Cur Greetings c9n tIlr Mrartit,s nf Ulrristnras

IN THE true spirit of the occasion and with due appreciation of all it implies, extend Christmas greetings to the readers of this publi- cation Christmas has meaning possessed by no other holiday throughout the world America has it's national and special days, other countries have theirs; Christmas IS the only one alike in spirit and celebrated in all Christian lands So pure is it's principle that it commands respect and admiration among people who worship their Creator in different ways from ours.
 Christmas typifes all that is best in man. kind. It is the elimination of the human mind throughout the ages dwelling upon the wonders and mysteries of existence, turning to a rever- ence for. God and His representative on earth It expresses the ascendency of spirit, the reali- zation of men of their interdependency and their duty to one another; and so it is marked by the bestowal of gifts and other sentiments of benevo- lence and well wishing.
 The makers of newspapers concerned as they are with the doings manifestations and thoughts of their respective communities and the world at large, and recording them in their more important aspects for the information, n,ayhap the education of readers, are brought into an intimate sense. of the spirit and meaning of Christmas. Would that we could express to you alf the good that we see in the hearts of men and the increased brilliancy behind few shadows of the light which has upheld the world for so many centuries. In the happy auguries we see for the future, there is every reason to be merry.
 Our Yuletide thoughts go out to the people of this community and our thanks are due the patrons and kind friends who have given us Dractipal SlIrlnOrt m. eytenffed eucora yeTnent during the year. May this be the best Christ mas you have ever spent, is our wish to all

IMPORTANT RULING .F0RI CATTLE MEN

n. Announcements has been made by the Arizona Cattle Growers Associa- tion of further relief that will be granted in meritorious cases of those users of the National Forests who have been unable to pay their grazing fees on December 1st. the time limit heretofore set by congress sional legislation. To many of the icattlemen of Arizona who have grazed their stock on the National Forests it has been impossible. in view of their deplorable condition from drought and lack of market. to pay the fees which were first due last April, and through the efforts of the Cattlemen's Association the time of payment was postponed twice, finally to December 1st. The first of De ,cember found many of them with a greater inability to meet this obi gation, and the Association has been endeavoring either to have the time of paymant again postponed or to avoid the penalties regularly enacted by reason of non-payment.
 In telegraphic information just rs- ceived from Senator Ashurst. it is stated that Senator Ashurst, Repre- sentative 1Iayden, Governor Thomas -. >e&AAtPOoAA 1hAi- oe 4SAA -A1- Heard had an extended interview with the Secretary of Agriculture on this natter pointing out that many honest industrious cattlemen in Ari-
 zona, through no fault of their own. were not in position to pay these fees at this time and unless the fees were, extended, these men would be ruined .e
 Rather than enacting further legis- lation in this matter the Secretary of Agriculture has kindly issued in- | sructions to the various Forest Supervisors. dirhcting them to ae- cept promisory notes from those
 permittees on the Forests who have | been unable to pay the grazing fees.
 in all cases where the good faith of l the permittee was evident.
 | The Arizona Cattle Growers As
 sociation requests interested cattle
 men to make tender of their notes
 to he Forest Supervisors, and fail
 ing to secure proper recognition tc
 take the matter up with the Associa | tion's offices at Phoenix.

 Unskilled laborers could not dts mantle freight cars. This was the work of carmen. No employee could touch an engine grate except a boiler maker.
 Such rules and regulations have robbed the American people of nil lions of dollars as a result If v1r- time wage and working agreements

IMPORTANT CHANGE
 IN INC0 ME TAXES

Important changes in income tax procedure directed by Commissioner David H. Blair are embodied i'll Treasury Decision effective pecenn- ter 18th, which provides f"r the prompt adjustment of claims for refund and abatement of Federal taxes.
 Heretofore when an overassess- ment or overpayment was disclosed by the audit of an income tax re- turn. the taxpayers was invited to file claim for the abatement of the overassessment or the refund of the overpayment. When received the claim was registered and filed away until reached in due course for COZ sideration Because of the large number of such. claims filed. de'ay in adjustment necessarily resulted
 After December 18th taxpayers will not be advised of their privilege of filing a claim for the refund of taxes which have been paid in ex- cess of amounts. legally due, but ir- stead will receive a, certificate ~ of -overassessment and a check in cor rection of the error or if an assess ment is outstanding against the tax payer for income or excess profits tay,, the overpayment will be applied 1 as credit against the Assessment and the balance immediately re- funded S This, will be of distinct financial advantage to both the taxpayer and I the Government. It will do away with the necessity for the taxpayer {! filing claim for refund and will l greatly reduce the amount of work | to be done by the Bureau in the ad- 1 justment of claims. Taxpayres may | continue to file claims for abatement
 and refund, but it is expected that !, the number of such claims filed each
 month will be greatly reduced
 i Efforts are being made by the Bureau to adjust within six months | all claims now pending and there I after to keep the work current
 The Revenue Act of 1921 provides i! that under certain conditions in terest shall be paid upon claims iron
 the date of the payment of the ta2
 to the date of he allowance of he ! claim. The new procedure should greatly reduce the amount of interes which the Government must of neces /! sity pay upGE claims for refund
