There will be considerable DAM

clared. The warm weather and

He estimated that the rain will

is expensive and hard to get, he
said, and the growers will have
to hire men to feed and care for
the stock. Livestock must be taken
from pastures and fields after rains
so they will not damage it by

Schools Start
Vacations
Ahead Of Time

An estimated drop OF 81 10 4V
per cent in high school attendance
in the Ell Centre schools during
the first three days of this week
was given as the contributing fac
tor for the schools advancing the
holiday vacations three days, Super
intendent G.. A. Weakley, said Nom
day morning.
The original holiday period was
TO run from December % to Janu-
airy 3, inclusive. Pupils were ad-
vised Monday morning that vaca-
ton had started and school would
resume Jan. 3.
The advancement, due to attend
ance drop, was caused by three
factors, Superintendent Weakley
said A number of students are en-
ployed for the pre-holiday week,
the week end rains would cause
many to be unable to attend, and
the mild flu epidemic already has
caused a large drop in registration
figures. Z.
If the attendance drops too far,
Superintendent Weakley said, the
schools will lose a large amount
of the state apportionment which
is based on attendance records.
Rather than that we have decided
to extend the school term a week
in June. We could teach Saturdays
but there too we run up against
the difficulty of attendance as so
many pupils have Saturday employ
ment, he said. +,

straight-tlnr rales, exempted the
railwa" employees.
Barred VIEWS
President Roosevelt told a press
conference last summer that ne
saw no reason why overtime for
rail employees should begin after
48 hours when it started after 40
hours in other industries.
It was understood that an over
time rate could be applied easily
to members of the Switchmens
union. Members of the other four
unions generally work on a mileage
rate and could receive a compar-
able raise by increasing their rates
eight per cent. Such an increase
for operating employees would
amount to an average raise OF about
eight cents an hour and would be
in addition to the four-cent booSt
already approved.
Other possible confessions includ-
ed vacation pay, which was granted
to incorporating employees in 1941,
and payment for layovers between
runs.
Although the conferees declined to
discuss settlement proposals after
Sundays meeting, the White House
issued a statement saying no final
agreement had been reached but
that labor and management repre-
sentatives believed the conference
had contributed greatly to a clear
er understanding of the problems in
Volved."
CALL COMMITTEE
The unions Immediately called
to Washington from Chicago their
executive committees which have
the authority to ratify or reject
settlement proposals and to with
draw strike orders.
Labor and management repre-
sentatives were expected to discuss
at Tuesdays meeting the possibility
of an agreement along lines pro-
posed by the administration. No
further conferences were scheduled
at the White House, but B-rnes and
v llSOll WClC CApCOOCo w hSSP 49,
close touch with negotiators.
Chiefs of the Is incorporating
brotherhoods clung to fading hope
that the house would pass before
beginning it's Christmas recess to-
morrow the senate-approved Tru-
man resolution which would increase
hourly rates of their 100000 nom
operating employees by eight cents.
An emergency board recommends
ed that amount last May 25 but
Vinson overruled the award and
later approved a sliding scale of
increases ranging from 10 cents in
the lowest bracket to four cents
for the higher brackets. The unions
rejected the sliding scale and signed
an agreement with the carriers for
an eight-cent general increase.
The house interstate commerce
committee scheduled vote on the
resolution today but despite its ac-
ton the outlook was dim for vote
by the full house. Administration
Intervention in the operating case
which was tied closely to the nom
operating dispute, was expected to
check congressional sentiment for
the resolution.

The constitution of Arizona prohib-
it the assuming of any obligation
OF this kind, and in that case we

Secondly" he continued, "the
language and spirit and intent of
the proposed contract, in our opin-
ion. is distinctly a violation of the
language and intent of the Boulder
Canyon Project pact. The execution
Of this contract by the secretary of
the interior, in our opinion, would

The Imperial Irrigation District

both have existing pacts and con-
tracts which give them prior rights,

Arizona would be merely a case of
over-selling the available water, Mr..
Hewes believed.
EAST MESA PROJECT
eReceptly the Imperial Irrigation
District made efforts TO reach an
agreement with the Federal Bureau
Of Reclamation for the test farm
ing of 10000 so-called bad acres"
on the East Mesa The bureau coun-
tered the districts proposed 10-year
lease at 81 per acre with a lease
running five years which could be
terminated within 90-days at any
time after the war ends by the
bureau. This counter-lease was
considered with reluctance and to-
dHte no further tangible moves
have been made to open the bad
acres.

that this contract is one of the
methods of leading up to that
