An increased Prune Prices, Dryer Needs, Discussed at State Meet t Although called ' primarily to discuss "sanitary .conditions existing in the dried prune industry, the labor, situation and cur rent prices for dried and fresh prunes came in for considerable discussion at the prune meeting held at the capitol here Tuesday morning on call of J.' D. Mickle, : director of the state department "of. agriculture.... C '''.-'- ' Robert E, Rowe, in charge of ' the Seattle district for the fed-. eral food, and j drug administr ' tibn, outlined the basic' require ' meets of the federal ' law and application to the prnne indus try. Russell White of the Port land office said that federal of ficials had recently seised two lots of Oreton prunes. In Ida-to by way of warning what would happen if conditions existing in tome of the driers are not chanted before the 1942 crop : comes on the market. . ''"-' " 1 Rowe said that from regnla-f. ' tory standpoint and the same . Idea was presented, by Mickle for the state regulatory body." ? prune growers jrnnst . five proper., ' . attention to ,he handling and: ortlar 'of fruit as it Is picked and. delivered'.to .the driers; at-' ientlon to proper cleanliness In . the driers and attention to sani- . try , conditions In the . packing - plants. Rowe urged It as a. patriotic, duty u for all growers to' put driers In best possible sanitary conditions to prevent waste of needed dried fruits. A . resolution drawn up by . a committee named from the general meeting and consisting of Mrs, Ross Simpson, Dallas, R. S. Krea-, son, Dallas, and Prof. Ernest Wier ' gand, Corvallis, "recognized' -the importance of the opinions ex-v pressed by the inspection depart ments of the federal and state government regarding sanitary as pects of, the dried fruit industry then went on to say that due to the poor1 price prevailing for dried 1 prunes, .this season it would be practically impossible to meet all the conditions required for proper sanitation. Reflecting the other labor and price points prominent at the meeting, the resolution points to tne need for materials, labor and more favorable price to save the prune crop. It requests the county and state war, boards to take.inv ; mediate action to assist the growl ers of all counties where prunes are nandied with their labor prob lems and asks the state war board H .

Upshaw of the" state de partment of agriculture, Portland office, said the matter was as sim ple as using plenty of water and elbow grease insofar as the driers are concerned. Frequent changing of water- in- which prunes are rinsed would go a long way toward correcting difficulties in the drier. Prof. Wiegand said. 'About '100 growers attended the session, with all growing districts of the state well repre-' . sented. Reports '. made at . the meeting; were that" the. best offer heard so far this season for dried" . v ; prunes i seven 'cents a'pound? while fresh prunes have', been bought up at from $30 to $40 per ton, which puts the fresh deal on a much better price basis. This was one of the matters that that was much voiced at -the tnceting, growers feeling this to be an-Injustice. -.
