TUCSON GLoRIEs IN PHOENIx's SHAME

The pride of Phoenix has been hurt. Also, the veracity of some Phoenix boosters has been called in question. And now Phoenix and her boosters are awful awful mad
 It all comes through the fact that the last census, the figures for which have just been an- ies the boosters have been telling by about 16,000 people. The boosters said Phoenix had between forty-fve and fifty thousand population The census bureau says it has only 29,053.
 The Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, however, has decided "to accept the official count at the same time censuring the census bureau for it's increasing "unreliablity.' All of which pro- vokes the Tucson Citizen to unholy glee and the following comment: Consider the situation. Here is Phoenix, capital of Arizona, hub of the universe center of the good roads movement (that is the movement of good roads away from Phoenix and the mov- ing of road funds into Phoenix), fouted and dis paraged by mere little fact like official govern ment figures.
 'It is an occasion for fell and dire deeds of re- prisal. The whole world has been interested in how many people get their mail in the capital of Maricopa county. The eyes of Bangkok, of Wash ington and of Tahiti are fastened on this Salt River Valley Babylon.
 Gould temerity go farther, insolence be more presumptious error be more idiOtic, than to say that this rising metropolis of 5OOO0 had but 29O53 souls?
 Phoenix was not to lie supine under this wretched ignominy. Not she. Not single blade of her Johnson grass nor single family of her mosquitoes, most of whom she had figured would as matter of right and justice be included in her population.
 But the census bureau was too small fry for her vengeance. It must be all pervasive, must crush and wither and blast all within the range of governmental responsibility. "The first explosion, therefore, announced that the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, mighti- est of all organs of public sentiment, had damn ed the census counts as becoming more and more unrsliable,' thus blowing away into space the whole fabric so laborously built up for 130 years by the government.
 But with the bureau, under this blight and pail, must go the thing responsible for the exist ence' of the bureau When the chamber starts out to demolish things it not merely demolishes the effect, it uproots and obliterates the cause.
 ''The c. of c. let drive its final blast with the that in the future the census of the government is to be dispensed with alto gether.
 '"rhat was reaching the cause with venge- ance. 1t happens that the taking of the census is duty of the government written into the con- stitution of the United States. The constitution is the cause, the decennial census the effect.
 "The census is to go and the constitution back of it is to go Phoenix has demonstrated again that no bumblebee, however swollen, can be tenn pered with with impunity.
 But natheless, that 29,053 will stand as the badge of Phoenix teeming millions for the next ten years.

The decision of Senator Harding to retain his seat in the senate until the fourth of March, next when, in all likelihood, he will be inaugurated as president, is wise and should further endear him to people universally afraid of anything that might give the democrats more power. For the senate now stands 49 republicans and 47 demo- crats Governor Cox, of Ohio is democrat, and if Harding were to resign as senator, Cox would appoint a democrat, in which case the senate would be tied, leaving Vice-President Marshall to cast the deciding vote So Harding is even now on the job of saving the country.

STOCKS AND BONDS
sY REVIEW LEAsEp WIR

NEW YORK, April 21.-Quoted val ues clumbled in today's feverishly ac- tive stock market, list closing in abso- lute demorai1zation, many leaders showing extreme losses of 5 to almost 45 points.
 Apart from the increasing scarcity of time funds, there were no develop ments in the money market to explain the decline. which far exceeded in volume and scope any similar move ment since the early weeks of the year.
 Shares which recently derived their chief support from professional sources, sustained greatest deprecia- tion. There were rumors that the banks were again curtailing loans based on speculative collateral. No confirmation of these reports was ob- tainable, but it was evident that fur ther contraction of credits was in pro gress.
 A factor of more than sentimental importance in the days setback was the further severe reaction of Liberty bonds to lowest prices yet recorded on very heavy offerings. Some of these prime war fiotations fell to lev els where they represented an inter- est return of almost per cent. Selling of Liberty bonds proceeded from va rious sources. but was popularly at tributed to large corporate interests, which probably found it more expe- Idient to liquidate their holdings than engage in new and costly financing.
 Conspicuously weak stocks included General Motors at an extreme loss of 42h points to 275, Baldwin Locomo- tive, which was extremely cratic to- ward the end at a decline of 14A points and various other motor, equip ment, steel and oil issues which fin ished at a net loss of to 10 points Sales 100000 shares, over one-third of the total business occurring in tae fi- nal hour, the ticker being some 20 minutes behind in the days business
 Bonds, including standard rails and industrials, followed the course of gov ernment issues, losing 1 to per cent. Total sales par value, $20,250,000.

 If one has a shoestring potato cut ter, the effort of making these potato strings is not great. However, if one attempts to cut them by hand, infin- ite patience and time are required The result is worth the effort in any case. After the cutting, the frying is small matter Deep fat frying is the simplest of methods and quite economical as well.
