A Proclamation Of Labor Day
BY THE GOVERNOR OF
ARIZONA.

Nature is closely associated in
the minds of the human race
with immortality. It's mani
festations and the lessons CLEAN
ed from its study. point out and
support the hope. and what we
believe to be the truth that
though a man die, yet shall
he live again" 1t is therefore
understandable why the people
of the State of Arizona, through
it's legislature, decreed that the
Governor shall designate and
set apart a day on which things
material are forgotten and that
it be devoted to the observance
Of a significant and meaningful
custom.
1t is the duty of the Governor
to make proclamation recon-
mending that the Arbor Day es-
tablished be observed in the
planting of trees, shrubs and
vines, in the promotion of forest
and orchard growth and culture.
in the adornment of public and
private grounds. places and ways
and in SUCH other efforts and
undertakings as shall be in har-
mony with the character of the
day so established" !"
There is special admonition in
the statutes that the children of
public schools shall assist, to
the end that school grounds
shall be adorned with trees, this
to be an object lesson in the
benefits of the preservation and
perpetuation Of the forests. It
is made the duty of the school
authorities to cause the children
to assemble and to hold exer-
cises to include the planting,
protection and preservation Of
trees and shrubs.
In no other section of our
Union is this day of such prime
Importance as in Arizona. Here
a tree means the presence of
water and its shade is doubIy
grateful to the wayfayer or to
the homebuilder. The planting
of trees means development and
the advance of civilization. Our
State is of such grand dimen-
sions and of such variant eli
mates that it has been found
necessary to provide two dates,
for different attitudes.
Now Therefore, |, Thomas E.
Campbell, Governor of the State
of Arizona, by virtue Of the au-
thority vested in me. and in
conformity with the provisions
of Paragraphs 2837-2840, Chap
ter Xxx of the Revised Statutes
of Arizona, do hereby designate
and set apart Friday, the 4th
day of February, 1921. as Arbor
Day, to be observed in the coun-
ties of Cochise, Gila. Graham.
Greenlee, Maricopa, Pima. Pinal.
Santa Cruz and Yuma; and SINH
larly do | designate and set
apart Friday, the 9Th of April,
1921, as Arbor Day for due OBJ
servance in the Counties of
Apache, Coconino, Mohave, Nav
ajo and Yavapai; and urgently
request that the people gener-
ally join in the proper observ-
ance of these occasions.
In Witness Whereof, | have
hereunto set my hand and caused
the Great Seal of the State of
Arizona to be affixed. Done at
Phoenix. the Capital, this 1st
day of February, 1921.

(Great Seal) Governor.

Oppose Mayor Hylan of New
York

political leaders to hold the balance of
power to-day in the primaries that will

The mayor has no Democratic OPP
ponent The polls were to be open

date, has the backing of the regular
Republican machine, but the other
three contestants have large follow
ings and close race was predicted by
impartial observers. LaGuardie has
made his prime issue an attack on the
Republican machine and especially on
Governor Miller, whom he has criti-
cised for his alleged anti-home rule at
titude. Judge Haskell, an avowed
wet" based his campaign on claim
that his showing would serve as an
indirect referendum" on prohibition.

for borough president of Manhattan.

on the leadership of the Tammany
ehieftain, Charles Y. Murphy, Hines

circulated with the intention Of dis
crediting the law.

IMPLICATES
TWO OTHER MEN
Leon Parks, Named By
Church, Is Alleged to
Have Confessed
CLARENCE WILDER
is BEING QUIZZED
Men, 1t Is Alleged, Were
to Divide After Sale OF
Auto

Chicago, Sept. l3,-Two confessions
obtained late last night and early To-
day were believed by the authorities
to clear up the mystery surrounding
the murders of B. j. Daugherty and
Carl A. Ausmus, automobile statesmen
Harvey w. Church, at whose nome
the men are alleged TO have been Killed
after Church had led them there To
receive payment for an automobile he
pretended he wished to purchase, late
last night confessed that he was aided
in committing the crimes by two ae-
completes and implicated Leon Parks,
employed in garage where he former
lv worked. and Clarence Wilder, an
other friend, as aeeomplices.
Parks, who had been taken into Gus
tody several days ago, when confronted
by Church, confessed, according TO the
police, telling the parts the three had
PLAYED in the two murders
Wilder, the third man alleged to be
involved in the crime, is in the custody
of the police to-day and is being ques-
toned to verify essential details as
told by his alleged confederates.
Parks confession for the first time
barred the real motive of the double
murder. The only reason given by
Church in his original confession was
that he wished to obtain possession OF
the $500 automobile for which he was
dealing.
Parks asserted the three had planned
to steal the car from Daugherty and
Ausmus, sell it and divide the profit.
Parks and Wilder, according TO Parks,
waited in the basement of Church s
home until Church brought Daugherty
there at the point of a gun after
Daugherty, Church and Ausmus had
driven to the Church home. Daugherty
was handcuffed, bound and then struck
over the head with baseball bat and
his throat cut Ausmus, who came to
look for Daugherty, suffered similar
fate. Parks, in his alleged confession,
blames Church with the actual Staying
of the two victims.
The three dug a home made grave
in Church's garage where they buried
Ausmus. They then ate supper and at
3 O'Clock the next morning Parks and
Church took Daugherty's body and
threw il into the Des PLANES river,
Parks said.
With Church already held to the
grand jury as the result of coroner's
inquest, speedy action in bringing the
case to trial was anticipated to-day.
Church's mother to-day was in a
critical condition here, having collapsed
when she learned of her sons confess
sion yesterday
