TAYLOR Executive Secretary Agricultural Council of California EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the third in a series of articles by Ralph H. Taylor, executive secretary of the Agricultural Council of California, on the challenging question: "What Does the Future Hold for American Agriculture—After the War?" Only when wage and living standards abroad have been raised to a somewhat comparable base with those at home can this Nation safely become a free trade Nation—and throw open its gates to the products of other countries, without tariff restrictions or other curbs to protect American producers! That is not simply one man's opinion, nor does it represent just the viewpoint of American agriculture. It is a broad, fundamental policy, dictated by the law of survival and the laws of economics—laws Farmers Required To Endorse 'E' - 'R' Gasoline Coupons Starting March 15, Farmers who buy gasoline for use in their off-the-highway vehicles with "E" and "R" coupons must endorse them when they are exchanged for gasoline, in almost the same manner as other coupon holders do. This is the newest ruling of the Office of Price Administration in its fight against black marketeteers, and was announced today by Paul Barksdale d'Orr, OPA ration chief for eight southern California counties. "After March 15," says d'Orr, "all 'E' and 'R' coupons must be endorsed before they can be exchanged for gasoline, whether the fuel is picked up in a can at a filing station or is delivered by tank wagon into a storage tank on the purchaser's own property. However, instead of writing his name and address on every coupon as in the past, the farmer or other non-highway consumer may endorse a strip or block of coupons with a single signature, if he gives them to his supplier as a unit.

Center — Ph. 2206-2207 Citrus Growers' Fruit Factory Saves Day In War Time Importance of lumber in the war was emphasized in the report of General Manager P. E. Johnson at the annual meeting of the Fruit Growers Supply Company in Los Angeles. For the second consecutive year, lumber consumption in the United States has exceeded production and a recent estimate by the War Production Board indicates that lumber consumption in 1944 may reach 34 billion feet, compared to an estimated production of only 30 billion feet," deed Simpson. "During 1943 production at the Supply Company is increased 37 percent over 1942." Organized 37 years ago when California citrus growers were pressed for box materials at reasonable prices, this purchasing supply affiliate of the California Fruit Growers Exchange supplies exceeding 13 million years in 1943 and more than half of this business was in box stock. Today's members and every California citrus grower as should be grateful for the sight of those pioneer members who had the courage to invest with those at home can this Nation safely become a free trade Nation—and throw open its gates to the products of other countries, without tariff restrictions or other curbs to protect American producers! That is not simply one man's opinion, nor does it represent just the viewpoint of American agriculture. It is a broad, fundamental policy, dictated by the law of survival and the laws of economics—laws which we cannot ignore or violate, except at the risk of destroying our own living standards and plunging our country into financial chaos. There is no escape, in logic or economics, from this basic truth: If America is to become a free trade Nation, as some of our industrialists and many of our governmental theorists are now urging, either our wage scales and our standards must come down, or the standards of the "have not" Nations must be raised. For neither the American farmer, nor the American business man, nor American labor, can compete with the products of cheap-labor-countries, where workers are paid only a few cents a day and live under conditions which no prideful American would tolerate. Yet this is true, too, that the circumference of the earth has been sharply reduced, in a military sense, by ocean-hopping bombers and long-distance fighters—and neither America nor any other Nation can live unto itself alone, unless it bristles with armament and is ready at any moment to fight off aggressors. America learned that lesson at Pearl Harbor! If there is to be peace between Nations in the years and decades that follow this war, there must be better economic as well as political relations between Nations—and world trade will be a vital factor in achieving such understanding. And American farmers, as well as American industrialists, recognize that principle. The American farmer, however, after his experience with "the philosophy of scarcity" during the depression, can hardly be sold now on a program to "share the poverty" of less fortunate Nations. The American farmer believes in a philosophy of abundance—and he knows enough of Nature's laws to know that it is the only sound philosophy, both for this Nation, and for world security. endorsed before they can be exchanged for gasoline, whether the fuel is picked up in a can at a filing station or is delivered by tank wagon into a storage tank on the purchaser's own property. However, instead of writing his name and address on every coupon as in the past, the farmer or other non-highway consumer may endorse a strip or block of coupons with a single signature, if he gives them to his supplier as a unit. He may