HEAVY RAIN PUTS FORDS
STREETS IN BAD SHAPE

By Special Correspondent.
FORDS, Dec. 23:-The rainstorm
last night caused the caving in of
many places in the completed sew
er systems in this place. Where
the trenches have been filled In the
dirt has settled and this has allow
ed the sides to break loose. In some
places these holes take in nearly
half the street and make the streets
useless to traffic.
Hamilton, Maxwell and Ling
streets are in such a condition that
they are dangerous to traffic and
neither of the first two streets car
be used at present. Several trucks
have had much difficulty in getting
out of the mud after having tried
to deliver material and food pro-
ducts to the residents in this Sec
ton.
Persons living in the Fairfield
Terrace section have been forced to
make paths of ashes in order to get
to the nearest street in good condi-
ton. The beginning of Hornsby
street near the Hansen & Hansen
garage becomes covered with sever
al inches of water every time it
rains, making it difficult for any one
to use this street until several hours
the rain has stopped and the
low place has drained.

 In Coming Call

PHOENIX, Jan. 31.-Copies of the Susan B.

Campbell today following their submittal to him by Attorney General Wiley E. Jones.
 The special session date is expect. ed to be announced Monday, accord ing to capitol reports, along with the program which the governor con- templates for the session, all indica tions now pointing to a call limited to the consideration of the Anthony amendment.
 Governor Campbell stated recently that he proposed to wait until next week before setting the session date and announcing the program and 1t is known that he is anxious to set the date for the earliest time com patible with the convenience of all concerned. He stated he intended to allow short period between the date of the call and the date of conven- ing to give time for all preliminary considerations. The date of Febru- ary g and 16 were considered prob able dates for the session, both dates representing Mondays.

 DOUGLAS, Jan. 31-Addressing a huge crowd composed largely of min CTS and smeltermen and their fami- lies. Gen. John J. Pershing today took occasion to think these workers for the part they had taken in helping the allies win the war.
 "I know of no section of the coun- try which has finer record for patri- otic service than was shown by the loyal citizens of Cochise county" said the general. ''They undertook to supply us with copper that We very much needed to carry on the war. The industry which supports the peo- pie of this town and of Bisbee was continued uninterruptedly and that was a material help in making pos sible to continue to manufacture for ourselves and our allies the ammuni- tion which ultimately won the war"
 In speaking of the American Le- zion, Gen. Pershing urged every one eligible to join the organization to do so. "The creed adopted by the organization stands for God and coun- try It undertakes to maintain the principles upon which the govern ment is founded; declares itself against autocracy of the classes or the masses and is for true American ism. It undertakes to perpetuate the ties which were formed during the var, and to transmit to posterity the high ideals you fought for I trust that the organization will include at an early date the names of every man

and every woman who is eligible to join it.
 "It is appalling to think that in this nation there are people who under stand so dimly what the government stands for that they wish to tear down and destroy it. They are rais- ing their voices in many parts of the land. I believe that the men who served during the war, those who now wear the uniform and all other good citizens should organize to com bat this propaganda. It can be done by organization and education. would insist that all persons who live under the protection of the American flag be made to learn the English language and to understand some thing, at least of our laws and GUS toms; either that or they must be made to leave America and return to the lands from which they came T. is up to the former service men who have served their country, who have met the peoples of foreign coun' tries, who have met their soldiers and assimilated ideas which have
 broadened them mentally, to lead this movement. We must educate i Ine men ana WO1neR, no less IHdu tue i boys and girls who come through our ports from foreign countries so that
 all may become good citizens This ! is the great work the American Le gion is to undertake.'
 Gen. Pershing was met at Tucson l by local committee which escorted
 him to Douglas where he was en
 thusiastically received. At CamI
 Harry J. Jones he inspected the ! troops and held a short conference l with Col. Alonzo Gray, commander ot i the Arizona military district, anc
 other officers stationed here. Re turning to Douglas he addressed ex service men at private session ther ! spoke to the crowd outside the ElkE club. In both speeches he dwelt
 upon the same topics.
 He was entertained tonight at the
 home of Col. H. H. Stout afterwart attending a reception and dance al the Douglas country club. Gen. Per shing left late tonight with his staff for Fl Paso, Texas.

something that we very much needed to carry on the war, namely, copper. This industry, which is supported by the people of this community, was continued without interruption de- spite the efforts of a class of men whose patriotism might be question ed. This made it possible for us and for our allies to continue the manu- facture of ammunition, which was necessary for the success of the war. It was this support that gave to the men who went from here their i'm pulse and rortitude and encouraged them in displaying their unconquer- able spirit throughout the war. It gives me great pleasure to congra- tulate you upon the patriotic spirit you displayed then and throughout the war"
 Teach the Alien
 General Pershing asserted that we were compelled to enter the war with out being fully prepared but that with the help of the American Legion and other patriotic organizations future wars would not find the country in the same position. As a means to stamp out the. small body o4 men who sought to undermine the government he advocated teaching every foreign ed who entered our ports the English language, that he might understand the great spirit of freedom and demo- cracy upon which our government is founded He praised the Spanish American and civil war veterans, whom he described as mo less patri- otic or to be honored less, than the boys who fought in France or were held in readiness to be sent across the seas.
 General Pershing was the guest of Col Stout for dinner and this even ing attended a dance at the country club, given in his honor by the mem bers of the reception committee. Later he passed a few minutes at a dance, also given in honor of his visit by the local post of the American Legion. He left in his private car about midnight.

TOBACCO GROWERS
MAY POOL CROPS
Meeting At Lexington Develops
Strong Sentiment For An
other Organization

Lexington, KY, August 5-Farmers
from 26 of the 40 counties in the
white hurley tobacco producing belt
met here Wednesday to decide wheth-
er the crop for 1921 will be cut out
and foodstuffs produced o.: whether
the usual crop, which has been pro-
ducing about 2OO,O0O,O00 pounds, will
be set next year.
1t was stated in the proposed de-
claration of the organization that a
body, called the Burley Growers AS
sociation, be formed without intent
of profit and that necessary action be
taken to protect the grower. Speakers
who included Congressman J. c. Can
tril and j. w. Newman, former Ken
lucky commissioner of agriculture,
said the crop should not be cut out
now, that it would be best to wait
and see how we'll the farmers would
stick together.
Another meeting vii likely be held
here August IS, when permanent
organization is expected to be form
ed. Speakers said in some counties
it costs 25 cents to produce a pound
of tobacco and that this price was not
received by many growers. 1t was de-
clared that tobacco could better be
used as fertilizer than sold at this
figure. Pooling of the 1920 crop was
also advocated.
Former Commissioner Newman pre-
sided after C. M. Dean, of Carrollton,
had called the meeting to order, and
both Mr.. Newman and Mrs. Cantrill
opposed cut out, Mr.. Cantrill on the
ground that the production this year
might only be equal to the needs of
The manufacturers, and MI. Newman
on the ground that the better way was
for the growers to organize now
Sentiment was expressed by some
of the speakers for an organization
of the farmers along all lines of ag-
ricultural endeavor and one speaker,
wkO advocated the holding of pro-
ducts until the price asked by the
producer is paid, said: LET them go
naked as jay birds ontii they pay it..
