Hew Systems May Boost Acre Income CORVALLIS-Co-sponsorship of an agricultural research program to explore new cropping systems that could place one million acres of Willamette Valley farmlands under irrigation and .perhaps dou ble or treble income per acre was announced jointly Wednesday by Pacific Power and Light Com pany and Oregon State University. Describing the program as one offering the prospects of greater diversification in the agricultural economy of the entire state as well as more intensive cropping in the Willamette Valley, spokes men for Pacific Power and OSU said initial studies indicate a tre mendous untapped potential for upgrading valley crop production, Announcement of the program followed action of the Oregon State Board of Higher Education in accepting a $50,000 grant from Pacific Power to be made avail able over a five-year period. The OSU Agriculture Experi ment Station is adjusting its pro gram to conduct the research project, which has been urged by farm leaders throughout the val ley, it was said. "Objectives of the research arc to learn how to best drain, irri gate, fertilize and crop the older alluvial soils to raise more prof itable crops than are presently produced," explained F. E. Price, dean of the School of Agricul ture at OSU. Soils under study include Dayton (white land) and Amity types and Woodburn soils, the latter classed as better drained. "Only a fraction of Willamette Valley agricultural land some 170.000 acres of the better drained soils is under irrigation, while there are nearly one-million acres of the older alluvial soils to be studied," Price added. "If we learn how these soils can be irrigated profitably, entire dis tricts can be brought under irri gation instead of the costly pro cedure of trying to get water into isolated and intermingled patch es of the better drained soils," he explained. PP&L President Don R. Mc Clung noted the electric utility has been associated with many agri cultural research and develop ment projcclii in the Northwest in the past half-century. "We are especially enthusiastic 1 about the benefits that will be shared by the communities and farm areas wo serve if more acre age can be brought under electric- powered sprinkler irrigation and produce more cash income for the region, McClung said. McClung said the economic ben efits could extend to the food processing Industries that would expand payrolls and to the growth of firms that supply and service agricultural production, including irrigation equipment and fertiliz ers. The research field plots arc to be established this summer on the Linn County farm of Glenn Jackson, an official of Pacific Power, and on the OSU George R. Hys'op Agronomy Farm be tween Albany and Corvallis. The Jackson farm has Dayton and Amity type soils that arc poorly drained. The Hyslop tract Woodburn soil is of the moderate ly well drained type. Similarities Seen In Racial Tensions In U,S, And African Nationalism - Ily WARD CANNKL Newspaper Enterprise Assn. NEW YORK (NEA) - Is there a link between racial tensions bubbling furiously in the U.S. today and the rising tide of black nationalism sweeping the conti nent of Africa? After a three-month news tour of the dark continent and the surrounding nations most involved in her birth agonies, this reporter comes home to find a mirror iii'wgfe of the color bailie lie left across the Atlantic and a num ber of disturbing questions. The names, of course, arc dif ferent. In Africa; Kwame Nkru mah, pan-Africanism; Dr. Hen rick Verwoerd. apartheid. In the CM Local Man Dies At 51 A Klamath Falls man, Herman (Jack) Thompson, SI, died June 11 in the Veterans Hospital in Portland. He had been a pa tient tliere for two months. Mr Thompson was a victim of can cer. He served overseas In tile U S Army in World War II and had lived In Klamath Kails many years. He was a painter and did much ol tlie interior work on the Klam ath County Courthouse and the post office building. Surviving are two sons, Adrian J . U.S. Navy. Idaho Falls, Idaho, George of Seattle and one daugh ter, Mrs. Marlyce Jefferson of Sun Francisco. Funeral services will be announced. A full set of bowling equip, nwnt was found in one of the tombs of ancient Egypt. U.S.: Itev. Martin Luther King, integration; Gov. George Wallace, segregation. But are the concepts the same, and far more crucial as this reporter often has been asked on his return does this world take its incentive from that, or that struggle from ours? Is a Negro American encour aged to public demonstration, fur example, by the overwhelming victory of Jomo Kenyatta, Ken ya's former Mau Mau leader, as prime minister of a major white-settler African nation? Does it mean anything to Ne gro Americans that Ghana's pres ident. Kwame Nkrumah, has world leaders of all colors dancing attendance at his palace in hopes of gaining his allegiance? Or, for example, does the Re public of South Africa lind some justification (or its policy of apar theid segregated statehood lor its Negro Africans in custo mary white-black relationships in some U.S. states? Well, there is no doubt that some line of communication is open between Negro American and Negro African leadership. Nor is it any kind of secret that racial troubles in the U.S. are headlined in the black African press. And. of course, should an Afri can student feel himself slighted in the U.S. for any reason what soever, his complaint is usually' circulated through live highest of-1 fices in his home country. It is also a matter of fact that the white supremacy gov ernment of the Republic of South Africa, led by Dr. Verwoerd. is in daily receipt of congratulatory letters from some white citizenry of this country. Despite a roomful of evidence like this, however, it is impos sible for this reporter to find anything more than a few paral lels betw een the Wi th pangs of I African nationalism and the agon ies of American democracy. In the first place, most Afri cans, whea they think about it, are probably as pro-American as they are pro-their-own - country. Regardless of what they hear about U.S. classroom segregation, they would like their children educated here. , In the second place, the posi tion of the Negro American in Africa as teacher, expert or emis sary is something less than cer tain. Whatever he may feel about his heritage and ancestors, the African tends to look on his as an American first and a Negro last. Out of the office and over a friendly bottle of water, Amcri icans in Africa, black or white, seem to this reporter to share the same feelings about the continent, its indigenous residents and its colonizers. Those feelings cannot by any stretch of the imagination be described as my people," "my cousins," "my al lies but in the tar more re mote and alien "our brothers." Also, the African politician at the district or even state level has no time to look for links between his struggle and the fight that rages in the U.S. And in real life there are few. The African is a member of the majority ruled by a hand ful of greedy, frightened whites. He has the irrepressible logic of numbers on his side, and the time - consuming job of trying to be heard on this point. As Jomo Kenyatta pointed out to this reporter: "Pan-Africanism, federation and all the rest may be good goals for the future. But right now we have a great PAGE 4 A ITERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon Thursday, June ill, VM deal to do in building our country and tribes into a nation." Does the Negro American take any incentive from this in his open efforts to change his way of life?"

