If you cannot get the right colors
for birds or flowers in mercerized
floss for your fancywork, try to use
mercerized thread. Use two strands
through the needle eye as you would
with floss to keep it from twisting.
You will not be able to work quite
so fast with thread, but you will
find it serves satisfactory otherwise.

The Hitch-Hikers

THE going is getting harder for hitch-hikers. ac
cording to recent survey by the Institute Of Pub
lie Opinion which indicates that 81 per cent of all
motorists pick up hikers, while the other 43
per cent say they do once in while, when condi
tiOns seem safe.
A majority Of car drivers questioned believe there
should be strict laws against hitch hiking, and II
states and the District of Columbia have such laws
now but it is admitted that enforcement is not very
rigid in most cases.
Nearly all motorists agree that the hitch-hker is
nuisance, but many too kind-hearted to refuse
to give them lift which they often do to their
row. One can seldom be entirely sure that person
who seeks to thumb ride is not criminal and the
only safe course is never to pick up a stranger.
The states with laws against hitch-hking at pres
ent are Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois,
Kansas, Maine, Michigan Minnesota New Jersey,
New York, North Carolian, North Dakota, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin

An Annual Celebration

THE Nogales international is pleased to note that
the Chamber of Commerce is showing an interest
toward making the Frontier Fiesta bigger and better
each year.
The C. of C. is becoming "fiesta minded" awaken
ing to the fact that big annual celebration should
be held here each year.
The fiesta has now been held three consecutive
years with the Elks Lodge sponsor each year. Sure
ly the Eks have more than done their part to keep
the fiesta alive and now it to that future fl
estas should be underwritten by group Of business
men and sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce, as
is done in Tucson and other places
The city owes vote of thanks to the pubhcspirit-
ed Eks for their work to date in behalf Of the fiesta
Not all Eks wanted the lodge to be the sponsors last
Year and this year but the majority ruled and the
lodge "put er across" brought hundreds OF visitors
to tht city, and stimulated business. '+->~.
NogaIes has natural setting for an annual cele-
bration. If NOgales ArizOna and Nogales, Sonora
would join together and get soldly behind the fiesta
the celebrations of future years would make those
Of 1886, 81 and 38, look like rehearsals.
In coming years the outstanding attraction should
be Spanish pageant and men and women, boys ana
girls then should be encouraged to "dress Spanish
A "days of '49" should be continued for those who
like that sort Of thing but perhaps it should be Sec
ondary to the main attraction.
The fiesta ending Sunday night was largely along
the lines of the first staged here in 1886 All conces
sions were managed by Nogales folks, the musical
revue was made up of Nogales boys and girls and the
Indian ceremonial dances put by Nogales Boy
Scouts True there were some things that bordered
on a carnival but that is to be expected at such
show There must be variety of events in any cee-
bration since some folks like thing and others
another.
Seventeen hundred people passed through the main
gate Saturday night. That's large number but only
a handful as to the number who would pass through
each night if pageant were held the main attrac-
ton.
Nogales should look forward to the day when hum
dreds of motor will pass through here trips
down the new west coast Of Mexico highway. To keep
those folks here for awhile is going to require enter
tanment and the fiesta each spring would be way
of entertaining.

CEDILLO SE|zED;
He FACES EXILE

MEXICO CITY, May 81 U.N.SO,
Exile for Gen. Saturnino Cedillo
was officially decreed today by the
Mexican government with the
formal announcement his revolt
against President Cardenas was
ended following an unofficial re-
port of Cedillo's capture.
The announcement of Cedillo'S
fate failed to confirm officially
the news he was taken prisoner,
although that came from an I'M
censored unofficial source - the
railroad telegraph.
Because of its origin, war de-
partment officials said they be.
lieved the report was probably
true. At the same time it was de.
clared President CardenaS was
"sternly opposed" to suggestions
that Cedillo be lined up before
firing squad as an example"
The war department announce
ment that exile awaited Cedillc
apparently took it for granted
that his abortive Today revolt
against CardenaS had ended in his
capture.

Defends
Lamb

NEW HAVEN. Conn, May 81
G.NS0-The pending disbar.
ment proceedings against Edward
Lamb, of Toledo, Ohio, executive
vice president of the National
Lawyers Guild and regional CLIO
counsel, have no legal basis, ac-
cording to an article in the cur
rent issue of the Yale Law Journal,
published today.
Lambs disbarment was recon-
mended by a committee of three
members of the Ohio bar as the
result of his courtroom conduct
in arguing for the denial of a
temporary restraining order
against union activities, sought by
the Williams Manufacturing Com
pany of Ohio.
After reviewing the case, the
article concluded that the charge
of moral turpitude" against
Lamb was unwarranted.
cat this late date vindication
of the court and punishment of
the offense could be adequately
achieved by a reprimand from
the court and an apology by
Lamb" the article said.

