able to operate until completion OF
the All American canal. The orig
inal schedule for the completion OF
the canal provided for the availablli-
w of power late in 1899 or in the
early spring of 1910 However, pres
ent indications are that water, not
exceeding 1900 second feet, may
be available about the end of 1910
ana 1t is possible there will not
be sufficient water to make the
plants operative until l94l. Contin-
uous power supply from this source
cannot be assured for some time
thereafter until the canal has been
seasoned
Several alternatives faced district
directors. chief of which was en-
largement of the Brawley plant to
take care of demand until the canal
IS ready to assume the load At the
time the BraWley plant plans were
originally drawn they provided for
a 5000 gross XIV. capacity, but
insufficient funds have never per-
mitted building up to this point
II was also learned. however,
that work is proceeding rapidly upor
a power line from Parker dam TO
Phoenix and as soon as this is COM
plete line will be run to Vails-
Durg, Ariz., near Yuma. II is pos
sible the line may be continued
into Imperial Valley and with ap-
proval of the Bureau of Reclama-
ton could be used to tide the district
over.
The third alternative would be to
wait, hoping that the All American
canal plants will be operative in
time TO assume the load.

Anxious to inform citizens of
the United states that her coun-
try is not just part of South
America" but one of IL inde-
pendent nations.
Miss Aratuz' enthusiasm zoomed
when she hit upon the subject of
her own country.
"A feeling of friendship between
Argentina and the United States is
growing rapidly. OF course there
was somehow do you say it?-
friction but that is disappearing
r there were trouble. war. the Unit
ed States could count on Argen-
tina.
If my country trades with Great
Britain or Germany instead Of the
United States. do not think that we
have lost regard. Remember, we
cannot accept your goods unless
YOU accept oursl It is so much
easier to pay with our own products
than with money!
Miss Aratuz described her home
city of Buenos Aires as strikingly
modern.
IF you were suddenly dropped
there you would think you were
in Paris!" she said There are
wide boulevards and classic build
ings and even new subterranean
automobile parking lot maintained
at public expense. (She became
somewhat confused giving the lots
size, changing kilometers into miles,
but anyhow it is huge)
The people are of Spanish eX-
traction and speak that language,
but Miss Aratuz didn't have to eX-
plain that. Her accent as we'll as
her eyes, hair and flashing teeth
beat her to it.
Women do not vote in the Argen-
tine and they appear perfectly con-
tent to remain so,
IF there is a suffrage movement
it is we'll suffocated. . =" she said
and laughed.
Women are much protected
there. They do not go in for
careers and they do not discuss
politics"
However, times are apparently
hanging there for she admitted
that attending a college would have
been fowned upon for a girl a
couple of decades ago, while 1t is
accepted now.
The social order, so far as young
people is concerned, is about as it
was in the United States in the
gay COS. Young folk go more in
crowds to the club or to parties.
Or they gather at homes.
II wouldn't think of going witt
different boy each night" she
'onfided.
Thee are no chaperons but fire.
quently parents accompany their
children to parties, not to protect
the youngsters but to have a good
time themselves.
You see, the mothers have neith-
~ bridge clubs nor PIT. A. nor

activities that mothers have here
to occupy them. So they enter
into the social life with their chill
dren.
u think that is nice? Don't you?'
The eyes had it.

Few Workers Checking
Social Security Accounts

Fewer than one-seventh of one per

ments showing the wages credited tc
the accounts of these individuals dur
ing 1887 according to Mr.. Edwin V
Faulhaber, manager Of the Social Sc
curity Boards field office in Youngs.
town, Ohio.
"Our office now has post cards
which workers may use to get state
ments of credits on the wage records
of these individuals for 1887" Mr.
Faulhaber declared. "But our records
show that fewer than $4,000 Of the &c.,
TIA 900 workers for whom accounts
has been established up to last June
has asked for wage information.
''In only a few cases, according tc
reports from Washington, has the Blu

who believed that the wages credited
to their accounts were less than they
should be. In those few instances wher
discrepancy is indicated, the Bureau
Immediately begins a search, usually
through the field office, for the report
ed missing wage items"
Mr.. Faulhaber added that during
1888, employers throughout the coun.
try, according to information received
from Washington, not only filed then
wage information reports more
promptly than they did in 1887, but
also uSad much more care i'm identify.

paid. During the first year." he said
"a considerable number of wage infor
nation reports filed by employers con
tanned wage items which, because OF
lack Of identifying information, coulC
not be posted Immediately to the prop
er accounts. These difficulties were
due in the main to the fact that some
employees had failed to furnish theiI
employers with their account mum

Death Of E.G.H Hall
Mourned by Labor
Was President Of Minnesota
State Federation For
"a Years

(AFLWNS).-The American organ
lied labor movement suffered pro-
found loss in the recent death of +. G.
Hall, former president of the Mime
sofa State Federation of Labor, who
passed away in Minneapolis after a
lingering illness extending over three
years, at the age of 70.
He was born in Canada and had
lived in the United States more than
so years.
Mr.. Hall was pioneer in the organ
lied labor movement of Minnesota. Ac-
tive in the labor movement for num-
Der Of years before 1895, he attended
his first convention of the State FEEDER
alton of Labor that year and kept up
this record until 1888, when he was UNI
able because of illness to go to the
Mankato convention.
He was elected secretary of the
Executive Council of the State Fedora
ton of Labor in 1896, the council itself
naming this executive officer at that
time.
In 1911 he was elected president of
the State Federation, in which office
he served continuously for "a years
He resigned in 1885 because of failing
health.
Mr.. Hall was a member of the Cigar
Makers Union of Minneapolis for more
than half a century. He was vice presi-
dent of the Cigar Makers International
Union of America for many years
holding this position at the time Of his
death.
In addition to his valuable activities
directly connected with the labor move
ment, he served as Assistant Commits
sioner of Labor under the administra-
ton of the late Gov. John A. Johnson
This was prior to the time that Mime
sofa had the present industrial com
mission.
When Mr.. Hall became president of
the State Federation of Labor, there
were less than $4,000 union men and
women in the State. At the time of
his death the union membership had
increased to approximately $4,000.
He was a pioneer in legislation for
the benefit Of the workers, and many
of the Minnesota laws for the protec-
ton of wage earners are now on the
statute books of the State because of
his efforts.
In commenting on his demise the
Minneapolis Labor Review, official or
gan of the Central Labor Union of
Minneapolis, said:
"As death came to bring its dream
less sleep what a satisfaction it must
have been to know that his life had
been spent in bettering, in making
brighter the lives of the workers, in
sowing the hope of time when power
ty would be banished, economic secur-
ity would be the lot of all, and human
kindness would transmute hate into
enduring brotherhood"
In tribute to the memory Of Mr.
Hall the Minnesota Union Advocate
official organ of the st. Paul Trades
and Labor Assembly, observed:
"The milestones of human progress
have always been the tombstones OF
those who lived to serve mankind, anc
certainly it can be said that George
Halls tombstone represents one more
degree on that measure of Time that
marks neither the beginning nor the
ending of accomplishment"
