P. Dodd’s campaign throughout the state. Hundreds of letters must be mailed and lit erature distributed to thousands of voters. Oregon is a large state in area and the time for the pri mary campaign is all too short for one man to reach the voters with effective information. The Herald asks all its readers who can contribute 31.00 to this cause which is being waged for development of the upper Colum bia river, and the nomination of our own citizens, to regain and hold more political power for this part of the state. We would have put over the Umatilla rapids last fall and winter If we had been given better political help In the state and at Washington. D. C. Send in your dollars and the Herald will see that It serves its intended purpose.

Majority of National Dairymen Must Agree Before Relief Through AAA IS OBTAINED. Divided sentiment in the dairy industry nationally has caused the administration to abandon its plan of putting into effect a benefit pay ment plan of production control, ex tension officials at Oregon State col lege have been notified. The decision followed study of the reports from the 15 regional dairy conferences held throughout the country. Abandonment of the proposed plan for the present at least is in line with the fixed policy of the AAA not to attempt adjustment pro grams without the expressed sup port of a substantial majority of the industry, the announcement sets sets out. A limited program of diseased cat tle reduction and relief purchases financed by funds made available by congress may be carried out. The present policy of milk marketing agreements will also be continued, but no general control plan will be instituted until the industry as à whole is more nearly agreed on such a program. The Pacifie Northwest gave strong support to the proposed adjustment plan and may petition that certain portions of it be made effective in this territory, according to Dean Wm. A. Schoenfeld of 0.8.C., who presided as chairman at the Port land regional meeting. “On hearing, of the decision of the Washington officials Dean Schoen- told said it is a matter of great re gret that other areas did not see fit to collaborate. It is the belief of leaders here that certain phases of the plan applied locally in the Pa cific northwest would be preferable to leave the situation drift, although the opinion is held here that the en tire plan should be put into effect nationally. While the Oregon, Washington and Idaho dairymen were strong in their support of the program with minor modifications, reports from many other regional meetings show that the dairy industry is sharply divided over the proposed plan. Organized opposition was encountered in many of the regional meetings where both the private and cooperative distri butors opposed proposals for cutting down sales, preferring some plan of government encouraging sales pro motion. This was substantially the posi tion taken at the California meeting, reports W. A. Lloyd, in charge of extension work In the western states, who was with the federal party at Berkeley. The delegates from Nevada, though few in number, supported the proposed AAA plan, he said. :♦............. . ♦ ♦ ALONG THE CONCRETE • ♦ +49949*994999999 John Pace answering his fan mail to the tune of several thousand let- tsrs In No. 10 envelopes.
