O. L. BARLOW. Mgr.
Some 25 of Oregon's most promi
nent men and women assembled in
Portland August 28 and presented
in emphatic terms their reasons why
KOAC, the state's only publicly-
owned radio station, should not be
forced to relinquish a portion of
its time and power to a commercial
broadcasting company of LaGrande.
The Portland hearing was called
to enable Oregon citizens to voice
their opinions in the matter without
the necessity of attending the offi
cial hearing before the federal ra
dio commission in Washington, D.C.
September 18, and the testimony ta
ken will be forwarded to Washing
ton and introduced at that hearing.
Alva W. Person was appointed by
the radio commission to preside over
the Portland hearing.
KOAC is a strictly non-commer-
cial station, operated since 1922 In
the interests of public education,
and since 1928 has been using 1000
watts power with strictly modern
equipment on unlimited time. It
serves all the higher educational in
stitutions, many of the state depart
ments at Salem, and several of the
semi-public agencies of the state.
such as the Oregon State Tubercu-
losis association, the Oregon Con-
gress of Paints and Teachers, state
grange and farmers’ union.
The sentiment voiced in the tes-
timony at Portland was unanimous
as to the importance of maintaining
the station as it is. as a public re-
source that should be conserved. It
was felt by all that any loss of pow
er or limitation of time would ser-
lously cripple the ability of the sta
tion to serve the people of the state.
While there was no disposition to
deny the LaGrande station a license,
there was strong feeling against
granting it at the expense of the
state-owned station.
“This station by all means must
be preserved to the public,” said
Ray Gill, master of the state grange,
who pointed out that it is the last
regional radio station In the United
States with unlimited hours of oper-
ation, owned and operated by the
public, and with no commercial as-
pects.
Umatilla Co-operative Creamery
made an excellent showing at
monthly scoring and analysis con
ducted at Oregon State College De
partment of Dairy Husbandry.
The samples are taken from the
regular run of print butter sold to
retailers and mailed to Corvallis
where the butter is scored for qual
ity and analyzed for composition
and yeast and mold count.
The scores of the various cream-
eries range from 0 to 100 on compo-
sition and the yeast and mold
counts range from 0 to 10,000 per
cubic centimeter. The efficiency
score is the average of the composi
tion score and the yeast and mold
score.
The Umatilla Cooperative Cream
ery had an efficiency score of 100%
and a yeast and mold score of 99%
which makes an efficiency score of
99.5%. Only one creamery of the
33 creameries represented, had an
efficiency score as high as the Uma-
tilla Cooperative Creamery.
The quality score for the Umatil
la Co-op Creamery was 91.6% while
the average score of all of the cream
eries represented was 90.67%.
Of the butter sold through inter-
state Associated Creameries by the
Creamery :
Umatilla Co-operative
15,300 lbs. scored 92; 13,124 lbs.
scored 91; 9,588 lbs. scored 90;
butter
3,196 lbs. scored 89. Total
‘
sold, in cubes, 41,208 lbs. Local
print trade, 8,095 lbs. Total sales,
49,203 lbs.
The butter has shown a great im-
provement in the last few months,
and no butter has been returned for
any reason whatsoever.
Improvements in equipment and
sanitary conditions have made it
possible for the Umatilla Co-opera
tive Creamery to do as well as many
modern plants.
FIGURES SHOW FAIR “RENT”
TO BE PAID WHEAT FARMERS.
Wlth the amount of wheat acre
age reduction definitely set at 15
per cent by the Wheat Adjustment
administration, Oregon will have
156,900 acres to be taken out of
wheat production this next year, if
every wheat grower in the state
signs up under the adjustment plan.
Of course it is not expected that
everyone of the 17,090 wheat grow
ers in the state will find it advan
tageous to sign up to cooperate in
this national movement to restore
the purchasing power of wheat, al-
though early indications through-
the Columbia Basin show that more
than 90 per cent of the wheat grow
ers there are availing themselves of
this o: portunity. Organization work
is progressing ra,.dly throughout
the state in order that some two
million dollars out of a total of ap
proximately three and a quarter
million may be paid this September,
according to officials of the Oregon
State College Extension service,
which is in charge of the education
al and organization campaign.
By taking average yields of the
various counties, the extension ser
vice men find that farmers will, in
effect, be paid an average of *20 an
acre for the land left out of wheat
production. This amount varies, of
course, with the county, ranging
from *11.44 to as high as *32.78.
