  1. Pyle Cannery Will Change Ownership: February 9, 1922 San Jose Evening News. "While we have not yet signed papers with Mr. Barron and Mr. Gray," said Harry Pyle today, "we have just come to terms. We are selling just our plant - nothing else. Our labels, trade, etc. we retain... we are getting out at present because we are tired of being squeezed... When it comes to hiring labor and making improvements we have the American plan on one side and the labor unions on the other. Then when it comes to buying and selling our fruit we have the fruit associations, who as a steep price for their fruit, on one side and the fruit jobbers on the other and we are between the upper and lower mill stones and are squeezed. So we don't want any more of the game for the present."
