It's All Different Now InI.V.

of one kind or another.
The first step in the marketing
process was handicapped early in
the war by the shortage of labor.
The farmers had endless difficulty
in getting men to prepare the crops
SO they could be hauled away from
the ranch. Then they we're faced
with the prospect of having to take
all their products to the roadside
because truckers did not want to
use their tires and gasoline going
into the field to pick up things for
delivery. That was a bad one.
Some Of the farmers did not have
enough of the proper equipment to
take their crops to the roadside.
WORST HANDICAP
Worst of all the handicaps.
however, was that caused by the
rapid disappearance of trucks from
active service. There had been a
surplus Of trucks available for the
marketing OF the crops. The war

In Spite Of Difficult

sugar rationing is imposing. In
the desert area. particularly, melon
men, who are planting now. believe
they can dispose of the fruit. since
this type of food is easy to move
on short hauls to military camps.
Although the Army and Navy
have been consistent buyers of car
rots and cabbage in Imperial Val
ley this winter there is available no
check Oil the percentage Of the
crop that has been disposed of
through these channels. The mil
itary does not buy direct from To-
cal packers and shippers, but
through brokers, SO that an accu-
rate survey of produce destinations
is not available.
CHIEF OBSTACLE
Transportation viii be the chief
obstacle to the marketing OF even
a limited melon crop, however as
the government has issued some
stringent statements about denying
shipping space to agricultural COM
moGitieS which have been designat-
Cd as nom essential. and CT these,
melons are one.
The valley will do its best to
keep sugar in the bin with 1869
acres OF sugar beets to be har-
vested this spring and summer.
Last October the planting was
nearly COCO acres and in March,
1912, the planting was on $500
acres. This domestic sugar produc-
ton feeds oul Army and civilians
alike, supplementing the island i'm
ports of sugar cut short by the
submarine warfare.
NEW PROGRAM
Incidentally, the Department Of
Agriculture has announced a pro-
gram, supplemented by contracts
between Commodity Credit corpo-
ration and Sugar-beet professors,
which will, without an increase in
the ceiling price of sugar, assure
growers for their 1943 crop an in
crease OF $3.50 a ton over the price
received for the 1912 crop. 1t is
estimated the 1912 crop will average
basis, the 1943 crop should average
around 81 ton.
Rationing Of sugar, however, will
hit one Of the larger dairy prod
uctS cf the Imperial Valley, name
ly, ice cream. Sugar quota for the
manufacture of this nutritious and

bodys happiness in Southern Cali

Ice cream will continue to be

HY OLGA COSTELLO


In spite of a thousand and one
handicaps Of labor shortage, trans
portation difficulties and rationing
Imperial county is still the full
market basket of the southwest,
contributing untold riches of food
fresh vegetables, fruits, milk and
meat to the war effort.
Lettuce, which was pronounced a
non-esSential crop by the Secre-
tary of Agriculture, hase served the
armed forces we'll as the case turn
ed out. Crop seasons in Imperial
Valley are just the reverse OF what
Washington is aware of for the rest
of the nation, so most of the local
crop had been planted by the time
Secretary Wickard'S uk2Se came
through Lettuce was taboo as a
war crop because it takes up too
much shipping space for the
amount of nutriment which it sup
plies, according to the scientists of
the US. Department Of Agricul-
ture.
However, since the Imperial Val
ley lettuce was already SprinPing
green from the ground when the
bad news came, an exception was
made in favor of the local growers
who would be allowed to harvest
just this one crop without moleSta-
ton. They were even allowed, fl
nally to use imported Mexican ma
tionalS to cultivate the crop and
to harvest it so long as no more
essential crops were offering en-
plOyment Now as the shortage Of
railroad GERS became apparent, let
tuce is being given the right -of-Way
To market, since it is periShable
and must move On the day it is
ready or be lost. Carrots and cab
bagc can wait a week or SO.
PURCHASE CROPS
The Army contractors have pur-
chased an estimated quarter Of the
current lettuce crop. taking a con-
siderable portion of the dry-pack
lettuce which moves by truck to
southwestern cantonmertS, as well
as carload lots in volume which 60
by rail tc the most remote camps
OH the east coast.
AT this writing decisions are be-
ing made regarding cantaloupe
planting, which ordinarily follows
lettuce in the vast ceres of Impe-
rial Valley. Early indications were
that the melon acreage which ag-
gregated more than 1850 acres last
year, would decline, perhaps as
much as a third as melons, too
were listed as uon-essenti2l co,n.
modities. for the same reason that
lettuce was.
CHANGING MINDS
However, it appears new that
many growers have changed their
minds and are planting melons in
stead of diverting TO tomatoes and
squash, or alfalfa. They are taking
the chance that Army and Navy
contractors will be eager to buy all
types of melons as a substitute for
rationed sweets and to compensate
for the limitation of the supply of
ice cream and soft drinks which

