a particularly good idea.
lie came under the direction OF
Thomas n. lnce three years ago, fol-
lowing two years experience with

three reel pictures. In which he was
required to perform all manner OF
hazardous feats. Then he flashed
into stardom over night in the tlular
role of ''The Coward" Critics at once
proclaimed him remarkable "find"
for the screen. Their opinions were
strongly substnntlated BY his splen-
DID work In his succeeding pictures.
Totally unlike the weakling char
actors which he had played, Ray as
boy showed determination and dog
geo perseverance TO accomplish what
ne desired most In the world--to be
a successful actor. His father was
a formidable opponent Of this aspira-
uon. But at length a compromise
was effected whereby Ray, jr., agreed
TO take commercial course in col
lege with the privilege OF going on
the stage afterward In case business
did not suit him. He fulfilled the re-
quirement, then took advantage OF
the privilege. His first stage ap-
pearance was no good that his father,
who had been sitting down front, de-
cided TO give the boy not only en-
couragement but financial backing.
The Investment was shrewd one,
for now Ray commands a higher sal
airy than mary bank president and
enjoys an enviable popularity wher-
ever pictures are shown.> He is SIX

made the most damaging testimony
against the defense, were scored heav-

Shaw only when II became apparent
that Shaw would fill him. Crabtree
was unarmed ana selected the first
weapon that was at hand, n small pine

fact, so many cars got damned up Tn term inals they nearly blocked transportation themselves. The shortage was in motive power. So in considering the matter this year, when the war industries board fixed the amount of steel which 1t would allot to railroad use, we assigned to the engine shops every pound that there was a req sonable chance of getting into a new loco motive this year. Any engine builder who can increase his capacity can still get orders.
 Samuel O. Dunn, editor of the Railway Age Gazette of Chicago, using figures com piled by Slason Thompson, head of the bureau of railway news and statistics, has made a prediction that the new car con struction will not obviate shortage when crop and coal movements pile upon rail roads after October.
 The original shortage which was re- sponsible mainly for the chaos of last win ter will be increased rather than decreased, he said in a statement upon the admins tration's car building program, and | learned at recent conferences at Washing ton that cars have not thus far been turned out as fast as they might have been.
 "On March r. lol6 for the time for two and one-half years the American Rail way association reported net shortage of cars. This was due mainly to weather con ditions, and to an acute congestion at east ern ports It disappeared, and did not re- turn for five months. On September l. 1916, however, a new shortage was re- ported again; and net shortages varying from 34,000 to l39,000 cars have been reported every month since. This unbroken continuance of car shortage for more than twenty months IS without precedent in the history of American railroading. The car shortage is again on the ascendancy- now, and will assuredly reach its peak early in October when the crop movement, to- gether with the coal traffic. will further augment the demands upon the railroads.

SEND A SOLDIER TO CONGRESS"
Tueson Citizen.)

Announcement was made yesterday that friends of Lieut. Thos. Maddock, who has been with his unit in France since May, are circulating petition to place his name on the Republican ballot as candidate for congress this fall.
 It would be fitting thing indeed for Arizona to send a soldier to congress this year. Men now on the other side have been nominated in several of the 400 or more districts in the United States and with the expeditionary forces represented in that body, the members will certainly get some first hand information on exactly what IS transpiring on the other side They may send committees to inspect the trenches but they cannot take in the situation like the men who have fought side by side with the boys over there.
 There will be no pussy-footing by Ari- zona's representative in congress if Tom Maddock Is elected He Is a fighter all through He has been success in private life, he has been a success as a public ofti- cial and success as soldier. He will be a conspicuous success as a congressman.
 Starting out on the Santa Fe as call boy at Winslow, Tom Maddock rose in eighteen years until he became one of the best known men of the state There is no veneer about him. All who ever met him are impressed with his sincerity and earn estness and 1t was in that same earnest and fighting spirit that he left his work and family behind and joined the fighting forces in France.
 They can talk all they please about get ting behind the boys over there but the best way to do it is to pick few of them and send them to congress where the great questions of policy which so vitally effect them are. threshed out.
 Those men and women in Arizona who are wearing the service stars cannot do bet ter by their boy in uniform than to send one who has been through what he, too, has passed through or must later endure to represent Arizona in Washington.
