Center — Ph. 2206-2207 though there has been grave doubt as to the necessity or desirability of many of its excursions into regulatory by-paths, the OPA's activities tend too much toward regimentation and totalitarian government to be acceptable to the people of this Nation in ordinary times. And yet there can be no doubt that the OPA will battle to survive, for it has a vast number of employees who have no intention of being separated from a government payroll if they can avoid it. The magnitude of this wartime agency, which now threatens to become a permanent agency, unless the people are vigilant in defense of their pocketbooks and their economic freedom, is evidenced by the fact that the Office of Price Administration, within three years of its creation, had expanded to a point where it employed 55,970 full-time workers, in addition to 45,000 volunteer workers in the 5,500 rationing boards scattered over the country. The first annual budget submitted by OPA, early in 1942, totaled $110,000,000, but Congress—after inquiring into some of its proposed activities—lopped off $20,000,000. The second annual OPA budget called for $177,335,000, or $25,-000,000 more than had been appropriated to operate and maintain the whole United States Navy in 1916, the year prior to this country's entry into World War I. Yet the Navy, for $25,000,000 less, operated 346 vessels, with a personnel of 66,000 officers and men! More dangerous, however, than ing it apply equally to all others. That statement would be subject to challenge if either the Central Valley or any other area in California was an undeveloped wilderness just being opened up to settlers, but if the Easterners have that conception of California lands then they should come out here and try to find some government-owned land that they would like to farm. As this writer pointed out several weeks ago, we are not entering into a debate as to whether a fixed limit should be placed on the number of acres in American farms, or California farms. That is not the question at issue. If such a limit is to be imposed, it should be done on broad social and economic grounds—after very mature consideration—and should apply to all similar areas alike. Actually, the so-called "corporation farms," or "factories in the field," if they were ever a serious menace, are not much of a menace in California today. The laws of competition, rather than man-made laws, are gradually taking care of that problem, for by and large "factories in the field" simply haven't been able to compete with the industrious, independent farmer, tilling his own soil. Of much greater concern to California, when our California farmers view the possibility of Mr. Ickes being installed as high lord and overseer of the Central Valley, is the gradual regimentation which will come with government control—the regulations, without number, and the ques- PRINTING THAT'S A CREDIT TO YOU The printed matter that goes out of your offices reflects your standards.

TAYLOR Executive Secretary-Agricultural Council of California One of the oft-quoted axioms of reporters covering the State Capitol, in years gone by, was that while new State agencies were constantly created, none was ever abolished! A few years ago, however, some State bureau had so patently outlived its usefulness that the Legislature, much to everybody's astonishment, ended its existence, and since that time there have been a few other occasions when an obsolete branch of government was lopped off. The principle, nonetheless, still holds true. It is comparatively easy to get a new government bureau created, but it is next to impossible to get one abolished—and the Federal Government has been a much greater offender, in this regard, than State or local government. With that in mind, California farmers, business men and the consuming public might well give serious attention to a statement made recently by Congressman Walter C. Ploeser, a member of the House Small Business Committee, that: "THERE ARE PLANS AFOOT TO CARRY OVER OPA AS A PERMANENT POST-WAR FIXTURE IN AMERICA!" Congressman Ploeser, speaking before the National Association of Retail Grocers, declared: "Early this year Price Administrator Chester Bowles expressed himself as 'proudly concerned lest in our eagerness to shed our after inquiring into some of its proposed activities—lopped off $20,000,000. The second annual OPA budget called for $177,335,000, or $25,-000,000 more than had been appropriated to operate and maintain the whole United States Navy in 1916, the year prior to this country's entry into World War I. Yet the Navy, for $25,000,000 less, operated 346 vessels, with a personnel of 66,000 officers and men! More dangerous, however, than even the colossal cost of continuing this agency after the war is the fact that if it continued it would undoubtedly be used as a vehicle for radical experimentation that might well destroy our form of government. If ration stamps continue as the controlling medium of exchange after the war, with each person issued the same number, regardless of whether he is provident or improvident, industrious or lazy, then we will have been forced into Communism in this Nation without balloting on it, or having much warning that it was coming. For regardless of the dollars you have earned, or the dollars you have saved, ration points will determine your poverty or wealth—and the OPA, rather than your own enterprise, will regulate it. The State Legislature, during the recent special session, undoubtedly spoke for the great majority of the people of California when it adopted a resolution memorializing Congress to amend the excess land provision of the Federal Reclamation Law, so that it shall not apply to the Central Valley Water Project nor to lands irrigated by it. This is the Reclamation Law provision which Secretary of the Interior Ickes is now using as a big stick in his effort to limit the number of acres which any farmer may own in the Sacramento or San Joaquin valleys—and to compel persons owning more than 160 acres to dispose of their properties under threat of being denied irrigation water. The Legislature, in its memorial to Congress, recalled that "The Federal Reclamation Law was originally