NEW YORK, Sept 9.-Immigrstion
officials OF the old regime. who have
been more or less petulant over the
leniency with which the new com
missioner, Frederick A. Wallis, has

The reason for their exchange OF
chuckles and knowing glances was not

The world knows by this time that
one OF the pleasing features Installed
by the new commissioner Is the sun
day concert. at which the new arrivals
are assembled to hear the national
anthem played by a good band, sing

So last Sunday the usual concert
was given, but IL transcribed all It's

SO enhancing was the terpsichorean

and even the guards relaxed under the

The only persons to whom IL meant
little as an attraction were three OF

restoration of their freedom and sov- ereignty."
 Tn his statement Secretary Colby said:
 'The position of the United States with relation to Haiti should not be misunderstood and it certainly should not be misrepresented even under the temptations that a political campaign presents to irresponsible utterance and conscious unveracity.
 NThis country is engaged in task which has only a benevolent purpose. The work which the United States un- dertook to do is nearing completion ment hopes to withdraw and leave the administration of the islands to the unaided efforts of the Haitien people.
 "As is well known, for many years prior to 1915, Haiti was the scene of many revolutions and chronic disor- ders. The revolutions were some times accompanied by wholesale massacres and always by serious fatalities. The continuation of these conditions came with the murder of President V. G. Sam, who was dragged by a mob from the French legation where he had taken refuge. This grave affront to the rights of the French government resulted in the landing of French troops on Port Au Prince. At this time Haiti's European creditors were press ing for payment of the foreign debts and the fear was generally entertained that murder of the Haitien president would prompt an aggressive program | on the part of some European gov ernment which would not only csal- lenge the Monroe doctrine but arraign the United States for a failure to per form duties which it had expressly | avowed as a part of the Monroe doc Urine.

GOVERNOR CAMPBELL SOUNDS KEYNOTE IF ARIZONA CAMP PAI G N
Especial to The Republican)

Especial to The RePublcan) 1 BISBEE, Ariz., Sept. 20.-Introduced 1 by the chairman as the only governor
 Arizona has had since statehood. | Thomas l.. Campbell formally opened l his campaign for re- election here to- night before an audience that filled i Grand theater to capacity.
 l The governor declared that if he did not believe sincerely he could be of real 1 service to the people of the state he would not seek reelection.
 ] Referring to his past service he de- i clared that he felt considerable pride l in the fact that since his election the I former spirit of unrest which prevailed ! in this state had disappeared to such 1 an extent that during the past two 1 years, when Europe was seething with
 unrest and the United States as whole showed some of the same con ] dition, Arizona had proved the most l peaceful and industrious state in the entire union.
 i In touching on state institutions Governor Campbell said when his ad- ministration went into office he found l tremendous deficits in the treasuries of | all such institutions. These have since l been wiped out and he said he was | glad to report that during the past year the institutions were administered
 at saving of S141,000, with the single
 exception of the insane asylum, where
 a deficit of $16,000 was more than off set by the number of patients who had l been restored through treatment to ac- l tive and normal life. He spoke of improvements at the ! University of Arizona and the great strides made in vocational education during the past few years. He said | the state is now spending one half mil I lion dollars for this class of education
 as against $2O.0O0 three years ago. | The road mileage built by the state | has been doubled under his admins
 tration, he declared.
 ] He pointed out the urgent necessity i for this in Arizona and pointed to the 1 significant fact that under the demo-
 cratic administration not a single | shovelful of dirt had been turned on ! any new reclamation project. | In conclusion the governor declared 1 that his desire was to continue the work he had begun toward the recla- nation of waste lands of the state, to make more valuable the heritage of 1 the people given them in state lands,
 which he declared should be conserved | for the benefit of all the people ana
 not in tn selfish interests of the few. 1 Cleon T. Knapp presided as chair i man. Other Republican state candi- | dates present and delivering short ad-
 dresses included w. J. Galbraith, for
 attorney general; E. J. Flanigan, for
 judge of the supreme court; Miss FL i sic Toles for superintendent of pub
 lie instruction; Jack White, for mine 1 inspector.
 The governor and party leave to-
 morrow morning for Douglas where a
 night meeting will be held.

 This is Colonel Rountree's third visit 10 Phoenix, he said in closing
 My first visit here in 1918 was as . scout representing Senator Bank heao and the postoffice and postroads committee of the senate. My second Vtslt was in 1919 with the pathfinder group of government engineers and now l come with the commanding of hcer of great government convoy sent by the war department to report on the feasibility Of this route as a military highway.
 On my first two trips the highway was but a dream, represented by a red me on map. Today over 1000 miles or the road is actually built of hard surfaced material. Over two thirds of It's entire length of 4000 miles is now financed. Every state highway com mission in the 12 states crossed by the Bankhead highway has officially adopted and designated this route as the trans continental highway and taken action to insure it's first con struction.
 Found Fine Roads Here
 ''In all this great system we have recently inspected we have found no road of finer type or more permanent construction than that on which we nave traveled today in Maricopa coun- tyr and the road in this county could well be a model for the entire route"
 Colonel Franklin stated that it was not his duty to make public statements as to routes until his report was made to his superior officer He stated however, that it was unfortunate that owing to temporary bad crossing on the Gila 1t was necessary to make a detour from the Bankhead route and that the road through the Salt and Gila valleys as far as he had seen it was perfectly practicable.
 Tomorrow morning. accompanied by Harold Bargman, county engineer Colonel Franklin goes west over the proposed Bankhead highway for a per- Sonal inspection of the route.

Cocoaput Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alRali. This dries
heSscalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful Mulsified cocoanut
oil shampoo (Which is pure and entirely
greaseless) is much better than any,
thing else you can use for shampoo
ing. as this can't possibly in1ura the
hair.
Simply moisten your hair with wa
ter and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfu1s will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly. and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age. u
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at most any drug store. It is
very cheap, and a few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the family
for months.-Adv.

According to the informal com
