PUTTING THE VALLEY BACK
IN DAIRYlNG BUSINESS

There has been a lot of talk, consider
able action, but no success, in Imperial
Valley during recent years about re-
viving the faltering dairy industry. The
industry, until now, has continued To
falter.
In the last few weeks an active, united
effort has grown into a definite cam
paign TO accomplish the thing about
which, up until now, we have merely
talked.
A committee Of dairy farmers and
business men, meeting this week with
the county board of supervisors, obtain
ed the "loan" of Milk Inspector Walter
Macdonald 10 translate the campaign
into action MacDonald's job will be to
survey Los Angeles markets, interview
Los Angeles distributors, and attempt
to drive wedge there for the sale of
surplus Imperial Valley market milk.
To do this Macdonald will need help.
He will need the help of Imperial Valley
business men and dairymen alike. 1t may
be that, after negotiations in Los An
geles have passed the formative stage,
he will need the active help of both
groups in his negotiations there. 1t is
sure that, before any market milk at all
can be shipped TO Los Angeles, he will
need the help of dairymen here
If the valley can sell its surplus milk
to Los Angeles, the average price paid
to valley dairymen will be boosted con-
siderably As ii is now, the valley pro-
duces more Grade A milk than is needed
to fill local requirements. Under the
present marketing system, the surplus
is sold at a lesser price, to be used as
manufacturing mi | k. Manufacturing
milk, naturally brings a lower price
than Grade A. Thus if this present sur
plus could be sold in Los Angeles as
Grade A milk, which it really is, the
average price would be boosted consider
ably.
The dairyman who is big producer
cannot continue in business if he must
continue to operate under present con-
ditions. 1t is imperative that good mar
ket be opened up for this milk which is
now surplus in the valley.
Until now San Joaquin has had a
strangle hold on the Los Angeles market.
That may be because San Joaquin has
been in a position to supply the Los An
geles demands. Or it may be because
big distributing agencies which operate
in both areas have sacrificed Imperial
Valley to protect their interests else
where. Whatever the reason, the San
Joaquin monopoly must be broken if
dairying in Imperial Valley is to prosper.
To break that monopoly we shall need
all the united effort we can put forth.
1t is heartily desirable that every civic
force in the county join in the campaign
and open the Los Angeles market to

All of TINS material prepared the

Eventually, the subcommittee
draws up two lists. or schedules.
Schedule one consists of the Amer
lean commodities for which con-
cessions should be sought; Sched-
ule Two. of the foreign country's
commodities on which America
might make concessions.
When the State Department has
determined that the other nation

and Two are submitted to the Trade
Committee, which goes
over them with a fine-toothed
comb. II the Trade Agreements
Committee approves of the agree
ment. and if the foreign govern
ment is agreeable. the secretary OF
state issues public notice of inten-
ton to negotiate.
This notice lists the products with
respect to which the department IS
granting concessions.
Dates for hearings before still an
other committee-the Committee ON

The Trade Agreements Committee
makes a fresh study of the two
schedules. with the material de-

In the end, it finally approves
the two schedules and sends them
on to the President and the sec
retary of state. After they have
them-and, as likely as
not. modified some particulars -
actual negotiations with the foreign
country begin.

MORAL OF THE
AMLIE CASE
(Wall Street Jo0rnaD

Mr. Amlie's withdrawal of his candi
dacy for an Interstate Commerce COM
missionership is, all things considered,
a happy solution of the matter, for it
leaves IN the clearest possible relief the
most fundamental consideration which
should govern appointments to admins
trative bodies of this kind. The eandi-
dates personal character was not at any
time questioned in any quarter. The
objection To his confirmation was based
solely upon his opinions and these he
stated with complete sincerity and frank
ness The disqualification constituted by
these lay in the fact that the commission
exercises extensive quasi-ludicial powers
and that the possession of extreme views
on controverted questions of public pol
icy-whether of the right" or of the
"left'-necessarily constitutes bar to
membership in such body. Mr.. Amlie's
views were extreme" 1t happened that
they were of the left" variety, but had
they been at the other end of the social
spectrum they would have encountered
the same fundamental objection : and
rightly.
1nefe Is mere an elementary principle
of natural justice which admits of no
exception. Whoever exercises judicial
or quasi-judicial function upon such mat
ters is unreasonable. We all know what
is meant by the judicial Temperament"
and why we call it judicial. The very
adjective expresses the principle-which
is indeed self-eVident.
The importance, therefore, of appoint
mentS To offices of this kind is greater
today than at any time in our history and
the responsibility resting upon the ap-
pointing authority and upon the Senate
is grave. Men vested with the kind of
administrative powers which we are OBJ
liged to grant to regulatory bureaus or
departments can use those powers either
to defeat the purpose of the law which
they administer or to push it far beyond
the limits contemplated by the laWmak-
erS.
The legislative forum is the place for
extreme views of any kind. They have
no place upon the judicial bench.

LET THE OLD WORLD
FIGHT ITS BATTLES
NEVADA State JOurnal)

Must the New World scorned by the
Old World as lacking in culture, dignity
and diplomacy, periodically pour money
and manpower to Europe into a foreign
war?
The New World, comprising as many
separate and individual governments as
there are in Europe, as many races and
almost as many tongues lives together
in peace and economic security. The
Old World, proud of its history, its cul-
ture and its art treasures apparently
can't govern itself, and every 20 years
or so becomes involved in devastating
war. And once it has become involved
in conflict, il begs the New World to
help.
Once that help is given and the war
safely won, the Old World repudiates
all debts, ignores help given, refuses
even verbal thanks and within few
years reverts to its air of superiority and
Indifference.
Intrigues, frank double crosses and
treaty breaking are the order of the day
in Europe and there is no use binding
ourselves to the fact that demeeracies
are just as guilty as the dictatorships.
Any treaties we make with England and
France are just so many pieces of paper
The decadent Old World doesn't do bust
ness like we do in the New World.