Of course. these benefit payments
are not made directly on an acre ba
sis, but rather at the rate of 28
cents a bushel for the allotment
bushels assigned each grower, but
now that the acreage reduction has
been definitely set at 15 per cent, it
is a simple matter for each grower
to figure out his possible benefit
payments on the basis of acreage to
be left out of wheat.
Actual benefits,« however, will
doubtless be considerably greater
than this, owing to the provision
which requires acreage reduction
for only two out of the three years
which the contract covers. The to
tal benefit payments for the follow
ing two years will vary according
to the market price of wheat.
Later information on uses which
may be made of the contracted acre
age Indicates that such land may
be put in permanent pasture crops
in any section of this state, but that
if it is so seeded, it cannot be used
the second year as contracted acre
age after the pasture is ready for
use. This, however, does not involve
a reduction in a man's total allowed
wheat acreage, but would simply
mean that he would have to handle
another tract of land according to
the restrictions provided in bis con-
tract.
POULTRY
Notice of Annual Meeting.
The annual meeting of the Her
miston Cannery & Laundry will be
held at the library Friday, Septem
ber 15, at 2:00 P. M., for the pur
pose of electing three board mem
bers and such other business as may
come before the meeting.
Attention is called to the fact that
any member who has not paid her
fifty cent membership fee, or who is
not in good standing in the Farm
Bureau Auxiliary, is not entitled to

NORTHWEST IS CENTER OF
MUCH FARM ACT ACTIVITY.
Oregon and the Pacific northwest
where the centers of much activity
related to the agricultural adjust
ment act and having to do particu
larly with wheat, fruit, and live
stock In this territory, according to
a summary of events issued by Ore
gon State college.
Of vital interest the world over
was the informal hearing at Port
land on the proposed plan of subsi
dizing export of some 40 million
bushels of surplus wheat in the
Pacific Northwest. This constitutes
a new policy for the United States
and is considered to have special
significance just now as the wheat
exporting nations are seeking to
reach some reduction agreement.
The hearing resulted in formation
of a detailed plan reported accepta
ble to all parties concerned, parti
cularly the producers, the exporters
and the millers. The plan calls for
selling this surplus wheat for what
it will bring In foreign markets and
then making up the difference be-
tween that and the domestic mar-
ket price out of proceeds of the
wheat processing tax.
The effect of this will be to raise
the price in the northwest by wip-
ing out much of the present abnor
mal spread between here and Chi
cago, officials believe. It will also
clear out the present congested ter
minals and storage space without
flooding the eastern markets and
thus harming the entire domestic
price level.
Immediately following the wheat
hearing the formal hearing on the
proposed marketing agreement for
tree fruits of the four Pacific north-
west states was held. Sentiment
was overwhelmingly in favor of the
agreement submitted by the agri
cultural adjustment administration,
which was a compromise between
previous majority and minority re
ports.
Federal examiners who presided
over the hearing expect it to be ap
proved and put into effect by Sep
tember 15, in time for the winter
pear and apple movement. More
orderly control of markets, result
ing in better returns to producers,
is hoped for.
Meanwhile the administration has
put its bog slaughtering plan Into
effect in the middleweet and has an-
nounced that hog .raisers in this
state will also be eligible later to
dispose of light weight pigs and
heavy sows soon to farrow at pre-
mium prices. This is purely an
emergency plan to avert
disas
trous surplus of pork, the officials
state.
More permanent plans for hand-
ling all livestock were considered
at Spokane where amendments to
the national code were approved
and preparations made to organize
the northwest states on a regional
basis.

OREGON CITIZENS OPPOSE
iNAVY AGAIN RECRUITING
MEN INTO SERVICE
The headquarters office for Navy
Recruiting for the Washington-Ore
gon district, located in Portland,
Ore., has recently announced that
after a long period of restricted re
cruiting, they are now assigned a
quota of about eighty men each
month for the next several months.
After the almost complete lack of
vacancies during the past several
months, this sudden call for a large
number of men opens up a field of
opportunity to many that have felt
that the chances for a naval career
were closed to them. The recent de
cisions of the government to main
tain the national defense at its
highest peak of efficiency, with a
minimum expenditure, for safeguard
Ing the interests of the country has
caused this sudden increase in en
listments.
