Sept. 20 (ff) A basic wage scale of 20 ce.nts - an hour for fruit sorters has been estab lished for the mid-Columbia districts of Oregon and Washington by a vote of the Hood River Traffic association and Its affiliations in all districts. Definite action has been postponed for two weeks, however, pending de cisions from the Oregon and Wash ington state welfare associations which were asked for modifications of their previous rulings applying a 27 -cent hour minimum for at least 35 per cent of the women workers In fruit warehouses. Growers have declared they are unable to meet the higher wage re quest because of lack of assurance of more profitable returns. POET'S CORNER LIFE Would you drink at wisdom's fount?
