Dale Cooper will give Ivan Lewis
another boxing lesson. Cooper's

Ivan to overcome.
Ray Rogers and Ken Jones will
leap at each other at the opening

four rounds with Rogers holding the

Receipts Larger
Than Expenditures

WASHINGTON, July 27-(AP)-
Reports by five New Deal lending
agencies that repayments had eX-
ceeded new Ioars since July 1 to-
day where shown at the treasury to
have kept the deficit at a figure
far below that en- the same date

In computing both the figures
for the deficit and for "recoV-
cry and relief" for publication
in the treasury's daily state
ment, officials revealed that
the excess of repayments had
been deducted from amounts
spent by other branches of the
government to produce net
totals.
The RecOnstrU cton Finance Cor
poraton, the Commodity Credit
Corporation. the Farm Credit Ad-
ministratiOn, the Agricultural Ad-
justment Administration (seed and
feed loans) and the Export-Import
banks. the figures showed, have re-
ceived $242,518,923 more in repay
ments than they have expended in
new loans.
Other emergency agencies have
spent $26S,949,515, but the daily
statement, presenting q new figure,
deducted the excess of rep yments
and totaled expenditures for ere
covery and relief" at $26,43O,59S
On the same date a wear ago the
figure was $3O7,329,154.

New Style Bills
For Hello Service
Inaugurated Here

A new and improved method Of
issuing telephone bills will be intro
duced in Coolidge in the near
future according to an announce
ment made today by Willie McNatt,
manager of The Mountain States
Telephone and Telegraph Company
here.
Under the present practice OF 1s-
suing bills, all telephone state
ments for Arizona are issued on the
first of each month. A distribution
of billing will now be made so that
bills will be issued throughout the
month in six equal groups. Each
subscriber will receive but one bill
a month after the new plan is ef-
fective, but mailing will be made
on a different date than formerly.
There Will be no change i'll the
August 1 bill but the next state
ment lecivcd by subscribers will
introduce the new arrangement.
"The adoption of the plan, known
as Rotation Billing, will enable US
to provide better service to our
customers" Mrs. McNatt explained.
For example, under the present
practica. with all bills issued on the
first of the month, charges for long
distance calls are included only up
to the 21st of the preceding month.
The new plan will permit the
inclusion of all charges and credits
I'D to the date of the bill. The ap-
pearance of the bill itself also will
be improved.
The change to the new plan in
Coolidge will be made September
ii and in the future all local tele-
phone bills will be dated the 18th
of each month. No bill will be issu-
ed September l, but the September
II bill will bring all charges and
credits up to date. Each bill there
, after will cover normal charges.
After the new plan is established,
actual mailing OF bills will be made
within six business davs after the
billing date. The local office OF
the telephone company will be glad
to answer any questions subscribers
may wish to ask.

Wood Industry In
Arizona Furnishes
Jobs To Many

ALBUQUERQ n. M, July 20
Strange as it may seem to the un-
initiated the lumber and wood
products in dustry in Arizona is
the product of one of the greatest
natural resources of the state.
Due to the fact that most high
ways and railroads naturally follow
the valleys and lowlands, visitors
through the state see little of the
timber and woodlands that exist in
the higher regions.
Over Ga million board feet of
lumber alone were cut from the
forests of Arizona in 1884, data
showed, which was compiled by
the Bureau of Census in coopera-
ton with the U. S. Forest Service.
Distribution was made to 25
states.
Over Al million board feet were
used locally by the people of the
state. In addition many cords of
wood, not classified as lumber, and
a considerable number of poles,
were taken.
The Regional Forester's Office,
here, pointed out that this in
dustry offers the sole support for
thousands of families within the
state, and it is in view of this great
importance of timberlands that so
much emphasis is placed on forest
fire prevention.
If the forested lands were allow
ed TO be burned over, destructively
cut, or otherwise exploited and de-
stroyed, thousands would be thrown
out of work and erosion from
mountain slopes would cause seri-
Gus flood conditions, probably caus-
ing untold damage to property in
the lowlands.
On the National Forests of the
state emphasis has been placed by
the Forest Service on fire preven-
ton, and the areas have been care.
fully supervised as to grazing and
timber cutting.
When the timber on the National
Forests is to be logged, a forest Of
ficer marks the trees to be cut,
taking the mature and over-mature
timber only. The immature stock
and ample number of seed trees are
| left in order to insure a cut again
in the years to come.
The grazing problem is faced in
the same way. Only sufficient
livestock to harvest the yearly sur
plus of grass is allowed to Craze
thus preserving the basic grasses
for reproduction the next year.
These methods of controlling the
crops furnished by the National
Forests are called by the Forest
Service and Sustained Yield Plans

ployment for thousands of persons
