code prohibiting officers and employees
OF the government from having any
interest in government property or
contracts.
THE facts developed by the attor-
ney general led to the conclusion that
these contracts had been entered into
as result of a conspiracy on the part
of certain former temporary officers
of the army to obtain possession of
these military supplies"
The individuals involved in the ac-
tIOn of the President, Secretary OF
War Weeks and Attorney General
Daugherty, are former Col. George B.
Goetz of Ransom, w. Va; former
Maj. Joseph c. Byron OF Hagerstown,
Nd; former Capt. AZel +. Cochrane.
and former Capt. Henry G. Benke, all
of whom held emergency commissions
during the war.
In July, 1920, the four men I'm ques-
ton, 1t is charged, prevented the sales
to the public. In September. 1920, the
United States Harness company was
tract between the company and the
War department, which turned over
all the surplus harness and saddles TO
the company, was signed.
Prior TO this an option upon this
surplus had been given to the COM
rany, and following its execution
GOetz resigned his commission and
signed the contract with the War de-
partment as president Of the United
States Harness company. His associ-
"tes were officers of the company.

in other years are to be given a real vacation.
 Whatever novelty is noted in this direction is seen in a few models of kid shoes that show black lowers with tan or dark brown uppers, but for the most part the one-toned shoes will lead the procession.
 Tan and black shoes will get about fifty-fifty split in prominence. The tan shoes are to be shown in many shades, ranging from the saffron to dark chocolate. Cordovan, however, will be the prevailing shade. Coco brown, mahogany, russet and Havana brown also will be in the limelight.
 In black shoes the gun metal finish is in front with glossier and vici fin- ishes running second.
 As in other years narrow English custom lasts and the medium ball shaped toes will be favored by young CT men, but the wider lasts will con- tinue in favor with the older men, who prefer to sacrifice style to comfort.
 Wing tips or brogue will be looked upon with contented eyes. The brogue, which won its popularity when our soldiers went to Europe, seems to have become an institution with us. They will be worn in both high shoes and oxfords, very similar to the styles of | last year.

HIM HAVE GOOD FACE"

President Harding's smile has won him a handsome Indian blanket. Nina Carrothers Leaning, matron of an In- dian school at Polacca, Arizona, tells the story.
 An Indian woman from the noun tains saw President Harding's picture in traders store. "Him look good; him have good face; him honest man." was her comment. The trader told her he was to be the next "big white chief at Washington" He said his name was Harding. At the woman's request the trader wrote the name Harding" on slip of paper.
 In few days the Indian woman returned to the traders store and un- folded a beautiful blanket that she had made. The trader immediately offered to buy it and asked her, "How much ?" Me no sell," she answered. "Me make it for Harding. See him name" In the blanket, beautiful in color and design, was woven the name, Harding" "Send to him for me-" she said, as she turned to go. Him good man-him good white chief. ."-Chandler Arizonan.

summer is toward the pin stripes, pen cil stripes and small checks. There is more of an air of refinement than ever. And the grade of workmanship is of higher order.
 Up to last year when factories were working at top speed workmanship was given secondary consideration, but with the decreased demand more time has been devoted in turning out better shirts. This spring will see grade of shirt tailoring that approach es the custom made brand as nearly as is possible for large quantity pro duction.
 If Mir. Man wants high grade shirt that is second cousin to the silk shirt he will turn to the fibre silk shirt. Never before has such progress been made in beautifying of fibre silks as is evidenced in the new lines. The mak- CTS have taken such pains in the weav- ing of the cloth and in the making that it takes a close examination to dis tinguish them from the real thing.
 Included in the spring selection are many novelty weaves that will appeal in beauty of pattern, richness of ma terial, durability and price modera- tion.
 Cotton shirts are certain to sell strong this spring, especially the high est grades. Fine madras cords, cham brays, oxfords, cheviots, poplins and percales still continue the vogue. Among the novelties will be Scotch madras of highly mercerized effect.
 With many of these shirts will go separate collars, some hard, but the great majority of the soft kind. Elan nel shirts also will be worn by dis

