The President asked Congress to chop S254 million from agri culture funds earmarked for the soil bank during the next fis cal year starting July 1. This will trim Eisenhower's fiscal 1958 spending budget to about $71,50,000,000. Democrats pin their chief lopes of a tax cut, to be effec tive next Jan. 1, on cutting Eisenhower's record peacetime budget deep enough to justify a reduction in personal income and some other levies. The cut also would depend on whether federal revenues hold up suffi ciently. Patient Medical patient at Osteopathic hospital is George Kerby of Talent.

Chamber Support GP Efforts For Law Revision Efforts being made in the Grants Pass area to obtain a re vision in the law which would permit a water-using industry to locate there, drew the support of the board of directors of the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce this morning. Present . state law prohibits the use of water from the Rogue river for industrial purposes. Grants Pass residents say a large industrial concern is interested in locating in the Merlin area, provided it can obtain sufficient water, and the Rogue is the only source. A simple amendment to the law would permit it to 'use the water. It was pointed out that there would be no danger of pollution of the river below the area, for the industrial effluent would still be subject to the require ments of' the state sanitary au thority, the game commission and the water resource board. Provide Markef It is believed that the indus try in question would provide an excellent market for many wood and wood waste products produced in Jackson County, the board was told. The board also aproved the appearance of Don McNeil, the chamber manager, at a Civil Ashland Girl Suffers Third Degree Burns Ashland Sherry Fraser, the three-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William N.

She was taken to Ashland General hospital, where her con dition was listed, as "critical" yesterday. Burns covered her legs, arms, body and neck, ac cording to reports.

PHONE 2-8355 (Salesman Needed) Thursday. April 11. 1957 French Orchardist, Family Visiting In Rogue Valley A French orchardist and his wife. Mr. and Mrs. Rene Lelut of Paris, are making a brief visit in Jackson county this week as guests of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Taylor, Old Stage rd., Central Point. Also here is their son Jean Lelut, who has been in the Unit ed States the past two years under sponsorship of the Tay lors. He studied horticulture at Oregon Slate college for one year and will resume his studies there soon. Jean arrived here through a special arrangement by the state department and was placed in a home through cooperation by the Oregon state Grange and state extension service. Jean met his parents on March 16 in Wash ington, D.C., where they arrived from Paris by plane. Purchase Car The Leluts purchased a car in the southern United States and drove to Jackson county. They arrived Wednesday night and will leave Friday. While in this area, the Leluts are observing local pear grow ing packing methods. They visit ed local orchards this morning and were to tour packing plants this afternoon, accompanied by the Taylors and County Agents C. B. Cordy and Don Berry. Jean, acting as interpreter for his French-speaking parents, said his parents have about 40 acres of orchard land 10 miles from Paris. They grow Williams (sim ilar to Bartletts), D'Anjous, Co mice and other varieties. Lelut said he had observed several differences in growing methods here as compared with methods in his country. He said orchards are smaller and more divided, in France than' they are here, and there are more dwarf trees in France. He also noted that a method of controlling growth of trees vith use of wire, "espalier", is commonly used in France, but appears non-existent here. Jean, who has observed pack ing 'ichniques here before, said there is a marked difference be tween the two countries in pack ing methods This is largely be cause the Leluts are just 10 miles from their", market, while Jackson county growers are about 3,000 miles from some of their markets. Thus, in France pears are packed for immediate consumption, while in Jackson county they are packed to with stand long periods of transporta tion. Mr. and Mrs. Lelut said they had enjoyed their trip across the United States. To Jean's great embarrassment, Lelut laughing ly made frequent references to one novelty in their journey. It seems that Jean, who was driv ing the newly purchased auto mobile, was cited for making an improper left turn in Washing ton, D.C. As an outgrowth of this, a misunderstanding arose over validity of his international driver's license. They lost some time and Jean parted with $55 before the confusion ceased and the Leluts continued on their way.
