AAA AND THE FARMER DAIRY FEED PAYMENT EXTENDED Summer, Fall and Winter rates in an eleven-month extension of the War Food Administration's dairy feed adjustment payment program were published this week subject to Congress making provisions for administrative expenses in the operation of the program. May through August Rates for Orange county are 55 cents per hundredweight of whole milk or 6 cents per pound butterfat. Beginning in September and continuing through March, 1945, the Summer rates will be boosted 25 cents for whole milk and 4 cents for butterfat. For this seven-month period the new rates are 80 cents per cwt. and 10 cents per lb. The County AAA Committee, the organization which issues the sight drafts drawn on the Commodity Credit Corporation for dairy payments, has been advised that the State AAA committee has recommended to WFA that the payments be computed and issued monthly instead of every two months in California to compensate for increased volume of part of the production beet sugar plants that low-grade potatoes from crop.

Center — Ph. 220-2207 Lions Learn About Making Air Planes Mass Production Members of the Lions club listed to an interesting talk on achievement in Aircraft Production," at Vultee Field by P. B. Hause, of the efficiency department of the big aircraft factory, on the regular noon luncheon meeting on Friday. The speaker is introduced by Leavitt Ford, gram chairman for the day. Converting the industry from a two-plane order business mass production where planes built by the thousands instead one or two at a time, involving continual design changes, is not by an interesting story but one of the marvelous achievements made into being by the war. All this was explained to the Lions one of the men who has helped accomplish in the aircraft folding industry what formerly would have been considered the impossible. Herb Eldred, former president of the club, was re-instated as a member, and a new member, Joe Critchfield of the Pacific Lighting Corporation, were inducted into the order by Dist. Gov. Louis狄kins. Mr. Critchfield was originally from Ohio and has been in California since 1935. Union George Eckmyer introduced as guests Robert Mundel,nt manager of the Essex Wire Corporation, and John Holm who joined the company and will serve Eckmyer as office mannr, the latter having been transferred to another location. The USO dance committee related the party sponsored by the two previous Saturday night magnificent production performance during the war. While total production of food crops last year was 9 per cent below the all time high of 1942, it was still 13 percent above the 1935-39 average. Livestock production in 1943 was actually 10 per cent above 1942 and the highest in history. Balancing the 9 per cent drop in the total production of food crops against the 10 per cent increase in livestock production, total food production for last year was 5 per cent above 1942—and 32 per cent above the 1935-39 average. The conference developed these pertinent facts concerning farm income: United States prices of farm products have about doubled since 1939. During the past year, farm prices of farm products increased about 10 per cent. Prices of farm products reached "parity" in 1942 and are now 16 per cent above parity, but it was made clear that parity prices do not necessarily mean equality of income of farm people with industrial workers. One major weakness in "parity tabulations" is that they have never included farm labor. Wages of farm labor in the United States have almost trebled since the low point before the war. During 1942 and 1943 (still quoting data submitted at the conference), the average per capita net income of the country's farm population showed a greater percentage increase than the net income of non-farm people. On a dollar basis, however, the average per capita net income of the farm population was about $510 as compared with about $1219 for the non-farm population. In 1943, the conference developed, the 20.5 per cent of the people in this country living on farms got 9.8 per cent of the national income. In 1935-39, the percentage of the national income going to farm people was 8.1. Admittedly, a mathematical comparison of per capita incomes of farm and non-farm population is open to the criticism that certain items in the cost of living — food and shelter, for example—are higher in the city. On the other hand, other items—higher education and costs of many home conveniences and services—are higher for farm people. A better measure of the competitive labor situation between agriculture and industry is the "net income per worker" of the two groups. Income per worker in seven-month period the new rates are 80 cents per cwt. and 10 cents per lb. The County AAA Committee, the organization which issues the sight drafts drawn on the Commodity Credit Corporation for dairy payments, has been advised that the State AAA committee has recommended to WFA that the payments be computed and issued monthly instead of every two months in California to compensate for increased volume of feed purchases, a condition normal here during the early summer months. RAIL POTATO SHIPMENTS LIMITED Since April 21, shipment by rail of low grade or cull potatoes, other than sweet potatoes, has been prohibited in some states by the Interstate Commerce Commission, unless such potatoes are being moved for manufacturing purposes or livestock feed. Certified or War Approved seed potato shipments are not affected. Refrigerator or box car use for moving potatoes grading below U.S. No. 2 with a 1/7/8 size minimum is prohibited in California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. State AAA offices will be asked to set up potato committees to work with the Office of Distribution in the orderly marketing of the 1944 early and intermediate crops and in maintaining WFA support prices. Producers, buyers, transportation agencies, Extension Service, Office of Distribution, and the AAA will be represented on the committees. MORE TRUCK PARTS Farm trucks may benefit from the recent WPB order providing for an increase in the output of truck and bus replacement parts. Producers have been given authority to cut in on military production—on a limited basis—to meet the growing shortage of automotive parts for the civilian transportation system. BETTER RETREAD RUBBER Grades A and C synthetic rubber camelback may now be used without restriction for retreading tires, according to the Office of the Rubber Director. These grades are superior to Grade F, the only type available for unrestricted use during the past several months. ORD is continuing to stress the importance of keeping old tires retreaded as a means of Farm Center Will Free Old Mexico In Action Tuesday Movies of Old Mexico in technicolor, will be shown by John free of Placentia, at the meet- of Anaheim Farm Center at Anaheim high school cafeteria, Tuesday evening, May 9th.

