(From The Deseret News) Hearings on the proposed marketing agreement for the red sour cherry industry were held for district five Friday, in the Hotel Utah, by James K. Knudson, chief hearing clerk of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration, and Banks Collings, senior agricultural economist of the general crop section of the AAA. Mr. Knudson is a native Utahn, formerly from Brigham City. . Marketing agreements are instituted in various agricultural fields in order to bring back parity prices for the crops, comparable to those of the base period, 1909 to 1914, Mr. Knudson stated. That is, if the price of a case of cherries at that time was equal to the price of some commodity, such as, for example, a work shirt, the AAA aims to this same price ratio. If a substantial number of growers and processors sign the marketing agreement, the secretary of agriculture may issue a license, which makes the agreement binding on the entire industry, as well as signers. non-signe- rs Sets mum price of 3 cents a red sour cherries, below price could not lawfully last summer fell as low a mini- pound on which the go.
