Showers Great Aid
other crops planted at present
include turnips, elephants, and
broccoli.
The recent showers are OF inesti-
mable value to the fall crops, and
have resulted In a heavy demand
for bean seeds, Mr.. Jennings said.
Referring 10 citrus and early
shipping, Mr.. Del Curto says:
The incentive for moving citrus
fruit early in the season In an ef-
fort TO secure the temporary high
price is too great for many indi-
viduals. and as q result a great
quantity Of inferior, undeveloped
and. shall ! say. immature fruit. Is
shipped. The mad rush for the
early price with undersize fruit
and its effect on the market IS also
without contradiction. and needs
no further elaboration"
There are six million citrus trees
in the Valley, and many OF these
will begin bearing and producing
fruit Immediately. The shipping
season in the Valley opens Oct l

INDIA YOUTH MEETING
AT LAHORE DENOUNCES
BOURGEOIS BETRAYALS
I'm Spectacular Conference, Demands Freedom
for India Under Worker and Peasant Rule
Sends Greetings of Solidarity to the Young
Workers Leagues of the Whole World

tions, before any resolution was
read, the secretary made an appeal
to help the prisoners held under the
Meerut and the recent Delhi (the
case of the alleged bombing of the
British Viveroy's train) conspiracies.
An enthusiasm arose and from these
poor workers and peasant (you
Americans cannot even imagine
what Indian poverty means) LOO
rupees were collected in cash, and
the women removed their jewelry
five gold and one silver bracelet,
eleven gold rings, one nose ring,
one wrist watch and one mans
watch.
The following resolutions were
the three important ones adopted:
1. This conference strongly con-
dennis the action Of such political
leaders who are ready to compromise
with the British imperialist govern
ment in their attempts to bring
about compromise with British inn
perialism in the form of Dominion
Status with a view to perpetuate
the exploitation of the masses Of
India.
2. This conference emphatically
declares that a full-fledged Repub-
lie of Workers and Peasants is the
complete independence of India. 1t
further declares that Dominion
Status is a trap for perpetual ex-
ploitation of the masses of India
with the joint consent of British
imperialists and Indian capitalists,
land lords and feudalists.
8. This conference offers it's fra
ternal greetings to all the Young
Workers Leagues of the world, and
sympathizes with their struggle in
behalf of the subject races, the ov-
erthrow of imperialism, and extends
it's cordial approval of their right
of assertion of self-determination.
The conference consisted Of $50
delegates. The Junjab was repre-
scented by 70 peasants and so indus
trial delegates. The rest were peas
ants and industrial delegates from
the whole of the rest of India.
