Center — Ph. 2206-2207 AAA AND THE FARMER LUMBER ORDER LIBERALIZES SMALL SALES Farmers who buy lumber in Orange county may now buy small amounts of lumber for essential maintenance and repair of implements and farm service buildings by simply signing an application at the lumber yard, according to Stephen Griset, Chairman of the Orange County Agricultural Conservation Committee. Three hundred board feet is the largest amount that can be obtained from the dealer without first getting a farmers' lumber certificate, Mr. Griset said. Any farmer who needs more than 300 board feet of lumber should apply to the County AAA Office at Santa Ana for a certificate. The committee has authority to issue farmers' lumber certificates for essential maintenance and repair use and for new construction (other than residences) where the cost is now more than $1,000 per farm per calendar year. The committee also will issue certificates for lumber needed for emergencies. For construction which must be approved by the War Production Board, the ACA committee receives farmers' applications and makes recommendations but does not issue certificates. Madera—Thursday, August 24. Tulare—Friday, August 25. Los Angeles—Tuesday, Sept. 5. Salinas—Thursday, Sept. 7. San Jose—Friday, September 8. Redding—Monday, Sept. 18. Santa Rosa—Wednesday, September 20. In addition, four meetings in Southern California are planned but dates and places have not yet been set. BITS AND PIECES From 20% to 30% of all the food produced in this country is wasted somewhere between the plow an dthe plate. . . While no slaughter reports of any kind are required of farm slaughterers, OPA requires reports in connection with collection of ration points on all meats having point value which a farmer sells or transfers. . . Nearly 87% of the farms participating in the 1943 Agricultural Conservation Program in California carried out one or more soil-building practices, according to the 1943 Annual Report of the State AAA released this week. . . Only families processing fruit for sale are eligible for extra rations of sugar up to 250 pounds per family unit, the Office of Price Administration emphasized today to correct rumors of a sugar holiday for general canning. California Farm Bill On General Farmers of California, it dedicated, will oppose Propo No. 11 on the general election fall. The Cali Farm Bureau Federation directs have expressed opposition to "California Employment and Retirement Mutual Insurance because they consider it unjust." The FARMERS CORNER by RALPH H. TAYLOR Executive Secretary Agricultural Council of California California's needy aged, during the fiscal year, 1943-44, received 8,646,372 in old-age pension benefits! There were 157,605 persons on the old-age pension rolls during that fiscal period—and they received more, per person, than any older citizens anywhere else in the Nation. They received nearly TEN MILION DOLLARS MORE than the total grant of State aid, during the same period, to California's public schools. That is how well California takes care of its needy aged—and that statement of the case needs to be kept in mind at this time, when a measure is pending on the general Election ballot to provide an old age pension of $60 a month for every person who quits work at 60 years of age. The California Taxpayers Association correctly states the case when it declares: "Under the present generous provisions of California law, providing for aid to the needy aged, the statistics indicate that apparently all those older people who in need are being cared for." "People should consider the present generous care of needy aged people in California in weighing the many unsound themes for old age pensions being advocated today." "The burden of a flat pension is a right, of the size commonly urged ($60 at 60), could not beorne by the people of the State, long with all the other costs of regular and necessary government issues farmers' lumber certificates for essential maintenance and repair use and for new construction (other than residences) where the cost is now more than $1,000 per farm per calendar year. The committee also will issue certificates for lumber needed for emergencies. For construction which must be approved by the War Production Board, the ACA committee receives farmers' applications and makes recommendations but does not issue certificates. Farmers' lumber certificates rank as "certified and rated" orders, with ratings as high as any assigned to non-military users, Griset stated. Dealers can use the ratings when they place orders. "In fact," Griset said, "these ratings offer the only opportunity to keep enough lumber in the county to meet our essential farm needs." ORDER EGG CASES NOW To avoid chaotic egg marketing problems that followed shortage of egg cases during the 1943-44 peak season, the War Food Administration advocates