A proposal to set grade, size and maturity requirements for onions marketed under the Idaho-Malheur County Federal marketing order is being con sidered by the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture. Onion imports would be sub ject to grade, size and ma turity requirements comparable to those proposed for Idaho- Malheur County onions. Officials of USDA’s Agri cultural Marketing Service said beginning July 17, the proposed import regulations would re quire yellow varieties of onions to grade at least U. S. No. 2 or better, and be a minimum of 1-1/2 inches in diameter. White varieties would have to be erade U. S. No. 2 or better and at least 1 inch in diameter. In addition, all onions imported would have to be at least “mo derately cured.” AMS officials said the pro posed regulations are similar to those issued last summer. They are necessary to assist pro ducers in the orderly market ing of this year’s crop, and help keep inferior onions from reaching consumers. Specific details of the pro posed import requirements are scheduled to appear in the Fe deral Register July 1, andcom- ments may be filed up until July 8. Four copies of comments should be sent to the Hearing Clerk, 112-A, U. S. Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. 20250, where they will be available for public inspec- MAULD1NG CLINIC L. A.

What’s the dif ference between working for $5.00 per day and paying $1.00 for a pocket watch or $25.00 per day and paying $5.00 for the same watch. The only real difference is the government takes more out of your pay check for a higher wage. We can’t have our cake and eat it too or a man working for General Motors actually has no business buying a Datsun IF he expects to keep on work ing. In no way can you compare the wage of a working man in the United States with the wage of a Japanese. As long as the American public continues to purchase materials in great quantities that are made ab road, so can we expect to have labor troubles here at home. On the other hand we shouldn’t really expect someone on a limited income to pay $10.00 for a home made product, even though it may be better built, when he can get a comparable item for $5.00 made in a fo reign country. For many years we all knew that the American made goods were far better than those made in Japan but today there’s room for doubt. When you buy a new car and the windshield wipers won’t wipe and the air condi tioner won’t condition, and the alternator needs new bearings at 15,000 miles you wonder if your next car shouldn’t be a little foreign made job. We have too high an unem ployment rate today. But what’s the name of your motorbike? If it isn’t a Harley-Davidson it wasn’t made in the United States and how long has it been since you have seen a Harley- Davidson motorcycle? If we made all of those noise makers here at home there would be a shortage of labor. Why can’t we produce our own bikes? Be cause we can’t meet the labor market. We place a very high rate on our services and as a result we are having the highest standard of living the world has ever known. This is good and we shouldn’t create too much of a fuss when the whole con cept back fires in the form of unemployment. I feel that the Federal Government is a little nuts when they talk of a $4,000. a year guaranteedwagebecau.se thats right at poverty level. Social Security, in some cases, pays $3,000.00 per year and the recipient gets his knuckles This week let me talk about one of the important major American authors, Ernest Hemingw ay. Recently made available in paperback is Hemingway’s posthumous novel, ISLANDS IN THE STREAM. The novel has a variety of themes and moods, dynamic action scenes, and a rich and ribald sense of humor. In fact, ISLANDS IN THE STREAM tells a story closely resembling Hemingway’s life, which by the way is true of most of the writings of the late Ernest Hemingway. The novel’s chief character is Thomas Hudson who is a good painter. His solitary life of artistic self-discipline on the lush Caribbean island of Bimini is interrupted by a visit from his three lively sons. In a thrilling descriptive scene, David, the middle boy, shows his courage when attacked by a shark and his endurance while fighting a thousand pound swordfish. It is an initiation into manhood. Years later Hudson is in Cuba mourning the death of his oldest son. A chance encounter with his first wife renews their passionate commitment to each other. In the final episode, in my opinion a masterpiece of action and adventure, Hudson captains an improvised Q-boat hunting down the survivors of a German submarine. This assign ment requires a kind of discipline wholly different from his creative life as a painter but no less important to his in tegrity. It is Thomas Hudson’s most important battle. One critic had the following to say about ISLANDS IN THE STREAM. In brief he stated, “A complete well-rounded novel, a contender with Hemingway’s very best. It is indeed 100-proof old Ernest.” Another reviewer had this statement in brief to make about the novel: “There are brilliant descriptions in the famous Hemingway style when he describes the bonds of love and hate between a group of men who are engaged in a tight and dangerous adventure with death as the ultimate stake. He remains unbeatable in his craft.” ISLANDS IN THE STREAM is remarkably alive with voice and muscle, and the fishing episode is only slightly less dazzling than Santiago’s struggle in THE OLD MAN AND THE SEA.

Everything is relative, we shouldn't expect to earn a lot and pay a little and maybe the reason you’re out of work is because you want too much for what little you do. Malheur County Realtors Strive For High Standards “Realtors in Malheur County are continuing to urge for the highest possible degree of pro fessional competence among all people selling real estate,” John Vincent, President of the Malheur County Board of Real tors said yesterday. “Realtors represent a vital and moving factor in the housing fortunes of this nation, and this imposes a delicate respon sibility upon us all,” according to Vincent. “Just as we have the privilege and right to re present a nation’s people in the acquistition and disposal of privately owned real property, we also have duty and res ponsibility to protect this American heritage through a constant endeavor to maintain the highest standards of pro fessionalism and performance.’ Education is a primary ob jective of the board and the National Association of Real;’ Estate Boards, Realtor Vincent- said. ‘‘As Realtors we are pledged to a strict code of-- ethics and are continually cal ling upon the real estate com mission to have the highest level of education requirements for salespeople entering the real estate profession. “We encourage colleges and universities in Oregon to coir- tinue to offer real estate' courses.