devised for the reclamation and irrigation of lands in the Great Plains region in order to open up government-owned lands for settlement and development," and the Legislature then called attention to the fact that the situation in California is in no way parallel. "The Central Valley Project." THERE ARE PLANS AFOOT TO CARRY OVER OPA AS A PERMANENT POST-WAR FIXTURE IN AMERICA!" Congressman Ploeser, speaking before the National Association of Retail Grocers, declared: "Early this year Price Administrator Chester Bowles expressed himself as 'proudly concerned lest, in our eagerness to shed ourselves of wartime government and give free reign to initiative and enterprise after the war, we conceive the role of government too narrowly.' "The OPA chief called upon the government — and by that he means the New Deal—to be 'ready to take whatever action, however broad and far-reaching it may turn out to be, that is necessary to sustain a high level of industrial and farm activity.' "In reporting these eye-opening revelations by the Price Administrator, the New York Times credited Bowles with predicting that the OPA formula can be adapted to the post-war era." That is an astounding statement, for if the American people took a vote on the war agency they most want to get rid of—once the war is over—that agency would undoubtedly be the OPA, with its multiplicity of artificial controls and its reputation for arbitrary and confusing and conflicting rules and regulations. Accepted as a necessary evil in wartime, all The Legislature, in its memorial to Congress, recalled that "The Federal Reclamation Law was originally devised for the reclamation and irrigation of lands in the Great Plains region in order to open up government-owned lands for settlement and development," and the Legislature then called attention to the fact that the situation in California is in no way parallel. "The Central Valley Project," said the legislative resolution, "is superimposed upon an established economy and will principally affect lands already in private ownership. And the application of the excess land provisions to a situation such as is presented by the Central Valley Project will cause great disruption and will have results which probably were not anticipated by the Congress when it enacted the provision." As a matter of fact, the attempt of Ickes and his associates to enforce the 160-acre limitation in California's already-developed and long-established Central Valley is another deplorable instance of the efforts of bureaucratic officials to twist the laws to suit their own purposes. If it is wrong to own more than 160 acres in the Sacramento or San Joaquin valleys, then it is equally wrong to own more than 160 acres in Imperial Valley or Humboldt County—and there is neither logic nor reason in singling out any one area in California for such limitation, without mak- California Holds Record Sale of Holstein Cattle An average of $705, on 76 head set a new record for herd dispersals in the West when the final chapter was written May 27 in the history of the Kanowa Holstein herd owned by Walter and Ray Decker of Turlock, California. Top animal was the 25-month-old herd sire, Cornell Neptune King, better known throughout the west as "The Professor." After a session of spirited bidding, he went to the veteran breeder, Earl Graham of Chula Vista, at $4,050. Mr. Graham also purchased a heifer calf by this sire at $775. Fourteen of "The Professor's" calves totaled $8,670 to average $578. The oldest was born December 27, 1943, and the youngest was but a day old. J. A. Sutten of Visalia paid $5,-800 for four daughters of Kanowa Sir Segis. This 9-year-old herd sire was in the sale and went to Leo P. Hedegard of Modesto, who also purchased a bred heifer. The California Dairy Queen, Kanowa Segis Ormsby Duchess, went to Fermin Larry of Fresno who also bought four other animals, paying a total of $3,375. Largest buyer at the event was a comparatively new breeder, M. J. Dill of Chowchilla, who acquired fourteen females for a total of $5,975. J. A. Pelanda of Modesto got the top-priced calf sired by "The Professor," paying $1,000 for her. He also purchased two other daughters of that bull and paid a total of $3,320 for five animals. E. Peterposten, Modesto, selected five head totalling $2,775, four of them being daughters of "The Professor." Kanowa Lanore Duchess, the 200,000 lifetime milk producer and a holder of a world's record for milk in 3X milking classification found a home with Marion Fosberg of Turlock. Other buyers included A. G. Ainscough of Santa Maria, three for $2,075; George H. Sawyer of Waterford, five at $2,300; B. A. McNees of Visalia, three at $2,250; E. T. Dinsdale of Manteca, three for $2,150; A. J. Pretzer of Fresno, three for $1,900; Max Herzog of Petaluma, two at $1,350; Walter Kling of Modesto, one for $925; Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Taylor of Visalia, who purchased the $875 "Gigi" cow that topped the Stanislaus County sale last May returned and bought a "Sir Segis" daughter at $825. The only out of state buyer was George McKaig, manager of the Ladino Dairy near Reno, Nevada. He purchased three head for a total of $1,850. Everybody reads The Gazette. FARM SAFETY WEEK SET FOR JULY 23-29 National Farm Safety Week will be observed July 23-29—dedicated to emphasizing the need for year-round care in preventing the farm accidents which are hampering the nation's food production. "Statistics prove that the entire wheat crop of the United States, or two-thirds of the potato crop, could be produced with the amount of labor lost through accidents to American farmers last year," Maynard Coe, director of the Farm Safety Division of the National Safety Council, said. Mr. Coe pointed out that an estimated 4,000,000 extra farm workers will be needed to help produce food this year. "Much of this help will be inexperienced. City boys and girls and men and women unfamiliar with farm hazards must be made conscious of rural safety," he said. Among the agencies cooperating with the Council in National Farm Safety Week are the United States Department of Agriculture, the National Grange, the American Farm Bureau Federation and The Farmers' Union.
