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

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. Radishes and green on

area and The Dalles are also plen-

Assets Cain
Contrary to reports that the de
partment has increased state in
debtedness. Department assets
150 million dollars. 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.

tiful. but the California crop is by
far the better at this time. 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

well as the boat landings, in that
area.
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

for this weekend. Roads to the sum

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

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
