HeffuBm
WHEAT ALLOTMENT INJUSTICE

As the Christmas holidays draw
near and other needs for a little
spending money are pressing, In
Guiding taxes and living expenses
1t would seem almost q crime to
further delay these much expected
wheat allotment checks. There's
been mighty exasperatfng delays
and blasted hopes already. Most OF
us are reconciled to the fact that
we will not get anything until
about February first. and II every
thing could be fair and sQuare then
1t would be worth waiting for.
But 1t appears that the injustice we
have called attention to earlier will
still be a part OF the program. The
farmer with a small three-year
base allotment, the one who has
co-operated In the past In the re-
duction program will still be pen
allied.
Our Wheat Control Board have
worked hard In trying to adjust
the large over-run and to comply
with regulations. They have shown
sympathy for our plan OF basing the
wheat allOtments on our total cut-
tivated acreage as suggested sew
eral weeks ago but felt without
proper authority with which to use
". In a recent letter from the Ag-
ricultural Adjustment Administra-
ton received by the writer, Mr..
Farrell. Associate Chief states, mo
such change can be made by the
frhxnx Cn~&sow ~ the A A ttndnr |
the present regulations By this
we will see that there's no chance
at present. But we cannot see why
there cannot be some adjustments
OF these regulations in this regard
as we'll rs In many other matters.
1t seems not impossible III W e can
but get sufficient publicity and
pressure exerted. Perhaps when the
contract signing time comes along
something will happen to show the
sentiments OF the farmers.
In last weeks paper WI see that
Sheridan County,s total allotment
has been raised to some 2g4,UU0
acers OF wheat. With this new fig
ure figured on the total cultivated
acreage OF the county we get q
percentage OF about $50, which
means that $50 OF the total land
under cultivation In Sheridan coun-
ty Is assumed to be In wheat. On
this basis the cooperating farmer
OF the past three years who has
been reducing his wheat acreage to
almost nothing can now be given
an even break with the ones that
have kept ON continually putting
into wheat every acre available.
Some suggestions have been made
that on farms with 100 acres or
less OF wheat that no further re.
auctions be made. Ii the 1870 over
run still to be whitfield down can
not be adjusted 1T has been sug-
gested that a graduated scale OF
be arbitrarily made on
those acres over this 100. The feel
Ing seems to be that where a FAIR
system Is being used all around
that a cut will be taken o gra-
ciously. Ait the several meetings
we've had and In private conver-
1t has been somewhat sur
az well al gratifying to see
the spirit OF fair play exhibited by
our farmers. We still feel that our
plan OF basing on cultivated AGREE ,
be a most satisfactory solu-
ton both now and In the future II I
adopted.

LOS ANGELES, April rs. W.P)--
Pierino E. Manfred, former assls-

DO branch of the Bank OF America,
accused of embezzleinent, today

Regarding the amount of money
Manfred is accused of misappro-

TAX MATTERS
BEFORE BOARD
Supervisors Take Action To
Ease Penalties In Property
Pl,demptions.

Redemption Of delinquent taxes
received serious consideration from
the board of county supervisors
yesterday afternoon and the present
state redemption laws were brought
into the line of fire. After much
discussion of this problem the
board adopted a resolution calling
for change in these laws. copies
of which were sent to State Senator
Ben Hulse and Assemblyman Sam
Robinson.
Basing their recommendations on
the present economic and finan-
cial condition of property owners
which makes it impossible for many
of them to redeem these delinquent
taxes due to the high rate of in
terest and heavy penalties now ex-
istent, the board offered the fol-
lowing suggestions to the legislature
as remedy.
Persons whose estate has been
sold shall, at any time after this
sale and before disposition thereof
by the state, haze the right to re-
deem this property by paying to
the county treasurer of the county
wherein this real estate is located,
not less than 20 per cent of the
total delinquency against this prop
erty, less all penalties and interest
which had been added A proyis-
ion here states that this shall be
the case provided not less than
20 per cent of these taxes shall
have been so paid on or before the
delinquent date of the second in
stallment of the taxes for the cur
rent year.
Continuing, the resolution states:
Thereafter not less than 20 per cent
of the original delinquency, less &C
crued interest and penalties added
may be paid not later than the de-
linquent date of the second INSTALL
ment of each years taxes.
In the event the owner of this
property fails to make a payment
during any subsequent fiscal year
of not less than 20 per cent of the
original delinquency less accrued in
terest and accumulated penalties,
he shall lose the right to redeem
and the law previous TO this pro-

MAY NPEACH
JUDGE LOWELL

WASHINGTON, a April Is. U.P)-
Impeachment proceedings were
threatened today against Federal
Judge James A. Lowell of Boston
who yesterday freed George Craw-
ford, Negro under indictment
in Virginia for the murder of the
two women.
Judge Lowell set extradition pro-
ceedingS aside on the contention
that it was useless to return CraW-
ford to Virginia. If he were con-
vlcted, the supreme court would
nullify the conviction because Neg
roes are not allowed to serve on
juries in Virginia, the judge ascert-
ed.
Rep. Howard Smith (Dem.) Vir-
GINA, representative in congress
of the district in which the MUIR
ders occurred, announced he would
place the matter before the house
judiciary committee and ask that
Impeachment proceedings be start
ed.
Smith contended that in an ex-
tradition case, only two questions
come properly before the court: Is
the indictment proper and is the
man before the court the person
named in the indictment? Repre-
sentative Beck (RepD Pennsylan-
ia, one of the foremost legal auth
critics n congress, supported
Smiths argument that Judge Low
ell exceeded his authority.

