Nogales-Douglas
Area Wettest
In State

TUCSON, Aug. 8-Rainfall runoff
in central and northern Arizona is
20 to SO per cent under the July
average, although in the southern
part of the state it is $50 per cent
of normal, according to John H.
Gardiner, district engineer for sur
face water Investigations, u. S. Geo.
logical Survey.
Wilbur Heckler, engineer in
! GARDENERS office, who recently
made a trip through southern
Arizona, said that the country is
green and grass is three to four
inches high. Best area was in the
belt from Nogales to Douglas
along the border.
Lake Mead dropped $4,000 acre
feet during the month and held
z, $500 less than year ago. The
Salt and Verde system. of reservoirs
decreased $500 acre feet. The
Gila river near Solomonville had a
run-off only 81 per cent of normal
the Salt river above Roosevelt Lake
so per cent.
The San Carlos reservoir, how
ever, began rising July 18, built up
to the outlet level and held 1,100
acre feet available for release at the

with $4,000 acre feet available
year ago and an average for July
since 1880 of 178,50O. Run-off in
the San Pedro river valley, which
hits the San Carlos system below
Coolidge Dam, helped the project
considerably, the report says.

CADOGAN GETS NEW IN-
 STRUCTIONS

Last wesi. His Excellency the Hon. Sir Alexander Cadogan, Bri- tish Delegate to the United Ma tions, emphatically denied having received certain instructions, as published in this column, regard ing Britain's policy of delaying &C., tion against Franco Spain.
 Since then the British Foreign Office in London ilas sent another cabled instruction to the British Delegation in New York, which out lines in great detail how it shall vote in order to prevent the Span isll issue from coming to head.
 If the delightful Sir Alexander wishes to deny existence of this cable, this column would be glad to publish the exact date, hour and minute the message left London, though we are refraining from this at the moment because, as he we'll knows, all such messages are mon- itored by foreign governments and comparison of texts could result in code break-downs.

 In the House Representative Helen Gahangan Douglas of California in trying to express her own political credo, has given her colleagues workable definition of the abused and confused term democ- racy." In doing she administered a thoroughly deserved rebuke to those who habitually apply the even more loosely construed label communism to every proposal designed to make democracy healthily functioning system for the advancement of popular purposes and the satisfaction of popular needs.
 T am jealous for democracy" said Mrs Douglas. T do not like to see the things that democracy can accomplish credited to communism Through the. years democracy has given the people of the United States freedom and higher standard of living than any other system that We know-and it has done so with less nequty less persecution, less infringement on the rights of free thinking free speech and free action than under any other form of government where else in the world I do not want the things that democracy has done aScrbed to anything other than the democratic process"

total of $46O0 is all the Salvation Army asks from the people of Juneau for this splendid and necessary organization to carry on its worthwhile activities in this community for another year And for the service performed during the ensuing year, it is very small amount to ask.
 Here is a brief idea of where the money went during 1945:
 Under the young peoples program TIP group work and character building meetings held, attended by 3260 youngsters during the year.
 Group work classes for adults held in Juneau dur ing the year numbered 37l than day, with total attendance at 6924 Forty-eight home league classes for women held A total of 834 hours during the year were devoted to home visitation and personal counselng.

BAR SPAIN FROM AGENDA

For all foregoing reasons, vote should be cast against any propo- sal to place Spanish question on agenda on lines suggested by French Government. It should of course be made abundantly clear that United Kingdom Government are as anxious as anyone to see end of present Spanish regime, and ready to join in any action which they feel is really calculated to bring about its peaceful replace ment by more suitable Govt.
 If, nevertheless. the Council de- cided by majority vote to place the matter on agenda, question would presumably be considered a 'situa- tion.' In that event and even on widest interpretation most Council could claim to do would be to in- vestigate situation under Article 34, in order to determine whether there was threat to international se- Cullbyy aiiQ lulAcl f1lttSiS oo, VO recommend appropriate procedures or methods of adjustment. GAS stated above, recommendations of these now could cnly be made if threat to peace was declared)
 Discussion might be pushed to extent where it became necessary to take vote on preliminary question whether continuation of Spanish situation was likly to endanger maintenance of international peace and security. When it comes to such a vote we see no alternative to your voting in negative. Discre- ton should be used as to stage at which such vote should be brought on, for we would not want to be accused of stifling all dis cussion of matter which, by majority vote. Security Council had already agreed to adopt on agenda.
