County Growers of
Talent Alfalfa Are
Urged to Grow More
Jackson county growers of
Talent alfalfa seed last night
were urged to grow as much
as they can (or shipment to
Greece.
Wallace Rice, manager of
Joscphine Growers Co-op, ,
told area farmers that Greece
will take all of the seed they
can produce.
A recent trip to Greece
with Dr. Ritchie Cowan, OSU
agronomist, helped with fu
ture dealings with the Greek
ministry of agriculture. Rice
told farmers attending the
Jackson co unty agriculture
committee meeting in the ex
tension service auditorium.
Amount of Shipment
Local seed growers hope to
ship 500.000 to 560,000 pounds
of alfalfa seed this year and
up to 800,000 pounds by 1963.
Grceg agricultural officials
are impressed with the high
quality and purity of the seed
shipments which more than
meet international trade
agreement standards. Rice
said. The Greeks are more
quality-conscious than price
conscious after receiving some
inferior corn at a low price.
Rice noted.

State Board of
Control Bypasses
Emergency Board
Salem - HIP!) - The State
Board of Control today de
liberately bypassed the State
Emergency board in a prison
fence project, and challenged
it to bring a lawsuit to test
its authority to approve proj
ects. The Board of Control is
made up of Gov. Mark Hat
field, Secretary of State How
ell Appling Jr and State
Treasurer Howard C. Belton,
all Republicans.
Emergency Requests i
The Emergency Board is a
group of legislators who meet
between sessions to act on
emergency requests for mon
ey from state agencies.
The prison fence project is
not an emergency, and t)ie-
$12,485 for it is included in
a Jump sum appropriation
made by the 1961 legislature
to the Board ,Pf Control for
construction at institutions.
Ordinarily, all Board of
Control projects go before the
emergency board. .Since the
1961 legislature, the emergen
cy board has assumed wider
powers in this field.
Hatfield and the other two
control board members have
complained about this before,
declaring that the emergency
board is infringing on admin
istration. Controlled by Democrats
The Emergency Board is
headed by Senate President
Harry B o 1 v i n (D-Klamath
Falls) a n d is controlled by
Democrats.
In Klamath Falls, Boivin
said he was somewhat shock
ed at the Board of Control's
action, and declared that the
emergency board does not
step on the toes of state
agencies.
"The Board of Control,"
Boivin said, "evidently has a
new theme song - 'don't fence
me in'."
"If the Board of Control ig
nores us. I don't see how we
I can reach them," Boivin said,
' adding: "But of course we do
appropriate money."
Canadian Band to

Divided Into Categories
The new allowable cut is
divided into several cate
gories, representing different
objectives of management of
resources. Brown said.
The basic harvest, cut from
areas which are primarily
timber production, has been
set at 158 million board feet.
The cut from restricted areas
will be 10 million board feet,
and the cut from thinning of
dense stands of timber less
than 70 years old will be 1
million board feet, Brown
Said.
Tentative cuts of 2.400
cords of lodgepole pine and
9 million board feet of dead
material salvage also have
been calculated.
The new total green cut
of 169 million board feet rep
resents a 25 per cent increase
over the present 135 million
board feet allowable cut.
Basic Harvest
The basic harvest, or 158
million board feet, must come
from areas described in the
Multiple Use plan as timber
production areas, while the re
stricted area cut will be care
fully removed from areas
classed as recreation, scenic,
highway protection or water
shed management, he said.
Material taken from the re
stricted management areas
will be on a natural rotation
basis, which means that trees
will be cut at the rate they
would normally die. Purpose
htiof this method of cutting
is to insure the safety of peo
ple using the areas, to reduce
fire hazard, to maintain a
pleasing view unobstructed
by dead trees, and to keep
the timber stand healthy.
The thinning cut and lodge
pole pine cut depend on de
velopment of markets for this
material. Brown said. The
cuts will be designed to in
crease growth and quality of
the final harvest cut.
Brown said the timber sale
program for the fiscal year
starting July 1 will be fi
nanced on the basis of the
new allowable cut so the
added timber will be avail
able to the lumber industry
in the coming year.
Hearing Set on

velopment pattern for the

JFK Meets With
Task Force to
Explore Problem
Session Described
As 'Most Helpful'
Washington -it'Pr Presi-'
dent Kennedy's business task
force has agreed to try to
find ways of shutting off the
foreign drain on U.S. gold.
Kennedy held a meeting
with the task force, headed
by U.S. Steel board Chairman
Roger Blougli, tor an nour
Monday. The White House
said the meeting was most
helpful."
White House press secre
tary Pierre Salinger said the
task force agreed to examine
steps the government is tak
ing to stem the flow of Amer-.
ican dollars abroad. The
businessmen will make sug
gestions on the subject to
Kennedy when they feel it
would be "helpful or pertin
ent," Salinger said.
Cooperation 'Most Important'
Kennedy, Salinger said,
feels the cooperation of the
task force "is most impor
tant, the kind of cooperation
that can be most helpful in
business and government."
The task force was set up
by Blough several weeks ago
at Kennedy's suggestion after
Blough asked how businers
leaders could help economic
growth.
It was done shortly after
the President turned on the
steel industry for its plan
ned price increase.
Kennedy also met with his
cabinet Monday after return
ing frum Yale, where he
made a commencement ad
dress strongly urging an ac
cord between business and
government.
Cautiously Optimistic
Government financial ex
perts are cautiously optimis
tic that the dollar drain can
be cut off by 19H4. The prob
1 1cm has plagued the nation
I since 1958. and helped trlg-
gcr a "gold rush" on the
(Treasury In- late 1960.
1 In 1961, the net loss of dol-
lars-the balance of payments
deficit - dropped to $2.5 bil
lion after exceeding $3 bil
lion during the, three prev
ious years.
From January through
May of this year, dollar loss
es totaled about $650 mil
lion, suggesting an annual
rate of $1.5 billion. But ex
perts said the January-May
rate is deceptively low.
Three Convicts
Escape Alcafraz
San Francisco-IUPP - Three
bank robbers used sharpened
spoons to pry their way out
of their Alcatraz Prison cells
during the night, touching off
an intensive search today of
San Francisco Bay and its
shoreline.
If the three succeeded In
their attempt, they would be
the first convicts known to
escape the "Rock" since it be
came a maximum security fed
eral penitentiary In 1934.
Army, Coast Guard, FBI
police, sheriff's - and harbor
patrol units joined guards in
the search for the three short
ly after they were discovered
missing from their bunks at
6 a.m. PDT. .
' A Coast Guard helicopter
pilot caused a (lurry of excit- -ment
about 10 a.m: when he
reported "he had sighted a
eix by six foot wooden pallet
on the southwest corner of
Angel Island, the point near-.
est to Alcatraz In San Fran
cisco Bay. The pallet was of
the type used by longshore
men to load cargo.
"We have men over there
and are investigating," an FBI
spokesman said.
