Radiological Monitoring
Stations Installed In City
M. W. Larmour, Civil Defense
Director for Graham says the
Radiological Monitoring stations
for Graham have ' now been 4 -
stalled at the Police Station, Sta-
tion KSWA, and the Graham Gen-
eral Hospital. This is one of the
first such installations in this
part of the state and Mr. Lar-
mour has a letter of congratula-
tions from the State Civil Defense
headquarters on Graham's inter-
est and progressiveness in being
able to train and register 28 oper-
ators for these stations.
These stations have various
kinds of sensitive instruments
measuring radioactive fallout,
computing the danger of fallout
in this area from an explosion
elsewhere; for testing food and
water to determine if it can be
used, for testing exposed people,
and, by means of short wave com-
munication with the Weather Bu-
reau and various C. D. Stations,
will be able to warn the people
of an approaching dangerous fall-
out.
As the instruments could be da-
'62 Wheat Support Depends
On Conserving Diverted Acres
Growers who want price-sup-
port protection for their 1962
wheat stabilization program. Mr.
C. B. Stowe. Chairman. Young
County Agricultural Stabiliza-
tion and Conservation Committee
points out' that wheat growers
will have to take an extra step
this year if they want to be elig-
ible for price support on their
1962 crop. •
fn other years, fie explains, It
was necessary for a producer to
comply with his farm wheat acre-
age allotment in order to qualify
for loans or purchase agreements
on hie wheat crop.1 In 1962, such'
compliance is still required, but
there is an additional requirement'
that an intention - to - partici-
patr form be filed and that the
acreage diverted from, the pro-
duction of wheat be devoted to an
approved conservation use. Pro-
gram payments will be made to
producers for conserving the di-
verted acreage.
Acccrding to the Chairman, the
1362 wheat allotment notices sent
to glowers before the wheat mar-
keting quota referendum last
August reflected a 10 percent re-
duction below what the allotment
would have been under previous
legislative authority.
Under legislation governing the
1962 wheat program, this 10 per-
cent diverted acreage figure is
the minimum acreage which also
must be devoted to soil - conserv-
ing uses in order to comply with
program provisions. The diverted
acreas put to an approved con-
servation use must be in addition
to the normal acreage devoted to
conservation uses on the farm.
Chairman Stowe suggests that
farmers check with the ASCS
County ■ Office about approved
conservation parctices which may
be carried out on diverted wheat
acreage in complying with the
1962 wheat stabilization program.
