PA POLICY ON
OREGON
ILK
The Oregon milk situation as
affected by OPA policy is a
"Datchwork of misKuided appli
cation of government author
ity, it was declared here Dy
E. L. Peterson, head of the state
department of agriculture, in a
talk at the annual Kiwanu farm
ers' night dinner held at the
Willard hotel Thursday evening.
Peterson emphasized the need
of state-federal cooperation on
agricultural matters, and point
cd'y remarked that where that
cooperation has failed to develop
"it was not the fault of the
states."
He reviewed the effort made
by the Oregon department to
get an adjustment if milk prices
through the OPA. Finally, he
said, subsidies were established
which "compel the American
people to pay less than a fair
price."
The state department head
taid that the state-federal in
spection service, which is active
in this area in the inspection
of potatoes, is an example of
successful cooperation between
state and federal agencies.
Peterson discussed the im
portance of agriculture in the
economy of the state and na
tion and pointed out that this
vast industry is generally "taken
for granted." In commenting on
the future of agriculture, he em
phasized the importance of
chemistry in developing new
uses for agricultural products.
In his discussion of national
agricultural policies, he proposed
that the proper distribution of
profit should be the goal, and
that this is a greater problem
than the distribution of goods.
Fred Peterson, county school
superintendent and head of the
Kiwanis agricultural committee,
presided at the dinner. Ed
Geary, local farmer and a mem
ber of the state board of agricul
ture, was a special guest, as was
County Judge U. E. Reeder.
About 100 Kiwanians and farm
er, guests attended.
Without Human
Father
How can a babe be born with
out a human father? The angel
Gabriel had the answer and he
was sent from heaven to tell
the Virgin Mary. She was to
bring forth a son and there was
to be no human father.
How could such a thing be?
The angel had the answer
"The Holy Spirit shall come up
on you and the power of the
Highest shall overshadow you,
therefore, the offspring that
shall be born of you shall be
called the Son of God." Just as
the prophet of old had fore
told "Behold, a virgin shall
conceive and shall bring forth
a son and shall call his name
IMMANTJEL." GOD WITH
US. So it was that God took a
human body and became the
Son of Man. So he related him
self to every last one of us.
His Name
The Lord Jesus Christ is His
name. THE LORD For after
He had suffered for our sins and
ascended back to glory. He took
over again the lordship of the
universe. JESUS His name as
Saviour. CHRIST The title
that looks to His return when
He is to rule from pole to pole
and from shore to shore.
, His love for you brought it
an about f or God so loved
you that he gave his only be-
goiien son tnat if you believe
on Him, you should not perish
but have eternal life." See John
3:16. .
Christ breaks the power of
cancelled sin and sets the sin
ner free. He saves from the
Penalty and Power of sin and
from the Pains of eternal woe
The saved have a house not
made with hands,' eternal in the
heavens. Today, right now. fol

BOOK ASKED
TO DECREASE
LOAD NG
Klamath potato growers have
been asked to voluntarily de
crease spud loadings in order
that armed forces, given a prior
ity recently by the war food ad
ministration, can take offerings
in a more orderly manner.
Recent tendencies have been
for shippers to increase loadings
rather than decrease them, ac
cording to John F. Lacy, Klam
ath representative of the WFA,
who appealed for the curtailed
loadings, except those on con
tracts in effect.
For the next two weeks, Lacey
said, shippers should not load in
excess of an average of 65 cars
per day.. This will conserve the
supply now available for the
armed forces and will prevent a
shortage of potatoes when they
are direly needed.
Seriousness of the situation
was expressed by Lacey when he
stated that he believed that all
potato growers and shippers
would be willing to cooperate in
the program.
The freeze order on potato
shipping became effective, De
cember 11, when growers in des
ignated areas were told they
must offer spuds to government
procurement agencies before
making other deliveries. WFA
permits must be obtained before
any shipments are sent out of the
areas.
Western areas affected by the
new restrictions, and persons
from whom shipping permits
may be obtained, were listed as
follows:
Area 1 All counties in Idaho
south of Idaho county, plus Mal
heur county. Ore. Permits ob
tainable from Sherman L. Pobst,
care of army procurement cen
ter, 205 National Bank building,
Idaho Falls, Ida.
Area 2 Modoc and Siskiyou
counties, California; Klamath
Crook and Deschutes counties.
Ore. Permits obtainable from
John F. Lacey, Klamath Falls,
Ore., telephone 8461.
Radio Program Pays
Tribute to Bush
A radio program paying trib
ute to Asahel Bush, Associated

tivities from the time he left
the United States, just a year
to the day of his death, until
the Japanese attack which took
the lives of three newsmen as
they were quartered in the city
of Tacloban. Bush was former

TALKS AT DINNER
William L, Finley, OrcKon
naturalist, was the principal
speaker at thu annual dflck and
goose dinner of the Kliininth
chapter of the lztwk Walton
league, held Friday night at tho
Wi-Ne-Ma hotel,
Finlcy discussed conservation
problems and emphasized the
need for adequate federal legis
lation to protect fish and game.
After his talk he presented col
ored slides of wlldlifo pictures
he has tt.kcn in various parts of
the west.
Among special guests at the
dinner were Ted Conn, Lake
view, and Ken Deninan, Med
ford, members of the state game
commission, who discussed game
commission work and relations
of the commission and sports
men's organizations.
Conn said Unit the gama com
mission finds it difficult at times
to set fall hunting seasons at the
June meetings of tho commis
sion as required by law. He said
that legislation to permit thu
commission to set seasons at a
later date will probably be In
troduced at the 1045 session of
the legislature.
About 60 attended the meet
ing, with John Ebingcr, presi
dent, acting as toastmaster.
Other special guests from
Portland and other narts of Ore
gon were reeognized by the offi

Every counterfeit gasoline
coupon accepted ty a service sta'
tion and subsequently used to
buy gasoline from its supplier
will be charged back against tho
inventory of that station, bol
Stern, OPA enforcement attor
ney, explained today.
"Although only a. few coun
terfeit coupons have! been found
in the Portland OPA district,
this debiting procedure is at the
heart of the attack on the gaso
line blacK market, : fctcrn em
phasized. "If the j coupons a
dealer turns over to) his supplier
turn out to bo coupterfeit, out
of date, or not properly en
dorsed, he is required to surren
der valid coupons received from
other sales to make good on the
invalid ones."
Under a new "ba 1 out" relief
plan, a dealer who accepts coun
terfeits in good faith, however,
may get back a limited percent
age of the gasoline he has last by
replacing tho counterfieits with
valid coupons, Stern added.

Private builders were remind
ed today that building prior
ities are available in Klamath
Falls under certain wnrtimu re
strictions. Fred Cuthbert, of tho Nation
al Housing agency ut Portland,
suld that restrictions require
that priorities bo obtained for
all dwelling unit construction,
now or converted. A total of
$200 worth of hired labor and
new material, including prefer
ence and non-preference muter-
t,,l titno l,n nvnmwlt'd fill- the
repair or maintenance of dwel
ling units without u priority,
Cuthbert made this .state
ment: "It appears that recent
news dispatches regarding re
laxations in the use of building
materials have conveyed the Im
pression that anyone may now
build residential construction."
In localities where priority
quotas have been established
and in which unused priorities
remain available builders may
construct for rent or sale to im
migrant war workers, or If
necessary they may build their
own homes. Such building Is
limited by tho N11A-WPU regu
lations governing rates, prices,
mid material limitations.
The recent relaxations on
building restrictions apply only
to such housing as is authorized
within tho priority quotas for
various localities III the state
and in no way authorizes gen
eral housing construction. Indi
