Indicted by Grand Jury.

One Samuel Pandolfo, who has
attained doubtful celebrity as
the plaintiff in a million dollar
damage suit against all the banks
in the state of Arizona, has been
indicted by federal grand jury
in Chicago, along with numerous
other co-laborers in his promotion
schemes, on the charge of using
the United States mail to defraud.
Pandolfo is suing the state bank
ers because a letter was read at
their last state convention from
a Texas state officer telling them
to keep their banks clear of Pan
dolfo paper, as he had a bad rep
utation in Texas. This letter was
published in the proceedings of
the meeting, which forms the
basis of the suit.

country, and loyalty to the flag.

pronounced by the new Judge

have the correct idea of dealing
with criminals.

Soldiers Back Pay.

Notwithstanding the assertions
of Secretary of War Baker that
all soldiers who have been dis
charged by the government have
been given their back pay, and
soldiers in the service are regu-
larly receiving their pay checks,
yet the fact remains that nearly
every train bearing soldiers that
pass through Winslow one or
more of the men make state
ments to the Red Cross Canteen
Service women that they are des-
titute of funds and have back
pay coming for couple Of
months or more, and in one case
a soldier had received no pay for
a period of twenty months. Per-
haps changing men from one
camp to another. and placing
them in different units from time
to time may account for this de-
lay, but certainly when the men
are started off on long Journeys
to other camps some provisions
should be made for their susie
nance, instead of having them
depend on Red Cross women to
provide for them.
Only last week one man who
was being invalided to camp at
San Francisco from the east was
found entirely destitute, and
Mrs. Goldman, at the head of the
canteen service, advanced him SIS
from her personal funds that he
might get something to eat on
the balance of his journey, prom
ising to refund the money when
the government sent him his pay
checks. Another soldier, inva-
lid, going east from a California
camp, had the same story of be-
ing destitute with back pay COM
ing to him. He refused the loan
of money, but was prevailed up
on to go to the Harvey House to
eat a meal. When the train de-
parted the Red Cross wired ahead
to the Chapter at Gallup to feed
the man, with instructions for
them to wire ahead to the next
Chapter. Another squad of re-
turned soldiers were started out
from New York with fve-day
army ration, but the storm peri
Cd delayed the trains, and they
had been without food for more
than day when they reached
Winslow, and they had their first
cup of hot coffee here which was
served them by the Canteen wom-
en-. If there was less red tape
in the war department, and few
er clerks and more efficiency, such
conditions as above described
would not occur.

Local Workers Win Praise.

From a recent issue of the Red

reference to the work that is be-

women:
"Winslow. Arizona, is another

many trainloads of enlisted men.
Their report on general canteen
service in the month of Decem-
Der shows a, SAT soldiers, $50 sail
ors, and IL marines provided

greater part of these men were
enroute for other points, thus
calling for special Canteen Es-
cort Service. For a little desert
town Winslow has accomplished
truly remarkable results, and
praise must be accorded Mrs. A.

Oil Boom Collapses.

ed IN the Chino Valley, near Pres
cott, about a year ago, has fiat
tened out, and the companies
that were supposed to make all
their investors rich are now be-
ing investigated by the Corpora
tlon Commission. The books of
the two companies and a subsi-
diary promotion company, which
have been taken into the possess
sion OF the Commission, show
that hundreds of thousands of
dollars had been paid into the
fraudulent concerns, and the only
visible assets are two holes in the
ground, one rig, and possible
title to several small tracts of
land. These companies were
known as the Arizona Oil & Re-
fining Co., the United Chino Oil
& Refining Co., and the broker
age agency of the former compa-
ny known as the General Securi-
ties and Investment Corporation,
high sounding titles that easily
begulled the people to let loose of
their money in a get-rick quick
blue sky scheme.
The promoters of the oil boom
were a lot of imported boomers
from Los Angeles, and it will be
remembered they had geological
experts from all over the coun-
try visit the land, and issue en-
thuslastic reports of the positive
oil formations, and predicting
the Chino Valley would deveIope
into the greatest oil field in the
country. The expert opinions of
these geologists were played up
strong in all the advertising, and
it made most interesting reading
to the sucker who was getting
ready to separate himself from
his money. Some of the geolo-
glsts even went so far as to rec
ommend the stock of these com,
panies as a good investment, for
which service they no doubt made
a comfortable charge to satisfy
their conscience.
The Corporation Commission,
over the vigorous protest of one
of the commissioners, granted to
these companies the privilege of
selling 5000, 900 shares of stock
at one-half cent a share. Rec
ords of transactions show that
the Arizona company was paid
$332, 900 for a, 600, 900 of the shares
by the subsidiary company, the
General Securities, and that it
was sold by them for $4,000
This money was spent for agents
commission, advertising and for
expenses in maintaining elabor-
ate offices to give the institution
the appearance of prosperity, and
paying the directing officers their
monthly stipend for managing
the affairs. The Chino Company
has had a similar career, and is
now in the hands of the receiver,
with nothing to receive but
ESQ foot hole in the ground. The
gullible stockholder in these ven
lures is simply out his money,
but holds gaudily decorated GER
tificate showing he at one time
thought he was to be a dividend
drawer in the worlds greatest
oil field.

pal.
In view of the ending of the

special significance. | would.
therefore, recommend a general
observance of Arbor Day, and

vines and flowers, to the end that

Fatal Feud.

This community was shocked
last Friday morning by word COM
ing from Phoenix that the day
previous Frank Hoctor, a former
resident of Winslow, had been kill
ed near Glendale by Jeff New
man, also a former resident of
Wlnslow. Both men are in the
sheep business, and at the pres
ent time have their tiocks in the
south country. 1t appears bad
blood has been existing between
them for some time over range
rights in northern Arizona, but
none of their friends ever expect.
ed it would terminate so tragicalA
ly. From an account in the Phoe-
nix papers it seems the two men
were in their automobiles travel
ing in opposite directions, and
according to Newman's story, as
the cars approached Hoctor COM
menced shooting and Newman
got out of his car, and shot twice
with his Winchester, hitting Hoe
tor twice, either of which would
have been fatal. No one wit
messed the shooting, and when
Newman found his victim was
dying he put him in his car and
rushed him to Glendale, but Hoe
tor was dead before reaching the
city. At the coroner's inquest
the jury found that deceased
came to his death from the shots
fired by Newman, and he is held
in bond of 500, 900. Mr.. Hoctor
leaves a wife and daughter
about ten years old. Mr.. New
man also has a family, and has
been resident of Arizona since
his boyhood. He is a brother of
