The Redlight Bill
A Relief Measure

new hiH war introduced by Mr. Mallory of Pima appr0priating S3.250 for the relief of Joseph Cloud, the father of Leo Cloud. a university stu dent who was olectrpcuted at the uni verslty something more than year ago lt was brought out that q suit had been instituted against the state and another against the Tucson Gas and Electric company whose line ran into the university campus but the maintenance of which had been under the control of the university authori- ties. In fact. they had moved the line within the campus SO that it was near tank which young Cloud was engaged Tn painting when he fell off among the wires.
 A settlement had been proposed on a basis of S6500 and the electric light company had already paid it's share of that sum. The university authorities believed that Cloud had q good case eainst them and recommended set tlement on the part of the state The members of the house wanted to know still more about the case and in he afternoon Assistant Attorney Gen. eral HarLin was called in to explain the legal status. But some of the members seemed to be wanting to try the case right then and there SO that when the house finally adjourned for the day. the matter had not been dis posed of.
 Another new bill appropriated s10.- 900 to pay for the silver service of the battleship Arizona. This business had been in the hands of a committee which it was stated expected to receive con trihutiOns from patriotic citizens whose patriotism and their pride in Warcraft so far distant from the boundaries of the state had not come up to expec- tations
 So much time was spent by the house in trying to rearrange the list of bills on their reading that not nearly so many bills were passed as on the day before but the following were disposed of:
 Mrs O'Neilrs measure to accept the benefits of federal legislation making appropriation for vocational training.
 \ bill authorizing the board of control to enter into another contract with the city of Phoenix for the disposition of the sewage of the insane asylum.
 A bill for q bridge across the Gila river in Graham county near the town of Pima.

BIRTH CONTROL FOR POOR
But Birth Release Among the Upper
 Classes Advocated

Birth control among the poor is needed for themselves. but birth re- ease among the upper classes is g greater necessity, both for their own welfare and the salvation of the na- ion. Excessive birth control by those well able to have families sufficient for the nations growth weakens the nation at every point, necessitates the importation of indigestive foreign ele- ments, good people iE themselves. but poorly adapted to American life, weak L. ems patriotism. and erings about a mixture of races which makes con fusion of morals. dearth of art and literature, and conflicts between classes.
 Birth control among the poor is a problem, but race suicide among the middle classes is yadical menace which threatens by it's Influence to de- feat the highest ideals of the nation.
 There ought to De reasonable birth control by all classes based upon high deals for the nation and family. re sponsbility fer offspring, and refine ment of soul and character of the parents.
 Gradually man hai; been reducing his life from a world of chance to one Of human control and order. Finally his children will be the result of fore sight, plans, ideals ard self control. Birth control does not neces- iarily mean smaller families, but it does mean better families, brought forth and developed according to the right mingling of reason and love. America needs at present higher quality of population more than she needs q greater quantity: she needs more normal families of the success . Pul classes, not larger families of the unsuccessful.
 The number of children reared into lecent citizenship, not the number born in poverty. is what makes the American family happy and the nation strong. Prof. E. J. Sprague in the Journal of Heredity

WASHINGTON. March GA food cost investigation by the federal trade commission still is a possibility, de- spite congress failure to appropriate the $405,000 required for the inquiry. It was learned today that the commits sion now is considering whether 1t is practicable to undertake the inquiry on a limited scale with it's present staff and without extra funds.
 The S400.000 appropriation request was approved by President Wilson, who ordered the investigation and was voted by the house. but turned down by the senate.
 If it is found possible to release enough tmen from other work to make the attempt worth while. the commits sion probably will inform the presi- dent that it will go ahead

they attempted 70 r-estabish their lines Of
wheat sold out last week. as they were obred

From the top price however there were ~.

day were at advances Of 37s cents for May ~ cents

forelsners bought not only the cash wheat in the
United states but they bought the futures in
various positions in this cour>y As well a, in

The light primary movement Of wheat attracted
general attention in the market here today As
the total was only Led o0 bushels compar.d with
Eh"u' bushels a year ago There was a FUR
ther decrease in the visible supply in the United

which places the total substantially below last

In the World of Finance and Trade
STOCKS Range HIGH
ON new YORK LIST
Steel Leads on Improved Bank Posi-
ton and Gold Influx Prospect.

CBy the international News servfee.)
New York, Jan. S.-The highest
range OF quotations desired by profess
sional traders were secured In wall
Street today.
Steel was the leader, as usual. but
several other issues were prominent In
the movement Technical reasons for
the advance were found in the i'm
proved bank position in the expecta-
tion of very large gold imports in the
near future and in the constantly van
ishing peace prospects.
Stocks were strong at the opening
Almost Immediately a selling move
ment began that carried them down
two and three points in the active is
sues before there was any check. Steel
was the leader In this decline as II
had been in the advance. Baldwin and
General Motors were also weak.
Some specialties failed to recover
their losses, notably General Motors
and General Chemical
OF the highly speculative issues
Pittsburgh Coal was the most active
in the late trading, showing net gains
of the day of more than four points
Leather stocks were also active and
stronger.
Crucible Steel was one Of the best
bought stocks in the Street
Wheat and cotton are both strong
and the theory that the war will go on
found support in preparations making
for the bringing out of another loan
to the allies. Money is so plentiful
here that they are lending millions in
London on ordinary collateral through
private banks.
