ARIZONA TESTS SHOW
SPRINKLER IRRIGATION
C0NSERVES WATER

Bureau of Reclamation experiments on
Yuma Mesa show that portable sprinkler
systems can help farmers use limited
water supplies more efficiently in semi
arid regions. New lands can be brought
into production which could not be irri-
gated by ditch or flood methods. Also
sprinkled water penetrates soil more uni
formly, helps avoid crusting and soil ero-
sion which sometimes result from flooding.

One Man Easily Moves 3 Sections
of Aluminium Pipe oft q Time

It's the light weight of Alcoa aluminium
that makes sprinkler equipment truly
portable. Pipe weighs less than pound
per foot in the a. size-about one-third
the weight of steel. Saves time, effort and
labor cost in shifting laterals.

Mody Christians

When the Library of Congress planned the
first of its talking books" for the blind to be
recorded by professional players, it chose Mady
Christians to be the star. That was we'll
deserved tribute to her skill She interpreted the
difficult role of the tragic heroine OF 1bSen's
"Hedda Gabler.' The date of the production was
1899, and the great Austrian-American actress
was in her prime Behind her lay "a years OF hard
but fruitful work on the stage on both sides of
the Atlantic Her career had started-in German
at the old Irving Place Theater in New York on
February 8, 1915, when she was only few weeks
more than Is years of age.
But Madys early successes as child actress
were not good enough to satisfy her father,
Rudolph Christians, himself celebrated actor
and manager Her mother gave up her own voca-
tion to take her back to Berlin~to study with Max
Reinhardt. He did his best for her, but it really
was Mady who perfected her talents through the
power of her own determination She appeared
in all the capitals of Europe, building up an ex-
ceptionally large repertoire in both the classical
field and the modern.
Then, in 1881. she returned to America
speaking English. Motion pictures and radio
claimed her when she was not busy elsewhere.
Miss Christians was only 81 when she died
last Sunday. She leaves name which always
should be bright in the annals of "show business,
for she was not only an artist of distinction, but
also person Of memorable grace and charm.

cracks scarcely large enough for bumble-
bees.
There often are such places. even in
well built houses. Squirrels are especi-
ally able to handle wooden shingles, but
ordinarily can do nothing with slate
roof. For some reason or other they do
not like to tear up asbestos or similar
shingles, although they might easily do
so to some of them. This is very fortu-
nate for owners of less resistant roofs
Squirrels overhead are great nuis-
ance, and offer some hazard.
Their antics are very annoying, and
their habits indoors none too sanitary.
It is best, from all counts, to get them
out as quickly as possible.
This may be done by offering them
sun1ower seed down in the yard. and
quickly closing up all openings with wire
mesh, or sound boards, as soon as they
are all out.
Flying squirrels sometimes make en-
try In the same way and are even more
of a nuisance. They are among our
most interesting squirrel forms, but are
best kept outside. They eat insects,
fruits, nuts, leaves, and bark, and this
material makes a mess in the attic.
We advise our correspondent to try
the trick of the black cat, first. and if
this does not work, to go after the mat
ter as further suggested, and to keep at
it until results are achieved. The best
place for squirrels is outdoors.
Even the squiraels would admit it. If
they could talk.

ally came out ahead. Others began to
have difficulty with the government.
The Labor Department was expanded
into a Secretariat of Labor and Social
Welfare, with Peron as secretary and
a union leader as his top aide. A large
volume of labor legislation was put on
the books. Most OF the nations workers
were covered for the first time by social
security. Wages were increased, paid
vacations made mandatory, low-cost
housing built. Peron, never a man to
hide his light under a bushel, received
full credit.
Meanwhile, he was rapidly building
up strong political organization. The
colonel helped organize new unions
where organization had been impossible
before. Good Jobs were used as bait to
lure undecided labor leaders into the
Peron camp. A registration law made
it easy to kill off unco-operative unions.
Soon the General Confederation of
Labor under Peronista officers, dom
mated the Argentine labor field.
In February of 1914, few days after
the Ramirez government had severed
relations with the Axis, the Peron clique
seized control. making Peron's nominal
boss. War Minister Eldemiro j. Farrell,
President, and Peron Vice President.
The job of consolidating labor support
continued at full speed.
Army rivals of Peron, backed by the
Campo de Mayo garrison, rose against
the Farrell-Peron regime in October Of
1914, and PerOn was forced to resign.
He was held in custody on an island off
the coast and the new regime began
to undo many of his acts.
October IL, the Day of the Race in
Latin countries. had just been pro-
claimed a paid legal holiday. With
Peron out of the way, many employers
announced a work las usual, no-extra-
pay policy. It was minor point, but it
convinced many workers that the over
throw Of Peron would result in the de-
struction Of many of the gains they had
made.
Pro-Peron workers, particularly in the
packinghouse workers union. began to
move into Buenos Aires by truck, train
and even on foot. BY October II the city
was virtually in their hands.
The army could have suppressed the
rioting and disorder, but only at the
cost Of many lives. The military ele-
ments which had thrown out Peron were
not willing to fight against the Peronista
mobs
In the midst Of q nationwide general
strike, Peron returned in triumph, an
nouncing his candidacy for the presi-
dency. Nominated by his own Labor

