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. Chairman Mar
ion Weatherford said, was through

the work of the Pacific Northwest
Grain and Drain Products Assocla.
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.
