Overall Club Is
Gaining Members

The overall club for Nogales, is
reported to be gaining a very sub
stantial following among all classes
of men in the city.
Even some of the merchants are
lining up behind the movement saying
that they will be glad to join any
movement as a protest against the
present high prices of clothes. They
themselves. they claim are as much
the victims of the present high prices
as is the buying public, and reduc
tion in price would be more to their
benefit than any one else.
The only trouble with the move
ment seems to be the fact that there
are probably less than 100 pair of
overalls in the city. The mems furn-
ishings goods stores, when approach
ed by "The Oasis" reporter said they
did not have a single pair of overalls
in ther stores and so did not see how
the movement would gain much head
way under those circumstances.
Others state that they can supply the
demand, v.. ...z =
J. A. Legarra said that he would
advise the movement taking in all
kinds Of cheap trousers and clothing.
and that he could furnish trousers of
real dress value at $2.35 per pair.
Some of the Stores expressed the
opinion that the newspapers ought to
protect the merchants against such a
movement, as it would catch them
with large stocks of high priced
goods on their hands. An interesting
feature of the situation was the fact
that the merchants who wanted the
papers to protect them were the mer-
chants who are known for never ad-
vertising or otherwise patronizing the
papers.
There was also considerable UNDER
current of talk among the ladies of
the city yesterday about joining the
movement also and pledging them
selves to wearing only dresses made
of the cheaper goods.

Wilson Plans Big
Last St! Hour Move
UNITED Press Service)


WASHINGTON, April 19.- A
dramatic eleventh hour appearance of
President Wilson in the political
arena is being planned, according to
persistent report among the Wash
ington politicians. The plans are, It
is said,. to have the president
plunge suddenly into the campaign,
probably the latter part of next
month.
One of his first acts would prob
ably be. to send message to Con-
gress asking that it remain in Wash
ington throughout the Summer and
pass important legislation which he
would urge. Should such a program
be carried out. it is expected that his
message would be followed by a pub
lie appearance by the presence and a
speech by him.
The plan, according to reports,
would be carried out to give force to
a demand to be made BY Wilson that
the Democratic convention nominate
candidate to run on the League of
Nations platform, with planks prais-
ing the ACHIEVEMENTS of the adminstra
tion, and promising to carry out it's
policies.

SONORA MAIL IS RESTORED

Postmaster Joe Mcintyre, received
yesterday morning telegram cam
ceiling former instructions from the
post office department, and ordering
that mail for Sonora be delivered. to
the postal authorities across the line
as formerly.
This action was brought about by
the activity of the Chambers of Com
merce of the border cities, including
Douglas, Nogales, Naco and Can
anea in Sonora. Bill Haley, especial
ly of the Nogales Chamber not only
sent messages himself, but got a
large number of prominent citizens
and firms to send individual wires al
so. President Figueroa, of Nogales,
Sonora, was one of the prominent
men who sent wire, asking that the
order routing Sonora mail to Juarez
be rescinded.
The action of the American govern
ment in refusing the permission to
cross troops to Carranza, and then in
withdrawing the order diverting the
mail, is taken by the leaders of the
Sonora movement to mean that they
are now assured of a square deal from
Washington; and many of them an
nounced last night that this fact
would add greatly to the impetus of
the Sonora movement.
SONORA NOW BONE DRY
Acting under orders from General
P. Elias Gales, supreme military
commander of the state, the local au-
thorities of Nogales, Sonora, as we'll
it is understood, as those of all the
other cities in the state, have closed
all places selling liquor, or in the case
of restaurants have ordered them to

CARRANzA'S REQUEST REFUSED
Omitted Press Service)


WASHINGTON, April 49, Nc
permit will be given to the Mexican
government for the transportation of
federal troops across United States
territory for the purpose of attack
ing Sonora, it became known today.
A vigorous protest has been re-
ceived from Governor Campbell by
the State Department, against any
movement of Mexican troops across
that state.
Governor Campbell has answered
both the local Chamber of Commerce
and the Y. B. M. A. informing them
of his protest to the state depart
ment, and enclosing copy of the tele-
gram sent by him, which follows:
Phoenix, Arizona
April II, 1920
Secretary of State,
ag. Washington, d. C..
With trade and social relations be-
tween states of Arizona and Sonora
Mexico firmly established during past
year and American interests of great
magnitude running into millions of
dollars having been afforded ample
protection, any act tending to dis
turbe this condition would in my
judgment not only result in vast
material loss but would In all prob
ability be attended with other and
far more serious consequences. Per-
mission by the United States govern
ment for the movement of federal
Mexican troops through American
territory would doubtless bring about
a pitched battle on Aqua Prieta,
Douglas and Nogales boundries as
Sonora troops are now mobilizing at
those points prepared to offer armed
resistance. Greater danger now to
be apprehended is repetition border
raids such as occurred at Columbus,
which outrage was a sequence to
similar passage of troops. Border
cities have appealed to me represent
ing their safety will be endangered
and asking that situation be placed
before you. Feel their position is
we'll taken and therefore respect
fully but insistently protest against
granting of troop movement privi-
ledge to Carranpa government and
the consequent violation of the rights
of the sovereign state of Arizona to
the end that lives and property of
our own people and those friendly to
US may not be jeopardized.
THOS. E. CAMPBELL,
Governor of Arizona.

