in her possession and was taking it to Mesa or Chandler, City Marshal Browning of Tempe was notified over the telephone to be on the lookout for her. The south side officer took up a position on the Tempe bridge and waited.
 When the car carrying the Rodriguez woman and her companions rolled down upon the bridge, the Tempe off cer called upon the driver to halt, blocking the way with his motorcycle. The Rodriguez woman realizing that she had been intercepted by an officer, proceeded to throw six perfectly good bottles of whiskey over the parapets of the bridge They fell upon the dry bed of the river below and all but one of them was shattered One remained intact and was rescued by Marshal Browning.
 AS a matter of courtesy to the Phoe- nix police, Marshal Browning brought the woman here and early yesterday morning she was locked up in the city jail pending the filing of a formal charge against her. She is said to have told the police she purchased the six bottles of liquor from a Mexican in the southern part of the city, paying him S22.50 for the lot She professed not to know the name of this Mexican.

Trace Plan to Austria


 LONDON, Aug. 15.-Some of the morning newspapers refrain from commenting on the pope's peace pro- posals while those which discuss them editorially trace their genesis to Aus tria, and either reject them abso- lutely or indicate the belief that the text when received will show them to be unaccountable. The Daily News, which, although a firm supporter of the allies aims, has decided pacifist leaning. says that whatever reasons hitherto restrained the pope from coming forward as an official cham piOn of peace, the long delay has ma terially impaired the advantages the vatican originally possessed for disin- terested intervention.
 The Daily News thinks it fairly clear that the pope's appeal was really inspired by Austria, but maintains that if his holiness can really persuade the belligerents to state their conditions in concrete terms he will confer very great, if belated, blessing on man. kind, and if he can further persuade Germany to declare it's willingness to restore the independence of Belgium, Serbia and Rumania and withdraw from other invaded territories, the door to peace will be open and a blank refusal by the allies to nego- most unthinkable.
 E The Daily Mail does not comment editorially, but in an introduction in it's news columns, says the pope's pro- posals are impossible and that the

scheme is really Austro German.

scheme is really AuStro Herman.
 The Times, while suspendlng flnal judgment until the text is available. says the proposals as described in the telegraph summaries are utterly ln- admissible. It expresses astonishment at the vatican's alleged hope that the document will be favorably received and lead to the not distant end of the war.
 "To cherish any hope of this, says the paper, "betrays a complete ig- norance of opinion of all the entente countries and the United States. They have all stated plainly, emphatically and repeatedly the only terms Whereon they are prepared to consider peace. These terms are quite incompatible with the telegraphed version of the vatican's proposals and there IS not the slightest prospect that the allles will renounce or abate them. The whole tenor of the document bears the marks of German inspection
 The Post, expressing similar views, says:
 ITO listen to a compromise before a guarantee is secured against a repe- tition of the ordeal through which clV- iliZation is passing is to hetray all sacrifice and suffering that nave been endured If the Vatican really is opti- mistic about the reception of it's pro posals, the Vatican shows that it is en- | tirely out of touch with the sentiment of the allies
 | The Post, taking it for granted that | the proposals are instigated by Ger | manyAnd remarking that they decided in advance on anything Germany has hitherto been disposed to discuss, at tributes her anxiety for an immediate | negotiated peace to a realization that the continuance of the war will give her much less than such a negotiated peace because she will have to face with depleted resources the full weight of new enemy, the American republic and adds that Germany affected tC l believe the United States as belliger- ent did not count but that illusion al ready has been shattered

ORGANIZE ID BE
 MORE EFFICIENT

Employees of the commercial depart ment of the Western Union Telegraph company's local office have organized a society to be known as the 100 Per Cent Efficiency Society, its object be- ing to promote efficiency among it's members. Similar societies are being organized throughout the country in the larger cities and is doing much toward promoting a high degree of efficiency amongst its employees. Their meetings will be held weekly in which general routine work will be taken up in order that employees will have a comprehensive knowledge of the duties they are required to perform.
 At the meeting held last night thir- teen of the fifteen employees responded to the call and after discussion of the general plans and laying out work for future meetings an election of officers was called. Miss Anna Scott Thoman was elected president and Lucille Ash CT secretary. Manager Hutcheson will act as advisor to the society.
 At the close of the meeting the members repaired to Donofrio's where a generous spread, previously arranged, was awaiting them.

In Own Handwritinu

ROME, Tuesday, August 14-The peace proposals of Pope Benedict were entirely in his own handwriting. The pope consulted Cardinal Gasparri, papal secretary of state; Archbishop Ceretti assistant papal secretary of state, and Monsignor Tedeschini, papal under secretary of state, in formulat- ing the document. Archbishop Ceretti, who arrived recently from America, where he stopped on his journey from Australia, is now supervising transla- tion of the communication into English
 The Giornale d'Italia says the papal appeal is the most impressive and most concrete ever addressed to the bellig- erents, giving them general lines on which peace negotiations may be in itiated
 The Tribuna expresses the opinion that the peace proposals were made on independent initiative and that the en- tente powers will not feel in any way constrained to accept them, although they will receive them with the defer ence due the sender.

Marie Rodriguez is a guest at the city jail Accused of transporting liquor within the state she was brought to Phoenix by City Marshal Browning, who arrested her as the ma chine in which she was making her way to Chandler was crossing the Tempe bridge.
