 Hunt related some of his expert ences while United States minister to Siam. Later, he launched an at tack on the constitutional amendment program now before the special ses- sion.
 Should these amendments go through, he declared, "I'n get tin lizzie and tour the state and make speeches against the measures which 1 feel it is my duty to try to kill

SAFFoRD SOCIETY LADIES
 ENTERTAIN WITH A CIRCUS

A noteworthy occasion was last Wednesday when Mrs. S. B Yorks her daughter Mrs. E. l.. Gay of Met calf, her granddaughter. Mrs L. A. w. Burtch, together with Mrs. Ros- COG Stapp and Mrs. Dale Cunning ham made trip to Stafford by auto where tltey were guests of honor al the celebration of the anniversary Ot the organization of the Stafford WO- mans Club. at which also Mrs. Fl. A. Giles, President of the State Child Welfare Bureau, and a sister of Mrs lFreudenthal, from New YorS. werSs honored guests.
 Under the guiding hand of Mrs Schenck, president of the Stafford lWomans Club. the ladies of that thriving city had prepared most elaborate entertainment for the mens- bership of the club and their guests. The feature of the entertainment was an Indoor Circus and the stunts performed by Safford's society ladies
 would do credit to the Worlds Greatest Tent Shows"
 Mrs. F. l.. Ginter was chairman of the committee of arrangements. and it had been the intention of the ladies to give the populace of the valley a treat in the form of a street parade. but owing to the high winds pr.> vailing on that day the elephant
 wa.s unable to navigate so the sheriff called of the parade. All
 males were excluded from the circus. | This was on the account of the ferocious "Tedy Bears" who became l very aggravated at the mere mea- 1 tion of a man.
 Had the townspeople of Stafford not been forewarned, it is probable that 1 riot alarm would have been turned
 in and the Masonic Hall, where the
 celebration took place. raided, for 1 the entertainment was continual l round of pleasure from the opening ] parade with the band" to the grand 1 concert at the finish.
 Mesdames Stapp. Gay and Gun
 ningham were also delegated to the i district meeting of the B. Y. M. T.
 which meeting was held early in order that both entertainments could hs enjoyed by the guests.

SENATOR CAMERON KILLS THE GRAND CANYON
 APPROPRIATION BILL

The entire appropriation for, ad- minstration maintenance and further improvement of the Grand Canyon national park was stricken from the interior appropriation bill by the senate last week before the measure was passed and sent to conference in the house for adjustment of ! dozen amendments.
 Action by the senate followed 8 speech by senator Cameron, republi can of Arizona, in which he attacked the useless and worse than useless expenditure of public funds in states where national parks are located ir order "to gratify the whims of few who would profit by the expendi- tures."
 The senator declared that the $90, 900, which it was proposed to spend in the Grand Canyon park would go tt build community houses, trails ant roads over which lone corporation could put busses and get that mucf more from the public" He charged also that it was the intention of those behind the appropriation to built campers quarters in regions wher' only thirty or forty millionaire could congregate and have a gooc time"
 Concessions in all of the grea parks are controlled by one corpora tion. he asserted
 What I have said of the Gran, , Canyon park is true of all the others, he shouted 'I intend to do all can to stop such foolish eXpendi lures. It is no wonder that the pee pie wonder why their taxes are larg when so much money goes into sue
 sink holes.'
 | The opinion was expressed late 1 that some of the funds for the Gran Canyon park would be restored to tn I bill in conference. MT. Cameron l howtveJi served notice that ther 1 would be no spending of money fo what he described as the developmer of concessionaire properties if h ! could prevent it.
 The two principal sums in the al
 propriation for the park were s4S.0O 1 for park mairtenance. administrator
 etc. and s40.000 for reconstruction ( the Kaibab trail. completing the He init rim road and for the building ( 1 community houses and camper | quarters.

 At mile intervals the signs will tell the traveller the distance to the nearest towns in either direction, and all forks will be similarly signed. In addition to this warning signs will be erected at all railroad crossings dangerous sections of the highway and upon the approach to all school houses.
 These signs are of white metal with the lettering in black, thus af fording a strong color-contrast which can be read in the glare of a spot ol 1 head light as well as during the day ] All signs will be placed on steel posts { and each will bear the emblem o 1 the Automobile Club of Arizona, 9. a fitting reminder of the work of thi: l organization in advertising the high ways of the state.

LEGISLATURE WILL PROBABLY ADJOURN
 THE COMING WEEK

PHOENIX, March 7-Perhaps the most important measure to be intro- duced at the extraordinary session of the legislature was brought into the senate today by Senator Goodell of Pima It would provide financial relief at once for the University of Arizona, but for the need of which legislation there probably would have been no special session. The bill was hurried through un der suspension of rules and sugges. tion was made that as soon as the house has confirmed the action of the senate, there would be mo vital neces- sity for the legislature longer to re- main in session. The measure au- thorizes the state auditor to draw his warrant on the general fund for an amount not exceeding so per cent of the uncollected taxes of the uni versity fund This fund under an act of the legislature in regular ses- sion was to be made up of mill tax. If the taxes had been fully paid, the fund would have been sufficient, but. as much of the taxes went deliI- quent. the university was left in a strengthened position.
