Farmer Is in Danger
OF Losing His Rights

I'm taking time to write this letter
right in the middle of haying and sum

Not long ago one of my nearest neigh.
bors came to me and said that Bu-
reau of Reclamation representative had
been to see him and asked him to sign
up for an irrigation district. My neigh
Dor told him he had all the water he
wanted and didn't care to be in the
district. The bureau representative in
formed him he would be in whether he
wanted to sign or not. This seemed so
ridiculous that he laughed, To think of
a government agency being able to tell
a man who owned his own ranch that
he would do as the Bureau of RecEama-
ton said or lose his ranch. We both
thought this talk was Russian.
Since that time several farmers
grouped together and hired an attorney
to see if they could be excluded from

In some instances this district is fore

they have farmed all their lives. To ex-
plain this, LET me tell the facts of one
neighbours plight. His entire ranch is
in the district, but his ranch is wild
hay and low land pasture operation.
1t is very similar to the Big Hole
Basin operation, which any rancher
knows is very, profitable. Now when
his district is put in operation, his
entire place will be drained and he
will be forced to pillow and level this
ground for new type of farming.
Anyone who has worked this type OF
ground knows that it will take from
hree to five years to break up and get
his ground in condition to produce.
During this time he will have lost his

expense of working this ground. There

Mrs. Nathan TWining had
some unexpected guests for
dinner last evening and they
turned out to be her hus-
bands new civilian boss and
his wife. Almost anything can
happen in this town.
The guests were newly ap-
pointed Secretary of the Air
Force and Mrs. Donald
Quarles.
The Air Force Chief of Staff
and Mrs. Twining were hosts
at a dinner in honor Of the
retiring Secretary Of the Air
Force and Mrs. Talbot. The
party for 100 guests took place
at the officers Club at Boiling
Air Force Base.
Just for Air Force
When the reporter asked the
hostess if the Quarles would
be there she replied, "Oh, no;
it is just an Air Force party.
1t was early afternoon and
Mrs. Twining had not heard
the news that Assistant Secre-
tary of Defense Quarles had
been appointed Secretary of
the Air Force.
Obviously a quick invitation
had been issued from the Gen.
erals Office to the new Sec
retary and his wife without
Mrs. Twining knowing it. This
all goes to prove that 1t is
still a mans world!
Attractive Mrs. Twining can
