The questions to be dis- cussed were: Are women more effective working in their own groups or would they be of mare benefit to the organization if they were part 'of the organization th men? • "The fact is that they do not take nearly as much part in farm organizations AS do men. Why is this true? (a) is it because wom- en are just not. interested in the kind of problems which art of concern to farm organizations? (b) Is it because MCI) don't want them active in farm organize, tions? (c) 1 it because, on the whole, women prefer their own organizations? (d) If farm organ- izatioes do not dchl with the prob- lems' that mo4 interest women— is it true that they are neglecting 'these problems to the detriment of farmers and farm organiza- tions? (e) To get greater partici- pation by women, what is the right organization structure to achieve this: Is it to have a wom- en's section and NV011letl'S pro- grams — or is 11 (0 have greater women's participation without any special women's section or porgram? (0 If there is It wom- en's section will the men then not give proper attention to the prob.! lents raised by women or will; they give more attention to 'them? (g) Are there a number of women In your community who would like to work and contribute more to farm organizations?

The growers succeeded in main- taining last year's schedule of prices but accepted an increase in harvesting costs of $2.00 per ton. Processors originally re- quested a price schedule of $5.00 per ton lower than in 1957 as well as the increase in har- vesting charges..

The 19437 schedule of prices, based on tenderometer read- ings provide nine different lev- els ranging from $84 a Lon to $150. The schedule was won by growers last year after they had campaigned for it for a num- ber of years. They felt it gave farmers a fairer return for the quality of their crop.
