 MAK|NCP PURCHASES

Advice intended to assist the buy ing public has been given out by City Sealer Clarence Ice, who is making a thorough canvass of the city to test measuring apparatus used by local merchants. MT. Ice makes the fol- lowing suggestions concerning things to watch for when making purchases:
 Don't forget to look for the official seal Or tag upon all weighing and measuring apparatus.
 Don't make purchases except by a known unit of weight or measure ment. Buying by the piece" or load or other indefinite term Is often costly.
 Don't buy commodities in contain CTS unless the net weight or quantity of the contents is plainly stated on the wrapper. label or contained.
 Don't buy ice in any other manner than by actual weight.
 Don't buy wood in any other man ner than by the cord or fractional part thereof.
 Don't buy coal in any other man ner than by weight, and insist upon the accompanying delivery ticket.
 Don't let the butcher or merchant sell you heavy wrapping paper. sack
  purchased. Insist upon the full net weight as provided by law.
 Don't patronize the dealer who uses badly battered and dented measures, This means short measurement.
 Don't buy over scales that are not accurate in balance. Learn to read the varying types of scales with which you come in contact.
 Don't be deceived by the outward size of the container; it may contain less in quantity than container ol smaller size.
 Don't permit the use of A spring balance with a sliding face. They are too well adapted to the practice of fraud
 See that the beam of the scale is not weighted with any foreign mat ter to be weighed in with the article purchased. Don't patronize scale that IS not placed level on the counter. They seldom weigh accurately when 1n- clined at any angle.
 Avoid weights which show signs oi heavy rust or wear or which are bad iy nicked or broken.

On bright and wellnigh perfect Arizona spring day, on a grassy sward where spreading palms had to serve for sturdy oaks, yesterday at Tempe was presented May Day pa geant that had been transported bod fly from Merrie Old England. For the time, Sherwood Forest was brought to Arizona, and within it there disported nymphs and fairies and elves, sprites of most attractive sort flowers that arose as bright faced children, shepherdeSSes who each bore veritable black-nosed lambs, that appeared to "baa" in uni son, milkmaids rarely attractive, maidens who sang sylvan ditties in maidens who danced divinely. There were girls, girls and still more girls, girls clad daintily and girls extremely good to look upon, girls of infantile and chubby charm, jass IT. .n the Kindergarten, and girls who in anoth- CT month will receive their diplomas ofgraduation. Eachgrou had It's own distinctiveness of costume. giving a kaleidoscopic panorama of shifting and harmonizing color. Many there were who danced barefooted, led by Spring." a winsome wisp of grace whose woven paces cast a spell of delight on the beholders. There were folk dances of ancient Britain. There was a playlet that brought out Robin Hood and Allan a Dale, Maid Ma Uan, the Bishop and the withered suitor and, as well, band of the merriest men in Lincoln green who ever threatened with the long bow: and, again, there was veritable pre- sentation of the immortal combat be- twixt St. George and the Dragon--a delightful greeny dragon that bel 
 squirmingly and shudderingly.
 Of course there had to be herald. with tabard and trumpet. and a jes- ter and a hobby horse and King Winter, who came only to be buried in flowers. and a group of smutty chimney sweeps, with a dance that was all their own.
 Incidentally, all this happened on the front campus, of the Normal school within a square of thousands of spectators brought from ever. town in the valley. The performers. 800 in number, embraced practically every student of the Normal and every pupil of the training schools. Especially notable were the duskv ! faces of scores of little ones of Latin parentage, alive with happiness that came throuoh participation in dances very foreign to their race, a feature that may De given permanence by the camera man who industriously l cranked on the sidelines.
 There should be especial mention of the singing of Donald van Patten whose voice reached well under dfffi- cult conditions. and of the solos of 1 Winnie Dalzell, while Beatrice Schu- feldt was delight as woodland danseuse. The stage manager was Miss Sallie Davis Hayden of the training school while the training Is said to have been especially to the | credit of Miss Parker. The staging was with snap and precision rarely seen outside of the professional zone and the scenes were placed with @ speed that detracted not at all from their effectiveness.
 Of course, there was a program. Ii follows:

