Small Town Code
 Exemption Helpful
New Ruling of the President Regarding Stores in
 Town of z,5O0 Big Relief to Rural Population

Washington, Oct s1.---In expla- nation of the presidents executive order exempting local retail stores employing not more than persons in towns of less than 2,500 pop ulation from provisions of both the retail code and the presidents re- employment agreement, National Recovery Administrator Hugh s. Johnson said in part in a public statement:
 "The recovery program came at Q time whep low prices were crushing agriculture, when in cit ies and towns there was the great est unemployment we have ever known, when debt and closed banks were slowing activity in cit- les and on farms, and destructive business practices due to depres- sion threatened many industries. The recovery program was de- signed to go to the heart of each trouble. To farmers 1t gave the adjustment and farm loan acts. To the unemployed 1t gave the recov- cry act, which permitted the wip- ing out of unfair trade practices. The banking and financial legisla- tion attacked the problem of debt and frozen deposits for both farm and city. Of course. more wages mean increased costs and higher prices. We must remember that when we started many prices were at panic low, levels at which neith- CT industry nor labor could live. Of this broad program MIRA is but a part. It has nothing to do with farm prices or public works, oil administration or the home and farm loan acts, etc. It is solely concerned with industrial organiza~ ton for economic planning and control with unemployment.
 "The nature of the farm prob lem, with its annual crops, makes it's solution slower. But after 4 months we find there are some things MIRA can do in aid of the farmer and the rural merchant. Our experience shows that the amount of unemployment and wage increase in establishments employ ing not more than persons in towns of less than 2,500 popula- ton is not enough to offset the hardship entailed. The president Is asking those who can do so to continue under the former rule. By all others the Blue Eagle with the exemptoin chevron may be dis

TRUCK DRIVERS
 IN MASS. BECOME VERY TRUCULET
One Truck Bnfned and Another DaufaSed as
 Strikers Atfack Them

southbridge. nash, Oct 31-(U P.)-one motor frBck was destroy ed by fire, anotber was partly burned. and seY6ral others were stoned as 100 linen described as striking truc1xnlen waylaid them in the vicinity q Charlton early to- day.
 No one was reported hurt.
 It was inc latest and most ser ious outbfealx in connection with a strike ofsome 500 union truckmen in SpriNgf7eld which began sunday. The strikers demand higher wages and Breferential treatment which would virtually mean closed shop. The strike Is sponsored by the International Brotherhood of Tea1rsters, Chauffeurs, Stablemen and Helpers of America. It has no connection with a similar strike which occurred last week in Con- necticut.
 Police reported that the 100 strikers, in about 30 automobiles, were patrolling. the state highway around Charlton, to prevent the movement Of truck traffic between New York and Boston, at the time of to-day's outbreak.
 <A4 tA0 lAGCt QA kEQChS, GSCOEtCQ by state troopers, chugged slowly to the brow Of Charlton Hill, in an isolated section, they entered d gauntlet" of strikers.
 While the state troopers were questioning the leaders of the strikers, other strikers poured gas- oline on a truck owned by the Somers Transportation Company of Springfield and Worcester. Then a lighted paper was tossed onto the truck, which was destroyed with it's cargo of mixed express, loss being placed at S10,000.
 Meanwhile, despite efforts of the state troopers, another truck burst into flames. A fire alarm was sounded, and soon Charlton fire apparatus and. additional state troopers were on the scene.
 The strikers escaped in automo- piles after smashing the wind shields or otherwise damaging five more trucks.
 Though no severe injuries were reported, Ernest Beck, 27, of Fitch burgh, driver of one of the trucks, was cut and bruised.
 To-day's outbreak followed close ly a less serious ono on the out skirts of Springfield, some 30 miles west of, here, late yesterday. There pickets waylaid a truck, smashed it's windshield, ripped off its head lights and manhandled the driver.

independence Day

July marks the 157th anniversary OF the adop-
ton Of the Declaration Of Independence by the Con
tinental Congress. and the birth Of nation. AS
time has proved this was Of the most significant
legislative acts in the history of the world.
The idea of separation Of the American colon
les from England first expressed IN the Congress
through resolution by Richard Henry Lee Of Vn-
ginia on June Z 1916 but it not passed immedl-
atey. A committee composed Of Thomas Jefferson
as chairman, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, R. r.
Livingston and Roger Sherman appointed on
June 10 to draw up suitable declaration in accord
ance with Lees resolution, and the drafting of the
immortal document was entrusted to Jefferson.
The Declaration as written by Jefferson, with
slight amendments by Franklin and Adams, was pre-
sented to the Congress On June 28 Lees resolution
was passed on July 2 and the Declaration Of indie
pendence was adopted on July 4.
After the formal document had been engrossed
on parchment it was signed by the delegates present
in Congress on August 2 1776 and by the absentees
on later dates. One delegate, Mexican of Delaware,
did not sign until 1871.
Of the 81 signers were not members OF Con
gress on July 4, and Of those present on that day
never signed the Declaration All except of the sign
ers were born on American soil; "a lawyers, 13
planters or farmers, merchants physicians, 2 me-
chanics, l clergymen mason and surveyor.
Two of the signers, Adams and jefferson, be-
came president Nearly all played important parts in
the early days of the republic It is fitting that
should pay tribute to their memory independence

ia Santa Cruz County and is event eagerly looked
forward each year by great ority of the men,

