MORSE IN EFFORT TO AID FARMERS MOVE LAMB CROP Washington, July 9 (U.R) Sen. Wayne Morse, R., Ore., to day accused the Office of Trice Administration of "gross incom petency" in handling the Oregon lamb situation, and called for a 60 to 90 day rationing holiday for lamb in the northwest. He said slaughterhouse quotas should be lifted so that Oregon lamb can be slaughtered for lo cal consumption. The quality of the lamb is such, he added, that it cannot be shipped and hence must be consumed in the pro ducing area. He added that OPA price and rationing policies have made it impossible to do this. He also said, the government must stand rcaay to auy me necessary quantities" of lamb at ceiling prices to protect pro ducers. "My confidence in the Presi dent and the secretary of agri culture is so complete," Morse concluded, "that I am satisfied they will not permit this injus tice to continue longer." University Plana Future Students' Meeting Thursday Miss Anne Scriptcr, who was recently appointed University of Oregon Federation chairman of Mcdford, is assisting in arrange ments for a meeting of all high school graduates interested in going to college this fall, which will be held July 12 at 8 p. m. in Medford high school.

High school graduates who wish to talk individually with Miss Sicgman from 1 to 5 p. m. July 12 may contact Miss Scrip tcr to arrange for an appointment. Use Mall Tribune Want Ada. In a telegram to the Mail Trib une Friday Sen. Morse stated he had Just returned from a call on the President about the Oregon lamb situation and that he felt confident that a solution of the problem would be forthcoming soon. He asked to be kept in formed as to the latest develop ments so that he might "con tinue to insist upon a program which will absolutely protect lamb producers from suffering losses this year as they have suf fered from OPA mistakes during last two years." "Senator Cordon and I have made arrangements for a meet ing with the secretary of agricul ture later this afternoon." Sen. Morse said in his wire.
