Federal Building Needed

Uncle Sam has given Nogales beautiful post
office and ont that would do credit to city much
larger but Nogaes is very important port Of entry
and one Of Uncle Sans outstanding border posts.
What we need here-and we need 1t badly-ls
another federal building to accommodate the scores
of government men who are permanently stationed
at NOgales
AS it is now the customs officers and staff are
camped into inadequate office space on the upper
floor Of the postoffce building and the immigration
officers and clerical force housed in portion OF
the Southern Pacific depot building, also are the
representatives of the department of agriculture.
The border patrol practically has headquarters
at all.
It would be impractical to build an addition to
the present postoffice there is but thing for
Uncle Sam to do Build another federal building.
The Importance Of Nogales as a border city, we
feel also justifies establishment here of federal
court SO that the number of federal cases that
develop right here could be tried here This might
be accomplished by having federal judge at Tue
son sent to NOgales at stipulated periods to hold
court here. This would save Uncle Sam many thou
sands Of dollars year now spent in transporting
federal prisoners to Tucson for trail. And in the
great majority of the offenders are Mexicans
who have crossed the line unlaWfuly and they are
brought back to the county jail at Nogales to serve
their terms. Very few sent to federal prison.
Should federal judge at Tucson be instructed
to hold court in Nogales at given periods would be
necessary to provide court facilities and herein lies
another good reason for building federal build
ing in NOgales
We believe Uncle Sam would give favorable
consideration to this suggestion if the Chamber Of
Commerce would take the matter up with repre-
sentatives in Congress and supply those represent
atives with sufficient convincing data on which to
base the suggestion.
President Hoover has stated on several occa-
sions that the government will expand rather than
retrench its public improvement program for the
next couple Of years. so it seems to us the time is
particularly opportune right now to go after this
We urge that the Chamber Of Commerce take
this matter up at it's next meeting and that new
federal building for Nogales be added to the Cham
bers list of major projects for 1880.

Old Irrigation
System Similar
New Method

UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA,
Tucson, August Archaeological
Investigations conducted in the Salt
River valley area of Arizona indi-
cate that many of the canals and
irrigation bitches are identical with
the ancient system first employed
by simple aborigines in Arizona.
Miss Glare Lee Traps of the Uni
versity of Arizona, in her thesis
Archaeological Survey of Arizona
points out sirnilarities between some
present channels and the ancient
canals.
According to Miss Traps an exten-
sive system of canals was first de-
veloped about ten miles northeast
Of Mesa and extended into and be-
yold the area of the Casa Grande
ruins.
In telling OF the foundation of the
compound at Casa Grande the ar
chaeologist explains the agricultl1r-
al system used She declared that
the entire area was given it's water

Not as all other women are
Is she that to my soul is dear;
Her glorious fancies come from far
Beneath the silver evening-star,
And yet her heart is ever near.
Great feelings hath she of her own,
Which lesser souls may never know;
God giveth them to her alone,
And sweet they are as any tone
Wherewith the wind may choose I'd
blow.
Yet in herself she dwelleth not,
Although no home were half SO fair
No simplest duty is forgot,
Life hath no dim and lowly spot
That doth not in her sunshine share,
She doeth little kindnesses,
Which most leave undone, or despise1
For naught that sets one heart at ease
And giveth happiness or peace,
Is esteemed in her eyes.
She hath no scorn of common things
And, though she seem of other birth
Round us her heart intwines and
clings,
And patiently she folds her wings
To tread the humble paths of earth.
Blessing she is: God made her 50,
And deeds of weekday holiness
Fall from her noiselesS as the snow,
Nor hath she ever chanced to know
That aught were easier than to bless
She is most fair, and thereunto
Her life doth rightly harmonic;
Feeling or though that was not true
Meier made less beautiful the blue
Unclouded heaven of her eyes.
She is woman: one in whom
The spring time of her childish yeari
Hath never lost its fresh perfume,
Though knowing we'll that life hath
room :
For many blights and many tears.
I love her with love as still
AS broad rivers peaceful might,
Which, by high tower and 1owly min
Seems following its own wayward
And yet doth ever flow Alright.
And, on its full, deep breast serene,
Like quiet isles my duties lie;
1t flows around them and between.
And makes them fresh and fair ani
green,
Sweet homes wherein to 1--we aod die

All OF the labor in building the
first canals employed crude imple-

To-day, states Miss Traps, many

only devices employed by the abor-

The fact that the earlier people
were able TO ,,u.Id as accurately as
they did is said to be g, compliment
to their culture and ability The ex-
treme age of some of the unused
bitches is saowa by the fact that
the beds of the canals are eight to
fifteen feet below the bed CT the
river.
The first builders OF the canals
reinforced the walls of the bitches
and spent much time in making the
system substantial and enduring.