MONDAY NOT
HOLIDAY HERE

Although Governor Moeur has
proclaimed Monday a state holiday
it will not be observed as such in
Nogales.
The chief executive in a procla-
nation issued Tuesday urged all
state, county, municipal and busi-
ness house to stay closed.
The movement for holiday on
that date was started by the Phoe-
nix Junior Chamber of Commerce
to allow three days-July 2, and
4-in which employees and profess
sional men might have respite
from their various yocations.
The governor said that because OF
economic conditions many employ
es OF Arizona will not be privileged
to enjoy the benefits of their usual
vacation.
''It has been presented to me and
it is my belief" Governor Moeur
said, that to declare July 3 holi-
day will permit many employees to
avail themselves of the opportunity
to enjoy the scenic wonders of the
state, it's excellent highways and it's
gorgeous Fairgrounds, and will re-
suit in great benefit to the people
of the state of Arizona"

We Need A New Tune

There'll be a lot more enthusiasm in this years
celebration of the Fourth of July than there has been
for two or three years past Folks who had been wond
ering whether the Declaration Of independence was
out of date are beginning to chrk up and admit that
Uncle Sam is still doing nicely, thank you
There'll be more people trying to sing the Star
Spanged Banner than there were last year We say
trying advisedly. Did anybody ever hear any sing
er or group of singers who could really sing our ma
ional anthem? Among professional singers it is con-
ceded that nobody but Anna Case do it properly.
It's swell anthem, all right but think that,
as part of the New Deal somebody ought to dig up
or invent National song that everybody can sing.
America" is good but it's the same tune God
Save the King" and "Heil Dir in Segerkranz' Why
not go back to the Revolution of 16 and revive the
tune the Continental soldiers sang, which is Yankee
Doodle?" That's good lively tune, but it needs some
r6w words.

America Has Grown Up

Thirty-five years ago, OIL the 3rd OF July, 1890
the naval battle of Santiago put an end to SPANS
pretensions of being world power and put the Unit
ed States of America on the map Of the great
powes of the world. It is not putting the case too
strongly to say that until the Spanish War the Amer
can nation counted for very little in world affairs ex
cept as a source OF food supplies and politicians
and most Of our people felt themselves somehow IN
ferior to Europe and the Europeans.
Some of that inferiority idea still persists and
crops up every now and then, whenever the United
States takes part III any discussion OF international
affairs Foolish people get the notion that somehow
Americas diplomats and delegates are going to be
"outsnarted whenever they try to dicker with Euro
peans And Europe of course, does its best to make
that notion stick
We don't believe that European statesmen and
politicians are anv smarter than our We have
every confidence that the American delegation to the
present World Monetary and Economic Conference
will get all they went after, whether Europe likes it
or not
America has grown up.
A'PennsyWania paper relates in connection with
larceny trial that the accused "came from a good
family and was drunk when he came.
The first thing all these government boards
should do is to begin preparing for their investiga
ton by the Senate next winter

But this is only part of the story. Americans going to
France last year numbered $4,000, a decline of $4,000.
There has been asteady decline in the number of Ameri-
can tourists going to Europe ever since the stock market
debace of 1929. The "buy American campaign is just
now getting well under way, and the chances are that
there will be an even greater decline in the number of
American tourists going abroad during the present year.
Now the American tourist has always been welcomed in
Paris, for financial if not for sentimental reasons. He has
spent his money freely and the money he has left there
has helped to take care of the unfavorable trade balance
which France has with the United States.
1t is likely, now, however, that the ebbing tide of tour
lists to France may be accelerated by the fact that the re-
pudiation of the December installment on the debt owed
to America has not calculated to increase French prestige
in the United States. European governments, especially
Great Britain and France, seem to have assumed the at
titude that there is no room for argument on the debt
question, that Uncle Sam will have to cancel and there is
nothing he can do about it. Well, the American tourist
trade is one thing to be taken into consideration. Already
there is talk around Washington to the effect that a pro-
hibitive fee should be charged by our government for
passports to defaulting nations. 1t is easy to see where
France might lose more than the annual debt installments
by cancellation.

AUTO
SALES SHOW GAIN

In the first ten days of Febru-
airy Chevrolet dealers reported the
sale at retail of 1854 new cars
and trucks, a gain of 9.2 per cent
over the comparable period of
1882, H. j. Klingler, vice president
and general sales manager of the
Chevrolet Motor company, an
nounced today.
Numerically, the first ten days
of the present month compare
with 1850 units sold in the first
ten days of February last year,
and with 1912 in the first ten
days of January of this year.
Last February dealers delivered
$4,000 units to consumers in the
full month, and with a normal rate
of increase in the two remaining
reporting periods in February, the
total should be considerably ahead
of the same month last year.
By February 10 there were an
average of about four new cars
per dealer in the field, although
due to color options a shortage ex-
listed in certain models. This con-
dition is now largely corrected,
and dealers are able to make i'm
mediate delivery on practically
any desired model.
