Tuesw Dec 15, 1953 1 s. census oei For Annexed Price Support DebateHeldby Farm Bureau By OVID MARTIN CHICAGO ( Advocates of present high level farm price sup ports made themselves heard Monday at an American Farm Bureau Federation convention ap parently headed for endorsement of a flexible system of price floors. A meeting throwr. open to speeches by bureau members drew a top heavy majority for -continu ation of the present program, at least for cotton, tobacco and pea nuts. Most of those heard were from Southern states where these crops are srown. Meanwhile. Allan B. Kline, fed eration president who is complet ing his third four-year term, told a news conference he will stay on the job if delegates desire. Health Improves Kline. 58-year-old corn-hog farm er. said his doctor had urged him earlier this year to take things easier but that his health has im proved since then. Farm leaders expect no opposition to Kline. More than two dozen Southern farmers who came to the conven tion, not as delegates but as ob servers, took the floor to plead for extension of the present pro gram. - ' A much smaller number, largely from Northern and Midwestern states, spoke up for the flexible plan backed in recent years by the American federation. Clashes With Truman Kline's expiring term was mark ed by clashes with the Truman administration ever federal farm policies. Meanwhile, the bureau's resolu tions committee worked on a poll cy statement re-affirming the or ganization's endorsement of a sys tem of flexible price supports as opposed to the present program of rigid, 90 per cent of parity price floors. The flexible plan embodied in the Farm Act of 1949 and designed to go into effect in 1935 unless Ike Misses Huge Gridiron Club Reception WASHINGTON I President Eisenhower stayed home in the White House with Mrs. Eisenhow er, who is still suffering from a cold, and missed the Gridiron Gub's huge reception Sunday. ThePresident attended Saturday night's dinner put on by the 68 year old Gridiron Club during which its noted news correspond ents members joshed his admini stration and the great and near great of politics. Because the club's traditional dinners are limited to men only. club members reenacted some of the skits at a reception for the benefit of victims, other guests and their women folk. The reception, at which there was hardly elbow space, was a curtain raiser for two newcomers to the capital the new chief jus tice. Earl Warren, and his wife. The Warrens, in the absence of the Eisenhowers, were ranking guests at the reception. It' was Mrs. Warren's first appearance with her husband at a major social event here since her recent arrival from California. Also present were Atty. Gen. Brownell and Mrs. Brownell, Sec retary of Interior McKay and Mrs. McKay. WRONG STEER IS TRAGIC TOLEDO, Ohio iJP- A steer scratched its back against a utili ty pole in the yards of the Pro ducers Livestock Cooperative Assn. with these results: The pole swayed, a circuit was short ed, and an area of 15 square miles was blacked out for about 35 minutes, during which a dark ened traffic light led to an auto mobile accident injuring five persons. Salem Areas The secretary of state's office will take a cencus of four small areas which have been annexed to Salem since the 1950 U. S. census. The state census was requested by the Salem City Council so that the increased population could be credited officially to Salem in connection with state apportion ment of highway and liquor revenues earmarked for cities. These apportionments last year averaged about $7.15 per'capita to the cities. City Recorder Alfred Mundt said Monday that the four an nexed areas had a total of 173 registered voters at the time of the annexation elections. The current census would reflect total population, whether or not eligi ble to vote, including those who have located in the areas since. The new districts are the Edina Lane area near Center Street and east city limits; Eastmoreland addition; Watkins Addition near Orchard Heights Road in West Salem; Northgate Addition on the Pacific Highway in North Salem. Norman Frees will supervise the state census, assisted by Mrs. Frank Morse and Mrs. Robert E. Pattison. Secretary of State Earl T. Newbry has asked the coopera tion of people in the areas so the census can be completed this week. Last Missing Stockholder Found Here The last of four "missing stock holders" was located in Salem by ; The Statesman Monday. Four Salem names were on a list of 100,000 lost stockholders for whom an Eastern tracing com pany is conducting a search. The names were reported to be of those whose mail couldn't be de livered because last known ad dress was insufficient. One of the four was Mrs. Delia V. Martin, listed under an old address, 1205 Columbia St After the Statesman article appeared Monday morning, friends of the woman called to say she now lives in a rest home at 3845 D St. Her business mail is handled by a soh, Carl P. Martin, Brooks Route 1, Box 78F, who is conserv ator of her estate. The others who were informed by The Statesman of the "search" which might mean unexpected dividend checks or other stock interests, are Mrs. Mary Cole Vinyard, Emmett Welling and Mrs. Annie C.

(JP A big fire destroyed many new auto mobiles, which was bad enough. But what really brought grief to Darrold Huffaker was the de struction of three ancient cars. Huffaker, a collector of old vehicles, mourned the loss of two Fords vintage 1914 and 1926 and a Dorris of 1913. In 1900 in Mexico, 2 per cent of the people owned 70 per cent of the land.
