Many young men and women have been lost to this community through entrance into the aimed forces and defense work, but apparently others have taken their places. Many persons have sold farms and left this community, but the new farm owners have located here. The number of young people living here has been definitely reduced, but the number of families has not. It is practically impossible to rent a good ho use in Nyssa at this time. Available houses last year were not nearly so scarce. Grant Rinehart, city recorder, said that coll ections for water this year have kept abreast of the collections of 1942. The number of meters of the Idaho power company in use this year is practically the same as last year. The circulation of the Gate City Journal, which circulates mo stly in Nyssa and on the rural routes, has incr eased. Nyssa certainly has been adversely affected by the war, but not nearly so badly as some ot her inland towns. THREAT TO THE BEET INDUSTRY Under cover of a war emergency, Henry Wallace and his fellow theorists evidently mean to root the sugar beet industry out of the west By limiting the beet price so it was less profit able to grow beets than other row crops they greatly reduced the acreage and closed several factories this year. Next year they apparently mean to go the rest of the way. This is one of the most serious threats south ern Idaho has ever faced, and no community is more affected than Nampa, locale of the finest sugar factory in the state. It isn’t that we can’t get along without the market for beets and the factory payroll for the remainder of the war. We can and not miss it too much. But if beet acreage is reduced much farther profitable factory operation will be impossible and our plant, along with others, will be closed and perhaps dismantled. Then when the war ends and we need the sugar industry both for the revenue it produces and for the feed it ma kes available to stock we won’t have it. The sug ar will be coming from Cuba and other islands where cheap labor is available, where pay roll taxes and other burdens American ind ustry carrie« are unkown. Then we can whi stle— in vain— if Mr. Wallace or those who see as he does are still in power. W e’d better make our fight now, before the whole blow falls, rather than trv to bre athe the breath of life back into a dead in dustry later. — Idaho Free-Press. L.D.S.
