Buying Truck and Hose

0dyiu9 tTuSH dno 1oSe
 YUMA-Taking measures to mini mize the possibilities of a repetition of Sundays fire when over $300,000 worth of property in the heart of the city was damaged and one life was lost, the city authorities have adver tised for bids for another fire truck and 1000 feet of hose.
 Necessary formalities will delay the purchase of the truck for a few weeks but immediately upon its ar rival it, will be stationed at some strategic point in the downtown bus mess district and. if plans now under way can be carried out, paid em- ployes will be secured to take care of the city's fire trucks.-Sun.
 Left Hot Stove
 NOGALES-Sheriff J. D. Skaggs and Deputy Talley went out in the Grahams the first of the week and brought in two Mexicans. Joe San dowsey and Francisco Helgagh, who are charged with burglarizing the mining camp of J. A. Jackson. Every earthly possession of MT. Jackson was taken from his camp Sunday while he was away except stove. and he says the stove was red-hot or the miscreants would evidently have taken it also.
 The stolen goods, in the main. were food, clothing, blankets and other accessories necessary to a camping outfit.-Herald.

struction by means of the funds re- leased by congress.
 Miss Tarbeu says that unemploy- nent could be considerably reduced if industry would establish more efficient system of hiring and firing.
 The short sighted system by which a factory owner has a thousand mn working for him in time of pros- perity, and at the first sign of drop fires several hundred of them with out warning, is too costly to every body concerned Workmen store up resentment and become aggressive. The employer complains that labor is so unstable that he cannot count on 1t when he really needs it. And stab ility is necessary if there is to be any sound progress in industry.
 Miss Tarbell believesethat employ CTS are beginning to find that they must adopt more scientific methods of dealing with employees.
 T remember one factory" she said, where 1000 men received notice on Saturday that they would not be needed Monday. They had refus-1 to think that a slump was coming, and the despair they showed was ter rible. They had no warning, but they had no redress.
 An intelligent handling of a simi- l lar situation occurred in a big Chi cago plant. The employees and off cials here realized that in a few months they would have to shut | down. The company is organized on what is known as the shop repre- | sentation plan. They said. we want | the whole body of working people to know that things are slowing up and | to consider what can be done if the | factory has to close. When a man | goes out we will not hire a new one | Then they advised the men to get other work if they could.
 "The factory soon began to work i only four days week, then three. | then two, and finally they clos ed down for a month. But the spirit of the men was differen. from that shown in plants where summary dis missals were made. They had had time to plan and save"
 Employment Management Getting the individual employer to l use scientific methods of handling his employees is largely a matter of education, and can only be accom-
 plished gradually, it is realized.
 The most practical scheme which ! the conference has urged upon the country for quick results is to estab- fish organizat tions in the states and
 cities to study the local labor condi-
 tions. Some of these organizations
 have established public employment
 bureaus. Jobless men are registered
 and connected with such work as the
 city and employees of labor can find
 for them.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 15- That the presidents unemployment conferences is not aver and that it's committees will continue to work as long as the unemployment situation remains serious was pointed out by Ida Tarbell, a delegate to the con- ference, the other day.
 Thirteen regional directors are at work in different sections of the country" Miss Tarbell explained, showing communities how to meet their problem of jobless men. The committee has to report to MT. Hoo- yer regularly. So you see we are not a dead organization.
 When we came to Washington and did not at once arrange to put all the unemployed to work, We were accused of passing the buck. But what could 60-odd persons do to feed 100000? We sent out word that it is the business of every community to study its local conditions and do something and that we would help them. That is what we are still do- ing"
 States and cities are still being urged to speed up construction and repair work. It is estimated that D. 900 900 men could be at work on the building program that is needed by the country because or the nouSlnS shortage. Construction is held back because perhaps materials will be cheaper later
 The conference holds that it is better economy to have work done now, whether building costs go up or down, and put men to work, than to leave their families destitute through unemployment, and have to provide charity for them.
 Road building, sewer work, clean ing up of factories and homes are giving men work in communities that are operating with the conference delegates. Even the small matter oi paying a jobless man to rake the

Straws show which way the wind blows.
 It may be well now and then to make resume of the why think the wind blows toward the Millennium and not toward chaos.
 The redemption of the world depends upon its abil- ty get together and upon whether those forces which make for human unity and cooperation tougher and stronger than the forces that make toward destruction
 The world is one. The same laws hold among spirits that hold in matter And in the physical world we that there is a continued triumph of life death
 This means triumph of organization over disor- ganzation For life is merely principle which organ izes and death principle which disntegrates.
 Among the things, therefore, that incline us to be- eve that the world will eventually succeed in achieving unity and itself and not go further into disnty and

