INDIVIDUAlISM GOES
BY THE BOARD

The current membership drive of the
Associated Farmers of Imperial county
brings into focus the greatest change IN
American agricultural life in the last
decade change brought about by pres
sure of outward forces. 1t is the increaS-
ing organization of farmers into groups
for their own protection.
The Imperial Valley farmer, like his
fellows throughout the nation, has been
the greatest individuahst in American
life. That is one reason he is farmer.
He does things his own way: he solves
his own problems; he fights his own bat
ties. And he likes to do it alone. But the
gathering powers of a changing economic
order have forced him to the realization
that he cannot always fight alone, Tor
to do so means to accept defeat.
So ne has had to join other farmers
in organizations devoted to the protec-
ton of agriculture.
Such an organization is the Associated
Farmers of Imperial County, branch
of the Associated Farmers of California
Agricultural labor has always been
coveted by labor union organizers, Tor
the ability to control agricultural LABOR
would give the union chieftanS Strangle

difficult the labor chiefs have had to
resort to "pincers movements" surround
ing the farm laborer with unions on
every side, until he shall be forced to
pay dues and follow union orders. Thus
cannery workers, shed workers. truckers
and market employees have been the flrst
objective of the unionists.
The farmer, who himself performs
manual labor, has often sympathlzed
with the efforts of union organizers. he
has done so out of sympathy for the
laborers who, he has been told, will be
benefited by organization.
But the men who have gained contfol
of labor unions have themselves disabus-
ed the farmer of his sympathetlc
thoughts. They have done so by making
a major part of union leadership dlcta-
torial instead of democratic, by using
unions to deny employment to large
segment of mankind, rather than otter
ing all available employment to anyone
willing to work, through forcing tribute
from employers-tribute not to the work
ing man, but to the union dictator who
sits in an office and labors with his hands
no more than the softest business eXecu-

llNS.
THE FARMER WANTS ONLY
FAIR TREATMENT FOR ALL

Himself the most democratic of beings,
the farmer has been puzzled and astound-
ed at the growth of racketeering IN labor
unions which, under different conditions,
should be his greatest friends. he has
felt himself betrayed. And IN the be-
travail he feels himself becoming the next
victim-not of labor, but Of union organ
izers.
The farmer would not be a farmer II
he were soft, or gutter. II is not III
his nature to accept defeat easily, nor
to allow himself to be overrun by others
attempting to tell him how he must run
his business He has fought the elements
to make his living, and he will not hesi-
tate to fight a man-made organization
which threatens the security both OF him.
self and of his employees.
But it is fight one man cannot make
alone. The enemy is too vast. SO the
farmer is organizing. He is organizing to
make sure that his business remains his
own concern, that his employees shall
retain the liberty of choice which IS
any mans right, and that his goods shall
be delivered TO market without asking
the permission of some individual or
group which has not the slightest con-
ception of agriculture or farm economies.

The Inside Track in Washington

WASHINGTON, June 2 = Fo'
some time the bright collegiate
economists and lawyers attached to
the staff of Leon Henderson, head
of the Office of Price Administra-
ton and Civilian Supply, have
been doing a little job akin to
post graduate research for their
masters theses on the subject OF
price control legislation.
They have boned up on the
crazy proposals that have been
submitted to Congress in years
past, and they have gone into eX-
periments of European countries
with price control legislation and
administration. All their research
has been highly confidential.
Henderson himself, testifying re-
Gently before the House Ways and
Means Committee, indicated that
his office had all the legislation
row required to enforce his edicts.
Earlier, he had indicated to con-
ference of retailers that if he got
85 per cent compliance. that
hOulQ Dt SSiASA a.
assumption is that all this cram
ming by the brains departments
was simply to prepare additional
price control legislation, should it
be needed.
Don't be too surprised, there
fore. if some find day the Presi-
dent reaches into mis- hat and pulls
out a message to Congress asking
for a little more legislation to stiff
fen price control administration.
It isn't from the previous Amer
lean thinking on this subject that
the best laboratory materials is OBJ
tained today, but from experiences
of Germany Ever since World War
I, the Germany of the kaiser, the
Weimar Republic and the National
Socialists have dabbled with price
fixing until now they have it down
to a science, if not a racket.
