JSDA War Board Ends As New Councils Take Over The slBte USDA war board as gone out of existence to be tpluced by the state USDA ouncll, the change having been fficialiy made in Portland re ently at a meeting attended by knrpKpntntiveR of state and fed- ral agencies in the agricultural leld. ; Robert f B. Taylor. Adams . trmer and chairman of the state ikAA committee, was chosen Irrigation Quiz Urged, Stockman WASHINGTON, Dec. 8 MP) A fight for $3,000,000 to enable the reclamation bureau to inves tigate additional irrigation pro jects will be carried to the sen ate, Rep., Stockman (R-Ore.) lays. The house appropriations com mittee cut the requested sum to $500,000 and the house sustain ed the committee despite Stock man's efforts to increase the amount from the floor. Stockman cited a situation at The Dalles, Ore., in support of his demand for adequate inves i tigation funds. ; ., Centering about The Dalles, , Stockman said, is "one of the finest fruit growing sections of the United States." He asserted that it now faces ruin through no fault of the growers. ,.r Serious Droughts "Because of the serious droughts of the past few years," he explained, "many of the trees are dying and, unless im mediate action is taken to pro vide a supplemental water sup ply through irrigation, irrepar able damage will be done." He told the house that some growers have drilled' wells and installed their own sprinkling systems. This, he said, has been too costly and the underground water supply is not adequate to serve the whole district. : The people of The Dalles, he said, are, hoping to draw a sufficient supply from the Columbia river by pumping. Before this can be undertaken, he said, the rec lamation bureau is required by laMp-to make an investigation to determine whether the proposal is economically sound and feas ible from an engineering stand point, how much it would cost and whether the growers would be able to repay the costs. The investment, he asserted would be returned many times over. - chairman of the new council as he was head of the war board. Jack Horton, assistant regional director of the U. S. forest serv ice, is secretary. Councils Formed County councils will now be formed throughout the state, the purpose of both state and county groups being to coordinate the activities of all federal and state agencies serving agriculture. While the councils are formed under authority of the U, S. de partment of agriculture, other related agency representatives will be invited to join the Ore gon councils, such as the graz ing and reclamation service and Smith-Hughes instructors, it was decided at the Portland meeting. The chief difference in func tion between the .war boards and the new councils is that the former dealt primarily with war emergency activities, while the latter will be concerned with the whole peacetime programs of the agencies concerned reports W.' h. Teutsch, assistant director of ex tension, who represented that service at the organization meet ing.

With both pro duction and receipts at low ebb for the season, dealers in all markets had to cut distribution sharply and sell only to regular customers on a quota basis. Portland markets benefited somewhat from surplus army butter, though this has failed to bridge the gap. Nationally, stor age releases of government but ter have reached about 37 mil lion pounds, about a third of the prospective total releases. Production and receipts of butter continued to decline sharply as milk and cream de mands cut further into creamery butter output. Creameries can not compete with 75-80 cent but- terfat and in many instances have been forced to ship sweet cream in order to hold their pa trons. The Bureau of Agricul tural Economics estimated but ter production for the week md ed November 22 as 6 per cent below the previous week and 20 per cent below the corre sponding week last year. Cheese markets were very firm with buyers obtaining only partial needs. Milk and cream markets . were (tight, supplies short of needs, and markets ex tremely firm. Canned milk mar kets were firmer but supplies adequate at retail. Dry milk was in an extremely firm position with demands at ceiling prices not satisified. Strength continued to prevail in United States grain markets during the week. Cash wheat supplies remained tight and prices at ceiling levels even though there was some relief in the shortage of box cars. Prices of feed grains were also at ceil ing levels and offerings far be low trade needs. Shipments of corn to the northwest increased but were still far short of the demand. Demand for corn in the midwest was heavy as it is now the cheapest feed grain as a re sult of recent price advances on barley and grain sorghums. Cash wheat prices at Portland held steady. Bids were largely on a basis of $1.63 a bushel for soft white, western red, and or dinary hard red winter, but ask ing prices were at the ceiling of $1,631 a bushel. Exporters, mills, feeders, elevator operators, and the Commodity Credit corpora tion were all actively in the market.

Anotner tactor in tne market situation is the tendency of growers to hold their wheat until after the first of the year.
