the fruit growers Of California that
better prices would be obtained for
what we produce. A good argument
In favor OF the California plan Of CO.
operative marketing Is that Califor-
MIA fruit has not declined in price.
but is In strong demand at wartime
prices. The California plan has been
in operation several years and grows
in popularity. President Hamer of
