The object of the corporation is to make money for its shareholders in the oil business and not in promo tion or stock jobbng. The corporation will prob ably offer issue of it's stock to the public at an early date but enough cash hand before making this offer to insure carrying out the object of the company.
 It proposed to have competent men in the field to examine into and report upon favorable locations of acreage, with the object of taking them what may be called the unit system, having ample work ing capital to commence with. The company can thus as the public participates in the enterprise by subscription to it's stock-always have as reserve it's original working capital with which, after the first wells are financed, to go ahead and secure other properties. Only small part of the entire capital stock will be issued.
 The gentlemen who comprise the group which is financing this enterprise and who are all men of standing and reputation in irrespective commun ities in this state named below. Details of the organization are being perfected and the names of the officers of the corporation and its plans will be announced in due course, progress worthy of at tention develops.

It may thus be readily apparent to Arizona investors that through the means of the unique plan outlined above, every factor of safety to the small investor has been brought to bear. The very best business judgment in the state has passed favoraby upon 1t and these seasoned, discerning business men have backed their judgment in the most emphatic man. ner possible -to-wit-with their cash.
 This fact alone stands for safety and conservation. Oil profits are being taken out of the Texas fields today in enormous amounts. That the oil bearing territory has thus far been developed in but very small degree is admitted by every authority who has studied the situation and passed judgment on the future prospects, How much money of the many thousands of investors small and large, throughout the country is represented by and participating in these profits is matter of mere guess work. Some people attain the habit of simply buying oil stocks other scrutnize carefully every angle of their in vestments and exercise the utmost good judgment at their command.
 Which of these two classes of investors will receive and cash the largest percentage Of oil we'll dividend checks is apparent. The fact remains however, that profits will continue flowing out of the wells of Texas for some time to come It is the firm convic- ton and unqualified belief of every one associated with me in active participation in the ARITEX OIL COMPANY that a great deal of the future profits and dividends from this quarter will be diverted

Women Just Hate 1t.

women JuSL r1ale H.
The women complain chiefly about
the change of sunlight and meals in
chronological relation to each other.
They get up to get breakfast in the
dawn, and 1t is long time between
the evening meal and dark, they say.
Also it is hard to get children up for
breakfast now, which harks back TO
the same human body's habits the
workmen describe.
One reason the bridge collectors
advanced their working schedule an
hour Sunday was that the evening
shift otherwise would compel their
wives to get their breakfast in the
hottest part Of the afternoon.
The pleasure riding motorists all
approve the change, as it gives them
more time for riding in the evening
before dark, and after leaving their
Offices.

plished with about the same number

FEEL HUMILIATION

VERSAILLES. April 3O.-Count Won
Brockdorff-R -Rantzau, German foreign
secretary and other members of thc
German peace delegation arrived here
last night. The German peace mission
is practically now complete.
The station was thronged when
Won Brockdorff- RantZau stepped from
the train. a tall, thin figure with
the harsh features OF typical
Prussian junker. He started when
photographers set off magnesium
flashes and stood bare-headed while
the PTe:cct Chaleil said very coldly:

ment of the republic. l have the mis-
sion TO salute the German delegation
in the name of Colonel Henry, head
Of the allied military mission. which
will be attached to you"
Rantzau formally thanked the pre-
feet for the courteous arrangements
for the delegation and for their re-
ception. He plainly felt the humilia-
tion Of his position, holding his hat
in his hand and trembling violently.
The party then drove off silently to
their hotels.

BY ROBERT J. BENDER.

Word that the first meeting of the
League of Nations win be held in
Washington-if the league is ratified
by the United States Senate-awak-
ened tremendous interest here today.
If the conclave gathers in the
White House, the scene OF the epochal
meeting will be the famous "east" or
gold room OF the mansion, wherein
many events of historic moment have
taken place. This Is the only cham
Der in the White House sufficiently
large to house the delegates and
their secretaries during meetings.
Owing to the fact that South Amer
lean republics are numbered among
the original league members and
that the league resembles, on a great
scale, the present Pan-American
Union, an effort has been started TO
make the scene of the deliberations
after the opening session-in the
magnificent Pan-American building
here.
President Would Preside.
According to officials, President
Wilson, being authorized to call the
league in its first session. would pre-
side at the meetings.

