OREGON PAGE TWO KIWIS TOLD I r IE RIGA FACES BIG PROBLEMS It will take the greatest gen eration In America's history to iolve the problemi now con fronting this country, Phil Hitch cock of Sisters, lieutenant gov ernor of Kiwanis International, told members of the local club at their meeting Thursday noon. Hitchcock reviewed the re cent convention of Kiwanis In ternational and chose as the th.m. nf hia talk here a SDeech made to that convention by Texas' famed congressman, nav ton Summers. The great immediate problem confronting Americans, Hitch cock said, is Hitler. That must be disposed of, first. But if America is to go on from there, and achieve its greatest destiny, it must stop the centralization of power in Washington and re turn its government to the peo ple. Hitchcock was introduced by Ted Medford. New members of the Kiwanis club introduced at the Thurs day meeting were Bud Kerr, manager of Lost River dairy, and George Balch of Foulgers, a former president of the Baker Kiwanis club.

He has two bullet wounds throush his chest, and one of the bullets is lodged in his right arm. District Attorney L. Orth Sise- more will have charge of the prosecution of Fisher in state court. Spud Hearing In Favor of Market Plan (Continued from Page One) kets, but that if deemed advis able it could be used In regula tion of grades better than culls, Major A. D. Hadley of the solicitors office presided. Counties involved are Klanv ath, Siskiyou and Modoc coun- ties, forming the Klamath basin potato area, and Crook and Deschutes counties, forming the Deschutes valley area. First witness called was Coun ty Agent C. A. Henderson, who sketched the history of the po tato Industry in the basin and gave a statistical picture of basin production. He showed the acreage growth from 230 In 1916 to 19,515 in 1940; average yield from 101.4 bushels per acre in 1925 to 420 bushels in 1940; shipment from 135 in 1925 to 9835 in 1940; total value to growers from $3515 in 1916 to $2,959,257 in 1940. His fig ures showed the percentage of U. S. No. 1 potatoes at 75 per cent in 1925; this advanced to 80 per cent in some years, and dropped to 70 per cent in 1940. Henderson indicated his belief that sentiment in the area favors a marketing agreement. Questioned by G. W. Gannaway, assistant marketing specialist, he said that the decline of No. 1 potatoes might have something to do with the desire for such an agreement. E. L. Woods, Crook county agent, speaking for both Crook and Deschutes counties, said that 4000 acres of last year rep . resented the Deschutes potato land, and said that shipments totaled 960 cars. Portland and the Willamette valley are the chief markets. The average yield was given at 250 bushels per acre. He said that further irrigation development, such as completion of the North unit, may add to Deschutes potato acreage and production. Siskiyou Speaker M;i V.

When asked by the examiners if he considered the request for a marketing agreement likely to aid the income from potatoes, .. Gordoy of Sacramento, member of the bureau of markets, Cali fornia state department of agri culture, replied "in California we find whenever a request is received from grower groups the request is generally a response to a specific need." Hyslop Here G. R. Hyslop, head of the bu reau of plant industry of Oregon State college and familiar with conditions in the Klamath basin, was questioned byathe examin ers. He stated the Yakima pro duction area was this area's only major competition outside the state, and felt conditions were so "closely identical" and the markets were the same that the five counties in question should work together on the program. When Clifford L. Smith ol Cor- vallis, assistant marketing spec ialist from Oregon State college, was called to the stand he re peated the statement of Profes sor Hyslop that low grade pota toes detracted from the total grower income, and further stat ed he felt the agreement would only be effective if other areas would "do the same. Next to be questioned was D. B. DeLoach. associate econo mist, department of agriculture at OSC, and It was his findings on marketing and consumption which interested the growers at tending the meeting. DeLoach said the grade predominating in the market varied according to the market and pointed out the Portland market sold between 65 and 80 per cent No. 1 pota toes; Willamette valley, 60 per cent No. 2's, and the San Fran cisco market. 85 per cent No. l's. Professor Hyslop asked De Loach if there was a tendency to reDackage No. Z s to No. i s, ana DeLoach said there was evidence of this in various markets where notatoes were repacked and re- tabled into so-called combination grades, or certain percentage of No. l's and a certain percentage of No. 2'S. Henry Semon, prominent Klamath county potato grower, asked the examiners if this agreement, if passed, would su nercede any state law now in ex istence and quoted figures from the present state law. Major Hadley replied "that would de pend on the present state law" but that "the agreement would probably be the controlling law but would not conflict witn ex isting state requirements."
