 about foreign competition, Congress-

 I T wish that I had had those fig

 Publicity" Peabody. of Chandler,
 who really wasn't on the program but
 who represented Dr. A. J. Chandler,
 gave a stirring talk in which he said
 1t was all very well to bring people to
 Arizona and tell them of the bright
 sunshine and the wealth of the soil
 and then sell them a piece of land.
 But we shouldn't leave them to work
 out their own destinies. We should get
 behind them and assist them to bring
 out the full resource of their land and
 to assist them in increasing it's value.
 There is no reason why any good piece l Of land should not increase one hun 1 dred per cent in value in a short time with the proper development and utili- zation.'

And the very best dairy country in the world,' he said in closing, is right here in the Salt River Valley. and the more concerns we have like the Pa cific Creamery, the better"
