Imperial Potentate Garetson resides in Ia coma, Wash, but comes to the Hot Springs Ceremonial from a confer ence in Washington, D. c. The joint ceremonial at Hot Springs was ar ranged for the purpose of acquaint- ing members of the Imperial Council with the advantages of Hot Springs as a location for the crippled chil- drens' hospital, which is to be erected by the Shrine as soon as a location Is decided upon. The Imperial Coun- cil has S1,25O,OOO with which to erect buildings. u is expected that the entire southwest will support Hot Springs for the hospital location. Twelve sister temples in Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Mississippi, Texas and Oklahoma have been invited to participate in the joint ceremonial, bringing with them their bands and patrols. The first to accept the invi- tation is Al Chymia Temple of Mem phis, which will make the trip on a special train. Other special trains already arranged for come from Hell ena. Fl Dorado and Fort Smith Should other temples decide to par ticipate, they will also travel by special train. Eight members of the imperial divan have accepted invita- tions to the joint ceremonial Head quarters in Hot Springs will be main tained at the Eastman Hotel and the ceremonial will be held at Oaklawn race tracks.

AMENDMENT TANGLE WILL
 BE SOLVED BY COURTS
tBv Clio Harper)

The Arkansas Bar Association is circulating the referendum petitions for the amendment proposed by Gov ernor McRae and it is expected that the requisite number of signatures will be secured in short time.
 The petition will then be submitted to Secretary of State Ira c. Hopper, and it will be his next move. He has not indicated what he will do, but whatever action he takes it is certain the question wiH be taken into the courts. Attorney General Utley will advise him not to certify the local legislation amendment which Gov. McRae seeks to submit on the ground that the governor acted without au thority in vetoing the personal tax amendment adopted by the legisla- ture. On the other hand Governor McRae and his advisers will insist upon the acceptance of the local leg islation amendment.
 Should the secretary of state re- fuse to certify out the local legisla tion proposal, the friends of the measure will undoubtedly seek to mandamus him and compel him to accept the amendment. Should he, on the other hand, accept this amend ment, the friends of the personal tax amendment would undoubtedly seek to enjoin him and to compel him to accept their proposition. So it ap- pears that whatever he does, he will be made party to an interesting con- troversy in the courts
 The test will be strictly of friend ly nature and will be free from rancor and personality. It happens to be- one of the questions which have not been specifically settled by the Ark ansas court General Utley claims to have the weight of authority on his side to the effect that a constitu- tional amendment proposed by leg islative resolution is not subject toI executive veto. This has been stated as a principle by some of the highest courts of the country, although Gov. McRae is confident that he can estab- fish his authority.
 Incidentally, some of our most care ful observers of things political, ex press doubt of either amendment be- ing ratified by the people It is cer tain that there would have to be a very considerable campaign of educa- tion conducted to induce the people to voluntarily vote upon themselves an additional tax or to surrender their rights to secure relief through local legislation.
 The most far-seeing statesmen of Arkansas agree that the vexatious problems of taxation are not to be solved by a piecemeal, desultory and spasmodic tinkering with the consti- tution The time must come before the state can make the progress all good citizens wish to see, that a new constitution must be adopted in ac- cordance with modern ideas and re- quirements. Many have pronounced the document drafted in 1918 most desirable one, admitting at the same time the unfortunate conditions under which it was submitted When an- other constitution is drafted, and this must be within the next five or pos sibly ten years, the 1918 draft will
