A FARMER'S VIEW
George C. Roeding is one of the best known agriculturists of California. He was for several terms president of the State agricultural Society. He has made a comprehensive study of horticulture and viticulture, making numerous visits to Europe. He has had an important part in developing the olive and fig industries in California. It was he who brought the blastophagi from Asia which is an essential in pollinization of the Calimyrna fig. No one speaks with higher authority as regards California agricultural interests than does George C. Roedling.
(By George C. Roeding)
I engaged in agricultural work when I was a mere boy in the year of 1885 in Presno county, when the City of Presno had a population of 2,000 people and the great plains around the town were devoted to dry farming. In my time I have seen the fruit development of this state grow practically from nothing until its production includes Apples, Pears, Cherries, Plums, Prunes, Peaches, Apricots, Figs Almonds, Walnuts, Olives, Citrus fruits and table and Raisin Grapes.
Yes, it was the spirit of the west which dominated. Otherwise the fruits from California which may now be found in every home in the union would have been displaced by European products. This is not campaign talk, but a true statement of facts. One would infer that dealers in fruit who operated along the Atlantic shores would have been pleased in those early days to receive the fruits from California at reasonable prices. The exact contrary was the case, for the importers used all the ingenuity they possessed to discourage the development of our horticultural industries.
mosphere of the farmer because he is a farmer born and bred and he can picture more keenly the wants of a farmer than any man who has occupied the Presidential chair in my memory.
Calvin Coolidge is a peerless leader. He alone of the presidential candidates gives us assurance that the protection of our California industries will be maintained. He has the people's interests at heart. Every step he has taken has been in the direction of the upbuilding of the country on cane and sound lines, placing the farming interests where they belong. This is California's opportunity to show its gratitude to the man who has accomplished so much already for agriculture and who is so keenly alive to the farmer's problems.
We need Calvin Coolidge as President and when election day comes I hope the farmers of California will do their duty by voting the Republican ticket and keeping our standard bearer in office.
LET'S GET TOGETHER
The story of progress in Southern California is a story of co-operation. The tremendous things which have been accomplished and which are now under way have been made possible only through teamwork.
Where everyone works together to a common end almost anything is possible; where there are fractional opposition, division of interests and working at cross purposes almost nothing is possible.
To an exceptional degree, the Southland has realized and utilized this power of united effort. The results have amazed the world.
Some weeks ago the Los Angeles Times suggested and advocated that Colorado power problem aIf we can get together program we can get to power program.
If we don't we will never where.
The key to the whole Cooper plan is the dam. On the water for domestic purpureation in the lower reaches trol, silt precipitation and of flow throughout the wet seasons.
Instead of a series of segregated problems it is problem. The answer to answer to all.
The Times believes that war is the one which has given for the problem Southern California's demands. That answer is done.
When the dam is built will be there. It will be creation of erecting power transmission lines. If they are created at the joint for the joint benefit of all at interest and the own equitably and under compulsional jurisdiction, this problem solved.
That condition can only about by co-operation, by sectional and selfish introspection common purpose.
Each of the interests with all the others for rights on the Colorado particular field to serve exceptions, these fields to lap. There is an abundance for all. The Federal mission is vested by law power and duty of supervivalribution of this power ready to serve in that can be no quarrel as to
would have been displaced by European products. This is not campaign talk, but a true statement of facts. One would infer that dealers in fruit who operated along the Atlantic shores would have been pleased in those early days to receive the fruits from California at reasonable prices. The exact contrary was the case, for the importers used all the ingenuity they possessed to discourage the development of our horticultural industries.
We did not have enough to contend with in trying to secure reasonable freight rates and quicker transportation, enabling our products to be sold at reasonable prices to the consumer, but we were also confronted with the bitter, unrelenting emmity of the importers when we undertook to obtain tariff protection. Whenever there was a tariff hearing they were on the ground with their cudgels and axes, ready to use them ruthlessly in the destruction of our industries which gave so much promise if we were only given sufficient protection to compete with the cheap labor and low rates of transportation from Europe.
An experience of my own and several others from California, when the hearing on the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill was being held at Washington, D.C., in the year 1908, may be of interest.
Every importing house in the east had representatives on the floor, never losing an opportunity to denounce California fruits and to declare their inferiority to the imported. At that particular time our raisin industry was menaced by the importation of the Zarte current, a trade name for the Black Corinth grape of Greece. The importers in their arguments before the committee went so far as to represent that as the trade name implied this dried fruit was a currant, and not a product of a garpe vine, nd in consequence of this did not come into competition with our raisins, because no currants were dried in the United States.
After many years of this intense and bitter struggle we at last obtained definite recognition of the justice of our pleas for the protection of California's agricultural interests.
Practically our entire scheme of agricultural production rests upon a protective tariff. Without it we cannot prosper. I do not like to contemplate what would happen to California if roads were made upon the tariff schedule.
Where everyone works together to a common end almost anything is possible; where there are factional opposition, division of interests and working at cross purposes almost nothing is possible.
To an exceptional degree, the Southland has realized and utilized this power of united effort. The results have amazed the world.
Some weeks ago the Los Angeles Times suggested and advocated that all the communities of Southern California should unite in a project to bring from the Colorado River the water which all need or soon will need.
The suggestion met with instant approval. There has not been a dissenting voice. At Pasadena last Wednesday delegates from forty Southern California communities voted unanimously in favor of a working plan for bringing the gigantic project to success. That plan is now under way. It will succeed because it has united support.
