Railroad to Gulf of California
to be Constructed

Construction of a railroad to an
outlet on the Gulf of California,
for which surveys are being made,
is looked upon as having an impor-
tant bearing upon future develop
ment in the Southwest.
The road to tidewater is expect
ed to be constructed from Ajo, in
Pima county, to San Jorge Bay,
Sonora. Mexico, a distance of
about ninety miles. Under con-
cessions granted by the Mexican
government for the right of way
over the fifty miles of the route
which would be constructed in So
nora, it is said that ample time re-
mains for the building of the line.
When the road reaches San Jorge
Bay, a thirty-fve year old dream
of Arizonans will be realized. The
railroad is looked to to furnished
an ocean outlet for copper matte
shipments to eastern refineries by
way of the Pacific Ocean through
the Panama Canal. Of secondary
importance would be the outlet for
cotton and other agricultural pro-
ducts.
A tentative route for the railway
runs slightly west of south to Qui-
tobaquito, just north of the inter-
national boundary, thence down
the valley east of Pinacate peak in
Mexico, and then turns westward
toward San Jorge Bay. Surveyors
of the road are working across the
line in Mexico.
San Jorge Bay is described as a
we'll protected harbor, but shallow:
one in which a great deal of work
would have to be done. Summer
tides in the north end of the Gulf
of California are said to be the
largest on either coast, outside of
the Bay of Fundy, being forty feet

FOR CHRISTMAS
IS i, s. APPEAL
Governor Calkins Urges Gov.
ernrnent Securities for Pres
ents Instead Of Luxuries

Governor John u Calkins of the
has written a letter to all banks and
trust companies in the Twelfth Fed
eral Reserve District urging them to
promote, wherever possible, the sale
Of War Savings Stamps and Treasury
Savings Certificates for Christmas
presents this year.
The increased demand for these
Government securities, the Treasury
Savings Certificates being similar to
War Savings Stamps in denominations
of 500 and $1,000, is apparent from
the fact that the Federal Reserve
Bank supplied $60,2O0 worth of
Treasury Savings Certificates to eigh-
teen banks in the district on Novem-
Der 20, which is the largest amount
sold in one day since the close of the
war. On the face of the demand Of
these eighteen banks and the in
creased call for the securities from
all postoffices throughout the Twelfth
Federal Reserve District, it would
slogan, "Give War Savings Stamp
or Treasury Savings Certificate for
Christmas" is being followed out,
and the Government is hoping that by
giving War Savings Stamps and
Treasury Savings Certificates for
Christmas gifts the district will close
ly approximate it's War Savings quota
for the year.
A portion of Governor Calkins' let
ter follows:
"The Christmas holidays are al
most upon us. Everything points to
a tremendous outlay of money in the
purchase of holiday gifts, the greater
portion of which I think am safe in
saying will be luxuries. The present
situation demands not that more
money be spent in the purchase of
luxuries, but that we curtail as much
as possible, with the consequent bene-
fetal contraction of credit.
Therefore, I appeal to you as a
fellow banker to do everything within
your power to stimulate the purchase
and giving OF War Savings Stamps
and Treasury Savings Certificates as
Christmas presents in place of the US
ual needless and expensive gifts. 1t
seems to me that the responsibility Of
leading mems minds along the ways
of thrift and simple living rests to a
great extent upon the bankers of the
country and in asking YOU to push
the sales of Treasury securities during
the Christmas holidays, I am asking
you only to take advantage of an op-
portunity to meet this responsibility %
In addition, Christmas posters car
rying an appeal to give War Savings
Stamps and Treasury Savings Certifi-
Gates for Christmas presents will be
distributed throughout the Twelfth
Federal Reserve District, and all
Banks have been asked to include a
similar appeal in their advertising.

1t is said the Apaches had five
words for murder, not one for love.
A recent analysis of SOVIET litera-
ture is said to show ten words for
destruction, only one for construc-
tion; six words for communism
only one for patriotism.
Bolshevism, according to lingu-
istic analysis, yields many words
meaning pain, agony, torment,
fear, awe. sadness, hunger, tears,
distress, misery, Imprisonment, ad-
versity. calamity, disaster and con
fscation.
Bolshevistic writings also yield
many words meaning bereavement,
widow, orphan, doom, death, grave
and punishment
We also find the following words
abounding in soviet literature: re-
volt, masses, classes, seize, destroy,
burn, demolish, blow up, and fl
nally, In the work of destruction
we must be merciless. -
Americanism abounds in such
words as love, brotherhood, home,
country, protection, sympathy
pity, fellow feeling, compassion,
charity, friend, country, God, pro-
gress, assistance, hope.

PAY YOUR FINE

POLICE JUDGES
San Francisco Courts VIII Try
Character Building Meas
ures in Minor Cases

Upon the thesis that thrifty man
is a better citizen and that many
of our economic ills and much Of our
present day social unrest are due d.
rectly to thriftlessness," Police and
Superior Judges of San Francisco are
planning to give persons convicted OF
minor infractions of the law an alter
native of investment in Government
securities, such as War Savings
Stamps and Treasury Savings Certifi-
Gates instead of fining them. Judge
T. I. Fitzpatrick, Presiding Judge Of
the Police Court here, said, 81 shall be
glad to assist in the movement in this
direction, keeping in mind, however,
at all times, the provisions of the
charter of the city and county"
The alternative of investment in
Government securities will be offcrs1
whenever it is within the power Of
the judge to fine Or set free the de-
fendant in misdemeanor case. "This
attempt" said another judge, will
give such defendants chance to help
themselves and their Government and
cultivate habit of saving, lack of
which we feel is often at the bottom
of their transgressions.
Family rows which find their way
into court and have many times as
their fundamental cause lack of thrift
or spendthrift habits, are expected to
furnish a rich field for the expert
ment in penalization to be tried by
the San Francisco judges. AS a rule,
the judge has in such cases the right
to fine or release defendants with
severe lecture, and hereafter it is
probable that family rows in San
Francisco will really be beginnings of
many bank accounts.
The judges will attach only one
condition in levying a penalty of in
vestment rather than fining a defend
ant, and that condition Is that the
guilty accepting the alternative must
keep their securities until the date of
maturity. In this way the jurists
hope to lead the thriftless into the
ways Of thrift, sound living and bet
ter citizenship.
