LEGION I OLD 5. I l GO SLOW
 BY UN|ON|STS
(Assoclated Dress Night wlrel


 INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 3.-Al- though refusing to condemn the American Legion because of alleged strike-breaking activities of some of its members, the convention of the United Mine Workers of America today adopted a resolu- ton committee report calling on legion officials to put their house in order"
 The action came after several delegates had appealed vehemently for the convention to go on record in qualified condemnation of the legion.
 The committee report was among those made on more than 100 reso- lutions sent to the convention for consideration by local unions throughout the country and which had been before the committee for consideration since the opening of the convention. Most of the reso- lutions went into the discard.

JEROME UNION DEMURRER HELD
 NEW COMP LIANT
Judge Sweeney Gives State Un- till Tomorrow to Amend Affi- davits on Which the Contempt
 Charge in Injunction Is Based

Sustaining the demurrer of the Je- rome Union Stage Line. Inc, to the affidavits of the state in the con- tempt proceedings that constitute the latest phase of the stage line war, Superior Judge John J. Sweeney yes terday morning gave the states at torneys until tomorrow to amend their affidavits in order to cure, if possible the alleged defect of the charges. Lack of direct proof, the affidavits having been sworn to on information and belief constituted the weakness Of the states affidavits, the court held.
 At the same time, the court inti- mated that iri a case where it might be in the mind Of the court to inn pose heavy penalty, even going so far as to execute an order against the property of the corporation for an alleged offense, the court was de- termined to make very certain of its jurisdiction, and would insist upon the proof to the limit.
 Both sides of the controversy over the information and belief" phase of the affidavits, held that they had au- thorities supporting their position, but the court took the position it must be very sure Contempt as charged in the present case is called constructive contempt" and is not within the cognizance of the court
 Anderson, Gale & Nilsson, special counsel for the state, indicated they would amend their proceedings and return to court as specified in order to have the controversy settled as soon as possible.
 Numerous witnesses are involved and they are being held in readiness for the beginning of the hearing on its merits.

M 'CARTHY IN PHONE TAXES
 OFF|CE; GOES
 ON JOB TO-DAY

Joe Mccarthy was city engineer of Jerome until about 10 o'clock last night.
 Then Mr. Mccarthy stopped be- ing city. engineer of Jerome and became county highway engineer over the telephone.
 His name was the one selected from the list of about a score, cut down by ballot to four by the highway commission at its night meeting-W. J. Jameson, McCar- thy, Olmsted & Gillelen and Barker of Pima county.
 After the final ballot, Chairman Bob Moore of the commission called Mccarthy on the telephone, offered him the job at $5,OOO year and Mccarthy said he would report for duty this morning.
 Joseph Mccarthy is 40 years old, married, widely travelled and, ac- cording to the opinion of the high way commission, qualified as an engineer in not one but three or four lines of work. He has built railroads in Australia, highways in Asia, projects in England and has labored in the vinyard of almost the entire United States. He. came to Jerome from Nevada. His posi- ton at Jerome has been that of city and consulting engineer. He in spected and reported on the Se- dona road following the published charges that the project was not well started and he was one of the two engineers who reported favor ably on the Granite Dells section of the Prescott Jerome road after J. s. Douglas had charged that road was costing three times as much as it should. MT. Mccarthy did not concur in this view.
 Offers to do the engineering work of the county highway com mission ranged from S4,0O0 to $6,- 900. The job as awarded carried exactly the same salary as had been paid heretofore-$5,0O0. -
 Bidders for the work came from Arkansas, Missouri, Utah, Ten nessee, Texas, California and Ari- Zcna.
 Conditions in the commissions engineering department will neces- sitate considerable study by the new engineer to farniliarize himself with the job, and there is an indi- cation that he will not be rushed about it. The hope was expressed by the commission at its meeting last night that the work could be got under way without much more delay. R. E. Tally of the United Verde and George Kingdom of the U. V. K, were visitors at the com mission meeting along with others and there was a frank discussion of the problems.

