Oklahoma Head Hakes Heal Blow For Freedom By DOC QUIGG United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK (UP) The gover nor of the great state of Okla homa has wound up and struck what I -would call a ruSl gasscr of a blow for freedom. What he is trying to free is the calendar, lie claims it is bowed by the weight of useless special days, weeks and months. To that end. his last weekly newsletter begun forthrightly: "There will be no pickle wet'K In Oklahoma this year. I feel we cin somehow manage to struggle l-ing without 9i. In fact. I doubt it any one excent a Chicago pub lic relations firm will be even jiilldly disappointed." The governor's name is Ray mond Gary. He has nothing ogaif?t pickles, as such, so long as tl.' keep out of proclamations he has to sign. Last year, he F;iys. he issued 270 proclamations. Looking back on it, he can't find any reason for such as "Clown AVeek" and "Golf Day Matter of fact, he says, the whole publicity-stunt business is in a sad state of decline.

SACRAMKNTO California's Almond Control Board is recom nirnding to the secretary of agri culture that a surplus el of 24 jict cent should be established for .trie 19")7 crop. The board made the recommen 'rintion after estimating the stir plus for the year at 8,600.000 pounds, including imports. . G. Stalker of the California Almond Growers Kxchnnge said hat even with the surplus, which !is the first in two years, the in- dustry was in a strong position. "The growers are getting a good price for their almonds and should continue to do 50," he said. TTp hoard was told that the California Cron and Livestock Kcporting Service had estimated next year's crop to he only about 2'i to 27 million pounds. Th.s was compared to a five year average of- 43.Vto.0o0 million pound. when pancakes were publicized by frying them on the sidewalk on a hot July day. That got a picture in the paper and helped liven a dull day. "Now." he laments, "they aski for a high-sounding proclamation' instead. Kven the lowly picklcj seeks to shroud itself in dignified whereases, and tie in with public welfare by urging additional out door recreation facilities. This seems a bit ridiculous to me. "Pickles have their place, of, course. But there is little formal ity or dignity about a pickle, with or without warts." The governor recalled a round- trip plane pilgrimage from Wash ington. D.C., to Oklahoma City by a man on a lone mission to get proclamationo"extolling the vir tues of salmon." The governor said a high-level conference had decided a flood of proclamations would help salmon sales. He told the salmon missionary Oklahoma! had beef to sell. fll right, no pickle week for the Sooners. But I find, on look ing at the U.S. Chamber of Com merce listing, that Pickle Week follows hard on the cottontail of National Domestic Rabbit Week" this month. If the gover nor is going to be fair, he'll have to snub rabbits too.
