The Elks' Traffic Safety Crusade

HIGHWAY accidents claimed the lives of 81 400 per-
sons last year in the United States and of these
1,8OO were members of the Benevolent & Protective
Order of Elks That that the equivalent of six
lodges were obliterated during the year. It may be
that you do not belong in that classification but there
are other classfications that might easily be made
Which would include you, the average citizen, the
menace is not something that afcts others and pass
es you by It was this thought perhaps which inspired
the new grand exalted ruler of Elkdom to signalizo
his administration Of the order by attempting to do
something measurable and concrete for the cause of
traffic safety. Consequently, on Nov the Elks of
the United States will lock antlers with this Haunting
menace to public safety Officials and members of the
14OO lodges will carry out traffic safety program
which will not only be solemn protest against this
needless sacrifice of human lfe with it's attendant
and deprivation for Others but will make def
mite contributions to the of safety.
We have never known the B. P O. E. to lend it's
sponsorship to cause that was not worthy and ur-
gent, and we have known it to default partici
patton in meeting public crisis whether in war or
in peace But fraternity is the ample yeast Of it's per-
petuity and it is not dependent on the stimulation of
propaganda activities and movements for attention;
when it emerges from it's coisered precincts there is
menace to be met distress to be succored sorrow to
be minstered to- public duty to be done It is in that
spirit that the Elks of the United States have enlisted
their legions in the of safety the highways
1t is good leadership and good cause, entitled to
the support Of everyone. (Tucson Citizen)

Bound To Get Results

such enthusiasm as displayed by the group Of men
at the business boosters banquet Tuesday night is
bound to get results if is not allowed to wane
What this city and county needs to go ahead is more
community spirit, more cooperation on the part of
everybody, and as Writ G. Bowman said in telegram
from Matador, Texas to The International "politcs
and partialty must be eliminated if the chamber Of
commerce is to be success
We were particularly interested in the remarks of
Steve Ochoa OF Tucson, of the speakers when he
told how the annual Tucson rodeo has grown and
what it has meant to Tucson. He attributed the ro
deos growth to the fact that AL Condron former Sec
retary of the Tucson chamber of commerce. "put his
heart and soul behind it,
What the rodeo has done for Tucson is an example
Of what the annual Elks Frontier Fiesta can do for
Nogales as it grows bigger and better each year
Eventually the local fiesta will take it's place along
side the Tucson rodeo among the greatest annual
events in the Southwest

Nogales Must And Will Grow!

IT was plainly brought out at the chamber Of com
merce banquet Tuesday night that the reason the
chamber is not getting results for Nogales is due to
lack of finances and lack of interest in chamber
affairs by the public in general
If enough money is raised to properly conduct the
chamber and if citizens in general throughout the
county can be induced to become members and take
real interest, Nogales will boom result

Thousands Of
Cotton Pickers
Needed In State

PHOENIX, Oct. 29-(UP)-The
state of Arizona can supply only
one-half the laborers needed in cot
ton fields to harvest a bumper crop
this season, it appeared today.
Farmers sent out calls for 10000
cotton pickers in addition to a
similar number now working in
fields.
Maricopa county farmers alone
placed orders for 4,625 workers.
Other estimates submitted were
Pinal, $500, Graham, 500, ano.
Pima, 1885.
In their frantic efforts to locate
field workers, farmers have re-
quested through the Arizona farm
bureau federation the Workers Pro-
gress administration release its
employees to do cotton picking. w.
j. Jameson, state director for the
WPA will take a formal proposal
into consideration soon, it is be-
ieveG.
The reason for the acute shortage
in Arizona fields is believed the de-
1ayed influx of cotton pickers from
Oklahoma, Texas and Arkansas.
Last year, approximately $4,000
workers came into the state to pick
cotton, figures show.
In an effort to aGd to the num-
ber now working in Arizona fields,
more than 1000 alienS-released by
WPA since July 1-have been noti-
fled by letters that the cotton pick
ing jobs are available.
From 1000 to 5000 Arizonians
regularly are available 70: the work.

per bushel. Prices in producing sec
tions were rather firm in late August.
Prices of grapes have been declin-
ing and are now generally below the

pected from the larger total produc-
ton, especially in California. Some
lots of eastern early blue grapes,
mostly Champions, have been selling
in New York at 40c to SOC per 12-
quart crate.
Late Potatoes Moving
Harvesting is active in many OF the
late potato producing sections, in
cluding New York, Pennsylvania, and
many Western and Mid-western
States. Early varieties from Maine
are appearing in Boston and New
York markets. Potato markets have
been dull and weak, except for re-
coveries, probably temporary. during
let-up in shipments caused by un-
favorable weather in producing sec
tions. Carlot movement became light
during the last week Of August.
Supplies from Long Island and
New Jersey continued moderate.
many arriving by motor truck. job
bing range of New Jersey stock in
eastern markets was irregular at
soc to s1.20 per 100 pounds. De-
mand varied from light to fairly ac-
tive. Prices at New Jersey shipping
points were about steady at soc to
S5c. some poor lots sold lower. Maine
potatoes were mostly lacking ma
turity and prices had not become
established.
Sweet potatoes sold slowly in
eastern markets under gradually in
creasing supplies. Eastern markets
quoted stock from Virginia, Mary
land and South Carolina mostly s1.75
to $3.50 per barrel. and 75c to s1.10
bushel pask. Tops of $1.25 were re-
ceived for Goldens from Virginia
Eastern Shore.
Onions Fairly Steady
Supplies of onions were moderate
in eastern city markets in late Au-
gust, demand slow. and prices fairly
steady at a jobbing range of 75c to
s1.10 per SO pounds for yellow stock
from eastern sources. A few mar
kets showed small price gains late
in the month.
Cabbage of the Danish variety ap-
peared in the New York market at
40c to 75o per so pounds. Liberal
supplies of main-crop cabbage are
in prospect. Eastern carrots sold
about unchanged at 75c to $1.15 in
several city markets. Western car
rots are in light supply and bring
81 to SIS per crate in some markets.
Eastern pears are increasing in
supply and consist mostly OF Clapps
Favorite and Bartlett. Those have
been selling In New York at $1.25
to s1.75 per bushel. California pears
show little change in price but trend
is downward for eastern stock.
The watermelon season Is drawing
to a close SO far as carlots are con-
cerned In eastern markets. The ma
jority of current shipments by rail
are from mid-western sources. Mis-
souri, melons are selling in some
eastern markets at Csc to 35c for
medium sizes. Receipts by truck
from Maryland and Delaware bring
