Bubonit Plague
Found In Rabbits

A warning that bubonic plague
has been found among cottontail
rabbits and other rodents in sew
eral counties of New Mexico by
the U. S. department of Public
health was made today by Thomas
L. Kimball, director of the Arizona
Game and Fish Commission.
Kimball said that Importation of
game into Arizona is prohibited
without permission of the Arizona
Game and Fish commission, but
New Mexico has no law which pre-
vents shipment of cottontail rab-
bits out of that state.
Bubonic plague is carried by
fleas, and many plague-infested
fleas have been found on dead cot
tontails in New Mexico.
Bubonic plague has wiped out
whole civilizations of Europeans
during the middle ages, but has
been virtually eliminated under
modern medical and public health
practices.
Kimball urged all Arizonians to
avoid moving any flea-infested ami
mails of any kind from New Mex
leo into Arizona.
Annual destruction of grain by
rats, insects and mold would keep
15O,0O0,000 people alive.

tube, auger, or a shovel. With this
experimentation, farmers can work
out the most even water penetra-
ton to the proper depth and reduce
or eliminate surface water loss.
It is harder on long runs than
on short runs to get an even pene-
tration. But, more even pene-
tration can be obtained by using
larger heads to carry the flow
through most of the row, and then
reducing the head. Good water
penetration depends on the length
of time the water is in contact with
the soil.

Who Will Make The Next Move

The U. S. Supreme Court has struck the first blow
against Arizona segregated school law. Who will strike
the next and final one?
seems there wouldn't be inkling of doubt that
the decision applies to all states alike Surely if applies
to Texas and has been recognized by the Texas University
already despite the fact that school has been engaged in
political feud this issue for several years. it should
be positive conclusion that last Mondays unanimous
decision by highest Tribunal knocks Americas
gated school law skyhgh, although of the local
thores reluctant to predict that there will be much
change in set-up in Arizona.
The SUN predicted time ago that this decision
probably would be made by the high court before reach
ed the voters Of this state.
Now that this has passed. the referendum petition will
be pushed aside because it could no purpose.
Apparently the only thing left to do now, is start
getting our school houses in order and be that next
school Negro children will not have to travel miles
to school when school is situated just the road
from their home.
Law abiding and democratic citizens of Arizona should
1nd 1t very easy to make this adjustment and welcome
this opportunity which will void unnecessary cost to many
over-burdened tax payers.

Small Business
Loon Is Benefit
Saws Bimson

That the Small Business Loan
Plan no before Congress will not in
any way constitute threat to
free enterprise or to chartered
banking, was expressed by Walter
R. Bimson, president of the Val
ley National Bank, in an address
before the Phoenix Advertising
Club at their meeting Monday
noon (June 81. The plan is Title
of the Small Business Act of 1850
now before Congress.
In maintaining his position fav-
oring the passage of the legisla-
ton, Bimson stated: 'It is well to
emphasize the fact that the gov
ernment agency has no power to
make loans or to refuse insurance
on any loan that complies with
the conditions of the plan. The
banker does not ask for approval OF
the loan he wishes insured, he
simply reports it after it is made.
The government agency receives
the insurance premium from the
bank, holds it as trustee OF the
reserve fund, and pays the losses.
Surely this reduces the functions
of the government agency to
minimum. It takes a vivid imag-
ination to see in this simple ar
rangement a threat to free enter
prise or to chartered banking"
Against the argument that at
present there is no need for this
plan because the banks are already
making all the loans to small busi-
ness that can be made with due
regard to sound banking princi-
pies, Bimson had this to say: mo
one ever says how many loans the
banks have not made because few
banks keep any accurate or ade-
quate record of loans which have
been rejected. But it is a fact that
the banks have adopted policy
of making term loans to small bus
mess and have announced that fact
publicly and have Immediately re-
ceived many applications for such
loans, and have developed a satis-
factory volume"
Emphasizing the fact that the
plan only intends to make a gov
ernment agency a trustee for the
insurance funds placed there by
the banks in connection with each
loan made, Bimson stated: "Out-
side of the temporary advance OF
capital to get the plan started,
the plan involves no government
subsidy, no government expenses,
no burden to the taxpayer. The
borrower and the bank pay the
expenses and the losses. If the pre-
determined rate of insurance pre-
miums should not be sufficient to
do this, it is intended that the rate
shall be raised, so that the plan
will be entirely self-supporting.
Bimson, author of the Small
Business Loan plan, submitted to
Congress on December 5, 1949, has
been summoned to Washington to
testify before Congressional COM
mittee some time this week with
arguments favoring the plan. He
will represent the Small Business
Advisory Committee of the Depart
ment of Commerce, of which he Is
a member.

