Agriculture toard;
Conclave Near End
Walter A. Holt, general man
ager of the Pacific International
Livestock exposition in Portland,
last night was named winner ,o
the first Oregon Agriculture Dis
tinguished Service award.
The award was presented In
Ashland at the annual banquet
WALTER A. HOLT
Honored by Farm Bureau
of the Oregon Farm Bureau fed
eration, whose 23rd annual meet-
in? ends in Medford today.
Basis of the award to Holt, who
has played a prominent pan in
.Pacific Northwest agriculture for
.'almost 30 years, was his work in
originating the Grasslands pro
gram conducted by the Foruana
Chamber of Commerce.
Grassman Program
This program includes the an
nual "Grassman of the Year"
contest which has been adopted
bv several other states as
means of promoting improved
grasslands conditions.
Holt is chairman of the agri
culture committee of the Port
land Chamber of Commerce. He
has served as county agent in
Clackamas and Umatilla coun
ties, as secretary of the Oregon
Wool Growers, as a member oi
the executive committee of the
American Wool Council, and is
a member of the Farm Bureau
and of the Grange.
Featured speaker at last night's
annual banquet was George Wil
son, Clarksburg, Calif., president
h California. Farm Bureau
federation.
Farm Prices Down
"American farm prices have
dropped 20 per cent, and no
part of the economy can permit
them tor go lower without ma
terially injuring the entire Amer
ican economy," Wilson declared.
Pointing out that, "At the end
of this harvest year it will cost
about $1,000,000 a day to store
farm crop surpluses, and the
daily deterioration will amount
to about as much," Wilson called
for increased development of
Asiatic markets for U. S. farm
produce.
"A eood deal of these sur
pluses could be traded for basic
raw materials, such as rubber,
which can be stored very cheap
ly and" which will increase in
value compared to the low world
prices today," Wuson said.
Sect Friendship Result
- "If we trade farm surpluses
for these basic materials, we
can give them (the. people of
Asia) employment, - hope, and
government stabilization, and
can make it easy and natural
for them to become friendly
with the United States."
: The California Farm Bureau
j v.o rT of
the first essentials to help for
the people of Asia is to matte
them understand that the Amer-
irnn capitalistic economy and
vstem is fundamentally differ-
-nt from European and other
Systems under which they have
lived. .
"If we are to stop. Commu
nism, we must talk to them
1 about what the United States
: stands for. Freedom and oppor
tunity for the individual is the
basis for our advances, and the
only basis on which they can
make anv true advance," he
said..
Nntine that Asiatic nations
are short of dollars, Wilson stat-
prf "We have a . program for
gelling American commodities
ffor local currencies which has
rheen received enthusiastically
"He added, "We also can substi-
tute surplus commodities for dol
- lars in economic aid" to Asiatic
"nations. He estimated that such
a substitute could be very sue
cessful "up to about half."
"The things the people of Asia
really seek are education, oppor
tunity for ownership of land, and
a far more classless society,"
Wilson said. "These are the at
tributes of the United States. If
we let them know these are tne
things we want to help them
achieve, we are assured of their
friendship.
Other activities at the Ashland
meeting included selection - of
Mariorie Brown, Bonanza, as
state winner in the Farm Bu
reau's Rural Youth Talk meet
Subject for discussion in the
meet was "Democracy Just
w
Mi
Doesn't Happen," :
Other events on yesterday's
program included the annual ad
dress by Ben Robinson, Imbler,
president of the OFBF, and the
annual report by George W,
Dewey, executive secretary of
the federation.
Robinson stated that one of
the leading issues facing Oregon
farmers is that, of conservation
of water supplies. Agriculture
is using more water each year,
and will probably require even
larger amounts to feed the na
tion's increasing population, he
said, adding that in future years
"competition for water is going
to.be terrific."
Dewey pointed out. that the
Oregon Farm Bureau federation
has a thousand more members
than it had last year. The OFBF
has practically paid off its debts,
and theh organization's budget
is balanced, Dewey said.