eliminating dressers, especially those made from the French and English se- lected cloths. Such shirts for early spring and sport wear are considered smart.
 Neckwear prices, too, have taken a tumble and meE need no longer pay from $4 to $8 to get the better grades. Prices are quite moderate, with excel lent qualities from $1 to $3.50.
 Some of the finest types of imported grenadines, especially those hand-loom silks from Italy, will sell around $3.50 instead of $6-the price last spring. Stripes-not the striking kind of oth- CT years-but the more subdued vari- ety, will predominate. The better grades will be shown in dark colors and heather mixtures.
 There will be few changes in hosi- cry designs and materials. Men who believed that silk hose was the thing for distinctive dress now will turn to the fine cassimeres, camel hair and i'm ported worsteds. They come in small two tones, heather mixtures and solid colors.
 Fine silk accordions and embroid- cred effects will not be shown as ex- tensively as in former years, but clocks of self or contrasting colors will be considered in good taste. Col ors in plain silk and lisle will remain very much like last spring.
 Soft collars will find a ready sale again this season. There probably will be more hard collars worn than heretofore, due to the fact that they will be lower in style and more com fortable for hot weather.
The Coconino sun., 1921-03-18

SPRING, 1921, will find nearly all o lines of haberdashery back to a sane price basis. The S25 silk shirt of year ago, when the cost of raw silk reached it's peak through an inflated market, probably will never be seen again. The $S neckwear is a relic of other days,
 For several years previous to 1920 silk shirts were worn for all occasions social as well as business. But with prohibitive prices of last spring the business man was forced to go back to the madras or fibre silk shirt. Today the price of the average silk shirt is where the fibre silk shirt was year ago.
 When the wave of economy hit the American consumer last autumn and the Japanese silk market went to the bow VOWS, the manufacturer who was left high and dry with lot of high priced silk shirts, could do nothing else but "get out from under" This start ed a downward crash of prices which has reached rock bottom this spring. And once more the range of good silk shirts will be from S7.50 to SIP at the better stores.
 Of course there will be quality of silk shirts, made of the almost trans parent tub silk at prices as low as $4 and s4.50, which year ago sold for $8 to BIO. But what we mean by the bet ter silk shirts are those of baby broad cloth and Jersey knits-the kind that gives the buyer the best service and with proper and cautious laundering will outwear a madras shirt.
 Instead of the broad stripes of other years the tendency for spring and

Our development has been made pos
sible because thousands Of eastern in
vestors have been ready to loan us
money on real estate. They have
purchased our real estate mortgag-
es in large blocks. Our administra-
ton during recent years has, in SUBJ
stance, given these foreign investors
to understand that they were in fact
Shylocks living off the sweat of the
farmers brows. The administration
has gone further. They have passed
such outrageous laws, and have ad-
vocated such radical ideas, that east
ern capital has grown timid Of COM
ing here for fear the next step might
be even confscation of property, or
the declaration Of a moratorium, or
any other fantastic idea that might
light in the brain of radical con-
troll.
We may argue until we are black
in the face as to the merits and de-
merits of the various phases of the
league control. But we all must adj
nit that since North Dakota has
"gone bolshevik" eastern capital has
rapidly withdrawn from North Dako-
ia. Any banker will tell you that it
is a common thing for him to receive
letters from eastern moaeyed men
who have been buying his real estate
mortgages informing him that they
are through in North Dakota, and on
ly want to get their money out as
fast as possible. Yet, we are all
begging our banks for loans to tide
US over the hard times.
The fact is that the league admin
istration has turned millions of dol
lars from our state, and we are not
now able to borrow the money we
need to properly operate. Even the
most radical Lacquer cannot doubt
these facts. Of course, we can rail
to our hearts content against these
financial men who won't deal with US
any more. But that doesn't get us
the money.
A return to sanity in government
in North Dakota will mean the re-
sumption of placing foreign money
in this state by the million. How
about it, Mr.. Farmer, do we want to
do business with the out side world
again, or do we want to continue our
financial hunger strike? In the bal
lot box is where you must decide.
