.FO0D RULES OF 1. NATION MADE T0 |. BE LIVED UP T0

Apparently not realizing that the prompt and strong arm of Uncle Sam IS behind the restrictions and regu- latlons issued by the United States food administration, there are sev- eral persons and firms in Arizona that are rot obeying the instructions given them.
 It was announced yesterday at the office of Timothy A. Riordan. federal rood administrator for Arizona, that there will be some licenses revoked unless there is a prompt compliance with orders. Particular attention is directed to the fact that some per sons and firms have not secured the necessary license to continue busi- ness under the regulation of the gov ernment.
 This is not for purpose of warning that this notice is given, it was stated yesterday at food administra- ton headquarters, for all time of warning is passed and the state food adnlnlstration now is preparing a llst Of those persons and concerns which have not secured federal li- censes under which to continue busi- ness. They may expect prompt ac- tion, with all the force of the United States government behind the of- ficials who will revoke the licenses. 1t was announced.
 Far away from Arizona is Virginia, but the experience of a firm in that state recently in the revocation of its license may be the experience of others in this state if firms here do not comply with the regulations of the faod administration, t0e local of flcial warned.
 As sequel to the revocation of the license held by Lester Brothers, wholesale food handlers in Newport
 News, Virginia, the United States food administration yesterday an- nounced that it had revoked the li- cense of the Tidewater Tie and Lum- Der company, also of Newport News. The lumber company had secured a license as dealers in potatoes and other foodstuffs soon after the Lester | Brothers were notified that they
 would be forced to discontinue busi- ness in any commodities licensed under the food control act.
 1 The food administration gathered l evidence which was conclusive that the Tidewater Tie and Lumber com pany's license was merely blind to
 cover the operations of Lester Broth
 CTS. c. B. Wood, who has secured | the later license, was connected with | Lester Brothers, according to the | food administration investigators.
 The food administration announced l that Lester Brothers license had
 been revoked and that they would be forced to close their doors by De- l cember 31. On December 2S, Wood | secured a food license for the Tide water Tie and Lumber company. Food | administration investigators took ur | the case and reported that there was no doubt that Wood was being made
 an agent for Lester Brothers, who
 were still dealing in licensed food-
 stuffs, although their identity was
 being hidden. So clear was the case
 against the lumber concern that theii
 license was revoked. Lester Brothers
 had been found guilty of violating
 the food act by refusing to accept
 consignments of perishable foods or
 dered by them, allowing them to rot
 in the freight yards.

Prohibition In Fl Paso

The closeness of the vote in Fl Paso prohi- bition leaves little doubt to what will happen to the liquor traffic when the question submitted the large Prohibitions greatest strength every where in rural communities though two large Texas cities have declared for prohibition. county has not large rural population, pet pro- hibition in the county defeated by only votes
 The friends of prohibition hopeful that they would carry the city but there many patent difficulties in the way. A considerable part of the population consists of those to whom prohibition makes appeal; there is heavy Mexican there.
 The hotel interests of Fl Paso extensive and influential and they and the general business inter- csts of the city cater to large and almost tinuous tourist trade. This element is quite different from the tourist wave which sweeps southern California; the latter being composed in large part of people who bring prohibition notions with them. Many of the visitors to Fl Paso there either for sport business. It is the gateway to Mexico whither flock thousands who have only a negative interest in prohibition.
 The small vote by which prohibition was defeated in probably the wettest county in all Texas may be regarded a victory for the "drys' and forecast of statewide prohibition.

have precluded any change in the uni- versity regents had such been desired. The contract with Mir. Lyman. there fore, irrespective as to whether it is good or bad, belongs to the admins tration of Mir. Hunt, before Mir. Camp bell took office.
 The Commission of State Institutions appointed by MT. Campbell accepted this as valid contract and went ahead with the work on their assuming charge in July. 1917. The contract in question provided for an architects fee of Sl5,- 900 for the plans and supervision etc. on S150.000 building. This would be on the basis Of ten per cent. Subse- quent to this contract, on August 20, 1917. the Commission of State Institu- uons under MT. Campbell, entered into a contract with Mir. Lyman whereby he was to furnish plans and supervision for buildings worth approximately st00,000. for which he was to receive payment of $6,000, or less than one per cent. Under this contract the building at the state fair. the Northern Arizona Normal, the Tempe Normal were in process of erection while plans hac been started for the addition to the state capitol etc.

