YAQUIS OUT OF BOUNDS.
 THUNDER AND MURDER
From Wednesdav,s Dnilvl


 NOGALES, Jan. 1S.-A band of Yaqui Indians has resumed the war gath and today killed three Mexican cowboys and footed a ranch at Cruz Piedras eight miles south of Quay mas, according to official advices reaching the border this evening. Yaquis yesterday footed the town tof Cocorit and La Dura, also south iof Guaymas.
 Both towns are in the Yaqui val ley, long claimed by the Indians as their rightful lromes. No loss of life was reported in connection with the footing of the towns.
 U. s. Consul Francis Dyer, of No gales, Sonora, said tonight it ap- peared not to be a general tribal outbreak but that a band of trouble some young men was out of con trol. Reports of a Yaqui outbreak in the vicinity of Bacum, Espcranza, dltd SdlCillNf III lHC uCdI | OI lltt Yaqui valley, were verified tonight by government officials, mining men and farmers having interests in that locality.
 They had advices regarding the footing of Cocorit and La Dura by bands and the terrorizing of the pop ulation Mexican officials stated the outbreak had been contemplated and that President Obregon had sent a number of military commanders ia miliar with the Yaqui situation to Sonora in the past few days. They said the troublesome situation was confined to what was known as the "Yaqui belt" of Sonora and said the problem could be handled by troops already ih the field. Consul Dyer said no Americans had been mo- tested, according to his information.

DEMAND A SHOW OF
 INTEREST IN LEGION
(From satnrdav,s Dailvl

 In line with a decision of the ex- ecutive committee of the American Legion of this city, letters are being lsent today to the veterans of the world war residents of the city ask ing whether or not they want le- zion organization in Prescott.
 In these letters it is made plain that those officers of the organiza- ton do not expect to keep up an organization unsupported by the ex- service men of the town.
 Membership books have been sent to the legion representatives at the hospital, with the word that now is the time for the men there to indi- cate whether they wish to become members of the legion.
 Only the business side is presented, the value i'll dollars and service to the veterans, and to the community, and the state being the sole appeal whereon show of interest and sup port is based.
 It is rumored that failing to get membership which will insure an adequate representation of the work which is expected of the local post by the state and national legion headquarters, the entire situation will be put up to those headquarters for their advice and further action. Com mander Roberts takes the position that Prescott and its citizenship, whether soldier or not, cannot long be content to receive money from Ithe American Legion of Ohio in Iorder to carry on needed work at the hospital at Whipple Barracks. the sanatoriums in the city, and Iamong the disabled veterans resident in the community,
 In his opinion, in view of the fact that patients are being transferred frequently from Whipple Barracks to Camp Kearney and other hos pitfalls, that men are passing through this city to hospitals in other places, and that in a recent statement of John D. Long, supervisor of the twelfth district of the public health service that there are above a thou sand tubercular ex-scrvice men in California, Nevada and Arizona, without the hospitals and there is hospital room for them all, it is to the advantage of this city to see that every possible service be afforded these convalescent here.
 It has been the policy of Roberts as commander to do the work from a Prescott standpoint' Ii is his con tention that if the work is put up to the state or national organization of the legion, that whoever is sent here to carry out the national program for disqualification, may not take into account elements that may make for the lasting growth and benefit of the city.

 Word was received here yesterday by local forest officials that Ramsey Patterson, government hunter, last week killed four lions in the vicinity of Horse mountain, west of Walnut Grove Three of the animals were killed on the 14th, and the other on the 17th. The carcasscs of several yearlings evidently killed by the lions, were found. There IS .consid- erable discussion among cattlemen concerning a proposition to allow the hunters to accept a bonus for the animals they kill The stock men are willing to pay the bonus. This proposition, whose carriage will, it is felt, stimulate the ridding of the ranges of predatory animals, was discussed favorably at the meeting of the Yavapai.

