Hog Markets
Discussed In
Farm Dispute
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
NV NIArAr ATTCUnNTny

Raleigh, Feb. 1.-"Every dog must
have his day." says the old proverb.
Today the hog had the floor in the
agricultural building where the joint
committee on duplication of activities
between the department and the col
lege are holding daily sessions. The
hog is of interest to this committee
for two reasons as the subject of anti
cholera vaccination and as a fast de-
veloping potential source of income
through marketing groups in eastern
Carolina.
Under the working agreement en-
tered into last year by Dean Schaub
and Commissioner Scott, activities of
the college and department were de-
fined so as to eliminate as much over
tapping as possible. But there are
some zones where it just isn't possible
to say exactly where promotion ends
and service begins. Marketing is one
of them.
The idea of cooperative marketing
of live produce in North Carolina ORR
ginated in the marketing division of
the department back in the early
twenties. The car lot poultry ship

it. And along with it they want all
the marketing that the department
has developed.
Aggravating the situation to some
extent in the minds OF some farmers.
but really benefiting them according
to both college and department Off
cials, is proposed establishment at
Elizabeth City of packer operated
market. This would not compete with
but rather would supplement the
work of the mutual associations and
would quite likely bring more for
hogs, say the officials referred to
above.
Hog raisers were here today to let
their wishes be known. 1t was I'M
derstood they came with their minds
made up in favor of the farm agents
continuing their work Department
folks wonder if the farmers really
want them to lay-off and to discon-
tlnue the fine work which the depart
ment has done. The answer to that
question holds the fate of the mar
ketlng work, not only for hogs but
Tor vegetables, Strawberries, peaches
and all other fruit and truck crops.

A New Procedure

Reference by the United States
Senate OF amendments to Thea Ma
tional Labor Relations act to the
labor board itself for comment and
suggestions is an unusual procedure,
to say the least. 1t is the equivalent
CT asking the Supreme Court for it's
views on the so-called court pack
ing" bill of two years ago. and GER
tainly no one thought of that at the
time. It never would have been CON
sented to by the sponsors of the
measure had such 2 rash thing been
proposed.
This labor act move has the effect
of asking government bureaus and
departments to pass on the desirabI-
ity of legis alton proposed in the
Congress and affecting them, before
giving senators and representatives
the chance to vote or give an oninion
OF their own. From the standpoint
of Congress, which created the labor
board end whose function it is to
change it, if there is TO be anv
change, it is not the business of tho
board as to what the law-making
body wishes to do with it.
Senator Thomas lets it be known
that public hearings will be held aft
er interested government agencies"
have had opportunity to pick the
amendments to pieces and plan the
lire of a. - o. defense, as the cas-
may be. ANY mad rush always re-

suits in bad legislation" said the
senator. not intimating, of course,
that the labor act itself was original
lv a creature of such dreadful pro-
cedure, or that it might POSSIBLY be
placed in the classification he men
toned.
It is. to be sure, no new thing for
the administrative branch of the
government to attempt to do the
thinking and the voting for the leg
islative body, but what is happen
ing to Senator Walsh's amendments
to the labor act is at least an APP
pfoach from a different and a dang
crous angle.

ments were the first. Of somewhat I'M
savory memory, the old poultry as
sociations did stimulate interest in CO
operative shipments. County farm
agents worked along with department
representatives and there was no con-
flict. Came the depression years, and
the budget of the department wouldn't
stand much for marketing. But the
need for it out in the country was
greater than ever. Farm agents car
ried on and extended the idea to some
fruits and vegetables, and in late
years right extensively to hogs in
Edgecombe and more eastern coun-
ties. Within the past two or three
years hog shipments have brought
lots of money into the Albemarle
counties and the entire peanut area
Most of this work was developed by
county agents working under the col
lege.
Meantime. the marketing division
of the department was taking on new
life. One of the major items in Com
missioner SCOTS program for agri-
culture, he has encouraged and en-
larged the marketing service to a
point far ahead of pre-depression &C
tivity. And his division is ready to
take over the hog marketing. It fits
in with the whole program; and it
also conforms to and effectuates the
memorandum agreement with State
college on activities. If marketing is
anything at all, it is a service. The
educational work has already been
done. College authorities do not want
to give up the work. They say they
developed it and are entitled to keep
