! SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday, August 29, 1158 Way to Preserve Meals Introduced Chicago 'U.P.i A new pro cess of using antibiotics to pre serve freshness of meats has been introduced by the American Cy amid company. ."All that may be necesary." occording to Dr. Wilbur H. Mil ler, of American Cyanamid, "is a quick spray or dip of the con sumer cut with a solution of aur aomycin chlortetracycline prior to packaging." Miller said the process, called Acronize, "will use the antibiotic combined with refrigeration to help put perishables such as red meats, fish and poultry into the same category as most other it ems in the modern supermark et." - Miller noted an interesting possibility is "the centralized packaging of consumer cuts of red meats where the cut could pass from a central depot to the market and then under refiger ation to the consumer untouched by human hands." The process was cleared for commercial use on poultry by the Federal Food and Drug Ad ministration last November and Miller reported a steady advance in demonstrating the utility of the process on fish, beef, pork and lamb. . Ha said Acronize adds taste or color of its own, can not conceal inferior condition of the foods and was devised to im prove on original quality.

IT'S THE TRUE VODKA scholarship committee em phasised the importance of sum mertime employment for deserv ing students, a project currently supported by local Rotarians. During the past few years with Mrs. Butler as head of the scholarship program, Medford high school has had more stu dents accepted by West Point and Annapolis academies and by lead ing eastern universities than any other high school in Oregon on a per capita basis. Financial need is the major problem of youngsters seeking scholarships in institutions of higher education, the speaker told Rotarians. Increasing tuition and living costs make this bar rier especially difficult in larger eastern universities. The ten year Merit Scholarship .plan, wit) S20 million subsidy pro vided by industry, brings stiff competition among high school students of the U. S., she pointed out. Ray Johnson, chairman of the newly organized Medford Rotary club scholarship and foreign stu- dents committee, introduced Mrs. Butler and briefly outlined the efforts of the club to cooper ate in Medford high school's scholarship program.

Nixon's ailing father, Frank, 77, today was put back on the critical list with an indication he is suffer ing a recurrence of an ulcer con dition, Dr. I. N. Kraushaar re ported. Kraushaar said the vice presi dent's office in Washington has been notified but that Nixon has not been advised to return to his father's bedside at this mo ment. "His condition could go either way, improve or get worse," the family physician said. The vice presidents father was hospital ized for hemorrhaging ulcers earlier this year. The elder Nixon was stricken last week by a hemorrhaging abdominal artery that brought his son to this Los Angeles sub urb on the eve of his renomina tion as Republican vice presi dential candidate. He returned to his duties when the doctor assured him his father seemed improving. Emergency Board To Consider Salaries Salem U.R) The State Emergency board meets here Friday to consider salary in creases for state employees. Increases amounting to 5910, 000 for the biennium ending next July 1 have been recom mended by the State Civil Serv ice commission. " - Salary adjustments for em ployees whose pay is considered below standard have been rec ommended rather than blanket increases. Final action will also be taken on salary increases for faculty members of the state's universi ties and colleges. The increase was granted last month, but the board was uncertain whether the $106,000 for the raises should come from its own. mon ey or the civil service salary fund.

Griffith, head of the University of California's Medical Center's Department of Physiological Chemistry in Los Angeles. Griffith spoke today to nearly 700 of the nation's leading farm economists attending a joint meeting of the American Farm Economic Association and the Western Farm Economics As sociation. - - He said that thanks to modern science and technology Ameri cans have a wide selection of foods in and out of growing sea sons, in and away from where it is produced. "Happily, general food short ages, including shortages of pro tein, and problems involving cleanliness of food are not ser ious in this nation today," he said. "But, unhappily, overeat ing and lack of 'know-how' about nutrition are major difficulties." Americans Eating Lets Despite the tendency to as sociate obesity with consumption of fat, the UCLA scientist said. it is not really known whether the culprit is too much fat, too much dietary calories, or other factors. Dr. M. K. Bennett, Director of Stanford's Food' Research In stitute, told the group that sur prisingly, although people have more income for food, they aren't eating as much. He described a study he had made of food consumption in America during the past 70 years. The study shows there has been a drop of about 14 per cent in the amount of food, on calorie basis, sold in stores despite a tremendous increase in family income. He explained that Americans today can afford a wider variety of food, so there has been a spectacular drop in the consump tion of potatoes and grain pro- ducts, while cousumption of all other foodstuffs has been rising. I Modern Machines Blamed I Bennett said automobiles and I other machines have reduced the according j amount of energy we expend and the reducing diet fads have also become a factor. Theodore W.

He said the answer to Amer ica's critical farm problems lies not in price supports or soil bank programs, but in getting more people off the farm. He suggested overhauling state and federal farm employment agencies so they will serve farm people who want to leave farm ing and enter other occupations. typical low rates from Medford Portland $ .90 Salem 80 Eugene r ....... . .70 Klamath Falls .40 Station to station rates, not indudinj tax, for 3 minutes after 6 p.m. weekdays and all day Sunday Next time, say it personally by telephone i Pacific Telephone T DEAD ME, OOCTOP WHAT EVE.P POSSESSeO "THE MAM TO CO AUOUND BITING INSECT!.
