Increased paintings of flaxseed

flax to decrease premiums paid to
valley growers. may bring a new
industry TO Imperial Valley, repre-
sentative growers reported this
week.
Charles Vonderahe and Harold

Because OF the tendency Of buy

valley growers for the superior flax
seed oil produced here, Hunt said,
there is fear that premiums will
be abolished entirely within two
years.
Premiums. paid to valley flax
growers at present Hunt said,
amount to more than $350000 an
nually and abandonment Of the
bonus payment would inflict heavy
loss in returns to valley producers.
Because Of the proposed reduc-

Under that setup, Hunt explained,

which are willing TO pay the pre-

Additional Income

Business Leaders
Favor 90uf Of Is
New Deal Policies

NEW YORK, Nov. 90. CUP)-
Fortune Magazine disclosed today
that $1,000 business executives poll
ed in its forum of executive opin-
ion returned majority votes favor
ing nine Of 16 New Deal policies.
The executives, said by the mag
azlne to represent nearly so per
cent of the American management
group, condemned seven New Deal
policies as always having been
pad IDEAS so far as recovery is
concerned"
The nine policies which forum
members said either ought to be
continued or were good ideas for
recovery and only suffer from the
way they were enacted or are be-
ing administered" were:
The drive TO enforce antitrust
laws, housing and home loan acts,
wages and hours acts, Hull recipro-
cal trade treaties, PWA, Wagner
labor act, WPA, low money rates,
and export subsidies
The magazine also said that the
poll revealed that u. S. business
management believes that business
must change many of its policies
before a change in the attitude of
government toward business will
bring about permanent recovery.
Specifically" it said, these men
believe that TO achieve full recovery
business must re-exanine many of
its pricing policies, and 65.2 per
cent agree that one of the princi-
pal reasons for the 1882 collapse
was that many industries had not
expanded their markets by passing
on TO the consumer, in the form Of
lower prices, the benefits Of in
creased efficiency and lower costs"
Tht always bad" New Deal poll
cies were listed as the AAA, the
NRA, pump prining, taxation poll
cies, gold devaluaticn and the
presidents gold powers, Guffey
coal act, and silver subsidies.
This is far from amounting TO
wholesale condemnation of the New
Deal by business" Fortune said
On the contrary, it suggests that
much Of the legislation could pre-
by amendment, be made

that any agreement with the New
/ Cal, to be of advantage to the dis
] trict, must be accompanied by a
condition to sell at price to be
determined by the state railroad
commission. The only method by
! which the district could safely ac-
cept Nev-Cal power would be after
the company had agreed to turn
over its system, Ready advised.
In addition, Ready pointed out
that proposed interconnection with
the district lines. for which New
Cal said it would assume the ex-
pense, would in reality cost the
district about $4,000 in change
over equipment.
Friday the board of directors,
through Evan T. Hewes, chairman,
notified West that the proposal
had been denied and added
The district board deeply re-
gretS your company'S refusal to
consider what we sincerely believe
. is the quickest, and will inevitably
be the ultimate, solution to the
competitive power situation in the
valley, BY sale of the company's ..,
properties to the irrigation district
the company would realize on its
investment here and both the COM
pany and the taxpayers of the val
ley would be free from the finan-
cial burden of what you have
termed insane competition.
May we again invite you TO en-
ter into negotiations looking
to settling the. power controversy
on a mutually Beneficial basis :"
Ready's disclosure that the Blais-
dell line is nearing completion
dropped like a bombshell upon dis
trict authorities. Previously it had
been reported that the line could
not be ready for at least year.
The Reclamation Bureau will
have completed within the next
two or three months a transmits
sion line from Parker dam to BlaiS-
dell, Ariz," Ready reported. This
is a public project. Interconnection
with it would make available inter-
change source of power of suffi-
cient size. which with existing dis
trict facilities should make possible
taking care OF a power load practi-
cally twice as great as that which
could be handled by the proposed
interconnection with Nev-Cal. Steps
should be taken at once to work
ont Slch an intercOnnectiOn" ;"
Again and again Ready's report
returned to the fear that Nev-Cal
could not be relied upon to live up
to supplying power. He pointed out
that in the event one of Nev-Cals
lines were out of commission, dis
trict service might suffer.
"Of necessity, the Nev-Cal'S aim