placing orders for an appreciable portion of 1944-45 egg case requirements now. WFA reports that new wooden cases will not be available for civilian use in any appreciable volume for the coming season and that about 85% of the new cases available will be of corrugated fiber board construction. Competitive uses for this material, production of which is already below requirements, plus the need for distributing the manufacturing load in order to use production facilities more efficiently, make it necessary for egg case users to place orders through their normal supply channels immediately. MACHINERY COMMITTEES AND DEALERS TO MEET Beginning with a session at Yuba City on Tuesday, August 22, a series of meetings between County Farm Machinery Rationing Committees and machinery dealers in the respective areas, to discuss the provisions of the 1944-45 farm machinery rationing order is scheduled. The use of a Letter of Eligibility, a new departure that goes into effect October 1 on nine Schedule I or quota items, is expected to eliminate the issuance of more than one purchase certificate for each available item of rationed equipment, thus cutting down the time and difficulty of securing delivery of such items. The schedule of meetings follows: Yuba City—Tuesday, August 22. Sacramento—Wednesday, August 23. Assistant Farm Advisor Appointed, From Kern County Appointment of H. W. Longfellow as Assistant Farm Advisor in Orange county to fill the vacancy created some time ago by the resignation of Mr. Ross Crane was announced today by H. E. Wahlberg, Orange County Farm Advisor representing the Agricultural Extension Service of the University of California. Longfellow was assigned to Orange county by the University of California after ten years as Assistant Farm Advisor of Kern county where he specialized in field and truck crop production and 4-H club work. Prior to his work with the Agricultural Extension Service, Mr. Longfellow was employed by the Hawaiian Pineapple Company and the U. S. Department of Agriculture in Washington D. C. Mr. Longfellow is a graduate of Stanford University and took special graduate work in agriculture at the University of California at Berkeley. Mr. Longfellow is married and has one son. They have established residence at 2418 Fairmont Avenue, Santa Ana. The new assistant will handle extension work and demonstrations in field and truck crops, and supervise the agricultural 4-H club work in Orange county. Caution Given For Winter Planting of Market Vegetables Specific acreage goals for winter vegetables, those marketed principally in January, February, and March, will not be announced this year according to word received today by Farm Advisor H. E. Wahlberg from the State USDA War Board. The War Board will issue brief statements from time to time, he said, pointing out national and local needs and suggesting such changes as are adicated, will oppose Proposition No. 11 on the general election ballot this fall. The Californi Farm Bureau Federation directs have expressed opposition to "California Employment and Retirement Mutual Insurance because they consider it unjust in its tax provisions and object to the amount and nature of funds that the passage of measure would make available pensioners. This measure would repeal formia's retail sales tax and increase its provisions practically allowing persons receiving income, greedy small, would be required to monthly returns and pay upon their income whether such income equaled or exceed their operating costs or expire. The tax rate indicated in measure is 3% but the Board of Equalization is enforced to increase it to 5% while and to the extent required to the revenue demands of the gram. As a gross receipts imposed upon a base which relationship whatever to the gation of the taxpayer to government or to his ability bear such an obligation, it been considered as unsound practical and destructive w ever applied. Acting upon the advice of legislative research department the California Farm Bureau eration has expressed opposition to two proposals on the fall election and support two others. They are su ing propositions No. 7 and No. 6 and N Recommendations upon other posals are expected to be coming as the election approves. The farmers term No. 1 so-called "$60 at 60" plan sound in its tax provision objectionable in the natural amounts of funds it would be available to pensioners." Proposition No. 6, provided annual sessions of the legislature was opposed on the ground annual regular sessions of legislature are unnecessary would be costly, would less the period of suspense to buy and would shorten the duration which administrators opportunity to familiarize themselves with new laws. Proposition No. 7, author The statistics indicate that apparently all those older people who live in need are being cared for. "People should consider the