Articles of Incorporation for Oregon-Washington Milk Sales, Inc. an Oregon agri culture cooperative corpora tion, were filed in Salem this week, according to Dick Westerburg, president of Oregon Milk Producers, and Ashland area dairy farmer. The new organization is de signed primarily to provide marketing facilities for those milk producers who desire to use it, Westerburg said. "The organization hopes to perform the necessary liaison between producers and. hand lers to prevent further demor alization of producer's price structure," Westerburg ex plained. "It has been caused by unwarranted manipulation by various segments of pro ducers in the Oregon and Washington areas." The organization resulted from area meetings and ac tivities of study committees during December, January and February, the OMP pres ident said. Oregon Milk Pro ducers will furnish manager ial assistance and clerical help for the new cooperative. Member units desiring to join, he said, should produce satisfactory proof of the ab ility to perform any and all functions required for repre senting needs and product, Westerburg said. Directors of the new cor poration are Tom Hall, Skam okawa, Wash.; Lawrence "Ger aghty, Merrill, Ore., and Ray Nickerson, Portland. Need Ciitd Need for the new regional marketing cooperative arose early this year when milk producers were being hurt by the concentrated buying pow er of the chain stores and the "under the table" dealings of fellow dairy farmers who were abusing the practice of giving volume discounts,. Wes terburg said. This came at a time when dairy farmers were already hard hit by the earlier than usual fall feed ing costs caused by the ab normally dry pastures, he said. The practice of giving more than the usual volume dis counts occurred mainly around the larger metropoli tan areas, and does not apply to southern Oregon area milk producers, according to Wes terburg. Since markets are inter-related due to fast trans portation it directly or indi rectly affected all of Oregon, southwestern Washington and northern California milk pro ducers, he added. A price war in Portland was predicted in February during a meeting in G f a n t s Pass by Ray Nickersorv, for mer Illinois valley dairyman, and OMPA field representa tive. This, he said, could happen unless the milk producers can join forces to put up strong opposition to the un ethical bargaining. Michigan Flounders In Financial Chaos As Payrolls Skipped Lansing. Mich. -(UPD- Michi gan floundered in fiscal cliaos today, unable to ipeet such basic government costs as pay rolls, telephone bills or travel expenses. Hope of heading off the state's worst financial trouble since the Depression was dimmed by a bitter political struggle between Democratic Gov. G. Mennen Williams and GOP lawmakers. Williams, tjie lawmakers and 28,000 other state em ployees face payless paydays under a priority system draft ed Wednesday by the Admin istrative Board, which warned of a $116,900,000 deficit by May 15. There appeared to be no immediate danger that Michi gan Bell Telephone- Co. and other utilities would cut off service to their big customer. State Controller James W. Miller said "people like to do business with us. They have confidence in the state." Maps Payment Schedule The Administrative Board, meeting to map a timetable for what Williams called "a great public disaster," halted all payments from the gen eral fund except those to be made under this schedule: Welfare-Todcy's $4,500,000 bill will be paid and future obligations will be met as long as "humanly possible." Schools - Michigan's 2,360 school districts, which have borrowed $70 million since July, will get the $35,500,000 primary school interest due them by May 15 "or as soon .hereafter as funds permit." Payrolls - This week's pay "or the legislature and courts .vill be skipped. It was virtu- Voice Recognized; Youth Arrested Portland-UPD-A school prin cipal recognized a voice Wed nesday and a 13-year-old boy was arrested for telephoning a false bomb threat. A caller to Alameda school said the bomb was set to go off at 10 a.m. The secretary who got the call motioned for Principal Ralph Wampler to listen in and asked the caller to repeat the statement. Wam pler thought he recognized the voice and found the boy was absent from school. Police said the boy admitted the call when questioned at his home. ally certain the May 7 payroll of $5,100,000 will not be met unless the political impasse over a solution to the cash crisis is broken. Payments to universities will be made on the same priority as state salaries. They will be paid after money goes to welfare and schools. Fight Orer Taxes Those selling goods and services to the state will not be paid for the duration of the order nor will hospital costs for TB patients and crippled children. The action came at a time when the state had $177 mil lion salted away in 45 ear marked funds which because of the constitution, laws and contracts cannot be tapped for general use. The state's plight has re sulted from lack of new tax laws to provide money for growing expenses. Williams has advanced a plan for a personal income tax on a graduated scale, a move op posed by Republican legisla tors as a . "soak the rich" scheme. State Police Budget Approved Salem -(LTD- After a pro longed debate, the Senate on Wednesday approved an $8, 544,840 budget for the State Police department. This appropriation includes $905,050 to provide state po lice officers with a five day work week. Opponents of the bill de clared that with the state in a precarious financial condi tion this was the wrong time to put state police on a short er work week. Sen. Alfred Corbett CD Portland) said the issue was clear. If the Senate wished to put the state police in a spec ial category from other state employees who now enjoy a five-day week it would have to take the responsibility, he said. Senators were told further by Sen. Dan Dimick (D-Rose-burg) that if they refused to grant the state police a five day week it would be a shameful act that would re main on their conscience for the remainder of their lives.
