WASHINGTON, D C Following the annual reading o! George
Washington's "Farewell Address" before the House of Represent
atives, Speaker Sam Rayburn and Representative Al Ullman aid
pictured examining a copy of the famed address. Congressman
Al Ullman, who is serving his first term from Oregon's second
congressional district, was chosen by Speaker Rayburn to read
the famed valedictory address in honor of the first president's
birthday.
"I think it Is unfortunte that the
livestock producers of Oregon
have seen fit to turn down a
formula designed to enable pro-
iducers to help themselves. The
commodity commission concept
in Oregon is clearly subject to
I local control by the producers
I themselves.
"I predict that in the foresee
able future we shall see a nat
ional checkoff plan for beef pro
motion; while that may be very
desirable, Oregon producers as
such will have little If any voice
in the amount of the assessment
or in the manner in which funds
will be spent."
The board of review which ex
amined the records of the refer
endum procedure and looked over
many of the ballots and regis
tration forms was composed of
E B Jackman, range specialist
at Oregon State college, and Free
man A Holmer, head of the elect
ions division for the state of
Oregon. Holmer substituted for
David O'Hara, former head of
the elections division, who was
out of town at the time set for
the review. ,; '
The board stated that all re
cords were in order and the en
tire procedure was in accordance
with the commodity commission
act.

Cattlemen Reject
Beef Commission
Oregon cattlemen voted decis
ively against forming a beef
commission, Robert J Steward,
director of the state department
of agriculture, announced Feb
ruary 27 following a meeting of
the board chosen to review the
referendum ballot. The vote was
2152 against, and 942 for.
Steward said that about three
fourths of those who registered
their production voted. Nearly
3100 producers who own 377,010
cattle (taxroll basis) voted. Well
over the one-third total state
production (part of a dual re
quirement to pass the proposal)
was represented in the ballot.
In Morrow county the vote was
42 yes to 25 no which represent
ed a tax count of 9474 cattle and
was one of only nine counties in
the state to favor the formation
of the commission. By contrast
Gilliam county voted only 10 yes
to 120 no.
Steward issued this statement
after he was advised of the vote:
now so we must start getting the
horses in shape.
Mrs Kirk has ordered a very
nice looking trophy and is having
it engraved with everything but
the winner's name. "The Wrang
lers" would fill that space nicely.
Let's see if we can't put it there.
See you at the grounds Sunday.

Husbands have to be fed three times a day, and
watched over seven days a week, 52 weeks a year.
Some of them need to be told when to buy a new
suit, when to have a physical check up. They need
praise when things go right and sympathy when
things go wrong. And almost all of them have to
be reminded about making plans for retirement.
Ifs a good thing a husband's love is worth all
the trouble he causes.
Retirement is in the future for all of us. And
the sooner we start making plans for it, the hap
pier these years can be. Does your husband have
a hobby? If not, urge him to develop one. Does
he have a retirement savings plan? If not, en
courage him to start one. Good health, outside
interestand freedom from financial worries spell
happiness in retirement
One of the best ways to prepare for retirement
is to invest regularly in U. S. Savings Bonds.
They're solid as a rock-guaranteed by your Gov
ernment They're loss-proof, fire-proof, theft
proof the Treasury will replace them without
charge in case of mishap.
And best of all, U. S. Savings Bonds now pay
you higher interest-fasterl Every Series E Bond
purchased since February 1, 1957, pays you a safe
and sure 3- interest when held to maturity. It
pays higher interest, too, in the earlier years, and
matures in only 8 years and 11 months.
So now, more than ever, it's smart to save with
guaranteed-safe U. S. Savings Bonds. Your hus
band can buy them regularly where he banks or
through the Payroll Savings Plan where he
works. But just be sure he starts todayl
Part of every American's savings belongs in U. S. Savings Bonds,