present generous care of needy aged people in California in weighing the many unsound themes for old age pensions being advocated today." "The burden of a flat pension is a right, of the size commonly urged ($60 at 60), could not beorne by the people of the State, long with all the other costs of regular and necessary government, veterans rehabilitation, and the payments for the war which the people must make for many years to come." That is a practical, dollars-and-dents statement of the case against Proposition 11 on the November ballot, the so-called $60-at-60 old age pension act. No matter how generously California citizens may be inclined, California simply can't afford the 60-at-60 proposal. Other vital issues of government will inevitably pay the penalty if this event proposal becomes law. To farmers, however, Proposition—the $60-at-60 pension plan—is exceedingly dangerous from a highly different standpoint. This proposition would repeal the State Sales Tax, but in its read it would set up a gross income tax, or transactions tax, which would be A TAX ON EVERY TURNOVER of every commodity and every dollar. The load that would place on California's farming industry cannot even be estimated, for farm products turn over many times between producer and the ultimate consumer—and every transaction, under this scheme, would be taxed on a 3 cent gross basis. The present Sales Tax, instead of being repealed, would be multiplied several times over, so far the agriculture is concerned—and The use of a Letter of Eligibility, a new departure that goes into effect October 1 on nine Schedule I or quota items, is expected to eliminate the issuance of more than one purchase certificate for each available item of rationed equipment, thus cutting down the time and difficulty of securing delivery of such items. The schedule of meetings follows: Yuba City—Tuesday, August 22. Sacramento—Wednesday, August 23. the same would apply to any commodity which changes hands severel times between production and consumption. The $60-at-60 pension, furthermore, would be paid addition to any other pension, annuity or other compensation a beneficiary might receive from any other organization, private or public. The California farming industry is not against adequate old age pensions; many farmers, in their latter years, benefit by such old age pensions. But the farming industry is against any old-age pension program which would defeat its own purpose, as this does, by jeopardizing the ability of gainfully-employed citizens to support themselves during their productive years. The Agricultural Council of California, representing the State's major farm cooperatives, with 70,-000 farmer members, is opposed to Proposition 11, not because it provides for a bigger old-age pension, but because it would make it impossible for profitably-employed citizens to pay such a pension. To be practical, a pension must be economically feasible. And that this proposition is NOT. Every farmer, regardless of age, should be against this unsound and visionary proposal. Winter Planting of Market Vegetables Specific acreage goals for winter vegetables, those marketed principally in January, February, and March, will not be announced this year according to word received today by Farm Advisor H. E. Wahlberg from the State USDA War Board. The War Board will issue brief statements from time to time, he said, pointing out national and local needs and suggesting such changes as are advisable. The War Board released a statement yesterday showing the situation as it affects the principal winter crops in California; artichokes, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, celery, lettuce, green peas, and spinach. It is suggested that growers of winter vegetables carefully consider in advance the marketing possibilities of their 1945 crops. The main objectives in looking ahead should be to carefully utilize established facilities for vegetable production and marketing, and to produce quantities of vegetables that can be readily marketed without excessive waste or loss. A well-balanced production program for 1945 vegetables, measured from the standpoint of national and local needs for fresh vegetables, will require relatively few departures from normal operations. Cabbage growers are asked to reduce their plantings for March harvest, particularly in the Orange, Los Angeles and Imperial areas which furnish the bulk of the rail movement during that month. Harvest of next winter's crop of Florida oranges and grapefruit is expected to start early; the present crop is a month ahead of last year's in maturity. Proposition No. 6, providing annual sessions of the legislature was opposed on the ground; annual regular sessions of legislature are unnecessary; would be costly, would lead the period of suspense to buildup and would shorten the time during which