Measurements OF Fact

short time ago, according to New York Times
account the chairman of the Tennessee Valley Authority
SAID that the cry of socialism in connection with the
issue OF public control of electric facilities had been initial
ed by special privilege groups that unable to show
record OF progressive public service.
Going on he warned that private power interests were
trying to buy electricity at the point of it's by
the governmentowned, mulpurpose dams they could
sell it their transmission lines and dictate their
terms to the consumers"
He also said, 'What happens to the ownership of the
Utility industry has very little to do with the real free
enterprise of this country
These are farreachng statements And it is matter
how accurate they
First OF all, the claim that the utilities have failed to
snow record OF progressive public service is absurd
major scientific electric development They are now
engaged in the greatest expansion program their history
with special emphasis on completing the job of
rura America During the war; to take particularly
outstanding example, they carried the great bulk of the
electric load imposed by industry, and met every
necessary demand.
Second the statement to the effect that the utilities
want to distribute government produced power in
TO gouge the consumer shows reckless disregard the
facts When government dam sells electric current to
private company, the determines the whole
sale price and the company it. And when the power
is retaed by the company to the the charg
ed regulated and dictated not by the utilities but by
state regulatory commissions The utility" is allowed
only small profit it's capital investment usually five
the ones that free of all state regulation that protects
consumers and they the only to make their
own rates without regulatory restrictions.
Finally to say that ownership our utilities has no
bearing on the free enterprise question ridiculous If
government controls absolutely essential domestic

the tune for all business and all economic activity State
and local rights of regulation and taxation destroyed
Political appointees become masters And, they
are In the saddle the people have effective recourse

BLOOD TESTING FOR DOUGLAS

An opportunity is being given to
all persons in Douglas, IA years OF
age and older, to be blood tested. A
card indicating blood type will be
given to all persons tested. This
card should be carried so that in
any emergency requiring a trans
fusion the type will be known with
out requiring the time to type the
blood then. A master list will be
made so that possible blood donors
of the various types of blood will be
known if needed. However, to be
blood typed, it is not necessary to
be blood donor.
All persons north of the street
running by the school and Val Poor's
Community Store Cd Street, are
asked to be typed on Thursday Oct.
II. Those persons south of this
street are asked to be typed on
Tuesday, Oct. II. However, if it is
inconvenient to come at the date
set for you, then come at the other
date. Two doctors from Juneau will
be present to take the blood samples.
They are giving their time to this
work in cooperation with the civil
defense program and the Red Cross.
For them to do the blood tipping in
two nights, it will be necessary for
all persons to cooperate by being
on time so there will be no waiting
by the doctors.
The blood tipping will be at the
school and will begin at 7:3O pm.
The Rev. j. P. Porter is in charge
of this program. If there are fur
ther questions he should be con-
tacted.
This is a free service and every
person should take advantage of
this opportunity. Those who have
been recently blood typed should
give this information so that a per-
sonal card can be made and SO that
the master list can be as complete
as possible. Let us show the fine CO.
operative spirit of Douglas by max
ing this 100 percent.
