New Farm Bill
Gets Signature
Of Pres. Truman
Washington, Nov. 1 1Pi Presi
dent Truman late Monday signed
farm bill which guarantees
farmers continued high price sup
. porta on major field crops and
may mean lower-priced eggs for
consumers.
The new law, which becomes
effective Jan. 1, replaces the so
called Aiken flexible price sup
port law which also was to have
become effective on that date.
For farmers, the new law
guarantees at least one more
year of record high peacetime
supports of 90 per cent of parity
on major field crops wheat,
corn, cotton, rice, tobacco and
peanuts. Rice and tobacco actual
ly would have price supports
boosted next year. Wool also is
guaranteed supports at or above
present levels.
After next year, there would
be only a gradual tapering off
of supports on the six basic
crops, although the secretary of
agriculture would have discretion
to continue them at a high level
indefinitely. By 1954, supports for
some but not all of the so-called
basic crops would be permitted
theoretically to drop a little more
than one-sixth below the pres
ent level.
Eggs May Be Lower
For consumers, the new law
may result in lower egg prices
and possibly lower pork prices.
The law permits the secretary
of agriculture to reduce or abol
ish price supports on eggs and
hogs.
The agriculture department has
Indicated that egg supports will
be cut from their present high
level after Jan. 1. The govern
. ment has indicated that present
high supports on hogs will be
continued through next March,
but there has been no decision
on what will be done after then.
Mandatory supports for milk
and butter fats also are continu
ed under the new law, with the
secretary of agriculture having
discretion to raise or lower them.
There is no indication that there
will be any change.
The new law adds mohair, hon
ey and tung nuts to the list of
products getting mandatory price
supports.
The measure signed into law
represents a compromise worked
out in the closing days of the
first session of the 81st congress.
It marks the second time in two
years that congress has written
a "permanent" farm law to make
price , supports flexible within
certain ranges.

Ghosts, Goblins
March for Prizes
In Redmond. Event
By Virginia l-ce Hallook
Redmond, Nov. I The Red
mond high school band led the
hobgoblins' trek down -Redmond's
main street last niRht In the
American Legion-sponsored Nee
wollah parade. Costumed kids,
little and big, ugly and beauti
ful, funny and horrible, pranced,
strutted and galloped for the
benefit of the throngs of spec
tators who lined the streets. Jour
ney's end was the high school
gymnasium where prizes were
awarded and refreshments were
handed out to the weary and ex
cited youngsters.
Judges for the affair were Mrs.
L. W. Franks and Mrs. Wesley
McDowell of Redmond, and Mrs.
Neva McCaffery of Powell Butte.
After a process of elimination,
the judges handed top honoin to
pint-size Jackie Wells and Kalh
ryn Roberts. Jackie, son of Dr.
and Mrs. IL W. Wells, was a gay
and gallant caballero, and Kath
ryn, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
M. F. Roberts, was his Spanish
senorita. First prize was S3.
Linda and Earleen Arensmeier,
in Dutch costumes complete with
wooden shoes, clomped off with
second prize of SI. These young
ladies are the daughters of Mr.
and Mrs. Earl Arensmeier. Paula
Morton and Ronald Conley. at
tired in colonial costume, were
awarded third prize, and fourth
prize went to Peggy Hatfield and
Wayne Volk. a Persian sheik and
his lady, who seemed to have
stepped right out of the pages of
Arabian Nights.
Ten 50-cent prizes were handed
out, 40 25-cent prizes and 100
nickels were distributed. Other
costumes which drew comments
from the judges and the audience
were: A mechanical man. Carmen
Miranda, the seven dwarfs, a pair
of realistic frogs, Little Bo-Peep,
Little' Red Riding Hood, a pump
kin man and a Negro mammy.
Other costumes ran the gamut
from glamour gals to horrendous
creatures. The youngsters seem
ed to be intrigued with them
selves and each other, and the
members of the legion and the
auxiliary happily and wearily ad
mitted that the affair appeared
to be a success.

the court Ir-cuusc a compassion
ate judge thinks she "is entitled
to a normal home life."
Superior Judge A. T. Shine an

made the Huyward, Calif., teen
ager a ward of the court and
placed her In the custody of
Mrs. William Narsh. Mrs.
Narsh Is the widow of the dead

Shine said that "it would serve
no useful purpose to confine this
girl to an institution. She is en
titled to a normal home life."
The girl was taken Into custody
Oct. 19 after she fatally stabbed
her mother following an argu
ment over her high school boy
friend.
Scores of friends, neighbors
and relatives rushed to the girl's
defense, declaring that the
mother, Mrs. Celeste Morrow. 41.

daughter's life miserable. The
girl's father, a merchant marine
englneei, is enroute home from

Shine said that the taking of
life is a serious thing, not to be
looked upon lightly, but that the
girl "is not yet aware of the ex
tent of her act."
"The court wishes to do what
is fair. Just and proper," he said.
"I will take full responsibility
for my decision."
