In crop planting prospects have

government should change some
Of It farm pollclei to encourage
greater production and to con

v An Agriculture Department sur
vey last week indicated that crop
acreage will be smaller than last
Vear. despite Secretary Brannans
tall for larger plantings. Brannan
said the survey points to a 'ser
ious" livestock feed situation which
lr'llkely to result In smaller sup
plies In meat, eggs and milk.
Farm circles have been debat
ing possible steps to get a larger
acreage. Concern over declining
farm prices and labor shortages
were laid to be factors holding
uuwii planting plans.
Suggestions being discussed by
farm leaders In and out of govern
ment Include:
1. Higher farm nrlc aunnorts.
Most items have government price
aid supported at 90 per cent of
parity. Parity is a standard for
measuring farm nrices. declared
by law to be equally fair to far
mers and those who buy their pro
ducts.
Brannan is opposed to higher
supports. There is talk of pos
sible Congressional action boosting
support rates.
2. Removal of ceilings or threats

urging of a federal conciliator,
broke up Sunday to failure. Tenta

Douglas Sees
Waste In Asia
PHILADELPHIA (in Associate
Supreme Court Justice William O.
Douglas believes the United States
should concentrate on Keeping Mid
dle Eastern countries friendly to
the West "instead of wasting our
wealth in Asia."
' Douglas, sometimes mentioned as
possible democratic Presidential
candidate, told a Jewish Charities
Appeal Dinner Monday night:
"We are wasting our wealth in
Asia. We are not doing any more
(Here than just promoting Commu
nism. Why should we lose the Mid
dle East by default to Commu
nism?" He said, "Reactionary forces in
Asia control the little people and
the granaries which provide the
daily bread for these peoples."
"The little man," he added,
"throughout the world is keeping
alive the torch of liberty sparked
here in the United States."

WASHINGTON Wl The govern
ment Monday authorized major in
creases in production of passenger
cars, washing machines and other
consumer goods after July 1.
The Defense Production Adminis
tration said the Increases are be
ing made possible by a slight de
cline in allotment of metals to the
military.
This move apparently is based
on the government's program to
stretch out its mobilization effort
over a longer period of time.
Full quotas of metal will be pro
vided for the output of 1,050,000
autos for the July-September quar
ter, and DPA said prodcers may
make up to 1,150,000 cars if they
can stretch supplies sufficiently.
Elimination of all ceilings is being
considered.
DPA Administrator Manly Flei
schmann announced that more
metal also will be provided for the
building of schools hospitals, stores
and office buildings: fop mm-hmi
ship construction, and the erection
of industrial plants.

3. Extending price supports to
hogs. They have not been support
ed since 1950. Prices have dropped
to SO per cent of parity a level
at which many fnrmers say they
can not make ends meet. As n
consequence, production prospects i

4. Deferment of more farm youth

labor situation.
5. Reduction of exports of grain,
which now Is being shipped abroad
at near-record rules.
d. Halting sale of government
owned grain and holding it for pos
sible future emergencies.
The latter action might well
cause corn prices to go up con
siderably a development which
would be frowned upon by anil
inflation officials. As long as gov

ercises a stabilizing ei'fect on pric

be made is uncertain. But to In

creasingly active in recent years.
Grey and white clouds of smoke
and cinders were punctuated oc
casionally by giant tongues uf
flame licking the sky.
On the eastern slope, where an
earthquake several days ago lev
elled many houses and killed three
persons, the earth shook again at

violent explosions deep within the
volcano. ,
Many peasants, who scratch out

Harry Wlnrd. father of our own
Wlard park here in Klamath Falls,
Is the subject of an Interesting
.sketch In a recent Issue of the
Cody 'rimes, published In Cody,
Wyoming, long-time home of Buf
falo Bill. The Times says:
"A man who served on the Cody
police department many years ago
has built one of the best equipped
children's parks in the country.
The man is Harry L. Wiard, whose
enrly days were spent In the Cody
country with Buffalo Bill and his
contemporaries. The park is the
Hurry L. Wlard Memorial Park of
Kliimnth Fnlls, Ort-Kon.
"Mr. Wiard first came to the
Cody country In 1896 and served
otf and on as cook for Colonel
William F. Cody's hunting trips
and as policeman for Cody. He
went on to become one of the pio
neer residents of Klamath Falls.
"Several years ago. Mr. Wlnrd
donated five acres of land for a
park and then contributed three
Htid a half years of his own time
to lay four and a half acres ot
lawn, as well as conducting drives
to equip the park with play facil
ities, ine park is one 01 the best
equipped of its kind anywhere.
As a triblltn to his efforts the
city of Klamnth Falls recently ac
cepted tne private area as a cltv
park and assigned $12,000 for the
construction ot two tennis courts at
the site."
The city of Cody Is now engaged
m a campaign to raise $100,000 for
a community swimming pool. So
far, the Times savs. 455 families
Codv. not including business
firms, have contributed. The drive
is sponsored bv the Codv Council
for Youth, and so far collections for
the lund have amounted to $25,000.
Teachers and other employes of
the Cody schools have donated $750
for the pool. Of this amount, $200
has been in the form of a check
from the treasury of the Classroom
teachers' association and $55U m
the form of cash contributions from
teachers, janitors, maintenance
personnel and others.
At the riresent time. 200 high
school students are selling tickets
on a handsome stone table top and
a $400 Navajo rug which the Cody
Lions club Is contributing to the
swimming pool benefit. The table
top represents 1,000 hours of work
by Pete Peterson of near Codv. It
la made from natural rocks of the
uoiy country.
