Dr. O. J. Wheat ley. extension economist of the U. S. A. C, was present and discussed with the group somo of their duties as a committee and stated that they were to act, as an advisory board for the various governmental agencies having to do with land and water use.

Mr. G. S. Quate, state coordinator of the Soil Conservation Service, discussed the need for soil protection ir the northern part of the statu and stated that if a soil conservation district was organized much soil erosion could be prevented by the employment of CCC boys to build terraces, reseed grazing land, develop water supplies, work on roadways, etc. Machinery would bo available for soil erosion work within the district and a trained man would lie employed to work out plans and advise as to ways and means of conserving land and water. The group present voted that there was a great need for such a project and recommended to Mr, Quate that he proceed with the preliminary work of organizing such a district. Work will be done Immediately to acquaint the people of the county with the advantages ef forming such a conservation district because It has to be dona by a vote of the people involved.

The Sugar Act requires, among other conditions of payments to growers, that all persona employed on a farm in the production, cultivation, or harvesting of sugar beets bo paid in full by growers for all such work1 at ratts not less than those determined by the Secretary of Agriculture to be fair and reasonable. For the pur pose of this determination the sugar beet producing area was divided into nine districts within each of which one scale of minimum wages applies. For the United States as a whole the general level of the minimum wage rates announced is about 4 percent below that of 1938, practically the same as that of the minimum rates determined for 1937 after enactment of the Sugar Act, and approximately 5 per cent above the general level of sugar beet wages prevailing prior to passage of this legislation. This determination of minimum wages was made, after Investigations, find following a series of public hearings held between January 9 and January 30 in Detroit, Michigan; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Billings, Montana; Seattle, Washington.
