Welcome Delegates;
Tea at White House

In cooperation between nations,
between individuals and between
producer and consumer lies the
future well-being of humanity
more than 5000 delegates to the
third triennial conference of the
Associated Country Women of the
World were told today by Mrs.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, Secretary
of State Cordell Hull and Secre.
tary of Agriculture Henry Wallace.
After registering at the Federal
Auditorium in the New Labor
Building, the women, represent
ing virtually every country in the
world, assembled at Constitution
Hall where Mrs. Alfred Watt, Of
Vancouver Island, Canada, presi.
dent of the conference, formally
opened the five-day meeting.
Greeted By Hull
introduced by Miss Grac q.

States Hostess Groups, Secretary
of State Hull greeted the women

operation"
-EnviSaging a vastly higher
level of wel-being for everybody
everywhere than has ever been
known in history" Mr.. Hull as
serted that the goal could only be
reached through peaceful and
sincere" cooperation. He added:
Unfortunately, i'm recent
years, especially in the sphere
of international relations, such
cooperation has frequently been
only sporadic and precariOus."
Secretary Hull laid the worlds
present unhappy state to
greed, unfriendliness and short
sightedness in international relap
tons"
All NeighbOrs
Asserting that individuals and
nations are all neighbors, though
not all good ones, Mr.. Hull
stated:
"a nation ceases to be q good
neighbOr when, by taking o
shOrtsighted view Of its own
best interests, it seeks to isolate
itself from other natiOns-aS
well as when it attempts, BY
force or by guile, to impose its
will upon Others"
A plea to throw off the fetish"
OF oVerwork characteristic Of
pioneer countries was sounded by
Secretary Wallace, who proph-
eSied:
1--WE shall see that it pays to
sow less and take better care Of
crops, and take better care Of
ourselves and our children. We
shall learn to rest part Of the
land and to rest ourselves part
of the time. %
The economic goal for agricuL
ture was described by Mr.. Wal.
lace as increased balanced pro.
duction of the things we all real
ly need and want. This produc-
ton, he said, should be at prices
low enough for consumers to buy
yet high enough for producers to
stay on the job; there should be
due regard at the same time for
conservation Of natural resources,

Application Blanks
Given Scoutnasters
By Local Executive
ingtOn, D. c. Next Year Councils Financing Vast
Undertaking Themselves Officials Optimistic

Though the annual trip of Mat
tatuck Councils Jamboree troop
will not take place until next sum-
mer, the first work Of preparation
has begun. Application blanks
have been sent to scoutmasters of
all troops in the local council by
Scout Executive David r. Babson.
A group Of Waterbury Boy Scouts
will make the two week trip to
Washington, D. c., next year and
advance reports indicate that the
National Jamboree win be one of
the best ever held under the di-
rection Of the Boy Scouts.
To visualize the extent of the
work Just begun, one might imagine
the Jamboree grounds as a city
comprising IS small villages. Each
village" will house sectional
camp Of "a Jamboree Troops each
having IS Scouts and three lead
ers. Together with the sectional
leaders each Village" will house L.
260 persons.
Each section will have its own
commissary disbursement depot,
like a country store; its own post
office and its own trading post"
where souvenirs post cards, ice
cream, films and the like may be
purchased and where laundry may
be deposited. Each sectional camp
will have its own hospital with a

complete medical staff, and food
depot in q 40 by 80 tent where
trucks will leave the Scouts enor-
nous food supply. Deliveries Of
perishable foods will be made twice
daily TO insure freshness.
Special Water Supply
The "Jamboree City" will have
its own water supply. Eight miles
Of mains will bring a million gall
Ions Of water daily from three wa
ter sources in the District Of Col
umbia and nearby Virginia. Every
precaution will be made to safe
guard the health of those at the
JaInboree.
An intensive system of pre-fabri-
cation will be used. All wood struc-
lures, whether showers, railing, ia
bles, or duck boards will be cut and
assembled in panels at the factory
and shipped to the Jamboree sites
for immediate erection. This saves
working time and cuts waste to q
minimum.
The "Jamboree City" will be con-
nected with the outside world
through 15-trunk- line switchboard
at the general headquarters. Eighty
lines from this board will connect
the sectional camps as an internal
communication artery every hour
of the day. In addition, each Sec
tional camp will have its own pay
station phone. Through special
communications division, parents
in distant cities will be able to
speak to their sons within a few
minutes no matter where they
might be located on the Jamboree
grounds.
General headquarters will con-
tain main post office, main hos
pital and ambulance staff and tele-
graph offices for ordinary tele-
grams and press dispatches. Many
newspapers will be represented by
Scout correspondents and the
Scouts themselves will publish a
daily newspaper Of $4,000 circula-
ton.
Financed BY Scouts
The Jamboree will be financed
by the Scouts themselves through
a nominal fee to cover the food,
other essentials and the costs of
preparing the Jamboree site. The
Jamboree replaces the one sched-
uled for August 1885 which had to
be cancelled by President Roosevelt
due to health conditions In states
near the capital when the site was
95 per cent complete.

