The Bankhead Good Roads Bill

In spite of unfavorable predictions two weeks the Bankhead good roads bill appropriating ESQ., 100000 to aid in the construction and improvement of roads within the states passed the senate yesterday This is substitute for the Shackleford bill in the house, carrying out the purposes of that bill in diff ferent way to improve post roads roads that may be used post roads
 The Bankhead bill arranging for the apportionment being based largely population would have been of much less benefit to Arizona than the bill will it has been amended, by making factor in the apportonment.
 The Shackleford idea of improving and connecting rural neghborhoods and bringing them into relation with larger towns and cities distinct from the gen. eral good roads in favor of trunk lines has being carried
 One argument which has been employed in favor of this bill and which has doubt been effective was that it would be part of general program of preparedness. That argument would not have been very forcible year ago. But times and thought have changed
 It is believed that the house will readily accept this substitute and may expect within the year that Arizona well the other states will begin enjoy the benefits of it.

 With this word to Germany and with this meaning put into virie communication not mere. wordy, windy. paintive protest. to other of lending belligerents would have the world talking peace. We have deferred much in the past to the exigencies of war in which of the fighting nations find themselves, and too much to the sympathies in this country with one another of the beilgerents; much the demands of American manufacturers and traders whom the has been godsend.
 If in the beginning had insisted rights s a strong administration would have done. the war would have been over by this time We have listened a lot of foolish meaningless and obscuring talk about q death struggle between de- mocracy and mlitarism. There is such flict though on one side there is democracy, re; publicanism and absolusm ranged against mitar- ism absoutism and despotism. Democracy has broken down. Republicanism absolutism and mili- tarism have stood the fierce test. But have really had only curious interest in the test. No principle has been involved in it in which we have had any genuine concern But while we thought we were concerned we have permitted one prin- cple in which we and all nations vitaly con- eerned be buriedhe protection of rights granted by information agreement.
 We would have no right force peace upon Europe for the mere sake of peace if we could do so. But if by our insistence upon American. rights we should force peace we should do so. and that have not already done will stand in Ameri history a shameful page.

GA few minutes later Chief Brisbois had effected Pochon's arrest and he was held in fifty dol lars bail to answer to an assault charge in Judge McBride's court this afternoon.
