H. T. Cuthbert & Go. Accountants, Are Engaged to Audit Books of Assistdi : Go. Treas2re- Charg-
 ed With $1100o Shortage

Tombstone-At a special session of the Board of Supervisors, held late this afternoon, H. T. Cuthbert, certi- fled public accountant, of Douglas. was appointed by County Attorney R. N. French, and the appointment confirmed by the board, to make a complete audit of the books of the county treasurer's office.
 The appointment of Mr. Cuthbert was made at the recommendation of MT. Welch and J. c. Darcy, deputy state examiner, following the arrest of w. P. Walker, former deputy treas urer. who was charged with embezz- lement of the county funds
 The board will be in session Mon day, when the amount of MT. Cuth bert's charges will be fixed and he will be authorized to go into the books thoroughly in an effort to finl any further discrepancies which might exist in the accounts of MT. Walker. An audit of the books dating back for the past two years was recommended to the board by MT. Darcy, who stated that in order to make a complete check the books must be gone into during the incumbency of MT Walker as deputy.
 A number Of other discrepanc. ranging from $40 to 5000 We're dis covered today, it is announced by Treasurer Guy c. We1ch anl MT. Darcy in the check of the back tax book for 191S
 Ia an interview with several officials MT. Walker disclaims, any knowledge Of the discrerancies and says he wal comes an investigation. of the books, and that he will make good any short age occurring in his books that can be attributed to him.
 Although a statement was issued by his attorney, J. T. Kangsbury, that $10,000 had been deposited to his credit in the First National Bank as bail money and he would be released this afternoon, up to 4 ocloc'- today MT. Walker was still iii the county jail 7
 He was interviewed at 3:30 this af- ternoon by I. c. E. Adams, chairman of the board, who stated that MT. Walker reiterated what he has previ- ously stated.
 Until Mr. Cuthbert gets to work on the books, which will be either Mon day or Tuesday, no further official an, nouncement of the status of the case is expected, although MT Nelch and the deputy state examiner Mi. Darcy are continuing in their check of the back tax books, and it will not be known what shortages there will b5 i until complete audit of the books is made. MT. Cuthbert this afternoon could not state, he said, how long il would take, bearing on the condition of the book.

WAGE REDUCTION IN THE DISTRICT |S POSTPONED UNTIL
 JANUARY 1ST

Further announcement was made this week by the Arizona Copper CO. Ltd, and the Phelps Dodge Corpora tion, Morenci Branch, that the reduc tioE in wages in this district fixed for December 18th had been post poned to January 1, 1921.
 This action was taken by the com panies in conformity with the acton of a majority of the copper companies of the state and in compliance with the wishes of the district grievance committee.
 In Clifton the district grievance committee met with General Manager Carmichael on Friday December 10th at which time the committee was in formed of the reduction.
 Because of the low price of copper and the little demand for it at any price the copper producers of Arizona have decided to reduce wages and thus be enable to continue operation rather than abandon production en- tirely and throw thousands of miners and smeltermen out of employment Of course it is a matter of regret to see the wages of so many in the dis trict lowered; cutting wages in any industrial community has a depres sing effect. but according to the cop per producers, it was necessary to either cut the cost of labor or cease operation, which would put an end to all wages in the copper districts of the state.

J. s. Douglas, president of the Unit ed Verde Extension Mining company arrived in Douglas this week from Jerome, where he had been on a visit of two weeks. MT. Douglas brought the word that his company is getting along as we'll as could be hoped for under present conditions of the cop per market. He said there was no shutdown contemplated. The cattle and sheep industries in Northern Ari- zona are in fair condition and much better off than the producers of cop purchased $75,000 in school bonds from the Jerome district.
 MT Douglas thinks the time is now at hand when there should be extreme economies practiced by the state gov ernment and that there should be no thought of spending one dollar by the incoming legislature except to meet the most dire necessities. The bur- den of taxation he regards now near the point where it may result in great injury to the industries of Arizona and to a representative of the Daily International he said:
 The U. V. Ex. Taxes
 "A case that is more or less in par allel to many others, and that should be food for thought for all taxpayers of the state is that of the United Verde Extension Mining company.
 During the war the company paid to the federal government over two million dollars for the years 1917 and 1918. In 1919, their state, county and municipal taxes increased over the same taxes for 1918 more than $1OO, 900 including capital stock tax'of S41, 900, amounted to S4Ss,000 which, appli ed to the tonnage of ore extracted, in cluahg low grade silicious ore, was S5.23 a ton, and, applied to the total tonnage of copper produced was .-olos cent per pound of copper.

