WALL STREET NEW YORK (UPD - Stocks moved slightly higher today. Electronics, oils and steels showed the best gains. Lukcns, U. S. Steel. Youngstown Sheei, Armco and Jones & Laughlin were up fractions to a point. Sunray DX, Amerada, Wilcox, Sinclair and Marathon improved in the oils and IBM, Motorola. Contraol Data, Raytheon and RCA featured the electronic gainers. Autos were firm. Chemicals, drugs, rails, utilities, metals and airlines were up slightly. Wall Street Chatter NEW YORK p'UPli L. O. Hooper of W. E. Hutton 4 Co. notes that "people are combing over their portfolios for oppor tunities to save taxes, and a high percentage of a'.l trades are for tax reasons." However,- Hooper says that "tax selling usually is not an over-all market price influence. This is because the person who sells to take a loss almost al ways buys something to replace what he tells at approximately the same time."

Wayncj'Morse, D-Ore., said to day the old Tongue Point Naval Base near Astoria, Ore., would be used for a Bureau of Indian Affairs vocational educational school for Indians students of high school ago. Morse said conversion cost was estimated at $5 million with an operating budget of $1.5 to $17 million. He said Interior Secretary Stewart L'dad has approved tlie plans and was sending a re quest lor funds to the Solvate and House Appropriations Com mittees. Morse said the students would come primarily from llio Paci fic Nor'liwest. The proposed school would house 1.000 stu dents and about 165 faculty members ami supporting staff. SHIPMENTS by the nominating committee of association past presidents, Ben Re i m e r, Stanley Buckingham and Earl Schultz. The board will meet for reor ganization and election of offi cers. The membership gave unani mous support to the proposal to levy a one-half cent per hun dredweight assessment in the future on all potatoes shipped from the Tulelake area. This levy will replace the old acre age assessment of $1 per acre. Members felt, officers report, "that many growers who hesi tate to write checks in larger amounts, would agree to this smaller assessment." Under the new plan the individual grow er's assessment, will, in most cases be considerably reduced, but it is hoped that the number of active members will increase to the extent that the overall revenue to the association will he sufficient to balance the budget." For the new plan to be suc cessful, the full cooperation of the shipper will be required. Shippers will be asked to make the necessary deductions at shipping time. "If we do not get the cooper ation of the shippers, the plan will fail," say proponents of the plan. These levies will be voluntary but will be charged against all growers automatically, unless growers object to paying them. The new method of assess ment wil go into effect imme diately and association manager Sam Wynne was directed by the board to prepare the neces sary forms. All monies collect ed will be credited to the indi vidual grower's account. The growers voted also to ap ply the same method to the col lection of grain assessments. A levy of 10 cents per Ion will be collected at the elevators. TGA President John Coulson stressed the importance to the Tulelake Community and t h e Klamath Basin as a whole, and to the individual growers, of having an active and progres sive growers' association. "The value to the Klamath Basin of work accomplished by the asso ciation cannot lie over - esti mated," Coulson said. "For example," Coulson, eon linucd, "the association's effort to gel Idaho and Washington potato growers to cooperate in reducing fresh market supplies of potatoes, cost the association only a few hundred dollars, but resulted In a return of revenue to the Klamath Basin, in the ap proximate sum of $200,000 for each five cents of price rise. "The association must have adequate operational capital," Coulson told the membership. "We must have a more reliable Income source to permit TGA manager Sam Wynne to spend more time on association work and less time scratching for revenue." Coulson also stressed that the entire community benefits from the association, and cited inter est of businessmen as associ ate members, who recognize the material benetits of the TGA. A resolution w a s adopted He said "this important devel opment came as a result of my conferences over a period of weeks with the secretary of in terior." He also said ihe plans had b c c n discussed in detail with the late President John F. Kennedy when Kennedy visited Tongue Point Sept. 27, 1963. ' Morse said plans called for construction work to start next spring with tlie school to open in the fall of 1965. Facilitities to be used by the school w 0 u I d include, Morse said. Former hacholo quarters an additional dormitory to house 250 girl students; enlisted men's barracks to house 500 students; a now 22 classroom biuklmg; hangars for atlieltics; present shop building for vocational pro grams: l.0 housing units on Navy Heights to house school personnel, and homes on the the base lo h 0 u s e top faculty per sonnel. Insure Your Happy Holidays! DRIVE CAREFULLY! Bob Jones' Southern Oregon Insurance Agency So. ih 4 Sh.m War 2-4671 commending retiring president John Coulson (or his dedicated service to Ihe association during the three years he has served. The association operated at a loss of $3,485 in 1962. A report prepared by Tulelake farm adviser Ken Baghott on seed potato diseases was read by Sam Wynne. In closing, Coulson said, "the supporters of tlie association feel we must keep the associa tion operation and that the only alternative to closing the doors was the adoption of new methods of assessments that would encourage grower participation.
