UPON
NATIONAL BODY

Governor Thomas E. Campbell was
yesterday notified Of his appointment
as a member of the national committee
70 change Inauguration day of the
president from March to the last
Thursday in April
The reason given for the proposed
change in date is because of the unfav-
orable weather conditions which inyar-
iably prevail earlv in March and
which, it is stated, has resulted in the
death of two United States Senators,
an ambassador and several private cit
/ liens. 1t will be remembered that
| President Wilson suffered a heavy
cold as the result of his exposure dur
ing the Inauguration ceremonies last
| month.
Inasmuch as the proposed change in
the inauguration date would extend
the terms of the president and vice
president. it requires an amendment to
the constitution and therefore a two
third vote in both house and senate is
necessary.

AUTHORITY To
CONTROL CITY
BIC QUESTION

Authority of the Arizona corporation
commission to give decision in the
recent water dispute between D. b.
harrer versus the City of Phoenix was
questioned by Judge Sam Pattee of the
Pima county superior court yesterday
morning when mandamus proceedings,
instituted by Harrer to enforce the city
to supply him with water, were heard
in the Maricopa superior court. Judges
Lyman and Stanford were disqualified
in this case. so Judge Pattee subst-
tuted
When the case was first heard before
the corporation commission, the city
made no effort to introduce evidence
but rather argued the authority of the
commission to act. Regardless, a de-
cision was handed down in favor of the
complaining witness. The city then
asked for a rehearing, which was
granted.
Mandamus proceedings We're insti-
tuted by Harrer when the city refused
to supply him with water. Judge Ly-
man issued a temporary restraining
order against the city and the hearing
was held yesterday, morning
After arguments were completed,
Judge Fattee announced that he would
take the case under advisement and
would render a written opinion
In this connection the Tucson jurist
announced that if the city had author
ity to pass Ordinance No. ia, requir-
ing the installation of water meters
and fixing rates for use of same, he
would find the ordinance valid and
render judgment in favor of the city
If, on the other hand, he found that
the city had no right, the judgment
would be in favor of the complainant
and a peremptory writ would be ISSUED