The plain fact is that Liberia has a segregation problem as virulent as any in the U.S. with native Liberians resentful and angry at being ruled politically! and socially by the descendants of former U.S. slaves who chose to take their freedom to Africa and with it a 18th century Amer ican supremacist a'titude.

Jf'Os New President Of Peru Has Plans To Tap New Resources By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst Fernando Belaunde Terry is a handsome, darkly intent man who as a architect also has large scale plans for altering the map of Peru. Now, as Peru's newly elected next president, he may have a chance for at least a start on putting those plans into effect. His dream is of a "forest edge" road which would open up tlie un tapped resources of eastern Peru, and benefit Colombia, Ecuador and Bolivia as well. He explained those plans to this correspondent a few weeks ago, spreading maps on the floor of a pleasant room off a sun-filled patio HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon of his home at the edge of Lima uii uis wans oi tne room were mementos of his travels bv hors. back and canoe along tlie eastern edges of the Andes which divide Peru into coast, high sierra and jungle. Spans 3.000 .Miles The road Belaunde foresees would run 3,000 miles along trails which, in Peru, Belaunde himself has travelled. He estimates its total cost at $216 million, with Peru's share amounting to $81 million. The project already has been partly surveyed and Belaunde hopes the job can be finished un der the Alliance for Progress. Peru, Belaunde says, has onlv about one half acre of arable land I the nation's greatest problem. Tlie! framework of continental coopera- per person at present. road, he oeheves, would go tar lion. He estimates that every mile of the new road would open up more than 3.000 acres of land, doubling Uk? amount now available. Opens Three Rivers It would open up access to the Amazon. Orinico and Itio Del Plata, three of South America's greatest rivers, thus extending its benefits to Argentina and Brazil as well. And it would make available vast new resources of oil, gas, manganese and jungle products. Along with his opponents in last Sunday's general elections, Bel aunde considers Peru's six mil lion poverty-stricken Indians as Thursday, Juuc 13, 1963 PACE 5 A toward improving their lot and bringing thorn into the national economy. For them he also vfuuld estab lish 200 pools of farm machinery and tools to help modernize pres ent primitive farming methods. Party Moderately Lett The Popular Action Party which Belaunde heads is considered mod erately left, between the leftwing APRA Party headed by Victor Raul Haya de la Torre and tlie rightwing Odria Union of former President Manuel Odria, the other two major candidates whom Bel aunde defeated. The winning party is na tionalistic but, Belaune e.x- ained, nationalistic within a Belaunde specifically rejected Communist support and called for encouragement of private indus try and investment and for co ordination of Peruvian and Unit ed States efforts. Belaunde ran second to Haya de la Tone in last year's elections which an army take-over annulled on grounds of fraud. In this elec tion there remained doubt that tlie army would have permitted Haya to take oflicc even had he won. The armed forces approve of Belaunde.

Europeans Find Methods To Control Foul Play In National Lotteries LONDON (UPI) - Americans who fear that a legalized lottery, such as recently enacted in New Hampshire, will become infested with corruption, under-the-table dealing and other fast shuffles to the detriment of the Lettuis get no sympathy from lottery-happy Europe. Europe seems to have found the answer to keeping cheating and graft out of the lottery systems themselves. And there is not a country in Western Europe that doesn't have some kind of legal gambling, and a number of the national lotteries have been in ex istence in varying form for cen turies. Two Of Biggest Two of the biggest national lot teries are run in France and Italy. Both countries keep control of the lotteries in the hands of their finance ministries, which also arc the beneficiaries of tlie taxes that derive from them. In France, the "Loterie Nation- ale" is run by a special depart ment of the Finance Ministry and the government claims its safe guards are foolproof.
