ARBITRATION FOR NORTH SIDE
Land Board to Meet Representatives
of B0ndhOlderS and Settlers.

On Wednesday of this week the
members of the state land board will
be in Jerome where they will meet
the representatives of tn bondholdrs
of the North Side project and settlers,
with view of arriving at some sort
of settlement regarding the difficult
ties between them.
1t is said that there is considerable
hard feeling over the report of the
Irrigation and Drainage commission
in regard to the North Side project.
In the report made by the commits
sion several matters of Importance
were recommended, one was that the
company enlarge it's canal system,
and that if sufficient water could not
be secured the company cut down the
project by eliminating the Clover
creek segregation, and the high and
low line pumping plants in the second
segregation.

"AMER|CA FIRST"
Keynote Of The Aims and Purposes of The
United States Chamber of Commerce.
Edwin f. Irefz Field Secretary Of National Organization
Delivers Inspiring Address.

America First with the purpose of
making this nation the foremost COM
mercial power In the world and also
making 1t nation of loyal, solid AM
orleans with no hyphens to disturb.
This is the essence of the purpose Of
the United States Chamber of Com
merce as outlined last Friday by Field
Secretary Trefz of that organization
One of the largest audiences of busi-
ness men ever gathered in the local
club rooms greeted Mr.. Trefz Friday
when introduced by Attorney c. l..
DeLong, Vice President of the Com
mercial club.
Mr.. Trefz is fluent speaker with
an ease of manner and personality
that makes him many friends In his
audience In his preliminary re-
marks the distinguished visitor paid
a hearty tribute to the energy of the
people who have populated this tract
speaking of two former visits to this
section, one In 1903 and the other in
1903. The growth In the interim both
pleased and surprised him. Mr. Trefz
purpose is to interest the various Com
mercial bodies insthe national order
with the idea Of protecting and ex-
tending the influence Of the business
men of America.
n Starting from little groupsof Com
mercial bodies in the east of seven
or. eight hundred cities ] the national
oFganzation now has oyer twenty-sev-
EN- hundred units with a membership
of over half million. When the war
first commenced the speaker stated
that only six American ships we're
plying the Atlantic ocean. The COM
merce OF the country with the rest OF
the world dropped out OF sight in two
short months, because, the bulk of the
trade vessels were flying foreign
flags and were afraid TO venture on an
ocean full of commerce raiders

Aroused by the situation the members
OIL the United Chambers of Commerce.
through Influential members took up
the matter with Congress, advising
that body Of plan for taking for
elgh snlps under American registry.
An emergency measure was passed
ana IN two months nearly three thou
sand vessels were flying the American
nag ana the commercial stringency
renewed. This was only one of the
various phases which this body took
up to benefit the business men OF AM
erica
Mr.. Trefz then gave some of the
problems which must be worked out
ana IN reviewing the situation stated
that OF the vast bulk of national laws
passed In the past few years over
eighty per cent were aimed at res
friction Of the business interests. To
cap the climax, most of this legisla-
fion is enacted by men utterly un-
acquainted with the needs and prob
lens of the business world. To Off
set this and establish the right eouil-
lbrlum is the problem OF the orga,tlz-
alton.
In few words the speaker gave
vital objection to tariff tinkerings and
government ownership of utilities un-
til some sane non-political plan could
be devised
In a ringing speech; Mr. Trez, who
is OF German blood, scored the hy-
phenated Americans and showed his
contempt for any man who was not
for America first His audience to
man applauded his utterance.
At the conclusion of his address MIR.
DeLong called upon Senator Swe-ley
and Mr.. c. L. Longley for their views
upon the question of joining the Ma
tional body. Both spoke In favor of
such action, The board OF directors
met Immediately after to consider the
matter.

The ASSOCIATED CHARITIES
Some Results Accomplished by the
Twin Falls People.

Since September this organization
mas supplied shoes, rubbers, clothing
etc, to SIS children, some of whom
nave been furnished entire outfits, in
Guiding underwear and hose. 90 fam
lies and two single men have been
helped. Families have been found
without single piece of furniture or
even decent mattress on which to
sleep, much less with quilts to cover
them. Furniture, mattresses, cook
stoves, comforts, blankets, lamps and
even rocking chair for sick woman
have been furnished Groceries for
six families and coal for ten have
been supplied. The county physician
has been summoned, medicines bought

ofhcers and visitors. Employment has
been found for three or four, girl
drifting into bad company rescued,
another of pernicious influence in
part restrained, big brother friend

completely furnished subject to call;
the Parent-Teachers' association has
been asked to cooperate in regard to
needy children; one family has been
ordered to clean up the home and
children and numerous other acts of
social uplift; the City Council has
been appealed to for an ordinance to
restrain indiscriminate and unworthy
soliciting in the city, and other lines
OF work connected with such an under
taking too numerous to mention. have
engaged the attention of the officers
Prof Blue, of the Board OF Direc-
tors, has collected over 800; the
Twentieth Century club has contri-
buted $40 and the offering from the
mon Thanksgiving service at the
Presbyterian church amounted to SIG.
The society has paid outstanding
debts from last year of 500, and has
almost nothing left after paying pres
ent demands
Ihere is an unusual amount of need
and suffering in the city and the char
ltably inclined must keep open heart.
More money is needed and a check
sent to Prof. Blue or the treasurer,
W. J. Young, as Christmas pres
ent will not lose it's reward Cloth
ing, especially children's clothing, if
good is in constant and increasing
demand. Some plan which will pre-
vent duplication in giving at Christ
mas time, resulting in surplus in
some cases and nothing at Others,
must be devised. Cooperation with
the officers of the society. is urged in
planning as the society can give need
ed information and advice.
The society consists of president,
Mrs. Kennedy Packard the treasurer
secretary and four members of a
board of directors and ten visitors.
First aim is to furnish immediate aid
to those in distress, then to investi-
gate and If possible remedy causes
and prevent imposition The society
should be a clearing house for all
charity in the city and as such. re-
quests thorough investigation. of it's
methods and work, that it may have
the complete confidence and coop

PRAISED FOR LOYALTY
Ray MacGillivray, Of this City, Does
Generous Work ut College.


AS mark of unselfish devotion to
his Alma Mater, Ray MacGillivray
graduate of the Twin Falls high
College, was given special mention in
the Wooster newspaper, The Voice
which mentions his promotion to
take charge of the training depart
ment with the official title of chief
trainer. The following excerpt from
that paper shows to degree the
value of the Twin Falls youth to his
college: Ray is the son of Rev. and
Mrs j. X. MacGillivray of this city.
Several important factors in caring
for and building up the men who bat
tile for Wooster, are the trainers and
the training table.
Both became reality this season
largely due to the efforts Of Coach
Boles. 1t is assured that next year we
shall have another training table.
"As to the trainers; it is the worthy
plan of the coach to make MacGilli-
vray chief trainer of the team next
year This year Mac" has given con-
stant and unselfish attention to the
men who needed rubbing down." etc.
without expecting anything and doing
it for the glory of the college Those
who have done little or nothing to
uphold the glory of the college should
take off their. hats to the men who
give their time and labor unselfishly
knowing that they will get no recogni-
tion for their. service" Wooster
Voice, Dec. End, 1915.
Wooster this year stands third in
a conference of - colleges in Ohio !;
for a few years this college has been
near the bottom.
