Alien Land Law
Evasion Here to
Bring Trouble

There are two sets of conditions
in this valley that are coming to
gether for a head-on collision that
will cause great deal Of agitation
among farmers, says S. A. Sprague
in the Arizona Gazette.
An extraordinarily determined and
efficient campaign is just starting I~r
the purpose Of inaugurating SYSTEM
of the cooperative marketing of nj
the leading products of the valley,
which will include lettuce, canta-
loupes and other garden-farm COM
modities produced for shipment.
The trouble will arise from the
fact that most garden farmers now
operating are aliens whom the law
does not allow to own or lease land,
yet, by an ingenious evasion Of the
law they are farming in a way that
would indicate that practically they
are lessons.
1t is said that their outlawed con,
ditiont puts them into condition
that allows those who act for them
as leasors to make such favorable
terms with them that there is a
tendecy to exclude American farm
ers from the best farms and give
preferential privileges in obtaining
contracts with shippers, or rather,
arrangements" or gentlemen's agree
ments with shippers.
Some of the questions to be solved,
when the head-on collision occurs are
the following. Can the American
farmers and the aliens legally join
in cooperative marketing associa.
tions, If they may do so legally, will
it be practical and satisfactory? II
illegal and impractical, what should
and can be done?
If the shippers take a stand for
retaining the aliens, what can and
should be done by the American
farmers in their organized capacity
in the arm bureau and otherwise?
