 MADE PUBLIC

Another step forward in the regula- tion of automobile traffic in the busi ness districts, has been taken by City Manager Robert A. Craig in the issu ance of leaflet setting forth the Rules and Regulations for the Parking and Operating of Vehicles in the City of Phoenix as per Ordinance No. IFS. These pamphlets have been placed in the hands of the police for distribution and it is the purpose to make certain that one has been received by every automobile owner in the city if not in the county
 When q notice is handed to an auto
 mobile owner or driver, the number of his car is taken and a record made of
 the fact that he has been given such
 notice. The rules and regulations are
 now in force. According to Manager
 Craig one notice will be given between
 now and June I There will be no warn
 ing after June !, it being expected that
 drivers and owners will by that time
 have thoroughly familiarized them selves with the new regulations. Those who do not receive such a mo- tice from the police, may secure one of the pamphlets by calling at the po- lice station. The rules and regulations in full are as follows:

Ex-CoNGRESSMAN PLEAS
Seeks to Avoid Trial for Fomeatins
Strikes.

NEW YORK, April 6.-Former Con,
gressman II. Robert Fowler and
Henry B. Martin, indicted with foI-
mer Congressman Frank Buchanan,
Franz Rintelen, a German agent; Da-
vid Lamar, and others on charges of
fomenting strikes in munition plants
and on steamship piers, entered pleas
in abatement in The Federal District
Court here yesterday. A trial before
q jury to determine the validity of the
indictment was set for next week.
The defendants, who are alleged to
have violated the Sherman law while
acting in the guise or Labor's Ma
tional Peace Council, claim that the
Federal authorities violated their con-
stitutionRl rights by invading their
offices in Washington and seizing
certain papers and documents that
later were used against the defend
ants.
They also assert that the grand
jury which indicted them was improp-
erly impaneled, because INSTEAD of
having among its membership men
engaged in farming pursuits, it was
composed OF men drawn from the
metropolitan district wherein various
large concerns engaged, interested,
and concerned in the traffic OF muni-
tions of war are located"

7. R. PRESSES CLAIM
TODIRECT DIVISION
Would Serve in Corps Com
manded by First Class"
Regular General.

NEW YORK, April 6.-CoL Theodore
Roosevelt yesterday briefly stated his
case as an applicant for permission
to organize an expeditionary force OF
fighting Americans for service with
the allies at the front
In very few words-verifying news
published a few weeks ago-the
Colonel disavowed any wish or pur-
pose to take chief command of the
proposed expeditionary force; and. ad-
vocating a full army corps for ser
vice abroad. pressed his claim as "an
ex-President of the United States, Of
previous military experience" for the
command of a division in this corps.
According to the Colonel, all that
he asks is permission to raise his
division and then to lead II to the
battle line uder a corps commander
selected from the regular service.
The Coloners only suggestion as to
the corps commander is that he shall
be- zone of our first class regular
major generals"
The Colonel met reporters in the
parlor of his suite at the Hotel Lang
don late in the day. His attention
was called to certain Washington dis
patches which intimated that for him
to raise a ~Ivision of troops would,
in the estimation OF military experts,
establish an unwise precedent.
Colonel Roosevelt then dictated this
statement:
"I believe that our people realize
that the system of universal military
service is the only effective aid the
only democratic system. I, of couse,
most earnestly hope for the passage
of legislation establishing the prin-
ciple OF universal and obligatory mil
itary service and training.
"In addition 1 believe that the
people desire that in the
future we send abroad an
expeditionary force.
They believe that we owe IL to
ourselves an to the national honor
send q fighting force OF at least an
army corps, under the American nag,
to the front at the earliest moment.