class hero? The story is told in some de-
tail by Robert J. Alexander in a new
book. "The Peron Era" a study of
Peron's policies and political tactics.
Peron was one of the leading spirits in
the colonies revolt of June 4, 1943, when
pro-Axis army officers, backed by the
Campo de Mayo garrison, seized power to
prevent the election of a pro-Allied
President.
His army career had not been spectac-
ular-his chief distinction came as a
fencer. But he was hard worker, a
man of magnetic personality and I'M
bounded ambition. In the division of
the spoils he took key military job in
the Ministry of War and the rather un-
important civilian post of president Of
the National Labor Department.
The military regime of Gen. Pedro
Ramirez quickly set about alternating
whatever support it had by series Of
arbitrary actions. It was obvious to
Col. Peron that if the army officers
were to remain in power they would
have to find a little popular support
somewhere
Peron began to cultivate labor lead
ers. He found that his new post gave
him chance to move into the collec-
tive-bargaining picture. The word soon
got around that unions which took
their troubles to Col. Perons office usu-

Reserves would 60 into action only in case of

1t is the Ready Reserve program that must be
depended on, then, to complete the elementary"
training given during the short UNIT course
Congress must see to it that this program pro-
vides training more adequate to the needs of the
services than the present ineffective Reserve
training program. In the past the Reserve
program has been hampered by inadequate
facilities and funds. These shortcomings must
be remedied if UNIT is to be as effective as the
requirements of national security demand.

Dear Sir:
What am I to do about squirrels in
my attic?
mot bats in my belfry! I have no
bats. no belfry, but large attic-and
plenty Of squirrels.
"They come in usually at this time
Of year. and set up housekeeping for
the winter. They romp and play, and
fight, evidently, because I find evidences
Of fur torn out
"In doing all these things they make
as much noise. really, as troupe of
wildcats.
Il have tried putting them out with
insect sprays. but evidently they are
not insects.
Il have tried bright lights, loud noises.
and even music. but they come back.
Nothing do actually scares them
away for long.
Perhaps you might suggest some
thing have not tried. short Of dyna-
mite. am getting desperate, as their
scampering reminds me Of rats.
please come to my rescue before we

the figure, if possible, both day and
night.
The cardboard cat should be painted
black, nice soft black.
Our gray squirrels do not like black
animals Of any kind, even of their own
species.
The role Of black, or melaniStic
squirrel in Washington garden is not
a happy one.
It is regarded with great suspicion by
all the grays, and usually it is run out
of the neighborhood in short order.
The gray squirrels are in the ma
jority, and seem to resent any other
color. although the fewer black ones
are just color phases of the grays.
1t makes no difference; the gray speci-
mems resent the black ones at all times.
In certain places. however, where the
black forms predominant, they live very
happily side by side with the fewer gray
ones.
The best way to keep squirrels out
Of attics is to see that the top Of the
house is tight.
This means that there must be no
crack or crevice in or around the roof
or caves large enough for a squirrel to
get its paw in.
They are experts at enlarging such
places. Many times they take over bird
houses. cutting out the door with their
sharp teeth.

EnIiqhtened Unionism

The Congress of Industrial Organizations
deserves pat on the back for its plan to elm
nate jurisdctional disputes among its member
unions Such disputes have often led to long
and costly strikes of the least justihable
kind-strikes in which there is no grievance
against working conditions but in which en-
ployers, employees and the public at large are
innocent byStanders forced to take it on the
chin simply because rival labor bosses cannot
agree on their spheres of authority over workers
in this, that or another industry.
1t is to meet this situation that the CIO has
devised it's plan. Under the plan, disagreeing
member unions would first hold conference in
an effort to settle their differences. Then, II the
conference failed, the dispute would be referred
to the Director of Organization for mediation.
Finally, as last resort, it would be subjected
to a firm decision by arbitration A similar
system is followed by sections of the American
Federation of Labor but the CLOS is in class
by itself because the settlements would take the
form of binding contracts that could be enforced
in the courts
OF course, since disSident labor bosses could
circumvent it by quitting the CIO if the arbi
tration went against them, this plan is not
cure-all for jurisdictional disputes. But it can
do good deal to discourage such disputes and
keep their number down to minimum. Aimed
as it is against irresponsible work stoppages that
cannot be justified morally, economically or
otherwise, it is an example of enlightened union
leadership. If 1t is put to work in earnest 1t can
hardly fail to be beneficial.
