Redman of Seattle, regional wage stabilization board agricultural wage director, that the board would take a liberal view of adjustments, Kittitas valley farm agencies are moving to secure a review of farm wage ceilings for this area.

Redman told a mass meeting of farm employers here that the farm regulation is not tailored Pacific Northwest conditions after he had listened to an hour and half of denuciations of the order and of "bureaucratic meddling" in general. Back to Farmers H. K. McCullough, chairman of the Kittitas county farm leaders' council, at the conclusion asked those present to take the problem back to their local farm organizations and "go on from Joe Dwyer, Ellensburg rancher and Democratic county chairman, said he had contacted members of the Washington congressional delegation with a request they seek a review of the wage order. He said he had asked that the base year in figuring farm wage increases be changed from 1950 to 1951 and a 15 per cent increase be approved, rather than the 10 per cent now allowed.

Idaho, The cost of Bonner county school improvements slated under 000 bond issue to be voted on March 3 will be one of the smallest items any taxpayers' budget, the Bonner County Citizens' committee reported today. "It is not true," the committee said, "that construction of the five needed buildings and making of other improvements will constitute a heavy burden. In fact, local taxes are not a burden, but are among the economical items in any citizens' spending.

On that valuation, however, a citizen pays $3.15 in Idaho state tax, $18.18 county tax, $8.55 general school tax, $22.50 district school tax. $40.50 city tax and $4.50 highway district tax--a total of $97.38.
