Copelin Announces Budget Increases Tied to Education Centers
Copelin said the commission approved merit based salary increases for 1972-73 and would determine future raises by the commission rather than admin action. Funds target educational exhibits at the Conservation Education Center in El Reno and Tulsa Fairgrounds, with a mobile display unit planned. The budget also allocates about 346000 for Medicine Park Fish Hatchery renovations and funding for the Regional Game and Fish Office at Muskogee. Copelin, who joined the department in 1987, had served as acting director since 1988 after Wendell Beyer’s resignation.

Strike Proves Hindrance To Drug Shipment
US attorney Whitney North Seymour Jr testified before a congressional subcommittee that the recent shipping strike disrupted heroin flow into the United States more than anti narcotics enforcement. He urged preventive education as the key to curb narcotics abuse and cited enforcement failures. Rep. Lester L. Wolff warned narcotics trade enjoys protection in high places in Thailand, hindering pressure on bases. ADA LIVESTOCK: A total of 2,548 cattle sold on Tuesday with prices mixed as stocker and feeder cattle held steady to strong while plainer cattle fell.

Soviet Trade Limits and Cattle Tick Quarantine Notice
The report notes limited Soviet demand for U.S. farm products beyond soybeans and meat, with fruit and vegetables mostly imported from Eastern Europe and developing nations. In Washington, the Agriculture Department warns cattle tick inspectors near the U S Mexico border to prevent reinfestation after eliminating the tick in 1943, detailing a quarantine zone and inspector coverage. Plant exchanges are cautioned as pests can hitchhike on plants, risking spread of diseases to local flora, with strict compliance urged.
