HABEAS CORPUS
 GRANTED PO0[

George w. Pool secured his release on a writ of habeas corpus yesterday. Pool. against whom no complaint was filed, was arrested for his alleged con- nection with the shocking scandal of a few weeks ago when Ollie Robertson and Herman Asher were arrested on the charges of mistreating two little Glendale school girls.
 No charge was entered against Pool and his attorney. M. w. Woodward, yesterday contended that he was being held unlawfully, and the case was dis missed by Judge Stanford. The arrest of Pool followed statements of the girls that after they had been wronged by Robertson and Asher at Eastlake park they had come to a confectionery shop in town and the clerk, Pool, had al- lowed the four to use the rear room of the shop. Later Pool took the girls to his room for tn night though he did not occupy the apartment.
 Counsel for Pool pointed out yester- day that he had given the young girls refuge and his landlady had shown the girls the room which he did not enter He stated that in the morning Pool had asked the girls their parents telephone number with the end in view of advis- ing them of their whereabouts. When he attempted to telephone, he discov- cred that the numbers given him were not correct. He then returned to re- monstrate with the girls but they had disappeared.

 Carr's Ranch, which is the Medicine Hat of Arizona, reports total precipi- tation during the storm of 631 inches and total snowfall of eighteen inches, all of which was still on the ground last night.
 Crown King reports a precipitation of 4.37 inches for the storm, a total snowfall of six inches, all of which has remained on the ground. Will Hams reports a precipitation of only 1.66 inches, a snowfall of 5.5 inches, with four inches of snow still on the ground last night. The total precipi- tation at Prescott was 2.4 during the storm. Prescott also reports almost a record snowfall of fourteen inches only three inches of which was still on the ground last night.

WILD TURKEYS
 T0 bE RAISED

Wild turkey hunters of Arizona will learn with pleasure of the receipt by the state game warden's office of six pure bred Southeastern wild turkeys, one male and five females, from which a pure bred strain of wild turkeys will be propagated for release in the four game preserves of the state.
 The turkeys were purchased from a wild turkey farm at Blabon, North Da- kota, where the finest turkeys are raised with which to stock depleted wild game preserves. As these birds multiply rapidly when given protec- ton, it may be expected that there will be excellent wild turkey hunting in this state in a few years.
 Reports from deputy game wardens to the office of State Game Warden Willard are that wild turkeys are plentiful in but one of the four wild game preserves of the state, the Blue Range preserve in the Apache National Forest in Greenlee county. In the Huachuca preserve in Santa Cruz and Cochise counties, the Mount Graham preserve in the Graham mountains in Graham county, and the Pinal Moun- tains preserve in Pinal county the wild turkeys are very scarce.
 These last three game preserves will be the first to be stocked with wild

should, indeed have 100000 tons of freight
ers afioat before the end of the year.
few weeks ago the nation thrilled
when news from the Pacific coast that
a steel cargo carrier of $500 tons put
board 30 working days after the laying of her
keel and was delivered to the Emergency Fleet
corporation ready for service IL days later. But
the record thus set by the steamship West Lianga.
built at Seattle by the Skinner & Eddy company
was fated to survive only short WHILE
On April the keel of the collier Tuckahoe
was laid at the yard of the New York Shipbuild-
Ing company at Camden, N. j. Twenty-seven
days afterward. on May 5, the ship launched
65 per cent toward total completion. and on
May 10 she was in all respects fit to be turned
over to the government authorities. Her con-
tract did not call for her delivery until the middle
of June.
The West Lianga. it should be borne in mind,
IS ship of $500 tons dead weight capacity.
while the Tuckahoe is of $500 TONS and this diff
ference brings the, two achievements much
closer to equality than Is commonly recognized.
For instance, the Skinner & Eddy steamship
probably has In her getup substantially SOO,-
OOO r1vets. while the collier built on the Della
ware called for Substantially 10000 rivets.
When all Is said and done the rate Of prog
ress of ship under construction is pretty ac-
curately judged by the number of rivets driven
because the ultimate factor Is the riveting gang
and muscular effort and human endurance on
the part OF these men determine the speed OF
assembling.
The driving of rivets cannot be lodged or i'm
perfectly done II the craft Is to be put together
properly. and while exceptional records have been
made of late in rivet driving these performances
are in the main isolated and by means an in
dex OF everyday and universal Occurrences. Some
OF the especially expert gangs have driven any
where from 1.5O0 to over 1000 rivets in a days
work. but the majority of them do not average
more than 400 rirets during a regular shift.
How then was 1T possible to put the Tuckahoa
together between April 8 and May ST.
The New York ShipbuiIding corporation
about 10 years ago initiated the standardized
ship with the idea of producing economically and
rapidly numerous vessels Of identical form and
size

simultaneously the materials for the Tuckahoe
were prepared and accumulated % that they

BOLSHEv|KI is
HOSTILE TO The
JEWISH CONGRESS

Because over SO per cent. of the del
egates elected to the contemplated
Jewish Congress in Russia were Zion
lists, the Bolsheviki government an
nounced that it would receive no bet
ter treatment than was accorded to
the Ukraine Rada- At the same time
according to advices received by the
Provisional Zionist Committee, it an
nounced that it would assume the at
titude toward the Jewish Communal
Councils which are also anti-Bolshe-
able to it's rule. It was therefore de-
rect inquiries, the present Russian
government made it plain that it
would permit only an assembly favor
able to its rule. I was therefore de-
cided to postpone the Jewish Congress
indefinitely and to set up a National
Provisional Council from among the
Jewish leaders of all parties, proper
tionately to their strength as demon
strated at the polls and to charge this
council with the task of defending
Jewish interests. Based on the cleo
ton returns for the Jewish Congress
the Council will have a Zionist major
ity. In addition to the "straight-out''
Zionist majority, the Socialist-Zionists
elected seven per cent. Sixteen per
cent. were elected by the Bundists and
Unified Socialists, and the remainder
wre distributed among the Othodox,
Democratic and other groupings.
