All Governments to Set Price
On Wheat and Provide To
SubSidize Bread
AMERICAN MEMBERS DISSENT

WASHINGTON, June 4, 1919
Advices from Paris are to the effect
that an arrangement has been agreed
to by all the most important govern
ments of the world for guaranteed
prize for wheat, and for subsidized
bread supplies. That handling the
wheat crops will be done by govern
ments all through this year and 1920
seems a foregone conclusion, and in
that case there will be but little pri-
vate trading in wheat. There is some
question in the economic council, how
ever, over the necessity Tor retain
ing centralized control of distribution
OF wheat and breadstuffs in Europe.
The economic council has had under
discussion the question about control
of food, supplies after the peace
treaty has been signed. Mr.. Herbert
C. Hoover and other members OF the
American representation in that cour-
Gil having expressed dissent to the
idea. Mr.. Hoover AYERS that there
will be no food shortage after the
next harvest, and that food control
as it now exists, will be unnecessary.
Mr.. Hoover contenda also that normal
trade negotiations should be estab-
lished throughout the world, as no
guarantees exist for other COM
modities than wheat; and if control
should be attempted in the other it
would stifle production and create a
shortage.

Second Pan. AMERICAN CONFERENCE
MINING MAN IS
kILLEDBY yAQU|S
IN SONORA

Advices from La Colorado yester-
day conveyed information that on
Tuesday mining engineer named w.
iP. Tevote had been murdered by
Yaquis. AS published yesterday eve
ming the story related that Mr.. Tevote
had been killed near Ell Progreso
mine, in La Colorado district.
There is no such district in Sonora
as La Colorado district. And the
Progreso is nowhere in the vicinity
of La Colorado. 1t is near the sum-
NIT of a high mountain, overlooking
the town of Batuc, which latter place
is on the Moctezuma river, about
ninety miles eastward from La
Colorado, as travelled by trail; and
more than 100 miles by the auto
mobile road.
1t is probable that the victim of
the murder was killed somewhere
on the road between La Colorado and
Batuc.
) Information of the tragedy was
wired yesterday from La Colorado by
Mr.. Harold S. Gay, who is operating
in that region. ss-+~--s4
Mr.. Tevote made his home at
Venice, California, and it is reported
that he has family consisting of a
wife and several children. At one
time he gave some attention to
Santa Cruz county mines and figured
on taking over the Mowry mines. In
Sonora he was representing the
American Smelling & Refining Co.

New Trade Routes Fixed For
Both Coasts OF The American
Continent
AIRTRANSPORTAT|O DRAWS INTEREST

WASHINGTON, June 4.-In the
second Pan-American Commercial
Conference now in session, at Wash
ington, today Mr.. Edward N. Hurley
Chairman of the National Shipping
Board, announced that new lines of
steamships will be established shortly
to operate between ports in the
United States, and ports along
coasts of Central and South America
on both Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
The new lines will include the best
steamers engaged in passengers or
commercial business anywhere in the
world, and frequent complaints now
given voice Of lack in transportation
facilities between ports of the three
Am ericas will be heard no more.
The chief complaint voiced by re-
a
presentatives of all Latin-American
countries represented in the con-
ference has been the inadequate facii-
tiles for getting to market the pro-
ductions of their countries, and to
getting to their own countries the
goods they need from others. "a
Mr.. Hurley said that by November
LIST line will be established between
New York and Brazilian and Argen-
tine ports; and that the former Ger
man liners Agmemnon, Mount Vernon
and Won Ste0er will be remodelled
for that trade. 4 All three of these
great steamships are large, COM
modious and finely appointed.
These vessels were interned in the
United States at the beginning of the
war and under the terms of the
arnistice they are among the ships
come to the American government as
a part of the spoil of war. They have
a speed of 231s knots per hour, and
will be able to run to a schedule of
nine days between New York and Rio
Janeiro, with five days additional to
go to Buenos Ayres, capital and chief
seaport of Argentina.
Good liner service will be estab-
lished between Valparaiso and
Seattle, with calls at all important
Pacific ports; and lines will be as
sured also between New York and
San Nrancisco, through the Panama
Canal. Where required American
line already in these fields will be
supplemented with larger and faster
boats.
Another subject creating great in
terest in the conference is the prob
able utilization of airplanes in COM
mercial enterprises in Central ead
South America.

JAMES RENSHAW
A Well Known Citizen of NOgales
With a Long and Creditable Re-
cord Passes Away.

