More Birds Than Cages In Pnneville PRINEV1LLE Birds, in every shade of yellow, green and blue, are presenting assorted problems to Prineville residents these days. At a recent opening, a local mer chant offered parakeets at a dol lar apiece and sold 600 birds in two days, or approximately one feathered friend to every four homes. The supply of cages was short however, dui to a misplaced ship ment and many took their pets home in shoeboxes or pockets. The result a number of escaped birds, and many homes where late do livery on cages finds families with aecommodatins for a bird, but no bird. Among those who still have their birds, .conversation centers on one big question; how do you teach the critters to talk? A plenum! supply of extra bird seed on the floor is noted by pa tient mothers whos children have taken over the household care and training of a parakeet. Some homes are also suffer! nj from smashed lamps and dangling draperies as a result of a family- scale effort to capture an elusive parakeet flying from perch perch and room to room.

The committee said the commis sion's recommendations for gov ernmental efficiency and economy have won "a vast reservoir of public support." The 'committee's report followed former President Herbert Hoover's denunciations! an attack made on the commission by the Democratic Digest, a magazine published by the Democratic National Committee. Mr. Hoover said the criticism in the magazine's September issue was an "infamous smear." The magazine had charged that the Hoover Commission was politically partisan and that ' Mr. Hoover "stacked" the commission with "vested interests." He said that was not so. The ottizens committee Is a pri vate organization devoted to stiin ulating support for moves to carry out Hoover Commission recom- menriatins for creating a more efficient and less costly govern ment. The citizens committee de scribed the commission as "bipartisan." THE NOT-SO-COOD EARTH Edward T. Pennock. left, how neighbor Lester C.
