Denver, Colo, July 19.-The long
est automobile highway in the

land which rivals in grandeur the
scenic splendors of Europe, is about
to become a reality through the
efforts of the United States park

association and the National PARK
ito-Park Highway association.
\ This 4.500-mile highway, perma-
nent Improvement of which is to be
sought through further congress

err to reach the national parks
easier and afford the tourist the
advantage of continuous thor

OLD HOTELS IN
NE TROPOL| IS ARE
CLOSING DOORS


New York. July l9.-The bid
ding power of office seekers and
not prohibition has caused many
hotels IN the general vicinity OF
forty second street to close recent
~, according to opinions of real es-
tate men expressed today.
Within a relatively short time of
one another such old and famous
hostelries as the Holland house,
Sherry's and the Fifth Avenue no.
tel have closed their doors and
more recent y the Knickerbocker-
relatively new and imposing
structure andoned business
Prohibition has done Sc. this"
cried many VETS" but now one
we'll known hotel woman advanced
the theory that the steady march
of business toward the newer up
town sections was paramount
consideration of the men who de-
cided TO close their obstetrics.
"A hotel doesn't have to run be-
hind to close" she declared, ''if
the owner of the property considers
1t better business policy to erect an
office building on the ground, he
isn't likely to let sentiment sway
him. Prohibition No. Let's say
husiness!"
Real estate men admitted, how
ever, there was no general formu-
la to account for the disappear
ance of the Old hotels. some Of
them the possesors of information
al regulations,
Some people who are closely in
touch with the hotel business
ascribe the closing Of some of the
older houses to the fact that the
principles of hotel construction
have undergone radical changes IN
the last decade. Hotels, they say,
are being built with several times
as many rooms as formerly. effect
ing concentration about one
controlling headquarters and re-
ducing the overhead expense" in
cident to upkeep of individual
rooms and apartments.
Something more than a senti-
mental loss Is entailed in the pass
ing of the old hotels, another hotel
manager points out.
With the closing of the Hol-
land house, Sherry's, the knick-
erbocker and the Manhattan, he
said. "there has been a decrease
of about 1900 rooms available in
the center of the city. Recent
structures have supplied about A.
200 rooms, leaving a net gain of
about 1000 rooms in five years.
This gain Is not adequate to ac-
commodate the increased demand.
| doubt if even the new hotels now
planned will be sufficient to sup
ply the demands of the greater
number of applicants"
That this fact is appreciated by
hotel interests is proved by the ex-
tensive preparations being made to
fill the need. Plans are under way
for the construction of several new
hotels in the uptown district.
One large hotel is to add 1000
rooms and another will be recon-
structed so as to contain at least
5000 rooms. In addition, besides
construction of smaller houses, 1t
is said that a California syndicate
is casting about for sites for several
mamoth hotels in the city.

LUMBER PRICES
IN NEW MEXICO
ARE NOT FIXED
Dealers Resent the Charge
That There Is an Organ

Fixed Scale in State


Especial rorr~spondeDr~ 10 The i"rrn"h
East Las Vegas. n. NJ, July 10
New Mexico members of the
~Mountain States Lumber Dealers
association, in session here Satur-
/, day night. criticized the utterance
of prominent New Mexican In
the course of an address here re-
Gently, in which he said that prices
for lumber in New Mexico are fixed
by g board in Denver. To show
that there is nothing in the allega-
ton, f b. Humphreys of Ration,
the president of the New Mexico
section, called upon members
present for their prices on com
mon building lumber. Forty three
dollars was reported from one
place, $1,000 from another and
$1,000 from third. These prices
are upon the thousand feet.
That the lowest point has been
reached in the recent drop in lum-
Der caused by banks Withholding
money for building purposes, was
stated. 1t was said also that there
and that the drop was purely arti-
fetal.
G. A. Goddard, or Los Vegas,
stated that lumbermen are making
a mistake by not advertising more
extensively, and urged greater use
of newspaper space. Charles Proeb-
,stel of Santa Fee, said the lumber
nen should endeavor to have their
business placed on higher bust
i. ness plane. With better recogni-
ton from the banks. he declared
the lumhermen could give prospec-
tive builders better terms, and
thus stimulate building as well as
increase their own business.

sary, by promoting building and
loan associations.
An evil that threatens many
lumbermen with financial dlfficul-
ties and costs them unnecessarily
in interest upon capital invested
and borrowed money. is the habit
of contractors of delaying their
payments for material. A monthly
settlement should be arranged for
before materials are furnished, 1t
was decided
Mr.. Faw extended an invitation
to the association to meet in Al
buuuerque during the harvest festi-
val, which will be held in October.
The invitation likely will be ac-
cepted.
Present at the meeting were F..

Quick Work
Saves Ford Coupe

At about ten o'clock Saturday
morning, considerable excitement
was aroused on lower Eastern Ave,
when the Ford coupe of Fred Flint
OF St. Johnsbury left the curb in
front of the Post Office, started down
the street and lurched from one side
OF the street to the other without
any driver at the wheel or occupant
in the car. AS the Ford passed the
F. A. Scott Co., it struck the curbing
and headed across toward Nolin
Bros, then it swung around and was
headed straight for the silent police
man at the corner of Railroad Street
and Eastern Avenue, when Joe Four
niel, who recently became a member
of the Fire Department at Station /,
turned the corner. Whenih he saw the
machine travelling at rate of Is to
20 miles an hour, with people stand
ing around and yelling Runaway
Car" but no one attempting to stop

it, he ran and caught the car just in
time to avoid hitting the post. AS
he reached the car, it took a quick
swerve toward him, and forced him
to land on the running board on his
knees while climbing to the door of
the car He opened the door and
twisted the steering rear around, and
then got in and drove it to a place
OF safety.
This example of quick thinking and
quick action caused considerable adj
miration from onlookers, and several
people congratulated him on the spot
for his courage. Undoubtedly the car
would have been badly damaged had
it struck the heavy post, but instead
it escaped without a scratch.

LENNON SURE TO WIN
IN FOURTH DISTRICT
Harris for Probate Judge Has
Heavier Lead Today Than
Yesterday

With returns in from siXty-tw(
precincts representing a total county
vote OF $500 no change has beer
made in the lead of the candidates
from yesterday except in the amour,
of majority. In some instances the
majorities have been increased while
in other cases it has been cut-and in
two offices it has almost disappear
ed.
In the vote for Justice OF the Su-
prcme Court DiDell's majority has
been reduced to 21 and this is expect
ed to be still further cut before COM
plete returns are registered.
In the race between William Len
non and $Sandberg for county COM
missioner in the fourth district Len
mons majority has been cut to SO.
All returns are in with the except of
Birch Island precinct which has not
more than twenty-five voters and
which therefore cannot overcome
lemons lead though it is expected
to reduce it.
The close race between Harris and
Skinvik for Judge OF Probate changed
considerably this morning and Har-
ris whened his margin from $50 to
$50 thereby insuring his election.
Rako's lead was reduced today to
Ills from 1.4O0 of yesterday but his
election is assured.
