Support of the entire popula

corded the Oregon delegation in
congress in the fight for funds
for the valley project, Jones
said.
Gov. Douglas McKay, who
was chairman o tne commis
sion from its inception to the
time he became governor, told
the large group attending the
meeting that the benefits that
would be derived from the-project
would more than liquidate
the cost of the entire project.
Cordon Sounds Warning
Senator Cordon warned the
meeting that with the govern
ment now $4 billion in the
red, some economies were abso
lutely essential and it might be
that appropriations for public
works during the next session of
congress would be reduced.
"In the first part of the 81st
congress there was appropriated
in round figures $44 billion, the
largest of any appropriation in
any peace time year, he con
tinued. "We have this huge defi
cit. Private business cannot op
erate by spending more than is
received and the government
can't do it either.
Cordon said there were econ
omies that could be practiced
that would cut down government
expenditures but expressed
doubt that such economies would
be put into effect during the
next session of congress.
"If we confiscated everything
above $10,000 from every priv
ate individual in these United
States we would still be a little
short of off-setting the 1950 defi
cit," he said.
The Oregon senator assured
the meeting that he would do
all possible to get enough money
to carry on the project and ex
pressed certainty that the other
members of the Oregon delega
tion would do likewise,

CVA Warnin
By R. Nohlgren
That the public should be ex
tremely cautious in being sold
every program that is broached
by bureaucracy and that is to
be paid by the taxpayer was the
warning issued during Friday's
luncheon of the Salem Board of
Realtors by Ralph Nohlgren, !o
cal restaurant operator. The
statement' was made during a
discussion of the proposed CVA
which he vigorously and force
fully opposed.
Constant and continuous en
croachment upon the taxpayers'
ability to shoulder the load
means the ultimate destruction
of the American way of life.
Nohlgren asserted.
Nohlgren urged the study of
the bill that would place CVA
in operation by all persons. He
then took sections of the meas
ure and pointed out the power
that would be concentrated in
the hands of three individuals
whose only qualifications, he
said, were that two of them must
be residents of the northwest,
appointed by the president and
confirmed by the congress.
The speaker charged that
CVA would not correct admit
ted faults of the present system
of administering the resources of
the northwest.

(Continued from Page I)
Steelman said he regarded
Lewis' order as nothing more
than a "truce" in itself and that
he would be happier if there
had been an agreement. But he
pointed out, it leaves open the
processes of collective bargain
ing and on an important new
basis. Lewis is permitting local
unions to negotiate contracts
wtih individual companies.
Meanwhile, Steelman plan
ned to fly to Washington today

Willamette Valley Superior
For Dairy Herd Maintenance
By CLAUDE STEUSLQFF
A blind newspaper advertisement brought Earl Alexander,
new owner of the second high producing herd of cows in Marion
county, to Woodburn from the great dairy state of Wisconsin
Alexander told members of the Marion County Dairy Herd
Improvement association at Mayflower hall yesterday that all
year weather conditions in the 1

high production.
He noted that the 1300 cows

pounds of butterfat while the

to be present.
Insects harmful to garden and
field crops will be studied, also
insects which are beneficial to
man, in the course of the 4-H
project. Bishop stated. The ob

the life histories of various in
sects and modem methods of

Manon county had eight
proved sires in 1S48, more than
any other county in Oregon, ac
cording to Harold Ewalt, exten
sion dairyman at Oregon State
college. There were six Jerseys,
one Holstein and one Guernsey.
The Hoislein was outstanding,
increasing the average milk pro
duction of his daughters over
their dams by 3187 pounds and
average butterfat by 128 pounds.
Two of the Jersey sires increased
the dam - daughter production
while four decreased it, however
the Jersey dam production was
418 pounds o butterfat while
the Holstein dams yielded only
301 pounds.
There are now 4887 proved
sires in the U.S. dairy herd im
provement associations, of which
2541 increased production and
2346 decreased production. In
artificial breeding associations
where more careful selection is
used 367 sires increased produc
tion while 147 decreased it.
Ewalt said that of the 2S,fl08
sires proved in DHIA work since
it started in 1906 more than
115,000 were dead at the time of
proving, pointing out the im
portance of proper early record
keeping by dairymen. Cows in
the first U.S. testing association
averaged 21S pounds of butter
fate. In 1848 there were 1668
associations and the average had
gone up to 350 pounds.
"Superior sires and feed con
ditions are closely allied and
high production means better re
turns for the dairyman," said
Ewalt. A recent survey of 61
Oregon grade A dairy farms
showed that those averaging
only 280 pounds of fat got 34
cents per hour labor Teturn;
those with 32S pounds received
58 cents per hour for their work
and with 380 pounds of butter
fat production the return was
$1.18 per hour.
