Opinion from a California cotton area notes a new pest control idea releasing sterile male moths to mate with wild females. If successful, it could reduce bollworm fertility and shrink population growth in the San Joaquin Valley fields.

The Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America pulled back pickets at Farah Manufacturing plants in San Antonio and Victoria after a strike involving 21 percent of workers. Farah employees earned above the local and national wage average with favorable benefits, while the union could not win a vote. The company had sought a National Labor Relations Board election, opposed by the union, to determine worker support.
The article argues union pressure failed against Farah, noting fringe benefits like a free medical clinic, drugs, pension plans, health and life insurance, and subsidized meals. It claims 41 Farah plants stayed open, cites 8,000 Texas and New Mexico workers not unionized, and criticizes boycott tactics as ineffective against a non-union workforce. It urges public opinion to support Farah to protect South Texas business.
