How much time do we have to complete the remodeling of ( ur plants to separate inspected from uninspected premises and can we be licensed for more than one operation? These were the most frequent ly asked questions during f hearing held by the Oregon De partment of Agriculture in Sa lem September 10 at which pro posed revisions of regulations relating to custom slaughtering and processing establishments were considered. In answering these questions Dr. M. L. Houston, supervisor of meat Inspection for the depart ment, pointed out tnat the re vised law went into effect Juiy 1, 1909, but, while the depart ment would give warnings when uninspected meat is found on in spected premises, it will not seek prosecution until after January 1. 1970, and said a person may be liceased to operate more than one type of establishment if the establishments are complete ly separate. Major changes suggested to the proposed regulations at the hearing included: The use of a stamp reading "processed in uninspected es tablishment" on meat that has been slaughtered in an inspect ed plant and transferred to a uninspected plant lor process ing, instead of requiring the obliterating or removal of all "inspected" markings on th meat. (Under the law mea slaughtered in an inspected plant loses this classification once it enters an uninspected establishment. Any meat slaugh tered in an uninspected plant or on the farm mav be process ed at only an uninspected Dlant). ' Regulations include a provis ion that would eliminate any possibility of horses being slaughtered by custom slaught erers. in Gazette-Times want ads pay Phone 676-9228 for G-T want ad service. ALWAY8 FIR8T QUALITY J MONDAY & TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22 & 23 true-to-life portraits N COLOR Canada Provoking Wheat Price War? The Canadian Wheat Board has moved the world closer to an all-out wheat price war, claims R. K. Baum, Executive Vice President of Western Wheat Associates. Last week the Canadian Wheat Board neeotlated a sec ret agreement directly with the rhlliDPine flour mills for a mm imum of 130,000 metric tons of wheat at concessional prices and with credit terms far more lib eral than are presently justified, Baum said. The prices are reportedly 5c per bushel below current mar ket prices for Canadian wheat. This is in addition to price cuts of over lie per bushel that have already been made during the past few weeks. This unwarranted price re duction in itself is a deplora ble action but, said Baum, the Wheat Boards decision to use new cut rate credit terms to capture a large share of this market has implications of an all out price war. The Philippines has long been the leading export market in the world for Dark Northern Spring wheat from the United States. The recent action by Canada will cost the United States at least $10 million dol lars in wheat sales during the next calendar year, Baum said Equally alarming, this special deal sets a pattern for other ag gressive wheat exports to also invade this historical U. S. mar ket. The Wheat Boards are gov ernment monopolies. Baum de clared, and have certain ad vantages in making specia sales under long term agree ments over the U. S. free mar ket system. This latest Canad ian action will force the U. S. Department of Agriculture to come up with comparable cred It terms and lower prices if it wants to stay in the wheat ex port business, Baum said. This type of action is regretable, he continued, because all wheat ex porting countries will lose as they cut prices in the stampede to woo the reluctant fire. Baum has been meeting In Washington. D. C. this week with officials of the U. S. Department of Agriculture to determine how the U. S. can protect its remain ing interests in the 38 million dollar Philippine wheat market, Leaders Needed for 4-H Clubs By EIXDINE TTJLLIS Leadership Workshop FIanad Preliminary plans are under- Lorene Whlttaker, Past Presl way on the workshop "Sewing dent( Oregon Extension Home irrr'LVAN " makers Council, and Jeanne will be attendine training ses- MW. , District VII Represent a Blnna nn h uinrkshnn HnrlnT "Ve, will De special BUeSt SpeaK th tact uwu nf Contomhnr tiiau ers at the September 24 leader will then teach the techniques shP workshop for all extension to project leaders from each Ex- "nit officers in Morrow county, tension Unit.
