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.

Darkness may be good for
ewls and bats. It's hard on
pedestrians. Most pedestrian
traffic deaths occur between S
p.m. and 1 a.m., says the AAA
driver training book, "Sports

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

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. Wear white
