 PAVING PROGRAM FOR
 NEXT TWELvEMONTH

With the recommendation that the city initiate a half million dollar pay ing program for the next 12 months, City Manager Thompson gave a care full resume of general civic conditions to the ciiy commission at it's regular meeting yesterday morning. His state ment said
 Unless the commission sees fit to order additional paving under the 1919 bond act, paving activities will cease in Phoenix on about April 1. which will result in about 250 men be- ing thrown out of employment at time when the city cannot afford to have such a thing occur.
 With the sale of the water works, sewer and fire department bonds and the beginning of operations to install these improvements, the initiation of one-half million dollar paving program for the next twelve months would fur nish payroll in Phoenix that would relieve the financial depression to a great extent and result in a prosper ity that would make it possible for Phoenix to lead all other cities in the southwest in reaping the advantages of a real live city at a time when there will be a large movement of inhabi- tantS from every section of the United States, and those sections of the coun- try which are the first to recover from the depressed conditions now existing will receive more than their propor- l tionate share of the permanent resi- dents of this moving population i The report was brought out in am i swer to petition of occupants of i buildings on Van Buren street between l Central and Third avenues. request l ing that the unpaved street be sprink- , led. The city manager pointed out i that because of the heavy traffic on 1 that street any attempt to keep it sprin6led would only result in distrib- 1 uting mud along the connecting paved l streets in every direction. Along with l a recommendation to have this section l of Van Buren street paved as soon as possible, the report called attention to
 general paving conditions with the
 statement:
 i There seems to be q brisk demand for street improvements in Phoenix | at this time, the property owners being | anxious to pave and willing to pay tho 1 prevailing prices, and. as heretofore. ii ! has been necessary for the city to as
 sume any responsibility in connection
 with the improvement of the streets
 the total expense being paid by the owners of property fronting on said 1 Improvements, it would seem entirely 1 practical and easonable for the city
 to assume it's portion of the respon- l Sihility. if necessary. in order to aSsur.
 he continuance of the improvements
 Action on the report and reCommCu
 dations will be taken hy the city com
 mission al it's next meeting.

Coast Officials Declare Arizona
 Auto License Laws Far Too Lax

application for license. The car is then taken to California where. under the present regulations, Arizona li censed cars are given temporary per- mitS.
 Because of this frequent abuse of the California system, the officials said, the motor vehicle department of California was seriously considering withdrawing the privilege and making tourists take out regular California li- censes
 Of more than 30 stolen motor cars now being held in California all but five of them bear Arizona licenses ob tained with fictitious motor numbers.
 Accompanying McCay and Gilroy back to California last night were three Phoenix motor car owners who will attempt to identify their property stolen from here.
 Several arrests recently have been made at E,l Centro. Cal and officials believe that an important break has been made in a ring of professional motor car thieves. Other arrests may follow soon.
 Bush Anderson. local motor traffic inspector has been working in con l junction with the California officials in running down thieves who have ap- propriated Phoenix automobiles. He | is largely responsible for senate bill l 2S. which received a favorable report | yesterday. This bill seeks to change
 existing automobile registration laws

California authorities will be em powered to hold all drivers of motor cars crossing the line with Arizona licenses and conduct an investigation concerning the ownership of all such cars uless there is curbing of the freedom with which Arizona licenses are dispensed. This is the opinion of c. T. Gilroy. inspector for the motor vehicle department of California
 Records of the local police depart ment show that of several hundred motor cars reported stolen during the past year 5 remain unrecovered. The state has lost many times that num- ber-
 Inspector Gilroy and B. w. McCay, chief investigator of the theft bureau of the Pacific Coast Underwriters con. ference were in Phoenix yesterday to become acquainted with automobile legislation now pending and to obtain Information regarding motor car regu lation in Arizona
 Both officials expressed the belief that the present Arizona licensing sys- tenn was causing trouble for bordering states as we'll as for this state. MT McCay denounced a system of licens- ing where no proof of ownership is required.
 They cited instances where thleves have given fictitious motor numbers to obtain Arizona licenses. Numbers on the stolen car are changed to cor. respond with the numbers given in thu

 QUOTA REACHED
Workers Decide To Con- tinue Efforts Though Real
 Campaign Is Ended Now Have 900 Members

