1920, not be cause of natural advantages,
but because of municipal wisdom.
Many communities are today training
the people who make them UP so To deport
themselves AS to become community
assets. Glasses are held which point the
way to individual civic duty and oppor-
tunity. Young business people are adj
dressed by representatives OF the chamber
of commerce on the advantages OF good
manners, of efficiency, Of straight think
ing. Young men are impressed with the
fact that working as part of an organiza-
ton is almost the only road to manage
ment of similar organization. They are
urged to bring themselves to think inde-
pendently of their problems. When a,
youngster can tell why stock does or does
not sell, he has become an independent
thinker When he has found out why his
boss has succeeded, he is himself on the
road to success. The answer to the qucs-
ton, ''why?" is held up to him as the open
sesame To advancement.
The advantage of public forum where
people of all views may gather and dis
cuss local problems is urged The false
theory will fall In such n forum when con-
fronted by the truth In many towns,
notably Middletown, Ohio, these JOINT dis
cussions have become notable part of
the community life.
The present drift of the chamber of
commerce is away from the idea that only
the business people are interested IN It. In
Ellis, Kansas, for instance, the BODY which
studies the municipal problems is known
as the Community Club 1t had its in
ception among men working IN railway
shops. In Sandusky, Ohio, certain in
dustries have asked their employees to
elect members of the chamber of commerce.
The industries pay their dues. In Water
loo, Iowa, the local labor unions elect
members to the chamber of commerce
and the unions pay their dues.
The tendency is toward more effective
ly functioning community organizations.
Any such organization can now draw
upon the experience and thought of others
everywhere that have proven their claim
TO consideration by their actual success,

"KlO" BROWN is TAKEN
UP ON THE CHARGE OF
VIOLATING MANN ACT

Kid Brown, we'll known pugil-
list, who was scheduled to box
Jack Mitchell here last month, has
been placed under arrest by the
federal authorities for alleged vio-
lation of the Mann act, according
to information given out by A. r.
Gere, special agent of the depart
ment of justice, who returned from
Holbrook yesterday.
The department was tipped off
on the matter when it received an
anonymous letter from Gallup,
which alleged Brown was a draft
evader and was living with a me-
gress at the time he signed his
QUESTIONABLE. 1t was also claimed
Brown brought the negress from
Texas.
The matter was investigated and
1t was found that a rejected rival
of Brown, by the name of Jude
Woodson, was responsible for tho
letter. Brown filed complaint
against Woodson, charging him
with libel. Woodson was arrest
ed, but the charges against Brown
were confirmed and Woodson was
released.
Brown was arrested in FL Pas0
and will be tried in Texas fo.
evasion of the draft, after which
he will be brought 10 Santa lie on
the Mann act charge.

Capt w. C. Reid returned from

the interests of the Aztec Land
and Cattle company Captain Reid
has been elected president of the
company, succeeding Z. j. Engle,

interests of the Santa Fe railroad
company, of which he is vice
president. The large interests of
the company and recent oil de-
velopments in that section have
made ii apparent that some one
nearer the interests is necessary
