CASA CRANDE NATIONAL
MONUMENT MO. REPORT
Continued from last week.


the 26th; the greatest daily
range was 4S on the 4th; the
mean temperature for the
month was S3.5. Rain fell on
the % and Goth for a total OF
.53 inches; there were 26 clear
days, three part cloudy and one
cloudy.
Ranger Hugh Curry, of the
Montezuma Castle National
Monument, spent a short time
at the monument on the 9th.
Mr.. Everett E. Tillett and
Herbert L. Wooten, auditors
from the Washington Office, ac-
companied by their wives and
Master Everett Tillett, arrived
on the night of the 18th and
spent3, the ia and part of the
18th with Chief Clerk Even
stad on the books, installing
the now bookkeeping system.
One remark of Mrs. Wootan's
stands out clearly in our minds; f;
uniforms came up for discussion
and in her opinion, if it is al
ways as hot as when she was
here, the official uniform for
Casa Grande should be a bath
ing suit. Mrs. Wooten was
here after our summer weather
was over and the thermometer
was standing at only 106 de-
grces.
The equipment of the sub
contractor for the placing of
the footings for the new shelter
arrived on the 18th. Mr.. Wal
ter G.. Attwell, Associate Engin-
Ger, National Park Service, ar
rived on the 10Th and excava-
tion work started that after
noon. At the present time two
of the footingS are completed.
Each footing weighs approxi-
mately IS tons and, while of
course they were designed to
hold the roof up, the principal
reason for their size lis to hold
it down. Local labor is not
beneftting from the work as
the Sub-contractor is from
Phoenix and is using his regular
crew. There is a surplus of To-
cal labor that applies each day
for work. The sub-contractor
is paying $500 per day for his
foreman and $500 for common
labor and has a crew of eight
men working.
Mr.. l.. l.. White, the engin-
eer for Allen Bros. who are the
general contractors, arrived on
the 26th and he and Mr.. Att
well have been busy designing
plans for the temporary roof to
protect the Casa Grande dur
ing the erection of the steel.
The steel is due to arrive about
the teenth of October.
In spite of the extreme care
being used during the excava-
ton two short sections of wall
of the small outlying rooms
were lost. No one can be blam-
ed because every precaution
was taken to protect the walls.
The trouble was that while the
walls were undercut, the exca-
vations had to go so close 10
the bases that the dirt below
the foundations air Stacked and
sloughed. Fortunately both
walls fell after work was over
for the day so there was no one
lii tie pits to be injured Meth
er of the walls was exceedingly
valuable although everyone con-
cerned regrets the loss of them.
"New furniture for our offices
arrived during the month. The
Custodian's office is now equipp-
ed with a steel desk. a steel
filing cabinet and two steel
tables. The Park Naturalist

|BORAH SPEAKS
 AND HOOVER IS
 QUICK TO ARCEE
His Program for Interna- tiOnal Economic RecOv- cry, However, Cannot Be Discussed Until After Elections
By JOSEPH Fl. BAIRD

(Untted Press Stan COrrespOndent) Washington, July 26,-CUP)- Senator Borah's declaration for a program of international economic recovery. including conditional ad- justment of war debts, was describ- ed today in an informed quarter as fairly accurate presentation of the administration views.
 This is true, the United Press informant said. despite the fact Borah spoke without guidance from President Hoover or Secre- tary of State Stimson. The state department knew in advance of Borah's speech, but did not help frame 1t.
 Now that Borah has cast his ideas upon the waters of public opinion. officials are watching anx- iously to see what the tide of re- action brings in. The administra- tion is convinced that American sentiment now is opposed to any adjustment of war debts. That con- viction is a guiding factor in it's policy of refusing to consider debt reduction at this time. But Borah in the past has been influential. He is prepared to take the stump this summer and fall in an effort to swing public opinion in favor of his program.
 Borah advocated disarmament, revision of the Versailles treaty, economic and financial stabiliza- tion and conditional war debt re- vision. Praising the Lausanne &C., cord, virtually ending separations, Borah said that if the policies initi- ated at Lausanne are carried out, 'sthere will come a time when it will be to the interest of the people of the United States to consider again the question of these (war) debts"
 The administration is understood to agree. It is convinced that mere ly to cancel Europe's debts would do little to bring the world to a basis of peace and prosperity. But to achieve disarmament, stable money, political peace in Europe. and better prices for American ex- ports at the cost of new deal on war debts is regarded by many offi- cials as distinctly advantageous to the United States.
 Just how such a program might be worked out is not yet clear to those who must direct it.
 Borah himself believes the United States should take the lead in calling a new conference to tackle disarmament, debts and economic problems together. He hopes to arouse public opinion to force the administration to act.
 Borah comedies that such con- ference could not be called be- fore the elections. The United States has expressed willingness to attend a world economic confer ence expects to convene this fall. but has said debt discussions must he barred. Borah does not believe this conference can accomplish much without going into the debt question.
