The quads, from left; Anthea, Paul, Leon and Michael, celebrate their first birthday last week. However, there was no birthday cake. Their mother, Mrs. Bess Kajouras, says she didn't have time to plan a special birthday treat because the babies keep her too busy.' (UPI Telephoto) Niiharu, Japan - ll'PIl - Ever since Ichie Honda returned to Japan from a three-year stint as a worker on a California farm he has been torn be tween the new ideas lie learn ed in the United States and the traditions of his village. The :)u-year-old Honda is referred to as one of the "new farmers" in his native Niiharu village. The California sun shine and plentitude of whole some food he enjoyed in Orange county, Calif., have made him look in village eyes like a "new" man. But the changes in Honda go much deeper than that. I really do not know how to explain my feelings," he MEDFORDsttliT RIBUNE SECTION D MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, JUNE 30.

"I have more than one mil lion yen ($2,780) now. I know that it would take a farmer here more than 20 years to have this much money. But $3,000 to an American work er is just a new automobile. A Japanese farmer working for the same length of time would rye a new bicycle. That's all he could afford. "But now I'm afraid of money. The idea of wealth frightens me." Honda, speaking with the drawl of the heavy Japanese rural dialect, said he was now working on a village levee construction piojcct as a day laborer. Wearing a khaki shirt and blue dungarees, he sat on the lacquered veranda of his thatch-roofed house in Gum ma Prefecture. The twittering of chickadees and the mur muring of streams could be distinctly heard in the clear mountain air. "Now I get only 350 yen (97 cents) for working eight hours a day," Honda said. "I was making much more than this per hour in the states." Honda rubbed his blistered hands. All Work on Farm He, with his elderly rar ents, three brothers and thret sisters, all work the farm's four acres containing a rice paddy, a mulberry field and land for vegetables, oats, wheat and other crops. The Hondas also own 10 acres of forest land and a few domestic animals - a work cow. a milking goat, two pigs, a dozen rabbits and 20 chick ens. The family consumes three-quarters of all they pro duce and sell the remainder to the city markets through the village co-operative asso ciation. Last year the fam ily income totalled 350,000 yen ($872). "Our low economic status can be greatly improved by introducing national thinking in our village life," Honda said. He said he planned to buy a garden tractor (cost: $500). "But before I get the ma chine I must step up the vol ume of work in two or three crops to lower expenses," he said. "We are now growing more than 20 different kinds of crops on this small piece of- land." To Buy Mors Land He said he will spend the rest ui his American savings for more farm land. "Naturally I want to get a television set, a refrigerator, a washing machine for my family and a motorcycle for myself," he said. "But I will have to wait until I profit from my 'modernized' farm O Illegal Parking Results in Ticket Ithaca, N.Y. - Mil.

Honda said many other of his fellow villagers have been mechanizing their farms. "But it is impossible to master machinery if you for get the great spirit which gave birth to it," he added. "We need a ronaissanct here," he concluded. , CHARGE NATO BUZZING Moscow -IUPD- The govern ment newspaper Izvestia charged Tuesday that NATO airplanes buzzed the Soviet atomic icebreaker Lenin dur ing its current Arctic cruise.
