A TO
 TOWNSEND BILL PROPOSED

c. A. Long, national forest service engineer of district number three, with headquarters at Albuquerque, N. M., drew up two proposed amend. ments to the Townsend bill for a na- tional highway system. The amend ments were outlined at the suggestion of s. M. Williams, chairman of the national highway council, and were to be turned over by him to the author of the bill.
 The first amendment provided that nothing in the Townsend bill shall in- terfere with construction and main- tenance of roads and trails within the national forests by and under the au- thority of the forest service. The sec ond asked an appropriation of $105,- 000,000 to construct, repair and main- tain an adequate highway system through the national forests.
 Engineer Long, appearing before the officers and directors of the Ari- zona Good oRads association at their meeting for the formation of an Ari- zona division of the national highway council, objected to any legislation which would interfere with the work of the forest service or bureau of h. dian affairs in road construction or maintenance through forest reserves or Indian reservations.

News of Interest Gathered Here and There m tue State
SAYS GUILTY OF STEALING
 FORGERY MERCHANDISE

Noble Britt (Jack Dalton) pleaded not guilty to charge of murder in the Superior court Wednesday and also not guilty of burglary. He pleaded guilty to stealing Clarence H. Jordan's automobile, however, and will appear before Judge J. E. Crosby of the Superior court Monday at 9 o'clock for sentence.
 1t will be remembered that Britt was caught at Springerville some time ago, having in his possession the auto which had been stolen from in front of the Jordan residence. At the same time a quantity of goods stolen from Cadwelrs toggery were recovered, which had been carried away in the machine. It appears that murder had been committed in the western part of the state in which it was be- iieved he was implicated. Britt claims that he did not steal the Caldwell goods, but admits that he did appro- priate the auto and drove away with the goods.-Holbrook Tribune.

SPECIAL AGENT TELLS OF
 BIG SEIZURE OF SUGAR

Special Agent Frank Smith of the department of justice returned from Tucson, where he had attended con- ference of federal officers and food administration agents with the United States district attorney. He reported the arrest of Lee Hop, Tucson China man, who is alleged to have stored a large quantity of sugar, 15,000 pounds of which have been seized by govern ment officers.
 This sugar, officers say, was sold by Hop to both retail and and wholesale trade at prices ranging from 15 to 25 cents pound. Hop is the first per son to be arrested in Arizona under the federal law against food hoarding and profiteering. A rigid investiga- tion of prices of food and other com modities has been conducted all over the state by government officers for some time past, and it is intimated that other arrests are to follow.

HIGHWAY COMMISSION
 PRESSING FOR AID
 FROM GOVERNMENT

The state highway commission is pressing the federal aid for the com pletion of the contemplated 55 miles of road from Geronimo to Clifton on the states main east and west high way, extending from Yuma to the New Mexico line, it was announced by the commission. It was said the com mission hoped not only to conserve the states fluids by securing Federal as- sistance in the project, but also to se- cure completion of the work in two years instead of the five that would be necessary without such co-opera- tion. F. M. Hoimquist, the commits sion's engineer, estimated the cost of the road at $620,000, of which the government is asked to furnish one half.
 Reluctance of the government to participate in the road construction was said by commission officials to be based on the post-road factor. State Engineer Thomas Maddock said he wrote to J. w. Moore, resident engi- neer for the national highway board, that Arizona would find itself under a heavy handicap if usage for a post road were to determine the extent of government participation in highway construction, as typographical condi- tions in the state made it customary for postal routes to develop first along the railroad lines. He foresaw little probability of mail route de- veloping along the Clifton Geronimo line, while insisting that the impor. tance of the link was considerable. He said as most of the 55 miles of survey lay within the San Carlos or White mountain Indian reservations, he believed the government should do all the work, but was willing for the state to carry some of the burden.

