Idaho Sugar Surplus Seen as Possible in 1938
Idaho officials report 1938 sugar quotas may exceed domestic consumption by about 1,000,000 tons after a Washington conference on the 1937 sugar act. Growers in the Snake River valley plan to petition Secretary Wallace to cut quotas now in effect. Pocatello notes a city club proposal to meet on the day before each Friday the 13th for guidance. In Moscow, Joe Matich is sentenced to prison for copper wire theft, with two Indian accomplices paroled, and a judge criticizes white involvement in such crimes.