At the residence of his son, Mr..
Harry R. Renshaw, on West Sstreet,
yesterday morning at o'clock, there
passed over one of the well known
residents of Nogales, who ended in
peace and quietness long and
notable life, filled with real service to
his country, to his community and his
family-Mr. James Renshaw.
Mr.. Renshaw was born in Balti-
more, Nd, May 10, 1887, and had
passed twenty-five days beyond
life of eighty-two years, in which he
had witnessed great changes in che
world and in his native country, in
which he had borne an honorable
part. When he was six years of age
the family went to Ohio, later to
Massachusetts, and afterward to New
Jersey.
Having received a liberal education
Mr.. Renshaw adopted the profession
of mechanical engineering, and was a
craftsman in the Novelty Iron Works
in New York City until the Spring Of
1860, when be was commissioned third
assistant engineer in the United
States Navy, and attached to the
frigate "Susquehanna," which pro-
ceeded to Mediterranean waters, as
flagship of the Mediterranean Squad
ron-first going to Vera Cruz for
time.
With outbreak of the Civil War the
"Susquehanna" returned home, and
was sent upon blockade duty on the
Hatteras coast, continuing in that
service on other parts of the sea-
board of the Southern Confederacy
until the war ended. Before that
time, however, Assistant Engineer
Renshaw, was attached successively
to Minnesota and Tuscarora, advanc-
ing in grade to second assistant en-
gineer; and being commissioned first
assistant engineer after the war, his
commission in that rank bearing the
signature of President Andrew John
= son.
While upon blockade duty Mr.. Rem
shaw participated in the engagements
at Hatteras Inlet, Port Royal, Fort
Fisher 1.-TWO separate occasions, the
latter successfully and Fenandina.
Just before the war ended he was
in the "Susquehannah" again, when,
with the "Miantanomah" that vessel
was sent to find the rebel ironclad
"Stonewall," which was done at
Havana. Lees surrender followed
shortly and the Stonewall was taken
over by the Spanish authorities, who
delivered her to the United States.
Continuing service in the Navy
after the war Mr.. Renshaw served in
various stations, but resigned in 1867,
going to South America and entering
business. Then in the war between
Argentine and Paraguay he served
four years in the transport service vi
the first named government. Afte,
that he was in business in Peru two
years. Then he returned to the
United States and went to, the Rocky
Mountain region, engaging in bust
ness of construction and installation
of mills and mining machinery, OF
running such machinery when ir

Later Mr.. Renshaw came to Ari.
zona, and has resided in Santa Cruz
county dozen years or more.
In 1862 he married to Miss Anits
II. Rogers, in New York City, by
that union two sons were born-Al
ferd S. of Ogden, Utah, and Harry r
Renshaw of Nogales, Arizona. The
widow and both sons survive.

What Other Editors Say
LET THE SUGAR BOARD STAY.

Southern sugar growers opposing bill
now in the agriculture committee of the senate
to extend the powers of the United States sugar
equalization board until the end of the year 1920.
In doing so they are opening up another field
of exploitation to the prohteer.
At present the price of sugar, despite its
scarcity, is being kept down by the measures of
the sugar board. There is present immediate
relief in the situation and Americans who are the
largest sugar consuming people in the world are
threatened with even more serious sugar famine
through the purchase of large portion of the Gu
ban crop by Europeans.
With the limitation of the American supply
from Cuba, which is our principal source of cane
sugar, now is no time to drop the regulation of
price and supply. Government regulation of food
may not be advisable in normal times, but until
production reaches its former normal level it is
foolish economics to destroy the powers of the
sugar board.-Atlanta Georgian.

CHEER UP AGAIN.

WE say the prices now are high, so high we re
stricken dumb we shudder when we go to
buy; cheer up, the worst is yet to comel The
shoemen say there are hides, and daily
leather grows more rare; and so the price OF
footwear slides ten parasangs up in the air. The
clothiers say there is no wool, the sheep dead
and on the ice; it takes some influence and pull
to get suit at any price. The bakers say there
is no -four, and so the children have bread,
and we are weeping every hour because
hopes are lying dead. The BARRIERS say there are
no barbs, and we must let whiskers grow
til they spread like noxious yarbs and wave and
wigge to and fro. The grocer says he cannot
groce for less than ninety-hve per cent; he sees
the sheriff drawing close when profits sink, is his
lament. And so things go, from day to day,
the whole blamed world is out Of plumb; but let
us all be blithe and gay; cheer up, the worst is
yet to come. The worst will come, and then the
slump, the big reaction will appear; and we will
carry to the dump the pirate and the prohteer.
on an equality before the law; the traditional
method of providing justice has operated to close
the doors of the courts the poor and has caused
a gross denial of justice in all parts of the coun-
try to millions of persons"
The majority of our judges and lawyers view
the situation with indifference They fail to see be-
hind this denial of justice the suffering and tragedy
it causes the havoc it plays in Individual lives and
its influence in retarding our Americanization pro-
gram -----.-----.
The effects of this denial of justice are far
reaching. Nothing rankles more in the human
breast than the feeling of injustice. 1t produces
sense of hepfuness and bitterness. 1t is brooded
over 1t leads directly to contempt of law, dis
loyalty to the government and plants the seeds of
anarchy. The conviction grows that law is not
justice and challenges the belief that justice is
best secured when administered according to law y
The report is based on a study by Mr. Smith
at first hand of courts and legalaid organizations
throughout the country during the last three years
and on his experience counsel for the Legal Aid
Society of Boston. The report says the denial of
justice to the poor is nationwide and is due to
delays which handicap the poor litigant court costs
and fees charged by the state which often prohibit
altogether to the courts by the poor and the
expense of lawyers services
Regarding the remedy for this deplorable sit
uaton the report suggests that lawyers services be
supplied gratuitously to the poor and that they be
aided in the matter of costs and advice by legal
aid organizations.
