This Man Does Things

EDITOR GuARDIAN:-During the
reeenu vans in January, the road
leading to the north approach Of
the CHA river bridge was washed
away, according to statement
made by a correspondent. This
condition prevented people on the
Strip side from getting to San
Carlos by team, and while they were
wondering what they would do.
a man who lives at Central, but is
engaged in the goat business on the
Strip" got busy and actually
plowed and scraped his way through,
unaided by anyone.
This same citizen of Central has
put II miles of road in good travel
ing condition. In addition to this,
he divided his store of hay, grain
and flour among his neighbors, who
were unable to get to town.
This man deserves the thanks of
the people living on the Strip" as
well as the travelling public, who
benefit by his energy and willing
ness to help his fellow men.
Our correspondent, who does not
name this benefactor, suggests that
the people of Graham county should
send this man to Phoenix to help
frame a few good laws, as men like
him, do things and do it now"

Dams Fill Up River

EDITOR GUARDIAN:-As | have
had some experience in work about
water mains. cannot help thinking
that instead of keeping the channel
of the Gila river open, we are filling
1t with dams.
claim that it is cheaper to ex-
tend q canal up and to the river
than it is to keep up dam, and
that if we notice carefully, we will
find that it fills up above a dam,
thus throwing the water out of its
channel and causing it to make a
new channel.
If the dams were taken out the
flood would naturally cut the chan
mel deeper and carry the water
faster.
If something is not done soon to
protect lands from the ravages of
the Gila river. the floods will be
taking some Of our town lots.
am glad to hear that there is a
movement on foot to do something
regarding the protection of river
lands.

Warning to Auto
mobile Driuers

The attention of owners of auto
mobiles and other motor vehicles in
this valley, is called to Paragraph
2. Section 5l35, of the State Motor
Vehicle Law:
(2) Every motor vehicle while in
use on a public highway shall be p.o-
vided with good and efficient brakes,
and also with suitable bell, horn, or other
signal, and be so constructed as to exhibit
during the period from one hour after
sunset to one hour before sunrise, two
lamps showing white lights visible within
a reasonable distance in the direction
toward which such vehicle is proceed
ing. and also red light visible in the
reverse direction; provided, that motor
cycles shall be required to exhibit but
one white light during the period here
in specified.
1t has been the practice of late
for automobile drivers to use only
one white light, which in some cases
is used to throw the light in the
face of pedestrians and also on oc-
cupants of passing cars and other
vehicles. Only one light is also
used by many drivers in violation
of the law and in many cases no
rear lights are used.
The county officers are determined
to put a stop to this practice as
well as the violation of the speed
laws and arrests will be made of
every violator of the law.

PEOPLES FORUM
Personal Use May Lead to Abuse

'The congress shall have power
to regulate commerce among the
states" Art. /, Sec. 8, Const. U. S.
This is the interstate commerce
clause of the federal constitution.
Under it, in 1918, congress passed
the Webb.Kenyon Act, which says:
"The shipment or transportation
. of intoxicating liquor y
from any state or territory, or from
any foreign state or territory into
any state or territory, y which
intoxicating liquor is intended by
any person interested therein, to be
received, possessed, sold or in any
manner used. in violation of any
law of said state or territory, is
hereby prohibited" Every state
constitution is law" The de.
cisiye question appears to be: Does
shipping or transporting such liquor
into Arizona from out of Arizona
''for personal use" Ia quien sabe
phrase). violate the following pro-
vision Of the prohil ition amendment
of the constitution of Arizona?
Intoxicating liquor shall
not be manufactured in, or intro
duced into the State of Arizona
under any pretense" (that is, for
any purpose). Some earnestly con-
tend that this necessarily includes
and condemns the pretense or pur-
pose of personal USE" ard, that,
therefore. any such transportation
into Arizona is necessarily in
tended" by parties Interested" to
violate and does violate our intro
duce" provision, and consequently
also violates the Webb-Kenyon Act.
The late personal use decision"
reasons that the Webb. Kenyon Act
makes unlawful such shipments only
as are intended to violate some
State law; that no Arizona law
makes possessing or drinking whisky
unlawful. therefore. shipments into
Arizona for such use is lawful.
