yesterday on the decision of General
Wood to enter the Illinois primaries
said: 'o0'
ut is believed that the legalized
primaries afford the best test as to
whom the people really want as their
candidate. Despite the fact that soma
OF those interested apparently do not
want such a test in Illinois. WOODS
managers have decided that, as Illinois
IS one of the biggest and most repre-
sentative states of the Union, it's peo-
PIE should be given an opportunity to
Iee delegates know whom they favor for
the Presidential nomination.
Popular demand in Illinois for sew
eral e,r weeks has been that Leonard
Wood should enter this primary. Every
party leader worthy of his position
wants to know, not guess, who the
voeers want, and the voters are enti-
tied through the legalized channels
afforded to express their choice"

BERLIN, Feb. 24.-German newspa-

Monday adopted declaration that the
newspapers of the country are con-
fronted with catastrophe owing to the
enormously high prices of news print

The position of many of the news
papers is precarions. Some of them
of historical reputation are being kept
ahoat only by emergency credits. un-.
less supplies of paper are guaranteed
at reasonable prices soon majority Of
the newspapers must suspend.
The publishers attribute the phe-
nomenal paper prices to wild specula-
ton and swindles in timber. In an ap-
peal to the government the publishers
urged that intervention come soon on
behalf of the newspapers if collapse
is to be avoided.

Democrats of State Nav
Favor Dry Referendum
Strong Likelihood That Com.
mittee at Albany Meeting To.
day Will Approve Issue

ALBANY, Feb. 24.-There is strong
likelihood of the Democratic State
Committee, which meets here to-mor-
row and Thursday, declaring in favor
Of a national referendum on prohibi-
ton. This is the opinion of some OF
the leaders of the party, who conferred
here with Charles f. Murphy, leader
of Tammany Hall; Norman f. Mack
of Buffalo, and w. W. Farley, of Bing-
hampton.
Congressman Thomas Cullen, of
Brooklyn, declared that prohibition as
an issue was unavoidable.
"Governor Smith has urged state
referendum" said Mr.. Cullen, land
there is nothing for the Democratic
party to do but go to the polls in the
state and nation next fall on platform
pledging the party to referendum on
the question. And there is no lodging
the fact that the fight next fall in this
state certainly will be on the prohi-
bition question. 1t will have to be
fought all over again"
But unless the Democrats can find
some member of their party Of national
prominence to make the keynote speech
there is fear on the part of those
WHO Wdilt IHe Sldte convention 10 60
on record as favoring a national refer
endum that the proposition may sim
mer down to an Endorsement of Gov
ernor Smiths proposal that the people
of this state be permitted to vote on
the question.
At to-night's conference it virtually
was decided to select Governor Smith
and Oliver Cabana as members of the
Big Four" Mr.. Cabana is paint and
varnish manufacturer. and one of the
largest owners of blooded cattle in the
country. Former Governor Glynn, who
has been mentioned as possibility, has
declared himself out.
If there are three men there is q
chance of William Church Osborn be-
ing named.
Governor Smith will head the "Bie
Four" and it is likely that he will be
called upon to make the big speech.

 STORES AND BANKS

That through the medium of CO., operative stores and banks Phoenix

 the progress of a closed shop meeting

 CTS. Tomas J. Croaff, for the Arizona supreme court and the details of the proposed cooperative stores and banks appeared to be of equal interest with enthusiasts at the meeting.
 Be ready to take over the manage
 ment of industry, organization and management" Croaff told the audience and then advised them that the es tablishment of cooperative stores and banks here would serve to school them in the principles of the responsibilities which they soon would have the oppor-
 tunity to maintain.
 A representative of the Pacific Co., Operative League told the audience that already nine cooperative stores. had been established in Arizona while plans now are perfected soon to open similar stores in both Phoenix and Prescott
 Conditions in England under exten- sive cooperative methods were glow inly described by T. H. Bell who urged the working men of Phoenix to regard them as examples worthy of following. The store to be established here will follow, it was explained. closely upon the lines of those already established throughout the state. It will be con- ducted on a strictly non-profit basis. it was stated, thereby eliminating all chance for profiteering. One of the speakers pointed out that one of the chain stores now being conducted on the same basis in Tucson already has paid two dividends. MT. Croaff urged | that bank be opened here and con- ducted along the same lines.

possible for him to support his wife for a time on money he borrowed from her without her knowledge.
 Quite interesting. the story proved, and after John had made a clean breast of everything and was held to answer to the superior court, he was released without bond when Mrs. Addie Odgers, his wife, decided she would give him a chance to make good.
 John is Mrs. Odgers' second hus- band. The first husband died, leaving life insurance of $1,500. John Odgers' health was not the best, so after the wedding they came from the East to Tucson and then last January to Phoe- nix. At that time, Mrs. Odgers stated, there was left of the insurance money little more than $1.l00 and some Liberty bonds. The money and bonds were placed in a bank to their joint account.
 Urged to get a job John soon after announced triumphantly that he had secured position as salesman for the Roamer Motor Sales compny at a weekly salary of sS1. Eacn Saturday John exhibited $S1, and the household Twas supported in adequate style.
 All went well until the time came when John did not exhibit any sS1 at the weeks end, nor did he contribute anything toward the support of the household. When this continued, al- though he was supposed to be receiv ing a good salary, he explained by saying he had sent S1.500 to Mrs. Odgers' father, but a telegram to tho father brought the information that he had received no money.
 A call at the Roamer Motor Sales company developed the fact that they did not even know her husband. His arrest then followed on a charge of failure to provide.
 But Mrs. Odgers received the sur prise of her life when John, in court yesterday, told her and the justice how each week he had been drawing SS1 from the joint bank account and exhibiting it as his salary witt. which the family had been supported as long as the account lasted.
