both cellar-run and No. 2 potatoes. No. 2 potatoes in mixtures with
oeewees and culls may be diverted under specification A which
orovides a 70 cent per hundredweight diversion payment to
C . N 2 and No. 1. size B potatoes contained in
mixtures delivered at the plant Poundage of culls will be taken
pur-
100
by the plant as a simple
chase at 50 cents per
pounds.
Cellar-run potatoes are di
verted to starch and glucose
under specification "D" which
provides certain rates of pay
ment on 90 per cent of the to
tal weight delivered.
The payment rate to grow
ers for potatoes grading 50 to
5? per cent U. S. No. 1 ii $1.33
per cwt. For potatoes grading
60 to 69 per cent U. 5. No. 1

t.. takon hv the- nlant at 50
cents per cwt.

glucose diversion provide grow
ers the support prices quoted
for "bulk loaded potatoes at the
farmer's gate." These are $1.80
for No. l's and 65 centi for No.
I's.

working on provisions for haul
, tag to Hatfield.
Diversion to starch and glu
cose, diversion to livestock
feed, direct purchase of graded
potatoes in limited amounts for
state Institutioni and the school
lunch program, and provisions
for dumping potatoes that are
going bad comprise all the gov
ernment programs available for
disposal of potatoes at support

beinw exDanded by tne provi-
sion under which freight costs
--to other areas will be paid by
the government up to 20 per
cent- ner 100 required to be
paid for stock feed potatoes.
Feeders in other areas may
ahtain Klamath potatoes deliv
ered at their station for 20
cents per cwt. or the freight
charce ner cwt.. whichever is
greater.
It is anticipated that as many
as 100,000 sacks of Klamath
notatoes will be diverted to
tnrk fped. I
Growers are protected against
loss by deterioration. When po
tatoes offered to commodity
credit corporation are not tak
en within 20 days growers may
request inspection which will
serve as the basis for final set
tlement
Grain Rate
Talked Here
The current milling in transit
rate on grain was discussed, at
a meeting held Monday after
noon at the chamber of com
merce, with the object of oppos
ing its proposed cancellation.
The present rate on milling in
transit of grain shipped from
Idaho, via Klamath Falls to Cali
fornia is very favorable and
would be hard to re-establish
once it was cancelled, according
to interested concerns. Since
there is no milling here now the
railroad is considering cancelling
tne rate.
With the possibility that a mill
may again be in operation here.
it 19 advantageous to maintain
the present rate.

the industrial committee of the
chamber of commerce. George

By HAL BOYLE
ASPEN, Colo., Jan. 14 W
A Chicago Industrialist is suend
1ns $1,000,000 to reconvert this
decayed boom silver mining vil
lage into a Victorian "Aniens oi
the Rockies."
The idea of restoring Asucn
originated with Walter Paepcko,
board chairman of the container
Corporation of America, who
wants to create a type of com
munity he believes is all too rare
in this country.
"In America," he said, "people
work hard to earn their living in
their own home town, rush off
to Miami for their recreation and
turn to New York or Boston for
their culture.
"There are too few communi
ties which offer good opportuni
ties for combining work, play
and culture."
So Paepcke and fellow wealthy
enthusiasts set about rebuilding
-dilapidated Aspen into an ideal
town where peoplo could "live a
happier and more complete life.
"You can do that in a small
community," said Paepcke. "You
can chanae its skyline in eight
months. I am interested in a de
sign for living. Id like to see
this a place where one could live
as complete a life as is possible
in the best towns of England,
Austria or other European coun
tries." He and other stockholders in
the development corporation
including Sterling and Godfrey
Rockefeller have financed erec
tion of a $250,000 ski chair lift.
Other funds have gone into re
storing and preserving Aspen's
gingerbread architecture to keep
alive its Victorian flavor.
To get the cooperation of old
settlers the corporation's plan
ning staff offered to distribute
free paint in colors it desired.
in less tnan a year tne oio vil
lage has increased its 700 popula
tion to 1200 and Paepcke hopes
in time it will grow to a com
munity of four or five thousand

"But I'm interested sociologi
cally In providing more than a
nlace for movie slars to ski," said
Paepcke. "I would like to set
us avoid the tourist tripper who
litters the scenery with orango
iwiin0 and sardine cans."

The face of the old village has
bightcned during recent months
more than tne laces oi many oio
residents and atato pensioners
who look askance at tho Influx
of outlanders and the changes In
their historic town. They can't
quite see that a ski chair lift Is
progress.
They like to Joke about one
wealthy newcomer who went to
great expense reclaiming one pic
turesque old mansion that en
thralled him. Then he moved In
with his family. No one bothered
to tell him that the place in the
old days had been a notorious
house of 111 repute.
"He sure did put In a nicer

unreconstructed oiotimer.
