Mr.. Norviel in his statement de-

Mr.. Norviers statement is the
first step in what, 1t is believed, will
develop into a campaign on the
part of sponsors of the measure
to secure its ratification by the
Arizona state legislature at its BIZ
ennial session next January.
The opposition forces under the
leadership Of George II. Maxwell,

Snow Hall at the University Of
Kansas.
The work OF the Water and Sew
er Laboratory at the university is
said to rank among that OF the
eight best laboratories in the en-.
tire country. The great decrease
in percentage OF deaths is due in a
great degree to the work OF the
Kansas laboratory in ferreting out
the causes and checking them.

MAY Be WAR IN
Z YEARS, BORAH
SAYS IN SPEECH
Idaho Senator FavorS Rec
ognition of Russia as a
Means of Averting An
other European Conflict

Boston, Dec. 2.--Within two
years, owing to the Near East sit
uation, there may be another great
war, Senator William Il. Borah Of
Idaho said in an address here to-
night.
His. subject was "The Recogni-
ton of Russia" and he advocated
that step by the Unlred States as
a means of averting another Euro
pean conflict.
At the close of the senator's ad~
dress the police guard at the hall
was called on to prevent riot
when a questioner, who said his
name was Macdonald, and that
he was world war veteran,
mounted the stage. Amid shouts
'of Put him out" Senator Borah
insisted that the questioner be
heard.
"why is there no American flag
displayed here?" Macdonald ask
ed.
Turmoil broke out afresh and
many rushed for the stage to eject
the stranger. Police intervened to
protect him and the incident
closed.
Senator Borah said, when peace
was restored that wherever he ap-
peared to speak there were Amer
lean principles If not flags
Calling for unqualified recogni-
ton of the present government of
Russia, he told the crowd that the
recognition OF a government did
not necessary carry approval OF
that countrys institutions.
Just as we eliminate suspicion
and fear of other nations we shall
return to conditions of peace"
Senator Borah said. Every con-
ference in Europe since the end
Of the world war has revolved
about the Russian question. With
in two years the Near East situa-
tion is likely TO bring about an
other war, It is up to the people
of the United States whose boys
would be called on TO fight in this
war, to protest against the pres
ent policies at Washington in fail
ing to try to avert such a catas-
trophe.
Two resolutions were adopted
almost unanimously by the audi
ence. One proposed by Professor
Charles Skinner of Tufts college,
called upon the president and Sec
retary Of state to provide for the
restoration of trade relations with
Russia. The other, presented by
John Cadman of Boston urged
congress to recognize the Russian
soviet government.

MANY HEAD Of
STOCK GRAZED
ON GOVT. LAND
Manzano National Forest
Provides Pasture for
66,249 Cattle, Horses,
Swine, Goats and Sheep

There are 66,249 head of live
stock being grazed on the pastures
of the Manzano national forest.
This is the figure given in the Of
flcial report submitted to the dis
trict forester yesterday. The Man
zano forest pastures are probably
the richest in this section. The
stock pastured there consist prin-
cipally OF cattle, sheep and goats,
with few horses and swine.
The report shows that 10,113
cattle and horses are grazing un-
der permits granted to 151 per
mittees. This is an average of 151
head to each permittee.
Aside from those grazing under
permits there are 2,312 cattle and
horses and Is swine given grazing
free of charge. This stock belongs
10 437 settlers and farmers. The
forest service, with the purpose OF
helping the small stock holder, tbs
farmer and settler, permits them
to Craze free of charge, not more
than ten head of stock. This stock
must be in actual use for domestic
purposes
In addition to the cattle and
horses grazing under permlts tnefe
were grazed under permit 51.45t
sheep and goats by a total OF 90
permittees, according to the Of
flcial report. This is an aver
age of 971 head for each permittee,
Under the free provision of the
forest service there are S52 milk
goats grazed by SO ranchers. The
discrepancy in the limit figure is
due to the fact that in this case
80 head Of goats, with a pony or
two, are considered equivalent, in
grazing to 10 head of cattle or
horses.
On the Fort Wingate division of
the Manzano national forest there
are 1900 head of sheep and goats
grazed by Indians without charge.
This free grazing is operated un-
der a cooperative arrangement
between the forest and Indian SER
vices. The 1900 sheep and goats
are owned by 25 Indians, an av-
erage of 60 head to each Indian
stockman.
