Extension specialist in farm crops at Oregon State College, has appointed the committee to administer federal drouth relief In this county and In other counties which will be involved in the relief program . One of the genuinely encour aging developments in the woolen goods' field is to be found in current fashions reports. The country's author ities on styles in women's wear point out that 1931 spring styles will see a continued strong trend toward woolens and worsteds, paricularly knit goods. This news will lie welcomed by members of the National Wool Marketing Cor poration which has endeav ored to cooperated with wool manufacturers and others interested in broadening the market demand for wool. Saying that its principal object is to work in conjunc tion with the state and national wool growers' organ izations, the Morrow County Wool Growers Association was established in Heppner this week. An increase of 10 cents a bushel in the price of Pacific Northwest wheat is being sought as set out in a brief prepared for the Eastern Oregon Wheat League and presented to George S. Milnor, general manager of the Unites States Grain Stabilization Cor poration at Portland recently. The brief, a copy of which was received in Heppner this week.. states that the Pacific Northwest was unjustly dis criminated against by the stabilization corporation when it established the "pegged price;" the brief stated that the pegged price increased the spread between Portland and Chicago prices 10 cents more than before the pegged prices were set. The spread before is given at 3 cents, while after the pegged price Portland was 13'? cents below Chicago. The brief asks immediate revision of the Portland price to the position it normally holds in relation to the Chicago price. This district, the brief maintains, is the only wheatgrowing section of the U.S. which was not given such consideration. "The Farmers National Grain Corporation is purely a farmer-owned and farmer controlled organization" George N. Peck emphasized this statement in reporting a meeting of wheat cooperative directors and managers in conjunction with officers of the North Pacific Grain Growers, regional branch of the national corporation, at Walla Walla last weekend Henry Smouse. president.
