IIST Signs Compromise
Farm Bill; Mum About
Defeated Brannan Idea
WA8HINOTON. Nor. 1 Wv-Th compromise (arm bill of tht gist
miiH became Iht U of tht Und today for at least ont production
President Truman put nil slgneture on the measure late yesterday.
R thereby teased th so-called Aisen law of th republicans' Oth
wilim Into th wastebesset brforc It had a chanr to 10 Into effect.
But th new meaaure which permit continuation of farm price
upooru at or near wartime lercls
-was not necessarily assured of a
long lift span.
To th surprise of aom political
and farm circle, th preaidrnt
made no statement In connection
With th alcning.
Peraom In the quarter had ex
pected him to uc th occasion to
ay tn effect that th new law U
bitter than th OOP measure, but
that h (tin wanted he so-called
Brannan plan.
Those cloa to Secretary of Api
culture Brannan said they felt sure
Truman Is as much In faror of
th Brannan proposal as ever. Th
president has gtiren It warm en
dorsement on sereral occasions.
"If there has been any chance
In the White House attitude, we
haven't been Informed these offi
cials said. "We feel certain that we
would hare been told If there were.
8UU Dissatisfied
A "no chance" attitude would
mean that Truman is still intent
on making th Brannan plan a
major issue in next year's congres
sional campaigns for both the farm
and consumer rote.
Th new law is not too far from
price support recommendations of
th Brannan proposal. It would per
mit price supports more nearly in
nn with the Brannan proposal
than would th Aiken law.
The big point of difference is the
way th various measures would
handle surpluses of perishable prod
ucts, chiefly meats, dairy and poul
try products, fruits and vegetables.
Tn Brannan plan would allow
prices of these products to seek
their natural levels. If prices fell
below a pre-determlned "fair level
for producers, the latter would get
government payments making up
th difference.
Th new law like the Aiken
. measure does not permit this. In
stead tt requires the government
to maintain prices at support levels
by removing surpluses from the
market by means of government
purchase or loans to producers.
Trie Break'
Both Truman and his secretary
of agriculture have said th Bran
nan plan would give consumers a
"price break' on surpluses which '
they cannot get under the present '
method.
Brannan aides said they expect '
th new law like the one It sup
plants to provide "silent" argu
ments for the Brannan plan next
year. - .
They exDlained that the new lavr
Is expected to result in aocumula-
tion of hundreds of millions of dol
lars worth of agricultural surpluses
In government hands.
The government already is fore-

I because of the coal strike. The East
i era roads had halted service trains
In a coal conservation plan.
I Empties moving out of the Mid

LAKEVIEW A subcommittee of
th house committee on public lands
will hold a hearing In AKuraa com
mencing November g In connection
with th proposal of the forest serv
ice to cut grating permits on th
Modoc national forest on the r'dt
between the Ooos last and Sur
prise valleys, according (o an
nouncement of Rep. Clair Engl of
California. The order recently cir
culated by th Alturas offlc of th
Modoc forest calls tor cuts ranging
from I to (1 per cent. All of th
permit In question hsve heretofore
been cut approximately SO per cent
In past years.
Protest
According to the protest filed by
the stockmen, the Modoc forest Is
the No. 1 producer of grass in the
entire sut of California, and I
currently selling more grass thsn
timber: yet th forest service does
not have a rang improvement pro
gram under way tn the county nor
does tt have plans for the sres from
which stock is to be excluded. Th
stockmen contend thst a "do noth
ing policy in an area where there
hat been upwards of 110 ono per
year available for range Improve
ments a fieure the stockmen will
match if the facta require is. a in-
best answer to the proposed cuts.
The stockmen have currently
been circulating in Modoc county

forest tn Lake county, the past four

THIS business about trick and treat
on Halloween, new sine I vsi

streets in drove thes days. One
iorai nousewue was met at the door
last night by a graduated trio lined
up on the step. In a courteous but
hurried vole the oldest said "I m
sorry but w don't hav time lo

hospitality of the house but ren
dered maid service to the small
damsel In distress. Seems Ilk Ihry

JJ.OW thst Klamath Falls seems to
b going ahead with civic work
and progress is on every hand, why
not do something about our horse
and buggy traffic? Main street
travel, by car, is probably as slow
ment as th Fremont forest If the

Th stockmen hav offered a re

U not sloaer hsre than In any
other town ou th coast. Whn you
enter on end of Main and at
tempt to mak It through any time
during fairly heavy trafflo you
ci rep and crawl, Jerk and Jar, start
and stop until by Iht Unit you reach
your destination you aren't In any
fit than to do anything.
It seems obvious that a simple
remedy Is at least In sight to al
leviate this situation. Why not ian
the Intersections for right hand
turns and straight through trafllc?
About half th driver com lo an
Intersection with a right hand turn
ir mind. But. Instead of getting
over In th right hand Ian or aid
ol th street they split th traffic
lanes, then swing across th half
Ian to th right In making a turn.
Cars behind his urban road hog
art tied up until the or make it's
ungainly swing and clears th
street.
Stop and go lights are aet at It
second Intervals. Th walk and wait
signal use up the first seven sec
onds of this lime lesvlng only about
eight seconds for a car to turn. It
Uses a driver nearly that to nego
tiate a full turn. Result: on car
get through the lights In tarh 11
second period. That Is not always
true, of course. Msny times traffic
la smooth and speedy. But It Is th
times you don't hit it right that
makes you mad. If even th last M
feet of each block were to be mark
ed with yellow lines for lanes, so
that drivers wanting to mak a
right hand turn would be in th
proper spot and thus clear th
street for through travel It would
teem that would aav a lot lit

old Idea of aliml lane uaitic on
city streets must b discarded. It
Just won't carry th burden of tral-

that you can park on main street
anymore. You can't. Hut w ran at

and move out of th hltrhrack days.