administrators opportunity to familiarize themselves with new laws. Proposition No. 7, authorizing the payment of necessary penses up to ten dollars per member of the legislature for each in attendance at regular or special sessions, was approved on ground that the members of legislature are now inadequately compensated for the service they derided and in the hope that adequate pay will attract capable law makers. Proposition No. 8, providing the title of property sold by State for delinquent taxes she regarded as valid if not corroded within a year of such sale approved as a practical measure getting thousands of tax delicatess properties back upon the tax. OHIO PICNIC REUNION Harry B. George, President of the Ohio State Society, issued call to the "Buckeyes" to ask for the autumn picnic, all September 3rd, 1944, in Syracuse Grove Park, Los Angeles.

California Farmers Will Oppose No. 11 Will On General Election Ballot, Say Farmers of California, it is indicated, will oppose Proposition 11 on the general election ballot this fall. The California Farm Bureau Federation directors have expressed opposition of the California Employment and Retirement Mutual Insurance Plan" because they consider it unsound its tax provisions and object to Political Parties Endorse Veterans' Farm, Home Bonds Leaders of the Democratic and Republican parties in California have announced the unanimous GERALD LO PORTO Mr. and Mrs. Nick Lo Porto of 210 Cherry Street, announce the birth of their son, Gerald Edward, on Saturday, Aug. 12, at the Fullerton General Hospital. Mrs. Lo Porto and son have returned to their home here. MISSOURI PICNIC The annual state picnic for former residents of Missouri will be in Bixby Park, Long Beach, August 27, according to a recent announcement by their president. Political Parties Endorse Veterans' Farm, Home Bonds Leaders of the Democratic and Republican parties in California have announced the unanimous endorsement by their respective organization groups throughout the State, of Proposition No. 1, the $30,000,000. World War II Veterans' Farm and Home bond issue, for ratification by the voters of California on the November 7 general election ballot. The platforms of both parties, drafted and adopted at their pre-Presidential election conventions in Sacramento recently, contained special sections praising the activities and benefits of the California Veterans' Welfare Board for service men and women of World War I, and for those serving in the present World War II, called for the unanimous adoption of Proposition No. 1 by the California citizens. The measure enables California service men and women of the present global war to acquire homes and farms through the Veterans' Welfare Board, at reasonable costs and convenient payment terms. It is patterned after four bond issues overwhelmingly voted by California citizens in 1922, 1926, 1930 and 1934, through which twenty thousand California veterans of World War I received loans aggregating $89,000,000. for the purchase of homes and farms. The proposal is reported meeting spontaneous support from all sides. NEBRASKA PICNIC SEPT. 2 Meeting regularly twice each season at Sycamore Grove, the usual summer event has been pushed forward to Saturday, September 2nd, according to President Charles H. Randall of the Cornhuskers. This gives Nebraska folks three picnics, as the summer date at Long Beach occurs in July. Rev. Merle E. Fisk, native son of Jefferson County, Nebraska, pastor of the First Christian Church, North Hollywood, will be the orator. He has become widely known in his short residence here as a forceful, logical and entertaining speaker. Anaheim Gazette, since 1870. Proposition No. 6, providing for annual sessions of the legislature, was opposed on the ground that annual regular sessions of the legislature are unnecessary and would be costly, would lengthen the period of suspense to business, and would shorten the period during which administrators have opportunity to familiarize themselves with new laws. Proposition No. 7, authorizing the payment of necessary expenses up to ten dollars per member of the legislature for each day attendance at regular or special sessions, was approved on the ground that the members of the legislature are now inadequately compensated for the services rendered and in the hope that more equitable pay will attract more capable law makers. Proposition No. 8, providing that the title of property sold by the state for delinquent taxes shall be guarded as valid if not contested within a year of such sale, was proved as a practical means of getting thousands of tax deliquent properties back upon the tax rolls. OHIO PICNIC REUNION Harry B. George, President of the Ohio State Society, issues a call to the "Buckeyes" to gather for the autumn picnic, all day September 3rd, 1944, in Sycamore Grove Park, Los Angeles.
