The McKenzie highway was
opened to travel over the Cas
cade summit Friday permitting a
flow of traffic between Central
Oregon points and Eugene.
However, motorists were cau
tioned that water covers the
highway in two places west of
the lava fields. In one spot the
water was six inches deep this

an attempt to keep the roadbed
from being damaged.
Snow was removed from the
mile-high road last week, but
barriers at the east and west ap
proaches to the divide were kept
in place because of water condi
tions. Drainage from melting
snow was impossible because of

Death in K. Falls
Now Said Suicide
Klamath Falls, Ore., June 17
(U.R) The death of Pete Swan
son, 60, found Wednesday night
in an irrigation ditch near here
was termed a suicide today by
Sheriff Jack Franey.
Earlier, Coroner George Ad
ler said the man was murdered.
Franey said Swanson was a
Weyerhaeuser employee and
was despondent since a strike
closed down the mill. Penni
less, the elderly man had at
tempted suicide earlier.
After investigation. Franey
said. Swanson apparently
jumped off a bridge near Klam
ath Union high school into the
irrigation ditch, which carried
the body 14 miles before it was
dscovered. This accounts for the
bruisos and lacerations on the
body, he added.
Swanson was believed to have
been dead five days before his
body was discovered.

Grange Farm Ideas
Favored by Oregon
Oyer Brannan Plan
Ontario, Ore., June 17 (U.R)
Delegates by a two to one ma
jority favored the national
Grange program for supporting
farm prices over the Brannan
plan here Friday following a
debate on the controversial issue.
The vote was taken after a
lone debate between Brannan
plan backer E. H. Spoor, Cali
fornia rancher and chairman of
the California state committee
of the U. S. Production and
Marketing administration, and
Albert Goss, national master of
the Grange, defending the
Grange plan.
Present flan Poor
Both sides Goss and SDOor
agreed the present farm support
program was a poor one But
went to great length in defend
ing an individual plan to replace
it.
Spoor, who appeared upon
Secretary of Agriculture Char
les Brannan's behalf, favored
the Brannan plan and its pro
duction payments as a means of
reducing prices and increasing
consumption of meat, milk, eggs
and other protective foods, thus
improving the national diet.
The Californian said the plan
would treat all commodities
equitably, would add no new
controls, would create no new
bureaus and probably would
cost no more.
Expanding Market
Goss pointed to the Grange
plan as a means of expanding
markets, giving both fixed and
flexible price supports and two
price systems, while keeping
production controls and produc
tion payments.
The national master said the
Brannan plan actually was in
flationary, because the esti
mated $10,0000,000,000 to S12.
000.000.000 annual cost would
have to be raised through higher
taxes which in turn would have
to be passed on to consumers
through higher prices on goods.
The debate came about after
retiring State Master Morton
Tomkins had urged the con
vention to support a "trial run"
of the Brannan plan.
