Growers Exchange Adds New Shippers Two Important Packing Houses Added to Its Membership Among more important additions to the ranks of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange during the past month are the Hillside Packing Association, a newly organized co-operative unit at Lindsay, and W. S. Sparr, the well-known Corona grower and shipper. Mr. Sparr, with 100 acres of bearing citrus property at Corona, recently joined the Orange Heights Fruit Association, one of the larger exchange houses in that district. The Sparr property consists of 78 acres of navels, 5 acres of lemons, and 14 acres of miscellaneous orange varieties. This fine block of fruit coming under the Sunbist banner is another tribute to exchange marketing as indicated by the number of established growers and shippers of many years standing who have recently joined the organization. The Hillside Packing Association will associate with the Lipsday-Merryman Fruit Exchange, one of the three district exchanges in Tulare county. The new association represents a large block of good acreage and is expected to be one of the strong units in the district. The directors are: J. J. Richardson, L. C. Keiley, R. S. McNellil, D. H. Orr, and A. H. Kausen. In acknowledging receipt of a box of oranges received as an award in a radio contest, an orange enthusiast writes to the California Fruit Growers' Exchange, "Sunkist oranges have been my favorite fruit for some time and also of my family. We average three dozen oranges a week and rarely need medicine. This, by the way, should not be mentioned, as I am in the drug business." Since this California orange booster is the proprietor of a drug store in an eastern state, the exchange did not feel that they were breaking faith with him in telling the story without the name and address. We agree with them that the story is too good to keep. Co-operation vs. Blind Fighting For the second time, World war veterans of California will "join up" over the radio in a statewide initiation ceremony inducing into the various American Legion posts several hundred members. On February 29, the radio initiation will be conducted by State Commander Phil Dodson over station KYA, San Francisco, and by former State and National Commander John R. Quinn, over KNX, Los Angeles. Last year the radio initiation was a nation-wide affair and 30,000 members were taken into the organization at that time. Plans are being made by State Adjutant James K. Flak to induct a great class of members into the three hundred odd posts of the Legion in California who will be "listening in" on the initiation. Preparations for the coming visit to California of Mrs. Irene McIntyre Walbridge national president of the Amer- Co-operation vs. Blind Fighting Before an opponent of marketing co-operation is able to make inroads upon the membership of any co-operative's membership, he must devise some method by which to entice the grower away from his organization. The most common and most effective means in use today is that of paying to a few particular growers what appears to be a price slightly above that which the co-operative might be able to pay. With this bait, some growers unfamiliar with the tactics of enemies of co-operation, are invigilated into cancelling their contracts and leaving their cooperative, says a writer in Citrus Leaves. Time and experience have shown that a co-operative run on a business-like basis will bring to the grower the full value of his crop. If, therefore, a speculator, for example, has paid several growers more than the average price to be paid by the co-operative, the speculator must have assumed a loss. But that is part of his program. The over-payment is but his investment in a well defined program, namely, to eliminate the co-operative from his field and then be in a position to dictate and dominate, to pay to the grower for his crop just as little or just as much as the buyer wishes to pay. In other words, the opponent of co-operation is willing to sacrifice a little here and a little there if by such an investment he can get rid of the co-operative and get control of the grower. He is willing to sacrifice today for he intends to reap his reward tomorrow. And in every instance, you, the grower, are going to be the one who is to pay the price. You might get more money for your fruit from the speculator this year and next year; but visualize the time when your cooperative is driven from the field by such tactics. Where would you then be? Back in the same chaotic state which brought agriculture to the very threshold of serifdom. In those days when the farmer handed over his pork an this beef, his corn and his tobacco, his oranges and his pears and got—what? Just what the speculator wished to pay him. No more. Like an arrogant ruler tossing a hambone to a starving servant, the speculator cast a few pennies at the feet of agriculture and said: "Take it or leave it." And the farmer had no alternative but to accept the crust and be thankful. The advent of sensible co-operative marketing has done much to eliminate Preparations for the coming visit to California of Mrs. Irene McIntyre Walbridge, national president of the American Legion Auxiliary, have been completed by the state headquarters of the organization here. Mrs. Walbridge will arrive in California on February 18 at will remain one week, prior to sail for the Hawaiian islands. Mrs. Edu Duvol, national chapeau of the Eight and Forty Society of the auxiliary, is accompanying Mrs. Walbridge. American Legion Posts will join with the units of the auxiliary in entertaining Mrs. Walbridge in Los Angeles, Sacramento, Hollywood, and in Oakland. Mrs. Walbridge is especially concerned with an inspection of the child welfare work of the auxiliary, one of the principal activities of that organization She will visit each of the veterans' hospitals in the state, as well as the various children's hospitals. Headed by Mayor James Rolph Jr., Col. Henry G. Mathewson, representing the American Legion and others, a citizens' committee is to welcome Sir Neville Wilkinson and Lady Wilkinson of London to San Francisco on Monday as the first of a series of public functions connected with the showing in San Francisco of Titania's Palace, a miniature building housing the queen of the fairies and shown here for the benefit of the children's welfare work of the American Legion Auxiliary. San Francisco units of the auxiliary will receive the benefits to be derived from the showing of Titania's palace, which represents 30 years of work on the part of Sir Neville Wilkinson, who has sent his creation to America, following a long period of showings in Europe for the benefit of sufferers from the World war. Following the San Francisco showing, the palace will be exhibited in Los Angeles and then in the Pacific Northwest. Mrs. Elizabeth I. Drendell of San Francisco is general chairman of the committee from the auxiliary which has charge of the exhibitions of the palace in California. Major General P. C. Harris of Washington, D.C., has accepted appointment as national director of education and vocational training of war orphans, a new position created by the American Legion, according to word received by State Adjutant James K. Fisk, who will be asked to submit