Penrose Holds Money Bags Progressives Join Hands
 With Standpatters

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-Atter three hours of sharp partisan con, flict with the Democrats, Republicans completed organization of the senate today by electing chairmen and ma. jorities of all important committees, including Senators Penrose, Pennsyl. vania, and Warren, Wyoming, as heads of the finance and appropria- tions committees, respectively.
 The Republican Progressives did not carry their opposition to Sena- tors Penrose and Warren to the sen- ate floor, voting solidly against a Democratic motion designed to oust Senator Penrose as chairman of the finance committee.
 All of the Republican committee nominations were adopted en masse on a straight party vote of 49 to AZ, the Republicans being successful in preventing separate votes on special chairmanships sought by many parlia- mentary moves of the Democrats, ap- parently in an effort to force a rec ord vote of the Progressive Republi- cans. The Democrats, however, se- cured a roll call on motion to strike out the designation of chairman" of the finance committee after Mir. Pen roses name. The motion was tabled, AS to 49. with Senator Borah, Idaho, and all other Progressive RepubI- cans voting for it.
 After the Republican committee se- lections had been made, the Demo- cratic assignments were approved

PHOENIX, May 2e-1 thorough Iy believe that within IS years Ari- zona will have a population of one million people," said c. M. zander, chairman of the state tax conmis- sion today on his return from a tour of the state making the annual leVies. Mr. Zander said that he based his estimate on the rapid inn proVement increase in agriculture in the state, to which could be add ed other natural resources suf- ficient to draw hundreds of thou sands of people to Arizona within the next few years.
 'I have seen alfalfa growing at an altitude of 73oo and at an aIt;4 tude of $500 feet" said Zander, "that had not received any irriga- ton at all. l have seen cherries, ms,apricots, apples and peaches growing on trees that had not re- ceiVed any irrigation water and not more than IS inches of rainfall" Added to the agricultural possibiIi- ties, Mir. Zander also outlined the opportunities in timber, coal, cop per- silver and other ores.

 The courtyard was filled at the time of the hanging by persons who had come out of the courtroom.
 Lynch's wife. baby, mother and sis ter were in the judges office when he was taken out by the mob. His hand cuffs had been removed so that he might hold his baby and he had just given the child back to it's mother when the men entered.
 Lynch is one of few white men to be lynched in Missouri.
 Capital punishment is not possible under law enacted by the legislature in 1917. An attempt was made dur ing the recent session of the legisla- ture to repeal the present law. The re- peal bill was carrier in the senate, but defeated in the house. The attempt was made shortly after the Lynch shooting and the chief supporter in