The simple announcement that
members of the Holy Name So
ciety of the Church Of the Blessed
Sacrament were planning their
annual smoker proved sufficient
to achieve two results-an eager
ness on the part of talented en-
tertainers to take part and a flood
of assurances from various Holy
Name units that delegations would
be in attendance.
The popular affair will be staged
next Monday evening in the par
ish hall on. Robbins street. Freddy
Hall, the inimitable Freddy, will
be master of ceremonies and he's
a whole show in himself. There
will be sevgeral fast bouts, song
and dance specialties and refresh
ments. Anyone familiar with
the success of previous efforts Of
the society to entertain need no
further guarantee that the COM
ing smoker will be one Of the best
staged in years.

Tax Rate Not Holding Town Back

"Under reasonable rate the people will build
new homes" says friend of ours in commenting on
the tax rate of S6 for Nogaans for the fiscal year
of 1867.
We do not believe that the tax rate is the reason
building has been at standstill in this city for
eral years.
The new combined Phoenix rate is $6.46- just a
few cents under the Nogales rate. The Phoenix is
38 cent increase over last years rate. Tucsons new
rate too, is about as high as Nogales.
If six dollar rate can be classed as high it does
not halt building construction at Phoenix and Tue
son. where hundreds of new homes are being erected
each year and never etup in erection of structures
in the business district
Something else is keeping people from building
in Nogales and believe it is principally the lack
of confidence by folks in the future OF this CITY,
Since we lost the army post, and Nogales, So
nora ceased to be the only oasis for Arzonans after
the American prohibition amendment was repealed,
folks are laborng under the mistaken idea that
Nogaes is through and ultimately will become rail
road whistlng post.
The army post loss has been offset to large ex-
tent by establishment of the transient camp in this
city and the expenditure by the federal government OF
hundreds Of thousands Of dollars at this point
Repeal of the dry amendment hurt the city Tor
awhile but last winter the number OF tourists com
ing to the border and patronzing cabarets and euro
stores in Nogaes Sonora, and hotels and cafes IN
Nogales, Arizona, far surpassed the number coming
here when Nogales Sonora, was looked upon as an
oasis
If persons who are able to do so, would help the
town get some desirable Torrent houses and apart
,~,o~+e Nogales would go forward. There is serious
house shortage in Nogales now and no community
can expect to attract new settlers if there is place
to put them when they come to town.

City Employees Not Being Paid Too Much

Our friend, City Alderman A. w. Lohn-we con-
slider him friend and good one at that, notwith-
standing we disagree with him occasionally in city
matters-seemed to think this paper did him an in
justice when it practically stated editoraly last week
that he always votes with Mayor Bettwy.
Mr.. Lohn, in conversation this week with the
editor Of The International denied he always stands
by the Mayor at council meetings. "Just because I
hanpen to be a friend Of the Mayor doesn't mean I
will always stand by him if he's wrong" said the
alderman.
While the new city budget being put to-
gether Mr. Lohn said he not against retrenching
in every possible manner except salary cuts.
Il was opposed to salary cuts from beginning to
end IF there was nothing else to cut in the budget
except salaries then surely the budget can't be too
high" said Alderman Lohn.
"If you cut the salary of the street superinten-
dent who is now getting $3.50 a month, would he be
more efficient? If he resigned could you get any
to take the position at $1OO month";, he asked
After looking over the cty's salary list this week.
The International agrees with Alderman Lohn, and
also Mayor Betwy, in their stand against wage cuts
CITY employees are not being paid too much. Any
employee-city or otherwise is entitld to living
wage. And right now, all know that living costs
are soaring.
In his conversation with the editor of this paper
Alderman Lohn said he has always favored the num-
Der of policemen being limited to eight. We agree
with him there Eight good policemen at 500
month is far better than larger number at $50 or
SIS month
