ment station. While in some re-

Sanders Talks on
Poultry Problems
Expresses Impressions Gath
cred from Conferences
Attended Recently

S. d. Sanders, President of the
Washington Cooperative Egg and
Poultry Association was the main
speaker at the poultry local meet
ing in the Prosser community on
Tuesday night Of last week. Some
of the high-lishts of his talk were
very interesting to the big crowd
which attended the meeting.
Mr.. Sanders said that he had
been talking to groups of from
six to eight hundred and pointed
out that this showed the interest
the farmers were taking in their
own business. After taking few
minutes to give his impression Of
his ocean trip to England and var
ious instances in his trip until he
finally reached the World Con-
gress to which he was sent as =
delegate BY President Hoover, he
launched into the big problems as
he saw them.
: It was Mr.. Sanders impression
gathered from conferences with
Poultry dealers and bankers and
other business men that as a whole
England had no definite policy
toward maintaining industry. Lat
er he pointed out that this was due
quite largely in his opinion to the
Dole system which provided man
with 8 wife and three children,
with sixty dollars per month. This
man may receive this dole and yet
work three days per week. Because
of this condition labor has lost its
initiative and an honest days
work is difficult to get from the
laborer in many instances. He Wis
tied the slums in one of the cities
and stated that between 1880 and
g o'clock cheap saloons on nearly
every corner and often two or three
in between were the gathering
places of men, women and child
rem, drinking cheap beer and eat
ing potato chips.
England has not developed her
agriculture as it has been develop
ed in this country, their lands be-
ing largely devoted to pastures.
The situation in England is one Of
rather acute finances brot abou.
by the lack Of power readjustment
and taxes are abnormally high. Tax
on automobiles, as an example, is
five dollars per horse power and
