JOHN LEWIS GETS
 3O DAYS "REL|EF''

 Judge Thomas had nearly completed a busy day in police court. So many offenders had been crowded into the small room that Lewis had been we'll hidden behind the mass of humanity Slouchinglyshe stepped forward as his name was read.
 "Yessir. jedge. it's me. alright, Lewis replied.
 When were you here last. John?' the court inquired.
 Last Monday, I guess" John re- piled.
 At this point. Police Chief George O. Brisbois made a brief statement to the court.
 Tt was only few weeks ago that we released Lewis one Saturday after noon after serving a 20-day jail sen- tence for drunkenness and disorderly conduct" Brisbois explained. That same night, he was drunk al1ain. You gave him another 20-day jail sen- tence and we released him last Sat. urday. Now here he is again"
 Well, Jedge. just can't let the stuff alone" Lewis remarked.
 That being the case, it'li be 30 day. this time. That will give you a littl, relief anyway" the court concluded.

Financial Review
Straight Thinking
By ERIC KOBBE Of Blyth, Witter & Go.

Straight Thinking
 The easing up of prices will have little serious effect of a permanent ma ture and the country should be able to pass through this crisis of readiust- ment with a small if any increase in business failures. Tn fact according to the report of R. c. Dunn and companv. for August, 1920, there was a slight de- crease in the number of commercial in solvencies, although the volume of Ua bilities showed a marked augumenta- . ton.
 Prices have not and will not reach their lowest levels for some time to come, but beyond position we are en- terlng a buyers market after a most riotous time of spending. Exports have decreased leaving more goods on the market; labor is more plentiful and more efficient; there is more efficiencv m production, all of which tends to a downward trend insprices.
 Under present conditions that tbe country is not in a more unfavora bIe position is due to the functioninr of the federal reserve system and the CO., operation Of the bankers. The federal reserve bank is not really a bank. bu, it is law and what it may and nav not do is clearly defined bv this law Alter the armistice the strain put on American banking resources bv OK. banding business was as great and ths banking credit of the country was in Hated to such a point that disaster might we'll have followed had not de tlation been so well and is stiU bejnr so we'll controlled by the federal re-

TOPRESEVT CASEFOR
 LOWER FREIGHT RATE

Oral argument in the graded rate case in which testimony was taken in Chicago, San Francisco and Salt Lake City will be heard in Washington, D.. C., November 4 and 5 before the in terstate commerce commission, ac- cording to word received by the cor poration commission yesterday. r. A. Jones who took an active part at the hearings will represent Arizona, mak- ing a vigorous argument for the inter mountain states which are attempting to secure graded transcontinental rates to the east. Idaho, Nevada, Montana. Utah. New Mexico and Arizona are Joined in the rates based on distance. claiming a right to lower rates than the Pacific coast rates.
 The decision of the interstate con1- merce commission will be of great in ; terest to Arizonans who appreciate the effect of the decision. MT. Jones point ed out yesterday the great benefit to this state in securing lower rates to the east on cotton shipments. farm products and copper bullion. as well as the reduced freight rates on bringing into the state manufactured articles ana farm implements which are among the articles shipped into Arizona.
 At the conclusion of the hearing Mir. Jones will attend the eighth annual meeting of the National Association of Railway and Utility Commissioners which will also be held in Washing gton This wil be the first meeting of Inc association since the return of the rail roads to private ownership after gov ernment control. and as such has par- ticular interest to officials.

dress issue according to w. A. Mouer. state land commissioner.
 Tt depends on the height of the girl and whether or not the display is arr tistically shapely. Had you asked me about the V-shaped blouse which yaused such ripple last spring, i would have another answer" said the "develish" land commissioner
 F. A. Jones, traffic expert and mem Der of the state corporation commits sion is recognized as a highbrow and yet his was a human reply. Said he with the best interests of the city at heart; Short skirts aid in the direc- ton of traffic. If women would oply wear real short skirts they would be better able to dodge in and out among the cars" MT. Jones believes that the congestion of traffic would be less ened and as additional plea for the bit of a skirt he advocates them as a mat ter of conservation. The correct length he places at an inch and a half below the knee-provided there are no de- fects.
 Judge Thomas of the city court rules that it is no ones business how short a woman wears her skirts. No indeed. It's a woman's own business" says he just like that. So far he says the short skirt has not brought in any business to his court.
 Out of style-out of look" says none other than Chief Justice Cunningham of the supreme court. He says the style is long on looks if short on mate rial.
 Comes Jesse Boyce. state auditor who is not running for anything and therefor does not care what he says and says it. He's for 'em short, with expensive. rolled stockings and every thing.
 T admire fine scenery" he declares Maybe it is because he is his assist ant but NJ. s. Stanley agrees with his chief.
 AS short as her conscience permits says Clay F. Leonard, clerk of the su- preme court.
 Seventeen inches from the ground is declared for by R. E. McGillen, as- sistant secretary of state who thought that the correct length if it looked well With the tax on materials we can not ask the women to buy more than necessary for a simple little skirt" says Charles R. Howe, state tax commis- sioner.
 Bring out the best there is in every one. if it is from the knee down why that's all right, too" G. H. Bolin, state mine inspector says.
 Making up for the fact that he said Tong enought to reach to the knee Dr. R. H. H. Blome thought to make it all right with an Abraham Lincoln quotation, but its the truth that the state director for vocational education favors the short skirt But don't say said anything as wicked as that he 1 begged.
 T. C. Cuvellier, director of public health surveys can't think in inches However little girls in primary classes | should wear their frocks to their knees while high school girls should let theirs go down to the ankles and let theil skirts stay there the rest of theil natural lives.

