GROWERS CODES

For many years growers have sought to regu-
late their industry to assure themselves OF recelv-
ing sufficient returns to pay for the cost of pro-
duction, and to assure the consumer Of receiving
products of good quality.
Many means have been tried to achieve these
results; cooperative, self-regulated groups, and
laws to control the grades and marketing arrange
ments. Iregardless Of the merit Of the proposals,
none have worked.
This year, another method is being sought-a
growers code for the fruit industry. The spon-
rightly insist that if the industry is to be
controlled and conditions bettered, the grower
must be assured that he will receive the cost of
production for his crop and that after it leaves
his hands no expenses will be charged back to his
account
During the years that the industry has been at
tempting to achieve ORDERLY marketing system,
growers have proceeded along the trial and
method, with about so per cent of the group rec
ognizing that it trial, and the other half
insisting bitterly that it was an error
Now, however, growers nearly unanimous
in asserting that code is the logical means of at
tanning their purpose, and since they willing
to give it fair trail it seems certain that the
system will accomplish much good

Constitution Hall will be increased
to total of 10 recitals next season,
according to an announcement yes
terday by Mrs. Dorsey.
These 10 recitals, all Of which will
be given at popular prices, will be
divided into two series of five con-
certs each. and among the world
famous artists to be presented in
these Sunday afternoon events are

Beethoven sonata recital that will be
given by Ossip Gabrilowitsch, pianist

is the announcement that next sea-

pronounced Slen- in-skD, the g.
year-old piano prodigy who has
amazed metropolitan critics with the
depth and profundity of her virtuos-

less interest is the statement of the

her series as yet undetermined.

SCHOOL NEEDS CHIEF
ISSUE IN NEW MEXICO
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
SANTA FE, N. Mex, March "a
New or additional revenue to keep
the schools open is the chief factor
that has influenced him to call a
special session of the Legislature for
April 9, says Gov. Hockenhull, giving
out the subjects on which he will
ask legislation. The session is limited
to these matters. The principal busi-
ness of the lawmakers is to be tax
legislation, while the Governor does
not commit himself to either sales
tax or gross income tax, reaching
the untaxed and providing new sources
of revenue" He wants governmental
expenses cut.
Gov. Hockenhull suggests new liquor
laws, but doesn't say just what he
favors except to bring in new revenue
and to do away with the bootlegger.
Two bills already have been prepared
along this line-one State dis
pensary system BILL the other tight
ening up the Lane law. He takes a
stand on a question over which a
controversy has been raging over the
State in the papers and among the
politicians. The State has no primary
law, or convention law for that mat
ter. The chief executive advocates
a law regulating the present political
practices whether county primaries
or county conventions. Both plans
have been followed, but entirely with
out the law.
