The new order, which goes into effect April 16, will allow the 3.8 milk to sell for 22 cents, the same price that regular milk now sells for. Four per cent milk will drop from 24 to 23 cents a quart and the 5 per cent fluid from 28 to cents a quart. The board also granted an optional store differential at quart on two-quart sales, Board members said the optional store differential was granted in response to long-standing popular demand. There has been no differential between milk bought in stores and home delivered since 1935.

It was indicated by board members that the price reductions and increased butterfat content were made possible by producers who at their February hearing here said they wanted a better product to go to the public at no extra cost.

(State Senate Votes Pay Increases For Top Officials SALEM (U.P) -Gov. Paul Patterson and other top elected state officials would get substantial pay increases under a bill passed by the senate yesterday. But a measure which would increase salaries of supreme court judges got snagged in the senate. The bill, as it came from the ways and means committee, would have set their salaries at $12,000 a year. It was sent back to the committee with specific instruction to make the figure $12,500.

The salary bill raised Gov. Patterson's pay from $11,000 to 000. Under the bill, he would also continue to get his present $100 month for expenses. Three other officials -secretary of state, state treasurer and attorney general -would get $10,000 instead of the present $8800. The salary for superintendent of public instruction would be' upped from $7920 to: $10,000 and the labor commissioner from $7920 to $9000.

William C. Bilson, Modesto, Cal. 1 Few Casualties Marines: suffered "very few" casualties in the hour-long fight for Vegas hill despite heavy Communist artillery and mortar barrages. "When we got up there they were pouring in artillery and mortars right down our throats," said Pfc. Felix Lopez, 18, of Sinuba, Cal.

"We could have put mosquito out there and they would have hit the damned thing." Allied artillery was also heavy. On nearby Reno hill, meanwhile, the Communists' hold there remained unchallenged. Reduced Power Supply Forecast SEATTLE (U.P)A limited supply of Pacific Northwest hydroelectric power for next month was forecast by Assistant Bonneville Power Manager Herschel F. Jones. In a wire to Northwest Manager V.

M. Murray, Bonneville power administration, Jones said "The current estimates of power for April, based on the continuation of present conditions, indicate hydroelectric power will not be available to serve about 50 per cent of interruptible loads during four to hours each day, five or six days a week." Jones blamed the weather conditions in the upper regions of the Columbia river. He said the ground had been reported powder dry in many areas, indicating the snow pack was not as good as in previous years. Murray said the interruptible power was usually allocated to large users, like aluminum companies, for pickup on off-hours. It is the first supply to be cut down in case of emergency.

Many power users, however, were considering the use of steam generated power to carry them past the critical times which might lie ahead, Jones said.

Coquille River Closure Voted SALEM (U.P)-A bill closing the Coquille river to commercial fishing was passed today by the senate and sent to the house. The measure launched a debate lasting more than an hour between proponents of sports fishing and members who argued there were enough fish in the Coquille for both sports and commercial anglers. Sen. George Ulett, Coquille, one of the authors of the bill, said many of the 34 commercial fishermen on the Coquille were actually engaged in lumbering or other full-time occupations and conducted their fishing businesses on a part-time basis.

They had adequate incomes from other sources, he said. The lengthy debate forced the senate to call an afternoon session, the first meeting on Saturday afternoon so far this year.

The on pupils, who pride selves having the only school student government in Albany, got behind Patty Zerr's campaign and elected her to the office of president, after she promised to "faithfully execute the duties of the office president." Others elected to office included Frankie Simmons, a sixth grader, who won the vice presidency; Joyce Deleye, a fifth grader, secretary; and Ronald Schram, sixth grader, treasurer.

Miss Zerr also is in the sixth grade at Waverly. The officers will serve a threemonth term. The new president triumphed Bob Harden and Barbara Peterson. Harden, who was said to have spent most of his spring vacation printing campaign posters, told those assembled he was "a man of action--not words," even though his speech which ran approximately one minutewas the longest of all. There was a lot of boy student vs, girl student sentiment displayed during the campaign speeches, but more often it' was a case of each student cheering for his favorite.

The campaign for the various offices lasted for nearly a week, and in the final stages of the race, followers of nominees paraded through the halls and into rooms broadcasting the virtues of their candidates. "Don't Be a Slob, Vote for Bob," was the slogan of Bob Scheuchenpflug, who lost in -the battle for the post of secretary. Presidential candidate Barbara Peterson asked students to "Vote for Barbara Peterson," because "She's Nice to Teachers." All in all, the campaign was conducted on a high level. Most of the nominees, out to make the best of this chance to enhance the of democracy, stuck to straight promises. Little doubt was left they would carry out their promises--most of them said they would work to the best of their abilities to better Waverly school.

Dulles Hopes for Prompt Exchange Of War Prisoners (Continued from Page One) possibility. of resumption of truce talks, a Pentagon source said he was optimistic on that score. Number of Americans Unknown American officials were unable to forecast the number of sick and wounded prisoners who might be involved in an exchange. They said the Communists had admitted they hold approximately 12,000 prisoners of all nationalities, including 3,100 Americans and 1,000 other UN troops. The remainder would be South Koreans.

