Roger Ernst. Arizona land
commissioner and that State's

day Arizona had tried to limit
the use of its dwindling under
ground water supply through
well and pumping regulations.
Ernst said a 1943 law made it
mandatory for farmers pumping
in critical areas to register their
wells.
Asked in cros-examination
how much of a staff he had to
police the regulations. Ernst
said ht had ' four to six men in
the field " Ke said this was

TOSSES BOMBSHELL INTO GOP RANKS Presidential Assistant Harold E. Stassen threw a bombshell into
the GOP political campaign by announcing he will fight to get the vice presidential nomination for Governor
Christian A. Herter of Massachusetts instead of Richard Nixon. President Eisenhower, on his arrival home in
Washington from Panama (left), has only a brief, perfunctory handshake and "hello" for Stassen, who was in
the welcoming group. The President went out of his way to give a warm, cordial greeting to Nixon (right) and
hold a plane-side chat with the Vice President. White House Press Secy. James C. Hagerty told newsmen that
he is standing firm on his prediction that Nkon will be renominated as the President's running mate.

Meanwhile. James H Howard,
chief counsel for the Metropol
itan Water Bureau of Southern
California, said anyone con
nected with the case "who hasn't
gray hair now- will probably
have it before this is finished."
'The end is nowhere in sight
and cannot be accurately pr
dicted." Howard added. ''We
have not got into the legal
phases of the litigation and I
don't know when we will."
Harry W. Horton, attorney for
the Imperial Water District of
California, predicted the case
ould take at least two years.
He recalled that a water sviit be
9een Kansas and Colorado be
Slan in mm and was finally de
cided in 1922.

Casserley smokes, drinks eats

Newspaper Reporter
Gets Farmer's Eggs
11 a r r i s b u r g. 111. U.R
G. E. Crest of Pankeyville. 111.,
is tile kind of farmer a news
paper reporter likes to see bring
in oversized eggs.
Crest recently brought in four
whoppers to Timotheus Turner,
of the Harrisburg Daily Register.
One egg weighed 4!2 ounces and
measured 7!s by 8 inches: two
of the eggs were four ounces
each and the fourth 3Vi ounces.
Crest told Timotheus to take
the eggs -home with him. The
reporter did and, when prepar
ing an omelet that night, found
three yolks in the biggest egg
and two in each of the others.

The civil servants' case is that
they would get in trouble u itii '
their superiors if they did not
comply strictly with the regula
tions in a country that worships
the written word.
Only thing to do appears to
be to kill most of liie regulations .
and rewrite others drastically
a job that would lake any gov
ernment years and would run
into dozens of pitfalls.
As it was. many Italians were
trying to get along by simply
ignoring the regulations.
A few instances of red tape
in recent months included:
Verona. Jan. 17 Police dis
covered Mrs. Anna Antevere,
now 78 and living in a poorhouse,
disobeyed a routine order to re
port to police headquarters in
1937. Police waived their legal
right to arrest her but sent her
for trial on charges of contempt.
Rome, Oct. 3, 1955 Roberto
Pancalli won his fifth form cer
tificate at the age of 81. Pancalli
had to produce the certificate
under new regulations to renew
the license of his car-driving
school. No record of his original
fifth form certificate could be
found because the school he had
attended as a boy had ceased to
exist. So Pancalli went to school
again for a month to get a new
cert liicate. He pas.-eu all exam-j
inations brilliantly, including
singing. 1

helmet and sounds the bugle in j
veterans' parades, was proposed
for the promotion when he was