ENGINEER CONTRACT TO BE APPEALED TO
 THE SUPREME COURT

As far as any court or other de- cision is concerned, the highway commission was told yesterday, Olm- sted & Gillelen are possessors of contract to supervise the construction of about $1,500,0O0 worth of Yavapai county roads, The new commissions signature to any other contract or agreement, or its employment of any other engineers, will merely mark the beginning of the real battle at law.
 These considerations were urged by Robert A. McMurchie, counsel for the engineers in the recent Hesla suit arguments, not, he said, as threat. but merely in order to inform the commission of the thoughts in the minds of the proponents of the con tract.
 The better way out was indicated by LeRoy Anderson, counsel for the majority members of the late com mission, when he said the present commission should reaffirm the con tract, limiting it to two years, the term in office of the commissioners. That action, he explained, would wipe clean the slate and prevent further possible delays in road build ing, delays that would be more dis astrous" than those already suffered.
 Chairman R. E. Moore of the board and others indicated their in clination to have engineering service without a contract. They asked Frank Gillelen, who was present at the session, to indicate what he would be willing to do on a per diem or yearly salary basis. Mir. Gillelen said that without the certainty of a con tract, and lacking the assurance of it as to the exact duties involved. he would be inclined to charge more than the amount specified.
 It was agreed by the commission CTS that the only difficulty about the contract was that it mentioned $60,- 900 as lump sum, and thereby frightened the scary public into the belief that there must be graft" and waste" and that this fright was without foundation. inasmuch as en- gineering costs, if disbursed in drib- lets, would undoubtedly exceed $60,- GOO. The commission seemed to lean to the attitude that although 1t would be impossible to please every body, and there must necessarily be howls and protests, the best way would be, if possible, avoid the pains and penalties of litigation.
 Consider Applications
 After hours of discussion, joined in by attorneys and outsiders and members, the commission began the examination of between 25 and 30 ap- plications for the position of high way commission engineer. These in vitations to employ, came from wide ly dispersed points and were of a wide variety of character. Some were in the nature of bids. offering services for specific sums of money. usually on the basis of yearly sti- pendiary emolument.
 At 4:3O the commission adjourned until 7:30 for further study of the file of applications. It has satisfied itself there was no bar to the em- ployment of individuals not resident of the state, so all of the applications were under consideration. including several from engineers of the "alien" kind

NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-New York plunged into a sea of baseball argu- ment today and at the same time di- vided itself for rooters' war when the Yankees and Giants meet in world series combat at the Polo Grounds Wednesday.
 On the subwayS, the elevated, the busses and in surface cars and hotel lcbbies, everywhere fans were debat- ing the respective merits of the var ious players. Whether the speed and resourcefulness of the Giants can overcome the punching power of the Yankees is one of the big points at issue Yankee rooters expect big things of Babe Ruth.
 Meanwhile the offices of the op- posing clubs were making final prepa- ration for the post-season classic. At the Giants headquarters all the tick cts had been reserved. it was an nounced, and there talk centered about McGraw's pitching selection for the opening game.
 Hug Rests His Nerves
 Yankee headquarters was filled with baseball players and last-minute ticket seekers Miller Huggins, man ager, went into seclusion, leaving word that he wanted to give his nerves a rest and do some figuring on the dope.
 Fans from all parts of the country are pouring into the city and hotel managers are counting on filling their accommodations The seating ca pacity of the Polo Grounds is given as 380O0 but ambitious ushers always have been able to find seats in the ajsles and on the rails for at least B. coo more and there is standing room for many more.
 The record attendance at series, 236,000, undoubtedly will be broken if the series. goes ito six or more games.

season. And such alleged humor and
cheap jokes get on cur nerves.
Pick up a Sunday paper printed in
any big city and read the gush about
the costume Miss Jones wore to the
theatre. Read about Miss Smiths
apricot chiffon taffeta with silver lace
and morning glories, or of Mrs. Rob-
inson and her gown of lavendar net
and pink baby-ribbon and you'll want
to step out in the back yard and
throw a fit. The absurd things about
the big city paper is that it picks out
some narrow circle which calls itself
the -Four Hundred" gives it the
name Society" and ignores the hon
est, hard working people of the place
unless they get into the police court.
When you read that Farmer Smith
has painted his barn you learn that
something has been done to improve
the community and put it on better
basis. But when you read how the
-Four Hundred" are parading around
in party clothes or pajamas-and it
doesn't make much difference with a
lot CT them-you read of something
that is of no benefit to anyone on
earth On the other hand, you get a
pretty fair idea of what makes for
Bolsheyism in this country. But it's
funny old world we're living in, and
possibly it will never roll around to
the time when the big city dailies re-
alize that for laughing purposes
nothing fills the bill so well as the
mess of slush they are turning out.

OF serving them is creamed or cooked
and served in a white sauce. We tire
of having any food served in the same
way time after time, so the following
recipes may be suggestive of different
ways of serving this wholesome vege-
table:
Carrot Glace, With cream.-Scrape
the carrots, cut in halves or quarters.
according to size, then cut in short
pieces an inch and quarter in length.
Cover with cold water and cook Is
minutes, then drain and rinse and add
boiling water; fer each pint of water
add half teaspoonful of salt, a table,
spoonful of sugar and two tablespoon
fuls of butter; cook until the carrots
are tender and the water is reduced to
a strip. Stir the carrots in this strip
until well glazed, then add hot cream
to cover let simmer for moment and
serve at once.
Cream of Carrot soup.-Cook until
tender pint of diced carrots, drain
and mash; put through ricer. Scald
a quart of milk with a slice of onion
and pinch of nutmeg; remove the
onion after Is minutes, add the carrot
pulp, salt, sugar and few da, les of
cayenne. Melt a tablespoonful of but
ter in a saucepan, add a tablespoonful
Of -four and cook until smooth; add by
thinning with little of the milk to the
hot soup. Cook until well blended,
stirring occasionally. Serve hot with
crOutOnS.
Drowned Carrots.-Take Uniform
sized carrots, scrape and cut in halves.
Parboil for Is minutes, then. arrange
around a roast of mutton and haste
with the fat to brown. Serve around
the roast when it is served on the
platter.
There are many meat sauces and
soups which would lack in flavor If it
were not for carrot, even in small
quantities, which gives most appetite
ing flavor