Despite the fact that the reorganized chamber of commerce begins it's activ- ities with 943 members, total said to exceed that of any other chamber of commerce in city the size of Phoenix in the country, and with more than $A1 900 in it's service fund, the cam paign for members and money is to he continued until the service fund quota is attained as definitely ass@was the membership goal This decision was taken yesterday at the final luncheon of the campaign for a greater and better Phoenix, when the team workers resolved to continue their labors until the full s6o,0o0 had been subscribed to the fund.
 The real campaign, however ended with yesterdays luncheon. when Major l.. w. Dupuy, campaign director for the American City Bureau, turned over the work to the local committee. Major | Dupuy was given a vote of thanks for | the energy and enthusiasm he had dis played in conducting the campaign in 1 Phoenix and a vote of appreciation was also given the American City Bu- reau Major Dupuy left last evening for Burbank, Gal. where the American City Bureau is initiating. another cam paign.
 Another feature of the luncheon was 1 the introduction of J. H. Blackmore. field secretary of the bureau, who will remain in Phoenix for month to as sist the new chamber of commerce in l shaping itself according to modern i ideas of chamber of commerce work Blackmore. who is known familiarly as | Jesse" Blackmore, is an expert in chamber of commerce work, and he has already taken the first steps in building up compact and efficient orr sganization in Phoenix.
 Form Bylaws Committee
 This first step is the organiza ton ot bylaws committee, which will revise the present bylaws of the chamber ot commerce to conform with the new in II stitution, so that it will function along
 the lines of upto- date civic bodies This committee has been appointed and
 has had two meetings and in few days it is expected that it will make z complete report of it's activities. The entire team organization vii meet Friday at a luncheon at the Y NJ C. A. when it is expected that the citi-
 Zens of Phoenix will record a series O
 service fund subscriptions that vii equal and exceed the quota aimed a in the beginning of the drive.
 Chief among the workers in the con
 tinuing campaign will be the member U of the Rotary and Kiwanis clubs Tn
 Rotarians have more than dozel
 teams in the field, while the kiwanian d are free-lancing, and the united result V of the work of these men is expecte
 to be the deciding factor in the success . of the campaign.

 BOSTON-Here's a tip for those who will have business with John w. Weeks, who's to be secretary of war under President elect Harding.
 If you want to put him in genial mood, open your conversation by talk ing about either farms or finance. They're his two chief hobbies.
 Weeks arrived" e years ago on farm at Lancaster, N. H. The first F years of his life were spent in milking the cows, and doing the many other chores on his fathers place.
 Firing then of the dreary life in the hills. Weeks got up his "gumption, packed his scanty belongings in bag and fared forth in search of bigger worlds to conquer
 He entered Annapolis and gradu ated in 1881 Two years in the navy as a midshipman were sufficient to show him that he could never enthuse over sea service and he resigned.
 Becomes Banker
 Shortly after he had married Miss Martha Sinclair, in 1885. he was made assistant. land commissioner for the Florida Southern railroad. and in 1888 became a member of the firm of Horn blower and Weeks, bankers and brok- CTS of Boston,
 It was not until 1900 that Weeks began the active political career that has engaged him ever since. A resi- dent Of Newton, Mass, at that time, he campaigned for alderman and was elected. In 1902 he was made mayor of the town Rapid strides up the Re- publican political ladder followed.
 He went to Congress in 1905 and made name for himself as a legisla tor talented in finance and with a fine mind for details.
 In 1912 he was sent from the house to the senate where he served until re- placed recently by David I. Walsh Democrat In the senate he took a prominent part in the debate on the Glass Owen currency act and on other important finance measures. He was long 9 member of the committee of military affairs

 Weeks has the reputation of being Ia plugger. a hard worker, quiet. easy going, never spectacular worker But despite the fact that he never be- comes ruffled, he has the ability to put things across He was the gen eral of the Republican forces in New England.

Buy Your
 Lot Now AND Prepare
 To Build

I am not in the real es- tate business and have no lots to sell. I am buying lots because I believe they are a good investment.
 There may be a few people excited over the general depression and want to sell, but every | close-in lot and every lot | near a street car line will 1 continue to advance re gardless of the times. 1 Phoenix trebled in popu- | lation the past ten years and will more than double l in ten years more. Real estate will more than double in the same time. Lots here have always been too cheap. We did
 not a pore ci a t e them.
 Houses have been so cheaps
 we did not appreciate
 them. Save your money
 and buy a lot. The best
 way is to put your savings
 in a bank where it draws
 interest till you can pay
 cash for a lot; but if you just simply can't stand 1t
 to know you have a few
 dollars in the bank, the next best way is to buy a
 lot on the installment plan. After your lot is l paid for, it is easy to se- cure lumber on credit to build a home. Money in- vested in a home in a city
 like this increases in value fast. There is not one
 chance in a hundred to
 lose if you put your money
 in a savings bank or buy
 a lot, while there is noth- Il ing else can think of that you can buy where Il you have more than one chance in a hundred to | win.
 f There are so m any
 things you can buy that
 depreciate in value so fast when used, that if you
 should want to sell them
 you cannot realize near
 one-half what you paid. you put your money in a bank or buy a lot or build a home, you can alZ ways draw out the full amount with interest. I believe within the next 90 days Phoenix and the en- tire United States will start on the biggest boom we have ever known. The wise home-seeker will forestall the land spectators by having his lot bought when the boom starts.