Marketing as is" and "aS was
are so different that Imperial VAL
ley farmers have war all their own
the war to get their products
to market after they have grown
them.
Marketing farm products was not
such a staggering feat of genius be-
fore the war The whole machinery
was SO well oiled, so tried and true,
that it worked without a hitch all
up and down the line. The farmers
produced the food and it was
Whisked away without much of a
to-dO.
NOTHING BUT TO-DO
There is nothing but to-do in
wartime whenever it becomes nee
eSsary to market farm products.
From the sidelines it looks as
though the whole marketing set-up
would bog down in a mass of red
tape, qdestionnaires, and shortages

farmers discovered many trucks had
been diverted into other lines of
endeavor and no longer were avail
able TO haul farm crops.
Desperate were the conferences.
Farmers kept hearing that still
more stringent rules governing
truck transportation were in the
offing. No one could find out any

from the Office of Defense Trans

CDT. The men who made the trips
came back to Imperial Valley as
puzzled as ever. More rules and

The Travellers Notebook
Rail Passenger Increases Run Up to 500 Pct;
Atlantic Coast Resorts AgIow as Dimouts End:
Poconos Otter Surprises to Brief Vocotjonist

Some idea of the problems of the
railroads in their attempt to pro-
vide civilian travel accommodations
deemed necessary for reasons Of
health and war effort work may be
seen from excerpts or recent survey.
Passenger trafic movements in
the New England and Great Lakes
areas have been about 200 per cent
greater than in 1910. In the same
period passenger travel to the South
and Southwest shows increases from
500 to slightly more than 600 per
cent with all main trunk lines
burdened.
A vivid panorama of the aumum-
nal wartime travel picture is illus
trated in st. Louis where Is trunk
lines have made the city the second
largest travel center in the United
States. Here IS 900 to 10000 persons
and 100 passenger trains plus an
average of 60-war- specials are
siphoned in and out of the st.
Louis Union Station every day.
Obviously, more forceful restric-
tions loom for non-essential travel,
new definitions of which may be
expected as winter resorts with
heavy advance bookings prepare for
big season.

Msgr. Mccormick, the new rector of
their university, has for 30 years
been q member of its faculty. and is
therefore known personally to thou
sands of its graduates as q beloved
teacher and friend.
Miss Barr has travelled widely.
She has visited most European CEN
ters of art and learning and before
the war she toured Russia, Rumania,
Turkey, Greece, Yugoslavia and
parts of Africa.
She was in Vienna Just after Hit
ler's occupation of Austria. With
four women travelling companions,
she reached the hotel where they
had reservations, to find it appar-
emily in total darkness. After pres
entation Of their credentials to Nazi
guards. they were quartered there
for the night. The next day, before
their departure, a hesitant Viennese
wearing a Nazi button and serving
as porter, fearfully told them that
over 10000 of his people had been
taken away from the city and that
his countryman, Schuschnigg. was
imprisoned but a stones throw
away.
Subsequently. when Miss Barr
reached the United States on the
last voyage of the steamship WASH
ington before war was declared, the
first item she saw in a copy Of The
Washington Star was one to the ef-
feet that their Viennese hotel was
a Nazi military headquarters and
that Schuschnigg was imprisoned in
one of its wings.
Miss Barr will represent the wom-
en- graduates of Catholic University
at the national reunion Of the alum
nj association in New York City to-
day and tomorrow.
