Corporation Commission Engaged in Investigation of Interstate
 Lumber Rates

After two days delay the rate hear ing before the state corporation com mission in relation to lumber rates The arrival in the city of Paul P. Hastings, assistant general freight and passenger agent of the Santa F'e and Attorney H. C. Booth, of the Southern Pacific, made the opening of the hear ing possible, they having been unable to reach the city prior to that time be- cause of the washouts in the Califor- mia roads.
 ". P Geary, chairman of the cor poration commission is conducting the hearing. Hastings and F. W. Camp, attorneys for the Santa Fe, are con ducting the case for the railroads
 Edgar Brown, rate clerk of the com mission was the first witness before the body. Brown testified that the rates between points within the state was higher in comparison than was the rate from California points to sta tions in Arizona. He suggested that the California rates to Arizona be used as a basis for the new rates. It was further shown in Browns examination that the rates between Arizona and states east were generally lower than rates from one place to another within the state
 In the afternoon William McDermott, of Williams, representing the Saginaw and Manisett Lumber company, the Arizona Lumber and Timber company, the GreenlaW Lumber company, and the Flagstaff Lumber and Manufactur- ing company, took the stand. He brought out practically the same facts as were shown by Brown in his ex- animation and cross examination in the morning.

START CRUSADE
 . F0R PURE MILK
Thirty-three Are Arrested Charged With Selling Milk Not Up to Standard Required by the City Ordinance

The pure milk crusade inaugurated several days ago by the city health department reached a decisive stage yesterday when thirty three warrants were served upon that number of res taurants and wholesale milk dealers, charging a violation of city ordinance No. 299, section G. The arrests were made by Sanitary Officer Bert o. Brown, acting under the direction of ; City Health Officer H. K Beauchamp. Of the thirty-three arrests made, thirty of those named in the war rants appeared before Judge Thomas at special session of police court at 10 o'clock yesterday morning. In every instance, the defendant was found guilty as charged and was as sessed a fine of $5, which was sus- pended during future observance of the law.
 Since early in the month Officer Brown has been engaged in securing samples of the milk used and served in the various restaurants and eating houses. Incidentally. he secured DOT tions of the goods being handled by
 
 mitted to the Babcock test This test reveals the specific gravity, the amount of butter fat and the cream percentage. Under the city Ord- nance, it is required that such milk shall contain 2-5 per cent butter fat.
 While there were many instances in which it was found that the percent ages were in excess of that required by law, thirtythree instances were revealed where it fell below. There were several instances where the per centage went as low as l per cent
 In some of the restaurants it was ascertained that while the milk deliver ed to the establishment probably came up to the standard when received, failure to stir the milk when serving it resulted in the last portions served falling below the required average Other restaurants are sad to make Ia practice of allowing the milk to stand for time and then pour off the semi-cream from the top, using the richer portions in lieu of pure cream and serving the residue as sweet milk
 While convictions were obtained in all of the cases heard yesterday, off cer Brown is not going to rest there He is going after every dealer in the city, including hotels where milk is served, until he has found that milk possessing the required amount of butter fat is being served throughout the city.
