The prestige of one of the

winner of more than 300 matches,
and with nary a defeat to mar his
brilliant European and American

however, will be backed by the
hundreds of feminine followers
who consider the Greek Adonis
the best-looking bone twister to hit
these parts since Ed Meske left for
California.
Casey, who halls from a family

This is despite the fact that an
other train bound for San Diego
leaves at 7 p m. daily, but here
tofore has not carried mail to in
tervening points.
Upon request of the committee,

Arizona Solves

PHOENIX, June % CUP) THE
problem of caring for Arizona's
temporarily unemployed migratory
workers will be solved to some ex-
tent by the Arizona unemployment
commission.
Frank H. Stapleton, acting eX-
ecutive director of the commission
said today arrangements had been
completed for an interstate benefit

migratory workers becoming un-
employed in Arizona can receive
unemployment compensation thru
state offices from any other state
in which they have accululated
benefits.
Stapleton said the workers would
use up wage credits in Arizona
first, then, if they had previously
worked in other states, they would
be eligible for payments in each

81 Millions Loaned By Government
For Publicly Owned Power Lines

WASHINGTON, June % tUP)
The committee of public utility ex-
ecutives today made public data
to show that the Public Works
Administration on April II, 1888,
had made loans and grants of
$54,911,756 for construction of IS
publicly y-owend power projects
which duplicate private facilities
in 21 states.
The total cost of the projects
was given as $63 POI, 191. In 28 in
stances, PWA made outright gifts
and the municipalities did not APP
ply for loans, the committee said.
The data was released without
comment. 1t was intended as re-
buttal to a statement made by

posed the inquiry group.
There is no evidence of any
real attempt on the part of local
unions or the Associated Farmers
of California or other organizations
representing the farmer producers
interests to come together for the
purpose of discussing and adjust
ing their mutual and inter related
problems" said the report. Had
this been done, we believe much
misunderstanding, bad feeling and
mutual hardship could have been
avoided"
The Investigators remarked on
the growing belief that in the long
run the farmer can market his
produce more economically by
avoiding San Francisco.
These causes did not originate
in the incidents between producers
and unions which were presented
for our immediate investigation.
They merely served to aggravate

least as far back as the maritime
strikes of 1884 and 1885, the re-
