California is just swinging into Its primary election cam
paign. Senator McAdoo will face two opponents and will
profit by the divided opposition. While the president is
expected to visit the state and
a gesture is hardly needed, though McAdoo s personal
strength is not rated, very high. j
' Gov. Merriam will have a battle for renomination and
tough opposition in November if he wins the primaries.
; The influx of drougth refugees and others from the south
ern tier of states, plus the multitude subsisting in California
on relief and WPA; have resulted in a heavy democratic
majority in registration in this state. Merriam won over
Upton Sinclair and his EPIC idea four years ago; but it took
tremendous effort.

the parking meters have controlled the Portland situation
where time limits did not, indicates that more people are
avoiding driving into the districts where the meters are in
use. Salem wants shoppers to drive in and park near the
stores; that's why it has regulations designated to make
room for them. ,

AAA buys- footstuffs and ether
farm crops millions of cellars
worth. It buys them through
the surplus commodities corpora
tiou. Secretary Wallace anc unc-
ed last week that Le Is r. Eg to
buy more, much more. These
operations of AAA are little
known, to the public. From time
to time. AAA gives oat an
nouncements of them
ua March 6 last,. AAV an
nounced it was going tj buy
eggs. In the announcement. AAA
seemed to feel it was. nessary
to tell why they were sen g to
buy eggs. They set ou.. their
reason. I print part of it here
with. It the reader Xinls this
language of AAA to be tugh
going, he can saip It. A little
farther down I shall try t5 trans
late AAA a language ,nt j words

"Producers ani ha hery men

in egg prices as one case of
liquidation of t resent iaying
flocks. The price decline -they
also reported, has "mused can
cellation in baby chick Aiders,
and has reduced intntior.s to
buy baby chicks in the immediate
future. Should such 2 situa
tion continue, ihey pj'nted out.

result late In 1938 and early
in 1939, with accompanying high
prices to consumeis.
Let us translate thit. Let us
carefully enumerate wht AAA
Is 8a Ting
1. Because egg prices ara low.
raisers of chickens are reducing
their flocks.
2. Because raisers of chK-kens
are reducing thir flocks eggs
are going to be scarce next fall.
a. Because ks wur oe i
next fall, prices to consumers
will be high.
4. Therefore AAA buys eggs.
That is what AAA says. Their
reason for buying eggs, yoi see.
is perfectly plain.- AAA Is acting
in the Interest of the consumer.
AAA is buying present tgfs in
order to cause future e?gs to
be cheaper to the consumer Be
lieve It or not, that's what AAA
says. And I suppose AAA will
stick to its story.
Now why does AAA ro t rough
all that devious circumlocution?
Is it sheer perversion of - think
ing? or Is it propaganda cdrolt-
ness Mr. Wallace Las ln Ms de

I propagandists in the country.

I buying- eg is stated elsewhere
I in the AAA announcement. What
they really bought eggs for was

accomplished an unheard ct feat.
It pleases or think It pleases
both the producer of eera and
the consumer tf them. TLe pro
ducer Is pleased by being; told
that AAA is buying eggs in or
der to- make them .higher in
prices. The consumer Is pl ased
at being told that AAA 1 buy
ing eggs ln order to make them
lower in price sometime in the
future.
Those AAA propagandist are
good.
That two-sided explanatlrn may
seem plausible as to egg But
when AAA came to buy apples,
It wouldn't work. Thev- tould
hardly -say they were buvirg ap
ples in order to lncrare the
quantity of apple seeds In order
to increase the number of apple
trees in order .o increase the
quality of apples. In order to
make apples cheaper to. the con
sumer ten year or so from now.
About apples AAA as frank.
They bought apples, they said,
on May 27th, 'to stabilise the
apple market and Improve re
turns, to" producers." "Imrrove
returns to ' prodncers" means
make prices higher. - .
That la the purpose of prac
tically all AAA's purchases But
AAA doesn't like to say It is -trying
to make prices high. It
Invents , Ingenious phrase that
mean the same thing hut are not
so plainly understood Ty t e con
sumer. When th?y bought early
Irish potatoes, their aanrnnce
ment (on May 11) varied the
language. AAA bought potatoes
to "assist the industry In avoid
ing congestion in regular trade
channels." But t all meats the
same thing make prices higher
than they would otherwise be.
Most of the potatoes and ether
foodstuffs which AAA buys and
turned over to relief agt-ncies.
Some Tought by AAA recently
did not reach the poor. The
incident Is told by the Cmaha
World-Herald. I quote and con
dense:
"Nearly five thousand-dollars
worth of surplus commodity (fed
eral government) potatoct In
tended for Douglas county' in
digent poor were being dumped
to the hogs. today. But the hogs
wouldn't eat them. . They rot
tend in storage her?, and the
odor was too much even for the
porkers. . ' .
"The potatoes had been rfored
In a storage cave, covered with
earth ... rain got in. Neigh
bors noticed steam coming from
the cave. The potatoes were fer
menting the-temperature of the
cozing mass was 93 degrees The
stench could be smelled a block
away."
In direr fields Just now, there
Is dispute about relative effici
ency of government in business
and private enterprise. Apparent
ly AAA efficiency Is not always
perfect. .- . -
