George S. Foster, for two years engi- neer of Phoenix and later county engi- neer of Pima county, was appointed secretary of the Arizona Automotive Dealers association, at an executive session of that body held very recently.
 Opinion is unanimous among the automobile dealers of the state that a better man could not have been found to handle the work of the association throughout the state. The long engi- neering experience of the new secre- tary, particularly as applied to- high way construction, road costs and road legislation, fit him for the position ad- rnirably, and 1t is felt by all familiar with automotive affairs through out the state that the association is to be congratulated on securing the services of Foster
 From 1905 until 1914, MT. Foster served with the United States recla- nation service, and in that time, con structed several large dams and irri- gation projects along the Poudre river in Colorado. Coming to Phoenix from there, he served as city engineer here for two years. 1914 and 1915. MT. Eos ter left the engineering profession in 1916 to go with the Standard oil com pany and was stationed at Miami and later at Ajo, where he was made man. ager for that district. He remained at Ajo for several years and while there served on the highway commis- sion of Pima county.
 In 1919 he was appointed 10 the posi- ton of county engineer of Pima coun- ty, and the excellent road system O. that county is a result of his work there. He took the office with the in- tention of keeping it free from politics, and his influence there is even now felt. the men remaining in the office after his resignation carrying on the work where he left off.

 Local Distributor

Optimism for the new year-in cap ital letters-is the spirit of one local motor car merchant at least. The basic reasons for cheerfulness in the organization of Dulmage & Dunbar, Hudson dealers, are as follows:
 Half a million dollars will be spent during 1921 in United States highway improvements. A billion dollars must go into railroad repairs and extensions.
 One city alone requires twnety-five million dollars for homes. Housing conditions everywhere are inadequate.
 Hundreds of thousands of children are receiving only half day instruction because of insufficient school facili ties. New buildings-milliOns of dol lars worth-are q pressing need. Bridges, hospitals. water facilities,

THRIFT BONDS

There are about as many ways and

to wait until you can scrape together
q surplus hundred or two before eX-
changing your shekels for interest
bearing bonds. President Harding
has just given his sanction to Mr..
Melons plan for issuance of a new
series Of thrift bonds, or savings
certificates, to be unlimited in
total and to sell in small denomina-
lions ranging up to $1,000. AS des-
cribed the $50 denomination of the
bond issue will be sold to purchasers
at 500 and in five years time will be
paid off by the government at $o5.

will carry proportionate redemption
prices.
Few among us who work for a liv-
ing will find the saving of $50 too
much of struggle. Add to the case
of acquisition the universal desire to
Town" bonds, to be a real investor, no
matter on how small scale, and we
discover in the thrift bonds a sure
way to gain and maintain the interest
of the small salaried mass of our

BY WAY OF THE CANAL

The Panama Canal earned two and
three quarters millions over and
above expenses last year. Over elev-
en- and n half million tons of cargoes
passed through it, 4 third of which is
said to have, been carried in ships
competing for trade and so seeking
the shortest route.
OF these cargoes the United States
shipped 5,163,00O tons, Great Britain
3,73S,250 tons, Japan, 75S,6O0 tons.
The shipments of the greatest i'm
rortance- in consideration were those
going from our Atlantic seaboard to
the Pacific ports of South America,
while the route from our Pacific ports
to Europe and frtm our Atlantic
ports to the far East were next in
Importance.
The increase in tonnage passing
through the canal bespeaks the need
of another canal before many years
elapse, when it is possible that Mic
aragua may come in for her oppor-
tunity and the vision of the late Sen
ator Morgan be fulfilled.

part than we have. 1t was Europe
that created the conditions which make
the conference necessary, and it is Eu-
rope only that can take the first steps
which such a conference must recon-
mend in order to heal the world.
1t is true we suffer greatly in our
business by reason Of conditions which
an economic conference would cure.
But Europe suffers more than we do.
The European propagandists who want
America to take the initiative rely on
the pressure of increasing economic
distress among our people, which isn't
c very pleasant attitude to take, and
the answer is that we can stand it
longer than Europe can.
If Europe wants this economic con-
ference, the best way to promote it is,
first, to fix the German reparations,
for which Europe and not America is
responsible, and then stop keeping up
large armies and stop printing paper
money, both of which are steps that
Europe. and Europe only, can take.
After this exercise of self-hclp an eco
nomic conference would look more rca-
sonable to America.
