SNOW DISAPPEARS FROM RANGES AND
 THEN MORE COMES

Reports of stock and range condi- tions to the weather bureau indicate the rapid disappearance of snow from the ranges followed Monday by moderate storm that materially in- creased the depth in the north centra, counties. Before the last storm six inches covered the ground at Grand Canyon while only one and a half inches were reported at Williams. Monday evening eight inches were re- ported at Flagstaff. As feed is abun dant in most sections stock of all kinds continue in good condition. There being an abundance of water animals are enabled to graze far from old established water holes thus taking advantage of the best forage. Moder- ate daytime temperatures contributed materially to the comfort of stock. Reports from desert sections indicate a marked improvement in pasture as a result of recent rains.
 Cotton picking has made excellent progress in the various cotton grow ing sections of the state. The Yuma section has been favored by almost continuously fair weather and weather conditions having become settled in the Salt River valley picking has again become active in that section. Deliveries at gins are about normal in quantity and are being taken care of as delivered. Generally fair weather in the citrus sections has fla vored orange harvest and an improved condition of the roads has encouraged deliveries which have again become normal. Shipments by rail during the week have been up to the average.

INDUSTRIAL PEACE AT SANTA BARBARA
 WITH 'OPEN SHOP'

In the recent "open shop contro- versy which occupied the center of the industrial stage at Santa Barbara, California, settlement was reached, without apparent reluctance on the part of the Building Trades Council of that city, and a continuation of the "open shop" policy is now in effect in that city Editorial comment from the Santa Barbara Daily News reached this city yesterday. The News taking the attitude that the settlement was re- markedly wise.
 Yesterday afternoon" says The News. "at a meeting held at the rooms of the Building Trades Council, at which were present representatives of the council, representatives of the employers and the citizens commit tee. which in all these negotiations has been acting as the intermediary and as the representative of the public, an agreement was reached which brings industrial peace to Santa Barbara.
 "The agreement provides that the Building Trades Council shall with draw it's letter demanding the closed shop and that the Employers associa- ton shall withdraw it's reply thereto and that relations between employers and employees shall go back to the con- dition which existed before August l5, when union men and non union men worked in the building trades in our city.
 Tn coming to this agreement, credit should be given to both sides for their willingness to consider both sides of the question. Tn particular, credit should be given to representatives of the Building Trades Council. They desired to secure a position in which only union men should be employed in the industry They believed that they should not abuse this power, but they recognized. not only in the argu- ments put before them by the citizens committee, but in the action of various bodies like the Chamber of Commerce the Rotary club and other organrza> tions that public opinion in Santa Barbara did not approve the estab- lishment of situation under which a small group of men would have the decision as to who could and who could not work in the building trades in Santa Barbara.
 Under these conditions. the Build ing Trades Council withdrew it's de- mand, and the members of the coun- cil should receive full credit for acting in a patriotic and public-spirited manner
 "The experience through which we have just gone suggests the great use- fulness of permanent body like the citizens committee, to be chosen ir some approved manner, and which should be ready, whenever occasion arose, to take up the consideration ot >any question from the standpoint oi the public interest, and the public in- cludes all the other interests, includ.