COLLEGE BILL
NEE IS DEFEAT

SACRAMENTO, April %. UP
The assembly late yesterday COM
pletely reversed itself and killed the
regional college bill, Al to 80.
Late this week, this same body
of legislators had approved the
bill. after a whirlWind debate.
The measure would nave changed
names of seven teachers colleges
in Chico, Fresno, Santa Barbara.
San Francisco, Arcata, San Jose
and San Diego, to state colleges" p
Teachers course requirements would
have been removed and the seven
schools empowered to grant regular
four-year university degrees.
Fight for the measure was led by
Assemblyman Lucius Powers, Fres-
no. He contended university edu-
cation was denied many youths un-
able to undertake expense of living
in Berkeley or Los Angeles. Opro-
nents of the measure ccntended the
regional college bill was merely an
opening wedge in what might
eventually be The utter breakdown
of the states centralized system OF
higher education.

AIRLINES PLAN
HUGE MERGER

LOS ANGELES, April 25. U.P)-A
merger of competing airlines which
will place major systems-United
General Aviation and America Air
ways-in control of the country IS
air lanes, was a possibility today
as stockholders prepared to pass up
on the projects, it was reported
from authoritative sources.
Lines figuring in the rearrange-
ment it was said are North Amer
lean Aviation, owning stock of
Transcontinental and Western Air
Express; General Aviation, Cen
eral Motors subsidiary, owning Eas-
tern Air Transport and 47la per
cent interest in Western Air Ex-
press; and United Air Lines.
Firmly entrenched and watching
with interest the proceedings, is
American Always, of which Errett
L. Cord, automotive manufacturer
recently gained control.
Should the reported merger plans
between Eastern Air Transport and
Transcontinental-W Air go
through, with the subsequent sale
of w. A. E. to United, it was point
ed out, the three lines left in the
field, none directly competing with
each other, would be United, Gen
eral Aviation and American Air
ways.

bond ISSUE
IS APPROVED
Constitutional Amendment Com
mittee Endorses Relief Bond
Measure.
By THOMAS b. MALARKEY
United Press Staff Correspondent


SACRAMENTO, April 25. - A
$20,0OO,000 unemployment relief
bond issue was a step nearer full
fillment today after the assembly
constitutional amendment commit
tee approved bills submitting such
an issue to the people at a special
election.
Prompt approval of the measure
in the assembly-the last legislative
hurdle-waS expected. Aware that
Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton funds will be cut short if CAL
ifornia doesn't take steps to care
for its own needy, legislators were
in no mood to withhold the propos-
ition from the electorate.
Under the administration of, a
state emergency relief commission
and Emergency Relief Director r.
C. Brandon, relief funds would be
disburSed to various counties. Loans
would automatically cease July L,
1885.
The state would recover its loans
out of the counties gas tax appor-
tionment. The proposal was ex-
pected to be submitted to the peo-
pie in June, if passed-and posi-
bility of its defeat in the legisla-
ture is practically negligible.
Hearing on the anti-capital pun
ishment bill before the senate judi
ciary committee last night was
postponed until Monday night.
Proponents urged the bill be put
over.
The state water conservation and
development program may face its
most critical point today. The SEN
ate was expected to vote on the
constitutional amendment empoW-
ering the state to undertake the
plan, first unit of which would be
the $160,000,000 elf-liquidating
great central valley unit.
Approval of the amendment-it
requires two thirds vote-was in
doubt. Earlier debate and votes on
amendments to the proposition, in
dicated it will win or lose by close
margin.
Eight thousand depoSitors of the
defunct Guaranty and Loan Asso-
citation of Los Angeles were denied
the right to sue the state for recov-
cry of less. A bill consenting tC
such a suit was tabled in the as
sembly committee.
A bill revising the present prim-
airy law, with return to the party
convention system of nominating
candidates for office, was sent tc
the assembly by the elections COM
mittee without recommendation.
The measure seeks to establish
party conventions for nominations
of state office candidates. Dele
gates to the state convention would
be named from precincts.

HEWES CONDEMNS SENDING OF
DELEGATION TO SACRAMENTO

In discussing the attitude Of the
majority of the Imperial Irrigation
district board in sending a large
delegation to Sacramento to lobby
against Senate Bill No. 912 Evan
T. HeWes of the board minority
said:
"Any reasonable differences that
might exist between the bill in its
present form and that desired by
the board could have been remedied
easily by communicating with Sem
ator Ben Hulse and ASsemblyman
S. f. Robinson
81 wonder how long the taxpay-
ers are going to approve of useless
expenditures of money which is
needed so badly for protecting and
maintaining the system at the pres
ent time.
"If the majority of the board
continues to vote in favor of these
useless expenditures and thinks that
there is a surplus existing in the
