city governments is sufficient proof
that this prediction has literally
come to pass. Some of the most
common of this type of legislative
measures attempted in the various
states this year and passed in some
were as follows: Measures estab-
fishing or increasing compensation
insurance; creating old age pen
sions; creating mothers and wild
ow's pensions, providing for I'M
employment insurance; creating
! minimum wage commissions; grant
ing special immunity to labor
unions; creating state licensing
boards for building engineers,
plumbers, electricians, BARRIERS,
beauty parlor operators and others;
bills providing for shorter hour
week; for government in business;
for labor on Sunday; for amend
ments to mechanics lien law; for
the adoption of the child labor
amendment; for the restriction of
employment of married women; for
the regulation of hours of drug
store employees, for the establish
ment of industrial relations courts;
for the prohibiting Of payment of
wages by checks; measures provid-
ing for one days rest in seven;
nti-discrimination measures; anti
Injunction laws; full crew bills; and
many others.
These efforts Of a great nation
wide organization to gain thru leg
islaticn what they have failed to
gain thru strikes, boycotts, intimi-
dation and coercion, has brought
those in the firing line of the Open
Shop Movement to the inescapable
conclusion that the political and
legislative angle Of this cause can
no longer be ignored and that there
can be no Open Shop with Union
political control The legislatures
of California, illinois, Massachu-
sets and Ohio, this@year were
scenes of most desperate legisla-
tive struggles on a new syndicated,
organized labor measure which has
come to be referred to as the
yellow Dog Bill" This measure
would make individual contracts of
employment involving any agree
ment not to join labor union, null
and void, and prohibit the same
under severe penalties.
The Florida Employers Associa-
ton is serving for the business and
industrial interests of this state by
keeping in constant touch with such
activities as are mentioned above
and also serving its members in
numerous ways that cannot be men
toned here. The association In
vites those who may care to know
more about its objects and activi-
ties to address any inquiry to;

ARIZONA CATTLE CLEANEST IN
THE UNION SAYS HARRY SAXON

Although some parts of Mex
leo are known to be infested by
fever ticks, and thousands and
thousands Of head of cattle are
imported annually through No
gales into Arizona, there never
has been an outbreak. of fever
ticks in Arizona from cattle i'm
ported from Mexico, and no fever
tick has ever crossed the border
here, it was state Wednesday by
Harry J. Saxon of Wilcox, presi-
dent of the Arizona Cattlegrow-
ers Association, a visitor in the
city enroute home from Phoenix
where he attended meeting of
the association, and the Arizona
State Livestock Sanitary Board,
of which he is chairman.
Absence Of fever ticks in this
state is a result of state off
cials cooperating with federal au-
thorities, it was stated by Mr.
Saxon who added that there has

TURNING TO THE FARM

Criminoogists seem to be turning to the use of
the farm in their efforts to solve the crime ques-
ton. 1t is beginning to be generally recognized
that the wholesome farm atmosphere is not
breeding place of criminals There are $50 boys
at Berkshire Industrial Farm who have been sal
vaged from the sluus of New York or from dis
rupted homes, These boys, who defied author
lty, committed lawless acts and gave indications
that they would grow up to be thieves and thugs,
have been sent to the farm to get their bearings in
life.
After several years at the farm, these Dhope-
less boys have learned trade and are equipped
for life. They are kept from landing in reform
schools and are made good citizens.
1t seems to us that this is about the best plan
yet devised for dealing with the problem boy
and that it should be universally adopted. It
seems to present modern and intelligent attack
crime.
This method of handling juvenile delinquency
seems to affirm the belief held by many that such
delinquency is more frequent in the big cities than
in the smaller towns

WAGER UNBEATABLE

With every assurance there will be bitter
fight for the Democratic nomination for County
Supervisor in District No2 this year, the Democrats
will be victorious in that district at the general cleo
tion in November
Two years ago warm fight for the nominations
leaving bad feeling existing among rival Demo
cratic factions following the primary resulted in
Republican being elected at the November 1926
election
This year the Democrats are determined to
stand together in that District and also in all other
districts therefore, the next Board Of Supervisors
will be Democratic.
We are of the opinion that Victor J. Wager will
consent to be a candidate in District No. q Mr..
Wager is strong party and it. can be said that
he is the sort of Democrat who never scratches his
ticket Ii he makes the race and we believe he will
he will be elected supervisor by handsome majority
In his various campaigns for the office Of county
assessor he demonstrated he can always poll big
majorities- evidence that he is very popular man.
No one can beat Vic Wager for supervisor or
any other office to which he may aspire in this
county.

DUFFY OR TOVREA

Although one has yet announced as candi-
date for the Democratic nomination for Supervisor
in District No. 1, the Nogales International can as
it's Republican friends that Democracy will have
candidate in that district
Pressure is being brought to bear on two men to
seek the nomination.. These gentlemen are Judge
Frank j Duffy andJ. C. Tovrea two sterling dyed
ln-the-wool Democrats, and strict party men
and if Tovrea runs, Duffy will not be candidate,
That's the right spirit for it spells party success at
the November election.
Whatever has happened in the past in regard to
primary campaigns causing bitter feeling among
Democrats, those old wounds have been healed and
the Democrats will see to it that Democratic can
didate is elected supervisor in District No on
Tuesday November 6.

