PRICE FIXING LAW
UPPLIESJ FRUIT
Hope for Benefit Grows as
Producers Receive Word
From Washington
Proapecta of fruit and berry
growers of the Willamette valley
receiving prices for their products !
ta conformity to proportionate ad
Taaces being made in other lines,
brightened yesterday when in
formation was received from
Washington that the trade agree
ment and minimum price fixing ;
provision of the- new agricultural
ct were to be' applied by the ad
ministrator to fruits and vege
tables. This information, contained in
press dispatches, followed closely
upon receipt of a telegram from
Senator McXary in which he ad
vised Louis L. Lachmund that he
nad taken np the matter of "pau
per prices" offered by canners for
fruit and berries with the depart
ment of agriculture.
McNary's telegram to Lach
mund read:
"Letter discussing pauper
prices offered for certain fruits
today received and I Immediately
presented the subject to the de
partment of agriculture, who de
tailed their specialist from the
bureau of agricultural economics
to call at the "office, where the
matter was discussed at length.
"He referred to subdivision 2 of
section 8 of the agricultural ad
justment act passed by congress
in May of this year. That section
permits the secretary of agricul
ture to enter into marketing
agreements with processors and
associations of producers and con
fers wide, powers dealing with
price fixing of the raw and pro
cessed products.
J "The representative paid that
growers of sour cherries and cling
peaches were preparing to invoke
this section of the act and that It
was open to the producers of
iweet cherries, prunes and pears
or the canners of these products.
"I gave it as my opinion that
it was too late for the majority
of the cherry growers to enter in
to such agreement because the
crop was about ready for the har
vest. 'Termit me to suggest that you
discuss this section with the can
ners and the producers of raw
products and if they desire to
employ the provisions of this sec
tion. I shall be glad to render
such service from this end as lies
within my power."
Several complaints had bf-en
filed with McNary in connection
with the alleged low prices offer
ed by Willamette valley canneries.