recommendations on behalf of the veterans of California on the appointment of a regional director for this section of the new committee. A bill has been introduced in congress to change the existing laws whereby workers are operated by M be? Back in the same chaotic state which brought agriculture to the very threshold of seridom. In these days when the farmer handed over his pork an this beef, his corn and his tobacco, his oranges and his pears and got—what? Just what the speculator wished to pay him. No more. Like an arrogant ruler tossing a hambone to a starving servant, the speculator cast a few pennies at the feet of agriculture and said: "Take it or leave it." And the farmer had no alternative but to accept the crust and be thankful. The advent of sensible co-operative marketing has done much to eliminate this condition. One need but analyze numerous branches of agriculture to realize what tremendous advances have been made in behalf of the farmer of the United States by co-operative organizations. One result of joint effort has been the education of growers concerning market values. The co-operative has driven out andabatism or blind fighting and in its place has substituted intelligent and orderly distribution and marketing. The speculator who once waxed rich on the farmer has had a large slice cut out of his juicy pie. Pickings are not so good today. And some believe that the best way to bring back those lucrative "old days" is by tearing down co-operative marketing activity, by striking at the roots of co-operative organization. To accomplish such a purpose, enemies of co-operation trade upon the cupidity and selfishness of some growers. They offer them a few cents more. The grower accepts it. Not always without a pang of consciousness, but he usually excuses his act by assuring himself that he is but one of many, that his neighbors will stick with the co-operative and keep it alive, thus protecting the industry. But—suppose the growers of a community all were seized with the same desire? The co-operative would perish and the growers would awaken one fine morning to find that they were at the peril and mercy of the speculator and unable to cope with his tactics. Their friend and protector would be drying his bones in the dumpyard. Despite the fact that co-operative Major General P. C. Harris of Washington, D.C., has accepted appointment as national director of education and vocational training of war orphans, a new position created by the American Legion, according to word received in State Adjutant James K. Fisk, who will be asked to submit recommendations on behalf of the veterans of California on the appointment of a regional director for this section of the new committee. A bill has been introduced in congress to change the existing laws whereby government compensation to or for children of war veterans terminates when they reach the age of 18 years and provide that payment shall continue until completion of education and training. The American Legion is backing this bill, according to Fisk. Three Months' Record Of Contesting Hens Orange county areas outside the national reserves should be provided with adequate protection against fires, was the conclusion arrived at by the Orange County Forest Protective Association in regular session at Orange city hall last week, according to John Ragan, chairman of the group. After making a thorough survey of fire hazards in the county, the newly-organized protective association expects to seek county and state aid. Satisfactory arrangements for work within the national forest boundaries are already assured through co-operation with the federal government and the county. Extension Forester Woodbridge Metcalf and Forester Sanford of Los Angeles county were present at the meeting. Legal machinery for the efficient control work is being worked out with the assistance of these forest experts. Forest Ranger Bert Stephenson is co-operating very closely with the association. A meeting of the organization is scheduled for Monday, March 12, to which all citizens vitally interested in county forest protection work are invited. ANAHEIM GAZETTE Another Gold Strike Reported in Nevada Mushroom Town Springs Up Almost Over Night Nevada awoke Monday to find a new city existing in its southern desert. Washmonip, the Shoshone Indian word for gold, came into being almost overnight as a result of a new gold strike that bears the carmarks of developing an important and permanent camp. The strike was reported by Ira McFarland, former state engineer; Fred Gilbert and Legal Gilbert. The Gilberts made the discovery 32 miles west of Tonopah, three years ago, that resulted in the town of Gilbert. The new strike is at the base of Skull mountain, 53 miles from Beatty and 20 miles from the Tonopah-Las Vegas highway. Mark Leifer, old Nevada "desert rat" mole the original discovery at Washmonip. Leifer it was who discovered the Candy mine at Jarbridge, in the far northern section of Nevada. Samples from the Leifer strike returns assay values of approximately $1000 metal content, principally gold. A second strike was made about 5000 feet from Leifer's workings, from which an average sample, taken by Fred Gilbert across four feet, assayed $996. A town of tents sprang up almost immediately, and the ground for miles in every direction was staked within a few hours after word of the find was circulated in the mining communities of the south. Adjacent to Leifer's ground are the old workings of the Horn silver mine, operated by Mormons in 1853. THINGS WORTH KNOWING Q.-Who won the Indian marathon last June?

WE CAN CHOOSE BEST Complaint is made by Secretary of Labor Davis that foreign governments object to receiving back those of their subjects who emigrate to the United States and then are deported because of their undesirability as residents among us. He says they are glad to get rid of their criminals and defectives. He goes as far as to say that there is active effort to send them to the United States. Be that as it may, it is our own fault if we receive them. We are in a position to take only the best, and we are in no position to blame other nations if we do not do so. When we have a quota of 30,000 a year from a nation and 100,000 seek to come, why should we take the first 30,000 who apply? We would not do that as individuals if we were buying apples. We would make sure that we were getting 30,000 sound immigrants out of 100,000 applicants, sound in body, mind and character. If we neglect even an effort to do this, how can we complain when we seek to send back the unsound ones and the nations will not receive them? We have a more or less perfunctory examination of applicants. It is a negative one. We look for specific defects for which we may hold them to be ineligible. We should get from the negative to the positive side of the question. Instead of our proving their unfitness, we should require them to prove their fitness. Place the burden of proof of desirability upon the applicants and we would not need to worry so much about deporting them or what they might do to make deportation desirable. We are in a position to adopt a strictly selective system of immigration. If we fail to do that, nobody save ourselves is to blame when we get some who are undesirable.
