ment has been made, the re
mainder of cash set aside for pay

stretches the bent wire straight
again, simply and quickly.
This is not . the first tie
straightener to be announced,
but it is the first to be made al

Ag Committees j
Hear Producer
On Milk Control
SALEM, Feb. 8 (P) Agricul-'

heard Lewis Judson, Salem pro
ducer, charge that the state milk
control law is a production lim

ing to encourage producers.
William Henry, manager of
the Dairy Cooperative associa
tion, said milk control brought
order out of the chaos that ex
isted several years ago when
farmers had big surpluses. -
Sen. Thomas R. Mahoney,
Portland, author of a bill to
abolish milk control, accused the

holding the hearing to stall his
bill. Another bill by Mahoney,

transfer milk control to the de

ommended by Governor Snell.
