THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS TO BE SPENT ON
 COCONINO COUNTY ROADS
(Continued from Page l.)

(Continued from Page 1.) cost of the improvements it recom- mends will be as follows: To complete the highway between Flagstaff and Williams, $120,O00.
 To be expended on Williams Clarks- dale road, $50,O00.
 The continuation of the highway west of Williams, s40,00O.
 To be expended on the Flagstaff Oak Creek road, $5O,O00.
 For continuation of highway east of Flagstaff, $40,0O0.
 If there be any balance left, same to be expended west of Williams and East of Flagstaff on the east-and-west highway.
 "We therefore recommend" the re- port says, "that the question of whether or not bonds of Coconino county shall be issued and sold to the amount of $150,0O0 for the purposes aforesaid, should be submitted to the qualified voters of the county"
 The commission further recom- mends that the bonds bear interest of 5h per cent, payable semi-annually, and, beginning at the sixth year, to be retired in the sum of $10,O00 each year until the entire issue is retired, making the longest issue of 20 years maturity.
 As has been pointed out before, the slight annua! expense it will be to the taxpayers to retire these bonds will be repaid tenfold in the saving of the wear and tear on thev vehicles, ten fold in the saving of time in travel ing, and much, more than tenfold in the increase in the value of real estate.
 It is rare opportunity to get two for one, for that is just what it now amounts to, the United States govern ment giving us dollar for every dollar we raise. By taking advantage of this opportunity we will jump at least twenty years ahead in our road building program over what we could hope to accomplish if we did not have this chance for federal aid or failed to take advantage of it.

WALTER LYMAN LIKES
 FLAGSTAFF RIGHT NOW

Walter Inman, of Chicago, arrived in Flagstaff last week and expects to make his home in this section of the country for several months, if not longer. MT. Inman has been circula- tion manager for the Chicago Daily News for twenty years or more and was compelled to take an extended leave of absence on account of his health; consequently, he hunted up his old-time friend, H. J. Gray, and will spend part of his time with Mir Gray on his sheep ranch south of Bellemont.
 q feel like a new man already" declared MT. Inman, within an hour after he got off the train. "This air ought to make new man out of any one, and I know l am going to like it fine. I have been up in Michigan and all down the East Coast, but it is nothing like this for climate. It seems as though, l know about every one around here already"
 Of course, since the Daily News only has few hundred thousand cir culation, it is some different from the Sun; so it was necessary to show him the intricacies of The Sun plant where he got lot of new stuff to send back to The News for them to use in handling their paper in an up-to- date way.
 Our chief artist, Jimmy Swimmer ton, is out of town for a few days pesterin' around the Grand Canyon, or we would reproduce the big smile that fit tightly over Inman's face after looking around for a day in Flag staff.

equal opportunity to claim some of | the prize money, for the classifica- tions are so varied and the premiums so generous in size and number that almost any woman or girl who makes up her mind to enter exhibits can hope to win at least one premium, and per haps several.
 In some of the needlework classes the contestants are limited to those under IA years of age, while in others no one but women over 60 will be ad- mitted. Special emphasis will be paid to plain sewing, alarming and crochet ing, and in one class, which already is attracting wide attention, prizes will be paid for the best boys and girls garments made over from the discarded apparel of adults. | Homemade bread bakers will have chance to show their skill and there will be other prizes for the best cakes and pies, the best jellies and pre- serves, and all the other nice things which the average Arizona housewife delights to tuck away on her pantry shelf against the time she will enter them at the state fair.
 Women who delight in the culture of flowers will also have their oppor- tunity in the classes which are open for entries of roses, chrysanthemums and other blooms, potted plants and ferns.
 In addition to the long list of cash prizes, first and second premiums for each class, special merchandise and cash prizes have been offered by en- terprising business and fiscal concerns as an extra inducement in securing entries.
 A complete list of these prizes, to- gether with full information as to the various classes and how entries must be made are contained in the premium lists which may be obtained from Wm. Beeson, special representative of the state fair in Coconino county, or from the following who have agreed to as- sist in the distribution:

 bought-and most of it installed in the old portion of the city park. Any fine day, from 25 to 50 or more chil. dren can be found playing in the park And it is not until 9 o'clock, when cur few blows, that the little folk leave this fascinating playground-where they not only have the time of theii lives, but are laying up for the future stronger muscles and better health and go reluctantly to their homes. Teeters, athletic bars, a big slide climbing poles, trapeze rings, etc. have already been installed, and fine swings and benches have been or dered.
 The money for all this was raised through the efforts of the Chamber of Commerce in getting private sub scriptions, including small amount in last years city budget.
 For the new part of the park, MT Riley says, a 20-year development plan is being worked out with the CO., operation of the Forest Reserve. He said that it is hoped to have the plan. with complete estimate of the cost of road building in the park, within a couple of weeks. This plan will be passed on by the Chamber of Com merce and the city council, and if ac- cepted will be placed on record, so that there will be slight danger of change in the development plans.
 "We can't make park in a year, " Mir. Riley said. Therefore we are working on this twenty-year plan, and in that way we will always have some definite object on which to devote such money as is raised by taxation or otherwise for that purpose"
 The officers of the Chamber of Com merce are; L. c. Riley, president; Alex Johnston, secretary; Geo. Her rington, M. I. Powers and J. w. Fran cis, executive committee.

