 THOUSAND AUTOS

Secretary of State Sidney Osborne, who has been in the city for the past few days renewing old acquaintances and making new ones. left last evening for his home in Phoenix.
 MT Osborne before leaving stated that the increase in the number of automobiles in Arizona was remark able. At the close of business in his office on November 30th, there had been issued during the year 19,762 motor vehicle licenses. and it is his opinion that the number will reach nearly 10000 by the first of January. The total amount of money received for motor vehicle fees during the Il months of this year was s109,625, thus making it one of the largest sources of income of the state. During the same length of time there were issued S66 motorcycle licenses, the fees of which amounted to s1,609. Chauf- feurs licenses were S95 in number and fees amounted to S3,4S3. Official transfers of motor vehicle licenses to the number of 1,013 were recorded during the II months, bringing in ST. 527.15 in fees. Many hundreds of other licenses changed hands, but no official transfers were recorded.

ARIZONA BAKERIES
 SOON UNDER EYES
 OF THE GOVERNMENT

Every bakery in Arizona using more than 10 barrels of four a month will on Monday, December 10, be placed under government control
 Plans for the enforcement of the rules and regulations under which these bak keries must operate are now in course of preparation at the office f Tir'othy A. Riordap, federal food administrator for this state.
 The rules which will go into effect in Arizona with the licensing of the bakeries are aimed to prevent:
 1. Movement of goods to the con sumer in any but the most direct line possible and with minimum delay.
 2. Licenses dealing in food com mcdities for the purpose of creating a monopoly.
 3. The destruction of bakery prod ucts or the commission of other waste
 4. The return of stale bread or crediting the retailer for unsold bak- cry products. tt1
 ). The manufacture of bread except in 16-ounce or 24-ounce units or null tiples thereof.
 In explaining the scope of the new regime and it's application to the bakers of Arizona, Timothy A. Rior- dan, head of the state, food administra- tion. said:
 Standardization of bakers bread throughout the nation was the first aim of the presidents proclamation placing the bakeries under federal li- cense. And the object of stanardiza- ton is to reduce the cost of public baking and distribution. ta reduce the waste of flour and to limit the use of sugar and lard in the preparation of bakery bread. By fixing the unit of weight at one pound and with a stabilized price of flour the present differences in quality will tend to vanish, and for the period Of the war competition will be reduced to a mat ter of price and service.
 There is nothing harsh or unjust in any of these regulations. in that all are placed on the same plane. Some of the regulations imposed call for the very things which the bakers have long desired, but were prevented from adopting because of competition. For instance. investigations show that a large portion of returned stale bread for which the retailer was credited was actually destroyed and that the amount of good wheat flour lost to the nation in this one item has amounted annually to more than half million barrels.
 In view of an apparent misunder- standing it was stated that all appli- cations for licenses should he made direct to the United States food ad- ministration, license division, legal department. Washington. D. C.

No other lump coal, except the two above named. is available at this time for domestic purposes. The Gallup, or New Mexico coal, except mine run, is not to be had for domestic pur- poses.
 Reports from all over the United States show that the cost of coal is much higher than it has ever been before. This is explained by the in creased consumption of the mineral and the shortage due to labor dis turbances and congested condition of railroad transportation.
 A shortage of coal is said to exist in this district at this time, as in other parts. and it was agreed by the committee that the retail price of S2O per ton was a just one.
 The local fuel administration com mittee is composed of Mayor Brick son. B. T. Watkins and William De- bridge. [ B. l.. Smith, chairman the county board, also met with the local committee.
