Voters of the district gave their approval in 1940 to the bond is sue. A year ago, the district di rectors adopted an ordinance pro viding for issuance of the bonds in accordance with the measure approved by the people. Eighteen taxpayers then filed a referendum to permit the dis trict voters to decide at the No vember, 1944, general election whether they want the bond is sue, the sponsors of the referen dum seeking to have the ordi- nanse put on the ballot. The supreme court decision, by Chief Justice Bailey, held that the ordinance could not be referred because it was administrative in character, and not legislative: and that the people already had votea on tne subject four years ago.

Holman for the repuoiican senatorial nomination as the state's outstanding politi cal event.

" Star of the ballet is Miss Es trelita, top-ranking exponent of sensational heel and toe catches who is shown here in one of her breath-taking exploits. Displaying dainty feminine giace, Miss Estrelita holds her spectators literally open-mouthed with astonishment when she cli maxes her reckless feats with a forward sommersault into midair from the flying trapeze catching only by her heels. The aerial ballet is only one of many innovations in the thrill filled, action-packed circus pro gram combining the cream of aerial, acrobatic, and arenlc tal ent with the startling and daring wild animal exhibitions of the famed Clyde Beatty. it 'i f ' ' Continuance of Guayule Program Favored by House WASHINGTON, June 20 (AP) The house, by a 288 to 43 rec ord vote, receded today from lis insistence upon the abandonment of rubber production from the guayule shrub in the west, and agreed with the senate to main- tain the project for another year, This action virtually assured $3,020,984 for the cultivation of the 32,000 acres of guayule in t the next fiscal year. Agreement to the senate's po sition came after Texas and Cali fornia congressmen declared nat ural rubber stockpiles in this country were ncarlng exhaustion and that the program should be continued at least as long as the war continued. , Opposition came principally from Reps. Tarvcr (D-Ga) and Cannon (D-Mo), who contended the cost of the program was ex cessive. Rep. Anderson (D-Calif), urg ing continuation of the program, asked whether this country was to continue to depend on foreign sources for rubber. Marvcsting now of guayule planted two years ago when tho program was in itiated would make the average cost of the rubber produced $2 per pound, whereas the same plants would In two more years V H ' f 9 - p have a sufficiently high rubber content to bring the production cost down to 53 cents, he added.

Practice limited to optometry Wallace Reaches ling; Say Moscow Goal CHUNGKING, June 20 (AP) Vice-President Wallace, visiting China as the personal represent ative of President Roosevelt, ar rived in this war capital today and immediately urged closer re lations between China and Siber ia. The vice-president, In a state ment distributed at the airport after his arrival from Russian territory, quoted Dr. Hu Shih. former Chinese ambassador to the United States, as having said that the boundary between Si beria and China "should be like the frontier between the United States and Canada not one of separation but one of joining friends together." Wallace said he wanted to see the land, talk with farmers, visit Chinese and American soldiers and above all discuss with Gener alissimo Chiang Kai-Shek "mat ters of mutual interest and con cern." DNB, German agency, put out this report today: "American Vice-President Wal lace, suddenly changing his orig inal plan to travel to Chungking, is now on his way to Moscow, it was learned from a reliable source. German political Circles believe that there is a connection between his visit to Moscow and the United States desire to ob tain from the soviet union certain naval bases for battle against Ja pan." Japan's Fears of U.S. Raids From Saipan Disclosed (By the Associated Press.) Japanese fears that Saipan is land, where American invasion forces are now engaging enemy forces, will be used as a base for shuttle bombig missions over Tokyo by B-29 Superfortresses flying from the island to China were expressed in a Berlin broad cast of a Tokyo dispatch today. "Competent Japanese sources are fully conscious of the seri ousness of the situation," the dis patch said. "American bombers, especially those of the B-29 op erating from Saipan air bases, would have no difficulty in launching systematic attacks on MM MMMMI t T flUTTli' 1 IiiMMwri 1 Tl lf Tokyo, only 2,500 kilometers (1,550 miles) away. "Contrary to their former at tacks on Japan from Chinese bases, the American pilots would have the advantage of having to fly over ground only while ac tually dropping their bombs," it continued. "The approach and return flights would be made across the sea and thus there would be no danger from Jap anese Interceptors. It is, more over, feasible that American bombers attacking Japan proper from Chinese bases might return to base on Saipan, where they could be refuelled more easily than in China. "In view of these facts, it is safely assumed that both sides will fight bitterly for possession of Saipan."
