HEAVY GUARD over
GERMAN NgERESIsIN
ARGENTINE NECESSARY
Deep Underculrent Of Hos

PreCautiOn Necessary
By Charles P. Stewart

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Buenos Aires, Dec. 22.-German- own
ed properties are under heavy guard,
police reserves patrolling all downtown
streets and deep undercurrent of hos
tility against Germany by street crowds,
were visible evidences today of how
Buenos Aires has been stirred by the
latest Luxburg revelations.
The government had prepared for
demonstrations last night and rioting
was quickly controlled. There were sew
eral spirited fights between shouting
anti-German mobs and the police.
Threats and imprecations against Pres
ident Irigoyen were openly voiced by
many of the rioters while street orators
who demanded immediate war on Ger
many were cheered vociferously.
None of Buenos Aires newspapers
have yet commented editorially on the
latest chapter in Count Luxburg's ca
reer of duplicity. Members of congress
indicated their determination to force
complete explanation from President
Irigoyen of the various implications in
the Luxburg letters alleging Irigoyen 8
extreme friendliness to Luxburg and
Germany.

Trading Quiet Today
On Wall Street

New York, Dec. 22.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
sion of the stock market reflected much
the same conditions as yesterday S.
Trading was quiet and price changes
were narrowly firm. Wall Street, or
such small part of it which had not
already absented itself in anticipation
of the Christmas holiday, was cheered
by the news from the Italian front and
at the same time found not little sat
isfaction in the difficulties arising from
the peace negotiations between the Boil
sheviki and the Teutons
Business was too thin to give ade-
quate expression to what might have
been strong market influences at an
other time. The steel group moved for
ward fractionally in restricted trans
actions. The copper issues were irregular
within narrow limits. There was scarce
ly any demand for the equipment and
munitions shares. There was some sell
ing of the leading rails, brought about
by Washington advices stating that the
president would not send a message to
congress on the railroad matter until
after the holiday recess.
Further peace talk was heard and
in some quarters it was apparently be-
lieved that Germany was desperately
short of munitions and copper. Some
selling was attributed to the war inves-
LEGATIONS at the capital.
Prices eased off in sluggish fashion

HUNT IS DECLARED
LEGAL GOVERNOR OF
ARIZONA BY COURT
Supreme Court Unanimous
In Ending Long Drawn-Out
Contest Over Office

Phoenix, Ariz., Dec. 22.--The supreme
court today seated George W. P. Hunt
democrat, as governor of Arizona. The
decision Of the court sitting en- banc
on contest proceedings instituted by
Hunt against the election of Thomas
Campbell, and appealed from the lower
court, was unanimous.
The supreme court IS opinion ends a
contest which began in November, 1916.
when Thomas Campbell, republican, was
declared elected on official returns by
the margin of thirty votes.
The controversy over the election de-
veloped into one of the most bitter pol
itical contests in the history of Ari.
zona. Hunt refused to surrender his
office to Campbell until. ordered to do
SO by the supreme court, delaying Camp
bells actual occupancy of the state
capital and the executive mansion, The
deWocratic party divided itself into
Hunt and anti-Hunt factions. When
Campbell moved to the capitol to re.
ceive the oath of office, there was
fear by some of violent clash between
opposing factions.
After Campbell was officially in.
Quoted into office the controversy sub
sided into one in the courts. Hunt
brought contest proceedings and lost in
the lower court of Arizona. which de-
cided in Campbell's IS favor, giving him
majority of 81 votes. Hunt appealed
from the decision and. today s supreme
court opinion is the result.
The supreme court IS decision is re.
garded as automatically seating Hunt as
governor. though it is to be assumed
that the formality of assuming the new
oath of office must yet be observed.
Campbell, though regarded Immediately
ousted from the gubernational chair,
probably will receive formal notifica-
tion from the court before .vacating.
Meanwhile Secretary of State Sidney P.
Osborne will act, his position cores
ponding to that of lieutenant governor
according to constitutional provision.

