Farmers Face
Further Cost,
Price Squeeze
WASHINGTON (UP) An Agri.
culture Department report indj.
cates the cost-price "squeeze" or
the nation's farmers may tighten
some during 1957. . -The
economists, working with
ffigures for the first quarter of
1957, issued this thumbnail outlook
Wednesday night on the farm sit
uation as it shapes up for this
year compared with 1956:
Farm production "down." De
mand "as strong or stronger."
harm prices a little higher.
Farm cost "higher." Farm in
come "up.".
tightening of the cost . price
squeeze is reflected in the phrases
"a little higher" for farm prices,
and "higher" for farm cosus.
Prices received by farmers for
their products in the first quarter
of 1957 averaged 4 per cent high
er man a year earlier. The de
partment forecast "no significant
chance" in the coming months, but
said prices for the year may av
erage a little above 1956.
On the other hand, prices paid
by farmers, including interest,
taxes, and farm wages, averaged
close to 5 per cent higher in the
first quarter than in the same per
iod of 1956.
Price increases have occurred
in most major industrial items
purchased by farmers for living
and farm production. Farm wage
rates on April 1 were 4 per cent
higher. Interest charges were up
8 per cent. Farm real estate taxes
increased 5 per cent. -

tion will be by donated labor.

Centennial
(Continued from Page 1)
ment contemplated by the centen
nial directors would provide for
400,000 square feet of exhibit space
plus an indoor arena seating ap
proximately 15,000 persons.
In addition, the plans for the
centennial call for a marine cen
ter for water sports with a bleach
er section capable of seating an
other 15,000 persons.
The PI site was selected for the
centennial, Brandenthaler ex
plained, because the centennial di
rectors decided on a regional fair
and did not wish to go to the ex
pense of erecting a large number
of buildings which would have to
be torn down after the end of the
fair.
TV Shows Contemplated
Floyd Maxwell, who has been
designated director of the centen
nial, said that preliminary negoti
ations have indicated that major
national firms will lease space dur
ing the show, and that national TV
shows will originate from the cen
tennial buildings.
Cooperation of county (air direc
tors in sending the best of their
acts to the centennial has been as
sured, Brandenthaler said.
He added that the expected out-
of-state attendance during the cen
tennial, will likely increase the at
tendance of the Oregon State Fair,
the Pendleton Round-up and many
of the county fairs located in coun
ties on inter-state highways.
As quickly as negotiations can
be completed with fair officials
and PI directors, the committee
will report out the appropriation
bill.

Survey Shows
The radar survey showed that
only 35 per cent of the 5,980 cars
checked traveled under the 25
mile posted speed, Chief Warren
said. Another 46 per cent traveled
between 25 and 30, 16 per cent
between 30 and 35 and only
3 per cent exceeded that mark.
Chief Warren indicated he
believed the average motorist set
himself to drive a safe driving
speed. The few who exceed it are
the ones laws have to be made for.
he said. He noted that of those
speeding, only 20 were doing above
40 miles an hour.
Most of the speeding occurred
during the evening rush hours as
workers headed home from work.
he said. Seven fo the 20 speeders
were checked on Market Street.

sed the possibility of raising the
speed limits on certain streets.

City Manager Kent Mathewson,
who is expected to refer it to
th Council.

increased speed to the State Speed
Control Board for approval of
