"Little is involved in the pro gram except further planning, talk, conferences and coordinating committees," Russell said. Taking an opposite view, Rep. Hope of Kansas, senior Republican member of the House Agriculture Committee, said that "what de lights me ... is that something is going to be done right away.' In general, Eisenhower urged 30-million-dollar program of loam to low income farmers plus ex panded programs of research, soil conservation, extension services and the like. Sen. Aiken of Vermont, senior Republican on the Senate Agricul ture Committee, said much of the new program could be put into op eration without new legislation. "Of course we've had poor farm ers for a thousand years and this is not going to solve that prob lem, Aiken said, it snouia, how ever, help many families now hav ing difficulties." Sen. Morse (D-Ore) said the "timing of the (Eisenhower) mes sage underlines how phoney the proposals are." Morse, said the special message was not' sent to Congress until the day after the Senate passed the annual agriculture appropriation bill. Now, he said, the new pro posals "must go through the time consuming process" of another bill "with new hearings and new floor consideration." Morse said the proposals "are inadequate," and he added: "They are principally watered down versions of the policies and measures pursued and advocated by Democrats which the adminis tration has been undercutting since January 1932."

Neely (D-WVa) said Thursday he will demand a Senate vote on his move to attach a curb on oil imports to President Eisenhower's foreign trade program. Debate on the bill is scheduled to start next' Monday. Neely de clined to predict the outcome but declared, "If I can get a rollcall, I'll make a better showing than I apparently did in the Finance Committee." However, two members of that committee, Sens. George (D-Ga) and Bennett (R-Utah) said in sep arate interviews they art sure the Senate will defeat any amend ments giving relief to specific com modities. The Finance Committee ap proved the trade bill Tuesday with out any changes considered crip- pung oy the administration. The measure, already passed by the House, would extend the reciprocal trade agreements law three years and give the President new power to cut tariffs 15 per cent.

THE CALIFORNIA OREGON POWER COMPANY A Western Company owned and operated by Western People ti, vft.iiiiiiiiiti ii)iy.i,ri i,li' r,r.ini j Unless we miss our guess, a lot of sur prised people are going to do some new back-of-an-envelope arithmetic when they see the Buick price shown here. Because we know that many folks still don't realize how little a Buick really costs that the new transportation charges to the West have lowered the price even more and that the dollar difference between this big Buick Special and the leading smaller cars has now virtually disappeared. Buick SaleiAre Soaring Ai Never Belore But more and more of them are rinding it out. And that's a major reason why Buick production and Buick sales are soaring to all-time highs today and why Buick again is outselling all other cars, except two of the well-known smaller cars. Big reason, too, for this soaring popularity is Buick's full line of automobiles, giving you a choice in any price class the rock'bottom priced Special, the high-powered Century, the supremely spacious Super, and the custom-built Roaumaster. But above all, more and more people are . discovering that the price you pay for a Buick buys more sheer automobile than the lame money buys elsewhere. More advanced styling, more deep-down ' comfort, more pure power thrill, more ride steadiness and handling ease and solidity of structure. More spectacular performance, too, troin the modest extra cost of Buick's automatic transmission. For here you get Variable Pitch Dynaflowf the new wonder drive born of modern aeronautics to give you instant full-power getaway and acceleration when needed and far better gas mileage when cruising. Why not come see us this week, for sure? We'll be happy to have you test-pilot a new Buick, just for the sheer thrill of it and show you quite clearly that if you can afford any new car, you can afford a Buick. iDfnifoui Drin ii lUnJttd on RotJmdinr, optuMsl a ntiM ntt on olbtr Strut.
