Except for these exemptions, po tatoes shipped to chip manutac turers must generally meet the requirements of U.S. Number 2. Under the old regulation, a chip potato could be trimmed on or.e end, but the remainder had to be at least three quarters of the orig inal tuber. The measure concerning hollow heart was proposed by Walt Mer- rltt, who said that a grower near Redmond had planted some Kon nebecks under contract to a cnip manufacturer, but that he was un able to ship the potatoes because ot the hollow heart, or develop ment of a hollow space in the center of the tuber Committeemen said that the Kennebeck variety was extremely susceptible to hollow heart, but that because Oregon growers were probably not aware of this, the general relaxation in the regula tions should be made. However, they warned that they probably would not grant such an exemp tion next year. The other action was the result of a request by Jesse Payne, a representative of Alderm-inn Farms, large Willamette Valley chip potato grower. Payne told the committee that the Alderinonn organization could not opera e un der the existing three quarters rule because when they finished trimming a large potato, they would have less than three quar ters ol the original tuber, although the chunk would be well oer the minimum six ounces in weight. Payne asked that the commit tee allow the Alderman organiza tion to ship any chunk, regardless of how It had been trimmed, lor chip manufacturing, provided that the potato had been conditioned by heated storage. Several of the committeemen said that they felt this great a relaxation would permit the Aider mann organization to ship potatoes which growers not shipping to chip manufacturers would have to ship as culls. Committeeman Richard McDou gal of Tulelake suggested the pro posal which was finally adopted. The growers also heard a report by McDougal on the recent five slate potato committee meetings held in Pendloton In conjunction with the congressional larm hear ings and voted down a proposal to allow shipment of potatoes con forming to Oregon percentage grade. The proposal would have per mitted the shipment of potatoes which externally conformed to U S. Number 1 but had too high an internal discoloration rate. In ef fect, this would have permitted the shipment of some slightly smaller "brownie" potatoes than the current marketing regulations permit. Committeemen voted down the proposal because they felt that there were too many "brownies" being shipped under the current rules. The proposal was offered by Chairman Bryant Williams, who said that It would permit the man whose potatoes were equal in qual ity to those of a grower with larg er potatoes to ship, thus removing what he felt was an unfair pro vision. The browning is usually caused by leaf roll necrosis. CRITICAL CONDITION INDIANAPOLIS 'P President Emeritus Daniel J.

OREGON Tulelake Hearing (Continued from page 1) Wildlife Servico to the detriment of agriculture and the possibility of the homesteading of additional lands In the area. The charges followed the publi cation on last August 25 that re payment of construction costs would be levied against the water users of the Tulelake Irrigation District unless a contract wa3 completed oetween the irrigation district and the U.S. government. The publication was contrary to a verbal agreement entered into between the district and Assistant Secretary of the Interior Aundahl last May that no such action would be taken. Tulelake Irrigation Board Presi dent Sam Anderson outlined the history which led to the forma tion of a district in 1952. QUESTION RAISED Sherman Waldrip, landowner in the district, and James Stearns, Calif 01 ma Klamath River commis sioner, raised the question of pri ority rights for water for irrigation as opposed to water for wildlife and for land for homesteading as against land for game refuges. Waldrtn blasted the Fish' and Wildlife Service as a "closed cor poration" leasing lands to a "fav ored few." Howard Stoddard, engineer for the irrigation district, pointed out that tne district feels that home. steading of the land should be ac complished as expeditiously as pos tible for the benefit of the com munity. Paul Tschlrky, member of the district board and leader of the minority faction, blasted the con tract which he said "is based on contingencies and uncertainties." He said the present proposal ad vances lease lands to the detri ment of homesteaders. He was supported by Clyde Huffman, Georgo L. Powell, Wl H. Weitkamp ana Harry lsensee. , Although there Is no legislation before the U.S. Congress with ref erence to the proposed contract, the sub-committee preliminary hearing was held In Tulelake while members of the committee were in the area during a swing through the Western states.

Turncoats Plan Talks Against Russians PORTLAND Ml Three former ti,rn?nt soldiers start out Friday on their ambitious plans for a scries of antl-Communlst speecnes. to write a book, and to win 630,000 in back pay from the Army. To accomplish the last, they will have to get the Army to change their discharges from dishonorable to honorable. Their attorney said he would try. Whan the Army learns the true story of what happened to these men, the complexion of the situa tion will change," attorney George T. Davis, San Francisco, said. The three Lewis W. Griggs, 23, Jacksonville, Texas; William A. Cowart, 22, Dalton, Oa., and Otho G. Bell, 24, Hillsboro, Miss. are scheduled to make their first antl Communlst speech at the Wings of Healing Church in downtown Port land Friday night. Others are scheduled Saturday night and Sun day, with perhaps still more to fol low later. Dr. Thomas Wyatt, pastor of the large evangelical church, said def inite arrangements still are to be made for other speeches. He said some may be broadcast in the church's programs over Mutual and ABC networks. Wyatt met the three at San Fran cisco while the Army was intend ing to bring them to court martial. They were freed Tuesday, when the U. S. Supreme Court ruled they could not be brought to mili tary trial after being discharged. Captured by the Comrnfaalsts in Korea, they refused repMrlatlon when the fighting ended. Alter IB months In Red China, they changed their minds, asking re patriation. They returned to this country last July. Thev flew to Portland Thursday for the church speeches. Davis said he was paying for the trip to Portland. The three said they were coerced by the Reds Into staying in China. Asked about their statements In China that they willingly accepted communism, Cowart said, "No Wolf To Get Sanity Hearing PORTLAND I A psychiatric examination will be held next week for Victor Laurence Wolf, 45, who confessed killing attorney Kermit Smith last April and then tried to blame the plot on Smith's widow. Mrs. Marjorie Smith, 34, the widow, was Indicted on a first degree murder charge after Wolf told his story. She was acquitted by a circuit court jury last week. Defense attorneys said that if the doctors report Wolf Insane they will enter a plea of innocent by reason of Insanity. Wolf confessed killing Smith by rigging a bomb of 12 sticks of dynamite and wiring it to Smith's car. He made the confession In court and asked the court to de termine the degree of his guilt. A death sentence or life Imprison ment are , the possible penalties under that procedure. - Wolf- bad said he and Mrs. Smith were In love, and that they planned to go away to Alaska after killing Smith to get his estate. Mrs. Smith denied this, saying Wolf, occasional handyman at the Smith home, had made up the story.
