Tolley, head of the federal administration' special crop section, who said there have been complaints ibout the price canneries propose to pay growers for pears in Oregon and Washington. Burns stressed that the price of $15 a ton for No. 1 pears in the two states, and $10 for No. 2 grade, was established aa a minimum, and he said growers will be paid not less than that amount, and more If trade con ditions permit. He mentioned that while some California packers have paid $20 a ton for the very best pears obtain able, "there are tens of thousands of tons for which they pay much less, and thee cheaper grades compete with our own best grade." "In California," he said, "it costs an average of $4 a ton to move pears from the orchards to the canners. In tne north west th Is cost averages $io 2 a ton. Our price at the can nery, then, is $2 02, compared with the California price of $24 for the best grade grown in that state." PLANS .OOF.