Consider another example of an opposite character. The Los Angeles Municipal Power Bureau at two successive elections went before the people with plans for big bond issues to carry on its activities. Here there was not united support. A considerable element of the community, including the Times, was dissatisfied with the performances of the Power Bureau in the past and with its promises for the future. Its bond proposals were twice voted on and twice rejected.
The situation created was serious. There was danger that the whole investment of the people in the municipal power enterprise would be lost. Disinterested engineers of the State Railroad Commission were called in to make a survey of the real status and the actual needs of the Power Bureau. They presented a program calling for the maintenance and expansion of the bureau's legitimate activities for the next three years at a total net cost to the people of sixteen million dollars. This budget represented a saving to the taxpayers of twelve million dollars, that is, it showed how sixteen million dollars would finance a program of development which the Power Bureau's engineers had said would cost twenty eight million dollars.
Upon the presentation o fthis program, with satisfactory guarantees that it would be carried out, the prevailing opposition was removable.
After many years of this intense and bitter struggle we at last obtained definite recognition of the justice of our pleas for the protection of California's agricultural interests.
Practically our entire scheme of agricultural production rests upon a protective tariff. Without it we cannot prosper. I do not like to contemplate what would happen to California if roads were made upon the tariff schedules, without which our industries must be abandoned.
We have rested in security for a period of years but in the present campaign the tariff issue is again to the fore. We have the record of votes of Senator LaFollette and they prove that he does not favor protection for us. We have the platform of the Democrats, and that party still stands for the free trade principle that Champ Clark and Oscar Underwood stood for when they were members of the Ways and Means Committee.
New problems are constantly confronting our farmers and fruit growers. Insect pests and fungus diseases are on the increase and the necessity of fertilizing, spraying and fumigating our orchards and vineyards and adopting the most efficient and modern methods of cultivating and scientifically operating our properties is necessary in order to maintain the high standard of quality in our fruits. Unless we are placed in a position to compete with like products from the old world our industries cannot succeed. Tariff protection is more essential today than it ever was.
Today we have a man administering the affairs of this great country, who has demonstrated on every occasion his ability to economize in the conduct of our government affairs. He drives keen enjoyment from his work on the farm, even if he is President of the United States. He has the ut-
total net cost to the people of sixteen million dollars. This budget represented a saving to the taxpayers of twelve million dollars, that is, it showed how sixteen million dollars would finance a program of development which the Power Bureau's engineers had said would cost twenty eight million dollars.
Upon the presentation o this program, with satisfactory guarantees that it would be carried out, the previous legitimate opposition was removed and the Railroad Commission's recommendations for a sixteen million dollar bond issue carried by the largest majority ever given such a proposal in this city.
For months an years, even, the South west has been split by factional differences over the development and control of the Colorado river.
Power has been the chief bone of contention. There have been as many plans advanced for realizing the river's vast power potentialities as there have been parties at interest. Each plan provided for the service of one of many groups, more or less to the disadvantage of the others, and consequently meeting with their stout opposition.
There have been bickering and bitterness, controversy and confusion—and no progress.
One faction introduced a bill in Congress providing for carrying out its particular plan. So far from having united support, an essential part of this plan is opposed by the onwers of a majority of the acronym it was supposed to benefit. This, together with opposition on other grounds from other quarters, has effectually killed any chances for success the plan may ever have had.
In the opinion of The Times the unity of effort now exerted in favor of the Colorado river aqueduct points the way to a happy solution of the
Colorado power problem as well.
If we can get together on a water program we can get together on a power program.
If we don't we will never get anywhere.
The key to the whole Colorado River plan is the dam. On that depends water for domestic purposes, water for power generation, water for irrigation in the lower reaches, flood control, silt precipitation and equalization of flow throughout the wet and dry seasons.
Instead of a series of separate and segregated problems it is really one problem. The answer to one is the answer to all.
The Times believes that that answer is the one which has already been given for the problem of meeting Southern California's domestic water needs. That answer is co-operation.
When the dam is built the power will be there. It will be only a question of erecting power houses and transmission lines. If those facilities are created at the joint expense and for the joint benefit of all the parties at interest and the ower allocated equitably and under competent Federal jurisdiction, the problem will be solved.
That condition can only be brought about by co-operation, by a sinking of sectional and selfish interests for a common purpose.
Each of the interests now at war with all the others for prior power rights on the Colorado has its own particular field to serve. With minor exceptions, these fields do not overlap. There is an abundance of power for all. The Federal Power Commission is vested by law with the power and duty of supervising the distribution of this power. It stands ready to serve in that capacity. There can be no quarrel as to the affirness

Each of the interests now at war with all the others for prior power rights on the Colorado has its own particular field to serve. With minor exceptions, these fields do not overlap. There is an abundance of power for all. The Federal Power Commission is vested by law with the power and duty of supervising the distribution of this power. It stands ready to serve in that capacity. There can be no quarrel as to the affirness of Uncle Sam.
The Times can conceive of no adequate reason why the private power companies, the Los Angeles Municipal Power Bureau, Nevada Arizona and any other interests which will benefit from the development of Colorado River power cannot meet on a common basis, share the costs, share the profits and, in so doing, confer upon the whole Southwest the incalculable benefits of cheap and unlimited power with its concomitants of abundant water, flood protection and irrigation for our thirsty lands.
When a bill that equitably represents the interests of all concerned is introduced in Congress it will pass because there will be no opposition to it.
The history of the Colorado river controversy has abundantly proven that pulling separately will never get us anywhere.
Let's try pulling together.
