Potato Proposal Gains Support Of Producers TL'LELAKE - The proposal made recently by the Tulelake Growers Association to with hold from the fresh market the sale of any potatoes below the grade of U.S. No. 1, through marketing provisions, is meet ing with favorable reaction in many of Hie potato producing areas of the West. Responses have been in an swer to letters mailed to mem bers of the potato industry in Idaho, Washington, Oregon. Cal ifornia by John L. Coulson, as sociation president. The letter, commenting on the present poor marketing season with depressed prices barely covering the cost of. production, draws attention to the already established marketing order which includes the necessary framework to put such a mar ket w ithdrawal into operation. The plan would in effect. BoxcarBill Approved WASHINGTON iUPI '-Legislation designed to increase the nation's supply of railroad freight cars was approved by a Senate commerce subcommit--e Wednesday. The bill, sponsored by 35 sen ators, would amend the Inter state Commerce Act to provide that payments to boxcar own ers be fixed at such levels that would encourage acquisition and maintenance of a freight car fleet adequate to meet the needs of commerce and the national defense. Sen. Warren G. Magnuson. D-Wasli.. chairman of the sub committee and the parent Com merce Committee, introduced the measure in March. He em phasized that it is needed to prevent serious losses to grain, lumber, mining and other indus tries unable to ship their prod ucts for lack of cars. He cited recent data showing that w ith the current car short age of more than 17.000 per day eight western railroads have re ported more than 400 blocked grain elevators on their lines. More than 12.5 million bushels of wheat are on the ground, he added. Four young people, two from Klamath County, took part in a speeoti contest in Ashland Nov. 4, with first place going to a .Merrill girl. Lois Hobson. The seicond county contestant was Barbara Reid of Bonanza who took second place. Other con testants, two boys, were Mike Charley, Eagle .Point, third, and Don Cail, Central Point, fourth.

The re sult would be quality potatoes marketed at improved prices. Coulson further pointed out that such a provision in t h e marketing order would not ad versely affect the processors but would serve to make avail able a larger than normal sup ply for starch producers and livestock feeders. A still further beneficial re sult of shipping only U.S. No. Is, Coulscn continued, would be the improved appearance of po tatoes in the retail markets. With modern day super mar kets offering quantities of glam or foods that replace potatoes in the diet, unappealing d i s plays of tubers are ignored by the shopping public. This, Coul son points out, has been a pri mary factor contributing to the drop in per capita consumption of potatoes. W ith the proposed change in shipping rules and the removal of lower grades of potatoes from the open market. Coulson expressed belief that the bene fits to the producer would be far-reaching and long-lasting. Navy Unveils Model Of Sub WASHINGTON IUPI - The Navy has an 18-foot model of a futuristic submarine that some day may be able to resist the pressure of water at the mile-and-a-ha depth at which the nuclear-powered Thresher was lost last April. Built in The Netherlands at a cost of $100,000 the model has rotating propellers powered by electrical motors outside the hull. The hull itself is of solid construction like the gondola of the deep-diving bathyscaphe Tri este. The submarine model was ex hibited Tuesday at the David Taylor Model Barn in nearby Maryland. Hydrodynamic tests are to start next week.

Press acclaim from Europe and North America has been uniform in its praise. Thus, from Geneva: "One cannot ask for more meticulously controlled nuances, more carefully propor tioned balance between the va rious sections, and n ot a b 1 y among the soloists;" from Bar celona: "A profound and rig orous conductor:" and from Montreal: "The Paris Chamber Orchestra demonstrated the qualities which permit us to compare it w ith the best groups of its kind. They have disci pline, balance, depth, attention to detail, perfection of style, and individual excellence of each in strumentalist." The instrumentation of t h e group normally consists of sev en violins, two violas, two cel los, one double bass, and either piano, clavichord or organ. To this basic unit may be added wind instruments (flute, oboe, bassoon, trumpot, horn) to achieve the combinations de sired to the presentation of more complex scores, such as the Bach Brandenburg Concer tos. Thus, the ensemble main tains a flexibility and virtuosity that enables it to perform works of all styles and periods.
