Superiority of Product in
Oregon Gted; Large
Output Forecast
PORTLAND. Ore.. Sept. 2
-Pariflc coast walnut growers,
ame urging continuance and
-some Abolition of the walnut mar.
-ketlng agreement, gathered here
300 strong today for a bearing
conducted by department of agri
culture officials.
Pointing out that the largest
crop In history will be barrested
this fall, E. Goodspeed of Los
Angeles, manager of the walnut
control board, said continuance of
the agreement was the only way
to arert disaster in the indus
try. He said the agreement the
past two years has enabled grow
ers to receive an average of $12
a bag for walnuts or $4 a bag
more than otherwise would have
been expected.
;JV number ot Oregon growers
who contend the Oregon walnuts
are superior and should not be in
cluded in the agreement with
Washington and California, car
ried on the fight against the
agreement.
Attack on Movement
No direct cross-questfoning of
witnesses will be permitted. Chair
man Earl J. Smith from Washing
ton, D. C stated.
A .similar hearing will be held
la Berkeley, Calif., next week.
W. G. Brown, Portland grower,
declared the assault on the agree
ment was virtually an attack by
certain, growers and private pack
ers on the cooperative movement
la general.
Goodspeed pointed out that 25
per cent of the world walnut crop
was grown in Oregon, Washing
ton and California. Under the
agreement 65 per cent of the crop
Is marketed domestically and the
balanee placed in expoit trade or
shelled for use in by-products.
, Continuance of the agreement
in necessary to insure benefits
from a portion of 30 per cent of
import duties which the depart
ment of agriculture is using to
promote foreign markets and de
rolop and encourage by-products

Because of this, it was said,
