' 1 Oregon Wheatman Tells Farm Problem Status ' A full review of the activities of the Oregon Wheat Commission was given at a commission meet ing held Monday in Klamath Falls. It was the first Wheal Commis sion meeting held in Klamath Falls since iLs foundation in 1947 as the result of an act of the Leg islature. Commissioners said that although Klamath Falls is not a wheat center, the meeting was held here because the commission might be able to aid non-wheat farmers In some of their problems. Also, they said, they were at tempting to present the program of the commission to farmers in all parts of the state so that they "would know what we are trying to accomplish with our work." The commission heard a report by Jack Smith of Condon, who has been representing the Oregon wneat League in wasnington, on the curent status of farm legis lation. 8mith said that he could "sum marise all I have to offer In two words It's snafued He said that the idea of domestic parity on wheat, sometimes called the "two price system." is gain- in? support among lawmakers, and predicted that it would be passet'. Under this scheme, a parity price would be guaranteed for wheat sold for human consump tion in the United States, but that wheat sold for non-human con sumption, or sold for export out of the continental United States, would be support-free. He said that the support rate for support wheat would probably be 90 per cent or a little less. Smith said that the proposed "soil bank" scheme has not yet been sufficiently developed by the lawmakers to determine what form It would take, and warned growers "not to expect any help thin year" from the plsn. One of the major places where n"n-what growers have been aid ed by the work of a commission sponsored aienry.

Hon. wnich. he said, was organised through the Initiative of the Wheat Commission. This group has fought freight rate increases by the railroads, and has, by arranging reductions and delaying or holding down in creases, saved Oregon wheat grow ers about $80,C3o per year since Us foundation, Weatherford said. He said that the amount equals about one half cent per bushel, or the amount of the wheat tax paid to the commission by growers. Because rates are for all grains, rather than for wheat alone, this saving has been passed on to bar ley and other grain producers, Weallierford said. He added that, due to a volun tary reduction of grain freight rates to the eastern seaboard and the southeast, new markets have been opened for Pacific Northwest grain'. A new commercial product now available In the Northwest, Ala. produced by the Fisher Flouring Mills, made from bulgor wheat was the topic of a report by Com missloner Ralph McEwen Jr., who said that It Is being marketed as a means of testing public accept ance, samples of the product, whlcii McEwen said could be used as a breakfast cereal, stuffing, m-et-loaf "stretcher" and several other uses, were served at the luncheoi:. Weatherford also reported on the development of the Northwest wheat statistics project, designed to develop marketing statistics on wheat grown In the Northwest. He said that the state of Washington and the U.S. Department of Ag riculture are cooperating in the project, and that a preliminary re port will be Issued late this year. Other projects discussed were the 4-H Cake Baking Contest, the Western Wheat Quality Laboratory, the analysis of artificial weather modification experiments, partici pation In exhibits, fairs and dis plays, research on smut, a wheat dljease. research on the use of grain derivatives, primarily alco hol, as motor fuel additives, the Agricultural Research Foundation, cattle feeding experiments and the various public information and promotional campaigns. As a market builder, the Com mission is aiding in the financing of a program similar to the U.S. "Home Extension" programs at the Women's Christian College at Madras, India. In this program, according to Commission Admini strator II. B. Taylor, trained na tive demonstrators teach village housewives- how to prepare wheat foods with native utensils. Taylor also discussed the Wheat Commission newspaper promotion al campaign, which so far has cost the commission about $23,000. The commission adopted topics for luiure aas in tne campaign, de signed to show the role of wheat in the state and national economy as well as to promote more use of wheat products.