GAS RATE AID PLANNED
 IN THE LEGISLATURE
From Thursdays Daily) Journal-Miner Capital Bureau

PHOENIX, Jan 19.-Feeling that there is nothing the state can do to lower the cost of gas and electrical power until a substantial reduction is made in the price of fuel oil, and that this reduction can best be secured through federal legislation, Dave Johnson, representing the state corp oration commission, has taken the first step to place the seriousness of the situation before congress.
 To this end there was introduced in the legislature today at Mir. John sons suggestion memorial to con gress urging it to take such action as may be found necessary to bring proper, just and expeditions relief to the situation, and thus remove the barriers to progress and development now confronting Arizona and her sister states.
 In the event that the memorial is passed by the Arizona legislature, copies will be sent to the legislature of other states in session, and they will be asked to join in the move ment.
 Among other things the memorial calls attention to the fact that there are ten cities in Arizona which use gas manufactured from fuel oil, the price of which represents 60 per cent of the cost of production. As result the increased cost of fuel oil has made 1t necessary to advance the rates for gas, and these rates are now fast reaching prohibitive level.
 Not only are city dwellcrs affect ed, but the agricultural districts as well as the mining industry. Pe- trolcum products, notably tops" are used for pump irrigation and for the manufacture of power used i'll min ing, it is pointed out, and unless a reduction can be secured the gold miniug interests of this state as wei as commercial activities arc menaccd with extinction.
 During the last few months the corporation commission has been obliged to permit an advance in the gas rates of. Phoenix, Douglas and Tempe, and applications from the como3I'cs supplying gas at Yuma and other points are pending. There is also under consideration an appli- cation from all of the public utility concerns of the state asking for a larger allowance for depreciation and d larger allowable return on invest meut, and this is based ill part on the advancing costs of fuel oil.

BACK TO LAND MOVE
 FEDERAL BOARD AIM
nIrom Wcdncsday's DaiIll

A new "back-to-thc-land move mcnt on the part of the federal board of vocational education, for thc benefit of disabled veterans who are studying under the board al various places, is gaining increasing attention throughout Arizona, it was stated here yesterday by w. M. Roberts, commander of the Ernest Love post of the American Legion. The federal board is taking steps whereby its trainees may be placed on land taken over by the board, under course of vocational cduca- ton, with all opportunity to acquire the land, and consequent living, for themselves.
 Charles Beaver, a vocation student lat Whipple Barracks, who is lcav- ing for Tucson to benefit by the Farm and Home week under the University of Arizona, and who is studying tractor engineering, is but one of several local cX-service men who will benefit by the new plans.
 Fred Roland, head of the Phoenix office of the federal board, states that the first land to be taken over in the Salt River valley is the Edna ranch, located three and half miles from Phoenix, on the Yuma road.
 The plans contemplate taking over 100000 acres of land to be worked by disabled cx-service men. For the purpose of securing this oppor- tunity 10 its trainccs, the board en- tered into a contract with the Me Dewitt corporation, whereby land owned by the corporation will be worked by the trajnees under the di- rcction of the board This land in cludes four Imperial valley ranches in California, for which the Me Dewitt people have contracted One of these is between Brawlcy and Imperial The other three, ranches oi the British-American company, are located, one near Holtville, an other near Fl Ccntro, and the third rear Caicxico
 The former service men who opc- rate the ranches will be credited with every hour they put in, and this credit will be applied to the purchase of the land The men meanwhile will be maintained by an allowance of $lG0 a month from the govern mcnt. It is believed that a man will be able to get himself an equity of 50 per cent in 20 acres within two years.
 Asked last night whether any ac- ton in this matter was being taken by the federal vocational board at Whipplc Barracks. Sidney Rawlings, head of the board, replied that none had so far been taken Several men from Whipplc. however, Rawlings stated, have benefited, and will benc- it by the new plan, the first move of which in this state is that taken n the Salt River valley.