Officials Who Fail
To Inform Public
. A resolution condemning
withholding or public informa
tion by appointed or elected of
ficials was passed this morning
by delegates to the 23rd' annual
meeting of the Oregon Farm
Bureau Federation.
The resolution states, in part;
"The membership of the Ore
gon Farm Bureau Federation,
being greatly disturbed at the
trend toward the practice of
withholding public information
not essential to the national se
curity, does hereby demand that
public officials, both elective
and administrative, ... shall not
be muzzled by executive orders
or other threats to the free ex
change of ideas and informa
tion."
"The deliberate withholding
of public information offers a
convenient cover for corruption
in the form of private, personal
gam by some insidious public of
ficials," the resolution states.
.eiinnermore, secrecy is con
ducive to, and essention for, the
creation of a dictatorship." ?
Another- resolution - adopted
this morning favors a flexible
farm support program of at least
75 per cent of parity for stor-
able commodities. "Provisions
for marketing quotas and acre
age allotments must be retained
and further control over
'diverted' acres be established,"
it says.
It adds, "For non-storable
crops, , we believe indirect sup
ports will cushion the drops in
market prices," and We oppose
any script system or any other
similar purchasing system for a
school lunch program."
A third resolution calls on
the Oregon legislature to adopt
uniform motor vehicle code
along the lines recommended by
the National Highway Users con
ference. The resolution also
urges that uniformity be achiev
ed in regulating load, width, and
height specifications in motor
vehicle regulations.
Although the convention was
scheduled to adjourn this morn
ing, a large number of ; resolu
tions, on rural roads and high
ways, natural resources, mining
laws, power and rural electrici-
cation and international affairs
and trade remain on the agend
for consideration by the dele
gates this afternoon.
Other items of business still
to be acted on are election of
first and second vice-presidents,
and a meeting of the OFBF
board of directors.
More than 300 delegates from
all parts of the state are attend
ing.

RCA Named in Suit I
Charging Monopoly
Of Patent Licenses
Justice Department
Asks End of Action
New York (U.R) The Justice
Department filed an anti-trust
suit here today against the Radio
Corporation of America charging
it with monopolizing patent
licensing in the-radio-television
industry.
RCA holds some 10,000 patents
on equipment and devices in the
field. In the civil anti-trust suit,
the Justice Department asked
the federal district court to end
the alleged monopoly.
RCA officials were not avail
able for immediate comment.
Manufacture Restrained
However, the Justice Depart
ment emphasized that it is not
accusing RCA of monopolizing
the manufacture and sale of
radio-TV products and devices,
But the government said that
RCA's patent practices have re
strained the manufacture and
sale of radio-TV products and
devices.
The government's complaint
charged that RCA has maintained
a patent monopoly since 1932.
It said it accomplished the al
leged monopoly by means of var
ious patent agreements with
other companies.
Other Companies Named
The complaint named among
these companies the American
Telephone Laboratories, General
Electric Co., and Westinghouse
Electric Corp. s
These five companies were
named co-conspirators with RCA
in the complaint but they were
not named as defendants.
The complaint noted that the
radio-television industry "is in
a stage of evolutionary develop
ment." It said that research and
patent licensing in the industry
"not only determines the charac-
1 3 J
ter - of consumer products but
have vital significance for the
national defense."
Dunsmuir Girl
300th MF Patient
Mercy Flights, Inc., which
began its unique non-profit air
ambulance service in January,

der, 6-year-old daughter of Mrs.
Dan Bland, Dunsmuir, who was
brought here for surgery needed
because of a head injury suffer
ed when she and another child
bumped heads in a school play
ground accident.
Her condition was reported as
"good" this morning at Com
munity hospital. She went first
to Sacred Heart hospital, but
was moved because her condi
tion required a private room,
and none was available1 at the
moment at Sacred Heart.
- The girl was picked up by the
Mercy Flights' Stinson ambu
lance plane at the Mt. Shasta

afternoon. '