Freight is moving again


CHICAGO, April, 19.-The third
week of the outlaw" switchmens
strike here opened with the strikers
rapidly losing control of the situa-
tion, and the railroads claiming "a
sixty percent normal situation"
Union officials and railroad mana
gers declare that the strike has prac-
ideally lost its effectiveness. New
York reports quote the railroads as
cclaiming that the strike there is over
so far as they are concerned.
Nearly normal traffic conditions
prevailed today throughout Califor-
mia, with the companies lifting the
embargo on livestock and perishable
freight.
So far as the local situation is con-
cerned, the real pressing need of the
city, gasoline, while not assured for
two or three days more, is likely to
he relieved before actual exhaustion
lis reached, according to the Standard
oil Company yesterday.
Two trsiploads of merchandise had
reached the city up to last night, and
another will probably come in some
time tonight, thus greatly relieving
the shortage here in most lines. Mr..
Morrison, however, could not be sure
that gasoline cars were on the train
coming in last night, and so could
not make a definite promise as to
when he could make deliveries in un-
limited quantities.

FIRE DAMAGES THE RENSHAW
HOME

Fire broke out in the home of II.
R. Renshaw on West street about six
o'clock last night. Mrs. Renshaw in
her excitement did not turn in fire
alarm, but simply called Mr.. Rem
shaw and her brother Dolph Noon
These two men, both captains in the
fire department, took the engine to
the scene and put out the blaze by
themselves by the use of chemicals.
The fire originated from Goals fall
ing out of the fireplace on the Sec
ond story, and did about $4,000 dam
age to the floors and carpets.

The states of Michiocan and

instituted by Sonora in declaring an
end to relations between the state
government and the federal govern
ment while under the control of

says that the general is safe in a

whereabouts will be made known in

be- kept secret. General Serrano, be-
fore leaving for Hermosillo, gave the
following statement to the press:
while at the capital we were daily
receiving delegations from several
states of the republic and from mill
tary commanders throughout the
country for instructions as to the way
OF supporting and aiding the justified
determination of the people of So
nora. Those states which in the en-
tirety are openly favoring the Sonora
attitude are: Michoacan, Guerrero.
Colima, Jalisco, Zacatecas, Hidalgo,
and Tabasco and a great majority Of
the people of the states Tamaulipas,
Puebla and Veracruz. The people of
all the states mentioned are thorough
ly convinced of the criminal intents
of Venustiano Carranza towards the
state of Sonora and are unanimously
ready to back its attitude. 1 per-
sonally believe that the Carranza
troops sent to invade Sonora will
turn to the side of this state and
Carranza will not be able to dispose
of other troops unless he abandones
the rest of the republic in an effort
to take into effect his stubborn pro-
ject of invasion. I think that within
a very few days we will read in the
press ample news regarding develop
ments in central Mexico and
throughout the country"

UNITED Press Service

WASHINGTON, April 49, The
Jersey City OUTLAW" railroad strik-
ers were denied hearing by the
Railroad Labor Board, here today.
This action was taken under a ruling
by the board, which requires that
workers with grievance first must
try to settle their differences in a
conference with their employers.
The ruling means emphatically that
the board will refuse to hear all
grievances where this provision has
not been complied with. Board mem
bers said that the Ech-C -Cummins law
under which the board had been or
ganized provides for this ruling.
The rule would tend to prevent
workmen from bringing their griev-
;ances before the board, unless they
belong to the establishmed railroad
nnions and botherhoods, and is prob
ably taken because the railway unions
so far have absolutely refused to
deal with the outlaw strikers.
Under this system the established
railroad brotherhoods are given
practically closed shop on all the
railroad systems on the United States
AS in all disputes in which the work.
ers are refused a conference by the
railway executives, they cannot bring
their grievances before the railroad
labor board because of the rules.
