Nll. 5. GOLDSNORTHY OUTS SANTA FE FOR
 TIE EQUITABLE LIFE

After 30 years with the Santa Fe Railroad company. during with time he has represented that railroad in Phoe- nix and in Arizona. Wilson $. Colds worthy will on Monday leave that line and become identified with the Phoe- nix office Of the Equitable Life Insdr- ance society.
 Coming to Arizona in 1893 and to Phoenix. MT Goldsworthy has been connected with the Santa Fe continu ousiy. From 1905 until the taking over of the railroads under government con- trol he filled the position of general agent. Since then he has been in charge of the consolidated ticket office in this city. This position he leaves to be- come associated with the Equitable.
 Goldswo-thy and the Santa Fe have become so sgnonimous in this city that it will be difficult for Mir. Goldsw orthy's many friends to become accustomed to his rev connection. As general agent of the Santa Fe he has been ac tive in assisting the advancement of Phoenix to the fine position she now occupies among the cities of the south west. Numerous of the best industries here owe much of the fact of their prence here to MT. Goldswohty's active agency.
 \ member of the chamber of com IneTce and of the Rotary club, Mr ColdsWorthy always has been num- btred among the ready workers so oft en called upon to give valuable ti.ne for the benefit of Phoenix. During his long residence in this city MT. Colds worthy has witnessed her advancement from ;,n insignificant village to a pros porous and busy city, and in all of this he has had hand.
 shortly after coming to Phoanix M-, GoldsWcrthy moved the Santa Fe ticket office from Washington street to the present location at the corner of Cen tral avenue and Adams street. At that tiire much of the property between the Goodins building and the Bake build ing was vacant Much of the present prosperity of West Adams street re- suited from the stabiiizing influence that was brought there at that time by Mr. GcI1sWorthy' act.
 In his new connection with the EQuit- able Life Insurance society Mir. Colds worthy will make his offices at 220 National Bank of Arizona building. It is probable that he will specialize in accident and health insurance. Be- cause of the cordial relations which he has established with the Santa F'e and other railroads in this long rail- road service and the many intimate Friendships he has formed in the past 3O years, there is doubt of the en- tire success that will follow him in his new connection

Government And Business

It is not easy to introduce business methods into governmental affairs. Wherever it has been pro posed the proposal has with objections and un- usually obstruction. The reason is not hard to find Most men who get into office and become directly or indirectly associated with the handiins and dispensing public fulsis want restrictions that will interfere with their payment of political debts.
 There is buried in a committee of. the senate senator McCorrniclz's budget bill A subcommittee n few days ago agreed upon favorable report on the bin but so far have learned no further has yet been taken
 This bill makes the secretary of the treasury in effect a minister finance with full authority un- der the president all items of all depar tnens and gives responsibility for all items passed on to congress for appropriations It would take from treasury, sensblg all side lines such ;rs public service, the coast guard, the bureau of risk insurance and similar bureaus which have connection with money raising and money spending activities.
 It is proposed under the secretary of the treasury budget bureau with commissioners at the head duty will be coordinate the work of providing revenue to conform to the budget requirements; investigate waste and duplication government departments, recom- mend changes to provide under which money shall be spent and generally to see that the budget is adhered
 One weakness O bill that it excepts con- .,ress from the necessity of holding expense But perhaps much expect of congress would self ham pering legislation But a good and if enacted sometime may have a congress willing put itself under restrictions which will prove beneficial in it's operation in departments.
 United States is the only nation in the world ofa any consequence that it's financies in a haphazlrd fashion and it has done always; it has set pace direction that has been followed down whole scale government It is the only government where spending has relation to in- come will be hard convince the pork committees Iog-rolling congressman that budget legislation is desirable but the government has come to point can no longer afford spend reczlessy without regard to income.

He could check his minister saving prayers He could check his ba ggage or check a fight But he could not check-his appetite.

SUGAR LIKELY TO 60
 STILL HIGHER LATER
Price of 25 to 30 Cents Probable When the Canning Season Opens iD
 All Sections.

Chicago, April I0.-Warnine was is sued today that when the canning sea- son opens people will have to pay 25 to 90 cents for sugar
 Where the government could have bought Cuban raw sugar at $6.50 per hundred pounds last fall, thus assuring a supply, had the Equalization Board continued in effect. the price demanded now by the Cuban grinders is $16.55. which means 20 cents pound to the dealers. There has arisen in Cuba a situation similar to that i'll the Brazil lian coffee market, where the govern ment monopoly has the coffee supply throttled and gets it's own price. Fur thermore, the Cuban grinders overes- timated their crop. Grinding is about completed and the supply is far below what was expected.
 Col A. A Sprague, former food ad- ministrator for Illinois, says there are other reasons why prices are bound to go up. One is the tendency of the wholesalers to be stampeded into paying enormously high prices and another is the "hogging' of sugar by those able to buy in large quanti- ties, regardless of the prices.