The Portland office accentuates
the requirements for enlistment,
namely: an applicant must be a
United States citizen, be between
the ages of seventeen and twenty-
four inclusive, must have at least a
grade school education, be of up-
standing character, must have no
dependents, have a clear police and
juvenile court record, must be able
to pass the required physical and
mental examinations and be able to
supply references as to character.
A great many young men who
have applied and were unable to en
list due to lack of vacancies, may
now find this field of opportunity
opened up to them. Any young men
desiring further information con
cerning enlistments in the navy
should see their postmaster or the
recruiting officer in the U. 8. Court
House, at Portland. Ore.
CHICKENS POINT TO
VITAMIN DISCOVERY
Beri-Beri Cure Believed to
Have Led to Idea.
Some chickens In Java contracted
beri beri in 1897 and their cure pos
sibly led to the Idea expressed in the
now common word, vitamin, which is
heard and read on every hand, says
H. H. Williams of the New York State
College of Agriculture. Beri-beri, he
says, is a disease of the nerves which
leads to paralysis and heart failure.
A Dutch physician, named Eljkman,
was medical officer to prisoners In
Java. He discovered that the hens
that were fed only the left over pol
ished rice from the prisoners' table
had contracted the disease.
Doctor Eljkman then added the rice
polishings, which is similar to the bran
of wheat, to the chickens’ diet and
they recovered. Then the prisoners
were fed the unpolished rice Instead
of the well-milled sort, and from that
time the disease beri beri ceased to
worry medical officers In the Orient.
From that time chemists began to
experiment and to theorize on the sub
stances known today as vitamins. The
word was first coined twenty years ago
by a Polish chemist as a symbol for
an unknown substance vital to health
and life. Later, the chemists turned
to the alphabet as a temporary means
to designate ench vitamin, since they
are of unknown composition. Six dif
ferent vitamins are now definitely
known, although a recent book lists a
possible seventeen. No one knows
what vitamins are except that they oc
cur In small quantities, that they are
easily destroyed by heat and oxidation.
Fight on Tuberculosis
in Illinois Successful
The state department of agricul
ture In Illinois, through Its extensive
program of testing poultry for tuber
culosis. has succeeded In suppressing
to a large extent the disease in the
counties where this work has been
done.
But of much greater importance Is
the fact that the Information secured
can be used by any flock owner in
other North Central states where tu
berculosis In poultry Is equally prev
alent, to rid his flock of this menace
without applying the tuberculin test.
Out of a total of 2,302 poultry flocks
in LaSalle. Livingston, Bureau and Mc
Lean counties. Illineis, tuberculin test
ed during the period September 1,
1931. to December 1, 1932, 1,323 or 57
per cent disclosed one or more react
ing tuberculosis birds. This Is a low
er percentage of flock Infection than
was found In several other counties In
the North Central states.
Out of a total of 96,088 old birds
tested (over eighteen months of age),
12.571 or 13.08 per cent reacted. Out
of a total of 250.802 young birds test
ed (under eighteen months of age),
3.080 or 1.23 per cent reacted. This
strongly confirms previous data se
cured which shows that old birds are
much more seriously affected with tu
berculosis than pullets. The lower
percentage of the pullets reacted In
the counties «where the testing was
done at an earlier age.
DARING AERIAL SCENES
THRILL IN WAR DRAMA
Hollywood — Paramount, in par
ticular—has done itself proud!
They’ve taken a story by the au
thor of "Wings", injected the most
thrilling air episodes this inveter
ate picture-goer has ever witnessed,
spiced it with crisp and effective
dialogue, provided it with a wind
fall of mirth, added a tender and
genuinely touching romance, and
given a complete and authentic pic
ture of the lives of those devil-may-
care skymen who flirt with death in
the clouds and are just as adventur
ous on the ground.
That's a mighty big order. But
that’s what has been done in “The
Eagle and The Hawk," showing at
the Oasis theatre Friday and Satur
day. The cast is a director’s dream—
Fredric Marsh as “The Eagle,” lov
ing flying, abhorring killing; Cary
Grant as “The Hawk,” quick-temp
ered and quick-triggered observer;
blonde and lithesome Carole Lom-
bard as the beautiful English so-
ciety girl; Jack Oakie, as the avia
tor who takes nothing seriously ex-
cept his meals and his medals.