The United Nations, on the other hand, holds 121,000 prisoners, 000 Koreans and 21,000 Chinese, So far as is known here, the exchange would be the first since the Korean War started June 25, 1950. Taft Gives View Senate Republican Leader Robert A. Taft (O.) described the news from Tokyo as "a good sign." But like State Department officials he was cautious. "But I wouldn't resume negotiations unless I thought beforehand that we could practically settle it," Taft "I'd want some advance assurances that certain basic issues were settled." Some officials called the Communists' prisoner proposal a "startling development" which could lead to peace, if the Reds are sincere and not bent on trickery, That, a Pentagon spokesman said, "is a big if." He recalled the hope aroused by the Communists' original agreement to discuss truce and how those hopes have since been dashed. State Files Two Condemnations Two more condemnation suits incidental to proposed widening of the Noble Slough--Foster section of U.S.

highway No. 20 have been filed in circuit court here by the state highway department. In the one case A. L. and Daisy Weddle are named defendants while J.

F. McGlothern and wife and Fay Parsley are defendants in the other. From the Weddles, the state agency alleges, it needs ,044 of an acre of land for which $150 has been offered and a strip containing .96 of an acre of the McGlothern land is required, valued, in the estimation of the department, at $168. Car Owner Seeks $10,500 Damages Damages totaling $10,500 are asked in a complaint filed in circuit court here by Lovita Allison, who names Kenneth and Dorothy Ripley as defendants. The plaintiff alleges that her car was parked on Long st: in Sweet Home Jan.

19, 1953, when a car owned by the defendants backed out of a driveway and across the street, striking her car with such force that she was severely injured. Concert Last night's final Community number, the Gershwin Concert orchestra, attracted near-capacity audience that was by no presentation means disappointed by the of an all-Gershwin program. Applause which greeted the sev. eral selections and arrangements fully equaled that accorded performance on the 1952-53 season. any This all despite inroads of influenza which have plagued the Gershwin orchestra during its cur.

rent tour. Jesus Maria Sanroma, concert pianist who regularly serves as soloist and accompanist for the Gershwin orchestra, was unable to appear because of illness which has incapacitated him for the last week or more, and that has likewise kept his wife in hotel rooms, Ably substituting for Sanroma, however, was Mario Bragiotti, New York, with Columbia Artists Management, internationally known pianist, whose work not only prompted acclaim from the audience but moved the orchestra itself to join in the applause, particularly following his rendition of "Rhapsody in Blue," always a favorite with American audiences but actually enhanced by his inter. pretation and that of the orchestra. It was thus fitting that "Rhapsody in Blue" was reserved as the climactic finale of the concert. Though she required attention of a physician during the evening, since she, too, had been attacked by the "flu bug," Carolyn Long heroically went through with her vocal solos and duets, with Theo dor Uppman, baritone, singing selections from musical comedies and from "Porgy and Bess." At no time did her voice betray her handicap.

While "Rhapsody in Blue" probably elicited the greatest applause accorded any number on the program, the Concerto in F. for piano and orchestra and Gershwin's seine tillating "American in Paris" drew hardly, fewer plaudits. While George Gershwin's compositions for the most part are of a similar type, the Gershwin Festival was anything but 1 monotonous, for the arrangements offered last night provided delightful variation which effectively relieved the entertainment from taint of sameness. Contributing not a little to suecess of the festival was youthful Lorin Maazel, conductor, who masterfully directed the performance with aid of a personality made to order for spectators and an artistry well adapted to his task. The informal entrance of the orchestra was embellished by amuse ing incidents such as toppling of music stands and testing of chairs that served rather to please than disconcert the audience and that launched the concert amid an ate mosphere of intimacy and tion and which pervaded thenceforth.

and nominations from the floor completed the list of campaigners. Others who participated in the campaign were Larry Carlile and Armond Borde, vice president; and Jolene Luikko and Nancy Woody, treasurer. Student councilmen hold meetings once each week to discuss problems of the school, and to deal with wrongdoers with whom the council has been asked to deal. Waverly students make all playground and lunchroom rules, and provide punishment for breakers of the rules. Their biggest job is to handle the lunchroom activity, but they also charged with responsibility of writing and staging skits which are presented each Friday, with from 60-80 parents on hand to witness the event.

Supervisors, who rarely are re called upon to supervise, are Mrs. Mary Kreger and Principal Arnold Turnbull. The idea for the grade school student government came from Turnbull, who has promoted the activity in other schools in which he has taught. This is the first year of student government in Waverly school, and both students and teachers are impressed with it. During the first elections students had little idea of what was expected of them, but now they shape the campaign around what they expect to do.

The "democracy" lesson students undergo is now not forced upon them, but sought by them, and they make the most of the campaign, to enable them to get little better idea of what democracy is all about.
