ARTHUR GEAkY HAS
PRAISE FOR SIEG

Arthur M. Geary, who upon his re.
turn from an extensive trip through
eastern markets, opened law Office in
Portland, was in Hood River Thursday.
Hood River 10 Fortunate" he said,
"in having such well known man as
Wilmer Sieg serving az sales manager
for the Association. In every fruit
market center that ! visited some
tradesman was sure t. pop up with the
instruction, Say hello to Sieg for me.
"The large jobbers in some of the
cities are much perturbed over the en-
croachment of the auction upon the ap-
pie business. which they have monopo-
lized heretofore. In New York the
state department Of markets is leading
the fight for auction selling of barreled
apples.
at is a significant fact to me that
hostility to auction selling is found
only among the jobbers. and those
whom they have been able to influence.
The officials of the California Fruit
Growers Exchange. the Florida Citrus
Exchange. the California Fruit Dis
tributors and the importing companies
of Sicilan lemons and Almeiia grapes,
are never heard to even consider the
thought of returning to the private
sales system in great cities like Bos-
ton. New York. Philadelphia and Pitts
burg.
"Some jobbers of the middle west
have just. met to protest against the
extension of the auction system. They
claim that it interferes with their busi-
ness and throws some of them out Of
their jobs. So it does.
"lt is significant that the large job
bers who object to the selling of box
apples at auction. in the United States
are entirely reconciled to having their
apples sold in England at auction. The
sooner the growers realize that the
trend towards the auction is one to
their interest the better"
