Rep, Ellsworth (R-Oie.) XAserted
today Una members 01 congress, In
cluding himself, "have lost confi
dence 111 the elllcK-ncy, ability, and
yes, even Hie Integrity, of many of
our government departments."
He suld In u stiitvmrnl that the
last straw was Ihe handling of the
sugar situation by the agriculture
department.
Recalling thai a year ago many
Oregon poultry producers liqui
dated their Hoi ks because of a feed
shortage, he said the government
later found there was no shipping
available to lake the grain lo Eu
rope and Ihe freeze order on wheal
was. lifted but not until farmers
In (he Northwest had lo.it heavily.
Krratle Action
The erratic action of Uie de
partment of agriculture regarding
wheut was brought to mind by the
fact that similar unexplutnable an
tics huve been going on lately wllh
respect to sugar," Ellsworth said.
"On June 7, for examule. Secretary
Anderson testified before the house
coin in 1 1 lee on bunking that removal
01 tugur controls al this time waa
not considered possible. Four days
later, he removed the controls.
"The wheat and sugar Illustra
tions are but samples of adminis
tration blunder with which we are
confronted constantly."

Phone Rate
Up Opposed
By Council
Klamath's city council today was
on record In protest of proposed In
creases In rates -by the Paetfle Tele
phone and Telegraph company.
Members of the council at last
night's meeting voted unanimously
to oppose the rate Increases which
have been asked of the state public
olllitles commissioner by the tele
phone company, and would amount
lo 12,2411,000. Councilman Landry
made the motion to have the elty
attorney draw up the protesting
letter prior to a hearing set for
July 7 at Halrm by the Pi t'.
The t2.249.00O figure constitutes
an upward revision of $609,000 over
the PT and T request of last month,
al which time the company asked
1. 550 ,000 The original request was
suspended by the commissioner
pending an Investigation and hear
ing, and the second request has also
been suspended for the same pur
pose. Not All I'P
Not all of the proposed revisions
would be upward, according to tie
changes In toll rates proposed py
the telephone company. Certain
long distance rates are to be re
duced. Tolls for distances over 176
miles would be reduced from 6 to
45 cents.
However, rates for distances up
to 133 miles would be generally In
creased. Service charges would be
Increased In most Instances, but
the bulk of this cost hike would be
born by businesses.
A revision would be made In the
relation of the day and the night
long distance rates. In many cases
day rates would be reduced and
nigr rates Increased.
