Hurdle On Track;
Train Is Stopped;
Prank Is Serious

Detective Kelly, of the Southern
Pacific company, and Chief of Po-
lice Welsh are at present searching
for the parties who placed hurdle
on the s. p. railroad track near the
Washington junior high school
Monday. A train was forced to
come. to a stop while the hurdle
was removed.
That the hurdle was placed on
the track by boys who believed
they were doing something funny,
is the belief of Chief Welsh. Had
the train struck the hurdle the re-
suit might have been serious, he
said, and every effort will be made
to locate the guilty parties.

Corruption
On Shipping
Board Denied
Lack Of Coordination
is Responsible for
Inefficiency; Salem
Man Implicated

New York, Nov. 11.-Praetices of
the United States shipping board
which led to the present investiga-
tion by the Walsh congressional
committee have not been corrupt"
according to Commanders "A. B.
Clement executive assistant to Rear
Admiral W. S. Benson. who was the
principal witness at the commit
tees hearing here today.
If there is ground for criticising
the shipping board administration
Commander Clement declared, it is
upon the ground that'a perfect "co-
ordination between the different
departments has not been attain
ed"
Commander Clement admitted
that the shipping board had in
some cases paid exorbitant wages.
common laborers having at times
received the pay of experts. Eff
forts were made, however, he said,
to stop this.
Salem Man Involved.
AS to building contract cancella-
tions and hull removals the report
now before the investigators asserts
that the shipping board entered in
to a contract with George F. Rog-
erS to remove hulls which were on
the ways in an unfinished state at
the time the contract was signed or
to secure from the builders or the
owners of the land upon which the
hulls and ways rested a release
from further liability.
For some reason" said the re-
port, "the United States shipping
board saw fit to make contract
with Rogers to pay him $4,000 pc,
hull for each hull thus handled by
him. The result has been that in
many cases the United States ship
ping board has paid an additional
$4,000 per hull to have Rogers sell
the hui or give it away, in man,
cases the cost of the hull represent {
ing several thousand dollars. Rog-
ers has found no difficulty in sell
ing these hulls at very fair price
which revenues revert to Rogers
in addition to which he collected
from the United States shipping
board emergency fleet corporation
$4,000 fee.'

Is it not strange that the hero of a novel is never killed on the first page? And is 1t not strange that amidst all the chances of life you, gentle reader, should be the one person in all the world who sits where you are at this instant reading this column2
 Stranger still, perhaps, that amidst all the possible matings of men and women since the world began your own particular ancestors made the mar riages that they did-to bring you into existencel
 If your father or your great grand father had happened to marry Eliza instead of Jane, what would have hap pened to you? Would someol e else be reading this in your place and wonder ing, just as you are, why it is he and not your
 to you, and you can tell the tale of the Pilgrim or other ancestors that found or fought their way across the sea and made a place for the children. And, perhaps, you say how good it was that the ship did not founder and the pas- sengers survived. It seems providen- tiali And yet if our ancestors had missed the combination that led to you someone else might be filling your place thinking of providence, too.
 Dead men tell ITO xRles; and neither do men unborn. The living survivor led to him and to the things that he is used to and likes seems as though it must have been specially planned.

They worked in New York a month and began their homeward journey on October To. They visited Philadelphia, Washing ton, D. C., and then went through the coal district in West Virginia to Charleston. From there they went to Louisville. Ky, and then to Mammoth Cave in Kentucky.
 They rehained in Charlotte for two weeks and participated in possum hunt which netted two of the animals. From there they went to Memphis and then to Little Rock, Ark. In Arkansas they experienced some very cold weather in which the water in the radiator of their Ford, which they then were driving, froze and broke it while they were driving the car. From Dallas they went to Fl Paso via, Fort Stockton. The western roads, they said. were much better than the dirt roads of the east. They arrived in Fl Paso on November g and left at mid night that night in a nonstop drive to Phoenix in order to arrive home in time for the turkey dinner During the trip they took more than 400 photographs with two cameras. These pictures represent the most interesting scenery and incidents they saw on their trip.

Fro mthere they went over the Santa Fe trail through Winslow, Springerville, Albuquerque, to Denver where they arrived on June IT. They drove their motorcycle to the top of Pikes Peak. 14,109 feet in height. The last thousand feet of the ascent they said. was made in three feet of snow. At Denver they worked for two weeks before proceeding to Kansas City where they arrived on July 1. A severe thunderstorm there drove them to a hotel. From Kansas City they went to Omaha and then to Des Moines, Iowa. where they worked for three weeks. From there they went to Minneapolis and then to Milwaukee. During the trip to that city, they broke seven springs and had a great deal of trouble with the side car which came loose at times and spilled its passenger in the brush.
 They remained in Milwaukee three weeks working before proceeding to Chicago and on to Toledo. Ohio. Be- fore they reached Toledo. they had four days of steady rain which slowed them up. At Detroit they went over into Canada to Toronto and back to Niagara Falls where they went under the falls. On their trip through New York state, they encountered the finest roads they travelled during the trip. From Boston. where they were lost several times because of crooked streets, they went to Eastport, Maine the fartherest eastern point in the United States.

example. much good will be accom- plished for the campaign.
 Whiel the school children are can- wasting the residence districts in the Red Cross roll call, members of the Business and Professional Women's club will be at work in the downtown section. The Osborn district will be covered by members of the Osborn Woman's club. The Madison, Creigh- ton and Ccottsdale districts also are being covered.
 The quota of the Central Arizona chapter in the roll cali is 5000 members. but every effort is being made to ex- ceed that number. Everyone knows ho wvitally important the work of the Red Cross is; everybody has an oppor- tunity to share in it. The cost is but k1.00.
 Persons who are not asked by the workers to join the Red Cross durin' the roll call are urgently requested 10 bring or send their memberships in to the chamber of commerce, where some one will be in attendance to receive them. Thus there is no reason why every man and woman in Phoenix should not join.
