Meetino the Anti Blacklist Law

We understand that of the larger ployers of labor in Arizona have decided not, for the present, least, to attack the validity of the blacklist that they intend defeat the purpose of it in another, and what strikes us, as such effective way that movement will prob ably be instituted for it's repeal It is their pur applications for employment. They will have employing agencies in California snd other where the applicants may be freely questioned re- garding their qualifications and antecedents, privilege denied Arizona employers under the anti black list law
 The law was. of course, designed primarily to the program said have been decided upon, if Arizona laboring wants to position with a large corporation he be the pense of going to California to point out side the state to apply for it. The operation of this program would naturally result in bringing in outside laborers who could easily make ap piication for Arizona jobs
 Ultimately it is said, these employers when they get ready will attack the nti-blacklst law. But they say that there is l, at present, why they should do so. It is more convenient for them give exhibition of unexpected effect of it.

Conservation in Florida

The Rivers and Harbors Congress is busy again at the opening of the short session meeting of the Congress Wednesday was addressed by Sen ator Fletcher of Florida who sarcastcay criticised those who opposing the waste of the public funds. The remarks of the senator were prelimin- ary defense of two projects in his state for the improvement of navigation the Oklawaha and Kissimee rivers of which few people outside of Florida have heard The senator denied that the Kissmee dry eight months in the year and that it ought to be insured against fire "The river never dry for minute" he declared.
 It would take only s47,O0O give the Kissmee depth of three feet the year round. No state ment made by the senator to how much was desired the Oklawaha project
 Quoting from the bureau of publicity of the Rivers and Harbors Congress-
 He characterized the attacks the project as gross and wholly inexcusable. He denied in highly dramatic the charges made against the Kissimee and Oklawaha projects. that they were being pushed in the interest of land specula- and reclamation and drainage schemes. He said that there more meritorious project, improvement needed anywhere in the country than the Oklawaha project. Show project which, worked out, will not increase land values, will increase productive acreage which will not add to creation and distribution, and will be able to point to project which should not have been undertaken all, a project where waste takes the place of conservation. Show pro ject the completion of which increase in land values. increase in productive acreage rich addition to creation and distribution and I will point a project it would be a shOrtsighted policy overlook, and almost criminal neglect to ignore
 We may assume that the proposed improvement of those Florida rivers will greatly increase the value lands along their and will increase the productive acreage; that the money devoted to these improvements would be wasted much of the rivers and harbors appropriations are; that the improvements not proposed in the in terest of land spectators reclamation and drain age schemes Still, long western farmers. those living in the so-caed arid region see no good why such improvements should be paid of the federal treasury while they them selves must pay for conservation which of land values, increase in productive acre age q rich addition creation and distribution.
