 We have your communication of April 1T, enclosing copy of your reso- lution of that date by which you re Jected cur application for payment of the amount then due under said con tract. We consider this contract not only legal and binding to the parties thereto but in every respect fair and equitable, so far as the interests of the state are concerned. The contract has been treated by the state as a binding obligation up to the date of your reso- lution referred to, a pe7:od of practical iy three months. During the greater part of this time the contract was an executed one so far as We were con cerned. The state has had the use of the property sold during that period and the full care of the same.
 We do not know what the condition Of the property is at the present time 1 There is consequently no equitable basis upon which we could consider a resolution of the original contract as
 suggested in your resolution. We
 therefore as above stated present our claim for the balance due under the COAli dCl' We Ieel JIi3J 1T you desire to give this matter fair consideration 1 you will recognize the legality and also the fairness of both this claim and the one rejected.

MULE DEAL UP AGAIN WITHNEW . PAYMENT CLAIM

The famous mule deal between A. A. Johns and J. Trenberth, of the Aubrey Investment company, and the commis- sion of state institutions, came to life yesterday when letter and another claim for payment was received by the commission.
 Last December the commission, then headed by L. B. Whitney, made d con- sract to purchase of the Aubrey In vestment company. some 6S head of mules and horses and a lot of miscel lJneous road equipment, at a price of approximately s21000
 The livestock was valued at S400 span. Mr. Johns personally filed a claim for and collected the first pay ment. The claim for the second pay uent was filed recently and was not allowed by the present commission which contends that the livestock and equipment was not worth that amount money. and even made some very lnkind remarks about the deal.
 Not only that. but they passed 8 solution, refusing to make the second aAyment and resembling the contract. This action was taken about a month ago, and the letter received yesterday was the first move in the game since

Statistics Show That Bad Roads Make Huge h. crease In Auto Operation Cost Good Roads Cut Them Down

Facts that will make every motor car owner in Maricopa county think seriously of the road bond election called for next Saturday are contained in a few statistics on the relative costs of operating cars on good and poor roads just made public The statistics show that it costs one half more to operate a business Ford on Maricopa county roads than on good paved roads, and the costs of operating oth- CT cars are prcportionately higher. The statistics were furnished by the chamber of commerce, after a careful investigation. A few of them follow:
 For the year 1918 there were regist- cred in Maricopa county. 3.224 Ford oars. Sixty per cent of these are used as business cars and 30 per cent of the others, for combined business and pleasure. The cost of operating the business Fords on the roads of Mari copa county has been carefully checked and has been found to be as follows:

SOLDIER MAY STAY
 HERE II A|D CASE
 OF WIFE IN JAIL

With leading members Of the Great War Veterans association interesting themselves in this case, telegrams were sent to army headq uarters at Fort SllL yesterday requesting that Tony Was ner be permitted to remain in Phoenix until further action be taken in the involved affairs of Nina Wagner, vile of the army horseshoer who is i'll the county jail awaiting trial on the charge of grand larceny.
 Mrs. Wagner was arrested on the complaint of w D. Thornton. who charged her with the larceny of Sl''eo in Liberty bonls and s1000 in cash Thornton, who is more than twice the age of the girl-wife of the soldier ls now serving a six months jail sentence for white slavery, having admitted that he brought Nina here from Oklahoma.
 Wagner yesterday attempted to se- cure a. warrant for the arrest of Thornton on the charge of adultery. The county attorney refused to dra" the complaint as Wagner would not name his wife as one of the defendants.
 There was much talk among the sol diers of taking the case to the attorney
 general. but at a late hour yesterday the matter had not come OFFICIALLY tu the attention of that office, although Attorney General Wiley E. Jones de clared that he had heard of the Wagner case and was in sympathy with the young soldier.
 Wagner arrived in Phoenix a few days ago in response to a telegraphiC appeal from his wife ito come at once.
 He was denied a leave of absence by | his commanding officer at Fort Sil and defying army regulations left the l post for Phoenix. He was arrested or his arrival and on Tuesday a wirt 1 came ordering him to return at once | without guard. The Great War Vet l erans yesterday received permission 1 from Fort Sill that Wagner might re
 main 8 few days longer and fight ou his affairs here.

MIR. FAMILY MAN:
Why Spend So Much Money on Shoes?

Here is what Tracy Munson of Joplin, Missouri. says of Ne6lin Soles; Judging from my own ex- perience. they wear four times longer than other soles and have the addi- tiOnal advantage of being waterproof and slip-proof."
 Why continue to wear eztravagant old-fashioned soles when you can get these money-saving, long-wearing soles on new shoes in any style you like for any member of the family? Good shoe stores everywhere carry them.
 And don't throw away your old shoes. Have them re-bottomed with Ne6ln Soles and enjoy the comfort of a re-soled shoe which is not stiff or clumsy. Ne6iin Soles are a dis covery of Science, and are made by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.,, Akron. Ohio, who also make Wingfoot Heels-guaranteed to outwear all other heels.

