 IDEA BEHIND BOBRD

Isc Of the quarantine. not ii $ a dras- tie remedy to be applied after de struCtive crop pest has gained a foot hold. b}st raaher as an ounce Of pre- Ventiou'' which is better than a pound of cure. is the idea underlying the formation Of the Western Plant Quar- antine board. which held it's second annual convention at Salt Lake City Utah. May II to l 3. 1920. according 10 Andrew kimbaH. member of the board and chairman Of the Arizona commits sion of agriculture and horticulture who has just returned from the meet ing of the board.
 The board was organized at River side. Calif. last year Membership in tiio J5TEz5fi..z=sss. z>:z Includes the nuaran- tine officials of all of the western states. lower Californis. and British Co- lumbia. The purpose Of the orgauiza- tiC', is to gather and disseminate plant u1..sa..1 ''~'-rnafton among its members: the development of closer re- lations between plant quarantine off Cials of the western states for mutual protection of the agricultural crops: and the notification and betterment of interstate plant quarantine service.
 Mir. kfmball spent several days in Sacramento, San Francisco. Stockton and Los Angeles in the study of Cali fornia's quarantine measures. Con siderable time was spent in the offices and laboratories of the state quarantine board at San Francisco and among the commission merchants and in the GUS tom house. where he was shown what California is doing to protect the west ern states from plant diseases and de- structive insects. To guard against tl,e introduction of these destructive pests, California spends over S360 900 annual ly. or s1,0OO a day.

A car load Of Hup- mobiles. comprising four touring ears and one roadster. will probably arrive tomorrow or next day for the George II. Reuben Auto company at 221 N- Central avenue. who have the state agency for these cars.
 The last carload of EIups that arrived in Phoenix was sold almost before the car was unloadeG. Hence 1t will be readily seen that the Hupmohile needs no introduction to Phoenix motorists.

AUTOS ARE MUCH MORE IN DEMAND
 THAN BEFORE WAR

LONDON. - Purchasing an auto mobile in England these days is largely matter of futures" pay ing for options on machines not yet built. At the automobile show here recently, at which there were more people and fewer cars than ever before. s5,00G was paid for the op- tion on sl5,00O chassis that could not possibly be delivered before next spring. The same amount was col lected by a man for his place among the first fifty to whom the manu- lecturers of an expensive car are to deliver machines soon after the first of the year.
 So many have been dealing in future contracts with the intention of selling their priority rights that one large firm has made its con- tracts non-negotiable.
 After the second day of the show, the agents for an American manu- facturer of a light, cheap, popular car were reputed to have accepted orders for 3s,000, with no delivery promises. Although pressed to ac- cept more orders, they refused on any condition whatever.
 Conveniences on the American cars attracted much attention at the show. Some of the improvements that Americans take as matter ot course are rarely seen on British cars. Manufacturers of machines selling from s2,0oo to s4,ooo still prominently advertise that a self starter is included. It is not un- usual to see a driver cranking up g s15,o00 car because it has no start

GOVERNOR FEARS
 BClSHtV|KI WILL
 CAPTURE ALASKA

ing that '.for lack of intelligent Government assistance .he truly great resources of Alaska must per force lie in idleness," Governor Thomas Riggs. Jr-, in his annual report, made public recently, voices plea for the adoption by the Gov ernment of a more .ibera! Alaskan policy. The report said lawlessness, particularly that fomented by rro- Germans, I. w. w, and Bolshevik elements" was becoming a menace.
 Appropriation are placed at such low figure as to preclude effective ness; rich mining regions are made unavailable for lack of transporta- ton facilities; fisheries are threat ened with exhaustion for lack of protection; natives, in time of cpl denies, are allowed to die of dis ease and starvation. and. as re- suit of laws and regulations. at ev- cry turn appears the huge Teutonic sign 'Verboten." the Governor said,
 "The people of Alaska" he added, i''hold out their handz .o Washing ton, not as supplicants for bounty, but in petition to be allowed to de- velop as were the Western terri tories, now the great Western states"
 Referring to the menace of in ,creasing radicalism in Alaska. the report said:
 indications point to a continued immigration as the result of army demobilization and the closing of wartime industries. Alaska is re- ceiving the extremes of the social scales. On the one hand the fine young men of the type who devel- oped the great Western states are becoming evident in increasing mum bers. and, on the other hand, the I. W. W, alien enemy, and Boi- sheviki. knowing the unprotected
 condition of the Territory. are ar
 irving in force and making their presence known. The great mum
 bers of foreigners in Alaska who can hardly speak the English lan-
 guage fall easy victims to the in lsidious propaganda of the seditious
 agitator It does not seem right that the decent, honest, law-abding majority should not receive full pro,
 lection at all times"
 The Governors report deplorei
 the action of Congress in failing to : appropriate money for the relief of the native population during the re- cent severe outbreak of influenza in the Far North There were more
 than 1,500 deaths, chiefly among the natives, Governor Riggs report ed. and conditions in the interior
 of the country were beyond de scription. The entire adult popula ton of many villages was wiped out, the report stated, and hundreds of children starved or succumbed tc cold.
