A GLOOMY VIEW
Of THE FUTURE
Report of Cattle Sanitary
Board of States is Pessi-
miStic in Tone, Few Bright
Spots Seen.
(BY STAFF CORRESPONDENTS

(BY STAFF CORRESPONDENTS
Santa Fe. Dec. 21.-Under pres
ent conditions the future of the
cattle business in New Mexico is
not good, declare the members of
the cattle sanitary board in the
thirty-third annual report of that
body to the governor of the state.
Market conditions are considered
very unfavorable and heavy finan-
cial losses have been encountered.
In comparison with 1919 the de-
probation in the value of cattle has
been from Is to 80 per cent.
There are few optimistic notes
in the report which was filed yes
terday. The calf crop oyer the
state has been good, the average
increase being about so per cent.
The board also notes that the quail
ity of New Mexico cattle is being
constantly improved.
During the past year the ship
ments of cattle amounted to 405,-
800 head, a figure somewhat larger
than the year before and about
average If a longer period of years
Is taken. Il ne SulpllIeHI VI IiueS,
which was abnormally high year
ago, dropped back to normal again
last year. Horse shipments are
also normal. although better
grade of horse is being shipped.
Tax collections during the fiscal
year ending November 80, 1918,
totaled s74.302. During the fiscal
year ending November 80. 1919,
the collections were only $44,S71,
The total receipts in 1918 were
$111,S69.63 while the expenses
were $S1,S59.71. In 1919, the re-
ceipts were $S1.942.S7 whiles the
disbursements amounted to $S4,-
741.21. The board still has sub
stantial balance in banks,
At the present time the board
has forty inspectors. OF these
seven are market inspectors, six
teen brand inspectors, eight mount
ed, four line and five health in
spectors.

KANSAS To HAVE
MORE STRINGENT
EDUCATION LAW
CBy The Associated Press,

Topeka, Kans.. Dec. 21.-Gover-
nor Aliens children's code COM
mission proposes to make the state
compulsory education law more
stringent. This would be accom-
plished by raising the age mini
mum for child labor from IA to Is
years, by establishing part time
school for children between Is and
Is years who are excused under
the poverty" clause of the present
law. and by providing for special
training of sub-normal children.
Under the present law Is years
Is indirectly set up as the standard
for compulsory education by re-
quiring that eight grades be COM
pleted before the child begins
work.
In practice, however. the stand
ard has practically dropped to IA
years, according to Miss Alice Nc
Farland. state factory inspector
and chairman of the child labor
committee of the code commission,
In many cases, she says, children
upon becoming IA get excused be-
cause of some alleged physical or
mental defect. obtain an employ
ment certificate and go to work.
Under the proposed legislation
no child under 10 years of age
would be excused unless unques-
tionably and hopelessly unfit. For
hose who are merely sub-normal,
adequate provision would be made
o train. them either in state insti-
! utions or in special classes in the
ity schools. Such classes. now or
yanized in some of the larger Kan
as cities, are only optional now.
Truancy and lack of enforce
nent of the present compulsory
education law is the result of sew
aral factors. according to Miss Nc
Farland. Many truancy Officers
work only part time and can not
properly look after the entire coun-
~, some courts are not rendering
decisions unfolding enforcement of
the law or fail to follow up their
orders to see that the child actually
returns to school, the child labor
law itself Is weak and encourages
youths to quit school and go into
employment; most schools do not
have facilities to train the active
'moter type and the special care
child; and some parochial schools,
being largely free from the juris-
diction of city officials, have not
co-operated in enforcing the bill. B."

COOPERATION IS
NEED Of WORLD,
EXPERT ASSERTS
Team Work Between En-
ployerS and Employees
With a View to Reducing
Extravaganza.
(By The Associated Press.)

