GROWERS TOLD
TO FORM PACT

Secretary Wallace told the Florids
Citrus Growers Association in Z
letter made public this week that
differences between groups OF
shippers must be adjusted within
the state and should be adjusted
quickly"
The agricultural head answered
q letter from the association OBJ
jecting 10 e proposed marketing
agreement for the state citrus in
dustry on the ground appointment
Of the seven grower members OF
the control committee was made
without fair and equitable distri-
button.
Blame Placed
Any charge that the department
vas holding up the agreement.
Wallace said, was merely an OBJ
vious effort 70 shift responsibility.
He declared the department will
insist that rights OF growers be
adequately safeguarded under any
agreement to which the secretary
of agriculture Is a party"
Under the agreement tentatively
approved BY Wallace the seven
grower members OF the control
committee we're to be selected by
the secretary in such manner that
at least two marketed their fruit
through the Florida Citrus Ex-
cange, two shippers affiliated with
the Clearing House Assn and two
shippers unaffiliated with either Of
these organizations.
The ~secretary's letter, dated No
vember 10. said in part:
Your first objection appears 10
be a reversal Of the attitude ex-
pressed by the Spokesman for your
group and other shippers at the
public hearing in Orlando and At
conferences held later. The records
show the strenuous objections were
made 70 the nomination or election
OF grower-members by districts. II
was believed. therefore, that direct
selection OF the grover members
would be conducive TO harmony
The department would be glad TO
be advised definitely and officially
as TO the position OF your organi-
zation In this matter.
Method Asked
The department does not oppose
the election Of the grower members
OF the committee. by the growers,
provided a feasible method can be
devised for holding such an election.

" The districts set up in the
agreement applied 70 the selection
OF grower members IN 1895 and sue
ceeding years. This plan did not
apply to selections made for the
current season. In spite Of this
fact. the grower members were Sc
lected by districts as nearly as pos
sible, considering the restriction
placed on their selection by the
understanding reached between the
general crops section and your
group. With one exception, these
members were selected from the
districts in the tentatively APPROX
ed agreement.
"You also stated that the grower
members were not selected with re-
gard 20 marketing affiliations The
growers were selected as members
OF the control committee in order
that the men who grow the fruit

TWELVE VETS OF STATE FIREMEN

 so Years Ago

Fifty years ago, when the first convention of state firemen was held at Danbury, there were 9S accredited. delegates in attendance who automatically became charter members of the State Firemen's association. Today, as the fifty first convention is being held at Elks' hall, there are present in Waterbury 12 of those original members--twelve men who have survived through an entire half century.
 Tonight. at a quiet spot known only to the surviving dozen, there will be memorial dinner a dinner that will recall the days of 1884. when the first convention was held, when pay for firemen was unknown. when equipment was partly hand made. when such a thing as motorized fire engine was unthought of. There will be "reminiscences. happy ones, of those days which are now so far in the dim past. days which live now only in the mind.

DIZZY DEAN SAW
 JUDGE LANDS
Appeared at His Offices To-day-NO Report of
 Proceedings

Chicago. Aug, 17.-(UP)-Diz- zy Dean, the elder of the St. Louis Cardinals striking Dean brothers, appeared at the offices of Judge kenesau Mountain Landis this morning. presumably to lay his case before bascball's high com missioner.
 Judge Landis said he had talked with Dizzy but would make no announcements until after they had held another conference.
 The Deans, who have registered enough victories to call themselves the better half of the Cardinals pitching staff, stayed at St. Louis last Monday when the Cards were playing an exhibition game at De. troit.
 Manager Frankie Frisch in- formed his two pitching Prima Donas that they were fined for their failure to appear at Detroit. Dizzy. proceeded to stage a one- man riot in the clubhouse. while Paul remained in the background offering his moral support. He announced that he was going ito Florida to do little fishing, and Paul Is leaving too.">
 Dizzy then became penitent. only to learn that he was being given 10 days of suspension because Paul was sour on the Cards.
 Now, negotiations between Brea- don, Frisch and the Deans are stalemated. Frisch says, ''both will come back together or both will stay out" The Deans, mean while cant seem to get together on the subject--when one feels like returning to the clubs roster, the other doesn't.

FINDS HIS LONG
 LOST DAUGHTERS
Twin Babies Were Stolen 25 Years Ago-Both
 Are Married

Denver, Aug. 17.-CUP).-A 25- year search for the daughters stolen from them by a disgruntled nurse maid was ended today for Charles Hummer. San Diego, Calif.. business man, and his wife.
 Hummer and his wife lived in Salt Lake City in 1909. He left the city on a business trip and his wife accompanied him. When they returned the babies and the nurse were gone. No trace was found, but Hummer and his wife continued the search. Recently Mrs Plum- mer was informed the children had been adopted in Salt Lake City.
 Through a check of court rec ords and subsequent search Plum mer located the girls, now Mrs Dalton Spencer of Evanston. Wyo., and Mrs John Pluemel of Granger, Wyo. Mrs Hummer is en route here from San Diego to join her husband and daughters in the re- union.
