RETURNS FAST TO , BUY MERCHANDISE

Declaring that the October business had excelled all expectations, making a return to the eastern market abso- lutely necessary, Abe Korrick left yes terday for New York to obtain mer- chandise, on which he will demand for immediate shipment.
 Before leaving the city AIr. Korrick stated that his return 10 New York after only three weeks in Phoenix was unprecedented and was caused by the phenomenal success of the recent an niversary sale held by Korricks.
 Mfr. Korrick said that in view of local conditions he had only hoped to equal last October's business but that a 33 1-3 per cent increase over last year was the stores record for the past month.
 We did not attempt to buy mer- chandise at the beginning Of summer, when the high prices prevailed, realfz- ing that prices would be reduced 10 meet the needs of the people" said the merchant.
 MT. Korrick goes east to secure gen eral line merchandise and will be ac- companied by A. Strause. manager of the mems department.
 Mr Korrick is confident that after election there will be a speedy adjust ment and conditions will be normal throughoutthe county. Labor, he be- ducing more goods A number of the mills that were shut down when labor demanded higher wages have been re- opened on labor accepting from Is to 25 per cent less wages than during the war, he said, the new basis having been put in effect with the drop in prices of every day necessaries.

had been accomplished in reviying reclamation, so vital to the future of Arizona, as a national policy, and dwelt in detail upon the Colorado river pro- ject, which would reclaim 1,200, GOO acres in Arizona and develop 550,000 horsepower of electrical energy.
 And my opponent has so little vision that he dismisses this vast pro- ject with the declaration that his hat isn't big enough with which to dam the Colorado. 1 don't think he really meant the hat; he probably was re- ferring to what is under the hat"
 In discussing the state land issue, Governor Campbell said that the peo- pie were now becoming familiar with this vital issue and that they un- doubtedly would voice their decision at the polls Tuesday as to whether they desire a continuation of the past and present administration of these lands or whether they want to see them administered in behalf of the people instead of privileged few.
 The issue is clear cut" he de- clared. My opponent stands openly for the past and present administra- ton of these lands and will undoubt- edly continue the present land com missioner and his subordinates in charge if he is elected He believes and says he favors the present system of leasing these lands in large tracts to a few wealthy eattlemen, as an eco- homie proposition. He believes the sale of 725,O00 acres of the state lands, including the very cream of the agri- cultural lands, at an average price for the whole of s5.50 an acre, was all these were worth and that the present income of $200.0O0 annually, and a land department expense of more than $101,000 annually, is all right.
 T am opposed to the chasing of all these state lands as grazing lands carrying the minimum sale price of $3 per acre and believe the state lands should be re-classified and reap praised, then sold or leased for what they are really worth, whether that be one cent or S100 an acre. am opposed to the system of consolidating these leases in the hands of a few wealthy cattlemen, and by cancelling and promptly renewing these leases, before the date of their expiration, giving these lands into the hands of the orig inal leasers practically in perpetuity without affording anyone else the slightest opportunity to competitively bid for these lands. will, if re- elected, ask the resignation of the present land commissioner and will re- quest the legislature to do away with this supine, political land board and make the land commissioners office elective, so that he may be directly responsible to the people instead oi the politicians.
 And that is the big issue in this campaign and the big difference be-
 tween my opponents views and my
 own regarding these state. uands." Governor Campbell will close hi: campaign for reelection with a big
 meeting here Monday night.

Events of w eek in Realty
The Cooperative Plan
BY RONALD S. O'NEILL.

Washington has taken kindly to the cooperative
ownership of apartments idea, suggested IN the washing
ton Times last spring and first put into practical opera
ton here by the Allan f. Walker Company through the
medium of unique and improved plan OF Mr. Walkers
devising.
Other real estate firms in increasing numbers each
month have followed the lead of the Walker firm and
nearly dozen of the finest apartment buildings in the
city have been sold under this plan during the past few
months
The cooperative ownership plan is Fundamentally
sound and offers those who in need OF city housing
accommodations excellent opportunity of securing
place to live at price that compares most favoraby
with the price of separate homes.
Most of the apartments being offered on the co.
operative ownership plan being sold at prices that
range 60 per of the production cost Of the
building. This makes the apartments an exceptionally
attractive buy from investment standpoint alone In
varaby the amount of rent that can reasonably be
charged for the apartments will than pay the cost
of purchasing the apartment the cooperative plan.
The pioneers of the cooperative ownership plan In
Washington find only objection to immediate purchase
the part of many prospective buyers This timdity
born of doubt whether the apartments will find ready
resale in the future in the event that the purchaser should
have to dispose of his holdings.
The experience of New York and all other cities
where the plan has long been in successful operation is
that there is always good market for apartments
on this plan for separate homes.
The cooperative ownership plan is but it will
endure To congesed Washington it offers most de-
sirable solution of the housing problem. Washington is
essentially city of apartments and the apartment market
will continue active here for many years.

BIG HOTESLS WILL NOT

Prohibition Blessing in Disguise to
Prominent Hostelries. According
to Syndicate Head.

Prohibition Is proving a blessing

American hotels, according to the

without in any way attempting
to go into the POLITICAL or moral ques-
tions involved in the constitutional
adoption of prohibition" said this
man, "the change has placed the hotel
business on a higher plane than it
occupied before. In the old days the
hotel business, generally speaking,
was under a certain moral cloud. 1t
was recognized that the average
hotel depended on it's bar and upon
it's profits from drinks served to it's
guests in their rooms, and in the
cafes and restaurants for a consider
able part of its earnings. This
brought a certain odium upon the
entire business, which has now been
entirely removed.

Announcement of the auction by
Joseph p. Day. OF 500 lots at Crest
view, adjoining the city line at the
end of Massachusetts avenue. has
created unusual interest among the
real estate men Of Washington be-
cause Of its novel and sensational
lines.
Mr.. Day says that the secret Of sue
cess in connection with the huge salns
conducted by him Is the fact that the
public has confidence in the veracity
and sincerity Of his advertisements.
The first step taken by him before
contracting for any sale, he says Is
to ascertain whether the property has
merit and can be safely bought by the
public. After he has satisfied him
self that the property is desirable. he
obtains the consent of the owner OF
the property to an absolute sale.
And my understanding of an abb
solute SALE" said Mr.. Day, "is that the
property is to be thrown on the mar
ket without reserve and sold to the
highest bidder.
"This method has been pursued by
me in disposing of some of the most
valuable properties in the largest
cities Of the country"

comforts and restful influences Of a
real household. 1t must supply the
home environment Above everything
else there must be a clean and
wholesome moral tone which could
not have been entirely possible be-
fore the establishment of prohibition
in the United States.
I'VE believe that the next few years
will witness quite an era of new hotel
construction because Of the fact that
now. as at no former time, can a
man live in a hotel with his family
and feel that the surrounding in
fluences conform to his highest ideals
in comfort as well as in wholesome
standards of living"
