Wickenburg May Have Aero
plane Mail Service.

The Aerial Dept. u. S. Mails
wired our Mayor of Wickenburg
for suitable aeroplane landing
station at Wickenburg on Mon
day and together with co-opera-
ton of our citizens, property
owners and President of Wick
enburg Chamber of Commerce,
he was able to reply on the day
following, giving all the guaran-
tees required by the department.
PHILIPPE Garcia, who has a large
tract of level land inside the
city limits and directly alongside
of the main highway close to
rail and auto arteries of travel, it
is stated has offered to donate
all the land necessary for the
landing place and airdomes that
may be required. Besides this,
it is pointed out that the Wicken-
burg Rifle Range offers untold
advantages for such q station
which is conveniently higher and
perhaps more appropriate for oil
and supplies.

Flies Garry Filth and Spread
Disc ases.

Flies, walking and feeding in
excreta fly away and walk over
food or on the lips of infants, or
they fall into milk or water or in
food receptacles, leaving a trail
of filth. Contagious sputa is
thus carried by flies from infect
ed patients to healthy persons.
With influx of tuburcular winter
guests and tenants, houses that
are vacated by them should be
thoroughly fumigated before re-
rented. There are very few of
the deaths in this city that occur
among our resident population.
Nearly all fatalities here are the
result of accidents, or among the
birds of passage" who come to
this land of tropical winters too
late for recovery, but whose lives
are prolonged by -all-year-cli-
mate that might have cured had
they come earlier.

A CHAMBER Of COMMERCE
EFFORT MEETS WITH FAVOR
Our Chamber of Commerce Gets An Appropriation of -Four
Thousand Dollars For Temporary Road Work
and Promise of More Next Year

The local Chamber of Com
merce has taken up matters with
the county supervisors that has
brought good results on road
matters and $4,000 is to be used
this year in repairing the route
between Wickenburg and Hot
Springs. There are assurances
also that next year there will be
ample road funds for building an
all Maricopa county road that is
calculated to influence the state
highway officials to accept the
Phoenix Wickenburg route as an
official state highway to Prescott
and Grand Canyon as we'll as to
all California points. This is by
all odds already the popular auto
route to and from California and
many cars go this way to Utah,
Nevada and Colorado. Before
state and federal highway COM
missioners find funds available
to build the Buckeye route, the
Wickenburg route will be estab-
lished. To this end our Cham
Der of Commerce might score
another point by taking some
action to put up signposts on all
roads leading this way.

less danger from white bandits,

'Wickenburg Should Have A
Fair Price Board"

diI i 1ICC DUAL Os
Geo. H. Smalley the newly ap-
pointed Fair Price Commissioner.
with headquarters at Tucson, act
ing for the Department of Justice
at Washington, in writing to the
Editor of the MINER last week,
has intimated that the govern
ment is earnestly seeking to find
a remedy for profteering and the
prevailing high prices. In line
with the suggestion of Commis-
sioner Smalley, it would be quite
appropriate for the Mayor and
Common Council of Wickenburg
to announce a meeting of the cit
liens and residents of this local
ity to discuss this matter and at
once form a Wickenburg Fair
Price Board.
Commissioner Smalley in this
letter clearly puts it up to each
community to take the necessary
action to assist him in carrying
out the measures required to
fix reasonable prices in our own
town. Butter sold in San Fran
cisco last week at 81 a pound, but
complaints were so numerous to
the Food Commissioner that it
fell in "a hours to 80 cents. 1t is
generally conceded the creamer-
les who are buying up the butter
fat obtained from dairymen, are
the cause of the recent rise in
butter which is put in storage
and boarded until the shortage
campaign" scares the public into
buying at most any price.
But read Mr.. Smalley's letter:
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, WASH
INGTON, D. C.
Tucson, Arizona, Nov. s.
H. B. Watson, ARIZONA STATE
MINER: Dear Sir The maxi
mum margins of profit for nee
essaries of life as established by
the Food Administration are now
taken as a guide in reviewing in
vestigations made by Fair Price
boards. These boards are to be
formed in all places and Wicken-
burg should have one. Some diff
fculty has been found in securing
men to serve. The board is com
posed generally of one whole
saler, one retailer, a representa-
tive of labor unions, two or three
m en-, or women representing
households. This board deter
mines fair prices and sends the
list to me for review, and in turn
it is sent to Washington. Any
prices found to be excessive
should first be adjusted by the
board.
Please let me know if such a
board can be formed in Wicken-
burg, and | shall be glad to take
the matter up and see what can
be done, Yours very truly,

Influenza is still with us. The
state board of health reports 282
cases of pneumonia for 1st half
of last year and 1892 for the last
half; broncho-pneumonia, during
first half 1876 eases and 322 for
the last half; in 1919 there were
282 cases reported during the 1st
half, which shows that there was
a noticeable decline, but it also
indicates that the infection is
still active and likely to spread in
this season of the year unless
precautionary measures are ta-
ken by public health officials.
