ARIZONA
IN WASHINGTON
By BOB MERKLEY

There are headaches and nignt-
mares this week for Congressman
from the cotton-growing states. The
great cotton country of South
could, without doubt, draw up bill
entirely satisfactory to itself It's
problems have changed little in
generations, it's methods remain
constant through the years. But
there is another newer cottOn-p~o-
ducing area in our country 1t is
the Southwest.
In Southern California, Arizona
and West Texas there is a set OF
problems as distinctly removed
from the Old South as are those
states themselves. Not only is ir.i-
cation unknown to the southern
farmer, so is the problem of i'm
migration. Many people are leGv-
ing the South il search of new
beginning. They naturally turn to
the new cotton fields of the South
west, for cotton is the one thing
that they know best. A bill favor
able to the South could never be
bill for the West. They are too far
apart in too many ways.
AS this is written, what is to be
known as the Agricultural Adjust
ment Act of 1887 holds one undeni-
able victory for Arizona. There is
no restriction on long-fibred Gotten,
and Arizona grows all that is
grown in America. Congressman
Murdock haunted and bounded the
Committee during the formative
days of that bill, for the long-staIie
cause was Ariz0na's to champion
alone.
The seriousness of the problem
Of short cotton lies in its con
parative newness in Arizona and
other southwest arn states. The bill
as it stands today, calls for a 5e-
duction of acre. ge using the past
ten years as a basis for compu a
ton.
The early years of the decade are
going to drag down the avera 5e
for the southwestern states. Their
Congressmen have banded together
in a common CO use, but they can
not nope for mut d against an army
Of deep-south Il gislators bent a
taking back tc Dixie everythl g
they can get.

Use Of Radio To
Safeguard Rails

Southern Pacific will be the first
railroad to use short wave radio in
safeguarding train movements in
case of emergency, if applications
now pending before the Federal
Communications Commission re-
receive favorable action. The Com
mission has already granted con
struction permits, and initial con-
struction work has already been
started.
The proposed short wave system
would be placed in operation short
" after the first of the year in
the snowshed region where the
company's Overland Route crosses
the mile-high Sierra Nevada noun
tains, and would consist of two-way
telephone and telegraph communl-
cation to be used in emergencies
when line wires fail, railroad OIL
cials stated today.
First unit to be installed would
be a 500-watt transmitter and re-
ceiving equipment at Norden, and
a 5O-watt transmitter and receiving
equipment as mobile fire tralh
unit at Emigrant Gap.
Railroad officials pointed out that
with the addition of special emerg
encv radio communication service
TO present facilities, train move
ments through this district would
b protected with every known
modern device, under all weather
conditions.

Congressman Writes
On Cotton Control

The House Agricultural Commi-
ttee under the craftsmanship Of
Marvin Jones held no formal hear
ings on the farm Legislation which
the House now has under consider
alton, but numerous delegations
including a committee of three
representing the cotton growers of
Arizona, presented their case to
Chairman Jones, or their pleas to
a subcommittee having to do with
the drafting of the cotton section.
Congressman John r. Murdock
twice contacted members of the
subcommittee on cotton, request
ing two things for Arizona, namely,
that American Egyptian cotton be
unrestricted and that any future
acreage for new projects in this
State be based upon the acreage
of 1887, and that benefits based
upon yield should be averaged over
the last few years not to exceed
five. The Congressman pointed out
the Arizona situation in regard to
new lands recently planted to cot
ton here.
Congressman Murdock was in
clined to favor an amendment
which would aid all new lands in
their very earliest stage of develop
ment, whether they be irrigated
land or otherwise, and he felt that
such an amendment would have
better chance of acceptance. That
was one meaning of this amend
ment which he proposed on Dece-
mber /. Stated in its simplest form,
his proposed amendment would per
nit the cotton grower on any new
land to have an acreage for 1888
based on the 1897 acreage, if the
1897 acreage had been ten per
cent greater tnan such growers
average acreage for the five years
prior to 1887.
