The heavy yes" vote rolled up

The pension plan provided the
state with one of the most colorful
campaigns in the states history.

it. ii was believed to have helped
him TO election over Philip Ban

Officials of the pension plan Or
ganization today refused to con-
cede defeat of the ham and eggs
plan at yesterdays election. and
called a council of war for this
afternoon to consider plans to seek
a special election on the issue.
Sherman J. Banbridge, director
of the California pension plan,
sponsor of ham and eggs. said at
noon that the organization still
would not concede defeat of the
proposition. He insisted it was only
10 per cent behind and that it
would eain enough by "the strong
rural vote which has not been
counted" to give it victory.
Both propositions calling for
leasing of state-owned tidelands for
oil drilling apparently were over
whelmingly defeated. No. TO- spon-

SAN FRANCISCO, Calf, Sep
tember % (SpeciaD-With only
eleven days from September 18th
left for filing applications for Pub
lie Works Administration grants
and loans, it was announced today
by Kenneth A. Goodwin, PWA Reg

quests for Federal funds had been
received at Regional Headquarters

The total amount of money ask
ed by the four states comprising
this California, Arizona,
Utah and Nevada-is $183, 25,545,
which, he added, is considerably
more than Public Works Admins
traitor Harold L. Ickes could allot
if the other A states of the Union
are to get their share.
Of this total, $146, ,348,957 is ask
ed in the form of outright grants
while the applications for loans
amount to $36,776,588. These 1888

Osborn Thanks
Local Voters

Provoked because of an editorial
squib in the local Republican pa
per 9, few days ago which said that
Sidney P. Osborn in the last weeks
issue of his paper, ".Dunbar's Week
ly," should have thanked Santa
Cruz County for giving him a ma
jority at the recent primary, Mr..
Osborn, who pas ed through here
Tuesday enroute to Phoenix from a
few days rest at Guaymas, said:
you may say that I came here
personally to thank the people OF
Santa Cruz County"
It is very doubtful that Mr.. Os-
born had anything to do with the
publication of Dunbar'S Weekly
last week or for one or two weeks
prior to then, for he was a very
busy man campaigning prior to the
primary and also too tired for sew
eral days after the election to think
of working on a newspaper.
He told The International that
he deeply appreciates the fact that
he carried Santa Cruz County and
also said he now wants his friends
to get solidly behind Bob Jones,
Democratic candidate for governor,
in the fall campaign. He was one
of the first to congratulate Mr..
Jones and to assure him of his full
cooperation this fall.

What The Word
'Sudeten' Means
Geographic Society
Explains Term

NEW YORK, Sept. 23-An ex-
planation of the seven-letter word
Sudeten - pronounced Soo-DAY-
ten) comes today from the National
Geographic Society.
So old is the word that its
origin is not known. The Ency-
clopedia Britannica does not list it.
Natioal Geographic Society ex-
plains it thus:
"The geographic term Sudeten
properly applies only to a short
range of mountains along the
northern border of Czechoslovakia.
German-speaking people of this
area, however, organized a political
party joined by most of the g.
100000 of them in Czechoslovakia.
Now it refers to all German-speak-
ing people near the border.

County Fair
ToBe A
Big Event

Arrangements are nearing COM
pletion for the annual Santa Cruz
County Fair and Rodeo to be held
at the Sonoita fair ground on Sat
urday and Sunday October 80.
From all indications this year. S
affair will be the greatest and the
largest attended ever held at So
noita for the reason that in con-
nection with the fair and rodeo
will be held, for the first time, q
livestock show and a horseshow
during the two days.
The livestock show and horse
show are made possible as a result
of well drillers striking water on
the fair grounds. At a depth Of 285
feet Wednesday it was found the
drill was in 85 feet of water, and
drilling will continue until depth
of 300 feet is reached.
The stock show will be staged in
a big tent, 80 by 100 feet, almost
as large as a Barnum & Bailey cir
Gus tent, and anybody wanting to
exhibit stock should notify either
R. C. Larimore or H. B. Thurber
of Sonoita or L. W. Klene of Elgin,
not later than October 5th, the
sooner the better.
