Linn Adopts Crop
Insurance Plan
Albany, Oct. 11 (01 A move
ment aimed at having Linn
county one of SO U. S. counties
testing a new federal crop in
surance program for family
type farms was underway here
today.
Soil conservation committee
men and farm leaders voted 42
to 2 yesterday in favor of the
proposal. A minimum of 200
farmers must apply for the over
all crop insurance before it be
comes effective.
The Idea, as applied in Linn
county to seven crops, would
guarantee the farmer against
loss up to the amount of his to
tal Insurance coverage. Losses on
some crops could be offset by
gains in others. In effect, it
would apply the principle of
crop insurance now used In east
ern Oregon wheatlands to the
multiple crops of Linn county
considered as one.
The seven Linn county crops
eligible under the program are
wheat, oats, barley, Austrian
winter peas, vetches, common
rye grass and grain mixtures.
The insurance would be under
written by the federal crop in
aurance corporation.
George Coos, chairman of the
Linn county agriculture con
servation committee, presided at
the hearing. Speakers included
Murl Cummings, crop insur
ance official; R. E. Moorehead,
Washington, D. C, and Vernon
Ingebretsrn, Spokane, both of
the department of agriculture;
and representatives of the re
gional and Oregon offices of
both agencies.

know the same sales lag, that
developed last winter, already
is in the making.
Beyond that, the auto indui
try s sales excutives know the
car buying public has become
more selective. Buyers expect
greater trade-in allowances and
many are seeking discounts.
Car sales statistics always are
a few weeks old before they be
come available to the public.
Right now they show that from
January through August this
year more than 3,000,000 new
passenger autos were sold in the
United Slates.
That indicates the 1949 total
probably will go a little over the
earlier estimate of 4,000,000.
But four and six weeks old
figures mean little in the fast
moving automobile industry. So
all the car makers are planning
to step up their 1950 sales ef
fort. Several are planning to of
fer a wider variety of models
in a broader price range.
For most auto manufacturers.
this will mean adding new
models that can be priced lower
than those currently available.
They have plenty of medium and
high priced units.
Several producers In the med
ium price field report demand
continuing at high levels. At
the same time, it is no secret
that, overall, demand in the
lower price brackets is much
steadier than in the other group
ings.
There has been increasig em
phasis on the production of lower
priced models by all car makers
who already have such units in
their current lines.
The auto builders have to as
sume this trend will continue
next year. Some will meet it by
introducing new models design
ed for lower price tags.
Many of the car builders will
deny they plan early introduc
tion of lower priced models. But

Office Opened
Lebanon Linn county site of
a field office of the motor ve
hicle division will be located in
Lebanon, according to advice re
ceived Monday from the office
of Secretary of State Earl New-
bry.
The local office will handle
motor vehicle registrations, gas
tax refunds, and will be head
quarters for drivers' license ex
aminers. It will also disperse
highway information in cooper
ation with the state highway
department, Newbry said.
Three sites, all on the four-
lane highway of south Main
street, are being considered, the
secretary of state announced.
Negotiations will be made at
once and the office will be erect
ed as soon as possible.
The Lebanon office is one of
20 planned in all parts of the
state. They are erected by pri
vate capital and leased to the
secretary of state's office.
Leading to the decision in Le
banon's favor was the fact this
city is in the geographical cen
ter of the county, it is economic
ally stable, and its possibilities
of population increasingly good.
Newbry said.
The building will measure 24
by 44 feet or possibly a little
smaller. A Hilliboro office. Just
completed, serves as a prototype
for all the structures which are
of uniform architecture. A
Grants Pass office will open this
Saturday.
Newbry'f announcement fol
lows his visit here last Thursday,
when he was entertained at a
luncheon and taken on a tour of
the city. He was accompanied by
William Healy, assistant secre
tary of state.
The decision is a result of ef
forts on the part of the Lebanon
Chamber of Commerce, and lo
cal civic and industrial leaders.
Boy Scout Camperoo

The annual camperoo of Cher

29 and 30 at Camp Silver Creek.
Arrangements for the affair
were outlined during a recent
meeting of the Order of the Ar

The program will open with
games and demonstrations Sat
urday afternoon and the eve
ning will be devoted to enter

Current estimates are that by

little as $1,000 up to around
$200 below the price of their
present low-medium price
models.
There has been much specu
lation about the plans of certain
auto makers but it can be said
there is no standard-size model
automobile that could be deliv
ered for $1,000 currently in pros
pect. What is in much earlier
prospect is the keenest sort of
competition for business in theistarr'a court

Many of today s medium-pric

the war at less than $1,000. To
day most of them are selling for

HOPE FOR BETTER TRADE
U. S. Said to Break Even
In Global Tariff-Cut Deal
By JAMES E. ROPER
Washington, Oct. 11 (U.R) American officials said today this
country just about broke even in the new global tariff-cutting
program worked out with 32 other nations to stimulate world
trade.
Under the agreements which go into effect gradually after
January 1. the United States
will cut tariffs on an additional
$212,000,000 worth of imports.
It will also freeze present tariff
rates on another $38,000,000
worth.
"It's almost impossible to put
it all down in dollars and cents,''
said one U.S. negotiator, "but
the United States got as much as
it gave."
He added, however, that this
country will not immediately
realize all benefits promised un
der the new rates because U.S.
exports still will be hampered
by the fact that many dollar
short nations use import licenses
to keep out American goods.
As a result of the negotiations
which were carried on at An
necy, France, this country hopes
to get a better break in foreign
markets for such basic farm
products as grains, cotton and
tobacco, as well as petroleum
products, motion pictures, ma
chinery and other manufactured
goods.
The United States persuaded
other nations to cut or freeze
their tariffs on a vast amount of
American goods they buy. At
America's presently-i n f 1 a t e d
