all dealers are urged to get their
licenses before February l.

POSTAGE
LAW EXPIRES

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22-One of
the first big jobs which Congress
is trying to get out of the way is
the continuation and extension of
some of the emergency legislation
which expires by limitation in the
course of the next few weeks.
Three bills are under way, one
extending until June 80, 1889, the
lending authority of the R.F.C. and
some of the other federal lending
agencies; second extending to
the same date the Presidents dis
cretionary power to devalue the
dollar and continuing the two bill
lion dollar currency stabilization
fund; the third continues for the
same period the authority OF the
Federal Reserve bank system to
issue currency notes against gov
ernment securities.
One of the other laws which eX-
pires on June 80 this year unless
Congress reenacts it is the three
cent postage law. All the indica-
tions are, however, that this will be
reenacted.

NOGALIAN IS
RECOGNIZED AS
COMMITTEEMAN

Formal recognition of Writ G..
Bowman of Nogales and Mrs Sam
uel White of Phoenix as commit
teeman and committeewoman from
Arizona, was accorded the two by
the Democratic national committee
in Washington Thursday.
The committee rejected the
claims of R. G.. Langmade of Phoe-
nix and Mrs. Eleanor Mccoy of
Yuma to the positions.
A report of a subcommittee said
that Langmade and Mrs. Mccoy
were named to the positions by an
"unofficial' convention which met
after the regular state convention
in Tucson adjourned without max
ing nominations.
The report recommended that
Bowman and Mrs. White be seated
under the rule providing that both
members shall serve until their sue
cessors are elected.

Lak9r Situation
Worrying Congress

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22-The Ia
Dor situation is giving Administra-
ton and Congressional leaders a
great deal of concern. While every
practical politician wants to go on
record on every possible occasion
as being a friend of labor none of
them wants to be forced into tax
ing sides as between the two ma
jor factions into which organized
labor is now split.
The effort of John Lewis's c. l.
o. to force General Motors to rec
ognize his union as the sole bar
gaining agency with its employees
is in conflict with the American
Federation of Labor, which has a
strong and very active lobby always
at work on Capitol Hill.
The understanding here is that
Mr.. Lewis did not intend to start
the General Motors strike until
Spring, but the local leaders got
out of hand and went ahead WITH
their sit-down strikes before all the
plans of strategy had been perfect
ed.
1t is also the understanding here
that it was never the intention OF
the C. I. o. to cripple the whole
automobile industry. The strike was
aimed at General Motors.

CASA GRANDE, Jan. % - Earl
Thode, former world champion cow

rider that ever famed a bucking
cayuse, still retains the skill that
put him at the top of bronc riding
contests won at Calgary, Can., Tue
son, and other big rodeos in 1886.
He knows how to handle show
just as we'll as he does a mean
bronc, and that accounts in a
large measure for the tremendous
success of Casa Grande's Cowboy
Days last year. So Earl is again
Arena Director for theCasa Grande

the participation of rodeos best
performers from all parts of the

FRONTIER NIGHTS DISCUSSION
TAKES UP MOST OF TIME AT
LUNCHEON OF LIONS CLUB
Presley Cheshire Says Business Men Favor Holding
1t Again; c. of c. May Handle 1t If Elks Do
Not Care To Be Sponsors

Presley Cheshire told members of
the Lions Club at their luncheon
Tuesday noon that on behalf of the
Elks Lodge he has contacted quite a
number Of business men here the
past few days and all seem to think
it would be a great thing for No
gales to have another Frontier
Nights celebration this spring
Discussion of Frontier Nights
took UP most of the time at the
luncheon and was prompted when
a member of the club disclosed that
the Elks, sponsors of the first show
last year, appear to be lukewarm
about tackling the job again this
year.
Cheshire told the Lions that the
business men he has seen will lend
the Elks their moral support.
Lion Paul Arend, who is also an
Elk, said that the Elks feel it is
too big an expense to undertake
like they did last year and that the
lodge has appointed committee of
three to find out what the COM
munity thinks of it and if is staged,
would the Elks have the support
of the whole town. Frontier
Nights, so far as the Elks are con-
cerned, is now more or less up in
the air." Arend declared.
Would Help C. of C.
DR.. zenas Noon suggested that
the Chamber Of Commerce take
over the celebration, in case the
Elks do not decide to sponsor it.
''The chamber needs money and
profits accruing from such cele-
bration would help the chamber, "
he said. why doesn't everybody
get together and boost Frontier
Nights and not leave it up to just
one organization?' he asked.
Herman Medlin. secretary of the
Elks, said the lodge is interested
in acting as sponsors alone only un-
til the indebtedness of about $1,000
on the Elks building is paid off.
The Lions will pass resolution
assuring the Elks of their whole
hearted support, if the Elks decide
to sponsor the show again.
Other discussion at the luncheon
concerned housing, tax rates, and
assessed valuation, r. T. Frazier
declared that harping about the tax
rate has kept some persons from
building homes. He said that the
rate in Tucson is as high as that
here, yet hundreds of new homes
are being built in Tucson each
year. He also declared that pro-
perty in Tucson is assessed much
higher than it is here.
j. D. Jones pointed out to the
Lions that in this locality only 25
radios are on the assessment lists.
Surely there's more than Is radios
here" he declared.
Jack Lee urged all Lions to join

CONGRESS PLUGS HOLEIN
NEUTRALITY ACT OF 1886

WASHINGTON, January q (Au-
tOcaSter) The new Congress
started off under a full head of
steam by enacting a resolution
plugging a hole in the neutrality
act of last year.
There was nothing in the old
law to prevent any American from
selling war supplies to either party
in civil war such as is now going
on in Spain. The State Department
had been compelled to grant Ii
cenSes for the export of several
million dollars worth of second
hand airplanes and engines which
had been sold to the Spanish reb-
els by a Brooklyn dealer who had
bought them at United States
army auction.
These munitions had already
been loaded on ship when Con-
gress convened. The effort of the
new Congress was to rush the new
law through in time to prevent the
ship from sailing. Congress was not
quick, enough. However, it is now
the law that hereafter no Ameri-
can may supply arms to anybody
taking part in a civil war, anywhere
in the world.
There is distinct feeling in
Washington that the State Dtpart-
ment is worried about the European
war outlook. Signs are numerous
that large scale international con-
flict is brewing in Spain. This
country NAV not become involved,
