Monday, Nov. 21, 19fi0 PAGE 5 A Ballot Count In California Is Explained SACRAMENTO, Calif. AP) - Californians who went to the polls Nov. 8 gave Democrat John F. ' Kennedy a 34,000-vote edge. But on Nov. 17 the headlines read, "Nixon takes California." The voters who weren't, there Nov. 8 had been counted. They swung California's 32 electoral votes to Richard Nixon, giving his home state Republican prestige, though not the presidency.. The votes that put the vicei nrcsident over the top by 20,000 had been cast under California's liberal absentee voter law. It permits any registered voter! to cast his ballot betore election day by mail or in person if for any reason he won't be around on the regular day. He merely need apply for a spe cial ballot up to five days before, the election. If the signature on the application matches that on the register, he's sent an absentee ballot.. Or he may register in person between Oct. 19 and Nov. 8 and vote on the spot. , It may be nothing more than a fishing trip or vacation tour that calls the voter away. Or he may ' be in the hospital or otherwise too ill or lame to come to the pons. Or he may be in the armed serv ices. There are even provisions to allow special away-from-homel registration. This vear's absentee total is high. So was the number of reg ular ballots cast 6.4 million. In the regular balloling, President elect Kennedy led Nixon, accord ing to unofficial returns, by 3,121,- 658 to 3,087,227, or 49.7 per cent for Nixon. But with most of the absentee vote totaled, the figures are Nixon 3,237,451, Kennedy 3.21B.745. Nix on's lead in absentee balloting was 150,174 to 95,267, giving him 61 per cent of the absentees. The pattern of a higher percent age for the Republican candidate in absentee voting is typical in California, despite Democrats' having a 3-2 edge in voter reg istration. ; ; f The Republicans did put on an intensive campaign for absentee ballots. But so did the Democrats. Brown and several other Demo cratic leaders predicted Kennedy would sweep California, but de spite the final result they plan no' investigation of the balloting, ' Actually, it would be difficult to pet away with anything under California's strict election laws,, especially in absentee voting'. A good illustration of how elec-J tion officials guard against the possibility of a double vote voting absentee, then voting at the polls on election day was supplied by Nixon himself. Nixon, who had originally re ceived an absentee ballot, decided at the last moment to vote Nov. 8 at his home precinct In Whittier, Calif. But before he was allowed to cast his vole, he had to turn in his absentee ballot, which was torn up. i i 1 , rf?ft " ' ' - (! y I'Jrh M M I ; tP ?E "r' WEED ELEMENTARY SCHOOL students assaulted a barren slope near Weed Golf Club recently io plant more than 1,000 cedar seedlings.

While filming the Twentieth Century-Fox film "Wild in the Country," Miss Perkins uncorked a left-handed slap and tore a liga ment in her wrist. 1 ,000 Cedar Trees Planted By Pupils Of Weed School WEED Over 1,000 incense ce dar trees were planted recently by 150 students of the Weed Ele mcntary School. oiuucnis swarmed across an acre of ground adjacent to Weed Golf Course armed with shovels and willing fingers to plant the trees, donated by International Paper Company. The tree-planting project, spon sored by IPC, was under su pervision of Robert Cliiic, assist ant forester of IPC Weed opera tions. "Interest and enthusiasm of students and teachers alike was more than gratifying," a company spokesman staled. Consideration is being given to possibility of setting up an an nual event of this nature on a much larger basis. Annual plant ing projects could convert now- idle . acres into productive acres at a rapid rate, while increasing the scope of student conservation education, the spokesman added. The area planted was an idle area, overgrown with weeds and brush and totally unproductive. The growing trees will enhance the beauty of the area and even tually provide a constant source of raw material for the life blood of Weed forest products. Cline gave credit for success of the project to Larry Lenzi, Weed Elementary School principal, for transportation and allowing stu dents to participate. Assistance was provided by four teachers, Frank Anthony, Ar thur Fish, Jim Nicastro and Bob Willett.

"Wilh only minor clianRes in farm value and marketing charges iof farm food) in prospect, the farmer's share of the consumer' food dollar in 1961 is expected to average .18 cents, the same as forecast for this year, or possibly a cent less," the department said in the 1961 outlook issue of "The Marketing and Transportation Sit uation." If the farmer's share did drop to 37 cents, it would be only a nickel above the low of 32 cents recorded in 1932-33. Other low re turns to the farmer were 34 cents in 1934 and 35 cents in 1931. The department said charges for marketing farm food products were expected lo go up again next year, but the increase likely will be small. Marketing charges in clude (hose which pay for assem bling, processing, transporting and distributing farm food products all necessary in moving raw food from the farm to the consumer at the retail food counter. The department noted that mar keting charges increased more slowly in 1959 and I960 than in the preceding two years. The av erage charges for I960 will be about one per cent higher than jin 1959. The agency said labor and other costs incurred by mar-, keting firms in 1961 probably would not increase much from j present levels. I Continued rises in wage rates have been at least partly offset by improvements in productivity. tne department said. Prices of fuel, packaging materials and many other items purchased by marketing firms have not in creased this year as in most post, war years. The general level of rail freight rates on farm products probably win average about the same in 19R0 as in 1959. Truck rates, how ever, rose this year, and a rela lively small increase in rail freight rates went into effect Oct. 24. The total farm value or pay. ment farmers receive for farm products equivalent to the prod ucts in the farm food market basket probably will average a little less in 1961 than this year. Lower average prices were in prospect for cattle and chickens. 'But prices of hogs and eggs in the months ahead were expected to be higher than a year ago, but might fall below those levels later in 1961. Retail prices of farm food prod. uds may be about the same next year as in 1960. Pre-holiday stocks of turkeys on Nov. 1 were a record 279 million pounds, according to the Crop Re porting Board's cold storage re port. The previous record of 255 million pounds occurred on Nov. 1, 1958. Total frozen poultry stocks on Nov. 1 were a record 411 million pounds. Frozen vegetable stocks also were a record one billion pounds. ' The Nov. 1 stocks of frozen foods were 13 per cent greater than the 1955-59 average and 8 per cent above a year earlier.