TEAM NUMBER
 THREE BASEBALL
 CHAMPIONS

The indoor baseball season is at end and Team No. 3, explained by Andrew Liddell, of the General office, is the winner.
 As a special incentive the Y.M.C.A. had promised to the winning team of the season a turkey dinner to be serv. ed at the ''Y", but at the conclusion of the series the winning team came forward with the generous offer that instead of a turkey dinner for them. selves that a general smoker be g1v- en for all three teams. In pursuance of this program the losers were m vited and Tuesday evening Dec. IA, selected as the evening.
 The various fans gathered and play, ed the games all over again, and some other games.
 Following the games they went to the dining room where a buffet lun cheon was served.
 During the luncheon Mr. Mat Dan enhauer presented umpire Murphy with a small memento, as a token oi esteem and appreciation on the part of the boys. Among other things MT Dan nhauer said, in paying tribute to the excellent work of MT. Murphy that to him above all others was que the credit and success of the indoor Baseball season at the "Y".
 MT Murphy responded by saying that he had done the best he knew how and given the best there was ir him as his part of the game, and that the others might have good> time ''but it sure was some job" That he esteemed the memento that had beer given him, not for it's intrinsic worth but for the valued memento of friend ship that lay behind it.
 Team No. was composed of the following stars:
 A. W. Liddell, Capt; w. J. Riley Geo. R. Drysdale, Chas. Miller, Laurie Smith, Ben Ferhman, E. Robinson P. Arzate, J. J. McLoy H. Houck, L T. Payne.

JAMES $. DOUGLAS POINTS OUT
 DANGER SIGN IN INCREASED TAXES

The bonds, approved by the people, were about to be sold at 90 cents on the dollar and an injunction was ne- cessary to be asked for from the superior corrt in order to prevent their sale in contravention of the law, the law preciding that bonds bearing [ per cen+ irtel est should not be sold at less than par
 Bonds increase Taxes
 Many people think that bond is sue does not notably increase taxation The bond issue referred to requires that the taxpayers of Yavapai county pay $90,000 year in interest, and $75,000 year for redemption fund, so that the total loan made by the county can be returned to the bond holders in 20 years.
 ''The Unied Verde Copper company and the United Verde Extension Min ing company pay more than 65 per cent of the total taxes of Yavapai county and, consequently. between them would have to pay in interest and for the retirement of the bonds over $135, 1000 a year. The railroads of Yavapai county, that are at pre- sent the only other industry that is making money, pay less than ID per cent of the takes to the county, and yet railroad rates are crushing the life out of the surviving industries.
 How can people wisely read these facts, and understand these figures without being anxious to call hali in the wild expenditures of money ir this state, and without each and every one of them addressing their repre- sentatives in the legislature to see tt it that the cost of the running of the state of Arizona, at least for the year: | 1921 and 1922, be reduced to one-hal of the present cost of the operation of the state?
 At the present time the point o the knife is just over the jugular veil 1 of the goose that lays the goldel 1 egg, namely the copper mining ir dustry of the state of Arizona, and i is time that each and every voter o ] the state sees to it that the goose b not killed.'

STATE BONDS FOR RECLAMATION ID
 BE ASKED

Phoenix, Dec l1-State aid for re- clamation projects will be one of the foremost subjects to come up at the next session of the legislature, is the forecast of Con Cronin, state legisla- tive reference librarian, who has re- ceived any number of inquiries on the subject.
 There are about a half a dozen re- clamation projects in the state, whose promoters will in all probability seek appropriations from the state, or ask that some system be devised which will aid them. Among them are nam ed the Charleston project in Cochise county, which would place about 15,- 900 acres in the San Pedro valley un- der cultivation; the Cunningham valley project in northern Yuma county, the rado river, the Cliff project above Franklin and the Lyman dam on the Little Coolrado.
 Many Thousands Needed
 The last named project has been the subject of state aid for the last four years through the state loan board It fs understood that many thousands of dollars will yet be need Cd IO InS udIn lO Iile lu1 height originaly planned.
 Direct appropriations for these pro | iects would have been unnecessary had the people passed the initiative proposition which appeared on tht ballot at the general election provid ing for state, guarantee of irrigation | district bonds.
 Owing to the fact that this measure was not fully understood by the grea ] mass of voters, it was defeated, in thu opinion of w. s. Norveil. state wate commissioner Discussing the meas ure he said:
 Under it's terms the mode of ope1 ] ation was simply this: Any irrigation district desiring to sell it's bond could make application to the, stat for an investigation. If this showe' that the project was feasible then tn state would take up the bonds at si per cent, at the same time placin on the market state bonds at fiv | per cent. The plan is perfectly feat ible and the state fully protected a the assessments against the land. ar collected with the state and count taxes.
 However, Lido not favor the initis tive manner of changing the constitr tion which was required in this case Too many voters are inclined to vot no aganst a proposition they do no fully understand and perhaps it is wei that they should. The better plan fo matter of this kind is to take through the legislature where ther is better opportunity to thresh out al the points and have them submitte to competent attorneys. Then if tn l measure carries it can be passed u to a vote of the people at the mex general election or at a special elet tiop if necessary"
