COUNCIL PLAN
 |S DEVELOPED
From Sundays Dsilyl

Plans for conducting the enlarged Boy Scout council of Yavapai and Mohave counties were developed here yesterday by C. J. Carlson, deputy regional scout executive for the Pa cific region, who arrived here Fri day night, and by Andrew R. Groe- mink, local scout executive.
 It IS planned that each town in the district will have a committee similar to the council organization. The presidents and scout commits sioners of these town committees will represent these organizations on the district council Each locality will have a court of honor, which will conduct scout tests, make awards and organize other committees re- quired.
 With the whole district to draw from, the annual scout encampment promises to be a real one this year, ill the opinion of the scout officials.
 Since the organization here of the Yavapai district council including the two counties, the first of last month, the district councils of the Globe Miami and the Douglas districts have been organized. These, like the Yavapai district council, have jurisdiction over the entire commun- ity proximate to the central towns.
 The Arizona plan, Executive Groenink said last night, is making splendid progress. 1t IS hoped to place all scouts under first class councf supervision before the end of the year.
 Leadership Conference
 Regional Executive Carlson will leave for Flagstaff Monday night, but before going will attend the sec ond session of the Prescott leader ship conference, which will be con 1ucted by the leadership training of which J. K. Wade is chairman. It is expected that num- per of council members will also at end. Entertainment will be furnish d by Troops Two and Four. The conference will be held tomorrow .vening at scout headquarters.

of the southern county, since the road principally benefits Phoenix summer vacationists.
 William (. Gillespie. who built the Gillespie dam, and who IS heavily interested in the Red Rock mining properties located in the belt of land soon to be fought for by Yavapai and Maricopa counties in the suit filed by Maricopa to change the inter-county boundary line, has agreed to put up 5000 to help re- construct the Camp Creek road. Manfred Cartwright and Tom Cav ness, ranchers of the district, are also contributing, and several of those owning summer homes on the re- creation are are doing likewise.
 The road will serve the Camp Creek recreation area and the terri tory beyond. At the area, access to and from Phoenix will be afforded the campers who go to Cave creek every Sunday in summer, numbering between 100 and 500 persons. From the point of view of the forest serv- ice, the advantage of the road is that it will reach the Ashdale ranger sta ton, and will go directly to the Cartwright ranch and within 10 miles of the Cavness ranch. It also goes within four miles of the Red Rock mines, which are being developed.

From Sundays DaiIy)

COMPETITION
 IN PAVING |S
 CHANGED ISSUE
Cement People who once were For Kirnball Bill Now Are Said to be Satisfied with Out come and Bill May Fail.
(From Fridays Daily) Capital Burer

PHOENIX. March 30.-With the approach of the fatal eleventh hour of legislative proceedings it is be- coming more and more evident to friends of competition in paving that the Kimball bill is in danger of be- ing slaughtered.
 Side-tracking of the bill to com mittee has given opportunity for the circulation of all sorts of reports and rumors, aimed to make the measure unpopular with the result that it now seems doubtful ii sui iicient votes can be mustered to put the bill through the senate with the emergency clause attached, even though it should be brought out from hiding in the committee
 That the bill is written in the in teres of certain shoddy type of paving is the most current form of propaganda against the measure, but just who is back of this line of talk is difficult to ascertain.
 One report has it that the cement interests, who at first were earnestly for competition, are now indifferent to the measure. As long as the bitulithic people were entrenched in the larger cities the cement people had ambitions of breaking into the city paving game. That was the condition which existed at the open ing of the session. But since that time two events have transpired which entirely alter the situation. First the contract for the construc- ton of 160 miles of highways in Maricopa county has been let to the Portland cement concrete people. Second, the city administration at Phoenix, which has been accused of favoritism to the so-called patented paving crowd, has been overthrown, with the general assumption that ce- ment will now get an inning
 With the largest county and city safe for cement, the cement people are said to be not nearly so anxious for competition as formerly.
 There IS nothing in this situation to deter the friends of competition from support of the Kimball bill. but because of the other influences, the outcome IS problematical.

SPRINGS
 OPENS IN APRIL
CFrom Fridays DaIly)

Verde Hot Springs, the famous re sort below Camp Verde, will be opened April Is with accommoda- tions for 25 guests. This announce ment was made yesterday by E. H. Meek, of Prescott, head of the com pany that owns the springs, and Walter Hopcraft, who is to be manager.
 Beds, provisions and other equip ment are now being purchased and will be freighted over the Arizona Power company's road from Mayer. This is at present the only way to reach Verde Hot Springs, but when the county highway from Camp Verde down to the Gila county line IS built the springs will be much more accessible than they are at present. At that time, which should not be more than few months off. the company will begin to make a real noise in the world. A biz sani- tarium with modern equipment is one of the plans.
 In the meantime, however, Verde Hot Springs will be a place where anybody can enjoy himself and re- gain health. Several cottages have been built and as many tent houses will be put up as are necessary.
 The waters of Verde Hot Springs are noted for their curative powers, being especially efficacious in rheu- matic affections.
 Walter Hopcraft, the manager, has had wide experience at hot springs resorts.

