(Contlnuea from pige one)
said, the steps were taken. "Just In
case." Similar action haa been taken
in the producing areas of California
and the northwest, following threats
and efforts of the "Cannery and
Agricultural Workers Union',, said to
be linked with communistic activities
to launch atrlkea on the eve of har
vests. In this valley, strikes of workers
have been hinted. About -100 mem
bers and sympathizers of the organi
zation last week voted for 40c per
hour for fruit pickers at a P. & E.
lot meeting. Nothing came of the
demand. Reports that communistic
literature had been distributee th.'s
week could not be confirmed. The
district attorney and other law en
forcing agencies are keeping a close
tab, and are prepared to nip any At
tempt to launch discord, or disturb
the peace and prosperity of the val
ley. Orchardists and packera reported
today that there were plenty of pick
ers, and some orchardists reported ft
surplus of help. Local people of
established residence are employed,
as far as possible. The transient labor
supply la now the lowest In several
fruit seasons.
Pay Pickers Bonus
Most of the larger orchards are
paying four cents a box for pickers,
which includes a bonds of one-half
cent offered, for staying throughout
the entire picking season. Experi
enced pickers at this rate can make
from $3 to $4 per day.
A majority of the valley orchard
workers frown upon any agitation,
and have given the cold shoulder to
any attempt to Incite them. Most of
this class are well acquainted with
orchard problems and realize that
many growers, like themselves, have
faced hard rows.
Many of the smaller orchards fin
ished their first picking of Bartletta
yesterday. The Bartlett picking sea
son la expected to last ten days.
Some of the orchards will not start
picking until next Monday. N
The peara were moving freely and
without incident to the packing
sheds today. The first shipment of
cannery Bartletta were dispatched by
railroad Tuesday to California plants.

ON ALL POINTS IN
IB) HUES CASE
The supreme court sustained Cir
cuit Judge H. D. Norton on all points
In the appeal of Ted Haines. Red Top
district resident, serving three years
in state prison for conviction of a
statutory offense. A copy of the de
cision was received today, disallow
ing the apeal.
Haines, through h 1 s attorney,
Rawles Moore, raised five alleged er
rors in the trial and none was upheld.
It was claimed that the court
erred in denying the plea of Haines
for more time and the permitting of
alleged prejudicial tetlmony by the
state. The high court holds that
none of Haines' rights had been Im
paired by the court ruling on a
speedy trial, that due notice had been
given and that Haines had before
the trial date waa set entered a plea
of not guilty.
The clai mof the defense that Jim
Kershap, a Red Top dlatrict resident,
had shown prejudice against the de
fendant was held to be a "side Issue"
that had no bearing on the main Is
sues. The defense charged that Ker
shaw waa a member of a band of
men who rode about the section in
a truck and Induced one of Haines'
bondsmen to withdraw.
The case, at the time, attracted
keen Interest In the Red Top dis
trlct where all concerned were known.
