The modern killing plant built at Merrill several years ago was not operated this year. Birds were processed at Salefil with a new slack-scald method which permits an earlier kill and speedier shipping to consumer points. The plant at Merrill was not equipped for this operation. The slack-scald method also cuts down cost of production and al lows birds to reach distant mar kets when prices are at their peak. Approximately 1400 hens and 800 toms wertj transported at one load. The hauling will be completed be fore Thanksgiving, according to Louis Stewart, assistant manager of the Kerr Gifford Division office at Merrill. The output of birds this year was the largest In the history of the plant which was acquired some years ago from Shuck Brothers. The birds were bousht as day- old poults from Willamette Valley turkey farms, brooded n the old Liskey plant at Malin and finished lor killing at Swan Lake.

One committee member. State Sen. Charles W. Bingner of La Grande, voted to approve the J- cent boost which would put the state tax at 8 cents gallon. The federal government adds a tax of 2 cents. H. H. Baldock, highway commis sion engineer, said it doesn't make any difference what federal high way program is set up, Oregon a 2-cent extra gaa tax would bring. To meet minimum needs for the next 15 years, he said, the state must spend 31 million dollars an nually on lis highways. Present available revenue runs to only 23 millions a year. A 2-cent gas tax would bring in the needed 8 mil lion, he said. Without this minimum program, Baldock told the committee, "road building In Oregon will soon lose the advantage gained by the 72 million dollar bond expenditure (of the past five years) and sup rapid ly behind In caring for current needs with current revenue. The critical highway deficiencies would become a serious handicap. , , ." He told the committee that 15 years ago the average motorist, through license and gas tax, paid S37 annually for the care of high ways and now pays only $17. Mo torists, he said, should be agree able to paying the extra money, which would put annual output at about $60 for license and tax, for the privilege of having better roads.
