The constitution requires the senate

that If the landtag succeeds in estab-

padded" He wanted to know why it
was that the National guard from New

raised by conscription is to be train
ed at a camp in central Massachu-
sets.
"If the Massachusetts, camp is good
enough to drill one set of troops in

The increase in the acreage Of farm
crops in New Mexico has caused a

the state. In order to aid in meeting
This shortage a state labor bureau has
been established and is already doing
good work. The plan of its work is
simple but effective. The bureau is

farm labor specialist with his office
at State College, N. M. The plan pro-
vides for a state organization, y rep
resentative for each county AMI. a
local representative for each COM
munity in every county. The local
representatives gather and list the
data Of the needs of the farmers in
their community and also the avail
able labor in their community. They
make local adjustments based upon
this information and report the deficit
or the surplus of labor to the county
He with the reports from all
the communities of his county at
hand adjusts the needs of his com
munities and reports the deficit or
surplus to the office of the state farm
labor specialist who adjusts the needs
of the county and the state.
1t is the duty of every farmer in
the state to notify his community man
at the earliest possible moment how
much help he will need and when he
will need 1t. It is likewise the duty
of those willing to do farm work as
we'll as those who are now doing that
work to notify their community men.
This bureau will do the state a great
amount of good if the people it wants
to help it aid them by giving their
entire support and cooperation.

decided are the exact place in Wash

place and the date.
1t was suggested today that a com
mittee room at the capitol be used.
There are many questions such as
wire facilities, which must be consid-
cred and it is probable that General
Crowder and the Washington cerre-
spondents will work out an agree
ment on this point.
The government will be ready for
the drawing as soon Is the last state
has reported by telegraph that its
work is complete. If the last tele-
gram comes in the morning the draw
ing can be held the same day. If it
at night, it is probable the
drawing will take place the following
day.

her arrest only until more suitable
quarters could be found.

witnesses in rebuttal, final arguments
were to begin, possibly this after