ONE CASE LOST

A taxpayer. whose income arose from his vocation lawyer, made a trip to Canada in line with his profession and had gotten through with the case half another (which MT. Volstead would not have approved). His wife, however, it's presence in the house. Being conscientious person, she could only conclude that he law breaker and her mind uneasy. In proportion as the case dwindled, her hopes
 Her worst fears were confirmed when one day the bell rang and the maid announced that agent was at the door. With presence of mind she and the maid hastened to dispose of the forbidden stuff while the agent waited without. When the remaining bottles had been empted down the drain, she proceeded to confront the the door cool, calm and defiant.

The Conference

While expected much of the Industrial Con- ference expectations have been exceeded both in the attendance and in the intense interest mani fested throughout sessions There can course. be measurement of the accomplishments of the conference. They not concrete but concreteness is assured by the harmony and earnestness of the delegates and their resolution for the working to- gether of the various industries for the upbuildng of all of them
 The men who came together are the most influ- ential men of their several communities and their influence will be for the cooperation of their con munities with another for the good.
 They know, too, of another's needs and perpexties that they better able to give and receive assistance.
 We trust and believe that the work of the conference will be reflected in many ways in the extraordinary session of the legislature should be called.
 It expected and natural outcome of the conference that permanent organization should be formed to perpetuate the work that has been happily begun.

What pr. Rieketts Said

Phoenix, Ariz. Dec. 1e, 1921. To the Editor of the Phoenix Re-
 publican,
 Phoenix, Ariz.
 Dear Sir:
 I was misquoted as to my remarks On railroad freight rates in your is- sue of this morning. In my speech I closely followed my manuscript, which reads as follows:
 We are confronted with two seri- ous difficulties. One. and the less important one, Is excessive freight rates We must remember that it is perfectly natural that the railways should wish to maintain as high rates as possible because Of their share holders and employees, but if the rates are maintained it will meaE a cur tailment of copper output. A great deal of ore that should be profitable will become unprofitabIe and the ton mage of profitable tres in sight will be decreased. I believe that it is up tc the shippers to show the railroads that rates should be materially re- duced and I believe they will be re- duced."
 In justice to myself and in the spirit of harmony with which we are holding our meeting I request you most respectfully to publish this let ter in full.
 Yours truly.

Ida Tarbell On Unemployment

 There is much suffering and un- employment is still acute according to Miss Tarbell. Some men have been out of work. except for pickup jobs, for year, and many have been unable to find even temporary work all summer
 People do not realize that wide
 spread unemployment is a disease of
 the industrial and social system"
 Miss Tarben explained. ''We have
 advanced beyond the stage where we
 regard an epidemic of typhoid as fate and take no steps to safeguard our
 selves against disease. But we all

 Local ProblemS

Shepherd College Loses Football came

Shepherd College sent her football
team 10 ST. James last SATURDAY, and
lost BY the score Of 40 to 0. Our team
was completely putclassed, their op-
ponents being heavier men with much
more experience. The ST. James team
was we'll coached, uncorking some won
derfully good plays that took our boys
wholly by surprise. Captain Reluhart
for the victors was easily the star of
the game. scoring six touchdowns and
kicking four out OF the six goals. The
game opened with Shepherd College
receiving the ball. They lost it on
downs. ST. James gained two first
downs on successive line plunges, and
then scored touchdown on fake play
through the left tackle ST. James
kicked TO Shepherd College. This was
an excellent bit Of strategy Instead
Of the regular kickoff man making the
kick, the guard from the right came
in and made a short kick to the left
end, who carried the ball within strik-
ing distance Of the goal Then on
a line plunge and forward pass they
crossed the line again. Requhart kick
ed goal. Shepherd College kicked to
ST. James, and recovered on tumble
Knode made forty-yard run around
left end, losing the ball on being tack
led. ST. James recovered and return
ed to S. C.'s thirty-yard line. Requhart
got loose in the last quarter and made
a Hfty-fve yard run, but was tackled
by Hiett, who also made splendid
run to get his man. The referee be-
came confused on several occasions,
making the spectators somewhat peeved
towards him. The home team de-
serves plenty Of credit for the manner
in which they acquitted themselves
against such odds. Saturday they 60
