COLORADO WAR BLAMED
ON ROCKEFELLER, JR.

An international News special
from New York to Mondays
Commercial Appeal says:
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., was
held personally responsible for
the Colorado mine war at meet
ing in Murray Hill Lyceum today
by men and women who saw
soldiers set fire to tents, who
witnessed the murder of men,
women and children, who drag
ged scorched bodies from pits
and who themselves were shot at
repeatedly by soldiers and mine
guards.
Mrs. Thomas, a miners wife,
who came to this country ten
months ago from Wales, said
when she saw the Statue of Lib
erty her heart thrilled, but that
now she feels that it is such a
travesty that it ought to be de-
stroyed.
Another paragraph says:
"A boy sat in a tent with his
baby sister on his lap caressing
her. Other children stood around.
A bullet struck him in the head
and his brains were scattered
over the baby and other children.
Thinking they would respect
the Red Cross, | put on a white
dress with crosses sewed on the
arms aIg breast and ran toward
a pit in which some women and
children had taken refuge. |
was driven back by the bullets.
The crosses furnished targets for
the guns"
A scathing denunciation of
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and
Gov. Ammons of Colorado was
delivered by Adolph Germer, an
organizer of the United Mine
Workers.
Unless Rockefeller gives in,
there will never be peace in Col
orado," " proclaimed Germer.

In Fine Shape

While the roads in places are . lit. tie .oit. there is DO particular alarm over the conditions of the main rosds from Tom bstone. We have a special report on the road from Pesrce to Tombstone and tbat is to the effect that the road is in excellent shape ex- cept in one place iust beyond the turn-off to the Kendall ranch there is a little washout that is bothersome but not over three minutes work with e sbovei would fix the spot. From Douglas to Huschuca Siding over the Borderland there is DO bad rosd eI- cepting 6 conple of miles between the
 Bisbee Extension mine and the hills this side Of the Government Draw, it can ba crossed but not st top speed
 From Tom bstone to Fsirbank tue road i. o K, and from Fsirbark to Hua- cnucs Siding there are three cross
 washes that only have to be watched
 spd not bit at full speed.
 The roads are exceptionally good this year, considering the heavy down. pour in plsces. The reason of the good conditions this year is that the road workers paid more attention to drainage sipce the rsins of last year | than ever before. Drainage is the big problem in Arizona anyway, and | il yuu will keep the water under the
 roads and not croes it CD top, tht roads will remain excellent.