First Meeting of League
May Be Held in Historic
White House Gold Room

October, when the first conference Is
due to be called. 1t Is pointed OUT
that in connection with the event
there naturally would be a diplo-
matte dinner, given in the great state
dining room of the White House ana
presided over by the President and
Mrs. Wilson.
There also would be reception at
which members Of Congress and their
wives would be present, In addition 10
the elite OF the Capital.
Former Foes Problem.
The event gives rise to one inter-
esting question: Win the representa-
tives of former enemy powers be In
vited to the function IL they have re-
established their embassies here?
Before the United States entered
the war the problem of arranging Dip
lomatic dinners so that ambassadors
still friendly with the United states
but enemies of the allies could at
tend. was a difficult one. Two dtplo-
matte dinners constituted the answer
at,that time, the President entertain
ing the allied diplomats and friendly
aeutraIs at one and the Teuton dip
'omats and neutrals friendly to them
1t the other.
No definite plans will be made for the
conference until the President re-
-urns. IL was stated today, but in the
leantime the officials. diplomats and
ociety lions and 1ionesses are having

which / am forced to by compul-
sion of the understanding which
underly the whole initiation Of the
present peace.
No other conclusions seem to be
acceptable to being rendered con-
else with these understandings
They were understandings accept
ed by the whole world and bear
with peculiar compulsion upon the
United States because the privil-
ege was accorded her of taking
the initiative OF bringing about
the negotiations for peace and her
plans underly the whole difficult
business.
Italy's WrOnES RedresSed.
And certainly Italy obtains un-
der such \ settlement the great
historical object which her people
have so long had in mind. The
historical wrongs inflicted upon
her by Austria-HUngary and by
long series OF unjust transactions
which I hope will before long
sink out of the memory OF man,
are completely redressed. Moth
ing is denied here which will
complete her national unity.
Here and there upon the islands
OF the Adriatic and upon the east
ern coast of that sea there are
settlements containing large Ital-
ian elements of population, but
the pledge under which the new
states enter the family OF nations
will abundantly safeguard the
liberty, the development and all
the just rights of national and ra-
. cial minorities and back Of these
safeguards will always lie the
watchful authority OF the League
of Nations.
And at the very outset we shalt
have avoided the fatal error OF
making Italy's nearest neighbors
on her east her enemies and nurs
ing just such sense of injustice
as has disturbed the peace OF Eu-
rope for generations together and
played no small part in bringing
on the terrible conflict through
which we have just passed.

PRESIDENT HAS. SAID HIS
LAST WORD IN ITALIAN
CONTROVERSY, IS BELIEF

PARIS. April 3O.-President Wilson
has said his last word in the Italian
controversy. This is the conclusion
reached here today following the
publication last night OF the Presi-
dents statement to the italian delega-
ton on April IA, in which he insisted
that Fiume be internationalized.
However. it is conceded that the
Presidents statement means a great
deal in the spirit Of compromise, and
it is hoped that the italian govern
ments and people will so regard it.
That portion suggesting the League
Of Nations as authority for the dis
position Of some features Of the
Adriatic controversy possibly may
fern an outlet to the situation.
The Washington times., 1919-04-30

PARIS, April 3O.-A statement ha
been issued dealing with the memo
randum sent by President Wilson L
the Italian delegation on April j.
with permission to make 1t public i
Italy.
A complete copy OF the President
under the heading Memo
randum Concerning the Question o
Italian Claims on the Adriatic," fol
lows:
There is no question to which 1
have given more careful or anX-
ious thought than 1 have given to
this, because in common with all
my colleagues it is my earnest de-
sire to see the utmost justice done
to Italy.
Stand BY Principles.
Throughout my consideration OF
it, however, have felt that there
was one matter in which l had no
choice and could wish to have
none. I felt bound to square every
Conclusion that should reach as
accurately as possible with the
fourteen principles OF peace which
! set forth in my address to the
Congress of the United States on
the Sth of January, 1918, and In
subsequent addresses.
These fourteen points and the
principles laid down in the subse-
ouent addresses were formally
adopted with only,a single reser-
vation by the powers associated
against Germany, and will consu-
tute the basis Of peace with Ger
many. I do not feel at liberty TO
suggest one basis for peace with
Germany and another for peace
with Austria
Insisted on Autonomy.
II will be remembered that in
reply to a communication from
the Austrian government, offer
ing to enter into negotiations for
an armistice and peace on a basis
Of the fourteen points to which l
have alluded, I said that there
was one matter to which those
points no longer applied. They
had demanded autonomy for the
several states which had consti-
tuted parts OF the Austro-Hun-
garian empire, and 1 pointed out
that il must now be left TO the
choice Of the people of these sew
eral countries what their desti-
nies and political relations
should be.
They have chosen with the
sympathy Of the whole world TO
be set up as independent states.
Their complete separation from
Austria and the complete dissolu-
ton of the AustrO- Hungarian en-
pire has given a new aspect and
significance to the settlements,
which may be effected with re-
gard. at any rate. TO the eastern
boundaries OF Italy.
Denies London Pact Applies.
Personally ] am quite willing
that Italy should be accorded
along the whole front Of her
northern frontier and wherever
she comes into contact with Aus
trian territory all that was ac-
