NO OLD BOXES
VIII be Worked by the Turpentine Opera
tors This Year.

Savannah, Ca, August 16.-(Special) y
The turpentine operators held their annual
meeting here today in the Masonic hai.,
about 100 being in attendance ana over
300 stills beng represented. They met to
discuss the situation which, in view of the
monetary stringency, is not promising.
After Il discussion of some length com
mittees of operators and naval stores
factors got together and discussed the stu
alton. They recommended the adoption
of Il resolution that the naval stores pro-
'lucers suspend working ,ssl cid boxes
during the remainder of the season This
resolution, after some discussion, Was
unanimously adopted.
The operators will work only virgin box
es which will result III cutting down the
crop IS per cent. This means Il reduction
of % to 30 per cent i'll the entire crop
as the product up to date is over Is per
cent short of the average.
The cause of the dull season has been
the tremendous falling off i'll domestic
consumption, which has been the result of
the monetary stringency. These causes
have operated to make prices too low to
pay the producers a profit on their product
remedy and it is hoped and believed that
it will affect the maket adyantageously at
once.
resolution was also adopted requesting
the factors not to put out any2 money to
those producers who worked old boxes in
violation of the resolutions adopted by the
convention and this the factors readily
consented to do. The convention then adj

''that the Behring sea as closed sea could