 No Off Types Considered
 Special notice should be taken by those contemplating entering in Pima classes for best pants and sweep stakes awards of the fact that the awards are to be given for plants which are typically Pima and that off-type plants, regardless of their excellence, are not worthy of awards in this class. This rule will be strictly adhered to, since it is not desirable for more than one variety of American Egyptian cot ton to be grown in the southwest, ana the success of the marketing phase or the industry depends upon production of as large an amount as practlcaOie of cotton as nearly uniform as it is possible to grow.
 The cotton department will furnish its own containers for all displays Of lint and seed cotton. Therefore, en- tries may be sent in in any container which will protect the cotton and keep it clean. A two-pound sample Of lint Is required and a five-pound sample or seed cotton. There are no entry lees and entries should be addressed as soon as possible to H. C. Heard super intendent of the cotton department, BOX 7s5. Phoenix Entry blanks and information may be obtained from H. c. Heard at the county agricultural agents office in the Phoenix chamber of commerce building. or from the state fair offices iC the basement Of the Fleming building.

THE SHORTER THE
 BETTER, THEY SAY
 OF MOMENTS SKIRTS

Naughty and nice state and city of ficials yesterday went on record as to their views on the length of women's skirts.
 While the majority appear to be in sympathy with the upward modern trend, there were a few conservatives to be found, even among Arizona offi- cials. Most of the observing men are in favor of the half and half length. midway between the ankle and the knee, and again here are those who go so far as to say "the knees the limit"
 Age and the contour of the silken ex- hibit have more to do with it than any thing else. Not one of those inter viewed considered for a moment the moral issue. Joe V. Prochaska. state game warden. received his inspiration from his surroundings. He glanced over his collection and then declared that no woman should wear 'em too short. She shouldn't dress like a road runner. But why come to me this isn't the chicken department" he said in an annoyed tone and then mop ping his brow declared that as far as the dear were. concerned they were game.
 Don't make a street cleaning de- pertinent out of skirts" is Chief of Po- AANN 1COA6O aQNlCe 10 all women-although he qualified later by asking that while he was not fussy if the display was not all it should be, why offer the exhibit? Furthermore said the chief if the knee skirt becomes the vogue I look for trouble among my force. I have emphasized the fact that every officer of the law should be able to look everyone in the eye"
 w. s. Norveil state water commis- sioner, evidently had his mind on his work for he muttered something about abbreviated skirts landing one into pretty deep water k
 With all seriousness Colonel James H. McClintock, state historian, declared that the most moral races were the least clad, while Con cronin, state librarian would have women wear their skirts to the top of their boots-the height of the boot not mentioned Ankles mean nothing to Adjutant | General Walter S.

ID OPEN DAY SCHOOL
 IN MARKING, CHINA

Articles of incorporation are being drawn up in Phoenix today that an American woman, may open a day school in Ranking, China.
 For eight years this woman, a Miss Thirza M. Pierce, taught the little Chinese kiddies, and then came the realization that the mission school was limiting her work. In order that she might do more for the youngsters whose education is her life work, she decided to open a school with a more progressive policy. With the decision she was confronted with many ob- stables in the form of red tape which have led to the drawing up of the articles of incorporation of the Pes talozzi school which has a number of well-known educators listed as in- corporators, including the mission teachers brother in law, Dr. R. H. H. Blome.
 Dr. Blome. state director of voca- tional education, said yesterday that Miss Pierce was deeply interested in her work. She proposes opening a number of day schools in Nanking. with number of American teachers
