The discussion of the contract lasted the greater part of the day with the beet growers finally accepting the contract under protest and a clause being inserted in the contract as follows: "Whereas, The sugar manufacturers .maintain that in order that the sugar factories may operate in 1933 a tariff clause must be incorporated into 1933 beet contract; and 'Whereas, The beetgrowers in every fcttgrowing section feel that such a ,visuse is decidedly unfair to the grower and in some cases even unnecessary; now, therefore, be it "Resolved, That if it becomes necessary for the growers to accept such a clause in the contract in order to preserve this important and vital industry, that they do so under vigorous protest and with a definite understanding that such a clause shall not extend into any beet contract after 1933." The meeting closed motion presented by after adopting a the South Box Elder County Beetgrowers' association, asking the aid of the Utah congressional delegation in the prevention of a reduction in the tariff on cane sugar. Sugar manufacturers of Utah have voluntarily reduced the price of sugar Jbeet seed to the growers from 15 to 12 cents per pound, Douglas Scalley, general agricultural superintendent of o the Sugar company, announced Tuesday. Tlie reduced price, it was pointed out, means a substantial saving for the growers and was made as an incentive to farmers to plant ample beet seed. A similar reduction was announced in Denver by the Great estem Sugar company, the Associ- ted Press reported. Utah-Idah- Eight Teams Meet For Box Elder Co.

J ! Corinne School Puts On School Operetta Board member, J. D. Harris tells of his visit to Corinne last Saturday night. Mr. Harris, his son, J. D., Jr., and Don Luke drove down on purpose to be present at the operetta. Mr. Harris expressed his satisfaction in the way the teachers are taking care of the school children. There are about 200 pupils and six teachers. The program was presented in the L. D. S. chapel at Corinne, the house being filled to overflowing with patrons and visitors. Most of the 200 children took part. The Corinne people have been handicapped on account of the deep and drifted snow and were unable to get their children to school with the van. Parents delivered their children for nearly 30 days with sleighs. After this time the farmers got out with teams and worked nearly one week to get their road open and today th vans are making their trips under much difficulty. Principal Fry informed Mr. Harris that extra attention would be given the children who were unable to attend school. ' In short, under the new act for the benefit and relief of debtors, no proceedings shall be instituted or maintained in any court for the collection of money, foreclosure or mortgage or other liens ,or the sale of any land or personal property for the recovery or possession of any personal or real property. This new law, which is one of the most sweeping and comprehensive ever to be enacted in the United States, for the benefit of debtors, is intended, according to Mr. Skeen, to ease the burdens of the debtor and prevent driving him off his farm or from possession of his personal property or home until he has been granted a hearing with his creditors, As explained by Attorney Skeen, after fifteen petitions have been filed with the distrist Federal Judge ,ask-in- g for relief ,the judge appoints a commissioner who acts as the mediator between the creditor and debtor. This commissioner notifys the creditors that a hearing on the obligations of the debtor will be held at such a time and place appointed by the commissioner for the purpose of adjusting the obligations between debtor and creditor to a point where the debtor will be able to meet them. After hearing the two sides the commissioner will make his report to the federal judge, who is the sole judge in the matte' , whose recommendations ' stand when made...
