Quick Look
At Best Buys
A continuing abundance of
broiler-fryers and ample sup
plies of west coast beef keep
these meat prices low. Plen
ty of cranberries, onions and
potatoes for accompanying
them. Many cuts of western
lamb are genuine bargains for
stewing and braising. If
you ve a ham in mind for
holiday entertaining, watch
for canned ham specials; so
easy to serve, carve. .
For menu change, consider
oysters in a stew, . scalloped
or fried. Dungeness crab
shrimp and lobster are reason
ably priced, luxury tasting
Fishsticks, halibut are good
buys.
Cranberries and dates are
featured items along with ap
ples, bananas, grapes, winter
pears, desert grapefruit, navel
oranges, tangerines. Pome
granates and chestnuts, too.
Vegetable bins suggest
beans, green and red cabbage
carrots, cauliflower, celery,
lettuce, onions, hard and soft
squash, sweet potatoes, green
peppers, turnips, rutabagas.
Keep dairy eggnog nandy
for instant hospitality; comes
in quarts, keeps beautifully.
Legislators
Cautious Over
Reorganization
Salem (UPD Oregon legisla
tors attending the fiscal con
ference here were generally
cautious in tneir first reaction
to Gov. Mark Hatfield's plan
for government reorganiza
tion.
Hatfield's proposal, reveal
ed Thursday, calls for sweep
ing consolidation of state
agencies including formation
of seven new departments and
making two major state of
fices appointive by the gover
nor instead of elective by the
people. The governor would
have broad new powers and
it would be the first step to
ward a cabinet system.
Duncan's Attitude
House Speaker Robert Dun
can, (D-Medford), said he has
not had a chance to study
the plan yet but he is on rec
ord in the past favoring reor
ganization for economy and
efficiency.
Sen. Ben Musa, (D-The
Dalles), said he takes an "ex
ceedingly dim view" of the
plan.
Rep. Grace O. Peck, (D-
Portland), said she Is "fear
ful" it gives loo much power
to the governor, "not just
Governor Hatfield, but any
governor." She said she disap
proves of his Idea of scattering
the state institutions to vari
ous new departments and pre
fers them under one authority
the Board of Control. Under
Hatfield's plan, the board
would be defunct.
Potts Sees Fight
Sen.- elect E. D. "Debbs"
Potts, (D-Grants Pass), said
there "definitely will be a
fight over it, as with anything
new."
Sen. Alfred Corbetl, (D-
Portland), said he favors
some parts" of the program
but will have to be convinced
on others.
Sen.- Francis Ziegler (R.-
Corvallis), said he agrees with
Hatfield that if the program
were submitted in one bill "it
would be defeated." Hatfield
intends to submit it as many
bills, figuring it will have a
belter chance of passage.
Another Republican, Rep.
Victor Atiych of Portland,
predicted that "at least part
of It" will get through the
1961 session. '
