BISBEE, Feb. THE Arizona
Cattle Growers Association was on
record Friday with demands that
further cuts in grazing permits be
halted Immediately and that con-
gress investigate the U. S. Grazing
Service, which has been ordering
the cuts.
Delegates to the associations an
nual convention here passed resolu-
tions embodying those demands
after electing Fred j. Fritz, Clifton,
speaker of the Arizona House of
Representatives, as president, and
selecting the following officers for
the coming year:
Carlos Ronstadt, Tucson, first
vice president; John Babbitt, Flag
staff, second vice president, and
State Sen Ralph Cowan, McNeal,
treasurer
In other resolutions, the cattle
men urged congress to release all
federally-controlled land that could
be used. for grazing, cutting the
areas of national parks and monu-
ments to minimum, and to pass
legislation removing beef from price
control at the same time that the
federal meat subsidies are removed.
The War Department was asked
to return to original owners the
100000 acres of land taken during
the war; the Agriculture Depart
ment was urged to furnish larger
quantities of cotton and cotton
growing supplies to Arizona farmers,
and a proposal was approved for
enlargement of the state bureau OF
animal husbandry at the University
of Arizona in line with developments
in the livestock industry.

fun, too. Scouts are important. Each
year our President addresses us per.

often we are called for emergency

We did an excellent job during the
war and will work even harder fo1

New Chamber Committees

Reorganization of the committees of
the Wilmington Chamber of Commerce
was effected primarily to better pre-
pare the organization to serve the COM
munity as a whole. We will see within
the coming months whether this aim
is realized.
The Chamber of Commerce system
has suffered nationally because some
local units have left the impression that
they were interested in the business
welfare of only a few factions or
cliques. Many became s~elf-centered
groups, representing only a minority.
Because of this, public support with
cred and whatever intentions a Cham
Der in this plight had of value to it's
community melted away
The new committee arrangement
here provides a really comprehensive
organization and should broaden it's
scope of service.
The interests of the several we'll
manned groups, ranging from agricul-
ture to wholesaling, cover the COM
munity's economic life. Through them,
aided by the professional secretaries,
the chamber will spearhead it's activi-
ties. But whether the system will come
up to its maximum expectations de-
ponds greatly on the chairmen of the
committees. 1t is a fine opportunity for
them to show initiative and magma
ton in conceiving and carrying out
their projects. It calls for real work
and upon each rests the responsibility
of accomplishment of his groups un-
dertakings.
AS the successes of each committee
are chalked up, so will the chambers
record of service to Wilmington grow.

Is Jacobs A Monopoly?

Sports, professional and amateur,
are classed among the nations big
businesses.
Therefore, it is with some disap-
pointment that we note Attorney Gen.
eral Clark has discounted the report
that the Justice department would
study big-time boxing and baseball to
determine whether antitrust laws are
being violated. The tame one-sided
Louis-Conn affair, termed a "scan-
dolous swindle" by a New York con-
gresham, was undoubtedly inspiration
for the earlier word Of the proposed in
vestigation.
The power Mike Jacobs holds over
professional boxing is well-known. from
the lowest pug in Stillman's gym tc
the well-informed millionaire who paid
BOO or more to sit within gun-shot
range of the Yankee stadium ring
That he can arrange such a farce as
the one of last Wednesday night anc
calm it off on the American public is
ample proof of his tremendous hold or
the sport. Mr.. Jacobs, through smar
manipulation in recent years, has work
ed himself into a position beyond chal
lenge of competition by any promoter
Whether it constitutes a monopoly, il
