SURVIVED LONG CHANCE Looking at
the Kajouras quads at their home in Dobbs
Ferry, N.Y., it is hard to believe that med
ical science gives quadruplets a one-in-7,000,000
chance of survivial. 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.'

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

Fees, Taxes in
Cerrier Hearings
Salem (UPI) - A bout $8,000
in additional fees and high.
way use taxes is involved in
July proceedings here against
four motor carriers.
These public utility com
missioner hearings have been
scheduled:
July 19, Timber Tractor
company of Springfield for
reassessment of highway use
taxes and fees in the amount
of $2,647.
July 20, action against

Japanese Farmer Wants To Install California Ideas
said.
"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

Honda said many other of

"But it is impossible to
master machinery if you for

gave birth to it," he added.
