BOTH FACTIONS
WORK HARD IN
RECALL FIGHT
Registration Is Encourage
ing Campaign Leaders;
Discharged Firemen Be-
! gin Canvass of City.

With the recall election twelve
days away, the forces for and
against ousting three commissions
ers from office are rapidly perfect
ing their organizations and the in
dications are that the battle of bal
lots will be a fight from start to
flnish. Not in many years has
there been so much election
activity. Political leaders who had
expected to remain inactive in mu-
niclpal affairs, have found it nee
essary to put on the harness once
again and throw themselves into
the scrap.
A complete registration is being
OBTAINED. The striking feature of
the registration thus far has been
the voluntary registration by both
men and women. Committees rep
resenting the discharged firemen
began yesterday to make a house
to house canvass to determine the
sentiment among the voters. Indi-
cations We're, however, that the
election will be decided by the ST.
lent vote.
I'VE are saving wood and have
nothing to say" declared Louis A.
McRae, chairman of the citizens
committee of one hundred last
night. We are constantly receiving
voluntary assurances of support
from sources which are a surprise
to us. Many people, ordinarily
strongly in favor of the union
cause, have stated to me that they
are firmly against the recall of the
commission because they believe
that there is no principle Of union
ism involved"

UNIVERSITY HEIGHTS
NOT TO INCORPORATE
AS A VILLAGE NOW

Following an opinion handed
down yesterday by the attorney
generals office at Santa Fe re-
garding the school system which
would be necessary in case Univer-
'sity Heights incorporated as viii
lage, Col. d. X. b. Sellers an
nounced last night that the petit
ton now before the commissioners
asking for authority to incorporate
that section as a village would be
withdrawn.
Colonel Sellers asked the ator-
ney generals office for a ruling on
whether the village, in case it was
incorporated would still be able
to operate under the Albuquerque
school system.
The opinion. given by A. NJ. Ed
wards, assistant attorney general,
was to the effect that in case of
incorporation, the village would be
required to operate and maintain
it's own school system. The school
on University Heights is now in
cluded in the Albuquerque system
and Colonel Sellers stated last
hight that, for the present. the res
idents Of that section did not feel
that the advantages of incorpora-
ton as a village would outbalance
the advantage of the Albuquerque
school system, which they are now
enjoying.

ELIMINATE B0RES0ME

MOVIES, EDISON PLAN
fRr The Assoclnted rresn.l

New York, May 7.--Substitution
of motion pictures for books in tho
nations elementary schools would
in twenty years bring about an ad-
vancement Of ten centuries in. civ
iliZation, Thomas A. Edison said
today.
The scientist declared present
primary school systems were poor
and unattractive to children. The
remedy" he said. is to eliminate
boresome books and teach with
motion pictures. This is a more
vivid, more compelling method of
holding a child's attention"
Mr.. Edison's criticism of pri-
mary schools was given to qualify
q previous statement that after a
series of examinations of college
men, applicants for positions in his
plant, he had found them amaZ-
ingly ignorant. The fault, he said,
was not in the colleges, nor the
men; their early education had
been poor.

A CABARET PERFORMER
Try The Associated Press. J

Berlin May THE former
Archduke Leopold Ferdinand OF
Austria, who is now appearing
nightly as a performer in Berlin
cabaret, was prevented by the Ber-
lin police from wearing an ad-
miraFs uniform and is compelled
to wear the clothing of a private
soldier.
Like many other members of
once powerful royal families. who
were endorsed and bankrupted by
the war, he was forced to work for
n living, his total income from his
Austrian properties now amount
ing to only 5000 kronen. or ABOUT
81, monthly.
So when he appeared for a job
as cabaret entertainer sketch
was written so that he could play
the part of a prince who has lallen
from high estate.
The Berlin public. accustomed
since the war to former royal per-
sonaees in abject financial circum-
stances, still was not habituated 10
seeing an archduke on the BOARDS
The first night audience heard the
archduke through without ap-
plause. Then, in the painful, EN-
barrased silence, a man rose by ms
table and loudly clapped his HANDS

STATE NORMAL BOARD
DR.. BOYD DECLARES

Rumors from Las Vegas yester-
day that he would resign from the
toard of regerJs of the New Mex g..
leo normal university were denied
last night by DR. David r. BoYd,
former president of the state uni
ycrsity, upon his return to the city.

BARELAS BRIDGE
PETITION To CD
To Gov. MECHEM|
Residents West of River
Decide At Mass Meeting
to Ask State for Relief
From Closing Order.

Fifteen representative residents
oil the district west 4of Bareias
bridge win start tomorrow morn
ing securing signatures of proper
ty owners in Atrisco and the valley
section across the river from Al
buQuerque, to petitions directed to
Governor Merit c. Mechem, ask
ing relief from the hardship
caused by the closing Barelas
bridge to vehicle traffic. This de-
cision was reached at the second
mass meeting, which was held last
night at the Ranches de Atrisco
school house. ..#.
Great privation and hardship are
being forced upon residents west
of the river through the closing of
the bridge, it was asserted at the
meeting last night. Dairymen are
among the chief sufferers, being
forced to make a forty or fifty
mile drive to deliver their milk in
Albuquerque and return to then
ranches. Many persons along the
river settlements are out of coal
and gasoline and are experiencing
trouble in securing these necessi-
ties on account of the long detouI
to Isleta and back in order to
reach Albuquerque.
Court action calculated to brins
some sort of relief was first
thought of by the representative
residents at the mass meeting last
night, but it was decided that, as
the repairing of the bridge was UNI
der the supervision of the state en-
gineer's department. it would be
more fitting TO appeal directly tc
the governor for aid.
The feeling was expressed at the
meeting last night that every resi-
dent of the ten-mile square west
of the bridge area would be anN-
ious to sign the petition, asking
relief from the state department.
