Page 8 Heppner Gazette Times, TKurs'day June 2, 1955 Wheat Allotments Made, Referendum Planned June 25 Oregon wheat farmers are re ceiving their 1956 acreage allot ment notices this week, reports Arnold Bodtker, administrative officer of the state .agricultural stabilization and conservation committee .Portland. These allot ments are farmers' share of the county, state and national totals set recently. As required by law, Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson also has proposed marketing quotas for the 1956 wheat crop. On June 25, producers will have a chance to vote in a referendum on whe ther they want quotas. Approval by two-thirds of those voting is necessary to put quotas into ef feet. Bodtker reminds wheat farmers that regardless of the outcome of the referendum, acreage al lotments will still apply. This means growers must stay within their established acreage allot ments in order to be Eligible for price supports. Any wheat producer In com mercial areas who will have in excess of 15 acres of wheat for harvest as grain in 1956 is ell gible to vote In the referendum. M. D. Thomas, agricultural eco. nomist at Oregon State college, points out that under present laws: If the national vote on quotas is "yes" price supports between 45 and 90 percent of parity will be available for those who stay with in their acreage altotment. Those who harvest more than the allot ed acreage would lose the right to price supports and be subject to penalties on "excess' wheat. If the vote Is "no" price sup ports based on 50 percent of por ity will be available to those who stay within allotments. Others would not be eligible for price supports. There would be no restrictions on marketings. Under quotas, "excess" wheat is subject to a penalty equal to 45 percent of the parity price. Pay ment of penalties can be avoided or postponed by meeting certain requirements provided in the regulations. Further information concern ing allotments, quotas and the referendum Is available from the county ASC and agricultural ex tension offices. o Printing Is Our Business!

Most pedestrian traffic deaths occur between S p.m. and 1 a.m., says the AAA driver training book, "Sports manlike Driving." The man on foot at night, especially if he cannot drive, thinks a motorist sees him much farther than it possible. Car headlights look so bright, 70a feel sure you ere seen. That depends! What are yon wearing? If you wear dark clothing, the driver see yon by means of only &4very little re flected light. Under the best conditions, pedestrians are almost invisible to the driver until the car is nearly on them. Rain, snow, fog, dirty windshields, or in efficient headlights make mat ters worse. They cut way down on a driver's visibility. It be comes mighty hard for him to see pedestrians. Protect yourself.