DRAMATIC SCENE
AT MILITARY HEARING
Manufacturers of Lewis Gun
Bitterly Assail Section Of
Browning Type

Washington, Dec. Responsibility
for ordnance and rifle shortage in the
American army was laid on General
Crozier, chief of ordnance, today by
General Isaac Lewis, inventor of the
Lewis machine gun, in testimony be-
fore the senate military affairs com
mittee.
General Crozier is responsible, more
than any other man, for the obsolete
equipment and the lack of any equip
ment in the army" said Lewis.
1t Is Americas Fight
In dramatic declaration that Am
erica is not fighting the battle of the
allies, but the battle OF America, Lewis
declared that it's a "shame and an
outrage" that American troops abroad
have to beg artillery from France, al
ready near bankruptcy and bled white -
The former West Pointer, who saw
his machine gun rejected by the Am
erican war department and accepted
as one of the pet weapons of the allies
told the committee his gun never receiv-
ed fair trial here.

Lewis gun IN great detail, said Col
onel Lewis. "It's telling it Is own story
today, on every battlefield in Europe.
The only zeppelins that the British have
brought down were brought down by
Lewis guns"
His Sons In France.
Lewis said that for the sake of his
two sons, now with Pershing in France,
and for the Esake of all our sons who
will be there before this terrible war
is over" faster progress should have
been made in equipping the army.
Lewis admitted he had publicly charg-
ed General Crozier with " "flim-flam-
ming" for fifteen years. =.

flared up later when he was asked

With the American Army In France,
Dec. 22.-Part of the Sammies will have
their Christmas turkey and mince pie
even if the special Christmas shipments
of those products haven't yet arrived.
The uartermaster s department did a
careful job at figureing today and an
nounced there was just about enough
turkey and mincemeat left over from
Thanksgiving to feed 100000 men. Who
the lucky hundred thousand will be was
an all-absorbing topic of interest to-
day.
However, the quartermaster is en-
deavoring to make up the deficiency by
purchase of delicacies from the French.
Such a plan will not reduce the French
food supply, because the delicacies will
be merely borrowed and when the AM
erican supplies arrive they viii be turn
ed over to the French.
Headquarters reversed itself in a rul-
ing today, permitting Sammies to cable
Christmas greetings home. The rate,
however, will be the regular commercial
one instead of the special lower hereto
fore in effect and which is temporarily
suspended.
One certain town in the American
Zone' is to have an elaborately arrang-
ed Christmas. French women today com
pleted a Santa Claus suit in which a
staff colonel will masquerade and dis
tribute gifts purchased by money con-
tributed by the Americans to about
fifty war waits For the most part the
youngsters are orphans, refugees from
devastated regions.
Great quantities of mail continues to
pour into the training zone. The Sam
mics are cOntentedly smoking real Amer
lean cigarettes and American tobacco in
their pipes. There are a number of ex-
eessively shiny-cheeked Americans at
testing to the assidious use of Christmas
razors.
General Pershing's orders to safe
guard the morals Of his American fight
ers as reported in yesterdays dispatch
es, is not an entirely new regulation.
Emphasis was laid today on the fact
that American military police for sew
eral months have been keeping Sammies
out of certain prohibited and restricted
zones in several towns. The latest or
ders serve as foreible reminders to the
men of their commanders determina-
tion to safeguard the army's morals and
sobriety against the misconduct Of the
inevitable few who, If not held under
restriction, might faint the whole army.
Every effort is being made to locate
immoral resorts throughout the zone, es-
pecially at seaports, and all such auto
matically are placed out of bounds for
soldiers. Full description of all resorts
is posted on. bulletin boards Of every
unit s headquarters.
It became known today that some
time ago a number of American sol
diers "swapped" uniforms with some
pOilus and thus endeavored to deceive
the military police guarding a certain
prohibited section. The guard saw thru

RAILROADS PREPARE TO
CARRY SOLDIERS HOME
FOR CHRISTMAS VISIT

New York, Dec. 22.-The railroads
want you to stay home during the
holidays unless you have to travel
for business reasons.
The Pennsylvania railroad, in an
advertisement published here today
under the heading "An Appeal to the
Travelling Public" urgently requests
that 'as an act of patriotism, pleasure
travel during the holiday period be
suspended, and that railroad travel
De voluntarily restricted to necessary
trips on affairs of business
The appeal points out that $4,000
soldiers in various army camps, grant
ed Christmas leave, win be travelling
during the holidays. In addition
other troop movements must be con-
finued and industrial workers engaged
in war work must be transported.
The Christmas rush out of the
New York to the west and south was
unprecedented today. 1t was practi-
eally impossible to obtain Pullman
reservations. Unless the pleasure
travel is eurtailed, conditions will be
even worse, rofficials said.