also use an ordinary pencil, instead of ink or indelible pencil as previously required. FSA Farm Borrowers Top All Records In Food Production SAN FRANCISCO. — Small farmers borrowing from the Farm Security Administration are toping all previous records in their 1944 food production program, an analysis of 500 sample loans showed today. R. W. Hollenberg, Regional Director, said that both new borrowers and debtors who are receiving supplemental loans have made ambitious plans for increases in livestock, milk, eggs and other vital foods, according to his recent survey of the programs of farmers in California, Arizona, Nevada and Utah. "FSA borrowers are more production-minded than ever before," Hollenberg said. "Their farm plans show that only 18 per cent of their gross income will go for family living this year. Eighty-two per cent will be used to maintain and increase food production." He said new borrowers are using three per cent of their FSA loans for family living and old borrowers are using only two per cent. G.O.P. Leader Says Craemer Wins State-Wide Support SAN FRANCISCO, March 15—Hamilton Barnett, State president of the Young Republicans of California, today declared that reports to his office indicated that Justus Craemer, State railroad commissioner and Orange County publisher, is forging rapidly ahead in the race for U.S. Senator at the May primary. Said the leader of the Young Re... State-Wide Support SAN FRANCISCO, March 15—Hamilton Barnett, State president of the Young Republicans of California, today declared that reports to his office indicated that Justus Craemer, State railroad commissioner and Orange County publisher, is forging rapidly ahead in the race for U.S. Senator at the May primary. Said the leader of the Young Republicans: "Justus Craemer's candidacy for the United States Senate is making the same appeal to the voters that Earl Warren's candidacy for Governor made two years ago—and I predict the same result, when the votes are counted. Mr. Craemer's support is statewide, rather than sectional. His background as a successful rural publisher and grower, and his public experience with the problems of our big cities and major industries appeal to all classes of voters. "I have received reports during the past few days from Republicans in nearly every county in the State which indicate very definitely that Mr. Craemer will win the Republican nomination—and, in that event, I am confident he will defeat Senator Downey." Admittedly, an American firm doing business in the Philippines after the war, can't suddenly start paying the Filipinos the union scale paid in San Francisco, without playing havoc with the whole economy of the Islands. But when it is recognized that 50,000 workers on the sugar plantations on Luzon were paid the equivalent of 20 to 30 cents per day before the war—and are now paid only half that by the Japs—it is eloquently apparent that there is plenty of room for gradual improvement. Just as a matter of enlightened selfishness, if for no other reason, this country should do everything in its power to raise wages and improve living standards in the "have not" Nations. And the best way to do that is by example—the example of American firms doing business there, in the American manner, and refusing to exploit cheap labor. If American capital and American industry can be sold on that principle, then, eventually, we will have buyers for American commodities in foreign lands, instead of beggars—and we will have taken a first step toward making free trade possible. But even more important, we will have begun to lay a foundation for world peace. Home Food Production Group Makes Recommendations For Coming Season Representatives of organizations and communities recently met at the Farm Bureau Hall to prepare and approve recommendations for the current year's Home Food Production program. It was pointed out by Mr. W. M. Cory, program chairman, that we are now entering the third year of war; that the need of increased home food production is becoming greater each year. Commercial producers are finding it more difficult to retain their former production levels because: (1) Less skilled help is available. (2) Less equipment is available, and (3) Fewer supplies are available. A large proportion of our commercial production is required by our armed forces and for lend lease. That is why emphasis is being placed upon greater home food production. Vacant lots and idle land too small in area to be economical for a commercial producer to operate can be utilized by the home food producer. A fine job was done by this group last year, said Mr. Cory. According to the national statistics, there were some twenty million gardens in the nation which produced eight million tons of food. This was nearly 40 per cent of all vegetables grown for home use. They were largely responsible for the satisfactory supply of vegetables this winter. In Orange county we had an estimated 25,000 gardens, utilizing some 800 acres of ground, largely unproductive of food. L. Cramer, Anaheim; (3) Home Food Preservation, chairman, Mrs. A. L. Schuttee, Anaheim; (4) Youth in Food Production Program, chairman, John Hayes, Santa Ana; (5) Victory Garden Harvest Shows, chairman, Mrs. Perry Grout, Orange. These recommendations are being assembled and soon will be available at the Farm Advisor's office. 'Safety' Discussed At Broadway P.-T. A. Meeting Held Wed.