GOODYEAR FIRM
in PEACE PACT

AKRON, Ohio, May 81 0.N.S0
Members of the United Rubber
Workers of America today re-
turned to work in the East Akron
plants of the Goodyear Tire &
Rubber Co., ending a violent four
day strike.
Union members voted almost
unanimously to return to work
when negotiators told them the
company had agreed to work
toward a signed contract and had
conceded several points on griev-
anceS that caused the strike.
VOTE IS SECRET
Voting was conducted behind
closed doors in Akron Armory,
following an all-day meeting be-
tween a union negotiating COM
mittee and company officials.
The grievances causing the
strike were not primarily con-
cerned with wages, but had to do
with alleged violations of seniority
and transfer rules. The union
announced that 16 men, trans
ferred "out of turn" from one
department to another, would
go back to their original jobs.
At the union meeting both S. H.
Dalrymple, Information Union
president, and Allan S. Haywood,
New York regional director for the
c. O., urged acceptance of the
company offer.
80 PERSONS HURT
At least 80 persons were injured
when the strike broke Friday
morning and police and strikers
fought pitched battle outside the
Goodyear plants.
Instrumental in calling the
meetings and working out the
peace was James P. Miller, Cleve'
land regional director for the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board.
Also resuming operations today
is the B. F. Goodrich Company
whose plants we're closed by a
labor holiday" of United Rubber
Workers members.

Lottery Forfeiture Law
Discovered in Bay State

BOSTON, May 81 GNs).-Dis-
covery of an old law which pro-
vides forfeiture of all money won
in any kind of lottery today had
been brought to the attention OF
Attorney General Paul A. Dever.
Whether the long-forgotten
statute will be brought into action
to squelch gambling racketeers by
the States legal department or
any district attorney, who may
start proceedings, was not 1ndl
Gated.
BY invoking the ancient law,
action could be taken not only
against winners Of Irish and Cana
dian sweepstakes but against
winners of all other gambling
prizes such as the Federal Treas
ury balance and number pools.
The take" in all these in the Bay
State was estimated at $4,000, 0OO,-
900 year.
New York and a number OF
other States were said by legal ex-
perts to have a similar law on
their statute books.
In the past, Massachusetts, has
been content to collect the income
tax on the winnings while the Fe-
deral Government also took a cut.
Under the statute now brought to
light many millions of dollars that
have been collected by lotteries can
be taken from the winners and
turned into the State treasury.

FARM CONTROL
ACT is DEFENDED
BY \. A, TOLLEY
Says Public Misguided
By Industrial Board

GN.S) The Administration
through AAA Administrator H. A
Tolley, today charged the Nationa
Industrial Conference Board with
Iinjuriously misinforming the pub
lie on the design and operation Of
the 1888 agricultural adjustment
act.
In what was construed to be
categorical answer by Secretary
of Agriculture Wallace to a wave
of criticism leveled against the
act. Tolley sent a letter to the
powerful board.
TOLLEY'S LETTER
In the letter he declared:
ut is unfortunate that an
agency, purporting to be a repu-
table fact-finding and fact-dis-
pensing organization, should
distribute to the public such
gross misrepresentation of an
act of Congress. This is partic-
ularly true when this organiza-
ton is looked upon as being
representative of American bust
ness, and when good relation
ships between business and agri-
culture, so important to both,
are seriously injured by the dis
semination of misinformation OF
this kind"
Tolley flayed an article pub
lished in the Conference Boarc
Bulletin" on April IL, in which the
AAA act was analysed and riddled
it with charges that it was grossly
inaccurate.
CITES INACCURACY
Some of the inaccuracies" and
corrections" were listed as fol
lows:
ONE-To the boards charges that
the act grants the Agriculture
Secretary power to dictate and
control the practices Of each
farmer practically without
check;
THE act invests the Secretary
with no such power. 1t pre-
Scribes what acts he shall per
form and how he shall perform
them, in greater detail than has
any previous piece of genera.
farm legislation"
TWO.-To the boards statement
that the act gives the Secretary
the power of unlimited expendi
ture" of Government funds:
THE fact is that the agricultu
raj adjustment act of 1888 au
thoriZes the expenditure of only
such funds as may be appropri
ated by Congress for its execu
ton"
THREE-To the charge that thu
Secretary may, at any timt
during the course of the year
change the marketing quoti
originally determined upon"
1.-THE actual fact is that the
Secretary of Agriculture has no
discretionary authority whatever
to impose marketing quotas or
to revise them downward"
