Nogales on Thursday, April II, ac-
cording to announcement by Postmas-
ter S. ]. Nicholson of Phoenix, chair
man of the state organization.

tion Of the new Nogales postoffice
building on April IL. Mrs. Allie
Dickerman, postmaster at Tucson, is

existed for several years prior to
1917, but lapsed during the World
war. Mr.. Nicholson served several
terms as president of the organiza-
tior but declined to accept nomina-
tion for any office at the last meeting

WINSOR OUT OF RACE
FOR COY. - BELTS VS. HUNT

That Amos A. Belts, member of
.he state corporation commission,
will formally announce his intention
to be candidate at the fall primaries
for nomination for the office of gov
ernor on the Democratic ticket is
confidently expected by his friends.
The announcement, it is said, will
be Forthcoming within week or two
and will be followed by an active
campaign by the commissioner.
Mulford Winsor Of Yuma county,
chief proponent of the Colorado river
pact, and expected to be a candidate
for governor on the Democratic ticket
on pro-pact platform, will shortly
announce that he will not be a candi-
date, if reports from Yuma county
and those close to the political forces
of the state are. correct.
That, Governor Hunt will be candi-
date and will campaign against the
pact is a foregone conclusion. though
the governor has made no announce
ment as to his intentions. It is
known, however, that his belief of
its harmfulness to the state lies closer
to his heart than any issue that has
arisen in his previous campaigns.

charming readings which were much
appreciated by the Winslow Rotar-
ians. Miss Whetsel responded to a
request of an expression from her
with three highly pleasing piano
logues. Mr.. Ridgely delighted the
club with two classical violin selec-
lions, accompanied by Miss Whetsel.
The tonal quality of Mr.. Ridgely''s
playing was most enjoyable treat.

INDIANS SIPHON VEGETABLES
UNDER THE COLORADO RIVER

The embargo upon vegetables
grown In the San Pascuale valley has
been lifted. Confirmation to permit
the entry of Bard products to Arizo-
ma was received Sunday by Dr. Ed
ward 1. Stamm, state official, who is
IN charge Of quarantine enforcement
| in Yuma.
But whether the embargo was lift
ed, or otherwise, for while meant
nothing to a number of Indians living
on the reservation. They had settled
that little matter among themselves.
The quarantine officers on the
highway and railway bridges were on
deck "a hours a day. The Indians
couldn't get their products across to
Arizona while such strict vigil was
maintained. They wanted to get their
products across to Yuma, any way
Padding a canoe laden with stuff
was too much like hard work.
Why not do it the easiest way?
That's what several Indians thought
and they did, proving that they can
think.
So they just threw all the vege-
table supplies into the canal on the
other side Of the river, on the Cali
fornia side near the syphon entrance
and let gravity do the rest.
When the Indians later wandered
innocently across the bridge and me-
-andered to the canal on the reclama-
ton area they found the vegetables
floating down the canal. Then they
seined them cut. cleansed the prod
ucts, and, presto!
The embargo never troubled these
wise Indians. And it wouldn't have
interferred with them if DR.. Edward
+. Stamm, state quarantine officer,
had not been one of these ubiquitous
officials.
Of course, the syphon route was
soon closed to the Indians, and some
Of them suffered through confiseation

were imported from all over the

His Enmity to Labor

Sspeeial to the DAILY WoRKER)
NEW YORK, July 3o.-Sen-
ator LaFollette and his support
ers have forfeited the support
of the National Association for

People because they refused to
form a labor party.
This was made clear by sec
rotary James Weldon Johnson
in a statement repudiating the
story that the N. A. A. G. P. had
endorsed the Wisconsin SEN

Mr.. Johnson's statement cites the
recent PHILADELPHIA convention, where
the Negro organization condemned the
two old parties as 'the same oppres-

'It is perhaps needless to add"
continues Mr. Johnson, that the kind
of third party movement we are hop
ing and looking for did not materialize
in Cleveland. But that does not alter
the fact that a vigorous, progressive
third party, similar to the Labor
Party in England, would be the

Negro Appeal Against Khan Ignored.
The convention in Philadelphia last
month sent the LaFollette convention
a friendly formal political address and

alleged third party convention take

Chairman Johnston did not permit
either communication to be read to
the Cleveland convention, both being
completely ignored.

Bitterness is also expressed at the
Cleveland conventions neglect to pro-

Disappointment is general among
American Negroes at the failure of
the C. P. P. A. convention and its

their political thinking to such an ex-

It is recalled that in 1920, when
Senator LaFollette was offered the
