Central Warehouse and Is
suance of Labor Certifi
cates Provided Will
Aid Farmers in Harvest
LA GRANDE, Or.. July 22. (AP)
A labor exchange plan suggested by
Hiram T. Smith, maintenance engi
neer of the state highway depart
mental shops here, has been adopted
by the Union county relief commit
tee appointed by Governor Julius L.
, Meier. The plan also has been en
dorsed by the business men and the
' Granges.
In brief, It provides for a central
exchange warehouse, which will be
managed by Lester H. Br am well, for
mer banker, and the issuance of "la
bor certificates" Instead of money as
payment for labor. Fuel and food
also could be purchased with t,he
certificates. ' The "money" would be
Issued In various denominations,
each bill supported by Its face .value
In labor or produce.
Through this system farmers ex
pect to have their crops harvested,
turn In a certain percentage of their
produce for labor certificates, pay
their employes with these certificates
and the employes In turn may pur
chase food or fuel from the exchange
warehouse.
The plan, which la expected to re
duce unemployment materially in the
county, probably will be In operation
by the first of next week.

AS FARMERS' FOE
KANSAS CirTT, July 22. ;;p The
federal farm board and various rec
lamation . projects were described as
enemies of the farmers, at the con
gressional hearing here Into govern
mental competition with private bus
iness. John B. Gage, lawyer, a repre
sentative of the livestock Interests,
yesterday assailed the National Live
stock Marketing association, a farm
beard agency, by declaring that "any
organization that receives at least 96
per cent of Its working capital from
the government truly can be said to
represent the government In busi
ness." t
The depression In livestock prices,
he declared, has. developed since the
agency had built up a credit struc
ture of $20,000,000 by the use of gov
ernment money. He charged that
"the Inability to obtain credit
through normal channels had caused
many private producers to become
slaves of this farm board agency."
