Oregon Farmers
Vote Tomorrow
On Wheat Quotas
By UNITED PRESS
Tomorrow is election day for
some 11,075 Oregon wheat far
mers in 107 communities in 34
counties.'
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.

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.