Fuente and Colima were known
to be first class boxers, but what
about their opponents?
Now comes the Floto Burke
fight. AS for Floto, we are at a
loss to know who he has ever
met, but we have heard of him
before, though only Fred Winsor's
famous ballyhoo, and are willing
TO see him fight, but wat about
Jack Burke According to local
announcements he has fought
such men as Stribling, Uzcudun,
Tunney, Delaney, etc, while the
records books fair to disclose any
of these fights or even mention
his name, unless / am blind, how
ever, I would welcome the chance
to Grange my impression by hav-
ing someone produce any proof
sustaining Burke's fighting rec
ord as advert 'sed locally.
The fans of this town want two
rea | fighters to show their
prowess, not one good fighter
and Polooka, as mostly has been
the case. The POSTERS also an
nounce that Phil Floto has knock
ed out every man he has met in
tie ring. According to knowledge
of the game of fistiana, Mr.. Floto
has vet to fight his first fight. In
other words, he has never fought.
Nogales must and will have good
fights. if the fans and the Press
ere willing to cooperate.

LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR

Nogales, Ariz., June z, 1928.
To The Editor:
Through yesterdays Hearld I
learned with delight that Mr.. D.
Kelly who is promoting the Floto-
Burke fight is contemplating
bringing here several of the coun-
try's best known boxers if the
fans of this town are willing to
support his cards
Good fights have always been
we'll supported here and as, it
has always been the case, bad or
uneven matched fights have al
ways killed the game, at least
temporarily.
Now, Mr.. Editor, don't you be-
lieve that the fan, who is the main
factor in the fights, is entitled to
some consideration or protection
as to the veracity of the records
IF the fighters as advertised
hrough posters and especially
through the newspapers?
The majority of the fans are
Induced or encouraged to attend
fight through the newspaper
write-ups. It seems to me that
he papers should know or en-
'eavor to know through record
')ooks or thru any definite means
f no set-ups are to be dished to
he local followers of the game,
s it has happened here in the
,ast, for instance the Fuente
sight, which was later proven a
''ain set-up as they were arrest
d at Yuma, tried and found gull
v, as Fuente was fighting the
same Palooka under a different
name in each town. We swallow
ed the bait then as we did when
Colima fought Wallace.

NogaIes Brewery
Again Operating

The Negales Brewery, gutted
by fire a few weeks ago, has re-
sumed operations, it was an
nounced yesterday by Joe Wise,
owner.
A new galvanized roof has
been placed on the building and
construction work is being push
ed to completion. However, the
work is not interfering with the
making of beer and ice.
A new 30-ton ice plant has
been installed and ice is now be-
ing manufactured.
The new brewery, Mr.. Wise
said, will be more up-to-date and
more economical than the destroy
ed structure.

HISTORYOF
FEDERATION
Epworth League Or
R~anization Started
Sept. 5, 1919

RAYM0NDVILLE, Sept. I. 49, On
September 5, the Rio Grande Valley
Epworth League Federation, now In
session at R~aymondville, viii pass
its ninth milestone.
Pursuant to n call issued by Paul
W. Reed Of McAllen, who was nc that
time district secretary of the lower
section Of the old Beeville district,
the leaguers from the various chap
ters Of the Valley met In McAllen on
September 5, 1919, to discuss the adj
visibility of forming n union or fed
Grafton OF the leagues Of this sec
ton. After thoroughly discussing the
matter, the Rio Grande Valley Ep-
worth League Federation was formed
with Mr.. Glen Fl. Tussing Of San Be-
nito as its first president, the differ
emit leagues pledging to pay q total
Of $4,000 for the year 1920 for
mission work.
Miss Gladys Snavely, Edinburg, sue
ceeded to the presidency September
25, 1921, and was followed by \. "A.
Dudley. Brownsville, September 2,
1928. Mr.. Dudley served the fedora
ton us president for four years and
was succeeded by Miss Wilmuth Nor
gan, Mission, August 20, 1927. Since
March. 1928, in the absence Of Miss
Morgan, the federation has been I'M
der the leadership Of Ebert Lockard,
Brownsville, acting vice president.
From the beginning, all the
Leaguers Of this district have proved
loyal TO the federation. Although the
number attending. meetings was, mt
first, small, IL has now increased I'M
til it is a real problem for any one
local chapter TO entertain the organ
ization.
Even from the day OF its organiza-
tion, the federation has endeavored
20 be more than a mere mutual ad-
miration society,"" closing OF theaters
OF Sunday being one Of the objects
discussed at its initial meeting.
Later. among other evils which the
federation has strived to eliminate,
has been the advertising Of bull
fights on the American side Of the
river. One Of the outstanding OBJ
jects Of the federation has been help
ing to support the work of the Valley
institute at Pharr. Two Institutes
under central office men have been
sponsored since organization with a
number of credits issued. Among the
visits from conference officers Miss
Florence NJ. Mercer, president, was
here in August, 1924; B. ". Clemens,
president, in August, 1926, and I. "a.
Dudley, president, in August, 1927.
During this period the federation
had the following district secretaries:
Paul ". Reed, 1919 20 1921; Miss
Elsie Reid, Brownsville, 1922 to 1923;
r. G. Bryson, Brownsville, 1924 to
