Farmers Get
Chance at
Surplus Goods

A new plan covering defense
plants corporation rural auctions
has been set up for greater farmer
protection, according to L. G. Hawk,
chairman of the Imperial county
Agricultural Adjustment Admins
tration committee. Word has been
received from the California COM
mittee that regulations phrohibit
dealers, purchasing for resale, from
bidding more than rs per cent OF
the ceiling price established for con-
sumer buyers.
The new plan requires that maxi
mum consumer prices be posted
at the sale site except when the
value of a single item or group OF
similar items is in excess of $1,000
In this case. ceilings are established
by the overall surplus property reg
ulation. If no dollars-and-cents CELL
ings are available on used articles
so per cent of the acquisition cost
or rs, per cent of the retail price
will be used.
The auctions, conducted by the
defense plants corporation, sub
sidiary of the Reconstruction Fin
ance Corporation, dispose of vari-
ETY. of items useful to farmers, such
as hand tools, wire, nails, rope
scoops, shovels and wheelbarrows.
Efforts are to be made by Ru-
dolph Miller, of the Ell Centre office
to have one of the auctions held in
El Centre. Miller pointed out that
many farmers are in need of certain
equipment.
