7 Per Cent Cutback Asked In Acreage Of Spud Crop
WASHINGTON 'AP A 7 per
cent cutback this year in the
acreage of summer and fall crop
potatoes was recommended by the
Agriculture Department Friday to
help stabilize grower prices.
- In setting such a voluntary
planting guide, the department
took Into account the fact that this
year's acreage of spring crop po
tatoes is up 4 per cent from a
year ago and the winter crop
acreage was unchanged.
The department said its recom
mendations would put the I960
total acreage at 1,341,050 acres
compared with 1.416,300 last year.
This would produce, at recent
acre yields, 207 million hundred
weight of potatoes compared with
212 million hundredweight last
vear. The department' said this
would be adequate to satisfy all
market requirements.
In announcing the planting
guides, the department said il

KLAMATH COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
The Klamath County Chamber's
colorful tourist promotion folder,
published just a year ago, re
ceived what we humbly consider
long overdue recognition this week
when it was awarded a gold ribbon
lor sales promotion literature in
its class. The award was received
in behalf of the chamber by mana
ger, Ii. Frank Tucker, at the an
nual meeting of the Oregon Adver
tising Club in Portland.
Credit for the success of the
bright, appealing folder actually is
a three-way affair. Ed Brother
hood, former assistant manager of
the chamber, and now manager of
the Hanford (California) Chamber
"DENNIS THE MENACE"
of Commerce, developed the orig
inal idea for the folder created
the first rough layout. The fin
ished product was the work of
Agency Lithograph of Portland,
who submitted the folder to the
Oregon Advertising Club for con
sideration. Purchase of 150.000 of
the striking folders was made pos
sible through the cooperation of
the wayside industries of the Klam
ath area, and for that, credit goes
to chamber director, Charlie
Schuss, and his Tourist and Con
vention Committee.
Jim Stilwell's Industrial Devel
opment Committee is sporting a
brand new brochure extolling the
Klamath area's unlimited water
and timber resources, fine trans
portation facilities and unparal
leled livability to any and all busi
nesses and industries contcmplat
ing locating here. The brochure
will be mailed out in answer to
business or industrial inquiries and
will become an important addition
to the portfolio of the county's
traveling salesmen." Oregon's top
salesman. Gov. Mark Hatfield,
will take a supply of the bro
chures along with him when he
and some 30 of the state's busi
ness and industrial representatives
make a prospecting swing through
Chicago, New York, Boston and
other Midwestern and Eastern in
dustrial centers this spring.

In view of the nation's need for
new farmers, it is fitting that rec
ognition be given to these young
men who are preparing for careers
in farming.
The four classes in the cham
ber's Action Course in Practical
Politics are nearing the end of
their nine week session. While a
complete account of the accom
plishments of the course undoubt
edly will appear in the news col
umns of this paper (Tom Stim-
incl and Virginia Fuller of the
H & N are avid students in
the Wednesday evening class), but
two items which will bear fuller
coverage later on (no pun intend
ed) are well worth mentioning
here. One class project uncov
ered what is said to be the only
copy of the bill establishing
Klamath County passed by the
Legislature on October 17, . 1882.
Another project resulted in the
development of an up-to-date pre
cinct map of the Klamath Falls
area.
The interest engendered in po
litical matters as a result of the
course is, naturally, very gratify
ing, and was just what the U.S
Chamber hoped for when it made
the course available a little over
a year ago. As of January, 1960
the National Chamber reports that
about 2,500 Action Courses for over
42,000 citizens have been held, are
now underway or are definitely
planned by business firms, cham
bers of commerce, trade and pro
fessional associations and other
community organizations.
Obviously, no course of this kind
is any better than the discussion
leaders and participants make it.
From the results achieved thus
far there can be no doubt that
the four leaders and 60-odd per
sons participating in the local ac
tion course are making it an out
standing example of what the
course can accomplish toward re
awakening interest in politics and
government.
