COTTON STRIKE GOES ON WHILE ‘OKIES’ 5)

Pickers Indicate compro- Pp. mise May Be Presented In California Dispute.

MADERA, Cal, Oct. 25 (U. P.).— The possibility ef peace in the cot-

ton fields of the San Joaquin Valdey appeared closer today. Leaders of striking pickers indicated a compromise would be offered the farmers immediately. There also were indications, however, that Kern County, origin of the strike called two weeks ago, but where picking continued on a majority of ranches, might be the scene of new outbreaks. Twelve of 25 state highway patrolmen sent here last week by Governor Culbert L. Olson, departed suddenly late last night for Bakersfield. They were followed by Col. Charles Henderson of the California National Guard, who was sent by the Governor to investigate charges that local law enforcement was not adequate.

C. I. O. Leader May Offer Plan ~The compromise offer was expected to be made officially by Luke Hinman of Bakersfield, state director of field workers for the United Cannery, Agricultural, Packing and Allied Workers of America, a C.I.0. union. Mr. Hinman, accompanied by Herbert Reisner, C. I. O. attorney, said workers would be supplied farmers who would pay $1 per hundred pounds picked. The strike was called when growers refused to meet a demand for $1.25. The current scale is 80 to 90 cents a hundred pounds. Mr. Reisner plans to begin habeas corpus proceedings to free 21 strike leaders held in the county jail on charges they conspired to violate the anti-picketing ordinance. A second ordinance prohibiting motor caravans already is under attack in Federal Court at Fresno, where 143 pickets were arrested 10 days ago for violating it.

‘Okies’ Sit on Heels

Meanwhile the thousands of “Okies,” dust-bowl refugees from Oklahoma, - Missouri, Arkansas and Texas, and other thousands of Mexicans from Southern California, sit on their heels while the sun dried out fields dampened by yesterday's rain. Many of these are types portrayed by characters in John Steinbeck’s controversial novel, “The Grapes of Wrath.” Typical of the pickers who are out on strike was Luther (Luke) Spires, 46, of Oklahoma, who has a wife and three children of school age. He might have stepped right out of Mr.- Steinbeck’s book. “I came “from Oklahoma a few months ago to make some money, then I figured on going back,” said Mr. Spires. “I thought we might get more money, but I see now I was wrong, and I intend to keep right on working.” Wants $1.25 or She Won't Pick There was Mrs. Lockhart; a widow of about 35, who "had lost all her teeth. She had two ragged children. “Picking cotton’s hard work and doesn’t last long,” she said. ‘The kids must eat, and I'm getting $1.25 or I'm not picking.” Jeff Lincoln, 51, a native Californian, is part owner and foreman of a 640-acre ranch near Merced, of which 278 acres is in cotton. He employes about 35 pickers, mostly Mexicans. “Every picker I had would have kept on working if they hadn’t been scared out,” he said. “I have had no complaints at the 80-cent rate. The average picker on my ranch, including women and children, picks 250 pounds a day. The men run to 300 and 400 pounds. The Mexicans were the last to be scared out, and some of them I have had every season since 1930.” “We had our first real night's sleep in 10 days Monday night,” Mrs. Lincoln interjected.
