CHRISTMAS CHEER CHECKED

Tuesday evening two MexIcans
crossed the line in large, fine auto
mobile they had borrowed from a man
on the Arizona side of the line, and
they returned with two cases of booze
which was seized and the men arrest
ed. The car was seized also, under
that provision in the United States
Revenue law which says an animal,
vehicle or vessel engaged in smug-
Cling, if taken, shall be forfeited.
The men related that they had been
engaged by Mr.. Rudolph Bachman,
of Amadoville, to bring over the Ii
quor and deliver it at his home, in
the settlement on the norm side of
the county. Upon that allegation q
warrant was sent after Bachman, and
he was brought into Nogales yester-

OF EXPERT
General Tasker H. Bliss. In
An Interview Gives A
Gloomy View of Situation
Says Food Control And
Distribution Must Be Re-
sorted To


WASHINGTON, December a.
"World's food control and adequate
means for distribution are necessary
to bolster Europe's morale and pre-
vent spread of bolshevism," said Mai.
General Tasker H. Bliss, American
Military expert at the Versailles
peace conference, in an interview pub
ished this evening. European NOR
ale is so tied up with the economic
situation that conditions are very
bad," said General Bliss; "They have
had millions of producers killed or
died from war injuries and health i'm
paired by the rigors of service, thou
sands of others have suffered depre-
citation of productive capacity"
= General Bliss closed his remarks
with an assertion that Europe is
suffering greatly and will continue
to suffer from lack of food supplies
which will be the ruling condition
until production throughout the world
rises to meet demands"

Billy Sunday knows the value of
brass bands and the hip, hip, hooray
method of converting sinners to re-
ligion. Statesmen for ages have en-
ployed similar methods with which
to wrest the elusive ducat from the
purchasers poke, but so far as is
known it remained for the big Marcus
Show, which comes to the Lyric on
January 2, in the colorful eXtravagan-
"a "Oh Baby" to be sought after as
means of advertising the products
of the United States and Canada in
a bid for world trade.
A coterie of financiers who are in
terested in mercantile lines have Of
ferred A. B. Marcus a guarantee of
a big profit to make a tour of the
world with the current revue. While
they figure that possible the expense
of the undertaking will more than
offset the direct receipts nevertheless
the value of the advertising of Am

pensate.
The proposed tour would open in

Humanity has suffered too much.
Many millions of our brothers have

there will go through the world a
great sob from forlorn and aged mo-

stricken women will lay beneath
Christmas trees gifts for little ones
who never have seen their fathers and
never will; lonely and lonesome girls
will rail against fate which took away
their hope for happiness in marriage" ."
