Horace Berg, speaking at the meeting- of the Kiwanls Club at noon today, made an excellent talk on the anti-oleomargarine substi tute measure before the voters at the November election. Mr. Berg gave the dairymen's side of the question, urging the passage of the bill. He said In part "At the last session of legisla ture a law was nassed. forbidding the mixing of vegetable oils with milk and selling tho same for food. "This law does' not forbid or seek to prevent the importation of cocoa nut oil for any purpose what ever. It does forbid that vegetable oils of any kind be blended with milk to give them the flavor and fragrance of butter and then steal the place of butter as a food. "It prohibits the manufacture and sale of a substitute which does not till the place of tho arti cle It imitates. "The oleo manufacturers do not like this law and they fought It at Salem and when they failed there, they secured a referendum agalnHt It and havo-kept It from Doing en- forced, . . "They do not want to sell their I vegetable oils on their merits, al ' though they have a legltlmato , place, but they are willing to crlp i pie and destroy tho dairy Industry I for the sake of their sales of "sub stitute" butter. "From a purely business and economic standpoint I will make a comparison of the two industries In Oregon. "The dairy Industry of Oregon today is taxed on a valuation of t200.000.onn. There are creameries. I cheese factories and condensed ! wnolesome ioou. I "Over 73 per cent of the farms ' In Oreeon have dairy cows on them, ( llinnto and other conditions favor the dairy Industry and It nas grown accordingly. Now It pays a large per cent of our luxes and It is threatened with gradual extinc tion. "There is only one Oleo plant In ihn iut nf Oregon employing i lih(,u. w(-n( v people.