HONEST TAXPAYER PAYS
 FOR THE DELINQUENTS

Speaking of the report of the State Tax Commission, in which it is shown that the total delinquent taxes of the state amount to $S99,8S4, the Snow flake Herald makes this very forceful comment on the subject of delin- quents:
 "It can be seen from the above de- linquent tax list that the burden of taxation is not equally borne by the taxpayers, while many citizens escape altogether the same as Indians.
 "In making the tax levy each year a certain percentage of delinquency is figured on and the fellow who comes forward and pays up regularly gets the worst of the deal. There is usu- ally long list of delinquents and the same names frequently appear as such each year. These are seldom molested by the tax collecting officials of the county, as it is never good politics for county officers to attempt to force payment in view of the approaching election.
 "The taxes on unsecured personal property are supposed to be collected or a bond taken for the same at the time of assessment, They should
 
 never be entered on the delinquent tax roll, as the assessor is personally liable for them. If such were entered in this county the amount as shown in the above list as being delinquent would be very materially increased. There is such thing as letting such matters slip along too easily for DO, litical reasons and the sake of good fellowship. In justice to the taxpay- CTS who keep in the clear it is only fair to suggest to the county attorney that it is high time the tax delin- ouency in-Navajo county be reduced even if it is found necessary to make collections through the court. A square deal will not hurt anybody and the fellow who refuses to pay his part of the public expense and the officer who neglects to enforce the law should be held to account

WORK ON LYMAN DAM STOPPED

Work on the Lyman reservoir was brought to sudden stop yesterday morning when telegram was re- ceived from Phoenix from those who have the handling of the financing of the project. There are various re. ports abroad as to the reason of the closing down, but as no one seems to know just why it was done, we will not give any one of the reasons that are going the rounds.
 Everybody is concerned about the shutdown and all are hoping that it will only be temporarily and that it will be only matter of few days before all will be moving along better than ever.
 Those who had their teams at work on the dam have been notified to come and get them.
 Some of the state officials were here last week looking into affairs at the dam and there is no doubt but what the order to shut down is a result Of that visit-St. Johns Herald.

DIR. F. C. NORMAN ANNOUNCES
 SUCCESS WITH TUBERCULOSIS

Dr. Franklin c. Norman, a prac. ticing physician of Phoenix in good standing with the medical fraternity of the city, believes that he has discov- cred medicine that is remedy for tuberculosis. Dr. Norman character izes the remedy as 'very helpful in the treatment of the disease.' The verdict of eminent specialists in the disease as to the virtue of the medi- cine has been sought by the discoverer and it is now being investigated by them. If he continues to achieve re :. suits with patients such as his rec ords reveal, and if others secure such results, it is likely that the discov- cry will be hailed by the public as a speedy and sure cure.

Word has just come to Lake Divis-

even more imperative than food. That
is the substance of a statement con-
tanned in the report of fifty investiga-
tors of the American Red Cross work.

cred in and about Paris. The report
says:
Most of the refugee families man
age to nourish themselves on the Gov
eminent. allowance and their small
wages, but they are by no means able
to clothe themselves. AS the present
prices OF clothing in France are pro-
hibitive, the need for this kind OF as
sistance is obvious. Accordingly, we
decided to give food only when spe-
cial nourishment was ordered by a
physician, but to continue to look af-
ter the clothing need as imperative"

Now that the conflict is over and the
occupied territories Of France and
Belgium have been liberated, these re-
fugees are Fastening back to their for
mer homes in large numbers. They
have no thought Of the ruins, the cold
weather, or their condition as regards
sufficient clothing, only the longing to
get back to their homes occupy their
minds.

GERMAN army
IS LIMITED TO
100000 men
supreme War Council Settles Matter
Of Germany's Army-Only lOOOO
Men Allowed to Belong
Other Matters Settled.

Paris, March 1.-THE Supreme war
Council yesterday finally adopted the
military terms Of German disarma-
ment. These provide for an army or
100000 men, enlisted for IL years.
The Supreme Council also settled
the disputed question of representa-
ton Of the small powers on the eco
nomical and financial commissions OF
the peace conference by deciding to
name the representatives itself, thus
eliminating all contention between the
European and Latin-American coun-
tries as to proportionate representa-
ton.
This decision was rachel on re-
mort of M. Pichon, the French Foreign
Minister, which recommended that ma
tions like Brazil, Panama and Cuba
which had special interests involved
in the action Of these commissions, or
which had taken some part in the war,
should be represented in any case.
The small nations had asked that
their representation be Increased to
ten members, in order to satisfy all
parties. The council decided to in
crease their representation to seven
members on each commission to be
selected by the council itself.
Following the meeting of the Com
mittee on Ports, Waterways and Rail-
ways, this report was issued:
"The Committee on the Information
