COMMITTEE TO
CONFER WITH
DONALD D. CONN

CantalOupc growers, shippers,
bankers and representatives of the
chambers Of commerce from the
various valley towns met Saturday
night in Brawley Elks club to dis
cuss the possibility of organizing
the fruit and produce industry in
the valley under the Associated Cal
ifornia Fruit Industries, Inc. As
grape growers of the valley are al
ready receiving the assistance of
the California Vineyardists Associa-
ton, an organization working under
the first named larger system, it is
thought by many of the men promi-
nent in the agricultural and finan-
cial development of the valley that
the cantaloupe and lettuce crops
should be handled in n similar man
ner.
To this end committee was ap-
pointed Saturday night to meet
with Donald ID. Conn, managing di-
rector of the California Associated
Fruit Industries, as to a tentative
program of procedure and regard
ing possible contracts under the as
sOciatiOn.
1t was the consensus of opinion of
the growers, shippers, and bankers,
who made up the gathering Satur
day night, that organization under
the cgis of so large and stable an
institution as the Associated Fruit
Industries will give protection to
the small growers, inspire them with
confidence in the cooperative mar
kcting movement and eliminate
most of the difficulties with which
the idea of cooperative marketing
has met in the past.
Included IN the committee who
viii act with Mr.. Conn are Fred
Hilbert or George Jones of the S.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, June 1S.-
The wooing of the farm belt is on.
The poor, down-trodden farmer who
has been pleading, hat in hand, at
Washington, for seven lean years,
suddenly finds himself the object
Of earnest solicitude on all sides.
He appears to hold the balance
Of power in the coming presidential
election. Leaders of both parties
privately feel that the contest is
going to be so close that the middle
western farm states may tip the
scales either way.
Democrats are planning to CAPT
talize the disappointment which the
farmers suffered at the Kansas
City convention. Even Tammany
Hall, never before interested in
ANYTHING west of the Hudson river,
has become concerned for the plight
Of the farmer.
Governor Smith has not commit
ted himself, but he has asked the
Democratic party to make clear
cut and specific recommendation
N the platform on farm rcilef.
Democratic thought on agricul-
tural relief appears to run more in
the direction of working through
tariff changes rather than in at
tempting to set up new machinery
such as is proposed in the McNary-
Haugen bill.
The tcmptation, in view Of the
situation resulting from the Kansas
City convention, viii BE for the De
ruocrats to seize upon the McNary-
1Iaugcn bin and exploit it as
Democratic issue, but the more con
servative Democratic leaders will
oppose this and will seek to link up
farm relief with the assault on the
Republican protective tariff.

bureau legal department in the
eases of two valley hay shippers
against the IIolton Interurban Rail
way Co., ct al, relative to rates on
the shipment of hay.
The brief filed with the Interstate
Commerce Commission is a result of
"A hearing held before that body in
April.
That the rates on hay shipments
in lmperial county are the highest
in California and inconsistent with
the equalization policies of the COM
mission is set forth in the brief. The
