Groups Meet to Air
BIacktopping Of
Road to Cemetery

The discussion at the Tuesday
meeting emphasized the fact
that while there may be many
''proS and cons'' on this matter,
the main thing to be considered
was the opportunity to provide
this much needed addition to
our community, at a price far
below the normal amount. II
was only through a very gen
erous offer by the Lalonde
Construction Co. that the prof
ect was considered.
The work proposed would be
20 miles in length and would
extend from the junction with
Highway No. 16 to the north
gate of the cemetery. The
price proposed would represent
less than half the normal price
Any organization that in any
way wishes to help in this
very worthy community project
can do so by either contracting
Curt Ball at the Valley Hote
or by depositing amy monte:

Price Supports Are
Given for RichIand

loan rates, however, are based
on the national average loan
price of $1.82 per bushel; the
remaining 18 cents per bushel
of the support price will be
an in-kind payment to partici-
pants based on the normal pro-
duction of the farms acreage
for harvest. This 18-cent pay
ment is the same throughout
the country; it does not vary
by counties as the loan rate
does.
Producers who do not parti-
cipate in the 1868 program, but
who plant within their 1868
acreage allotments, will be eli
gible only for price-support
loans and purchase agreements
based on the '$1.82 national av-
erage loan price.
For major producing areas,
as in the past, county rates for
1868 generally reflect terminal
rates less handling and freight
charges needed to get the wheat
to terminals. County and ter
minal rates are adjusted UP or
down for grade and quality to
determine support prices for
Individual producers. Price

New Study Set
On Antibiotics
As Cold Fighter

WASHINGTON CUPID The
government is preparing to take
a second look at its proposal to
ban the sale of cold treatment
drugs containing antibiotics.
The Food and Drug Admins
tration (FDA) announced Aug.
II that it planned to ban sale
of the compounds because, it
said, antibiotics are of no
known value in fighting a cold.
So many working physicians
protested that the FDA now is
prepared to let a panel of med
lcal experts reconsider the find

dertaken by the same panel
which said in a 1862 report that
there is no acceptable evil

agent is of any value in the

Any drug which lacks certifi-

The special panel, headed by
DR.. Harry Bowling of the Uni

Medicine, already has asked for
an opportunity to reconsider its
report after all comments on
the issue have been submitted
to the FDA. Larrick said they
would be given the opportunity.

Pep Pills Won't

such pills actually may have
the opposite effect. Why? They
tend to impair the students
judgment both while he's study

Wendt, who has conducted

don't realize the potential ef-

pills.

are supposed to Offer" he said.

The California state Depart

Of the 1902 million acres in

only half are good to prime

Already, urban development

California Losing
Good Farm Land
SAN FRANCISCO CUPID

SAN FRANClSCO (UPl) -
Southern CALIFORNIA; sunny Or,
ange County used to live up to
its name: the orange and lem
on trees stretched in orderly
rows as far as the eye could
see.
Today, bulldozers are roofing
out the trees at the rate Of 5000
acres a year, and Orange
County is virtually out of the
running as a citrus producer.
Santa Clara County, a lush
food basket at the southern
edge Of San Francisco Bay
was Americas biggest straw
berry-producing county 10 years
ago; it also grew half Of the
worlds pruneS and a giant
share of the nations pears. But
today, fruit and vegetable trad
ers in Santa Clara County are
talking about importing crops
instead Of exporting them.
California is losing - foot by
foot, acre by acre - one Of its
most precious possessions: its
rich, incredibly productive farm
lands.
The land is not disappearing.
It's still there, and it's just
as fertile as ever. But it's be-
ing buried under an avalanche
of freewayS, factories, shopping
centers and, most of all, hous-
eS.
AS California continues its
dizzying population climb and
its headlong rush toward ur-
banization, the cities are splash
ing outward into the country
side. They don't grow up the
hillsideS and mountains be-
cause it's too expensive to level
building sites there; they pour
instead down the fertile valleys
that have helped make Califor-
MIA the nations biggest food
producer.
California Problems
For years, people have fret
ted over CALIFORNIA; growth -
over the loss of natural scenery
over the problems of providing
housing and fire departments
and social welfare and trans
portation for the burgeoning
millions.
But now there's a new worry:
