LEMON CROP MENACED


SANTA BARBARA, Cal, Sept. T.
Competition from Italy and increased
freight rates have caused an acute
crisis which is facing California s
lemon industry, according to James
Bires, manager of a local fruit COM
pany.
On account Of the high exchange
value of United States money in Ital-
ian lire. and the present low tariff of
,one half cent per pound makes It
possible for Italians and Sicilians to
sell their lemons in American markets
below the cost of producing the Cali
fornia lemons.
1t is stated that the Italian grower
who sells box of lemons at So in
New York has more than Sc when he
has exchanged his money into Italian
money. Growers here assert that
box of California lemons cost approx
imately SO to produce, and upon add
ing the present freight rate of $1.45
per box to ..Sy York, the cost of their
product in that city is about $4.45
per box

charges of Governor Cox "is not seek
ing the best evidence to prove the

claim Of Edmund H. Moore Of Youngs-
town, the governors personal repre-
sentative as he appeared before the
senatorial committee today.
Moore told the committee that there
were men better able to tell of the
facts than either he or Cox and went

man of the republican ways and

parently numbering 800 sheets.
Signs of friction developed when
Senator Kenyon asked Moore about
the interview he gave newspaper cor-
respondents last Tuesday. The sena-
tor asked Moore if he had said that
the committee was afraid to call him
to the stand. Moore answered 81 did
not" "You needn't get angry" Ken
yon said.
Moore replied, 81 am not getting
angry, what said was that the COM
mittee is not seeking the best evi-
dence, and say it again."
Moore said that he was sure that
Upham, treasurer of the republican
national committee would not testify
untruths, but he was equally sure tina.
Upham is the victim of mistakes or
bad bookkeeping when. he testified
concerning the quotas. The witness re-
iterated specific quotas assessed
against the local committees and said
that the real workers for the funds
paid men headed by Harry M. Blair,
an assistant to Upham.