Total ................S.. .03S 1 These 967 cars operating at a cost of 3.S cents a mile would be s220,476 or a saving of s69,524
 Would Save S40o,0 Yearly
 Three hundred and twenty-two cars operated for pleasure alone, travelling 4000 miles each or a total of 1228 900 miles at a cost of .03S cents per mile on bad roads represents a cost of s54.- 944. The cost of operating these same cars on good paved roads would be as 2.9 cents per mile or a total of S37.- S52-a saving of s17,292 on pleasure cars, making a total saving for tn. 5,224 cars now operated in Maricopa county of s493,056.
 There are 4,296 cars other than Fords registered in Maricopa county-esti- mating that the average distance trav- eled by these cars is 1000 miles per car each year. totals mileage of 2l,- 480,0 ,000. The cost of operating is11 3-10 cents per mile on bad chuck hole roads total cost s2,427,24O. The average cost per mile of automobiles other than a Ford operated on good paved roads is ' 6-10 cents per mile or a cost of $1,632, ,440, or a saving of seS6,S0O on the cars other than Fords.
 Would Save S380,000 on Trucks
 There are S20 trucks registered i, Maricopa county estimated to travel | distance of 5000 miles per annum each Q total of 6,560,000 miles The differ ence in the cost of operating these on good roads and poor roads is five cents per mile, with a saving of s32S. 900 per annum. To recapitulate we have a saving on other cars making a total saving on motor vehicles Of S1 QA7 e5e each year as a difference between bad roads such as we have in Maricopa County and paved roads such as are contemplated under the proposed road l bond issue.
 This does not take into considera- tion the tremendous saving in the cost of hauling the crops from the farms to the markets, which at conservative estimate would be 50 per cent less with good roads than the cost at the present time.

 The cost of operating semi pleasure and business cars on bad roads has been carefully estimated to be as fol- lows:

war-by her great patriotism and 10y
atty. There was scarcely war activity
that has not enlisted the willing service
of Margaret Matzenauer.
For her appearance on Friday night
Madame Matzenauer has chosen two
works never before heard by Minneapo-
lis Symphony audiences. The first is
the Letter" aria from Tschaikowsky's
lyrical opera, Eugene Onegn." This
aria, or to be accurate, scene, is sung by
Tatyana, an unsophisticated country girl
in love with Eugene Onegin, being the
principal soprano role in the opera and
one which makes the greatest histrionic
and vocal demands upon the singer. Her
second number will consist of work for
contralto and orchestra by the French
composer, Chausson, and entitled "Poeme
de la Mer ct de pAmour ("Poem Of the
Sea and of Love"), and though given
without pause, is really in three parts.
The first has the individual title of "La
Fleur des Eaux," or, as the translator
has it, "The Flower of the Water" Fol
lowing a short orchestral interlude the
third part carries the title of "La Mort
de rAmour" ("The Death of Love").
Chausson was disciple and favorite
pupil of Cesar Franck, and the influence
of his master is obvious in many of his
compositions. Works of his heard dur
ing previous seasons are his Symphony
in B-fat major, symphonic poem, "Vivi-
an" and Poeme for Violin and Orches-
ira, played by Thibaud during the four
teenth season.

June is Historical Month in
Kentucky. Every county in the
State is now engaged in making
permanent record of the part
it played in the World War.
The records of the soldiers are
being made on war record sheets.
The records of the civilians are
being made IN the form of re-
ports of the work done by the
County Council of Defense, Red
Cross Chapters, Liberty Loan
Oampain Committees, Women's
Clubs and other organizations
which took part in winning the
war.
When these records are com.
pleted they will be bound in per.
manent form and placed in the
archives of the county.
The Kentucky Council of De.
Tense inaugurated this work In
September, 1918, by appointing
State and County Historians.
These historians are engaged in
the laborious task of compiling
complete lists of the men who
have lost their lives, those who
have been wounded and those
who have won special honors.
They are also making a complete
roster of all men in the service.
A special effort is being made to
get a complete list of the volun.
teers, aud those who have been
for long time in the regular
army.
The Historian for Powell coun-
ty is Mrs. Minnie Faulkner, Of
Slade. She needs your help.
Every person who has had a
relative in the service should
make it a personal duty to see
that a war record blank is filled
for such person and handed to
the County Historian. These
blanks may be obtained from the
County Historian, or at Til e
Times office.
