POLICE FIGURES SHOW
DECREASE in ARRESTS

only one or two Of that number being
for the latter. All the other cases
were disposed Of by Mayor G. II. Cor
don in police court.
Chief Brooks and one or two assist
ants have been busy for two or three
days getting the figures together for
publication.
Police officials pointed out last night
the great reduction in the number OF
arrests of women in the last four
months of 1915. The charge Of loiter-
ing in the streets was brought against
only fourteen so-called street walk
ers" in September, October. November
and December, as against Ill in he
first eight months of the year.
"You will notice." Chief Brooks said
in commenting on the figures, that
only fourteen women were arrested
for lettering in the streets in the last
four months of 1915. Glance back at
the figures for the first eight months
of the year and you will see that Ill
pinches for the same otense were
made in that time.
Mayor Gordon and myself made up
our minds sometime ago to rid the
city Of undesirable women, and we be-
lieve we have succeeded in carrying
out our aims" the chief continued.
There may be one or two still left
here, but we'll get them sooner or
later, and l predict that by spring
there will not be single one in the
CITY,"
January and March were the ban
ner months of the year, the arrests
in each of these months totaling only
thirty-one. July holds the record for
the largest number Of arrests, 173
persons being taken into custody in

Committee Represen tin g Both Farmers and Busi- nessmen Agree It Is Nee essary to Secure Scientific Advisers Here
A COMPREHENSIVE
 REPORT IS MADE
Institutions Get Back of Movement to Add Office of Market Specialist to That of the County Farm Advisor

For some time a representative com mittee of farmers, land owners and business men, have been holding regu- lar sessions to see if some simple, def inite constructive plan could not be worked out in this valley for better agricultural development and some systematic, scientific method of crop marketing. in the conferences of this committee they have had the benefit of the advice of Prof. Morse of the University of Arizona, and many mem- bers of the various farmers producing organizations. They have also been assured from number of institutions and land owners that if some practical plan is evolved for an improvement in marketing conditions which will in- volve a thorough marketing survey of this valley made by some man of eX- perience, training and high standing, that they will be prepared to back such a movement financially. Several in stitutions have already agreed, if the plan can be put through, to contribute $25 d month toward it's accomplish ment.
 
 ences a special committee which ha. had this work in hand, had a sessior yesterday with the advisory council O the Maricopa County Farm Improve ment Association, which represent practically all the producing and busi ness organizations of this valley. Tn report signed by the committee is a | follows:
 Salt River Valley Plan WHEREAS. A careful analysis O agricultural conditions shows that tn farming lands of the Salt River valley representing an immense investment are not paying the farmers such margin of profit as is warranted the remarkable and wonderfully diver sified resources of this section. w believe that this lack of proper retur is for the following reasons:
 l. We have no well defined com prehensive plan of agricultural devel opment.
 2. Although we have thirty fiy farmers organizations and six busi ness organizations there is no full developed central organization.
 3. There is too much tendency to ward individual enterprise rather tha toward community effort.

NEW YORK. Feb. ll.--Whiie wo- men have been employed as conduct ors on electric cars in many of the English and Scottish cities since early last spring, women motor operators made their appearance iu Glasgow recently. While but a few Of them are now being employed ct the front end of the cars, 1t is said that within few weeks more than 100 will be 80 employed.
 In Blrgingham there are over 500 women conductors and for the first time women conductors have made their appearance in London. The way in which railroad men have respond ed to the call for volunteers has left the steam roads 80 shorthanded that they have withdrawn many suburban trains. and the result has been se- were congestion on the electric lines. With the operation cf o limited num- Der of motor busses in London, the London Underground is so crowded that 1t is said that even New York CT would feel as much at home there as ln our own subways.
