deal of this oppo sition to the city manager was in evidence in the unfavorable vote given the original city budget. The city manager, however, HAS been authorized. The city council under provisions of the charter amendment has authority to levy up to 2'i mills to finance the department. We do not believe It necessary to impose the maximum levy. However, if we are to have a city manager, let's go into the new program properly. Let's give it a fair trial. Let's have a U. S. Food Exports For Relief Post Mi-Time Record WASHINGTON. July 7 WP President Truman reported Sat urday that U. S. exports of food to the world s hungry set an an time record in the past 12 months, and he promised continued Amer ican aid. He indicated in a statement, however, that future assistance will have to be reduced if corn and other summer-rown grain crops are short, ine corn crop has been plagued by a wet, cool spring and. by destructive floods. The president saia tne united States exported 18,433,000 long tons or about 41,275,000,000 pounds during the year ending June 30. ."This." he said, "is the largest total of food ever shinned from one country in a single year. The old record of 17,122,000 tons was set by the United States a "ear ago. Stilt Short of Needs While callin" attention to the United States contribution to "hu man needs abroad," Mr. Truman said "we must not lose sight of the fact that even the great ef forts of this and other exporting countries fell short of meeting urgent postwar needs for food." "Millions of people are still des perately hungry," he said. With in our abilitv to snare our re sources, we will continue to uo our part to relieve human suf fering and to help other countries to help themselves. The -resident made his state ment in releasing a detailed re port on food extorts by the cabi net committee on world food pro grams. Its members are Secre tary of Agriculture Anderson, Secretary of State Marshall and Secretary of Commerce Harri man. Both Mr. Truman and the com mittee carefullv refrained from making definite exoort commit ments beyond Aurtust. The gov ernment alrend- has made grain expert allocations for July and August calling for shipments at recent high levels. The committee report said it is possible to continue large grain exports during these months be cause of prospects of a record breaking wheat crop. Must Not Lower Crops But this count r". it said, can not exoect to keep up a high level of shipments throughout the entire year if the total of all available grain is substantially city manager, not a glorified errand boy.

EDWARDS Some one has said of the Christ, that in Him was found "Goodness and greatness." It is strange that' we place great ness before goodness. A story is told of the Emepror Napoleon. He went into a library one day to get a book and seemed to sense there was some other person present. He spoke out and said; "Who stands in my presence. A priest, said, "It is a very good man standing i:i the presence of a very great man." The reply greatly pleas the little emperor. All too oft en goodness seems to go un rewarded. When David Living ston died upon his knees, pray ing that God would heal the open sore of Africa, goodness seemed to come into its own. Kind natives took out h i s heart and buried it beneath a tree, and they prepared his body and carried it over seven teen hundred miles to the coast. When the body arrived in England Queen Victoria re quested it might be buried with England's great. Seventy thous and people marched in honor of this good missionary. As the body approached the West minster Abbey. There rang out these words. "Fling open wide the Abbey doors, and bear him in to sleep with kings and statesmen; a missionary born of Weaver kin. He needs no epitaph to guard his name; lot marble crumble. This is David Livingston." Goodness and greatness honored in this inter ment. Amen. -Shopper's Guide, Manruui-wen. 9:55 Musical Interlude, ifwm Alka Seltzer Newi.

As to the error which forced cancellation of the election, residents should not, in our opinion, be too critical. H was a case of "haste makes waste." The committee worked hard in several torrid sessions. The senior city attorney, A. N. Orcutt, was seized with a critical illness. The auditor was revamping school district and city budgets at the same time, as well as helping a number of other districts and munici palities. It is not surprising that a clerical error in the legal notice should escape attention. It is our opinion that the budget committee should seize upon this opportunity to correct another error, that of too excessive cuts in the city manager department.

We once mentioned that prac tically ALL good feed companies have field service men. When you buy feed, you pay for this service. And believe it or not, you pay for it whether the manufacturer of the feed you are using has a field service man or not. That may sound funny, but it is just like needing a piece of machinery and not having it. If you have to do your plowing with a spading fork, a few acres at present wages will buy a plow and tractor. In other words, a field service man can help you in many ways. If you use VMPQUA FEEDS your cost of field service is only a few cents per ton of feed. Can you afford to use a feed with out any field service to save these few cents? Besides, as we said, vou don't save it anyway. Two important questions facing every grower ill prompt ef ficient field service at Ihe low est cost; 1 2) efficient, com pletely balanced, palatable feeds at the lowest cost; -- have the same answer: UMrQUA FEEDS. To Hatching Egg Producers. There will be some changes in the procedure this year. We think every producer should plan' on participating in the Oregon Poultry Improvement Plan. This may be a form of regimentation, but even so, it is still not compulsory. In order to sell hatching eggs to Ihe best advantage, we must produce Ihe kind of eggs that buyers want. The Improvement Plan is really a group of inter ested producers trying to pro duce the very best. If you got in tm the Plan, you will have labels to attach to your eggs or chick boxes, indicating this fact. These labels are the guarantee of quality and freedom of disease to your customer. He will buy nioic freely of Oregon eggs, if he can have this guarantee. and inspection. These lees seem large compared to previous years, it is true. But it is also true that the cost of everything else is higher, and that even in cludes the price you get for eggs. There may be some limited outlets for eggs outside the Im provement plan, but we believe tne grower wno participates win have a much better chance of selling his eggs. It will probably also be impossible to even have your eggs custom-natcnea unless your birds are In the plan. Classified. Good News. We hope your birds don't have blackhead. But if they should get caught, Intesul in the drink ing water has been found by experiment to be beneficial. They'll drink after they quit eating, you know. On That Bum Feed.
