A Clear Exposition of the Citrus
Marketing Crisis

Several hundred Valley growers who have attend
Cd one or more Of the meetings held recently under
the sponsorship Of the Texas Citrus Fruit Growers
league have q better understanding Of the problems
confronting them and their marketing agencies in
the disposition Of their fruit crop.
TO be sure. practically everything that has been
said at these meetings has been said before at one
time or another. But Banks I. Miller has given the
problem as clear an exposition and as thorough q
dissection as could be asked, and has pointed out
the remedy in . clean-cut fashion.
AS Valley growers have been told many times,
Mr.. Miller reiterates In forceful fashion, an absolute
control Of the great bulk Of the citrus tonnage Of the
Valley must be placed In the hands OF one sales
agency II the grower is to get what can be gotten
and what should be gotten for the product Of his
orchard.
In his talks to the growers. Mr.. Miller gives ex-
ample after example OF the harm that is done every
year by shippers themselves, as they bid one against
the other in an effort to dispose Of carloads Of grape
fruit. Perhaps because lie is decidedly in the public
eye as the successful corn shipping season ends, per-
haps because no one who has actually engaged in the
shipping business has seen fit TO meet growers and
discuss the marketing situation. his appeal to citrus
growers to do something about their own business
makes @ most decided appeal to reason.
II the central marketing organization. controlling
the major portion Of the crop Of the Valley goes over
. 1df1~2Scu W oAAACA1 6Lu ILo ClLIuS BIUWcTS league,
q great step forward win have been accomplished. a
step that should have been taken years ago. II Il
does not 60 over. q great good viii have been accom-
plished In the bringing home once more to citrus
growers OF the Valley the need for action In the pro-
lection Of their own interests.
There is nothing revolutionary about the proposal.
II is one that has been discussed for years right here
In the Valley by Valley leaders. The aim sought Is
the same objective that has been the goal Of every
citrus cooperative marketing agency that has func-
toned here.
Newspapers Of the Valley have preached this doc
trine for years. and have at times become most dis
couraged over the results Of their preachings.
With the example OF the California Citrus Elk
change before us. 1t becomes increasingly evident that
the Valley. II It is Il to figure at all in the citrus mar
kets Of the nation. must put the control Of its grape
fruit crop In the hands Of one marketing agency.
We can bring about this accomplishment this year
or next, or we can wait until our markets are com
pletely demoralized. and then In the frenzy Of des-
peration, do what should have been done 10 years ago.

One Of the most important steps in ordinary Life
insurance examination IS determining whether sugar
is to be found In the urine, as the number Of deaths
from diabetes Is greatest in the class Of people who
take out the largest life insurance policies. Moreover,
diabetes is one Of the diseases which Is definitely in
creasing as a cause Of death.
In the United States 1t Is one Of the leading
causes. accounting for about % deaths for every
100000 Of the population as compared with las
deaths in England and 1913 deaths in Canada for each
100000 Of the population.
In childhood and In the younger adult ages there
has been a distinct improvement in the death rates
from diabetes. and the major portion OF the increase
affects women in the advanced years OF life.
Sir Walter Langdon-Brown, eminent British physi-
clan. believes that this increase In older women Is
due TO the fact that they are drinking alcohol much
more freely than they used to.
One Of the difficulties which c~onfronts life inSur-
snce examiners is the fact that sugar may appear in
the urine In some cases without presence OF the con-
dition called diabetes. Many conditions may be
associated with presence OF small amounts Of sugar
in the ~excretions and still not with diabetes. Some
times o~veraction Of the thyroid gland will lead to
transient appearances Of sugar.
There are cases, Of course, In which the difficulty
- ~ AC AdACg sLS AhSe VAC sugar ~
pass when there Is an excess amount Of sugar in the
diet.
Insurance companies cannot afford to grant policies
to those who have diabetes without. Of course. tax
ing this fact into account. The diabetic person Is
more likely to become infected than is the one who
is not diabetic.
Diabetes also show o special liability to the onset
of hardening Of the arteries at an early age. There
fore. the life insurance examiner when he finds
sugar present in the urine Is likely to want TO make
repeated studies OF the ~excretions to find out whether
the sugar appears regularly. and also the extent to
which It appears.
II the person is found to be passing sugar regularly
and discetic acid as well. the examiner Is certain to
say he is unacceptable as a risk for life insurance.

of the principles of Communism is
necessary to make the cause abhor-
rent to libertyloving Americans.
These principles he described as the
teaching of a hatred of God and
all religious faiths, a teaching of
class hatred and the teaching of
the doctrine of violence in the de-
struction of property and inherit
ance.
Both Communism and Socialism
trace their birth back to Karl Marx,
he said, whose doctrines were
evolved in 1847 in Germany when
labor had no political or civil rights.
No such doctrines are applicable
now, he said, in view of labors ad-
vancement during the last 40 years.
Rep. Fish did find one admirable
thing about the Communists. He
said they are most steadfast to their
principles than either the Repub-
lican or Democratic parties who
make their platforms one day and
break them the next"
I'm referring particularly to the
Democrats" he admitted with
laugh.

Mutt would commute his death SEN
tence to life imprisonment, Richard
Chapman, 21-year-old Hobart farm
hand, today spent his last day in

He is scheduled to go to the cleo

From Indianapolis came word that
the Governor, who already has given
Chapman three reprieves, would not
grant further clemency to the
youthful slayer
