Malheur County, Oregon Entered a t, the postofflce at Nyssa, Oregon for transmission through the United Statesm ans, as second class matter, under the a rt^ S March 3, 1879 STATION IMPORTANT Tangible evidence of the importance of the Malheur experiment station to this county is developing from the work o f Dudley Sitton and his assistants on the experimental area near Cairo junction. One of the outstanding experiments conduct ed at the station is the feeding o f livestock, which gives farmers of this county an idea of what local-grown feed is the most satisfactory from the standpoint of gains made as compared to feed costs. The first announcement of the release of a vegetable to Malheur county gardeners from the station was announced last week A bean, developed by H. F. Dana of the United States department of agriculture at Corvallis, makes an excellent green bean and if left to mature will make a good dried bean. The station, bringing such agricultural bene fits to the county should be supported by tax payer's and other residents of the towns and rural areas. W H AT IS THE OBJECTIVE? To give the devil his due, everybody knows the OPA has a tough job, and every fair-mind ed citizen is willing to make plenty o f allow ance for unavoidable errors. On the other hand, the public will not calmly accept so-called price regulation, which, in reality, is arbitrary and unjustified profit control. To illustrate how price regulation is twisted to effect profit control, Mr. C. F. Hughes, in the New York Times, says: “ Some 40,000 medium trucks were manufactured for a civilian pool at a cost which reflected higher labor and mater ial charges. The OPA agreed to let the produc ers charge the extra costs, but is insisting that dealers exclude this additional amount from their mark-up. Financing, insurance, overhead and other expenses are therefore ignored . Profit, rather than price control is obviously the objective.” Similar demoralizing regulations have been perpetuated in the “ highest price line lirnitat-. ion” order which OPA applied to various lines of women’s and children’s clothes. At a session of retailers in Washington, one small town merchant told of a whole village having to go 13 miles to buy apparel which was eliminated from his store because he could not purchase the cheap lines any longer (manufact ure had been discontinued) and the O PA regul ation forbade him stocking anything at a higher price. Such regulations shake public confidence in the sincerity of purpose of the regulators. Payette Independent Enterprise G ATE C IT Y JO U R N A L TH U RSD AY A P R IL 27, 1944 sick leave.

The sale to other j i han established business firms wo- i uld be forbidden in order to keep speculators from entering the field, but sales- might be made from one government agency to another. A f ter the first world war, it was re lated. speculators bought goods fr om one government agency at rid iculously low prices and sold them to another government agency at exorbitant profit. This would be made impossible by the terms of the Wickersham bill. War food ad ministrator would be aided by ad visory committees composed of pro ducers. processors and distributors in determining prices, terms and conditions of sale in established commercial channels. The intent of congress to retain control over the entire program is made apparent by a provision re quiring the food administrator to report to congress each quarter up on his operations. In this respect the Wickersham bill does not differ materially from other measures wh ich have been Introduced for the purpose of selling other war mater ials alter the war. In all cases the primary aim seems to be to keep surplus goods out of the hands of speculators and favor established commercial channeLs in preference to the fly-by-night organiations which entered the field alter the first world war. Belatedly, and after a distressing shortage of livestock feed had re sulted from use of wheat in making industrial alcohol, war food admin istration has suddenly discovered that there is a surplus of potatoes and the tubers. In dehydrated form, may provide alcohol in sufficient quantity to relieve the pressure on diminishing wheat supplies.
