Recommendations that a new and modern union depot be erected in Phoenix were sent yesterday to the state corporation commission by the Business and Professional Womans club of this city through the secre- tary, Miss Bernice Bivin. The recom- nlendation was accompanied by the report of the clubs union depot com mittee and also two resolutions adopted March Is at an open meeting of the club.

 sThe Santa Fe station is unclean and quite inadequate. There is one room for both men and women. This room, at the very most, will seat 32 people. There is no drinking facili- ties and no stove.
 'The station has very narrow caves, and in case of rain or excessive heat it Is necessary to stand against the building which along the lower walls is disfigured with tobacco.

RUMORS INSIST SEC.
 ANDREW bAUMERT, , JR. HAS RESIGNED OFFICE

Andrew Baumert, Jr., secretary to the board of directors of the state in stitutiOnS and rated one of the most
 influential members of the states re- publican organization, continued to re- tain his portfolio at late hour last night at which time he refused to state whether he intended to remain in the official family Of Governor Thomas E. Campbell.
 Reports were current yesterday that the secretary bad suddenly resigned his office and divorced himself from the administration for reasons of stemperamen.al in c m D a a bility''. Baumert denied the reports insisting that he was still On the job. but he evinced no curiosity whatever about the origin or the reports. When asked for an answer to the rumor of his resignation Baumert re- plied
 Will Not Deny lt
 Yes, I heard about the rumors, but no letter of resignation has been sent to the governor by me in so far as know"
 The possibility being suggested that somebody else might have done his re- signing for him or that he might have resigned by word of mouth, it was deemed in order to ask the secretary if there were any understanding" about his resignation. This question
 
 Then, MT. Baumert, will you say that you are nor going to resign" To this question Secretary Baumert an- swered:
 Well, I won't just say that.''
 "The persons who are interested
 won't be in doubt very long" MT. Baument volunteered, s.inasmuch as rumors are either true or false, and the issue of the rumor will be settled one way or the other pretty soon."
 The reported resignation of Baumert brings up the words of Governor Campbell at the meeting of the repub- lican state convention in Tucson Feb ruary 2S at which time the governor took occasion to refer to a certain lack of support from the leaders of
 his own party. Eventually the con vention adopted resolutions supporting Governor Campbelrs administration and nothing was heard publicly about his refernce to lack of support. It was Known that terrific contest was meeting here, in which Secretary Laumert worked on the floor during the entire proceeding and easily proved himself a domina ting factor present.
 At the county meeting. mentioned above the division of opinion con cerned the choice of delegate to tie state convention, one faction desiring delegates who favored George Elias IS a de1eeate to the national convention from the Maricopa district an1 She other faction desiring delegates who favored R.

SANTA F TO RESUME PUBLICATION IF |TS
 OFFICIAL MAGAZINE

The Santa F'e Railroad company will resume publication of it's official paper, the Earth, with J. F. farrell, former editor, in charge according to an an- nouncement made today by F. F. Cruice, assistant general freight and passenger agent The first number will appear Auril 1. Mir. farrell is in Phoenix today, arranging with Harry Welch, secretary of the chamber of commerce, for an article about the Salt River valley.
 "Fhe Earth is one of the Santa Fe's contributions to the general scheme of building up the country. Mr. Cruice said. Tt contains illustrated stories about the development of the territory served by the Santa Fe lines-Phoenix and the Salt River valley, for instance and the distribution is among those who make inquiry regarding this terri tory. Before the war. the Earth was Instrumental in directing the attention of a large number of homeseel1ers and other desirable investors to Arizona, and good many located here as re- suit of the company's cooperation. The Earth will continue to be a booster for Phoenix and the Salt River valley
 Mir farrell said that during federal control of the railroads the Santa Fe kept a careful record of all inquiries coming in about Arizona, and now is prepared to give inquirers the inforna- tion they want.
 Due to crowded conditions in the east he said, farmers must come to the west where land is available. and Arizona offers unusual advantages. Land here can be purchased at reason able prices and there cannot be a fail- ure of crops because diyersification is the rule. First class markets can be found within reach of every producer. The climate is ideal, and living condi- tions are satisfactory. Arizona is due for big agricultural development, and look for a heavy increase in the states r1onulatinn in 1q2n and 1921 :,
