Department of Agriculture
Opposes, Oregonians Seek,
'Two-Price' Plan for Wheat
, Washington (li.R) A spokes
man for the Department of Agri
culture said it is opposed to a
"two-price" plan for wheat, and
that goes for any interpretation
of it as a "three-price' plan.
"We oppose the two-price plan
now before Congress," the
spokesman said. "We understand
the so-called three-price plan is
just another name for the two-
price plan." '
The American Farm Bureau
Federation opposes the two
price plan which is sponsored
by the National Grange. The
farm bureau says that the two
price plan actually wouid mean
three prices.
Under the two-price plan,
v. heat farmers would be guaran
teed higher prices for their
crops which go for domestic con
sumption as food. They' would
get the lower world market
price for their wheat exports.
The farm bureau argues that
such a plan actually would
mean separate prices for domes
tic food consumption, export,
and livestock feed. The live
stock feed apparently would not
be supported at world market
prices.
WOULD PROTECT INCOME
Washington (U.P.) Two east
ern Oregon wheat growers told
a group of congressmen and
senators here that the two-price
program for wheat would give
greater freedom to Pacific North
west farmers and at the same
time protect farm income. .
i Marion Weatherford of Arling
ton, chairman of the Oregon
Wheat commission, and Jack
Smith of Condon, special repre
sentative of the National As
sociation of Wheat Growers, at
tended a breakfast and social
get-together as guests of Rep.
Sam Coon and Sen. Richard L.
Neuberger. Some 30 congress
men attended, and Sen. Neuber
ger invited members of the Sen
ate Agriculture committee.
Seek Parity Price
Weatherford told the, group
that a price of parity on wheat
consumed domestically for food
would be necessary under the
two-price plan in order for farm
ers to be able to buy supplies
and equipment at pricr-s which
would support the American
standard of living.
He said parity support on do
mestic human consumption
would add little if any addi-'
tional cost to the price of bi ead.
He said some controls would be
necessary for the first few years
of the program to aid in elimi
nation of grain surpluses and
to prevent breaking the world
market price of wheat.
"Jack Smith and Marion Wea
therford have done a first rate
job of educating today," said
Coon. "There is increasing in
terest in the domestic parity
program here in Washington,
and clear answers like these to
the questions that are raised
will gain valuable support for
the program."
House Rejects Gag
Proposal; Studies
Two Tax Proposals
Salem '(U.P.) There was no
limit on debate today as the
House went into session to wran
gle over its two most crucial
pieces of legislation a new in
come tax law and a cigarette
tax.
The House yesterday refused
to submit to a gag rule and turn
ed down 23 to 27 a proposed rule
that would have clamped limits
on the time each member could
talk on a bill.
Members gave approval to a
Senate-passed bill to permit the
state to make United Fund de
ductions from state pay checks.
There were 14 dissenting votes.
Also passed in an afternoon
session were bills exempting
church parking lots from taxa
tion provided they are used ex
clusively by churchgoers with
out charge, and a bill setting a
minimum salary of $7000 for dis
trict court judges.
Salem U.R) The House
passed and sent to the Senate
yesterday a bill reducing from
$35 to $10 the fee for non-resident
hunting licenses for per
sons who come from states that
give similar advantages to Oregonians.

'True Cash Value'
Defining Measure
Amended in Senate
Salem U.R) A measure de
fining true cash value of prop
erty, already approved by the
House, has been amended in the
Senate Assessment and Taxation
committee to put it into effect
Jan. 1, 1961.
Sen. Rudie Wilhelm (R .-Portland)
chairman of the commit
tee, said today ferhis decision was
reached so that' taxpayers would
have no immediate fears or mis
understanding of the act, which
would define true cash value as
market value as of the effective
assessment date.
Sen. Wilhelm stressed that
the reappraisal does not mean
more taxes but a uniform distri
bution of the burden of taxation.
With respect to property
which has no immediate market
value, its true cash value, under
terms of the bill, would be the
amount of money that would
justly compensate the owner for
the loss of the property.