The medals can be obtained at White and Wesleys, local jewel CTS, according to Lieutenant Crozier, who also says that a number of prominent Arizona citizens. including Messrs.

 The Americans have not yet taken any part of the line but they have taken part in trench warfare in a certain sector, suppose, with the French British forces receiving the finishing touch in the training for modern warfare. Probably compara lively few of the American soldiers have yet been exposed to the periIs of trench warfare.
 It is when the long lists begin to come in that We will fully realize that at and then will come the true test of our patriotism In some this reaction will bring it violently to the surface. It will be so with most Americans and then earn estly will they set about doing the things they called upon to do and the energetically will the government be able to do it's part.

INK PUTSPRESSURE
 ONFREDSUTTER
Special to The Republican,

BISBEE, Ariz., Jan. 30.-"Printer's ink never fails of getting results" was all the comment Senator Fred A. Sut- ter would make today on a mass of letters and telegrams from friends in different parts of the state urging him to become a candidate for governor on the democratic ticket.
 The communications came on the heels of a telegraphic item printed on Monday in which it was stated that friends of Sutter in Cochise county were urging his candidacy and wanted outside help. It is evident that they are getting what they asked for.
 Sutter's friends want q candidate who will make the race on straight out wartime efficiency platform with no federation for interference by poli- tical grafters, radical disturbers or bolshevi6ism of any kind. They say he could and would make a successful campaign in the primary on such a platform. He has declined to commit himself as to his candidacy.
 Close associates say that it would be impossible for him to undertake the campaign unless early disposition is made of important litigation which he is professionally bound to see through Surmise is that, moved by public spirit his clients will take hand in helping adjust this point

We Need a Zoo

Editor Republican,
 Sir: In proportion to her size, this city is probably as famous as any in the United 2tates, and with- out doubt has more visitors shan any place of its population in this coun- try. This is evident by q glance at the numerous hotels here, generally crowded to their capacity.
 Now, what entertainment has Phoenix to offer her guests? I don't mean in the theatrical line-many who come here have no desire 10 sit in a stuffy theater. but want to stay outdoors as much as possible. What outdoor amusement or recrea- tion can we offer? Our parks are hardly kept in condition to be ob- jects of pride to Phoenix. Take for instance, Eastlake park. This could easily be much improved without much expense to the city. A few animals might be added, such as bear. deer, etc. These would not cost much to secure. if little judg- | ment is used in their purchase. l have read that the estate of the late Henry Miller the cattle king of San Francisco, is distributing elk to any | city or association willing to pay | transportation charges.
 | We need a zoo, however small.
 Yours truly,
 VIM. A. TALLER.

The Parties to the Contract
 Phoenix, Ariz.,

InOeNlX, ATlZ.,
 January 31, 1918. Editor Arizona Republican,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 Dear Sir:
 l notice an article in the Arizona Re- publican of January 31st, and also in several previous articles. that you have alluded to the dispute between the Commission of State Institutions, the University Regents and the architect for the new mining building, as being over contract made by the Board of Regents of the university and the Con- mission Of State Institutions appointed by former Governor Thomas E. Camp bell. Your article further states that the incoming Commission of State h. stitutions declined to approve of this contract which was the cause of the trouble.
 l have no particular desire to bring up a question of politics at this time, especially in regard to one of the states educational institutions, the success of which is more vital than the individual political fortunes of any man or party, but l believe you@ repeated inaccurate statements should be corrected.
 The contract in dispute was author lzed to be signed by the Board of Re- gents of the University of Arizona on February 13, 1917, and bears the sig nature of Frank H. Horford, chancellor. and William J. Bryan, secretary. This contract was, therefore made by mem bers of the Board of Regents who had been appointed by Mr. Hunt at a time nearly six months before the first com mission of State Institutions had been | appointed. As you no doubt are aware. | the Board of Regents. in addition to pelng appointed by the governors. are confirmed by the state senate. which was in session at the time this con 1 tract was made. You will no douht TO- { call that the last state senate refused to confirm any of the appointments made by Mir. Campbell This would
