Increased planting of small seed crops was recommended
by Professor G. It. Hyslop of Oregon State college yesterday

Speaking: before grange officials from Marion, Polk,
uao, Lane, uiatsop, Columbia,,
Beaton, Yaahill. Clackamas, Lin
coln, Multaomah and -Tillamook
eountles, Hyslop. saggasted great
er acreage Of orchard grass,
chewing fescue, creeplag red fes
cue and retch. That thero Is a dis
tinct need of publicising that Ore
gon is a first rate grower of the
fesene grasses was attested to by
tho fact that eastera statei were
of the opinion that' the fescues
came only from New Zealand;
and thought that, now that that
country Is engaged la, war, that
there weald be distinct shortage
of the grass seeds. It should bo
tho function of tho Oranges, aald
Hyslop, to see that Oregon gets
the proper publicity for this spec
ialty crop.
Production of retch eoald be
increased five time tho amount
of tho 1949 prodnctloa. which was
29 million pounds for Oregon,
providing the government con
tinned its grant of aid to farmers
of tho eoath. Hyalop announced.
Austrian field pea production
reached Its limit tor Oregon Jo
1940 with a prodnctloa of 4$ mil
lion pounds, Hyslop aald.
Morton Tompkins, Dayton, state
grange agricultural committee
chairman, was la eharge of the
meeting. Delegate called oa for
reports by Chairman Tompkins
were Henry Conger, if edford, who
talked oa agricultural commit
tee conferences: Verne T. Live
say, Portland, who, led a discus
sion oa cooperative buying and
selling; Ralph Beck, extension
specialist, from OSC, who led tie
discussion on land use and plant
ing; W. L. Baker of Canary and
Claude Hanscom of Pendleton,
who conducted a general discus
sion on the agricultural outlook
and Rslph Beck, extension spe
cialist of OSC, who said that the
number one land problem for Ore
gon was the use of cut-over land.
So far such land Is profitable for
only two thinga. Beck said, grass
es for grazing or the growing of
t rees.

tion and resources than those of
me united States. No generosity
could be expected of a "dictator's
peace." he continued, and an at
tack on the Americas was to be
expected If the dictators won.
and to speak of Immunity from
such an attack was "loos talk."
"As long a the aggressor na
tions maintain the offensive." he
said, "they not we will choose
the time and place and the meth
od jof their attack.
'tThat is why the future of all
American republics is today In
serious danger."
No Disagreement

Quickly, then, he swung Into an
enunciation of three basic points
of 1'national policy":
MFirst. bv an Imnruiir.
slon of the public will aaduwlth-
wuij ictnu iu jib usananip, we are
committed to all-inclusive na
tional defense.
''.Second, by an impressive ex
pression of the public will and
without regard to partisanship,
we; are committed to full support
of those resolute peoples, every
where, who are- resisting aggres
sion and are thereby keeping war
away from our hemisphere.
"Third, by an impressive ex
pression of the public will and
without regard to partisanship,
we are committed to the propo
sition that principles of morality
and considerations for our own
security will never permit us to
acquiesce in a peace dictated by
aggressors and sponsored by ap
peasers. We know that enduring
peace cannot be bought at the
cost of other people's freedom."
Defense production hsd shown
much encouraging progress, he
said, but he and his aides were
still dissatisfied.
"The men In charge of the pro
gram represent the best la train
ing, ability and patriotism," ha
said. "They are not satisfied with
the progress thas fsr made. None
of us will be satisfied until the
Job Is done."
Soekiag to Catch

As ho said this. William S.
Kaudsen, general motors maa bor
rowed to take charge of defense
production, slowly nodded his
head, and then Joined in the ap
plause which swept the chamber.
The president said tho aatioa
was behind schedule on airplane
production, aad tho effort waa to
catch np; ahead of ached ale oa
warship production, and working
to get oven farther ahead.'
Asserting that tho t)me may be
near when Great Britain and her
allies are unable to pay la cash
for! their war purchases hero, the
president said that the Ualted
States cannot "tell them they
