Own? Av. Ph. J-62 er 24431 Warden Says Prison Within Food Budget Oregon State Penitentiary, un der fire from the state department of finance because of -high costs of feeding prisoners and guards, stayed within its food budget for the month of August, Warden Virgil J. CMalley said Monday. An emergency board appropria tion last month provided $18,000 a month for food through the, end of the biennium, June 1953. O' Malley said costs for August were suBstantially under that figure but did not report the exact amount. CMalley, who said he had re cently been, given full control-of the food problem at- the prison, announced several changes in operation of the commissary and in distribution of food and sup plies for the various kitchens. Employment of William O. Jones, veteran of 21 years service in the Navy including time as a chief commissary steward, to serve as food manager, was announced by O'Malley. He also reported the hiring of Orville Schultz as store keeper, taking responsibility for commissary supplies from Inmate hands. O'Malley said management of the prison commissary could be blamed y for much of the rising cost since March, 1951, when the legislature advised a better diet for inmates. He said that no records were kept of food issued until he took over control on board of con trol orders in mid-August. Funds to hire five more civilian cooks -for relief and supervisory work in prison kitchens will be requested of the legislature at the next session, O'Malley indicated. At present only two are provided, which means supervision neces sarily falls to inmates part of the time, he said. Two Circuit Court Guilty Pleas Entered Two pleas of guilty were en tered Monday in Marion County Circuit Court Edward C. Oliver, 1755 Barnes Rd., waived grand jury indict ment and pleaded guilty to bur glary not in- a dwelling, involving a Stayton gun shop a week ago, and is to be sentenced Wednes day. 1 Kathryn M. Cross, 332 Bellevue St, pleaded guilty to forgery, aft er waiving indictment, and was continued for pre-sentence investi gation. The county was concerned with a $20 check passed in July at a Salem store. James Quentin Anderson, al ready serving a State Penitentiary sentence, - pleaded innocent to a charge of assaulting a guard there last July 30. Earlier in the day he had waived preliminary hear ing in District Court, then waived grand jury indictment Trial date is to be set on the charge, involv ing the alleged knifing of Guard James E. Schultz. f The probation granted Jerry Lewin, Stayton, last Dec. 3 on a charge of threatening commission of a felony, was revoked, and he was returned to the county jail to serve a six-months sentence.

MADSEN T Farm Editor, The Statesman j ' In a final effort to meet the stalemated price situation facing the Willamette Valley hop growers, a special meeting has been called for Tuesday night for the city hall at, Mt Angel j at 8 pjn. All hop growers interested in the situation are invited to attend, reports Har vey Gehring, spokesman for thee Oregon Hop Growers Committee, whose membership is arranging the event " , ; Mam objective or trie gathering is to complete application for sup port prices based on 75 per cent of parity. This amount would be 51 cents for seeded hops and 61 cents for the seedless variety. Growers who attend the Tuesday night meeting will have an oppor tunity ; to sign the applications there. Particularly are growers with unsold 1952 hops ureged to at tend the meeting. Marshall Swear ingen, Salem, president of the Ore gon Farm Bureau, has agreed to be present to explain the details of the proposed support program. A brief which was prepared and which went to Secretary of Agri culture T Charles F. Brannan, ex plained that the hop growers do not wish to withdraw from the marketing agreement Amount Set The salable quantity of the total 1952 hop production for the United States has been set at 39,200,000 pounds which is approximately 65 per cent of the expected produc tion. It is the usual custom for majority of the growers to con tract their hops before the hops are harvested. On the basis of these contracts the growers are able to arrange for financing the harvesting which is one of the large production costs. At the pres ent time approximately - 40 per cent of the 1952 salable allotment has not been sold and there is no market As a result the growers are finding it difficult to finance Woman Convict Gets Hearing A habeas corpus proceedings here Monday will result in either a hearing or freedom for Helen Smith, State Penitentiary prisoner from'Linn County. ' The warden was instructed by Marion County Circuit Court to release her' to the Linn district attorney, if custody is taken by 10 ajn. Friday, or to grant her freedom if custody is not accepted or if there are no "holds ' placed by other counties. The court upheld the Smith woman's contention that revoca tion of her suspended sentence by Linn County Circuit Court, with out granting her a hearing, was void. However, it held that the hearing may be conducted now, with the possible result of a re turn to the prison. The prisoner pleaded guilty Aug. 10, 1951, to issuing a check without sufficient funds and was sentenced to two years in the penitentiary, to be suspended upon making restitution and that she "deport herself as a law abiding citizen. Her writing of a $1,500 NSF check later in Idaho led the Linn court to revoke the . suspen sion last Feb. 27. Linn County 7ea st you ride on Union Pacific.

S. Hop Growers, the Oregon Farm Bureau the state Grange officials, the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture, Fruits and Vegetables division. ' Meeting with them was Richard Moeller of Cornelius, president of the Oregon State Farmers Union, wno introduced them by telephone, to James Patton national FU pres- dent in Denver.- In the ensuing conversation, Patton promised his support to the degree that he would confer, by telephone with Secretary Brannan Tuesday, which the hop committee men, too, will talk . with Brannan by telephone and will be ready to report this conversation at the Tuesday; night Mt Angel meeting. Hop picking Is about two weeks later than a year ago, and picking in the late yards is just getting underway. A number of growers are expressing uncertainty as to whether or not they will harvest their crop. The market said Gehring, caught the hop growers unaware this year. But we are much more hopeful now than at anytime in recent weeks." I ;. ' fXl2t$ pcsAtttn Break 'AIR ts CMSvmers .

TIEASURT OFFICI San fnmicm Established 1932 FillR tew On NoTember 4 the people of Oregon will vote oo a measure that will give our state FAIR milk law fair to consumers and producers alike. It will replace the present milk control law which was written by special milk interests for their own benefit Un der present law it is unlawful to sell milk below prices fixed by the Milk Controller. The new law will eliminate all price fixing above the farm level. The measure will appear on your ballot as "Milk Production and Marketing Acr' Number 332 YES. Here's what this fair milk law will do LOWER MILK PRICES FOR CONSUMERS 132 YES will permit lower retail prices to consumers. It will restore competition. Con sumers will get the benefit of mod cm mrthodi and economic! in distributing milk. . Lower cost, cash-and-carry store distribu-. rloo is one example. Store prices are lower in 91 percent of U.S. cities the size of Portland or larger. But in Oregon the Milk Controller forces you to pay the same prices that are charged for credit and home delivery. It will repeal Oregon's present Milk Con trol Law which fixes the lowest retail prices at which milk may be jsold. No one may legally sell for less. Thus the new milk law will stop monopoly by repealing a law which has primarily - benefitted and protected certain middlemen. ' RICHER, MORE HEALTHFUL MILK 332 YES will permit richer milk to be sold, thus assuring more healthful milk for chil- -dren and, better value for the money you spend for milk. . . It wiH kill present restrictions on the maxi mum amount of butterfat in standard mil Id These restrictions on richness are another way that the Milk Controller now eliminates competition and protects the middleman. - GUARANTEED FAIR PRICES FOR DAIRY FARMERS 332 YES will assure the dairy fanner of s minimum fair price which will be set after public bearings. This, in turn, will assure an adequate supply of milk. . It will allow all dairymen who meet the standards for Grade A rmlk to sell such milk oo the Grade A market. . . -- It will prevent milk from beiflg used as s political football.

" DON'T BE FOOLED Neither the present Milk Control Law nor the proposed Milk Production and Marketing Act regulates sanitation or quality standards.