The measure, House bill 40, is
considered the key to a so-called
tax package recommended by
the legislative interim tax study
committee. Other measures, al
ready approved by the House,
we're passed by the Senate yes
terday. They relate to the appraisal of
timber and timberlands, apprai
sal of industrial properties,
agreements between the various
county assessors and the state
tax commission, and assessment
of personal property on an op
tion by the owner on an annual
or monthly average basis.
These are not among the ma
jor revenue-raising measures,
such as the proposed increase in
income tax and a tax on cigarettes.
Knowland Hopes For Less 'Snafu'
Washington (U.PJ Senate
Republican Leader William F.
Knowland said today the admin
istration should explain the re
cent "leak" of the Yalta papers
to avoid a similar "snafu in the
future."
As We Live
By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D.
Real Interest In Others
Cures Self-Consciousness
Some people suffer so from
self -consciousness that they
make themselves and everyone
with whom they come in con
tact embarrassed and unhappy.
(Q) "My problem is that I
am very self-conscious, and I
don't know why. I'm not re
pulsive, nor have I two heads
or anything like that. I'm of
' average height and weight and
wear fairly nice clothes. I'm
just afraid people will not like
me or that they'll think I'm
stupid. I'm also afraid that if
I say 'Hi' they',11 think I'm
dumb or just ignore me. Some
kids are pretty snobby. Don't
get me wrong though. I do
have several good friends.
Please tell me how I can stop
being self-conscious. It makes
me miserable."
(A) The only way to stop be
ing self-conscious is to stop be
ing "self-bound.? Stop thinking
about yourself so much and think
more of others. -This is easier
said than done, I know, but it
can be done.
First of all, try to find out
why you are afraid people won't
like you. Has anyone actually.
treated you
mat way or
are you just
borrowing
trouble? j .
Second, ask
your good
friends to tell
you just what
your weak
nesses are,
and what
Dr. Huxtock . m a K e s peo
ple ignore you or dislike
you, if they do. Your friends
know you well enough to be able
to tell you what, if anything, is
the matter.
Then, finally, build up your
self-confidence. Start by improv
ing your looks. You may be aver
age in looks, but try to be above
average. Good clothes and good
grooming do a lot.
After improving your looks,
concentrate on your manners.
Learn to be polite and gracious.
This will make you confident
that you can' meet any social sit
uation successfully and will do
more than anything else to help
conquer your self-consciousness.

Spiritual Needs
Of Navajo Indians
Told by Missionary
Need of a spiritual plane to
implement any program to edu
cate' and help the Navajo In
dians was brought out by the
Rev. William G. Webber Wednes
day in a talk to Medford Ki
wanians during their luncheon
at Rogue Valley Country club.
Mr. Webber is a missionary
for the American Baptist Home
Mission society at Keams Can
yon, Ariz.
He spoke of the Indians as be
ing in a precarious way spirit
ually and emotionally and said
that is where the church comes
into the picture. -
Among the Navajo's, Webber
said, there are 25,000 school age
children this year but only 6,000
are in school. He reported that
the government has begun a pro
gram to educate Indians. How
ever, he pointed out that federal
programs for the Navajos has
"not tended to lift the level of
the average man."
Describes Indians
The minister described the
Navajos as semi-nomadic people
and declared that their country
was beautiful to see but hard
to make a living in. Telling of
some of the difficulties in min
istering to the Indians, he term
ed them a suspicious and eva
sive people. He said there are no
roads in the reservation area
"in the sense we know them."
There are wagon tracks or no
roads at all, he stated. Webber
also mentioned the need for
knowledge of sanitation among
the Navajos.
City Police Sergeant C. W.
Lacy and Dr. John Bullock were
introduced as new Kiwanis members.
Knowland joined with other
members of the Senate Foreign
Relations committee Thursday in
unanimously demanding an ex
planation from Secretary of
Slate John Foster Dulles. Dul
les will testify at a closed com
mittee meeting after the Easter
recess.
Snafu, a slang word used in
the armed services during World
War II, almost means "Situation
Normal, All Fouled Up."
Knowland told report eis he
expects papers on' other World
War II conferences Quebec,
Teheran and Potsdam to be
released later. And he said he
hopes they will be made public
in an orderly, . normal - way
through release to all news ser
vices and newspapers at the
same time;
