Th« Nyssa Gate City Journal, Nyssa, Oregon Pag* Twelve Farm Bureau Commends FFA Convention •‘If there is one way to demonstrate to our young people the necessity for or der and a natural pro gression of events, it is through contests like this.” Floyd Hawkins, 3rd vice- president of the Oregon Farm Bureau Federation, congra tulated the winners of the State F FA Parliamentary Procedure competition Tues day night in Ontario upon presentation of the trophy to the entry from Silverton High School. Second place went to Canby and third to the team from Nyssa High School. ‘‘Parliamentary procedure illustrates how all human so cieties, from the highest level of government to the neighborhood club, assures every man, woman or child a voice in their decisions,” Hawkins said. "Only through this orderly conduct of our affairs can we Gei fte Savings HaMt as a people remain free of tyranny in any of its many forms-internal or external. Only through the lesson taught by these exercises in citizenship to such groups as the Future Farmers of America can we of this ge neration feel that some of what we pass on to succeed ing generations has mean ing," he concluded. Hawkins, a Vale rancher, told the audience that his being present Tuesdaj to present the awards was just one instance where State Farm Bureaus throughout the United States work hand in hand with farm youth or ganizations. He promised the contes tants that, if they drove tractors as well as they con ducted their business, he would see them at the Oregon State Fair during the annual Oregon Farm Bureau-FFA tractor driving championship. riers is SAIF, the State Accident Insurance Fund, which insures some 40.000 Oregon employers. Don Clark, SAIF’s Baker Dis trict Office Manager, is con cerned that area employers are unaware of this increase or its April 1 effective date. "Many employers, es pecially the political subdi visions, will need to con sider this change when re viewing their 1974-75 bud gets,” he said. "When you’re dealing with a large number of employes within tight budget restrictions, even an increase of a few cents a day can really make a difference.” Clark said SAIF is per sonally contacting as many of its policyholders as pos sible and will soon be send ing notices to all 40,000 of them.

Growers are now recei ving checks amounting to $2.00 per ton for last year’s beets.
