ry THE FARMER'S CORNER: By Ralph H. Taylor Very recentlyin Governor Warren’s office at Sacramento a conference .was held to determine whether Daylight Saving Time Should be abandoned by proclamation, in advance of its automatic termination next January 15th. 4 Representatives of business, industry, and agriculture, exchanging views, found themselves in general agreement with the Govyernor that while Daylight Saving Time should be abandoned at the earliest possible moment, the best interests of the’ State require its retention through the next two months. Just how quickly: Pacific Standard Time can be restored is problematical in view of several important factors developed at. the hearing—factors which were not explained fully in the understandably brief press coverage of the proceedings. Power company representatives made the point that Daylight Saving meant loss of money to them; industrialists reported they had found it almost impossible to shift to conserve power for many reasons——among them contracts with labor unidhs which would force them to pay overtime if changes' from regular time were attempted, Spokesmen for agriculture told the Governor. that losses in that industry were very real ones indeed. Daylight Saving actually reduces, either presently or poten-' tially, the amount and quality of agricultural crops, at a. time when harvesting labor is extremeIy hard to get in many areas. Pruning and other work in the oreéhards and fields is hampered by Daylight Saving time in the winter. It means an hour less work each day and this in turn means decreased production there is not enough labor to ‘go around. 4 An important point also stressed by farm leaders was that the new wealth produced by agriculture each year is largely the basis for metropolitan productivity and, in order to preserve the economy of the State as a whole, it: is obviously desirable to obtain the maximum agricultural yield at the lowest possible cost.
