FEDERAL LOANS
ON FARM UNITS
ARE To Be MADE
Amendment Adopted By
Senate Makes These Val
ley Lands Eligible Under
Federal Farm Loan Act

Owners of lands classified as
farm units" in the Salt River valley
will be enabled TO secure loans
under the federal farm loan act as
the result of the adoption by the
u. S. senate early this week Of an
amendment which makes farm
units" eligible. A bill for this pur-
pose was offered by Senator Borah.
from Idaho, some time ago and has
been warmly supported by Senator
Ashurst and Congressman Hayden,
OF Arizona.
There are approximately 800 per-
own farm units" comprising some
10000 acres, of which the federal
land bank at Berkeley refused to
make loans because the patent
issued by the government recited
that there was a lien for construc-
tion charges on it, according to
Henry L. Eads, secretary of the Salt
River Valley National Farm asso-
citation.
The amendment reads 'the term
first mortgage shall be construed
to include mortgages on lands under
the u. S. reclamation projects not
withstanding there may be against
such lands a reserved or created
men III IdNOT Oh JBS gullS0 goldSCS
for construction or other charges.
Farm Association
The Salt River Valley National
Farm Loan association was organ
lied a year ago to make loans in
the Salt River valley. AS the Fed
eral land bank at Berkeley refused
to make loans on land situated
under the reclamation act as lands
in this project were the farm loan
association proceeded to make appli-
cations for loans and filed them
with the bank.
The local farm loan association
received 252 applications for loans,
aggregating $l,487 500 during the
past year. The office has closed 81
loans paid to the farmers $500. 200.
They now have in the bank about
80 applications, amounting to half a
million dollars, unacted on.
Under the new amendment the
many farm unit" owners are now
able to make application to the
secretary treasurer of the Salt River
Valley National Farm Loan asso-
citation, as there will be about
$500, 900 set aside by the land bank
to supply land unit owners who
have not been able to make appli-
cations before.

Endorse Action of
The Republican

within a week past. Phoenix has
had the spectacle of a convicted
bootlegger refusing 10 divulge the
names of his patrons. whom he de-
clared to be among the best people
of the city.
I'VE emphatically dissent from this
estimate. People who deliberately
break the law cannot be called good.
Their practices are dangerously sub
versive of good government and
should be denounced by all loyal citi-
Zens.
1--WE therefore record our high ap-
probation of the Arizona Republican
in serving notice upon lawbreakers
that their actions will be given full
publicity, regardless of their position
in business or society"

closed the fact that the granite ex-
tended int. the river only short
distance and then broke off vertical
" to an unknown depth, affording no
rock foundation upon which to rest
the structure The design Is known
as the India Weir. Untechnically it
may be described as a huge mass OF
concrete resting or floating on the
sands Of the river bed, securely but
tressed into the walls OF rock on
sand on each end and firmly held by
its own weight against the upthrust
OF water flowing slowly in the sands

from 2 to feet in thickness. On II
rests a hollow weir or dam 10 feet
in height and of the same length as
the slab. Spillway capacity was in
creased by extending the crest of the
dam into tn, rock forming the north
bank a distance of 120 feet. The to-
tai freeway for the passage of wa

The intake works consist of a bank

gates which divert water in the Casa
Grande canal 40 feet wide on the bot
tom and with q capacity of 1000
cubic feet per second. These gates
are lifted and lowered by hydraulic
power. Water for the small canal on
the north bank is carried through the
dam in a 42 inch cement pipe which is
supplied on the south side with four
type. The total cost OF the dam Is
4 foot by foot gates of the rising
approximately $250,0e0 and the esti-
mated acreage to be irrigated is about
81, 900 acres, Of which $4,000 acres are
in Indian ownership and $4,000 acres
are the property of white owners.
Construction Problems
Owing to the peculiar type of the
structure and the erratic character
Of the river. the work of construction
was most strenuous. 1t was race
with nature because il was absolutely
necessary to complete the dam dur
ing the period between the two rainy
seasons, the first occurring from Mo-
vember to March, when the river is
in continuous flow and the second a
period usually OF violent floods ex-
tending from July to September.

HAZE BURCH'S HAT
TOSSED INTO RING

Announcement was made yesterday
OF the candidacy of Haze Burch for
the Republican nomination for sheriff
of this county. It will not be re-
ceived with surprise, for Mr.. Burch
has been considered as a strong can
didate for the last two years. and
even before that he was looked upon
favorably by Republicans in the event
that Sheriff Montgomery should not
then have been a candidate for re-
election.
Mr.. Burch has served efficiently as
constable for East Phoenix precinct
for three terms and has gained rep
utation as one of the most efficient
peace officers in Arizona He has
been particularly active in the CAM
paign against bootleggers, and espe-
cially SO during the period when the
enforcement of prohibition depended
largely upon the activity of local
officers.
He has also followed a practice
which has saved the county a good
deal of money and certain citizens q
lot of money and more trouble. Wher
he has heard of the inception of
trouble, that is, of disputes that were
likely to ripen into trivial and more
or less expensive civil suits within
his bailiwick, he has gone to the par
ties and urged them to settle their
differences before it was too late.
During his incumbency he has OBJ
served no office hours, but has been
on duty at all hours of day or night
whenever it appeared that there
might be need of his official services.
