Speaking of Government Workers

Query was made yesterday in a
leading washington column as to
the total cost Of Resettlement's
experiments with art" among the
rural population. The answer, &C
cording to employees within Special
Skills Division. Of the new Farm
Security set-up, is. well over two
million dollars for "arty" furni-
:ture alone! That's the figure
quoted as spent in purchases Of
furniture for revamped farm
homes. of which 100000 worth al,
ready has been delivered to ware
sauses throughout the country for
resale to ''resettled" families on
time payment df they can keep
the payments up) Add cost:
Special Skills itself cost between
$500,0 and $4,000 since '35.
Add ironies: Much Of the furniture
designed by Farm 'Sechrity's "art
colony" broke in delivery; it's
, wondered how long it will last
when actually in use!

to 81 early Saturday, within one
degree of the lowest mark ever re-
corded during November in the bu-
reaus five year history. A record
breaking 33 was noted Monday
morning.
Before leaving for Coachella,
Woodrow G. Jacobs. meteorologist
for the federal fruit-froSt service in
Imperial, predicted another cold
night Saturday night He was un-
able to make a definite forecast
before late Saturday afternoon.
'Some spots have been nipped
by frost. but only slight damage to
crops has been reported so far,
Art Sinclair of the county agri-
cultural office, declared. young
peas, squash and tomatoes are
the most Icy to ue nit Little
damage can be done to lettuce, car
rots and squash he added.
Sinclair said it would take tenn
peratures of 30 or less for con-
siderable length of time to harm
crops.
Weather bureau records indicated
the valley is in for a colder than
normal winter. Minimum tempera
lures for November during the last
five years were: 1933-38; 1886;

clio. Demands
Democrats Purge
Hagues, Daveys

PITTSBURGH, Nov. II.
.(UP)-John L. Lewis, head
of the Committee for Indus
trial Organization, today de-
manded that the Democratic
party rid its house of Its Hagues
and Daveys' if it wants the con-
tinued support of organized labor.
He referred to Mayor Frank q
am the law Hague, of Jersey City,
N. j.. and former Gov. Martin L.
Davey, of Ohio Hague, Democra-
tic party chieftain, incurred the
wrath of CIO chieftains by thwart-
ing the work of their organizers in
New Jersey. Daveys action in or
dering out the troops during the
little steel strike brought about
its collapse.
Lewis said the CIO has adopted
a casual" attitude toward the de-
parture of the International Ladies
Garment Workers union from the
organization. Commenting at
press conference on the refusal OF
the union, headed by David Du-
oinsky, to send delegates to the
first constitutional convention OF
the CIO which opens here Monday,
Lewis said:
THE action of Mr.. Dubinsky has
been discounted for a year and
Aalf. Obviously the CIO has grown
to such proportions that the ad-
herence or adherence of one
lnion is relatively unimportant.
Lewis said he did not necessarily
regard the Republican victories in
the general elections as emphasize
ing the need of third party COM
posed of labor, the farmers and
progressives. But. he warned, that
is always an alternative if the
Democratic party fails to deal in
realities

Mexico Comedies
Payment for Land
Lost By American

MEXICO CITY, Nov. II.
(UP)-The Mexican land eX-
preparation dispute with the
United States was ended
amicably today when the gov
ernment delivered to the United
States an acceptance of proposals
looking toward payment of Ameri-
can claims
The land question had been dor
mant for many years but was re-
vived after the Mexican oil property
appropriation with indications that
the United States was concerned
over Mexico's practice of seizure
without immediate and definite
compensation.
The land question was settled on
basis favoring American LAND
owners, while MeXicans whose land
is seized continue to receive moth
ing for their property
The land question which was
directly in dispute involved some
SIS 100000 although that was only
a fraction of the total seizures.