POISON BATTLE
 AGAINST PESTS
CFrom Sundays Dailyl


 The ceaseless battle against the prairie dog is being waged in north ern Arizona. Returning to Prescott this weekend from the north, L. l.. Laythe, of the rodent pest extermina- ton department, state biological sur vey, told Of the campaign begun by several livestock companies of the district, the Hudspeth Sheep com pany, the Aubrey Investment com pany, and the Chino Valley Land and Cattle company. Crews on the ranges Of these three outfits have been equipped with poison ammuni- ton, and are setting out with, as their motto, the slogan Death to prairie-dogs.'
 In addition, other sections of the district, including Yavapai county, are battling the pest which destroys range browse and ranch crops. Men have been instructed in the prepara ton of the strychnine-treated rolled barley which is used against the dogs that eat it, and with crews in their wake are spreading destruction over the northern Arizona ranges.
 In practically every town in the county poison bran has been dis tributed, and is being made use of. Laythe this morning is going to Phoenix to finish gopher trapping contest in which over HOO boys have participated. Some boys have gathered the pelts of as many as 400 gophers. Multiplied by HOO boys, this makes SOM gophers. says Laythe

PROTEST GUT
 IN RESERVES
Chamber of Commerce Acts to Arouse Arizona Delegation Against Proposed Drop in Ma tion's Life Insurance
(From Sundays paily)


 4 committee movement in congress to cut the appropriation for the train ing of reserve officers from S4,OO0, GOO to S250,000 was strongly protested by the military affairs committee of the chamber Of commerce in series of communications to the Arizona con gressional delegation yesterday.
 Major James (. Long, ranking re- serve officer in the northern part of the state, advised in an official mem orandum of the movement in con- gress, appeared before the chamber of commerce to present the case, and as a result, the following telegram was sent:
 Strongly protest cut in appropria- ton for pay of reserve officers. Re gard the reserve as national life in surance and urge you to do your ut most to prevent reduction of regular arnIy to point where adequate train ing cannot be given to reserve forces"
 In connection with the reserve mat ter, Major Long said
 Although it is not generally known, if the present plans of the war de- partment are allowed to mature, with in a year, or possibly less, the United States will have reserve force that will make any foreign power pause long time before thrusting upon us a war such as the last one.
 The United States, under the pres ent plans, is divided into nine corps areas. Each corps area will mobilize one division of the regular army, two divisions of National Guard, and three reserve divisions, the whole to be combined into three fielG armies, ap- proximately a million men. :.
 At the present time reserve offi- Ger must study constantly to keep up with the development of the service.  II he does not do this he will not long retain his commission. His work, study, and enjoyment cost him from $l00 to $250 per year, for which he receives no return at all. Neverthe less thousands of officers, all veter ans, throughout the country are doing this, in order that the knowledge gained at such frightful cost in the World war shall not be lost, but shall instead be transmitted to the younger men who will gradually replace them.
 However, 1t is necessary that the work of these officers be planned and supervised by officers of the regular establishment, and that they have at least fifteen days actual training each year. The proposed cut in the appro- priation from four million to two hundred fifty thousand will complete ly destroy the work already done, and will probably cause the resignation of :he majority of reserve officers from the service"
 Legion Takes Action
 Similar action to that of the cham Der of, commerce was taken Sunday by the local American Legion.

NEW ROAD AROUND
SHOSHONE POINT OPEN

Battle Mt. Scout: One of the
worst stretches on the Victory high
way was eliminated last week when
the new road around Shoshone Point
was completed under the direction
of Commissioner +. A. Fulkerson of
Eureka County. The old road over
Shoshone Point in several places had
a grade of over 20 per cent and was
considered dangerous, and that no
accident ever occurred on that GER
tain piece of road is most remark
able. Some months ago the Com
missioners of Eureka County and the
State Highway board secured from
the Southern Pacific Company the
right to use the old roadbed, or right
of way, of that company, and this is
the new stretch of road just COM
pleted and now ready for travel.

But Strong Static Conditions Prevail.
Ing Here Monday Night Pre-
vented Good Service

Right on the dot as per schedule
announced, Wallace Blood and Will
liam Heinz, in charge of the complete
radio outfit that is giving open air
radio concerts over the Lincoln High
way Route, arrived in Eureka satur-
day afternoon and that evening
placed their sedan auto containing
the radio receiving apparatus ON
Main street in front of the Court
house. An aerial was run from the
top of the flag pole on the Court
house to the top of the Eureka The
atre building, at a height of about
80 feet, and connection made with
the radio plant.
The work of tuning in to catch
the radio waves sent out from the
California broadcasting stations was
almost Immediately successful and
the station at Catalina Island, near
Los Angeles, was picked up and
came strong. Mr.. Blood stated that
this demonstrated that there were
no unfavorable radio conditions at
Eureka and that we should be able
to get good radio service here. He
stated that at Ely. the previous even
ing, he was unable to get any service
at all, and ascribed the probable
cause to be its location In a pocket
of surrounding hills, and that per-
haps its immense mineral deposits
also mitigated against receiving the
radio waves.
There was a big crowd present, ev-
cry one from near and far turning
out for a demonstration of this new
wonder OF the age, and although
band music and a highly cultivated
woman's voice could be distinctly
heard singing between the loud rasps
OF static, the operator was unable to
obtain any connected service that was
not marred by the strong static con-
ditions prevailing here that evening.
Trials continuing for about two hours
we're made in the hope Of obtaining
satisfactory service. and the Los An
geles station was also caught, but
the static conditions continued and
the effort to obtain anything worth
while was abandoned. 1t was stated
that the general static conditions dur
ing the warm Summer months were
against good radio service.
