GOOD HEALTH FOR JUNE

It is interesting to note the falling off of communicable diseases for the month of June, reports the State Board of Health. This is particular ly true of the incidence of smallpox. Since the first of the year, the numb CT of cases has gradually increased until May when 55 cases were report ed from 5 counties. During June, the number of eases dropped to 15.
 In Gila County there were 16 cases of scarlet fever. 2 cases in Graham and 3 in Yavapai.
 Of the other communicable diseases, the number of cases were negligible. Maricopa and Pinal counties report ed one case each of Infantile Paral,f ,f- sis. Cochise reported case of Ma,ta fever, a disease contracted from ,roats.

STATISTICS SHOW GROWTH

An examination of the births and deaths reported to the Arizona ota.> Board of Health at different periods is of considerable interest. The first number of the quarterly Bulletin of the Health Department issued Nov. 1, 1917, shows the Births to have been at the annual rate of 1,212 and the deaths, 1888. For the year ending June 30, 1910, there were 3,054 deaths. The deaths for 1919 numbered 5,040. In 1918 the influenza epidemic brought the death list to 6,623 The births for 1918 were 6,257; for 1919, 6.591.

CORPORATION TAX
CASE TO HIGH COURT
FINAL TRIBUNAL WILL PASS ON
QUESTION OF LIABILITY OF
SHARES FOR TAXATION.

Whether or not corporate shares of
stock in a concern that is already tax
ed as a corporation are subject to tax
alton in the hands Of the individual
owners will finally be passed upon by
the supreme court. The case Of j. A.
Sloan Company in the chancery court
of this county to enjoin the city's col
lection of this tax and which was de-
cided in favor of the compliments,
has been appealed by the city to the
supreme court This case not only in
wolves the taxation Of the stock Of the
]. A. Sloan Company, but it likewise
involves the taxation of shares of
stock in every corporation i'm the
state and for that reason has attracted
wide interest Should the contention
of the city be sustained the state and
county would insist upon the collec-
ton of similar taxes with the result
that corporations would not only be
taxed on their stock but the same
stock would also be taxed in the hands
of the individuals who owned it for
all purposes. .y s s

Members Who Voted Monday for the
English Resembling Resolution Are

of Half Dozen New Pixies.

From Wednesdays Daily. Herald.)
A bond issue of million or more
dollars for road projects in Maury
county. That is a proposition that is
being seriously considered by mem
bers of the county court and others
following the action of the court here
on Monday. A petition to Judge Whit
thorne to call the court together at an
early date to vote on the question is
being urged by some OF the members
of the court. One or more members
of the court who on Monday voted for
the English resolution to repudiate
the county's connection with the
state highway contract have express
ed themselves as favorable to fur
Their bond issue provided the sum was
made large enough to take care of
half dozen or more roads leading
into Columbia.
II all who voted against the English
resolution should vote for million
dollar bond issue and provide for a
half dozen roads, it is certain that
there would be enough in the ranks
of the other side to give a majority
for the proposition. One member of
the court declared Monday after the
adjournment of the justices that if an
east and west highway could be con-
structej he and one or two others
would vote for the whole proposition.
One of the active advocates of the
big bond issue said tOf course we
can't build a million dollars worth OF
roads at one time. That is out of the
question. We probably could not get
the labor. But If the court will au-
thorize an issue of that size and pro-
vide for say the Hampshire pike. the
wiIliamsport pike. the Santa Fe pike
and the Lewisburg pike as funds from
the state and federal governments be-
come available, or IL there is no assur-
ance of getting money within a reas-
enable time from those sources, to
build narrower and, cheaper roads, |
think much If not all of the opposition
to the bond issue will vanish. In 9TH
err words the people are willing that
the roads already projected may be

three members of the court who voted
for the English resolution personally
doubted its wisdom but they voted in
response to what appeared to them to
be the overwhelming sentiment of
their constituents. These men, 1t Is
said, want to join the ranks of the
progressive road advocates.
