SOME ACTIVITIES OF
 THE STATE LEGISLATURE

Without single dissenting vote the university emergency appropria- tion bill for $45,000 to complete the girls dormitory with a third story, passed the senate and plans were laid for rushing the bill through the house.
 Senator Paris anti-red and black flag bill passed the house by 30 to one. The negative vote was cast by Little, who explained that the meas ure would interfere with railroad sig nals. Mrs. Mckay also explained her vote by stating that she considered the bill the most foolish bit of legis- lation ever presented and then voted aye.
 The house passed the Delbridge bill requiring that any employe must be paid "at once" upon quitting or dis charge. The vote was 20 to 9.
 Opposition to Fair Fund.
 Considerable opposition developed from Cochise and other southern county representatives in regard to Senator Jones' bill calling for an ap- propriation of $10,000 for the North ern Arizona fair.
 The house passed the resolution in- troduced Tn the senate calling for sus- pension of the vagrancy laws as an aid to solution of the unemployment problem.
 New house bills call for the estab- lishment of an Arizona training school for the feeble-minded children with an appropriation of $50,000 and the construction of the Williams Clarkdale road.
 It will be dangerous from a legal standpoint for person to carry around bombs in Arizona or have them on his premises if a bill intro duced in the house becomes a law. Heavy penalties are provided under the measure.
 The senate in committee of the whole reduced the house appropriation of S1,000,000 for the state common school fund to S750,000 and recom- mended it's passage as altered.
 Senator Claypool's measure to place ice plants under the state corporation commission met considerable opposi- tion and finally was put over for re- consideration.

GOVERNMENT BUSY
 PLANNING NEXT CENSUS

'WASHINGTON-With hostilities at an end the government is now laying the basis for one of the greatest of it's peace time tasks-the decennial inventory of the United States, its people, lands, industry and livestock that called the census. Secretary of Commerce Redfield, the other day signed the order that transferred one of the largest of the temporary war buildings put up at Washington, that formerly housed the army's depart ment of aeronautics, to Director of the Census Rogers and his staff.
 Actually, the government began the job some months ago, assembling its plans and forces. By law, the begin ming of the census period of 1920 is July l, 1919, though it will not be until year from April that the enum- orators will be set to work. It is then that every individual in America, or some one acting for the individual, will be asked the series of questions that must be answered.
 There will be go of these questions in the 1920 census, according to the present design of Director Rogers dummy cards, which now are being given the exhaustive study of the sta- tisticians. The more complex ques- tionnaires that go to industrial estab- lishments, schools, farms, and every other permanent institution of the country, are likewise in critical exami- nation in the light of experience the government has gained in conducting 13 inventories of this kind.

MUCH TALK ON NEW
 GRAZING AMENDMENT

PHOENIX-Informati on the pro- posed grazing lease amendment came from two sources in the house and re- suited in a rapid fire of cross-ques- tions with two outsiders occupying the center of the stage. The first per son to come before the committee of the whole was state land commission CT Mouer; the second was J. C. Wool ey, landholder in the Salt river val ley, who presented the case as seen, he said, by the homesteader and small land owner. The committee of the whole recommended that the bill pass.
 The bill under discussion proposes to allow grazing leases for twenty years, renewals being provided for in a special preference clause while it also would repeal that portion of the law as it stands at present allowing only 40 acres of grazing land to one person. These two main features of the measure came in for strong criti- cism on the part of Wooley. Long leases, he said, meant the elimination of the homesteader and small owner, while in his opinion releasing under the special clause was aggravating the trouble.
 Charges Dummy" Holdings.
 Wooley asserted that while the present law was aimed at keeping out dummy grazing lease holders, it had worked exactly the other way, with the result that the large cattle own CTS were securing the state for men in whose names they might add to their already large range holdings.
 When asked by Representative Phil lips if he had any alternative propos- als to make, Wooley said he had drafted none, but that he had come for the sole purpose of pointing out what he considered the unjust fea- lures of the bill as it had been draft ed. When Commissioner Mouer took his place on the speakers platform, he answered long series of questions from Phillips, Lines, Mrs. Mckay and others, the summary of his replies be- ing:
 MOuer Approves Measure.
 He emphatically approved of the bill as presented to the house. When Arizona became a state the federal government had set apart S,057 600 acres for school grants, with total grant for schools and other state in- stitutions of i0,453,720 acres. Practi- cally no state lands were taken up with homesteads, the state law pro viding for sale or lease. The charac- ter of the lands at the disposal of the state made them better adapted to grazing than to any other purpose.
 Against $40 Acre Limit.
 On the subject of the limitation of $40 acres to one grazing lease Com missioner Mouer said that it was un- satisfactory and impossible to operate with such, limit. The best of the grazing lahd, he said, would not take care of more than 20 to 25 head of cattle per section, as the stockmen put it, thirty acres to a cow"
 Referring to federal restrictions in answer to the proposal that the state limit the number of cattle allowed to graze on one section, Mouer sstated that there could be no satisfactory federal control till congress legislated administer the affairs of the public domain. At present the only federal regulations are those promulgated by the forestry officials and the forest reserves contain more than one-third of the federal lands in Arizona.

A Phoenix paper states that sheep men are now busy shearing and in some bands lambing has begun. For the first time in many years no wool buyers have yet appeared. Usually a dozen or more are here from shortly after the holidays until the clip is cut and sold. There is no market but the latest sold around 50 cents.
