Balloting will be part of a nationwide poll among wheat growers to determine their choice between rigid acreage controls with high price sup ports, or no quotas with sharply reduced subsidies. New Quotas Lower If production quotas are ap proved by a two-thirds majority, the federal government will continue to support wheat prices at 90 per cent of parity or about $2.45, Portland. But the. new quotas for next year's plantings in Oregon are 28 per cent, or about 400,000 acres, lower than this year. Production in excess of quotas would be penalized by about $1.20 a bushel. -Would Cut Subsidies If the farmers reject govern ment control of their acreage, subsidies will be cut to 50 per cent of parity of to about $1.45 a bushel. The election was called by Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Benson when bumper crops gave the nation a stockpile of nearly two billion bushels of ' wheat. Domestic demand for wheat in the United States seldom ex ceeds 700,000,000 bushels. NIGHT OF BATH Barre, Vt.

(Inttmatimmt) Ike Proves Self as Expert With Skillet As Well As Top Hand With Fishing Rod Br MERRIMAN SMITH United Press Correspondent Pine, Colo. U.R) Presi dent Eisenhower is not only s master mountain trout fisher man, but a top hand with the skillet 4 I watched the President cook and fish here yesterday and came away impressed more by his streamside cooking ability than his deftness with a fly rod Not that he isn't an expert angler. I was lust impressed by the close up of the nation's chief executive scurrying through the underbrush to pick up firewood, quickly building a rough stove of stones taken from the Platte river, then frying trout in heavy skillets and serving them cm paper plates with undisguised pride. Catches Good Fish Mr. Eisenhower drove here from Denver yesterday to the cattle ranch of an old friend, Bal Swan. Bal wasn't around but the chief executive had an able fishing companion in Ak sel Nielsen, head of the Denver Chamber of Commerce. They fished for about two hours in the stream running through the ranch. The Presi dent landed a handsome string of rainbow, brook and brown trout He, Nielsen and Col. Robert L. Schultz, the President's military aide, finally sat by the bank when the day grew hot and cleaned their fish. Bacon Sissies The President returned to the ranch buildings, shucked h i s heavy wading boots and pro claimed 'Come on everybody, let's go down stream a bit and 1 11 cook you some of the best fish you ever ate. The President peeled the greasy wrapper from a pound of bacon, sliced it with his pocket knife, and started the bacon siz zling in one of the skillets, Then he melted butter in the other skillet and eventually mixed bacon grease with butter in each pan Then he got down to real bus iness. He mixed salt, pepper and Another Sizzling Day for Oregon Br UNITED PRESS Oregon was due for another scorcher today and the weather bureau held out little hope of relief from soaring temperatures during the next 24 hours. Fire danger was expected to remain at high levels in most Oregon forest areas, with the exception of the coastal strip. All reporting stations in Ore gon except Portland and the coaat had readings above 00 de grees yesterday. Medford was the hottest with 100. Portland had 87 while Newport had 64. Forecasters predicted tempera tures from 78 to 98 through Fri day in the interior and 62 to 72 on the coast. A few southeast ern mountain areas may get thundershowers. Lakeview had .01 of an inch of rain in the 24 hours ended this morning. corn meal in a bag and dumped in the fish. Ike Eats Last He shook the bag vigorously to coat the fish with the mixture for frying, then' announced, "stand back I'm about to go to work." It seemed like only a mat ter of seconds when the Presi dent speared one of the fish in the pan and held it up proudly: "Who wants the first fish?" He refused to eat a bite until he saw that each of three re porters with him, the Secret Ser vice agents, Schultz and Nielsen had their fill. As a man who has tasted one of the President's fish, I can testify with complete objectivi ty that the chef at he Brown Palace hoel in Denver can't touch another chef named Eisenhower. Must Pay Taxes For Log Permits New legislation enacted at the recent session of the Oregon legislature requires that all taxes due on timber be paid before a logging operation per mit can be issued by the state forest, according to Ted Maul, district warden for the state board of forestry. Maul recommends that those applying for a 10-day temporary logging permit at the Medford office of the state forester first secure some means of showing that timber taxes have been paid. He stated that steps which an operator should take to facili tate issuance of permits at the local office include: 1. Know the legal subdivision on which the operator intends to work. 2. Know the name and ad dress of the landowner involved. 3. Have proof that taxes have been paid on the particular piece of property. Proof which will be accepted by the office in cludes tax receipts and tax col lector's certification of taxes paid. The state forester must close down any operation which exists on lands on which the timber and severance taxes have . not been paid. The closure will re main in effect until proof is presented of such payment of taxes and penalties. Freedom Medals Due Two Portland Men Salem - (U.R) Gov.