STEALING FROM RAILROADS

In addition to running behind con- siderable over billion dollars in a year in his public management of the railroads, Uncle Sam has had stolen from him something like 70 million dollars worth of merchandise from freight cars in terminals and in trans it. About $15,000,O00 of this was taken in and around New York City. A great part of the stealing has been done by organized bands under the very noses of the government railway officials.

PROVIDES LARGE sum
Act Appropriates One Billion Dollars
IS Revolving Fund to Purchase
1919 Wheat Crop at Rate of
$2.26 per BusheI.

Washington, March ACCORDING to
veteran capitol employees, before
have such crowds Of spectators
thronged the capitol during the clos
ing hours of any congress. Galleries,
corridors and even the main halls of
the capitol were damned.
An effort by Chairman Flood of the
House Foreign Affairs committee to
bring the resolution for Irish indepen-
dence to a vote in the house was made
at 2 a. m. Several speeches were in
progress and Chairman Flood an
nounced that. he would endeavor to
suspend the rules to bring the meas
ure to a vote.
Admission Cards Useless.
Admission cards to the galleries Civ
en- by senators and representatives,
usually the open sesame, were less
than useless, their holders being un-
able to get up the two flights of stairs
or the elevators to present them.
The administration wheat guarantee
bill was completed with adoption of
the report by the house and is now
A~ouy " ASoiuChL WAiSoh 5i6hoIuA o.
The measure appropriates $1,000
000, 600 as a revolving fund for the
purchase of wheat and authorizes the
President to create an agency or agen-
cies for purchase of the 1919 crop at
the guaranteed price of 1926 a bushel
and to repose in the agency or agen-
cies the authority to control all com
merce in wheat and wheat products.
Republicans Fflibustering.
Renewed controversy over the
league of nations and the long threat
ened Republican filibuster came as the
clocks were ticking off the hours end
ing the life of the Sixty-fifth Congress.
Unprecedented crowds watched the
proceedings in both senate and house.
In the senate the majority flibuster
was under Roadway On the general de-
ficiency bill carrying an appropriation
of $750,000,000 for the Railroad admin
istration, while the house marked time

important Measures Fail Where
Session Is Talked to Death
BY Senators.
WILSON STANDS PAT.
Insists Extra Call Must Await Return
From France-FaiIure Of Rail Ap-
preparation May Mean Early
Return of Roads.

Washington, March 5.-Congress
adjourned at noon in the midst of a
filibuster by a small republican group
in the senate, that killed a long list
of important measures.
Among the bills that failed was one
appropriating $3.50, 00O, 900 for the
railroad administration, without
which, some administration leaders
say, the railroads must be returned to
their n before the middle of
April.
Gavels Tap on Time.
There was no turning back of clocks.
Democratic leaders realized the situa-
tion was hopeless and the gavels end
ing the long, great war session and
the Sixty-fifth congress, actually tap
ped at noon.
Just before adjournment President
Wilson, in his capitol office, authorized
final notice to the republicans that
their effort to force an immediate ex-
ira session had failed; that he was
mistaken in his determination not to
call congress until his work at the
peace conference was done.
Return of Roads Urged.
Senator Smith of South Carolina,
chairman of the interstate commerce
committee, and Senator Overman of
North Carolina were among those who
went to the presidents Office and
urged that since the republicans had
defeated the essential appropriation
bill the railroads be returned to their
owners forthwith.
After Democratic Leader Il. S. Mar
tin had told him the railroad bill coald
not pass, the president authorized Mr..
Martin to that pnder no cir
cumstances would he change his plan
to postpone the calling of the new con
gress until his return from France.
The president gave none of his call
ers any intimation of his plans regard
ing the disposition of the railroads.
Some senators advised him to return
them Immediately to private owner
ship, but the president received all
advice without comment.
Marks Democrats Passing.
Adjournment marks the passing of
democratic control at the capitol. The
congress that expired at noon began
in April, 1917, passed the German wal
declaration, and its almost continuous
sessions have been marked by unprec-
edented legislation and controversy.
Big bills hat failed included both
the army and navy appropriation
measures. The only two important
measures that ran the gauntlet of the
last AS hours of filibustering were the
Victory Liberty Loan and the $1,000
000, 900 wheat guaranty bill.
Suffrage Loses Out.
While Senator l.. N. Sherman was
speaking, Senator A. A. Jones of New
Mexico sought unanimous consent to
present a favorable report of the
woman suffrage committee on the suf'
frage resolution, but the Illinois sena,
tor blocked his efforts by refusing to
yield the floor.
