Oregon Farm
Prices Ignore
Upward Trend
. ' By LILLIE U MADSEN
Fan Editor, The Statesman
While national farm product pur
chasing power and farm exports
stepped up in June, Oregon farm
prices continued to lag, according
to agricultural economists' re
leases Friday.
Oregon farm prices are now 4
per cent below a year ago. This
is In contrast to the nearly J'i
per cent Increase chalked up over
the past 11 months In the national
average. Cotton, tobacco and oil-
bearing crops products not grown
in Oregon-Helped lift the U. S
average.
The national average Jumped 3
per cent in prices received by
farmers in June over May, with
no increase in costs. It marked
the first time since lMt that farm
prices have advanced from May
to June. Mostly responsible for the
upturn were the higher prices paid
to farmers for fruits, potatoes, and
commercial vegetables. Some of
this Increase, registered earlier by
Southern states, may show up
later in the summer in Oregon,
economists thought.
At the same time, costs held the
line. Higher price tsgs en some
living items were offset by lower
price for some of the items nsed
in (arm operation.
In the meantime, more and more
farm products are being shipped
abroad. During the 11 months that
ended the first of June, the exports
rose I per cent In value and U
per cent in quantity. By the time
the June export are added In.
total UJi. farm export may reach
a peak that has been topped only
twice in the past at years. ,
Paper Company will sound simul
taneously with siren of the city'
five fir stations.
The "attack" warning, called
'Varnlng lemon juice" among
civil defense agencies, will come
to Salem's keypolnt center in state
police headquarters from McChord
Air Base. From there the warning
will be sent to the county sub
keypoint in the sheriff's office,
then to civil defense directors in
various parts of the county.
Salem's keypoint also serves to
warn Polk, Yamhill. Clackamas,
Washington and Clatsop counties.
This year's test will be a try-out
of the county'i civil defense units
charged with providing care for
evacuee from the Portland criti
cal area. Problems likely to arise
from such an evacuation will be
simulated and solved by the Mass
Care Group, headed by David G.
Holttman. Solution of the prob
lems will Involve communication
with the IS district shelter centers
directors of the county.
To test traffic control facilities,
members of the sheriff's reserve
companies in Wood burn, SUverton,
Salem, Stayton and Jefferson will
man key traffic control posts on
the five evacuation routes from
Portlsnd that pass through Marion
County,

Modification
Of Bonneville
Locks Urged
PORTLAND (i -r A suggestion
that Bonneville Dam's navigation
lock should be modified, or new
ones built to meet increasing river
traffic was voiced by Army En
gineer Friday at the fifth and
last hearing on water resources
development of the Columbia Riv
er Basin.
Col. Jackson Graham made the
statement at a gathering of more
than 100 witnesses at the hearing.
His views were amplified by A.
L. Henny, also of the Portland
District Army Engineers, who
said that after John Day Dam Is
completed, barge tows on the riv
er will be' so heavy that Bonne
ville Locks will be unable to pass
the traffic efficiently.
At other hearings, prooosals to
standardize locks in the Columbia
River have been advanced.
Henny said modification or new
locks nt Bonneville would not
hamper power operations, but it
would require the Union Pacific
Railroad to relocate its tracks and
also affect the Tanner Creek
fish hatchery.
The Engineers also discussed
plana to increase power genera
tion at Bonneville.
Increasing power generating fa
cilities. Henny said, would require
relocation of the highway on the
Washington side and moving a
large part of the town' of North
Bonneville.
David C. Dunan. president of
the Portland Chamber of Com
merce, urged a speedup of devel
opment of the Willamette Valley
and the basin area because of an
ticipated increase in population
and aa a mean of meeting a
huvy demand for new sources of
electric energy.

NEW YORK Ifl For the sec
ond time since publication of the
great Soviet Encylopedia began,
subscribers nave been told to
take a cutting tool In hand and
get lid of couple of pages of
information, the New York Time
reported Thursday.
The latest object of poat publl
estion editing. The Times said, is
Kao Kang, a top Chinese Commu
nist said to have committed sui
cide two years ago.
The Soviet Encyclopedia began
to appear, volume by volume,
five year ago. About 40 of an ex
pected total of SO volume have
so far been published. -
The Times account, by former
Moscow correspondent Harrison
E. Salisbury, said:
The 100.000 subscribers to the
Kneyeloperil did their first "do
it yourself" correcting after Lav
renty P. Beria, Soviet secret po
lice chief, wa executed in De
rember, 1953. Substitute pages
containing aa expanded article
m the Bering Sea were sent out
io be pasted in place of Beria'
biography.
Subscriber now have received
i mailed notice saying the "State
Scientific Publishing House of
i he Greet Soviet Encyclopedia
recommend the removal from
v-olume 10 of Page 213-214, in
tead of which you are being sent
pages with a new text."
The page cited described Kao
as a lesding member of the Chi
nese Communist party and gave
biographical details previously
circulated by official Red publi
cations. The biographies! purge of Kao
revived speculation, Salisbury
said, whether he might have been
n key figure In the reported ri
valry between Stalin and Man
Tie-Tung, leader -of Communist
China. As a psrty leader in Man
churia, Kao was In close contact
with Soviet authorities.
The Pelplng regime denounced
Kso snd Jao Shu-Shih, another
Chinese ' party leader. In April
1039 for "conspiratorial activi
ties." An announcement said
they were exposed at a plenary
party session In February 1954,
after which Kae "committed sui
cide." To replace the Kao biography,
subscribers were sent a page con
taining n 12-line article and a
photo of Gysngtse, third largest
town In Tibet
The Times said the apparent
eagerness of the Encyclopedia's
editors to fill the gsp csused
them te overlook the fact that
the town, under (lightly differ
ent spelling, already was des
cribed in Volume 13.
