Junior Leaders Of 4-H Clubs to Meet Saturday The 4-H club Junior Leaders of Orange county will hold a conference from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday at the Farm Bureau building, 353 South Main street, Orange, when the leaders will receive instructions as to their responsibilities for the coming year. A program in which the Junior Leaders themselves may participate has been planned. It will include a general session to outline the procedure for the day, an explanation of the Junior Leader record book, and a brief talk on the history of 4-H. This will be presented by Nancy Bascom, a senior member of the Tustin Junior Livewires. The conference will then be divided into two groups, agricultural and home economics. These groups will hold round table discussions on 4-H projects, demonstrations, recreation and other 4-H subjects. Those who attended the statewide Junior Leader Conference at Davis in September will tell of the subject matter presented there. After a summary session to cover the important points and conclusions reached by the two groups, the meeting will be adjourned for a paper sack lunch. Those selected for Junior Leaders for this club year are Mary Jane Adams and Frank Robinson, Eager Beavers 4-H Club of Villa Park; Nancy Bascom, Mary Marks and Harriet Stolte, Tustin Jr., Livewires; Vera Berlin, Marjorie Berlin, Gladys Postlethwaite, and Hazel Wood, Garden Grove Babbling Busybodies; Nancy Burdick, Both Big Citrus Co-ops Hear Annual Reports (Continued from Page 1) little to the grower if no profit is received on the fruit put in cans. As a matter of fact, the extremely low prices of canned citrus have placed a low ceiling on the prices of fresh fruit." Canning has a proper place in the industry, but excessive canning is uneconomic. Armstrong pointed to the equivalent of 160,-000 carloads of fresh fruit canned during the past season as being greater than the total production of citrus fruit in California and Arizona. Florida and Texas canned 92 percent of the total. The California-Arizona citrus industry shipped a total of 105,-829 cars of oranges, lemons and grapefruit during the 1947-43 fiscal year which ended October 31. Sunkist shipped 78,466 cars or 74 percent of the industry total. Exchange products plants at Ontario and Corona processed 27,800 cars into a wide variety of citrus by-products. While all citrus production and handling costs have risen sharply since the war, the most serious has been the constant rise in freight rates. Since late 1945, the freight rate on oranges has jumped 29c per box. It now costs $1.60 to ship a box of oranges to market which is more than it costs to produce it. “This increase is more than the traffic can bear,” Armstrong stated. “High rail rates will force the use of truck and water shipments wherever possible.” Overseas exports of citrus, particularly oranges and grapefruit were remarkably good despite the cover the important points and conclusions reached by the two groups, the meeting will be adjourned for a paper sack lunch.

Biggest buyers were little Belgium and Switzerland. The Exchange sold 600,000 gallons of orange concentrate to the British Ministry of Food during the year and almost 250,000 gallons to the School Lunch Program in the United States. These orders took 67,000 tons of fruit. The Exchange reported the biggest gain in membership in a decade with almost 9000 additional acres of citrus affiliating with the cooperative.

The object behind Goodwill, the speaker pointed out, is to give employment to handicapped people financed through the cast-off materials of housewives in the community. In this way, Trevethen stated, "discards become time cards" for the needy. The national executive secretary declared that today some 18,000 to 19,000 handicapped people of America are served by Goodwill Industries. Locally, 66 employees are maintained in the Orange county headquarters at Santa Ana. In conclusion, Trevethen reiterated that the job of aiding the handicapped rests on the cooperative relations of everyone in the community and that the religious phase of rehabilitation should not be overlooked. In this respect, Trevethen praised the new chapel in the Santa Ana Goodwill building.
