NORMAN LEE ABSTRACTOR EsUMlKhed 40 Tears BIUGHAM CITT, UTAH Washington, D. C. BIG VS. LITTLE FARMERS Forty years have elapsed between the battles of Teddy Roosevelt and Cousin FDR, but one issue which plagued the former is also plaguing the latter and is now before congress. It is the question whether government irrigation, government water, and government reclamation shall benefit the big landowner or the small. The issue is now one of the hottest fights both in California ahd in congress, where Secretary of the Interior Ickes has been called to testify on a rider which Congressmen Elliott and Carter of California have skilfully smuggled into the rivers and harbors bill a rider permitting big landowners in California's central valley to benefit from government irrigation. The question in Teddy Roosevelt's day was whether any farmer holding more than 160 acres should benefit from government irrigation. The issue arose when the land kings of the Far West wanted to develop their ranches and speculative holdings through irrigation at government expense. The West was for it, but the East Eastern states claimed objected. be footing the tax bill would they and that Western irrigation would come out of their pockets. The West replied that the irrigation projects of Jhat day would provide benefits for small Eastern farmers who migrated westward tomorrow. After a terrific battle, Teddy Roosevelt won out Congress ruled that government - irrigated land tracts must be limited to 160 acres. That law still stands. But Republican Congressman Carter of Oakland, Calif., and Democratic Congressman Elliott of Tulare, Calif., have ganged up to change it with a rider exempting the central valley irrigation project. Their amendment, already passed by the house, would mean that big ranchers in the central valley could benefit from the new irrigation project no matter how extensive their holdings. Even more important, it would mean that a lot of new land, not extensively cultivated at present, would be subjected to speculation. Ickes for Small Farms. Secretary of the Interior Ickes, who has supervised the expenditure of $150,000,000 on central valley irrigation, is determined that the benefits shall not go to land speculators and big ranchers, plus some of the big liquor companies which have bought up California wineries. The issue, according to Secretary Ickes, is whether the U.S.A. is going to become a nation of large landowners hiring Okies and tenant farmers, or whether the nation will ' cut-thro- at feature medium-size- d farmers operating their own land. NOTE Business men in the central valley are split over the issue. Many merchants believe that medium-sized farms rather than poorer farm labor make for better business in neighboring towns. The Fresno Chamber of Commerce calls 60 to 80 acres of figs an economic unit for a family, or 80 to 120 acres of alfalfa. The Chamber has sent out booklets urging settlers to take up small land tracts. FOUR-F- s. Despite all the army howls for to get into war plants, it remains a fact that physical examination in many plants is so stiff that they can't get in. In fact, the physical in some plants is stiffer than in the army. Many a patriotic F has worn out shoeleather making the rounds of war plants, only to find that he can't for get in. A punctured instance, is considered just as important in a war plant as in the 4-- Fs 4-- ear-dru- army. In recent weeks, belated steps have been taken to relax some of these physical restrictions, but much still remains to be done. So you can't blame a lot of the if they aren't in war plants. Another difficulty which the War Manpower commission might well dig into is the fact that anyone can quit work in a vital war plant but, without a certificate of availability, cannot transfer to another war plant at least, not until after a period. In other words, you can step out of an aircraft factory or a synthetic rubber plant and go to work in a barber shop or at a bootblack stand, or Just loaf at home. They are not essential industries. But if you want to switch to a munitions plant, you can't without a certificate of availability (which you probably can't get), or without waiting the required cooling-of- l period of 60 days. 60-d- ay MERRY-G- O ful, and Mrs. Norvella Bertrum of Salt Lake City, were Memorial day guests of Mrs. Ray Hill family went to Memorial Day. wall. for Richmond ti Salt Lake City, Bob Smith, of is spending a few days vacation with the Aarl Bennett family. and twin babies of Logan, and Mrs. Frank Ms. Joe Rinderknecht Nielson and children of Providence spent the day, Wednesday, with their sister, Mrs. Orval Ewer.

Railroad workers were granted a week's vacation as part of the wase compromise last year, but the railroad executives now contend that FDIt meant the vacation should be six days, not seven.
