Work Sfaris On Grange Tanks Central Point-Construction began this week on two steel Grain storage tanks on the south side of the Grange Co operative elevator on High way 99 in Central Point. These tanks will be 48 feet high and will provide storage for about 1,000 tons of grain. Increased storage has be come necessary due to great er volume of grain being used by Co-op patrons and also due to the fact that dur ing last harvest the volume of grain offered was more than the Co-op facilities could handle. It is hoped that with the new addition it will be possible to offer growers a ready cash market for all local grains. During last year's "harvest the Co-op pur chased more than S100.000 worth from local farmers. General contractor on the project is Reid-Strutt Co. of Portland. Local subcontract ors are R. J. (Jack) Batzer on the concrete work and Brill Metal on the sheet metal work. Erection will be completed well in advance of local harvests. This Week's Home for Living Cathode Rays Aid Wheal Stores ' Corvallis - Possibilities for using low-powered cathode ray irradiation to lengthen the storage life of wheat and protect its quality in storage are being investigated by an Oregon State College agricul tural engineer. , Dr. Myron G. Cropsey says the treatment shows promise in work to date for reducing spoilage from mold, one of the serious problems in wheat storage. Earlier research at Michigan State University has shown that the cathode ray treatment will kill insects and insect eggs and check storage losses from that source. Cropsey earlier worked on the project at Michigan State while he was there for ad vanced study. Cathode rays affect the milling and baking qualities of wheat. Seed exposed to medium -level irradiation treatments takes on a "burn ed" taste and odor. Reduced levels of irradiation are now being tried to determine if the seed-borne molds can be killed at dosages low enough to avoid the burned taste and , smell.

Negro's Position Told The newspaper Moscow Komsomoletz splashed p i c tures and text over an entire page of one issue telling read ers of the "real position" of the Negro in today's .United States, as opposed to an ac count in a recent issue of the State Department's Russian language magazine Amerika. The Moscow paper's pic tures showed two Negroes, al leged victims of a lynch mob, hanging dead by their necks, police beating up a Negro and a masked Ku Klux Klanner dangling a noose. The text said Negroes in America all live in ghettos, must all take their hats off when speaking to a white man. It said the Federal gov ernment has done nothing to enforce the Supreme Court's decision against school segre gation. Moreover, it said, there are even dog cemeteries in the U.S. where "colored" dogs may not be buried. WILL PAY U. S.
