Wool Growers Seek Aid and Manpower Solutions
Delegates of the National Wool Growers Association in Salt Lake City urge drastic action to solve labor shortages, proposing suspension of the 40 hour week, cutting civil service by one third, and more labor saving machinery. They favor government buys at ceiling prices of 1933 wool clips for two years postwar, while private enterprise remains to handle wool. The resolutions, adopted at the seventy eighth annual meeting, mirror actions from national and state conventions.

Weather and storm effects shift forage and cattle grazing in the Ashley National Forest. Lower ranges faced dryness by late summer, delaying grazing and reducing feed. Higher ranges gained conditions from recent storms, promising improved feed in spring. Rain and snow accumulations at Green Lakes and Moon Lake contributed to high-elevation moisture. Continued reports note partial recovery and outlook for ranges.

New standards count dairy cattle, feed, beets, and wheat products as essential, lowering required work units from sixteen to eight.
