But don't be like a wife OF a friend

to the conclusion that the budget
system was the one and only plan for
the home and they proceeded to put
it into effect. Her husband gave her
a generous sum of money as her first

merrily along for three weeks, and
then he finally asked:
How's the budget system getting
along?
Fine she replied
Books balance he said
Sure she answered.
However, he was a little Skeptical
and asked that he might inspect her
accounts. This was readily granted.
On running over the list of items he
found that the abbreviation 'G. o. X

JAPS MAY GO TO MEXICO.

From Mexico City comes the
report that more than $4,000 ia

settle in various Mexican states.
The information was given out

terror of the southern republic,
in the following message:
Arturo j. Braniff, Mexican
financier, personally interested
IN the matter, reports that more
than $4,000 japanese farmers
with ample means are ready to
emigrate from California, where
they are residing, because of the
prohibition against continuing,
leases or buying lands in the
United States. Mr.. Braniff's re.
preventative has been conferring
with the Japanese ambassador
in Washington, who desires to
learn whether the Mexican gov.
ernment objects to the arrival
of these colonists in Mexico for
the purpose of dedicating them:
selves to agriculture.
Various Latin-American gov.
ernments have made proposals
along similar lines. Because of
the great Importance of the mat
ter, the governors of Colima.
Nayarit, Sinaloa, Sonora and
Jalisco have been asked to give
their opinions since the Japanese
colonists prefer lands in these
regions.
When these opinions are re.

RADIO TALKS TO FARMERS.

Radio broadcasting stations in
some states are sending out on
Tuesday and Wednesday even.
ings of each week, talks on
agriculture, the last word of the
scientist and the scientific far.
mer expressed in crisp and in
teresting form.
When it is considered that
with proper methods of agricul.
ture and with proper prepara.
tion of the soil, the revenue from
farms might be doubled, the
value OF the movement is quite
apparent. Agents of experiment
stations preaching this doctrine
of scientific agriculture are max
ing much headway, but the dis
semination of such knowledge
requires ceaseless effort and con
stant pounding. The tabloid
talks by radio thus come to the
assistance of the county agents
and the farmer.
The ratio station will present
these facts not only to the farm.
err, but to the boys and girls on
the farm. It will aim to make
the farmer appreciate to the
fullest extent his investment in
his acres.

PEACE OFFICERS WILL MEET

A call, sponsored by Sheriff J..
F. Mcdonald of Cochise county,
has been issued for a meeting of
the peace officers of the State at
Phoenix on Mayo, with view
of perfecting arrangements for
efficient corporation among the
officers.
Improved methods of travel
enable criminals to hurriedly
leave the scene of their crimes
|. and often can only be appre-
hended by officers located at a.
distance. This makes co opera
tion among the officers of the
greatest Importance, and will no
doubt result in a more efficient
enforcement Of law.
In addition to planning for
complete co operation in general
law enforcement, the officers
whose daily experience enables
them to appreciate the problems
which they have to overcome,
may arrange to petition the law
making powers for some RENE
dial legislation to enable them to
act more effectively.
The prevention of traffic in
narcotics and the suppression of
the automobile thief will also re.
ceive attention.
All officers whose duties in
volve the enforcement of law,
federal, state and municipal have
been urged to attend.

MAKE PEOPLE PARTNERS

The Boston, News Bureau of
April 9 contains a brief sum-
mary of the claims made by the
advocates of the Ford offer for
Muscle Shoals contrasted with
the claims made in favor of the
offer of the Southern power com.
panieS.
After reading over both pro.
positions, one is struck with the
fact that the Ford offer demands
a 100-year lease which is' con.
trary to the terms of our Federal
Water Power Act which limits
the length of lease to SO years.
Just how the 50-year clause in
the Federal leasing act can be
ignored has not been explained.
Mr.. Ford offers to pay $219,-
964, 954 for the 100 year rental
on dams No. 2 and No. 3, while
the power company offer would
return to the government $685..
084, 400 for so years rental of
the same property
AS the magnitude of this pro-
ject and the value OF it from the
standpoint of national service
are becoming more fully recog-
nized, many are of the opinion
that a new and diligent study of
the whole question is essential.
The idea of customer owner
ship Of these properties has been
growing, as preferable to one
man ownership. Existing power
companies serving several states
could by grouped under hold
ing company and the residents
of these states or the nation at
large, ,and customers in the terri
tory served by the Muscle Shoals
project, could be offered the
securities issued to carry on the
Muscle Shoals development.
Thus tens Of thousands of peo.
pie would become interested in
the project and under suitable
state and national regulation
would share in reasonable oper-
ating profits.
The greatest public utilities in
the world today are operated on
this basis. Why not make Mus
Gle Shoals a similar national
asset?
