Dec! 28.—-Broadened markets, due to’ a lessening of financial stringency in the cities and the mounting whir of new business and industry, give promise that the mareh toward farm recovery wiil continue in California during 1937 -—steadily and surely, but perhaps not as rapidly as the more superlative New Year’s forecasts may indieate. “ Although any farm prophesy is necessarily subject to all the whims of nature and fluctuating markets, plus the hazards of industrial wars at home’ and wars between nations abroad, the New Year looks definitely better than the old for most commodities. In all. probability, however, thé price of. commodities and sérvices used in agricultural production will average a little higher during 1937, according to predictions of the United States. Bureau of Agricultural Economics, and the farmer must exe sect higher operating costs. to serve as a partial offset to higher income. Wage scales, for example, are expected to rise with a continuance of demand for workers in non-agricultural activities. ers for seed already have advanced sharply. Feed prices may be expected to soar somewhat, with farm machinery, fertilizer and building supplies also slated for price increases. The farm outlook for major crops and commodities, as gauged by state and federal experts, shapes up as follows: f DAIRY PRODUCTS — Increased consumer demand and some rise in prices; the prospect for ‘the.’ next several years is for further increases in the consumption of fluid milk, cream .and ice cream; there shoula be a rise in butter prices in relation to prices of other commodities. COTTON—Indications of a larger eotton crop in 1937. With prospects . of a further reduction in world carry-over of American . cotton,. the 1937 United States crop could be increased somewhat witout damage to price structure. If the 1937 crop increase, however, should substantially exceed the prospective reduction in carry-over, it would tend to. reduce prices unless demand on the home market increased sharply. FRUITS—Prospect of rising volume of production and -increasing sales, Possih’e slight decline in the total apple and pez. vroduction -will bé offset by larger production of citrus fruits, grapes and cherries. The citrus industry may expect declizsus prices as the crop increases. Apple and peach growers might expect some improvement in price. Consumer demand for all fruits is such that }large crops tend to bring about the ‘same gross income as small crops. TRUCK CROPS tion expected than the record high volume of 1936. It is expected that further improvement in consumer ‘. buying power will about offset the effects of increased supplies and maintain prices at about 1936 levels. CATTLE—General upward trend in. cattle production predicted for next few years. Because of reduced hog supplies in prospect for next two years, the cattle industry will be in a rather favorable position. Further improvement in demand for beef and veal, which has been increasing since 1933, is expected. A good demand for replacement stock of all kinds -is. in ‘prospect. next spring if crop and pasture conditions are fairly normal, forecasting high prices for cows and heifers. POULTRY —Smaller marketings of poultry and turkeys predicted. for 1937, following heavy production and sales this year. Bgg marketings are expected to increase, however. — WOOL—Stocks of wool both in this country and in foreign countries . will probably be below average at beginning of the domestic woolmarketing year in April. A moder}ate decline in demand by domestic mills is possible, but may be avoid-" ed if. urban business continues its ratio of improvement. WHEAT—Large surplus of wheat and lower prices forecast for 1937 if near-normal yields are produced. Crop considerably in excess of do-} mestic needs is expected with prices declining toward an export basis. The acreage seeded to wheat for the 1936 crop was the second largest on record. a 3 Mr. and Mrs. Bob Robinson Hollywood spent Christmas in Ne» . vada ‘City with Mrs. Robingon’s res Z. latives.

Secretary of the Interior and PWA a Administrator I am thoroughly eonvinced that the soundest possible public policy at a time of economic depression is the prompt undertaking of a .farfung program of substantial public work. I am firmly convinced that if we had had a program of public works ready to embark wpon when this administration came into power in Mareh of:.1933, and if Congress had promptly ap»ropriated, not three billions of dollars but a much greater sum with which to undertake that program, we would have experienced recovery much earlier and in greater volume than we have had it. I believe that ithe Public Works Administration should be made a permanent agency of government. As you may perhaps know, the Federal Emergency Administration of Public Works will expire by limitation of law on June 30 next. On that . date many projects will be uncompleted. Necessarily a law should. be passed at least giving PWA’™ time within which to complete the task that it has already undertaken. But for my part, I am hoping for more than this. Even if the necessity for a continuation of building on the present scale no longer: exists, we must think of the future. There is no assurance, based wpon the past that we will not find ourselves in another depression in the years to come. We hope that this will net be the case, but probably there exists in the hearts of all of us a lurking fear that, after all. this hope is just a hope. Tf there should be another depression we must not be unprepared as we were’ when the last one struck us. As an irreducible minimum we should maintain a public works general staff. We should have a re servoir of well considered, carefully planned projects, work on which could be undertaken’ as soon as the necessity arose and money was made available for them. Now, as to the immediate. future of public works, and here also I am expressing only my personal views: I believe that it will be necessary to round out and complete our program by making allocations for limited additional projects. We are working with that end in view. However. I believe that PWA should immediately set about to retrench all along: the line. I am not in favor of approving projects for states or the CoMmmMUNtiEs LO Whieh a-large measure of prosperity has already returned. 2 Moreover, I do. not believe that our grants ought uniformly to be 45 per cent o¢ any other fixed percentage of the cost of.2. project. We ought toiinquire painstaxingly int» the financial ability of the community and if we find that local resources are such that the project applied for can be built with a grant of less than 45 per cent—then we ought to give only such a grant as is needed. There is another public function which PWA might properly perform. Take the case of a municipality where the \banks are insisting upon an unreasonably high interest rate as a condition precedent to floating a bond issue for a school or a sewage system or some other needed improvement. In such an instance PWA might very well offer to -take the bonds of that municipality at a.reasonable rate and thus prevent it from being bludgeoned into paying an exhorbitant rate of interest. It will ‘be realized at once that such policies as I have suggested would mean that wide discrtionary powers should be lodged in the administrator of public works, One important task will be to eduBODY AND FENDER -REPAIR Bring your ear to us. for quick and skilled body and _fender repairs, and painting.