London, Dec 21.--Sir Charles
NIAGARA, former president Of the
International Cotton Federation
and of the English Federation of
Master Cotton Spinnners, associa-
ton. is of the opinion that the
world is faced with disaster un-
less means be devised throughout
the world to bring about more
wholehearted cooperation between
employers and workers, with a
view to reducing governmental and
national extravaganza and bring
down the cost of production by
united effort"
At present, Sir Charles sees no
prospect of real reduction in the
cost of living and he thinks that
the United Kingdom is today in as
critical a position as at the out
break of the war; largely due, he
says, to the curtailment of credit
by banks, at the bidding of the gov
eminent.
No Immediate Price Slump.
People are encouraged to be-
lieve that slump in prices is due
Immediately, said Sir Charles, to the
correspondent, but an artificially-
created slump would be nothing
| less than a disaster. Low prices are
ar illusion so long as the world
lacks goods and the cost of pro-
duction remains on the present
scale.
Making the so-called war prof
liteer disgorge may be popular
cry, but it must not be overlooked
that the government which has
adopted the excess profits duty is
| the real profiteers, and in slump
may be called upon to refund much
of what 1t has collected.
"Then again, wages are very
high, working hours considerably
shorter; running expenses heavier
than ever before, and tie cost Of
machinery 400 per cent above PR
war prices"
Excess Profits Duty.
The excess profits duty, Sic
Charles pointed out. had as con r
sequence largely failed In its pur-
pose. he continued:
IF there is no change of policy,
in regard to the cotton industry, we
shall have again what happened In
1875: the growers tdrning to rops
that will pay, with consequent
sTeat advance in the price of cot
ton, which in that year fell to fou'
pence per pound and in course OF
time rose as high as as pence, in
CT easing the price of The cotton
crop of the world by 1,000,000,00O
pounds"
Sir Charles regretted the failure
of the governments to enlist the
services of the experts of the In
tCrnational Cotton Federation and
the International Institute Of Ag-
riculture.
"All nations are interdependent,"
he said, "and the worlds mos.
Urgent work, the provision of food
ard clothing, canrot proceed en-
cept by international cooperation,
and 1t were well If the United
States would take the initiative
with this object in view The pres
ent crisis cannot be solved by the
oratory of professional politicians
at Geneva, but by gradual reduc-
ton in national expenditures and
by cheapening the cost Of produce
ton. II the league of nations had
commenced by making use of the
machinery of the organizations re-
ferred to whose very existence
proves the practicability of the
nations working in friendly CO
operation, much precious time
would have been saved. The sit
uation is one of extreme urgency.

POULTRY AUCTION SALE
NEW FEATURE FOR FAIR

In line with its record Of being the
pioneer in the Inauguration of new ex-
hibition features, the Louisiana State
Fair Association has decided to in
clude in the program Of the State Fair
poultry department, October % to No
vember Z, series of poultry auction
sales.
It has not been decided exactly how
many of the sales there will be, but
they will be conducted on at least two
days, and possibly three or four days,
according to the number of chickens
and other birds listed for the sales.
Owing to the increasing interest mani
tested in the poultry industry In this
section of the country, numerous
fanciers are confidently expected to be
present to bid for the offerings.
Auction sales have each year been
features of the cattle and swine depart
ments, and they have proved such dis
tinct successes, that the management
feels that similar sales in the poultry
department will prove popular. 1t Is
Fair on record to include such fea-
ture in its poultry program.
The poultry department, in which
the competition will be open to the
world, will be in charge of Harley L.
Williams, of Baton Rouge, as superin-
tendent Mr.. Williams is the leader
In poultry husbandry for the State of
Louisiana. The judges in this depart
ment have been selected as follows:
Poultry, G. P. Van Wrinkle Of Dallas,
Texas; pigeons, A. T. Modlin of To
peka. Kan; and pet stock, c. S. Glib
son of Detroit.
1t is believed that the poultry dis
play this year will be the largest ever
seen at the State Fair, including large
collections of pigeons and pet stock.
General cash premiums total around
$4,000, and, in addition, a large num-
Der of special prizes have been award
ed by merchants and others who real
ize the value of poultry raising and
wish to stimulate greater interest in it.
Besides the general exhibits, repre-
senting many of the leading farms of
the United States, the boys and girls
clubs Of Louisiana will have many
specimens on display.

Goodrich Tires today are sold by good dealers

what is more to the point in this comparison,
Goodrich Tires in 1920 give on the average nearly
double the number of miles per tire. .
The Goodrich adjustment basis of 5000 miles
for Silyertowns and 5000 miles for Fabrics at
todays prices give motorists twice the mileage at
less cost per tire.
