The general manager of the National
Automobile Chamber of Commerce looks
upon the motor car as creator of
wealth and builder of empire Just as i'm
portant today as the railroads were
when they first made possible the open
ing of vast new areas of land and new
human enterprises.
1t is estimated that 100000 persons
are employed directly or indirectly be-
cause of the automobile and truck. They
are engaged in the making of cars and
accessories, in garage work, as chauf-
feurs, as statesmen and in every conceiv-
able branch of the industry itself. They
are employed in other industries. as is
illustrated by the fact that 30 per cent
of the aluminium supply. four per cent of
the annual production of iron and steel
20 per cent of tin, 16 per cent of the
copper output and 80 per cent of plate
glass manufacture are used in the max
ing of motor cars and motor trucks.
Farming has been benefited so have
transportation and distribution High
ways are being improved to facilitate
motor travel as they never would have
been for the sake of helping out the long
suffering horse Housing pressure in
c0ngested CITIES is being relieved. 1t is
estimated that there are now hundreds
of thousands of suburban homes which
depend for their easy access to neighbor-
ing cities on the automobile and motor
truck.
Motorists themselves may complain
against crowded thoroughfares pedes-
trians may bewail their confinement to
sidewalks and duly assigned street cross
ings. But the fact remains that both are
ginning much in comfort, pleasure. eff
cheney and prosperity through the motor
vehicle.

The national police conference at its
last session in New York adopted a reso-
luton recommending that the manufac-
ture and sale of small firearms be pro-
hibited except for military purposes.
The police must be in a position to
speak with authority on the subject. The
toll taken from their number every year
by armed crooks is appalling. Their
regular duties are increased and made
immeasurably more difficult because of
the ease with which guns can be ac-
CURED by citizens of all varieties and
localities. They know, as no civilian
can, how many suicides, murders and
shootings occur right along which never
would happen if arms were not readily
obtainable. Their voice should be heard
in Legislative halls.

Referring to the contest for the office
of town representative in Plymouth
Vt, in which are three candidates, two
men and q woman, the Ludlow Tribune
says: Mrs. Charles II. Scott, candi-
date for town representative. has stirred
up one of the most interesting contests
for the legislature in Windsor county by
her energetic campaign methods. Her
whirlwind tactics seem to have taken the
men aghast. In two days she signed up
120 endorsements of her petition, more
than half of the check list, and the men
candidates are complaining of unfair
ness" What is there unfair about get
ting out and hustling as Mrs. Scott evil

that women in politics will occasionally
break a few time-worn presidents.

NEW FEATURES.
Ringing Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Bring Entire ShipIoad of Novelties
 From Europe.

Made even more tremendous than in 1921 by the recent addi- tion of many more trained wild animal displays and the pur- chase of Europe's biggest horse show, Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey com bined will exhibit at Tucson, September 19, 1922
 All who glance over the cable news or who read the magazines must have noted the many con. tracts entered into by the Ring ling Brothers for foreign talent last winter. A special ship was chartered this spring to bring the hundreds of human perform CTS, trained animal acts and equine displays to America. More than million persons saw the mammoth new circus of 1922 during the weeks that it exhibit, ed in Madison Square Garden, New York. Now this marvellous exhibition is touring the country aboard five great railroad trains. It is third bigger than the Ringling Brothers and Barnum 6 Bailey show of last season. It is ten times larger than any other circus now on tour.
 Big as is this wonder circus of 1922-with it's more than twenty trained wild animal displays in steel arenas, fully 15O wonder fully schooled trick horses, 700 men and women performers, 100 clowns, and scores of features the price of admission is no more than before. And though the trained animal numbers and the immense horse show were cir cuses in themselves while tour ing Europe, they are not offered as separate attractions by the Ringing Brothers and Barnum 6 Bailey combined shows. In, stead all are on one gigantic program. Every thing is in one mammoth main tent. One ticket admits to all and includes ad mission to the tremendous double menagerie. There are more than a thousand animals in the zoo of this circus and these include a tiny baby hippopotamus only recently born, and accompanied by it's three ton mother. An other remarka ble geological feat ure is an armored rhinocerOuS, the only one known to exist and for which the Ringlings recently refused an offer of $50, ,OOO.

ROUND UP WILD HORSES.

Tucson. Local forest service officials report that the round up of horses and burros which was just terminated in the Empire range country netted the rang CTS 12O head of horses and 17 burros. The~round up was car ried out by the forest service in co operation with ranchers, who wanted the range cleared of the stock, which had been eating valuable forage that would other wise be saved for the cattle.
 Assistant Forest Supervisor McKenbie of the local office, supervised the round up. He stated that most of the horses captured have been branded at some time in the past, but that a mum Der of them were as wild as deer and very hard to handle.
 A week was spent in the work and the range was cOmbed over until it is thought that every stray horse has been corralled. Owners were found for all of the horses and the Mexican settlers on the range claimed the burros branded and otherwise. Un branded or unclaimed may be killed, but in this instance every animal was claimed.
 There were horses in the bunch from every county in this section of the state and a few from New Mexico, showing that the wild element had come to the front in their natures and caused them to seek the noun tain fastnesSes There were five year oldS that had never had a rope on them, and a great many had to be roped by the foot as a rope on their neckS would not hold them.
 About ninety different brands were found and recognized. b. sent owners were notified to claim their stock by letters sent out from the forest service office.
 The forest supervisor states that there is no market for horses and that all but the very

best COW horses are not wanted. He cited a case in this round up of a rancher, living at a dis tance, being notified that they had captured a fine mare and a yearling colt belonging to him. The man sold the pair for ten dollars rather than make the trip after them and have the ex- pense of keeping them up.
 The penalty for letting horses loose on the range after one of these general round ups is a fine of forty cents per head per month in the way of grazing fee. This is greatly in excess of the nominal fee charged.

IMPORTS AND EXPORTS.

Douglas, ,Sept.-A very notice able increase in the value of ex- ports and imports through the port of Douglas is observed in the monthly survey compiled by G. l.. Motley, deputy customs collector in charge. While the increase is due to some extent to the washing out of bridges on the Nacozari line during the lat ter part of July, which caused some of the expectations and inn portations to be handled in Au- gust, there nevertheless was a decided improvement in all lines of business. MT. Motley said.
 The total value of imports for August was $33O, ,993, compared with $215, ,582 for the previous month. There was cores pondingly greater amount of ex- ports.
 MT. Motley pointed out that the greatest value of exports passing thru this port did not show in the statistics, compiled by him for the Nogales office, be- cause it was golG anG silver, not considered as merchandise, and consequently not subject to i'm port or export tax. Last month silver and gold valued at $335, : O57 passed thru this port.
