AMENDMENT VOTED DOWN
Union Will Still Be Con-
Quoted as n Profit Earning
Proposition.

Contrary to expectation and con-
trary to the hope of every public spir-
tied citizen and fruit grower, the pro-
position affecting most vitality the
proposed utilization of the fruit grow
ers organizations or the reorgani2a-
ton of the Horticultural union along
cooperative lines, was defeated at the
meeting held in the court house We'd
nesday morning.
At the suggestion of II. r. Scud-
der, who representa- 100 shares Of
stock. an amendment was proposed
giving to each stakeholder. whether
large or small. an equal voice In the
conduct of the union. This would
have placed the control of the con-
Germ in the hands of those who are
active in the fruit industry. How
ever, at the meeting Wednesday. the
will of those who desire to utilize the
union for private gain only, prevail
ed, and the amendment was voted
down.
This precludes the possibility of a
satisfactory reorganization of the I'M
ion along cooperative lines at pres
ent, although it is expected that the
question may be raised at the annual
meeting of the Horticultural union
to be held in February. If there is
change of heart. the amendment
may carry at that time.
