FIRST WESTERN SLOPE 8. 8.
CONVENTION NEXT WEEK

The first Sunday School convention
held ON the Western Slope will con-
vene at Grand Junction next Sun
day. Monday and Tuesday.
Heretofore these conventions have
been held on tht eastern slope, but
as an experiment this year two con-
ventions have been arranged. one at
Sterling and one at Grand Junction.
The same talent will appear at both.
1t costs about $1,000 to bring such
a convention to the Western slope,
and its continuance during future
years depends altogether upon the
support which It receives this year.
The fact that 1t costs such figure
gives some idea of the splendid talent
that has been engaged to carry out
the program. No time, effort or
money have been spared to make this
convention the fintst and most help.

doubtless be richly repaid.
Delta Sunday School workers are
interested in the success of this ven.
ture and are enthusiastic in their ef
forts to send a big delegation to the
Junction for these three days Of in
struction and training. Any who car
go should notify the superintendent
and arrangements will be made al
far as possible for transportation
Also, anyone who can take time t
go to the Junction with his car Sun

SIX ESSENTIALS IN co-oPERA-
TIVE SELLING GAME

Joseph Passoneau, state director OF
markets, in an address to the Water
Users association at Montr0se Mon
day afternoon, told the ranchers that
cooperative selling would mean more
money for the farmer. and said in
part:
cooperative marketing will lift
the mortgage on your farms; it will
give you better homes. more con-
veniences flor them, better schools
and better churches. 1t will raise
the whole social and economic stand
ard of the ommunity-because it is
going to bring more money into the
farmers pockets.
"In Denmark cooperative market
ing is more extensive than in any 9th
er country. And in Denmerk there
are fewer mortgages, less land ten
ancy per capita, than in any othei
country in the world"
Describing the movement for CO
operative association in Colorado
Passoneau listed six essentials oi
such an association.
First, you must have definite
minimum Of products" he said.
"Take apples, for instance. Say
there are 5000 to 1000 cars of ap
pies produced il Colorado. No as
sociation should attempt to run with
less than so per cent of these signed
up-1.5O0 to 1000 cars in this case
1.-THE reason is that the organiza
tion must control enough of the prod
uct to make it a definite factor in
the market.
Second, you must have a long
term contract, preferably not less
than five years. 1t must be absolute.
ly alright, and fortunately in Colo.
RADIO we have cooperative market
ing act under which you can write
those contracts and be SURE they will
stand in any court.
Third, your association should
handle like commodities that require
the same sort of commercial expert
ence to sell. For example, one hand.
ling wheat and peaches would be
likely to fail with one or the other.
But one handling peaches and apples
and cantaloupes, which go to the
same class of trade, would require
the same business experience to sell
one as the other.
Last, and perhaps the most i'm
portant, the association must do bus
mess with the highest type of eth.
ics," he said.

BATTLE Of WILLS
IN RUHR CENTERS
ABOUT TAXATION
Invaders Impose Tribute on
Wines Tobacco and
Cigarettes,


DUSSELDORF. March 1.-The
struggle of wills in the Ruhr conferred
today on the issue CT taxation.
Following announcement by the Ger
man government that all goods upon
which taxes had been paid to the
French and Belgians would be con-
fScated by the civil authorities. Gen
eral Degoutte announced the invaders
plan.
Collection of taxes on Ruhr prod
ucts is the new FrancO-Belgian scheme
for securing a portion of the repara-
tons payments they are missing
through occupation. General DegOutte
today decreed such collections effec-
tive on all wines, tobacco and cigar
cites sold in the occupied area. Hotels
and citizens who pay these taxes, in
defiance of their governments orders,
will be given protection by the armies
Of occupation.
The situation narrows down to a
shopkeeper being forced to decide
whether, when he makes a sale of
articles on the new tax list, he pre-
fers to pay up to 40 per cent 10 the
French and Belgians, and run the
risk of having the goods conhscated
or whether he chooses to refuse pay
ment to the invaders, and have them
seize and confiscate the goods.
