The finance committee today con-

Democrats Attack BAL.
The democratic assault on the meas
ure already has been launched. Sen
atoms Walsh OF Massachusetts, and
Gerry of Rhode Island. with the ap-
proval of Senators Simmons of North
Carolina and Reed of Missouri, other
minority members Of the finance COM
mittee. issued statement last night
attacking the bill as indefensible and
giving notice that the democrats
would concentrate all their efforts in
an endeavor to change features which
they deemed most unfair and un-
just"
! Senators Walsh and Gerry already
have proposed amendments which
would provide for reductions in the
normal income tax rates on individual
incomes of $4,000 or less and for a
graduated tax of from 10 to 20 per
cent on incomes of corporations in
lieu of the proposed nat Is per cent
rate.
The senators declare in their state
ment that under the republican pro-
posal every corporation. whether max
ing excess profits or not. would have
fits net income.
Those corporations which are GER
tain of being able to make excess
profits as soon as business revives,
says the statement, are to be imme-
diately and directly benefited. while
of being obliged to struggle for long
period of time before any reasonable
profits are to be realized are to have
their tax burdens increased.
I'VE cannot accept the theory Of the
republican majority that tustifics this
rank discrimination against the
struggling, small prof1t-making cor
was exacted even during the wal
when the government was exertine
every possible means to raise revenue
as is now proposed by the republican
majority In desperation to meet the
loss Of revenue to the government by
abolishing of the excess profits tax, a
loss of $780, 100000, or one-seventh OF
the entire tax to be raised under the
proposed revenue bill"
Discussing the proposal to reduce
the normal income tax on individuals
having $4,000 or less year, the
statement says this class of taxpayers
constitutes the great investment
class. the unorganized middle class
the home-building class. indeed, the
bone and sinew' of the country" and
that yet the republican program has
practically eliminated from considera-
ton this element of our population
except for small additional exemptions
in the lower surtax brackets and for
the heads of families with less than
S., 900 income"

connection with the buying and sell ing policies of the company. As ex- pressed by one of the officials. the Arizona Packing company is interest ed in home products not only because 1t is a producer of this kind of com modities, but because it has held con sistently to policy of buying every thing needful around the plant in Ari- zona and from Arizona producers. Arizona residents are employed exclu- sively. and every effort is made to keep every cent disbursed by the company in this state. The slogan of the company is The dollars you spend at home return to you" and the company is taking the lead in proving the truth of this assertion
 Largest Industry In State
 Summing up. the householder and the general user of meats and meat products must consider the following facts in connection with the Arizona Packing company:
 The company's plant can handle as much business at capacity as any plant on the Pacific coast. It is the largest manufacturing industry in the state. The product is equal to and in many cases superior to that of eastern packers. The prices are i lower. Its purchases are made, as far as possible. in this state.
 Therefore. 1t is the part of thu people of the state. as expressed by an official of the company, to realize manent and real benefit 10 the farm.
Arizona republican., 1921-06-26

drawback. which certainly affects it's quality, is increased by the necessity of re-handling it in transit. variation in temperatures and other considera tions which do not affect the home product.
 The high place that has already been won for the fresh meats of the company has been equalled by that given by the public to it's meat prod ucts. Cactus and Apache" hams and bacon and lard. and Desert Bloom" compound, have already be- come household words throughout the state, and with the inauguration of an educational campaign to bring a knowledge of these products to every householder. the demand for them has exceeded all expectations.
 Free Demonstrations

