Election Measure Cittd He called attention to a measure on the general election baliot this November, titled "War Veterans' Bonding and Loan Amendment" which, if approved by the people, would make 104 million dollars available to the department for vet erans loans. He stated that he was in no way campaigning for the bill, that bis department could operate with or without it. but that approval would go a long way toward relieving Oregon's serious shortage of mort gage money and adding materially to the economy of Oregon. The veterans loan program is en tirely self-sustaining and eosU the taxpayers nothing, said Saalfeld. The fact is, since 1M5 the program has built up a net operating rev enue of $6,801,360 (as of Dec. 31, 1959), after paying all operating expenses, plus the principal and interest on the bonds which made the program possible. Salaries, Costs Included These expenses, he strcjjed. in clude all salaries and costs of the department's loan division; cost of providing services to veterans, will ows and dependents on claims for MARKET TIPS Cold Weather Holds Back Planting, Maturing Crops By LEROY B. INMAN Business Ntw Dtot. Editor The produce market picture went along on a lairly even keel this week, with inclement weather still hampering the development of some crops, and definitely slowing down local area plantings. A limited supply of local straw berries is expected to start ap pearing on the market within the next week or two, weather permit ting. Housewives will have to rely on California growers for most strawberries for a while yet, and these have been hampered by bad weather in that state. The price is still high. Inland perries were rained out and only a comparitive ly small amount is available from the coastal areas. Some other fresh fruits, such as cherries and peaches may make their appearance out of California but as yet the price is too high to pay wholesalers to bring them in. Old potatoes are practically non- existent, except for a few in the i hands of retailers and these are going out fast. New nn'atoes are taking over almost entirely, and the market is declining fast. Sev eral areas in the Bakcrxficld and Kdison areas are now shipping si that supplies exceed demand. Cali fornia red potatoes are also avail able. Turnips and beets from Salinas are reasonably priced and very i Rood. Demand is slow for parsnips. ituiauagas are selling only as long as the weather stays cool. Demand drops to nothing during warmer weather. Yams and sweet potatoes are throuiM for all practical pur poses. A lew remain in the hands of retailers. New California onions are being shipped in in large amounts, and arc so reasonably priced the few remaining Oregon onions are go ing begging for takers. Supplies will have to take a beating on the last of Uicir lot. The lettuce market is strength ening, as demand exceeds supply. Red lettuce, romaine and endive, however, are plentiful and very reasonable.

The depart ment paid off two million dollars in bond principal on that date. "Oregon," said Saalfeld, "is cur rently desperately short of mort gage money from all sources, so mergency does exist, ine i suance of Oregon veterans' loan bonds brings eastern money into the state and thus helps alleviate the shortage, although this pro gram alone cannot solve the prob lem. Last year the program brought in more than 52 million dollars for Oregon veterans farm and home loans, helping the lum ber industry, labor and many other segments of Oregon's economy. "But in 1960. this figure will be down to 21 million dollars because of the shortage of loan funds. And if the War Veterans' Bonding and Loan Amendment fails in the No vember election, only 12 million dollars will be available in 1961. It was announced at the meet ing that John E.

Avoca dos are getting into the hard-sbeil summer fruit. The supply is ex pected to be on the short side, but there also is less demand for the summer varieties. Cabbage remains very good and the demand is good, but the supply is short, bringing th.) price up. Marginal quality cauliflower from Portland and fair quality from the San Francisco Bay area is on. The price is comparatively high. Broccoli and celery, also are in rather short supply and the mark et is lirm. Lie quality is very good. Quite a supply of poor quality small peppers have arrived also from Mexico. The tomato market is casing as the Imperial Valley crop appears to be maturing and the supply in creasing. Some local rhubarb remains and is very good, but wholesalers are having to go to Portland for most of their supply. The Winsnp apple market remains strong. Delicious varieties are practically through. The orange market also contin ues very strong, indicating the Valencia crop is in short supply due to bad weather. Demand i.i picking up on lemons. A shipment of Indian River grapefruit arrived this week from Florida. This is expected to be the last. There is some from Arizona. Texas is through, but Coachilla Valley con tinues to have some very nire fruit. After that, in a few weeks, the supply will bo largely from oili er California areas and the quality is much inferior. Very good quality bananas are arriving from the nest coast of Central America. Hawaiian pineapple specials are again being featured in local su permarkets, along with an assort ment of cocoanuts, papayas and mangoes, following a heavy ship ment of the fruit from the islands this week. The egg market remains un changed. Eggs are reported clear ing very well, there is a small sur plus in the San Francisco area, but wholesalers don't appear wor ied.

The road into the east side camp grounds have been plowed out, making about 200 campsites avail able. However, there is snow in the area and campers should bear that in mind. The three boat land ings in the section are in use. Trailtr Area Limited The trailer court area is only partially open and will accommo date only about 12 to 15 trailers for this weekend. Roads to the sum mer homes are all closed, but own ers may get in by ferrying across the lake. The public boat landing area at the south side of the resort is open. The principal difficulty will be encountered in parking of cars and boat trailers around the land ings. There is very little parking space available near the landings and fishermen may find extreme difficulty from this standpoint. Roads into the lake are all open. Motorists will find about l'i miles of rough road on the North Ompqua new construction.
