is certain to follow in others, for
instance Philadelphia Sugar renners
Yesterday announced a reduction or
cents a pound in the wholesale
price of sugar, making the price IL
cents a pound, subject to a cash OF
2 per cent. This should make the
retail price about 16 or 16 Ia
cents. If you are charged more,
write to w. H. Killian, Federal Food
sey Building, Baltimore, Nd.
Fresh beef has dropped 5 cents
a pound, and a reflection OF this
drop is already seen in the retail
prices. Indications point to still
lower price as European Countries,
which have been used by the pack
rrs to keep up the prices, have stop
ped buying.
Profits on dry goods, clothing,
Shoes, etc, have been fixed by the
Federal Administrators and those
who attempt to make more than the
so per cent profit allowed dry goods

more damage in one winter than all earthquakes in the history of Los An geles.
 'sPeople, according to emergency hospital records of all large cities, die in larger quantities daily than during a Los Angeles earthquake.
 "A Los Angeles earthquake is state of mind.
 '"rhe unreasoning fear engendered by Los Angeles seismological phenom- ena was demonstrated in the earth quakes of the summer of 1920. when as a matter of fact a woman sprained her ankle, which event the press other wise would have passed unnoticed."
 That the earthquakes this summer and since the beginning of the pueblo of Los Angeles about 150 years ago were a state of mind is made conclu- sive in view of the argument that Los Angeles is ball bearing. Here is the proof "No damaging shock has ever occurred in Los Angeles. This is believed to be due to the quake-p proof formation of the earth's crust under the city: the gravel formation mak- ing the city practically ball bearing"

MEN NENDORSED|N
 TUCSON ARE NOT LAbOR'S CHOICE?
The 28 At The Meeting Sat- urday Do Not Control Vote of Labor in State Is Declared-Jones Pleaded Hard

That the endorsement of candidates by the Labor convention which met in Tucson ons Saturday did not express the sentiment of the Labor party of the state is the opinion of the poli- ticians of this city who do not believe the 2S men who attended the conven- ton will control the partys vote.
 The interest centered over the en- dorsement of the attorney general and even with the radicals in control of the meeting. it required three hours debate behind closed doors before the vote was cast for Wiley F. Jones. Jones. it is said. made a big fight for the endorsement. fearing that it might go to Louis B. Whitney who recently resigned as his assistant to make the race against him after the attorney general made scathing remarks about town that he was not getting any help from any of his four assistants.
 However. he can no longer make this charge against F. J. Mcbride who played a big part in the Tucson pro- ceedings. MT. Mcbride, it is under stood. buttonholed the committee in- dividually and collectively, telling them if Jones did not secure the endorse ment he would lose his position in the attorney generals office. This was too much for the committee. which un- til this time was evenly divided. and the majority deciSed to make it Jones,

although it could not be accomplished by a unanimous vote.
 These Were Endorsed
 Besides the endorsement of Wiley E. Jcnes, A A. Worsley was endorsed for United States senator; Mulford Winsor for governor; Charles DeSales Wheeler for secretary of state; Tom Foster for mine inspector. and Judge A C. AIcAlister of Graham county for the supreme bench. Franh Brown was the chief lobbyist but was unable to put over Ed Massey, the conservative candidate for mine in spector. All the candidates receiving endorsement are Democrats
 The meeting was held behind closed doors and no one was admitted except delegates that had votes. and a few were admitted that were not permitted to vote but who had a voice in tho committee.
 It is rumored that one of the dele gates. in no way connected with the state, travelled from Phoenix to Tue son and return on state scrip.

.LOS ANGELES INSISTS
 |TS TEMBLORS ARE
 ONLY STATE IF MIND

Los Angeles had only psychological earthquake, the Los Angeles chamber of commerce states in a booklet re- viewed yesterday at the Phoenix cham Der of commerce. Here is the review:
 Wind travelling at 100 miles an hour in the Mississippi valley, especially in St. Louis, does more damage than all the earthquakes ever experienced in Los Angeles for 100 years.
 Storms extending from the north pole by way of New York, Boston, Philadelphia. Washington and New Or leans do more damage than Los An geles earthquakes. Ice in Chicago does
Arizona republican., 1920-07-27

The earthquake, it is therefore conclu- sive, cannot be felt above the ball bear ing formation. To quote: The reason seems to be purely psychological, as It is highly probable that if the total deaths from earthquake were recorded they would number far less than those occasioned by storms at sea, cyclone, fire, volcanic eruption or by any violent manifestation of the natural forces. What connection this has with a ball bearing city is not made just clear. But to quote: 'tThe human family re- gards Mother Earth as the foundation of all security; hence, when the final bulwark of all safety gives vent to gyrations it is but natural that hu- mans should be frightened beyond all proportion"
 But the main question put in the book remains unanswered, that is, how can a ball bearing city shake and if it does shake, why it is a state of mind?

What this delay meant to the nations involved was made plain by Sims when he stated that the war cost 5000 lives and one hundred millions in money every day.
