Texas State Commissioner of Agriculture J.

S. McDonald, to further aid Florida citrus men has requested Texas growers to "cut shipments to the bone" to enable the growers of Florida to get damaged crops off the ground and to the markets. In making- the request to the Texas growers McDonald reminded them of the 1933 hurricane that struck the Texas Rio Grande valley with Florida halting all shipments allowing the Texas growers to salvage thousands of dollars worth of fruit. Governor Holland is pessimistic, however, of the amount of fruit that can be salvaged, pointing out many canneries are not ready to open. Warm weather following the storm means the time in which the utilization of any dropped fruit can be made is limited.

Charles H. Walker, president of the citrus exchange has advised growers to wait until new ceiling prices are announced before selling fruit for future shipments or canning.

Many who have been demobilized, and, gone to work in war plants, have been chagrined to find that they aren't able to take home anything like the pay-checks they had anticipated.

Swift demobilization Is a very attractive slogan for all the families who want their boys back and that is every family. It is certainly a much more popular slogan than would be "immediate and drastic reduction of wages upon the cessation of hostilities!" But, in fact, the two formulas are synonymous. For if millions of service men were demobilized en masse to compete ruthlessly with each other and the existing labor force for an inadequate number of jobs, what would inevitably happen would be a depression of wages to the subsistence level.
