Truax Battle Ended

BISBEE, Dec. 19.-The decision of the United States supreme court handed down today ended a legal battle started in this city five years ago. The litigation generally known as the "Truax case,' started in April, 1916, when the superior court of Co., chise county refused to enjoin rep resentatives of a labor organization from picketing a restaurant owned by William Truax. \
 The case was then appealed to the supreme court of Arizona, and later by writ of error to the United States supreme court, to test the constitu- tionality of paragraph 1464 of the re- vised statutes of Arizona, commonly known as the Gompers anti-injunc- ton law
 Counsel for Truax claimed that this statute was a glaring example oi class legislation and that it violated the constitution of the United States by taking from some ciizens right freely accorded to others, thus deny ing them equal protection of the law.

JEROME SPEED SELIG|NAN ROAD
 WILL BE BULL I

Improvement of a short-line road Ito Seligman through the Williamson valley, Simmons and Walnut creek, over which Jerome time" may be made by motorists, will be under taken by the board of supervisors, it was announced yesterday at the con clusion of the regular meeting of the board. The road will be improved ito provide an outlet and a market for developed and undeveloped farm ing districts in those places it will traverse, and to give a rapid-travel highway to Seligman that will not necessitate the longer route by way of Ash Fork
 "The highway commission has pro- vided for construction of a highway to Ash Fork" Chairman Midgley said yesterday; but there is one road they have forgot That is the Williamson Valley route to Seligman The road from Ash Fork to Seligman doesn't tap productive territory. We are planning to build a road to Selig- man through the Williamson valley via Simmons and Walnut creek that will tap productive farming in these places and permit travellers to make the same time they would make over  the present highway to Jerome"
 Provision for future agricultural development of the Williamson val ley, Simmons and Walnut creek dis tricts will be made by construction of the road, as well as a market route to Prescott for farmers already there.
 There are thousands of acres of tillable soil in these districts" Chair man Midgley pointed out; and put ting road through there will give an incentive for them to be de- veloped.
 "We are simply taking advantage of natural resources" he added. "Na- ture laid that road out there, and we are taking her advice. It's natural resources road, with all the material we need right there"
 ! The road will be about 65 miles long, and it will be possible, accord 1 ing to the supervisors plans, to travel over it in 90 days from now.

PICKETING AT BISBEE WAS
 ILLEGAL, SUPREME COURT
 RULES IN THE TRUAX CASE
Associated Press Night wirela

Associated Press Night Wire) s
 WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 1o.-
 States in the exercise of their police power have no authority through legislative action to prohibit courts from cnjoining picketing in labor disputes, the supreme court held to- day in a decision involving an act of Arizona.
 In the opinion, on which the court divided , to 4, it was held the lower courts erred in refusing to consider an application for an injunction which was sought to restrain certain methods of picketing. Chief Justice Taft delivered the opinion. Justices Homes, Pitney and Brandeis sepa- rately stated dissenting views, and Justice Clarke joined in the opinion announced by Pitney.
 The legislative power of state can only be exerted in subordination to the fundamental principles of right and justice which the guarantee d due process in the fourteenth is intended to preserve, declared the chief justice, "and that a purely arbitrary or capricious ex- ercise of that power, whereby a wrongful and highly injurious invas- ion of property rights, as here, is sanctioned and the owners of all real remedy, is wholly at variance with these principles" He said the illegality of the means used in the present case to drive GUS !omers away was without doubt and 
 "This makes this plan an unlawful the decision continued.
 The chief justice asserted that holding the Arizona law invalid :. would not necessitate holding void section 20 of the Clayton act, relat- ng to immunity -oi labor organiza- ions from certain laws prohibiting in restraint of com nerce. The construction put upon .he Arizona law by the Arizona su- Dreme court makes that law and the federal statute as different fin mean ing as if they were in wholly diff ferent language" he said.

ECONOMY, PLEA
 IF ROADS FUR CONTRACT PLAN
Associated Press Night wire)

CHICAGO, Dec. 19. - Economy and efficiency were the only motives behind adoption of the contract sys- tenn Of car repair work established by the Indiana Harbor Belt railroad, George Hannauer, vice-president and general manager of the road, told the railroad labor board today in the opening of the test on the right O. the carriers to farm out" work to contractors not under jurisdiction of the board Twelve cases of a similar nature affecting nine railroads and about 100000 workers are before the board.
 MT Hannauer was witness for both sides in the controversy. Thru testimony by the general manager, Frank P. Walsh, attorney for the railroad unions who filed the com plaint, attempted to establish that the contract system was a fraud to dodge provisions Of the transporta- tior' act. Through the same witness, s. C. Murray, counsel for the rail road, sought to establish the legality of the system.
 Through the testimony of MT. Hannauer, which took up practically all day, Walsh attempted to estab fish as the basis for his attack that the contractors were mere tools of the railroad in its alleged violation of the transportation act, and that foremen now employed by the con tractors were formerly employees of the railroad and were still working under the railroads orders.
 With the completion of testimony, arguments on the case were set for tomorrow.

The thirty four American fertilizer
companies. which contracted to take

DAHL LACKING IN POWER.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DUBLIN. December 80 - Although
no compromise between the opponents
and advocates of the Anglo-ir1sh
treaty in the dali eireann has yet
been attained, future plans designed
to avoid wrecking the agreement are
being considered.
1t is generally recognized now that
Eamonn De Valera was right in stat
ing that the dali has no power 70
ratify the treaty. The treaty Itself
prescribes the mode of ratification TO
be by the members elected to sit in
the house of commons of Southern
ireland. which was constituted under
the home rule act Of 1920, but which
actually never met and which, except
for the purpose of ratifying the
treaty, proably never will meet.
The dali includes some members
from northern Ireland and excludes
four elected to the southern parlia-
ment from Trinity College. The idea
is that after the dali approves of
the treaty. which it is expected to
do by a comparatively small majority.
the ratifying body named in the
treaty shall be summoned. The dali
members who are dissatisfied with
the treaty need not attend this
gathering. it is pointed out, and thus
their colleagues, plus the Trinity
members. might ratify the document
unanimously.