A Beautiful Thought

In these days Of political strife, strenuous compe-
ttion for the elusive dollar, arguments over unem
poynent and many other worldly things that hold our
attention from day to day, it is indeed refreshing
when one sees signs Of human interest; signs that
prove that after all is said and done we can still
think Of the beautiful things in life and that all Of
have not been lost in the cauldron of commercial con
flict
We have in mind the beautiful thought that
prompted the three Robles sisters the other day
surprise their parents by entirely refurnishing their
home. Not & word said in advance The parents
were taken out for drive-and on a Sunday, too
and upon returning home few hours later Mr.. and
Mrs. Juan Robes were genuinely surprised when they
stepped into their home and saw new furniture in ev-
cry roon2 from the front door to the back porch.
The young ladies who did this very thoughtful
and beautiful thing for their father and mother pro-
baby spent weeks and weeks in planning and while
their parents overjoyed by the surprise they
certainly dd not derive any pleasure from the
gift than did the givers themselves The Robes sisters
know now that "t is more blessed to give than to re-
ceive."
How much better this old world would be if there
were more "Robles sisters who would give more
thought to the beautiful side of life

A Polite Slap

An editorial was carried in a recent issue of the
other Nogales newspaper which had all of the ear
marks Of a slap in the face. The slap was directed
a news item "to help fill up that days ISSUE
Every newspaper man knows that a newspaper
always gets more material than it publish, but
the public has way Of knowing this and should
not be expected to know it.
It seems to us that the polite slap was entirely
uncalled for
AS for the Nogales international, we Will always
gladly receive all news tips and information Of any
kind and will feeunder obligation to those who take
the trouble to bring oA phone it to us. When some
item fails to appear, however we want our readers
to know that it was just crowded out because of
lack Of space and not due to any lack Of news value
of that item.

The advantages and values Of newspaper adver-
Using are being more widely recognized every day
by those large enterprises which are seeking to in
crease their volume of business.
This week the Fox Theatres Corporation an
nounced from New York that henceforth it Will ad-
vertise ONLY IN NEWSPAPERS Money hereto
fore spent in other forms of advertising is to be used
for increasing newspaper space.
Among the reasons for the decision Of this great
company which must be sure that it's advertising
gets before the public, are listed the following:
Newspaper advertising is more flexible.
Newspaper advertising allows for last minute
changes.
Newspaper advertising is completely digested by
the readers.
Newspaper advertising is more convenient for
the readers than other forms of advertising
There are other reasons why newspaper adver-
tIsng IS being adopted as means Of placing before
the public the information concerning goods and
service. The daily newspaper has become national
institution and is read by practically everyone who
can read It has truly become the housewives re-
ference bible in her attempt to place the manage
ment OF the home On business-like basis.
There is no doubt about it. Newspaper adver-

ANCHORAGE HIGH
 HANDS WALLOP
 SEWARD LADS

The Anchorage high school lads put serious crimp in the Seward Ponies aspirations for a third con- 'secutive championship of tn 2 schools of the two cities by brush ing the Blue and White cagers aside last night for a 26 to Is victory, which gives the Inlet boys three games so far, to the Seward teams one, and only two more to play. And if the brand of basketball that the visitors flashed in some parts of last nights match is an indica- tiOn of some of the stuff they pack, the Ponies will have to work two more miracles in order to take the two remaining games to get a tie.
 For two minutes during the third quarter the Ponies looked like the Ponies of old, getting six points in rapid succession on a flash of smart floor work, but the Anchorites were quick to recover their equilibrium and squashed the rally. The Ponies shot field goal apiece and Guy Manthey converted three of his six free throws; two more points were made on successful free tries by Don Shellhorn and Jack Rosness.
 The Anchorage scoring attack was led by the sharp shooting Ted Stranberg who garnered 12 points fer his team. It looked very much as tho the Ponies overlooked the uncanny eye of this lad, for he was permitted to range unguarded in the vicinity of the basket and slip pei in five field goals and two fouls Bob Knapp, former popular Seward boy, played an aggressive game anC besides giving his forward partner Stranberg able support and team work, begged two pretty baskets and made good his one try from the foul line. Floor guard Robert Carl son started to set the pace for his scoring mates by tossing two fielc baskets and a foul for five point, in the opening quarter, but over guarding caused him to be removed shortly after the second half got midway He was replaced by Odir stranberg. shadura at center anc Bayer as guard connected for : basket apiece.

BORAH VOICES HIS VIEWS ON
 DISARMAMENT

WASHINGTON, March 3, P)- Senator William Borah, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee terminated his silence on the London Naval Conference in a speech over the radio in which he warned the nations at the Con- ference of the consequences which he feels will follow in the failure to reduce armaments.
 If these governments and their representative do not sufficiently realize at this time the necessity Of taking some risk in order to lift the weight of armaments from their people, venture to say that in due time they will have ample notice of their mistake" he said
 In vigorous language Senator Borah traced the present world conditions. He pointed to the heavy taxes made necessary by military organizations and pictured what he considered world wide demand for reduction of these tax es thru international armament agreements. He asserted no time could be more suspicious for reduc- tion than at present.
 If the Conference should fail composed as it is of nations who So recently were close allies, il would be great disappointment and genuine sorrow to countless millions and its failure would spel nothing less than dispair in tho matter of relieving the world of the burden it has to bear, Failure vii mean catastrophe, he asserted.
