SAYS BRITONS PLOT
TOKILL us. MARINE

Refusal OF private ship owners to
grant demands Of the Seamen's Union
is directly traceable to a British
game" to kill the American mer-
chant marine, Andrew Furuseth,
union president, charges.
The unions principal demand is
for the employment of Americans
first" but it also asks establishment
of an eight-hour day on ship and in
port and an increase in wages from
$I5 to 800 a month. Refusal of these
demands has caused the present
strike, Furuseth said.
The United States Shipping Board,
by it's delays, which Furuseth said
have wasted two months, has become
a party to the condition. he asserted.
The union president declared that
unless Americans are employed now.
unless training is given them by
Americans. the crews of all ships
flying the United States flag will be
made of Spaniards, Italians, and
South Americans.
Such men can't speak English. and
they won't learn it," Furuseth con-
tinued. And no American is going
to work with a man who does not
speak our language. It's a wrong
SySltIl II liitdlAo utdlll " Allt AAilGI-
lean merchant marine. for no nation
has built a merchant fleet and kept it
unless the crews were natives of the
owning the ships.
You'll see that in a decade, all of
these ships, built to win the war. will
be transferred and manned by the
British unless we get American boys
on those ships now. 1 can see moth
ing but deep game by the British.
Most OF the private ships now are
by the British and Ca
nadians. They'll do anything to
further the interests of their home
land.

STATE BEE INSPECTOR
 FEARS HE HAS BEEN STUNG.

PHOENIX, July 29.-That a state bee inspector is very apt to get stung is said to be the sad reflection of Earl l.. MattesOn, appointed apiary inspector by Governor Campbell.
 MaUteson is forced to this, conclU- sion by the recent decision of the superior court of MaricOpa county in settling a dispute as to salary be- tween J. P. Ivey and H. P. Benson.
 Both Ivey and Benson, ,as former bee inspectors, put in claims for sal ary. State Auditor Eoyce Hlrned them beth down on the grounds thai there was only money enough left in the inspection fund to pay one man and that he was totally ignorant as to who had prior right.
 Now comes the court with a deci- sion that Ivey must be paid first, and that Benson will be entitled to his salary just as soon as money is accumulated in the fund from which it can be paid So, naturally, the question arises. where is the money coming from to pay Matteson? lie was under the impression that his salary was insured through fees col lected by himself at the rate of five cents a hive, but under the plan laid down by the court he pictures him. self as busy as the bees themselves if he is compelled to gather in nick els fast enough to pay up the back salaries and his own as well.

NEW SAN CARLOS DAM
 MAY BE 27o FEET HIGH.

SAFFORD, July 29-The state high way. department has received word from the Secretary of the Interior that there is a strong possibility oi the projected San Carlos Dam being much higher than at first planned. The original specifications called for a dam 160 feet in height, but it is now thought it will be 27O feet
 This serves to change the plans of the highway department in regards to bridge it had planned near San Carlos. It was known that if the dam was built 16O feet high it would cover the present bridge. State En- gineer MaddOck spent considerable time locating new bridge site and at last decided on one six miles fur ther up stream, which would keep it out of the water, as proposed by a survey made by military engineers. But the new plan also puts this pro- posed bridge under water.
 It will now be necessary to make a new survey for a bridge The pro- posed dam at 270 feet will back water nearly up to the town of Rice.

TEXAS OILFIELD
 NEEDS 1O ID 25
 YRS. TODEVELOP

FORT WORTH, Tex, July 29.-A period of from 10 to 25 years will be required to develop fully khe North Texas oil fields in the Fort Worth 1 territory and during that time this city will maintain a steady growth surpassing all others in the state in population, was the prediction of w. C. Burns, general credit manager for the oil Well Supply company of Pittsburg, Pa., who addressed the Fort Worth Association of Credit Men at their monthly dinner recently at JOseph's Cafe.
 "The oil business is geing to help Fort Worth in a way that she does not yet fully appreciate, the speaker de- clared. For the past twenty-two years he has been identified with the oil in- dustry in the various fields of the United States. There is nothing to fear concerning the effect of over-pro- ductiOn will have on prices, for there is such a demand for oil and petrol cum products that these matters ad- just themselves within a few months time.
 "The oil business has developed with remarkable rapidity," Burns said. Only a few years ago it was my custom to have at my finger tips the names of all my customers their wells and their exact amount of pro- duction. At the present time that is an impossibility."
 The laws of Texas protect the oil well supply men, according to Burns. who says the supply men have the lrst lien on property in collecting debts. He asserts the game is haz- ardous, but says the method of list ing customers followed by the var lous supply companies eliminates a large amount of that risk. Burns ex- poets to make Fort Worth his head quarters for several months.
 Costs in Business" was the sub Ject or an address by H. c. Burks, Jr.. industrial commissioner of the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce. Burke recently returned from service in the navy as lieutenant. Following a technical discussion on the various phases of costs in business, he told of ms experiences with methods of ex- pendltures in the navy during the war.
 The rapidity of production called Tor Tn the navy during the war made cost run high," the speaker said. Big Jobs employing thousands of men day ana night were rushed through with but one thought-that of speed. How ever, the officers were responsible for all expenditures and the cost of over mead expense was watched closer than Is ordinarily creditede

STATE TREASURER AFTER
 JOB ON NORMAL BOARDS.

PHOENIX, July 29.-State Treas urer Ross is preparing to take steps to make himself an active member of the Tempe Normal School board and the Northern Arizona Normal School board As far as known the state treasurer has never been con- sidered 8 member of such boards, though Ross calls attention to the fact that the law is very clear on this point. It reads, "The state treasurer shall be, by virtue of his office. the treasurer of each of the said (normaD boards"
 It is probable that Ross will file formal notice with each of the boards that he intends to assume jurisdic- tiOn of the funds of these institutions.

DOUGLAS, July 29.-Sometime ago the Douglas chamber of commerce in- augurated an effort to secure addi- tiOnal troops at Douglas and other border points, believing the situation demanded it. Telegrams and letters were sent to the war department at Washington and to the Arizona repre- sentatives in congress.
 According to a letter received by the chamber this morning from the war department, no more troops will be sent here at the present, due to scarcity of troops, as well as the be- lief that the troops now on the bOr- der are sufficient to cope with the situation.

DRILLING S0ON ID BE RESUMED
 IN BOWIE FIELD

With mills and oil machinery houses from 60 to 90 days behind in their orders, Manager Beck of the United States Oil and Refining con- pany is being congratulated over his scoop" in obtaining 1.500 feet of well casing at Los Angeles. By this stroke drilling in the Bowie field can be resumed as soon as the casing is delivered by rail at Bowie and trans ported to the well. Allowing a week for transportation, the second week should find the drill boring into the sand stratum due to come in at $40 feet depth, according to the log fur nished by previous test we'll.
 As the big well is already down 300 feet, the bit can smash through the last barrier of 40 feet in a shift or two and pierce the sands again. What these sands will reveal is eag- erly awaited. Tests on sand in the first well gave gratifying returns.
 Many believe that the coming two weeks will mark an important epoch in the quest for oil in Arizona.

New York Tribune:

New York Tribune:
 If the President from the begin ming had been willing to consult the whole controversy over the covenant might have been avoided. But the president saw fit to forget that the senate is his partner in treaty -mak- ing and that a sensible partner seizes the first feasible opportunity to talk over the important matter with his associate. Before he went to Europe the president should have consulted. He should have consulted while there. He did his cause no good by saying that those who disagreed with him had ''pygmy minds" and had their eyes on the ground.
