An ExpI0notion

Since there seems to be so much confusion and misunder- standing prevailing relative to the referendum in the coming City election to condemn a DOT tion of the alley from Harbor Avenue 10 Brooklyn Avenue. 1 will attempt to clarify this mat ter to the voters.
 The portion of this alley to be condemned lies between Knud sens Fountain and where the old Polar Bear building stood. This 10 foot tract of land was surveyed in l94l as one of two outlets of the alley that starts on Harbor Avenue between the Mecca Bar building and Chris tvs Bakery. This portion has never been used for an alley and before it could be used the city would have to build a b idge a. cross the creek end 1t would cad nowhere as there IS a build ing blocking this propo' 'ed al ey. Also. this proposed alley was surveyed on an angle cutting in- to ots on each side which would spoil the appearance of any building put up on either side of this alley It is also oGly B feet from the street known as Alaska Way
 trust this will explain this matter to the voters as 1 do not believe any one who IS fully in- formed on this referendum and IS interested in our city's welfare an progress, could have any grounds to oppose it.

below the OPA retail price I he new regulation setting che whole sale price at 30 cents a quart makes it prohibitive to attempt to handle and deliver milk to retail outlets in town.
 During the period we kept our price below the OPA ceiling we absorbed increasing costs of op- eration, including labor and feed, without adjusting our price up. ward to the allowed ceiling
 Our experience in the past yea demonstrates tC us that at present operating costs we can not handle milk in town at a profit at the new established price.
 We deeply regret having to cease town deliveries and wish our customers to know that we have sought vain!y for solution that would obviate such action.

Acute Shortage of
Refrigerator Cars
Threaten Veg. Crop

Coal strike in east can be dis
asferous TO vegetable growers
OF eloy area-carrots may be
delayed but lettuce and broc-
coli must be shipped when
ready.
An acute shortage of refrigera-
tor cars may hamper the shipping
Of the greatest carrot. lettuce. and
broccoli crop Arizona has ever
produced.
Stephen ]. polyi. speaking for
Eloy Ranches. Inc said that more
than four to five carloads a day
are being shipped. and more could
be shipped from Eloy If railroads
could supply the necessary refrig-
Grated cars.
The shortage OF ears Is due, he
said. to the coal strike in the
East. and although the carrot crop
can be held for a while. the let
tuce and broccoli must be shipped
Immediately or the crop will be a
loss. AS last chance alternative,
the company Is remaking box cars
into refrigerator cars by lining
them and packing them with ice.
But unless more cars are sent in,
the prospects look very bad for
the crop.
On the markets In Chicago and
New York. where the vegetables
are shipped. they are bringing the
highest price that has ever been
received.
Several hundred Navajo Indians
from New Mexico have been
brought into the state TO harvest
the carrot crop by Eloy Ranches
and Arizona Farms. The Indians
are reputed TO be the best pickers
and bunch wrappers in the coun-
try.
