 "In my judgment the arbitrary and unjust action of Secretary Houston of the treasury department should be checked by congress, and you are as- sured of my constant support in every way that will assist you and those for whom you speak"
 Telegrams similar in tenor to the foregoing have been received also frcm others of the Arizona delegation. The telegram of the association which brought out these replies Is as follows:
 "The situation of the cotton growers and wool and cattle men of Arizona is absolutely distressing. Farmers and their organizations have seemingly done everything possible in co-operat- ing and in the use of limited credit to pick their cotton. Most of them can hold on for a while.
 We recommend that congress by a mandatory resolution compel Secretary Houston to revive the war finance cor poration he arbitrarily killed. We rec ommend that federal reserve loans to 1 farmers be extended for a period of 12 months; that property now held in i Washington and belonging to Germany and her citizens be made the basis of additional credits to that country; that

TEN YEAR OLD GIRL
 GETS S25OOO VERDICT
 AGAINST RAILROAD CO.

Frances Edens, the 1O-year- daughter of Mir. and Mrs. John w Eden, 613 South Second street, yester- day was awarded a judgment of $25. 5.O0O against the Arizona Eastern Railway company by a jury in the superior court The suit against the company was filed by the girls father as her guardian and asked for $6O,0O dam ages alleged to have been sustained by the girl through the loss of her right leg after she had been struck by a box car at the crossing on South Central avenue.
 According to the testimony fin the case, the little girl was riding on her bicycle across the tracks on her way to buy a Sunday morning paper on May about 10 a. m. A box car, it was alleged, was standing partially across Central avenue, and as the girl rode by @ switch engine with two or three cars in tow bumped into the box car in an effort to pick 1t up" The car struck the girl, knocking her from her wheel and crushing her leg. But for the quick work of a passing motor cyelist, who caught the child and pulled her from under the wheels, the cal would have passed over the body of the girl, according to witnesses who saw the accident.
 According to the complaint, the righr
 leg was so badly crushed by the wheel. of the car that it had to be amputated and the first toe of the left foot wa:
 also removed. It was alleged that n, flagman was on duty at the crossing at the time of the accident. The rail way company claimed the accident wa. due to the negligence of the girl F'reC c. Struckmeyer was attorney for tn,

department, for a judgment. The suits were filed on behalf of the Chinese by Joseph E. Morrison, former United States district attorney.
 The three suits are similar in na- ture. The Chinese allege the defend ants with force and arms and without probable cause or authority to do so, imprisoned and detained them in their night clothes in the chilly night air for one hour for which they ask S2500 each. As a second cause of action the Chi nese allege that about Il o'clock at night, while they slept the defendants without warning, summons or demand, and without authority or search war rant or other legal process, broke open the rear doors of their places of busi- ness on South First street or Madison street and after violently ejecting them, searched their places. For this they ask $2500 each.
 The Chinese allege that the defend ants threaten to search their places again when they desire, and they ask that a permanent order be issued by
 the court enjoining the defendants from breaking into their places with out a warrant of law. Ye' Don Wah gives his place of business as 20S South First street; Ong Chuey Sin, as 113 East Madison street, and Ong Wing Lung as the corner of Madison and First streets.
 According to the defendants, the raid
 was made with the proper search war rants provided in each case. The of
 ficers claim that in no case was door broken open until the proper demand was made upon the Chinese to open the door, and sufficient time given for the door to be opened. The raid, they say, was conducted in search of some contraband opium which was expected to arrive in Phoenix about Thanks giving time. No trace of the narcotic
 was discovered, although the officers found one aged Chinese with an opium pipe, which was confiscated.

GarY's Wage Advance

The Tribune thinks, in fairness tc
all concerned, that due notice should
be taken of the wage increase grant
ed by the United States steel corpor,
alton. The advance which became
effective February l, was 10 per cent
aggregating $40,O00,0O0 annually
And came after the corporation had
won decisive victory over organized
labor.
According to the unions views this
sort of thing just could not happen.
According to the disturbers, no cor
poration or employer ever does JUS
tice until the unions force 1t through
warfare levied against the corpora
ton or employer.
Mr.. Gary may be the cloven-hoofed
being the labor leaders have pictured
him to be, but just common justice
requires that it be stated clearly that
without complaint from his employees
he voluntarily increased their aggre-
gate pay $4O.00O,OO0 annually.
Not that credit will be given him
for that; of course not. For the pur-
pose OF the steel strike was never so
much to see justice done the wage
earners, as to secure control of the
steel industry. - Tampa Tribune

Atheism and the Reds

United States District Attorney E.
Lowry Humes called attention, in an
address to the Presbyterian ministers
| of Pittsburgh, to \ tenet of the Boil
! sheyiki and their cCnfreres in this
country which makes it impossible
| that they should ever become power
| full in the United States and makes it
probable that their tenure in Russia
will be brief. They are atheists. De-
NAL of the existence of God is not an
incidental part of their creed; it is
fundamental. They themselves not
only admit that this is the case-they
insist upon it. I'VE are atheists"
proclalms a manifesto Of the Com
munist party which has recently run
afoul of the department Of justice.
Their insistence on atheism hand
leaps them as nothing else could. 1t
is the biggest stumbling block to
their progress. For even if they
could persuade any considerable
number of persons to join with them
in destroying the Government they
would never get them to destroy the
church; and though they might win
followers who would deny indivi-
duais' right to private ownership of
property, it would be another matter
to induce them to deny God.
The Reds are at war not only with
the state, but with the church. They
seek to over throw not only govern
meat but religion. But religion is
one of mans greatest needs. He
clings to it aftor all else has gone. !
so illuGtrates the stupidity |
of the radicals as their hCpe that !
they can induce pecp'e to accept |
theism.-Pittsburg Sun.

This ought to be regarded as good
news, despite the fears that have

ed, and that the alien population IS
growing faster than it can be assim-

jobs could be found for them in Phil

to mention in our last number
how nicely Senator Ventress j.

Dreyfus Jared in the committee
assignments for the Legislative
session at Baton Rouge since that
official law-making Body was con-
vened into session. Mr.. Smith
was made the chairman of the
Capital and Labor Committee and
made a member of the Judiciary
Committee, both very important
assignments. Mr.. Dreyfus be-
sides having the distinction of
making the nominating speech in
the House when Mr.. Walker was
made the Speaker was also highly
honored by being made the chair
man of the Ways and Means
Committee. one Of the most i'm
portant to be given any Repre-
sentative. Besides that he was
made vice-chairman Of the Federal

AS THE EDITOR SEES TT.

The bright sunshine of summer
days dispel the spirit of gloom
and instills feeling of gladness
in the human heart. It makes
the bright side of life even
brighter and enables us to see
the goodness which warns the
hearts of our fellow men. It di-
verts our thoughts into pleasant
channels and drives out the sha-
dows which have enshrouded us
during the winter months. Wei
come the sunshine of summer
days, for its warm rays produce
both the JOY and the sustenance
of life.
Don't condemn the staggering
boy too severely. He is not re-
sponsible for his own existence,
nor is he responsible for the traits
of character which put the swag-
ger into his step. Heredity and
often make or break
a boy in the making. Even those
whose home life is not as it should
be may have their characters
strengthened and developed
through the kindness Of others. A
word of sympathy and cheer to the
Lad on the street is a long step to-
ward the moulding of the char
icter Of the man Of the future.

All people of normal intelli-

Words that are the result of ana

that are babbled thoughtlessly