(Republlcan A. P. Leased wlrel


 WASHINGTON, May 3-Immediate congressional action to check the in- roads of German foreign trade in the United States was urged today by Secretary Hoover before the house ways and means committee.
 A revived German commerce, he said, was dy' ing certain American lines out of business.
 He declared for a protective tariff s'of a large. order,'' and spoke favor ably of the contemplated change in policy as to the basis of assessing import duties. The committee is American standard of valuation to supplant the system of levying tariff on the value of imports in the land of production.
 :. Such a plan, MT. Hoover said, ap- peared to be the only solution to the problem of meeting sales by Germany and other foreign countries, whose currency is badly depreeiated. < Germany continues the policy of indirectly subsidizing her industries Mir. Hoover said. adding that on the basis of reports by federal agents the subsidy amounted to around 5C per cent of the production costs.
 The methods pursued in subsidiz- ing the industrials of. Germany, ac- cording to Mir Hoover, include a heavy contribution to the railroads and other public utilities. expenses for services, he said. which 'justls should be assessed through channels not governmental"
 Many subsidies exist, he added, al 1 of which have an indirect effect or the selling price of German commo- dities abroad.
 The Germans accomplish the pro gram by the issue of unlimited paper currency, MT. Hoover said. He ex- l pressed the belief. however, that thls 1 policy would lead to inevitable dis l aster." He made it plain that while 1 subsidies were continued the German l industrial nation was placed solidly i in a position for cheap production l He cited steel prices quoted by Ger. man firms in neutral markets as s1. l ton below American prices. Othe 1 lines of American trade were suffer i ing likewise outside of the Unite, i States, he said
 The committee also heard argu ments for and against the valuation change. Members of the committe'
 evinced evidence of being by n'
 means agreed on the question.

IMMIGRATION BILL PASSES IN SENATE;
 0NE NEGATIVE VOTE
IRepublican A. P. Leased wire]


 WASHINGTON, May 3.-The sem ate today passed the emergency inn migration bill fixing admission of aliens to three per cent of each na- tionality resident in the United States in 1910. The bill is effective for fourteen months beginning Tiff teen days after enactment. The vote was IS to l, Senator Reed, democrat, Missouri, opposing the measure. AS sent to conference, the measure would allow no exemption for any aliens in excess of there per cent limitation and those entering under treaties of agreements. Provisions to exempt those coming to escape relig- ious or political persecution from the three per cent limitation were con- tained in the bill as passed by the house. but were stricken out by the senate immigration committee when 1t amended the house bill and substi- tuted the original senate measure.
 Senator Johnson, republican, Cali fornia, sought to have this provision re- inserted by offering an amend ment from the floor, but was de- feated 15 to 60. Sharp clashes oc- cured during debate on the amend ment. opposing senators charging its adoption would open the doors to hundreds of thousands.
 Senator Johnson said it was of fered to preserve very dear and sentimental precedent
 T cannot find it in my heart" he said, Ito fear the man who leaves his native land to worship God or exer- else his political rights. I would not of course, permit the man to enter who seeks to overthrow the govern ment by force or violence, but would preserve that beacon light oi liberty for those who want to wor- ship as they see fit. or exercise po- litical rights denied them at home

UNIONS OPTIMISTIC


 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May Sop timism over the progress of strikes to enforce demands for the 44-hour week in job and book printing offices was expressed by International Typo graphical union officials today fol- lowing compilation of reports from subordinate unions.
 We have reports that 240 subordi- nate unions have signed on the A hour week basis" said w. Hays, secretary treasurer. Those signed include one-half of our members who work in the book and job printing branch of the printing industry.
 Strike reports received from 125 local unions showed 4500 men are out, MT. Hays said. Many reports are yet to be received, he said. The whole number affected by the strike will be a few less than 10000. he predicted.

And ought to be jailed for the

If had my way I'd distribute

And make 'em divide for the
good Of their health!
And then us poor fellows would

The way the affairs of this coun-

But the oracle greatly regretted
his speech
When an oil well placed riches

And each increase in taxes he
views with a frown
Whenever improvements are made
in the town.
The corner stone conclaves no

But the rights Of the down-trod-

And though he's petitioned from

Shows no disposition his wealth
