EIGHTH YEAR. NO. 16
Out for Representative
Lower Grades of Aloha-
Huber School to Present
Operettas Monday Eve
Divided sentiment in the dairy in­
dustry nationally has caused the ad­
ministration to abandon its plan of
puttihg into effect a benefit payment
plan of production control, extension
officials at Oregon State college have
been notified. The decision followed
study of the reports fi-om the 15 re­
gional dairy conferences held through­
out the country.
Abandonment of the proposed plan
for the present at least is in line with
the fixed policy of the AAA not to
attempt adjustment programs with­
out the expressed support of a sub­
stantial majority of the Industry, the
announcement sets out.
A limited program of diseased cat­
tle reduction and relief purchases fin­
anced by funds made available by
congress may be carried out.
The
present policy of milk marketing
agreements will also be continued,
but no general control plan will be in­
stituted until the industry as a whole
is more nearly agreed on such a pro­
gram.
The Pacific Northwest gave strong
support to the proposed adjustment
plan and may petition that certain
portions of it be made effective in this
territory, according to Dean Wm. A.
Schoenfeld of O. S. C., who presided
as chairman at the Portland regional
meeting.
On hearing of the ^decision of the
Washington officials. Dean Schoen­
feld said it is a matter of great re­
gret that other areas did not see fit
to collaborate. It is the belief of lead­
ers 4iere that certain phases of the
plan applied locally in the Pacific
northwest would be preferable to leav­
ing the situation drift, although the
opinion is held here that the entire
plan should be put into effect nation­
ally.
While the Oregon, Washington and
Idaho dairymen were strong in their
support of the program with minor
modifications, reports from many
other regional meetings show that the
dairy industry is sharply divided over
the proposed plan. Organized oppo­
sition was encountered in many of
the regional meetings where both the
private and cooperative distributors
opposed proposals for cutting down
sales, preferring some plan of govern­
ment encouraged sales promotion.
This was substantially the position
taken at the California meeting, re­
ports W. A. Lloyd, in charge of ex-
ension work in the western states,
who was with the federal party at Ber­
keley. The delegates from Nevada,
though few in number, supported the
proposed AAA plan, he said.

sented a

bill. The roll call was responded to

ing, May 12.
