SLIGHT OPERATION MI
 DELAY ID GOVERNOR

That the slight operation Governor Campbell was compelled to undergo was not responsible for any change in his plans was the word received by P. R. Mines, private secretary, from the chief executive yesterday. = When he left here for Prescott Saturday Governor Campbell was suffering from n boil inside his nose which necessi- tated lancing. and it was believed that the operation might be of such a na- ture as to prevent him taking the trip ito the strip north of the Grand Can .yon which he planned many months ago in the interests of reclamation.
 After the governor had sufficiently recovered he started for Kingman ac- companied by Mrs. Campbell. and was delayed at Fort Whipple by motor strouble- He wired to Phoenix for parts. Yesterday morning the parts arrived, but failed to fit. and with the new car the executive party is on it's way.
 If the schedule was carried out the governor should have arrived in King man late last night. With ,Mohave county officials he will visit the pro- posed site for a bridge over the Colo rado river which if completed will be a link in the proposed north and south highway from Salt Lake City to Phoe- nix Later he will go north of the can yon. touching poiuxs in Utah and Ne vada where he will be met by officials Of both states.

BAD ROADS DELAY ARMY MOTOR CONVOY
 ID 4O MILES PER DAY

It is possible the United States motor convoy will be abandoned some place in Texas, it was stated at the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce yes terday on receipt of advices from Dallas.
 Bad roads in western Arkansas and northeastern Texas have caused the schedule of the convoy to fall down to 40 miles a day average. The com mander of the convoy wired the Dallas entertainment committee that he does not know when he will reach Dallas or anywhere. The committee had wired him extending an invitation to the personnel for a reception. He thanked tho committee, saying he and his com mand rejoiced that they could be thankful for something.
 The convoy according to the sched- ule was in DeKalb, Texas, yester- day. Dekalb is 18o miles east from Dallas The convoy maintained its schedule to Memphis, according to chamber of commerce advices. This was over paved highways or good roads, gravel and otherwise.
 It was stated at the chamber of commerce that the convoy might may be that the convoy will be abandoned some place in Texas through the destruction of its equip ment, or through a decision that it's equipment is not suited to natural roads in the southwest. or that nothing less than war would induce the convoy to proceed unless the through roads are paved. In any event, it was pointed out at the chamber of com merce, the convoy will be a great boost

HIS ApNANrAGE

(San Francisco Chronicle) "A butcher is lucky in these times Why so?" Because he can always make both ends meat"

, wages were higher than ever before.
people who We're not accustomed TO
spend money began to spend it reck-
lessly and insisted on having the
most expensive goods in the market;
that is. the highest priced goods.
without overmuch regard for the in
trinsic value in it's relation to the
price tag. There were temptations
both on the part Of the buyer and of
the seller and both succumbed. So it
went on madly and merrily.
Within the past few months a
change for the better and a saner
state of mind has been noticed. The
protest against high prices has be-
come general and sincere and the
people who have the spending of the
money are buying with some concern
to see that they get their moneys
worth. That is, spending is Stacking
up, demand is falling off, production
in certain lines is cut and wages are
reduced. Unemployment comes again
into the picture and those who did
not save a portion of their big wages
are frankly up against it. 1t is the
old French fable of the grasshopper
and the ant dramatized by the care
less and the prudent of us humans.

Unemployment

Labor of the semi skilled kind, is
becoming over abundant according
to the records OF the Knights of Co
lumbus, The free employment bu-
reaus of this organization have just
completed Il three months investiga-
ton of the employment situation and
report that the supply of help great
| ly exceeds the demand.
This news is not pleasant but it is
not wholly surprising. There is a
! constant set of relationships between
certain factors in industry, and be-
tween industries as a whole and the
consuming public. When one of
these relationships is disturbed, it
follows that the others also eXper-
fence res-tions. For instance, when
wages go up, prices so up. When
prices rise. wages must be advanced
to meet them. When production
drops or is cut, unemployment in
creases.
The report of the X of c. recog-
nizes the inevitable sequence and
says: The present fall in the prices
Of certain commodities is being &C
companied by a fall in wages for
certain kinds of labor" And how
account for the fall in prices? The
general opinion seems to be that the
public has made up it's mind that it
is time for the wartime price sched-
ulc to end, and having waited in vain
for the price makers to end it, has
decided to do it alone. Hence We
hear of overstocks of goods which
were bought at high prices to be
sold at still higher ones, that are now
begging; and of lack of orders for
new goods until things are a bit more
settled.
Thus the balloon which went so
blithely up, begins to come down
During the war all kinds of things
were scarce and hard to get; fac
tories were turned over to the gov
eminent and worked at top speed

How Foreign Born Citizens Feel
About II

When President Wilson made his
appeal to save the heart of the world
from breaking. did he mention just
where the worlds heart is located
If he did, the statement escaped us.
But we took it for granted as every
body else did, that he meant Europe
as the seat of the worlds emotions.
and that perhaps his words implied
that the smaller fibres which are the
cumb, in case things reached the
breaking point.
Time has passed, and while the
worlds body is still being lacerated
again and again, it's heart has sur
vived. Sometimes it's head appears
to be missing, or atsleast in a state
of temporary alteration, but its
heart is sound and beating with I'M
impaired vigor.
AS to the effect of decentralization
of the Wilson covenant and the gen.
eral foreign policy of the admins
tration, DR.. John Constas, a leading
member of the Greek colony at
Washington, says that the opposition
of many thousands of men of for
eign birth will he reflected in their

President Wilson has handled affairs
| in connection with the settlement of

ignorance of conditions, his procras-
| tination in making up his mind and
his peculiar attitude when he did
reach a decision, were responsible for
much unnecessary bloodshed. Feel
ing as they do and realizing that
| the election of Cox means the con-
tinuation of Wilson, these foreign

minds that their votes shall not have

party to power.

He Helped

More THAI passing notice should
be paid to the significant tributes to
the memory of Winthrop Murray
Crane. There is something sponta-
neous and sincere about them
irrespective Of class, creed or
party. Here are some of them:
"A great man has passed." "Unsel-
fish to an unusual degree" His
judgment was almost unfailing;"
He was an inspiration to public
men of the country" "Staunch friend
and worthy foe" "A more lovable
man never lived"
Yet he was a shrewd, hard head
ed" business man. accumulated
wealth and developed business; was
a "politician"-and acknowledged to
be a statesman before he died; he
held political Office and merited the
encomium: His splendid public
service is an open book" Modest in
the extreme, quiet in his methods,
never making appeal to passions and
prejudices he was found to have the
courage to do the right thing at the
right time. Possessing and piling up
wealth did not harden his heart and
he gave generously without osten-
tation. In whatever he undertook he
helped and wore himself out in the
doing OF it.
= One is reminded that the conditions
under which he was able to do this
that men like him or who strive to
be like him, are being denounced by
4 certain cult not member of whom
in lifetime will ever render as
much of service to mankind as that
given by Murray Crane in an hour
OF his busy life.

The "1imes" Repudiates Cox.

The "1imes" Repudiates Cox.
(Sun and New York Herald)
We find in the esteemed New York
Times this concise statement of a
simple truth.
Nobody believes that either the Re-
publicans or Democrats are going to
make corrupt use of campaign funds
this year; that is. that money is to be
expended for the buying of votes.
AS candidate Cox continues to say
that his opponents are trying to buy
the election, the Times must consider
him the nobody" of it's statement or
else must look upon him as politi-
clan who is making charges which he
knows to be false.
In either case, it is hard to under