U.S. Will Stand
Construction Cost
Of Radar System
Net Will Be Built
Above Arctic Circle
Washington (U.R) The United
States will build and pay for the
long sought radar warning net
above the Arctic Circle and
across the frozen wastes of
Northern Canada, it was dis'
closed today.
A statement issued in Ottawa
and Washington said the two
countries have agreed that a
"single authority," the United
States,) should build the "Distant
early Warning Line" (Dew) for
defense of North America against
bomber attack. -To
Foot Bill
A. U. S. defense official .who
declined to permit use of his
name told newsmen " that the
United States "will foot the bill
on the construction job." Un
official estimates have put the
cost up to $1,000,000,000.
He said the question of man-
ing and paying the cost of op
erating the line, when it is com
pleted in Canada's desolate high
north, has not yet been settled.
The official disclosed that sev
en radar stations in the Ameri
can segment of the line already
are operating near the" Barter
Islands along the north coast of
Alaska. The line will extend
eastward for about 3000 miles,
probably terminating in Green
land where the United States
already has functioning radar
stations.
Agreement Reached
An announcement on Sept. 27
said the two countries had de
cided that the network, to be
called the "Distant Early Warn
ing Line," was necessary but
left open the question of "the
basis of participation by the two
countries in the construction
and operation of the line and the
division of costs."
Today's statement said that
It has been agreed that, al
though both Canada and the
United States" will participate in
the project, responsibility for
the work of construction and in
stallation should be vested in the
United States."
Mayor 'Thrilled'
By League Election
. Mayor D. L. Flynn said today
he was "thrilled" with his elec
tion as president of the League
of Oregon Cities in Portland on
Wednesday.
It is the third time that a
president has been named from
here. The League, which is 29
years old, has had former Mayor
C. A. Meeker, now deceased,
and City Attorney Frank Far
rell as presidents.
Enthusiasm shown in this
area in holding regional meet
ings several times a year was
a factor in his election, Flynn
believes.
" He and Mrs. Flynn will leave
Monday to attend the American
Municipal association's annual
convention in Philadelphia. ,He
expects to be gone a week to
10 days, visiting with relatives
on the way. '
Flynn's - duties as president
will include directors' meetings
and a series of speaking en
gagements at regional League
meetings.
, After his term as mayor ex
pires on Dec. 31, Elynn will be
appointed to the city ... water
board or planning commission
in. order to remain a city offic
ial and be eligible for the presi
dent's, position, he said.
HIGHWAY CLEAR

early this afternoon that the
Diamond Lake highway, No. 230,
is clear of snow the entire route

Morse Expects
Oregon Democrats
To Run Strong Foe
Washington U.R) S en.
Wayne Morse said today he ex
pects Oregon Democrats to run
their strongest possible candi
date for the United States Sen
ate in 1956 since he will seek
reelection - as an Independent
and cannot , expect Democrats to
leave that spo.t on their ticket
blank..: . . . ..
- Mc saidJ)S had, engaged in
no kind of "deal" with the Dem
ocrats and State Democratic
Chairman Howard Morgan said
the. senator understood his stand
ing with the Democratic party.
To Run as Independent
Morse recently told the Unit
ed States News & World Report
that it was his "present inten
tion" to run for reelection as an
Independent. He added, how
ever, that that intention could
be changed. -
He said his primary aim is to
serve the liberal cause, taking
whichever course seemed best
suited to that aim.
Morse's latest statements on
his relations with the Demo
crats came after- Morgan and
National Committeeman Monroe
Sweetland aired f their differ
ences over party policy regard
ing Morse. ' .
Sweetland, m a statement
made Tuesday, had implied that
Morse could not expect Demo
crats to ease his fight for re
election by putting up a weak
candidate if Morse were to run
as an Independent.
Morse said he believed he
had been of greater help to
Democratic candidates in the re
cent election by campaigning for
them as an Independent rather
than as a Democrat.

Dirksen May Offer
Compromise Plan in
Censure Controversy
Washington ; (U.R) Sen
Everett M. Dirksen (R-Ill.), said
today he probably will introduce
a compromise plan when the Sen
ate resumes its McCarthy cen
sure debate Nov. 29.
; Meanwhile, Sen. George W.
Malone (R-Nev.) temporarily
withdrew his idea of seeking "to
kill the censure move by a vote
to table it
? Malone, who : originally plan
ned to file his tabling motion to
day if the Senate had been in
session, said he will "take an
other look at the situation" when
debate resumes on the resolu
tion to censure Sen. Joseph R.
McCarthy (R-Wis.).
Vote Expected
Senate Republican Leader Wil
liam F. Knowland insisted that
the censure fight "definitely"
will go to" a vote, despite some
predictions that the recess might
be used as a springboard to fili
buster the issue to death.
After seven days of debate,
the Senate voted 76 to 2 late yes
terday to adjourn until Nov. 29
to give McCarthy time to recover
from an elbow injury.
Dirksen, who argued eloquent
ly for the postponement, had
planned to offer his compromise
proposal yesterday. But he held
it up after McCarthy entered

Defense Motion Made
In Rogue River Case
A motion to strike the com

Freidenthal against the officials
seeking $10,500 in damages plus
costs for alleged damages sus
tained by the plaintiff during
action taken against him under
the city's ordinance banning
outdoor toilets. The city dropped
its charges on Dec. 11.
The defense moved to strike
Friedenthal's complain ton
grounds that it contained "more

were not pleaded separately. It
alleged three causes, malicious
prosecution, false arrest and
libel.
Defendants in the case include
Mayor Fred Dengler, Police
