ACADEMY STUDENTS
 RECEIVE DIPLOMAS

Speaking 10 the graduating class of the Arizona academy last night, Elder A. R. Sandborn, president of the conference and school board.- said: ''The past is forever gone be- yolnd your reach The future you can overtake only as it becomes the pres ent; SO. regardless of our regrets for the past and yearnings for the fu- ture, we have only the present at our command. Therefore you should have one objective, one purpose and ideal. and then apply the words of our text from the Apostle Paul, This one thing I do.'
 Mir. Sandborn set before the class tfie object for which the Arizona asadelny was brought into existence, tO prepare young men and women for service in the work of God. To the congregation that filled the large camp meeting tent he said: .We as a. denomination feel that we have a 1 definite mission to carry definite message to the world prior to the coming of Christ, which we believe will be in this generation. and to the 1 end of this accomplishment we have developed an educational system that embraces all the grades from the kindergarten to the finished college course Our academy graduates now bid farewell to Arizona academy for brief respite from class work. and some of them, if not all. will take UT their studies at the beginning of the next term at Pacific Unii,n college and we hope that from fhere they will finish to go to some foreign fiel5 department of the work here 1T America

The first few copies of The Nor
 mon Settlement in Arizona, by James H. McCIintocl<. state historian. have been received from the printer.
 This new work is considered a notable contribution to southwestern literature in that it covers a field hitherto almost untouched. While the Mormons have been great colonizers and have been the best of agricul- tur ssts, settling and developing many of the valleys of the southwest and west, little has been told of their work Nothing has been printed heretofore that sought in any wise to give the full story of their industry.
 The purview of the new book is very much broader than its title in- dicates. There is entertaining de- scription of the advent of the Nor mons of their coming to the south
 west, back in 1851, at the old Mexi- can pueblo of Tubac, and in Califor- nia where a shipload of people of the denomination landed i'll 1916. of the no-able settlement at San Ber- Fnardinc, California, of the wonderful march of the Mormon battalion through southern Arizona and the in l fluence of that movement upon the l future history of the southwest De cidedly new to the average reader | WILL Dt, tf1t CAIOiiiCit OA iAAS EOAAiE- ment of what once was northwestern 1 Arizona in the Virgin and Muddy river valleys, a section later taken from Arizona by Nevada.

TARIFF ACT MAY PLACE 2O CE N I
 DUTY 0N COTTON
Adequate Protection For Long Staple Industry Expected By Local Man Who Made Trip To Washington

That the general tariff bill will contain a provision for a duty of at least 20 cents a pound on long staple cotton is the belief of Frank R. Stewart. who with F. A. Reid of the Wnter Users association lately vis- fled Washington in the interest of the cotton growing industry of the southwest.
 Messrs. Stewart and Reid visited Chairman Fordney of the committee on ways and means of the house of representatives and were most cor diallv received. They were referred by MT. Fordney to Representative Green of Illinois, chairman of the sub- -comnaittee which has that sched- UIe especially in charge.
 MT. Green said that he had given eonsiderable attention to that matter but he would be pleased to hear any additional views the visitors had to offer coiicerning the tariff on long staple cotton. He had gone over the brief prspared by Dwight B. Heard on his recent visit to Washington be- fore the emergency tariff bill was paseed. Mr. Stewart said that SC covered the whole situation that there Vas little to do but to emphasize tht v1aws of MT. Heard.
 rho need of the duty, MT. Stewar pointed out, was made plain by tn, growth Of imports as shown by som. recently gathered figures which dis elosed that from 191,075 bales O Egyptian cotton brought in the coun fry in 1918 there were 4S5,00O bale Dot year.

this country. which had increased with the growth of the automobile tire industry.
 MT. Green asked him if he thought it was proper that the people of 1lli- nois and the rest of the country should be taxed on automobile tires for the benefit of the prospective long staple cotton growing area Of the southwest
 q do," replied MT. Stewart. we of the southwest are taxed, ana properly taxed. by the tariff on hard wheat which you raise and which we need in making flour. We raise in onr country a soft wheat, an excel lent wheat, but it cannot be used in making flour without an admixture of hard wheat which we cannot raise"
 aWell. anyhow, that's something new" replied Mr. Green; that's a reason
 Mr. Stewart further compared the long staple cotton industry in this country with that of the tin making industry in McKinley's time- Many did not believe that that could be made a successful industry in this country in competition with countries where it was already we'll l-estapnshed. Yet the wisdom and insistence of PTeSluenL MCnliiity III oAASA N-Af9 2 protection was quicDly justified. The cotton industry, said MT. stewart, was a much more promising one than the tin industry was at that time Concerning the extension of pay ments on the Roosevelt project and the postponing of the payments now due for two years, Mir Stewart said | that was not a difficult thing to se-
 cure. Secretary Fall, being of the west and familiar with the conditions under the Roosevelt project. which are the same as all of the nationa
 reclamation projects. at once favored the extension.
 Asked as to the penalty of one pel cent a month as now provided. Mir Fall replied. Forget it." That was ;
 bridge which he said had not ye been reache1. When the proper tim came. if Congressional action wa necessary. it would be secured. H
 added that the proposed penalty wa extortion and it was not the policy 0
 the government to practice extortiol upon it's people.