Walseth, president, will preside. The USO dance committee retested the party sponsored by the to the previous Saturday night Santa Ana for cadets from the Santa Ana Army Air Base, was huge success. About 1,000 cases and girls were present to end the affair. A better measure of the competitive labor situation between agriculture and industry is the "net income per worker" of the two groups. Income per worker in agriculture is an average which includes farm operators, hired hands, and members of the operators' families who are working on farms. Income per worker in industry includes factory workers, miners and railroad employees. In 1942 and 1943, the average net income of the worker in agriculture was in a reasonably favorable relationship to the average net income of industrial workers. In dollars, the income per worker in agriculture was $1392 as compared with $2138 in industry. Measured in terms of increased buying power for items in the cost of living, income per worker in both agriculture and industry has increased about 125 per cent since 1910-1914. Since 1939, incomes of farm operators (owners have increased more rapidly than wage incomes of industrial workers and for the first time since 1919 are in a reasonably favorable relationship to them. In dollars, the net income per farm operator last year was $2079, as compared with $2138 for the average industrial worker. It should be remembered, however, that the net income of the farmer includes pay for the use of his capital investment as well as his labor and management. The farm operator, the conference concluded, has a greater security of job, but a greater variability of income than the industrial worker. Both, at the present transportation system. BETTER RETREAD RUBBER Grades A and C synthetic rubber camelback may now be used without restriction for retreading tires, according to the Office of the Rubber Director. These grades are superior to Grade F, the only type available for unrestricted use during the past several months. ORD is continuing to stress the importance of keeping old tires retreaded as a means of overcoming the serious shortage. WAR ACE'S FATHER STICKS TO HIS GUNS, TOO Come what may, America's farmers keep plowing on their own fighting front. When Capt. (now a major) Richard I. Bong of Poplar, Wisconsin, was heralded as America's new ace of all wars—with a record of 27 Japanese planes shot out of the skies—his farming parents took the news in stride. Carl Bong, the father, said he couldn't let it interfere with his work, and went out to continue repairing machinery. It was almost time to start plowing on the Bong farm, and he didn't want to get behind. BITS AND PIECES Meat famine fears, stirred by earlier dire predictions, are subsiding in the face of pork and beef supplies considerably exceeding those of a year ago, the Office of Distribution reports. Enough meat will be available for the second quarter of 1944 to allow civilians per capita consumption at the yearly rate of 139 pounds—about 12 pounds more than the pre-war average (1965-1939) while first quarter per capita consumption was at the yearly rate of 158 pounds. For the remaining two quarters, OD figures consumption must necessarily be lighter. Feed mixers are taking a large Anaheim Gazette Thursday, May 4, 1944 Page Five part of the production from the beet sugar plants that are drying low-grade potatoes from the 1943 crop. The number of people working on farms the first of April was about 3 per cent lower than for the same date last year, and the general level of farm wages was at an all-time high. In a move to obtain approximately 8,800,000 pounds of turkey for American overseas forces, the War Food Administration has restricted sales of hen turkeys in sixteen states including California, Washington, Oregon and Utah in the west. Purpose of the order is to take advantage of the usual spring marketing season for hen turkeys. Installation of new electric connections both urban and rural, has been curtailed to protect productive capacity required for manufacture of radio and radar transformers for direct military use, according to WPB.

California To Be Only Hours From Big Market Centers DETROIT — California growers can expect soon after the war to see fresh produce loaded into huge air transports for delivery the same day to the nation's largest markets. This is indicated by a study completed by a group of Wayne University professors on the air cargo potential of fresh fruits and vegetables, and concurred in by a panel of experts attending the university's National Air-Cargo Conference here, at which the findings were announced. Dr. Spencer A. Larsen, who directed the study, said fruit and vegetable traffic equal to 80 times the 1941 total of all air express is expected to develop at a ton-mile rate of seven cents—a figure seen by authorities as possible in the near future. According to Dr. Larsen, California growers annually ship to the 23 metropolitan markets included in the study about 231,964 carloads of fresh produce for a total of 4,772,340,000 ton miles. Wide distribution of this food is indicated by the fact that 40,297 of these carlots went to New York, traveling an average of 2,500 air miles.
