FORMER GOV. HUNT SUES
 TORECOVER SALARY INCREASE

George w. P. Hunt, until last week governor of Arizona, yesterday filed a test case under the county classifl- cation bill, the former governor hay ing instituted mandamus action against State Auditor Jesse Boyce to compel him to allow his claim for back salary.
 The action was brought by Louis B. Whitney, a member of the commits sion of state institutions during the Hunt regime. The writ directed at the auditor was made returnable at 10 o'clock on January "A, by Judge Stanford.
 Former Governor Hunt claims back salary due him in the sum of $4,529.51 From March IA, 1917, to January 3, 1919, he was entitled to S11,776.S2, and received $7,247.31. The former salary of the governor was $4,OOO a year, which was raised to $6,5OO by legislative enactment which provided for raise of salaries of the governor, attorney general, judges and several county officers. The question was raised as to whether or not these holding office during the enactment of the law were entitled to raise of salary.
 The law was questioned, first, by members of the board of supervisors of Yavapai county, and the lower courts decision was that incumbents in office when the law was enacted were not entitled to increase in sal aries. The decision was reversed by the supreme court.

RAILROAD ADMINISTRATION
 MAKES APPEAL TO SHIPPERS

Co-incident with the withdrawal ot Food Administration regulations gov erning minimum carload for licenses commodities, local officials of the | IT, ited States Railroad Administra, on today sent broadcast to shippers an appeal to voluntary maintain load ng practices established during the war.
 The policy of the Railroad Adm:ni- stration in regard to carloading is set forth as follows by w. c. Kendall, manager Car Service Section:
 "The heavier loading of freight cars, the campaign for which has had the valued aid and support of the sev- eral departments of the government, as well as the hearty cooperation of shippers, has been very material factor in accomplishing the following:
 q. An increased car supply.
 2. Lessened congestion of rail roads, particularly at terminal points.
 3. Improved service made possible by lessened congestion.
 "Taking full advantage of car car rying capacity means more than the mere conservation of equipment. Ii not only saves equipment for freight which could not otherwise move promptly but also minimizes conges- tion and makes possible greatly i'm, proved service.
 of it be thought that the improved car supply which exists at the pres ent time makes it less necessary tc load cars to full capacity it should be borne in mind that a return to the ole practice of light loading would speed fly bring about another car shortage and congestion, by reason of the in creased number of cars required tt carry a given tonnage. Numerous shippers have volunteered the inform ation that it is their purpose to mak' the fullest use of equipment, main taining the record established durin! the war, regardless of tariff mini mums. They apparently realize tn advantage gained, which prevent use less waste and a return of transpor tation conditions which formerly pre- vailed.
 "The Railroad Administration wi continue its efforts to closely super wise the loading of all commodities, i order that demands for service may b promptly met and we ask the contir
