Testifying before United States
department of agriculture offi
cials in a public hearing on a pro
posed new federal hop marketing
agreement at the Marion hotel
Monday, C. W. Paulus, managing
agent of the state hop control
board, declared that over 99 per
cent of the hops grown in Oregon
are sold by the growers for ship
ment ovtside the state.
"Only a very small quantity of
hops grown in Oregon is used in
Oregon for the manufacture of
malt beverage, or for any other
purpose, said Paulus.
The hearing, is providing hop
growers, dealers' and brewers'
representatives an opportunity to
consider provisions of a proposed
new federal hop marketing agree
ment program covering the states
of Washington, Oregon, California
and Idaho.
Forecasting a production cost
f more than 32 cents per pound
to hop growers In 1942, G. W.
Kuhlnwn, Oregon State college
economist, stated a recent survey
conducted by the university ex
periment station Indicated
$135.42 per acre as the cost of
labor used in producing hops
during 1941. The survey, cov
ering 93 Oregon hop growers,
showed the total per acre cost
f production figure to be
$215.45 with an average yield of
840 pounds, Kuhlman said.
G. R. Hoerner, department of
agriculture plant pathologist sta
tioned at Corvallis, told of expert
mental work being carried on to
develop new hop varieties that
would be resistant to mildew and
other hop diseases.
Following conclusion of testi
xnony taking in Salem tonight, the
hearing will adjourn and be re
sumed next Friday at Santa Rosa,
Calif.
Many Picker
Calls Canceled
Little prospect of waste in the
mid-valley strawberry crop was
seen Monday at the federal em
ployment office in Salem where
calls to cancel orders for pickers
exceeded requests for help from
growers in the immediate city
area.
First day of the first full week
of picking found plenty of pick
ers available for berry fields
within bicycling distance of Salem
and for- those where transporta
tion was provided, according to
W. H. Baillie, manager of the Sa
lem office of the employment
service.
Paying 2Vi cents per pound
with a xk cent bonus to workers
remaining throughout the season,
growers could expect to secure a
good grade of help, it was de
clared. Engineers Assigned

reported, was teeming with ac

When I visited It a year ago,

Sterilization
Act Unlawful,
Court Holds
WASHINGTON, June 1 JP)
Declaring that important ques
tions of human rights were in
volved, the supreme court held
unconstitutional Monday an Ok
lahoma law for the sterilization of
certain habitual criminals.
The court struck down the sta
tute because it singled out only
certain types of criminals. Such
"clear, pointed, unmistakable dis
crimination" was called as "in
vidious ... as if it had selected
a particular race or nationality
for oppressive treatment."
The act provides for the steri
lization of men or women thrice
convicted of felonies but specifi
cally excepts "offences arising out
of the violation of the prohibitory
laws, revenue acts, embezzlement,
or political offenses."
In another decision the court
held, 8 to 1, that the wage-hour
law, with its minimum pay and
maximum hour requirements, ap
plies to elevator operators, por
ters and other service and main
tenance employes of buildings
which house companies engaged
in interstate commerce. Justice
Roberts dissented, saying that
"the power of congress does not
reach the purely local activities
in question."
In a 5 to 3 decision, the court
held that the Columbia Broad
casting system and the National
Broadcasting company were en
titled to judicial reviews of the
federal communication commis
sion s proposed regulations of
chain broadcasting.

that grave shipping losses had

said if estimates he had made
based on government price rec

parity for strawberries would be
reached at a price between 7V
and 8 V cents a pound.
Their resolution asked the sec
retary of agriculture "to correct
the depressing actions of OPA by
requiring a compliance with sec
tion 3 of the emergency price con
trol act of 1942, to th. effect that
growers receive 110 per cent of
the parity price for berries pro
duced by them."
While only strawberry prices
were considered at the meeting,
George Tate, chairman, of Subli
mity, said it was felt that any
remedial action obtained would
reflect on cane berry crops and
other fruit.
Growers complained that they
had been led by Edmond F.

tration representative, to believe
they mirht immediately expect
assurance of a subsidy or some
other means of augmenting the
prices the packers can pay, bat
had since been advisd only that
"there is no information at this

A hat-passing to pay expenses
incurred by the growers' commit
