some matters upon which he expects to recommend.
 At a session of the Legislature two years ago when Governor Campbell was the de facto Governor his rec ommendation of a bill creating a budget system for the State failed of passage through the expiration of the session. This bill is similar to the Maryland bill which is regarded as one of the best systems adopted by any of the States, and Governor Campbell will again urge it's enact ment.
 A general audit of all State insti tutions, which has not been made since Arizona became a State, will also be asked to name special auditing committee, to report back to the Legislature. It is expected that Inc 60 days, which is the life of the session, will be sufficient for this purpose.
 Governor Campbell will also rec ommend State Highway Commis sion, to he a non-political body and named by the State engineer.
 Another recommendation, which the Governor has stated he will make. provides for long terms for boards of regents for State institu tions. two of whose terms would ex pire every two years, nominations to be made by the Governor and sent to the Senate for confirmation with in five days after the assembling of ture As the term of the Governor is but for two years, the purpose of the legislation is to remove regents from politics.

NO WAGE DECLINE

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-Frank A. Vanderlip says AS long as the cost of living remains at it's present level-and it is almost certain that it will remain there--there will be no general decline in wages. This does no mean, of course, that some of the fantastic wages that are being paid in certain lines will continue to be paid.'

PRESS COMMENT.
PUNISHMENT OF GERMANY.

No one has throughout the war written
more intelligently bout Germany than
DR. Arthur Shadwcll His articles in the
Nineteenth Century and elsewhere have
shown grasp and insight far beyond the
ordinary He knows his Germany thorough
ly, from residence and long study. From
the earliest days Of the conflict he warned
his fellow -Englishmen that they were
| taking too lightly the tremendous job Of
beating Germany; and from time to time
has printed comments upon German
plans and German psychology which were
Of high value. Now, in the November
writing when the great German debacle
was impending though not yet assured,
Dr Shadwell argues for the need of in
sisting upon stern Justice in making the
final settlement with Germany and of
laying heavy penalties upon her, which
will be felt for generation to come, AZ a
means Of doing the German people good
IL is not as n paradox that this IS ad
vanced by DIR Shadwcll There Is about II
none Of the dubious sentiment: "tt
hurts me more than it does you 10
punish you hike this +" The thing Is serious.
The argument of DR. Shadwell runs on
this wise. Germany rs defeated, but not
repentant. Her armies have been beaten
but her spirit has not changed, he IN
snne pride, the mad dcl,IsioTls of the Ger
man people remain. Not yet has the poison,
introduced INTO their blood by the teach
my and the indictments of forty years,
been expelled And the only way to do it Is
by laying heavy burden upon them which
they will continuingly feel as a hard school
master To teach them view Of the world
and of German destiny wholly different
from the one that has been drilled into
them Having been educated 10 satisfy
greed by force and lawlcSsness, the thing
TO do now Is to beat IL INTO their heads, 10y
pnyAtion and suffering, that the whole
German theory WAS wrong; that, so far
from paving, i meant IN tho end vast
sums 10 te paid Let the German people
feel for the next twenty years that they
arc working and saving to make good the
damagc they have wrought Let the IRON
worker sav To himself. To-day | must
pay my wages to Belgium Let the ship
builder and the exporter be- reminded
steadily that their profits will for a long
tluc 70 to Serbia and France Only by
such severe discipline IN the hard school
of experience can the next generation of
Germans be led to abandon the nox-
ious doctrines which have made them q
threat 10 the peace Of the world. New
