J I X fa 16 The Newi-Review, Roseburg, 0r. Tue., Juno 14, 1949 CYA Endorsed By Oregon Grange Chief; Federal Farm Program Partially Okayed ' COOS BAY, June 14 UP) Morton Tompkins- sounded the keynote ' ol the annual State Grange Convention today by strongly endorsing the proposed Columbia Valley administration. State grange master since 1942, Tompkins urged the 700 delegates at the opening session of the con vention to become "educators and apostles for CVA.", Tompkins" opening speech ranged over a wide variety of sub jects, but mostly he dwelt on CVA, which, he called a "home rule agency" and a "co-ordinated river program under a single agency." He asserted that "CVA would mean a little bit of Washington, D. G. would be moved to the Northwest and our development would be guided by the people liv ing In the region." Tompkins gave approval of a sort to the government's farm pro gram. Of the Aiken farm bill, passed in the. 80th Congress to go into effect next year, and the Bran nan farm proposal he said, how ever, that ''to me at least none of them provide the" ultimate an swer to the problem." I They have the common fault, he conunuea, oi noi providing "some protection for all food and fiber crops." Tornpkins endorsed the flexible price support of the Aiken bill, saying the alternative was "acre age controls andor ' marketing quotas, which to me seems to be regimentation of the severest sort." ... i He said the Brannan proposal had "considerable merit, and its change in the parity base was close to the 1948 recommendation of the National Grange. . Legislators Scored Tompkins lashed at state legis lators who voted to amend Initia tive and referendum procedures in the last state assembly. He said those who voted to amend "were betraying their people," and pro posed that their names be printed in the Grange Bulletin just prior to the next elections. The Grange master urged again the repeal of an Oregon law that he said "invites large retail cor porations to set up dummy cor porations to which they transfer title to their store buildings . . .

Price FINE JEWEtRV .18.40 Resolution To Truman Demands Expense Slash WASHINGTON, June 14.-,P A resolution directing President Truman to trim 5 to 10 per cent off funds voted by Congress for executive agencies was approved Monday by the Senate Expendi tures Committee. Chairman McClellan (D.-Ark.) said the committee voted 8 to 2 for the resolution and added he will introduce It immediately. He estimated that approval of the resolution by Congress and the President would mean sav ings of $2,000,000,000 to $4,000, 000,000 in federal expenditures in the fiscal year starting July 1. McClellan said he hoped that it would make possible a balanced budget without new taxes but added that would depend on how federal tax receipts hold up. The committee acted in the midst of a quarrel between Presi dent Truman and the Senate Ap propriations Committee over slashing European recovery funds.