Pres. E. A. Toured Is. State Pioneer
 In Meat Business

E. A. "Ed- sTovrea, president of the Arizona Packing company, IS net only Arizona's pioneer in the meat business, but he is one of the best known men Of the state In all southern Arizona, indeed, he is a public figure because of his active life, his large business ven lures, and the number of enter prises with which he has been con nected.
 Tovrea came to Arizona from Illinois about 45 years ago as freiqhter. Soon after his arrival in the state he started to prospect in and near the Grand Canyon, devotinq much of his time to pam hing for gold in the Colorado river at the bottom of the canyon He then took up freighting again, hauling grain and supplies to Je- rome from Phoenix.
 He first went into the meat bus mess at Giia Bend, supplying those at the Wolfley dam, now the Gill iispie dam, and getting his first insight into those activities which, years afterward, were to culminate in the formation of the Arizona Packing company. After leaving Gils Bend, Tovrea came to Phoenix where he entered the meat and cattle business. Soon he opened a branch in Jerome, and later in Risbee, from which city he started operations in Cananea, Sonora, Old Mexico, and also in Douglas, Lowell, Warren, Nosaies, Tucson and Deming, N. M.
 Tovrea has extensive mining in- terests in Cochise county, and large cattle and ranch interests below the international line. He makes his home in Phoenix and Bisbee. Of his two sons, P. E, "Phil" Tovrea, is one of the of ficials of the Arizona Packing company here, and the other, Har- ry R. Tovrea, is branch house manager at Bisbee.

-4LleHTNlNe SURGEON

LONDON-A lightning surgeon" whose rapid methods save many lives. is at work in one of the great London hospitals. according to the London Daily Express.
 His time for normal case of ap pendicitis. for instance. is SIX min utes from start to finish of the opera ton, as against the fifteen minutes reckoned good time in the profess sion generally. This implies an enormous diminution of the ordinary risks run by the subject. and a cor responding increase in the chances of recovery. Scarcely less advan- tageous is the lessening of the strain of suspense which must inevitably be endured by assistants. nurses and others present.
 These considerations apply with even more force in the case of opera tions protracted. ordinarily. to the extreme limits of the patients en- durance, lasting perhaps two to two and half hours. Seconds saved in every manipulation of these more in- tricate cases amount in the aggre- gate to total which represents the difference between life and death.

county, and paid for with money thas remains right at the place of produc tion. All the sheep and lambs usec by the company come also from the Salt River valley In the matter of hogs alone does the company make outside purchases, and this only be- cause the Salt River valley, and even the state as whole, does not pro duce enough hogs of the proper kinos to satisfy the demands of the pack ing establishment
 Most Efficient Method
 The finished product is distributec by the company over the entire state by the latest and most efficient means-refrigerato cars and flee, of large and fast motor trucks. Spe- cial attention has been given to this phase of the industry by the officials of the company, e13 it has been de- veloped to a point where it is not ex- ceIled by the distribution methods oa any other packing companies in the country.
 Of chief interest, especially to the purchaser. is the product itself The meats and meat products of the Arr zona Packing company are rated sec ond to none in the United States. With this excellence of quality is, the other pertinent and important fac' that prices for the local product are lower all the way down the line than the prices for outside products.

Headed by k. A. Tovrea, the pioneer packing house man of Arizona, and under the immediate direction Of men who have gained sure knowl- edge of the packing industry by long experience. the Arizona Packing company. in the few months in which 1t has been in operation, has been successful from the very beginning. Taking into consideration the facy that it's products were new, that the public had to be educated concerning them. and that they were usurping a place which had been held by eastern interests for many years this suc- cess is little less than phenomenal, but a brief examination of the com pany and it's products proves that the place it has won in the hearts of the users of meats and meat products has been gained by the simple and sure expedients of a modern plant, up-to- the-minute methods of manufactur- ing and distributing, and a firm de- termination to put forth the best possible product
 Started Months Ago
 The Arizona Packing company started operations about nine months ago. It's plant, newly constructed, is the largest establishment of its kfne between Fort Worth and Los Angeles, and is capable of handling 300 cattle. 1000 sheep and 1000 hogs day u is equipped with the most moderl, types of labor-saving machinery, anc it has evolved a selling and distribu,- ing system equal to that of any O, the big packing companies of the

onstration may be gauged from the fact that although the demonstration was held several weeks ago not a penny has been asked for by any one of the hundreds who made purchases at that time. These demonstrations are being held in the towns near Phoenix, and it is the policy of the company to continue them through out the state.
 The officers of the company are E. A. Tovrea, president; John T. Hughes. vice president. and William | M. Smith, secretary treasurer. F.. A. Tovrea, John T. Hughes, George c. i Baker. P. E. Tovrea and G. F. Cooke form the board of directors. P. E. i Tovrea, son of E. A Tovrea, and l George c.

Tovrea has been connected with it since his boyhood and Baker has had Y years experi- ence gained with Swift and company
 All of the stock of the company is held by Arizona residents. This fact
