DEMANDS AID FOR VETERANS. Senator Ashurst's Amendments Are Turned Down. Washington, Dec. 24. Senator Ashurst, Democrat, Arizona, warned members of congress to day that unless immediate and adequate appropriation is made to care for sick and disabled former service men, he would in augurate a single handed campaign "against the men who have disregarded the public iu terest." The senator's statement was made when the Russian relief bill was returned to the senate after the bouse had declined to accept two senate amendments, both introduced by Senator Ash urst.

One would have appropriated 500,000 for the hospitalization of the former service men injArizona, and the other was for use in relieving un-imployment. Washington, Dec. 24. Three plans for raising revenue to pay a soldier bonus will be laid before the Ways and Means Committee of the. Home when Congress convenes on January 3, with the expectation that a compensation bill will be framed before February, Members of the committee, it was learned today, have reached the conclusion tbat any bonus bill submitted to the House must carry its own levies to meet the obligation which it creates.

With this in mind the following plans will be offered: First Manufacturers' and business sales tax. Second Special tax on legalized sales of non intoxicating beers and wines. Third Receipts from a spe cial bond issue based on the refunding of foreign loans. Chairman Fordneyof the committee, has always favored the manufacturers' sales tax to raise the money for a cash bonus on the basis of $1 a day, with a maximum of $625 for overseas service and of $500 for service in the United States. YUMA.

ARIZONA. ORANGES. We are indebted to Col. J. H.

Westover, publisher of the Yu ma Sun, for a fine box of Yuma oranges and grape fruit, from the Yuma Mesa Orange Ranch, which arrived yesterday with the Colonel's Christmas greetings. During the recent Arizona Daily Newspaper Association's convention at Nogales, Colonel Westover invited the publishers to meet with him next year, pro mising them he would show them a portion of Arizona's development they have never seen before, and where oranges and citrus fruit grow that excel by far the California product. In fact, the Colonel stated, be would mail each publisher present a box of the fruit to convince them of his claims. California, he said, is putting the Yuma citrus products in her best hotels and labeling them as California's, which goes to prove, we opine, that the native sons will do anything to boost Cali fornia, no matter at whose expense. The Colonel was right when he said that Yuma's citrus pro ducts far excelled those of Cali fornia, for never before have we sampled an orange from Califor nia that had the flavor and the body that those Yuma oranges contain, and we look forward to trip to Yuma as the Colonel's guest during the next convention, where we are promised that we will be shown some "Arizona country we have never seen before" for the Colonel always makes good his promises.

Announcement has been made by the Arizona Cattle Growers' Association of further relief that will be granted in meritorious cases of those users of the National' Forests who have been unable to pay their grazing fees on December first, the time limit heretofore set by congressional legislation.

To many of the cattlemen of Arizona who graze their stock on the National Forests it has been impossible, in view of their deplorable condition from drought and lack of market, to pay the fees which were first due last April, and through the efforts of the Cattlemen's Association the time of payment was postponed twice, finally to December 1st. The first of December found many of them with a greater inability to meet this obligation, and the Association has been endeavoring either to have the time of paymeni again postponed or to avoid the penalties regularly enacted by reason of non-payment. In telegraphic information received from Senator Ashurst, it is stated that Senator Asbnrst, Representative Hayden, Governor Thomas E. Campbell and Dwigbt B. Heard had an extended interview with the Secretary of Agriculture on this matter, pointing out that many honest industrious cattlemen in Arizona, through no fault of their own, were not in position to pay these fees at this time and unless the fees were extended, these men would be ruined.

Rather than enacting further legislation in this matter the Secretary of Agriculture has kindly issued instructions to the various Forest Supervisors, directing them to accept promissory notes from those permittees on the Forests who have been unable to pay the grazing fees, in all cases where the good faith of the permittee was evident. The Arizona Cattle Growers' Association has requested interested cattlemen to make tender of their notes to the Forest Supervisors, and failing to secure proper recognition, to take the matter up with the Association's offices at Phoenix. NOTICE. The annual meeting of the stockholders of The Nogales Nation Bank will be held in its offices at Nogales, Arizona, on Tuesday, January 10th, 1922, at four p. for the purpose of electing a board of directors for the ensuing year and for the transaction of other legitimate business that may come before the meetiug.
