Drugs, Topic Of Speaker "Narcotics and alcohol are causing so many problems today, especially among our young people," said a woman to her neighbor, "even here In East em Oregon. You hear of all kinds of programs being carried on in California and the East, but I wonder what is being done for our youth here In Oregon?' "A good question, and I know where we can find at least part of the answer," responded her friend. She was, of course, referring to the morning worship service of the First Christian Church, Heppner, and the Church of Christ, Lexington, Nov. 1. On these occasions, 9:00 a.m. at Heppner, and 11:00 a.m. at Lex ington, Mr. Harlan Nelson of Oregon Council on Alcohol Prob lems will be speaking of their part In the answer to the worn an's question. Mr. Nelson is manager of the Blanchet Farm Center for Alco holies and part time Chaplain of Rocky Butte jail, Portland He spent four years as Chaplain and counselor at the Salvation Army Harbor Light Center. Mr. Nelson is a graduate of the Multnomah School of the Bible and of the Western Conservative Baptist Theological Seminary. He comes to bring a timely message of the work of the OCAP in its fields of education, Impact, civic concern and church cooperation; the challenge of what lies ahead . . . not just a recitation of facts and dry'sta tistics. If you are Interested In know ing what Is being done in the field of narcotics and alcohol education and rehabilitation, Don W. Johnson, the local pas tor, cordially invites you to at tend either of these services to hear the gripping, often tragic, yet hopeful message Mr. Nelson will bring. New Wheat Program In September Congress unan imously approved a new Nat ional research and promotion program for wheat which will be known as the National Wheat Institute, The National Association of Wheat Growers, The National Grange, The Nat ional Farm Organization, The National Farmers Union, and the U. S. Durum Growers all supported the bill and will have a representative on the Doaru. Funds for the Institute will come from the Inveise Subsidy Pool for 19G8, when domestic wheat prices were below the world price, leaving a bulancc In the pool of $4.2 million. These funds have no bearing on the regular certificate funds during the period. Under this legislation, a pro ducer may elect to receive his share of the funds or allow it to remain In the fund for re search or new wheat foods and market promotion, One of the objects as mentioned would be Increased wheat consumption. In 1930 the per capita of wheat consumed in the U. i. was 1C9 lb. In 1969 this has dropped to 112 lb. There would be no research on increased production. Of the 832,000 producers with an Interest In the fund, l-i of these have less than $3.00 ac cumulated and 60 of those have less than $1.00. It gives an opportunity for all wheat producers to contribute to re search and promotion not just those in states with commis sions. This fund was accumu lated from 44 of the 50 states and represents all classes of wheat produced in the U. S. A producer earning $2.99 or less has to make a written applica tion to the county ASCS office for payment. The League has supported this bill and unless you have a substantial amount coming back, we urge the pro ducers to leave their share in the pool. With existing organizations mentioned earlier assisting in overall supervision of the Insti tute, administrative costs can be held to a minimum. lone News Briefs ' The lone Topic Club schedul ed for Oct. 28 has been cancell ed due to illness until Monday, Nov. 2.
