TO ATTEND HEARING
 OF B. R. RATE CASE

Amos A. Betts of the corporation commission will represent the state when the proposed increase in intra- state rates comes up for oral argu- ment before the interstate commerce commission in Washington on April 15 Testimony was taken in Phoenix several months ago at which time the corporation commission held that the interstate commerce commission had no jurisdiction in raising rates of railroads within the state of Arizona. The state commission previously had denied the increase to the carriers.
 Immediately after his return from Washington, MT. Betts, with Commis- sioner Loren Vaughn and Ben Fergu- son, engineer to the commission, Will leave for Pueblo to make an investi- gation of the Baker Steam Motor Car company. The company incor- porated in 1917, and two years ago ap- piled for a permit to sell stock in thls state The application was denied.
 .'rThe company has so much confl- dence in its plant that 1t has invited an inspection by the corporation com mission and will pay all expenses in connection with the investigation,
 said MT. Vaughn, who added that the inspection of the plant and records of the company would determine whether the application will be granted to do business in Arizona.

that the Scriptures, as the word of God, were The only safe guide in faith and doctrine. This event is being commemorated, not only because of its influence upon modern religious liberty, but also because it was one of the most important incidents in the history of the Reformation. Pastor Frey, in planning a special sermon for next Sunday in coInmemoration of the event.
 The following account of Luther's trial reveals some of it's dramatic phases:
 "Everyone's dinner got cold in Worms when Martin Luther, out lawed. came to answer for himself at the first Diet of Emperor Charles V held in that city in 1521.
 The summons reached Luther just before Easter, and he came to the Diet immediately after that festival. All the way he was greeted by throngs of admiring people. Though he had a safe conduct, guaranteeing him protection until he should re- turn, many feared he would be assas- sinated in Worms. But he went bravely on, saying: If there were as many devils in Worms as there are tiles on the roofs l would have no fear
 The Trial
 Tt was late in the afternoon and darkness was falling. Luther's books were piled on a table before the em- peror. The representatives of the church were not present, unwilling to countenance or hear the heretic in his own defense. He was asked If the books were his. When the titles were read he acknowledged them Asked if he would repudiate his ideas as they appeared in the books. he requested time for consideration.
 The next day he was asked, Will here?' Luther replied: There are three groups of my writings. One group, the first, consists of those things which all hold to be true. ] could not 'repudiate them without be- ing the only one to deny them. The second group attacks the tyranny and corruption of the Pope, which arc known to all. The third group at tacAs individuals. In this group have been unnecessarily severe. But to deny them would seem to condone the abuses these men uphold. therefore could not repudiate them either.' This answer did not satisfy and the emperor asked for a plain answer. Luther replied: Unless am convicted by Scripture or by right reason (for I trust neither in popes nor councils since they have often erred and contradicted themselves) unless I am thus convinced I am bound by the texts of the Bible, my conscience is captive to the word of God. I neither can nor will recant anything, since it is neither right ol safe to act against conscience. Goo help me. Amen
 Uproar and confusion followed The emperor adjourned the session as Luther said: I cannot do other wise. Here I stand. God help me- That was the stand which affected | modern religious liberty and through it to a large degree modern demo. cratic ideals. Individual democratic | freedom in and under Gods word i: l the hope of national and internationa | progress"

Hyder's Store closed all day Thursday to arrange our wonder full stock of spring merchandise which goes on sale, starting Fri day morning at o'clock.
 We haven't the words to tell you about the meaning of this big sale which will represent such a ter rife cut in prices that you can only realize by coming in and see ing for yourself. We are not hid ing behind false colors, and are frank to admit that our only ex- cuse for starting the season with such a price cutting sale is that we are absolutely forced to raise the cash and must do it immediately.
 This sale knocks all to pieces our many years of merchandising principle which has kept us from putting on sales of one sort or an- other as we fully believe that the public's confidence has been mis- treated in so many instances. This will of course come as a big sur prise to the merchants that are in the same line of business because this is the first time we have started a proposition of this kind in Phoenix. Necessity is the mother of invention and with us there Is no recourse as we must raise the money to meet our legiti- mate obligations In order tq raise this money nowadays we ard forced to sell at a loss and put our high grade merchandise at prices so low that no one in the market for anything in mems wearableS can afford to pass up this oppor- tunity.
 We will be closed all day today arranging our stock of merchan- disc, putting on extra salesmen, and our big ad in tonight and to- morrow's papers will tell more than words can say that we are in earnest and that our entire stock of high grade merchandise is to be rssold at prices never dreamed of.
 Remember, our prices had al ready been adjusted when we took our losses.
