The Results

The lower house of the Tenth Arizona legislature,
in It's WISDOM declined to pass bill authorizing the
use of force account on state highways. Wme the
measure mustered a comfortable majority III the low
e house it lacked few votes of the necessary two
thirds to pass it with the emergency clause 1t was
considered emergency legislation in view OF the SER
iolls unemployment situation in the state.
Governor Hunt naturally was disappointed that
the lower house of the legislature did not see III 10
extend this cooperation in his efforts to employ Ar
zona citizens on highway work at decent rates OF pay
However, the sturdy old governor emerged from
the conflict with two distinct and valuable points
gained as result He did obtain, with the cooperation
of the Arizona Highway Commission, concession
from the federal bureau of roads that local Arizona
citizens should be employed exclusively on highway
contracts where the federal government participates
in the cost.
In addition, statement was obtained from the
federal bureau of roads that did not object to the
State Highway Commission requiring contractors to
pay a minimum wage Of S4.OO day.
Enthusiastically the federal bureau while per
mitting the State Highway Commission to insist that
contractors file their schedule of wages before the
letting of the contracts would not agree that the
minimum wage should be written into the body OF
the contract The bureau strained at gnat and
swallowed camel
While Governor Hunt was not able to get the
legislative cooperation force account ne cid sue
ceed in obtaining guarantee that Arizona citizens
would be employed on Arizona roads, and that they
would not be peoniZed by unscrupulous contractors
who take advantage of their great need Tor employ
lnent to depress wages to an unreasonable level.

We Can't Let Them Starue

In twenty-one states of the Union distress such
as QUIZ country has not experienced since the earliest
pioneer days has visited literally millions of Ameri
can citizens and their families. All Of the Industrial
unemployment, of which much has been said and
written is trfling in it's consequences of human mis-
cry, compared with the sufferings of these country
people in the regions where the drought OF 1890 laid
its whitening hand
The men and women who are administering the
Red Cross relief in the stricken districts report that
even the distress caused by the Mississippi flood OF
1928 was less serious not only because there
many people affected but because OF the feeling
Of hopeessness among the drought sufferers. Those
who were driven from their homes by the flood even
though their homes and all they had washed
away, knew that Old Man River would subslde III
time and leave their land richer than before. There
was always the land and next years crops to look
forward to.
The people in the drought country have seen
their land fail them. That is the real tragedy Of the
present situation Their crops failed their livestock
died of thirst, they could not accumulate enough to
carry themselves and their families over the winter
and they look forward despOndently toward another
poor crop year, for it takes more than to
bring the dried-out soil back to fertility
Unlike a large part of those seeking unemplOy-
ment relief in the cities these people have never be-
that fully half Of those living public bounty in the
cities have never worked regularly and refuse to work
when employment is offered them. These drought
sufferers have always worked and worked hard They
are Of the stock and character which makes up the
backbone of our Nation, And they exhausted their
own resources down to the last moIsel of food most
Of them before they would accept the bounty Of the
Red Cross administered in each locality by the de-
voted men and women Of the community, serving
without pay, negIecting their own business and al
fairs to minister to these their distressed neighbOrs

Ranch Tomorrow

All preparations have been COM
pleted at the Circle ~" Ranch for
their regular mid-Winter rodeo
which will be held on the ranch
rodeo field, tomorrow afternoon, be-
ginning promptly at two p m.
Word has been received at the
ranch that many of the Tucson
rodeo contestants will be there to
compete with the local cowboys in
roping and riding. An added fea-
ture to the Circle ~" rodeo this
year will be the appearance of Jack
Webb, world famous fancy roper
who will exhibit his skill with the
lariat.
The rodeos at Circle ~" Ranch
are given primarily for the enter
tainment of the ranch guests. Dur
ing the past years they have become
a state wide event and hundreds
Of winter visitors from all over the
state usually attend to witness the
exhibition of cowboy skill.
There will be more than sixty
contests during the afternoon which
will include calf roping, team steer
tying, wild horse riding and Bronco

The rodeo field at the Circle ~"

beautiful spots in southern Arizona
and the equipment of chutes, cor
rails, etc., is adequate for the pro-
duction Of a fast and interesting
rodco.

whole district one Red Cross worker reports from
Kentucky Cali Of the wild game that survived the
drought has long since been shot trapped to feed
these starving people"
More than half million Of these good American
families must be kept alive and in health by the help
of the rest of u.s. The Red Cross had five million dol
lars to start with and is asking the American people
for ten millions more. That is little enough even
though every cent Of it goes for actual provisions and
clothing, as it does.
Are we going to let these people starve? Or will
we who have been more fortunate than they come

The State of Maryland requires a
yearly automobile inspection. 1t re-
quires every garage owner who signs
up for the work of inspecting to pay
$3.50 for the privilege of going over
the cars of the public, free of charge.
The law concerning this annual in
spection clearly states that the exam
ination will not cost the State any
money, nor will it cost the car owner
any of his cash.
Now, isn't that some legislation for
you? Looks like somebody is the
goat, and that somebody is the man
who operates the garage where you
stop to have your car inspected.
