Klamath- potato growers are
(tolng to get a boost In the base
celling price set on their products,
but it's not going to be Ihe 78
rent increase they asked for ear
lier. Klamath grower Scott Warren,
who Is chairman of the Oregon
Potato Commission, arrived home
Saturday from Washington, said
yesterday he had been assured by
OPS officials that local potato
prices would be upped to the pres
ent Idaho price. '
That means that the base price
of $3.85 (plus 10 cents storage for
February) may be ' upped -to
Idaho's base price of. $3.85 (plus
the dime). Idaho had been allowed
a 20-centg more per hundred
pounds than the rest of the West
ern states beoause of a poor crop,
Warren said the OPS should an
nounce the boost tomorrow or Wed
. nesday, If they do allow It. It will
apply to ten Western states on, late
potatoes. t-

Utah Region
Whipped By
Winds, Snow
By The Associated Press
Three storms which brought the
country a wide variety of weather
over the week-end converged Mon
day, boding high winds and rain
for New England..
One had whipped up a blizzard
at Colton, Utah, Saturday that took
three lives, and blanketed the cen
ter of the continent with rain, light
snow and freezing drizzle as It
moved east. .
A second sucked dust thousands
of feet into the air over much of
Texas before settling It with rain,
and moved on over Arkansas Into
Tennessee. .
A third, with winds ranging up
to 75 miles an hour, lashed the
Atlantic coast and drove a 2,600
ton freighter aground off Cape Hat
teras, N. C, as it took a northeast
ward course paralleling the sea
board. The result was rain over the
Middle Mississippi and Ohio Val
leys. Southern and Eastern Great
Lakes region, and most of the Mid
dle and North Atlantic states.
The blizzard near Colton, Utah,
Saturday stalled more than a dozen
automobiles and when highway
crews reached them Sunday, three
occupants of one buried car were
dead of carbon monoxide poison
ing. -
Great clouds of red dust, swept
up from drought stricken plains of
Western Texas, blotted out the sun
Sunday. The; dust cut visibility to
three-quarters ol a mile in eastern
parts of the state before rain
washed It away.
Twenty six crewmen of the
stranded Panamanian freighter

after the ship ran onto a sandbar

off Cape Hatteras. They reached

xhe situation was similar at

"This must be given much con

on which one of these to ask for."
Warren commended Oregon's
Congressional delegation during
the protest meetings, especially
Sen. Wayne L. Morse, who he said
presented the Industry's case, got
the appointments with- the right
people, and made a speech from
the Senate floor.
"When we left we had done all
that's possible at the present
time."
The potato industry, he said, has
been placed in a poor position In
the East because, of unfavorable
publicity.'
"The OPS has the potato Indus
try, in a chaotic state, which suits
their purposes." He said Eastern
newspapers have featured the po
tato shortage and blackmarketing
as ' complete Justification for .OPS

He said there will undoubtedly be
a heavy force of OPS enforcement
officials oh the road soon.
"There appears to be no relief
In sight for the present crop to

of Pend O Reule Lake In Idaho for

Welker' said he had learned that

he is asking the Navy to pick some
other lake which "doesn't include
the greatest trout supply in Amer

Legislature
Eyed For
Funds Meet
SALEM fP) Deputy State Trea
surer Fred Paulus advocated Mon
day a special session ot the Oregon
legislature to save the state from
possible financial disaster.
Talking to the legislature's in
terim tax committee, he said a
big tax bill could be passed at the
special session and the bill then
could be referred to the people at
the general election next Novem
ber. ,
ASSURANCE
That way,' Paulus said the 1953
legislature would be assured of
enough money to operate for the
following two years.
Sen. Dean H. Walker, Indepen
dence, senate tax committee chair
man, said "what we fear is that
the 1953 legislature might pass a
tax bill, and then It woulu be re
ferred by petition to the general
election in 1954. If that occurred,
we would have to operate without
funds during the 1953-55 blennium."
In Oregon, the legislature can't
put an emergency clause on a
tax - bill. This fact leaves all tax
bills wide open to the referendum.
Paulus told the committee that
the state might have to go on a
warrant basis because it won't
have enough revenue in 1953, unless
new tar sources are found.
CREDIT CUT
This poor financial situation,
Paulus said, has caused bond
buyers to reduce Oregon's credit
rating to that of the lowest group
of states. ,
- ' The reduction ' in credit rating
means that- the- statexwill- have to
pay mox Interest on its, bonds.
