On Bear Meat
WAKAYAMA, Japan (UPI)
Fisherman Ryotaro Okado. 39.
dined today on bear steak, but it
was touch and go for a while.
Okado went fishing alone in the
middle of Bear Bay.
A 245-pound 'black bear had the
same idea. He might have been
lonesome for he climbed into
Okado's boat.
Okado climbed out and began
twimming for the shore.
The bear followed.
Then three other fishermen
raced to the rescue waving oars.
The bear climbed into their boat.
They climbed out and began
swimming for the shore.
The bear followed.
They scrambled ashore and ran
into reinforcements of 50 other
fishermen armed with harpoons.
There was bear steak for all
today.
Wilson pointed with pride to the
fact that Oregon's wheat surplus
was the best of any state raising
wheat. 'Our surplus," he said
"represents only about nine per
cent of the nation's total surplus
Currently. Oregon's surplus is the
best handled of all."
Speaking of the surplus. Wilson
emphasized that the nation has
enough surplus wheat right now
to supply all the eating require
ments of this country for the net
two years.
The Wheat Commission, created
by the 1947 stale Legislature, is
financed by a levy of one-half per
cent per bushel on all wheat en
tering commercial channels in
Oregon.
This money in turn is used hv
the commission to work on Ihe
many problems of the wheat farm
er and industry.
Freight rales represent one of
Ihe major areas where the com
mission has effected great savings
tor wheat growers in Oregon. Wil
son estimated that the savings in
ireicnt rates alone would approxi
mate over $7Ufl.0(K).
in addition 10 ine nils program
in Japan, three other projects are
also being carried out through the
cooperation of the Japanese gov
eminent.
The school lunch program of
Japanese children has been exnand
ed and includes a hot dish, bowl of
powdered milk and a large wheat
roll.
Other programs include training
ol extension workers, establish
ment of the bakers' training school
in Tokyo, and extensive advertis
ing and promotional campaigns.
home of the money of Ihe com
mission also goes into research into
new uses for the wheat crop. Com
mission funds are used in wheat
research at Oregon Slate College:
experiment stations in Eastern Ore
gon, the Western Wheal Quality
Laboratory at Pullman. Washing
ton, and at USDA regional labo
ratories.
Activities of the Oregon Wheat
Growers League also gel commis
sion support. Matters of taxation
and legislation, youth activities.
federal agricultural programs.
marketing and many others get
commission assistance.
The makeup of Ihe current Ore
gon Wheat Commission consists of
five appointed directors. Three of
these are from the Columbia Ba
sin. and one each from Eastern
Oregon and Western Oregon.

The former vice president of the
I nited Slates is getting set for a
king-sized birthday celebration,
including a barbecue and a big
cake with maybe one candle
standing lor all those years.
The invitation list includes such
names as James A. Karlcy and
House Speaker Sam Rayburn iD
lcxi. And Garner is happily look
ing forward to another reunion
wilh many of his old political pals
and proteges.
The years, of course, have
slowed down Garner's once gal
loping routine. "Don't hurry, don't
worry, says the motto hanging in
his workroom. And he doesn't don
his wool hunting britches and go
chasing after deer on his birth
day anymore.
"I know my age." he says.
' When you get to be nearly m),
our hunting and fishing days are
over."
Garner's only remaining sport
is baseball on television.
Back in his Washington days.
Garner went to the ball games as
ollen as he could.
I always look one Democrat
and one Republican to sit in the
box with me. That wav. nnhoriv

Caclus Jack was a blunt-tongiied
quick-tempered fellow in Wash
ington. He pounded four gavels
to splinters during his first week
as sjieaker of the House.
After he became vice president.
he called himself Ihe "spare tire
of the government," and he kept
his mouth shut in public.
I never talk about national af-
lairs. he used lo say during his
two terms as vice president (1932
1040). "I leave that lo the boss

The Roosevelt-Garner friendship
survived Garner's acid comments
about Roosevelt's spending, pro
posal to pack the Supreme Court
and recognition of the Soviet Un
ion. But the two split wide apart
over Roosevelt's third term.
"A president in his third and
successive terms may not be a
dictator, hut he is Ihe first cou
sin or nan-oroiner ol one and he
will perform like one," said Gar
ner. Mrs. Gainer died in 19-ifl and
Garner lives alone but he is!
not lonely. He still has numerous1
visitors, some townsfolk and oth-,
ers just travelers. i
They drive under the towering
oak and pecan trees, walk
through the gale, and knock on
Ihe door of Ihe little white house
where Garner lives behind the ga
rage. He has given the red brick
house he built for Mrs. Garner
to the town of Uvalde.
"Come in." hollers Garner
from his battered old deskJiy the
front window. i
In 1!)52, Gamer supported Adlai
Stevenson and in 1934. Ihe former
Vice President appeared wilh Na
tional Democratic Chairman Paul
Buller, who was trying to patch
up a party fight in Texas.
But he has made no political
statements in recent years al
though he never misses a chance
to vole.
And Garner's partisanship has
definite limits.
"I dearly love the Democralic
party, but 1 .love my country
more." he says.
Garner was born in a log cabin
on Nov. 22. 1868. but he built him
self a fortune in ranching, real
estate and banking. He cut his
last connection with business in
1954 when he retired as director
of Uvalde's First Stale Bank.
