On Wednesday, instead of the usual
Party Day" in the theater of the
workers palace, the "proletarian
smithy," a general meeting will be
held to receive the aforementioned
working men and women into the
party. Before anyone can be finally
admitted into the party those present
at the general meeting are asked if
they have any objections, and then
the vote is taken.
Here is a sample taken from my
notebook of what kind of people are
admitted into the party:
Alexandra zakharova has worked
years, employed in the factory since
the age of IA. Abjured all mythical
beliefs and prejudices since that age.
Michael Kizikov, aged 20, volunteer
already in the Red Guards from 1917
to 1928 and now in the teritorials.

ployed in the factory as a roofer.
Alexandra zakharova, has worked
in the factory since childhood. almost
illiterate. Woman delegate of the
women's section and does. also. other

RAISIN::. GROWERS
FORCEDssTO Give
UP SALES POOL
Had Refused to. Deal
with the Workers

CHICAGO, March 2a-After thir-
teen years of ups and downs as the
largest raisin growers group in the
United States, the Sun Maid Raisin
Growers Assn. Of California is re-
turning to competition for the 1925
crop. They failed to sign up So per
cent of the crop for their. pool.
This news and the story of the rails
in growers, is told by ]. c. Coleman,
former raisin grower and representa-.
tive in the association from his dis
trict
Boosted Price.
1.-THE Sun Maid raisin growers
center in the San Joaquin valley
about Fresno" Coleman explains.
when they got IS per cent of the
crop into their cooperative produc-
ing and marketing, pool in 1912 the
price had been running from IA to
8 cents a pound for the prepared
raisins.
"They .brot it up to 31a cents the
first year, to z cents in 1917 and IA
cents in 1920. Then it slumped rapid
ly to cents pound in 1922 and
about IL cents in 1924 In IL years
they had gone the whole price cycle
and are back where they had started
but hopelessly in debt and no way to
get out. Now in 1925 the plan is
given up.
Banks >Ruined Growers.
What were the reasons for the
rocket-like ascent and fall? The re-
tail price of raisins has nothing to do
with it because that has remained
fairly constant ranging up to %
cents pound, no matter what the
wholesalers and jobbers paid the
growers. It is story Of overpro
duction, mistaken labor policy, real
estate sharks, selling difficulties and
opposition of the big banks.
mo sooner had the raisin growers
established a guaranteed price for
themselves with extra cash distribu.
tons if the market price went above
the guarantee than speculative grow.
ing by outsiders began to increase the
acreage vastly above the require.
ments. The raisin production in
1924 was double pre-war. This made
the maintenance of the IS per cent
pool almost impossible. The gambling
in land values had been beyond be.
lief. ,, .
Refused to Deal with Labor.
"The association suffered from a
boycott by labor consumers since it
refused to deal with organized labor,
either A. F.. of L. 9of /. w. w. 1t
suffered also from a boycott by the
Retail GrOcers' Assn. because it sold
to chain stores at wholesale rates,
discriminating against the retail groc-
ers. Tho upheld by the supreme
court this practice makes no friends
among the thousands of retailers still
outside the chain systems. The
wholesalers boycotted them for the
same reason. Direct selling, pro.
posed in 1922, was no longer pos
sible because of the. $2O,00O,000 de-
felt in the association treasury dis
covered at that time.
Large investments in packing
plants and in research proved extrav-
agant on falling market. The big
banks looked with displeasure on
the banking conducted by the associa,
