RECORD TRUCK RUN
MADE IN DELIVERY
OF PRESIDENTS FOWL

As the result of an appeal to the
General Motors Truck company of
Pontiac, Mich, to deliver the
turkey for President and Mrs.
Harding's Thanksgiving dinner at
1 the White House, a record nonstop
run of S25 miles between Chicago
and Washington was made on No
vember 27 and 2S.
A GMC truck carrying Supreme
ILL.," an Illinois bronze turkey, the
gift Of the Harding Girls club of
Morris g. Co, to President and Mrs.
Harding, left Chicago Sunday
night, November 26, and the turkey
was delivered at 1880 o'clock Tues
/ day morning after an elapsed rum
ming time of 81 hours and "a min
utes. An average speed of ~ miles
an hour was made.
At the White House the turkey
was received by Senator Mckinley
and Representative Fred l. Britten
of Illinois; Pyke johnson, secretary
of the National Automobile Cham
! ber of Commerce; Secretary OF
Agriculture Wallace, and George
Christian, secretary to President
| Harding,
The entire party, including the
! drivers and the Misses Marie Mad
dox and Elsie Allen, representating
the Harding Girls club, then went
into the office of President Hard
ing, where the chief executive
thanked them for their efforts ana
extended his greetings to the Hard
| ing Girls club. Senator Mckinley,
/ Mr.. johnson and Congressman
| Britten complimented the drivers
on their remarkable record.
Snow and ice were encountered
for 100 miles through the noun
| tains.
Otto Frazier, of the Chicago
branch of the truck company, and
Bert Harcourt, service expert OF
| the truck company, drove from
Chicago to just outside of Wheel
| ing, w, Va, maintaining an aver
age speed Of about 80 miles an
hour. They were relieved by Roy
Kloss of Wheeling, who took the
truck through the mountains safe
ly. over one of tn most dangerous
/ fOdQS III the tUuIllISt dSCSlN4Ab o
grades as high as $500 feet.
For the last three years it has
been the annual custom of the
Harding Girls club to send the
President and the first lady of the
land their Thanksgiving dinner but
this year, due to the scarcity of
large turkeys, one weighing Al
pounds could not be obtained un-
i til several days prior to Thanks
giving, making it too late to be sent
i by messenger or train.
The girls made special motor
coat of black and gold for the bird
to insure him against catching cold
and specia, cage was built
mounted on the rear Of the truck
on spiral springs to insure his COM
fort. Special feed and water were
carried the entire distance.
4 The route followed by the truck
was the National Old Trail, leading
/ from Chicago to Indianapolis, Co
, lumbus, GAINESVILLE, Wheeling,
Uniontown, Pa. and over the
mountains to Cumberland. Nd,
and into the District of Columbia.

MIRRORS ON AUTOS
ARE AMONG BEST.
PREVENTS ACCIDENTS

Mirrors on automobiles, showing
the driver, at a glance the condi-
ton of traffic Immediately behind
him, are among the best preven-
tives of traffic accidents in use to-
day, according to A. A. A, officials.
Mounted at the left side of the
windshield on the pen car. or
screwed to the frame Of the closed
car in the same position, the mir
ror calls immediate attention to a
car approaching from the rear, and
often saves a collision. with result
ant loss to both cars, it is pointed
out.
1.-THE A. A. A. has always main
tanned that every truck in the
United States should be equipped
with a mirror said NJ, o. Eldridge,
executive chairman of the A. A. A.,
land the addition of mirror to
the left hand side of the passenger
automobile would prove a large
added factor of safety. The A. A.
A. rule of the road is that one
vehicle approaching another from
the rear and passing II shall pass
to the left Of the vehicle ahead,
and this rule gives the driver with
left hand mirror a perfect view
Of the approaching motorist and
enables him to give the passing car
its share of the road. 1t does not
attract the attention of the driver
from the road ahead. as a passing
glance is all that is needed TO show
him traffic conditions to the rear
of his car.
Fifteen states and the District
Of Columbia now require mirrors
on trucks. the states being Yer
mont, Washington, California. Con-
necticut, Delaware, Pennsylvania.
New York. Indiana, Kentucky,
Me- 'yland, Maine. Massachusetts,
Michigan, Missouri and New Jer-
sey. Nevada is now considering
such a law and the movement Is
spreading to other states.
Passenger cars can benefit from
this example and their drivers can
do much to increase their present
margin Of safety by affixing a
small mirror to the left hand side
Of the cars"

Plans for Local Bootleg Bargain
 Sale are Spoiled
Modest Modesto Vera Awaits Preliminary Hearing and
 Officer Holds Booze

For the second time within a week "cut-rate" bootlegging has been dis GOV cred in Bisbee and vicinity. SenoI Whatshisname, of Chihuahua Hill who was arrested on Brewery Guich several dSys ago, admitted that he was selling mescal at 10 cents . "jolt."
 Now comes sharp reduction in the price of Jose Cuervo.
 Wotl You don't know Jose? Well he bears the same relationship to Agua Prieta and Naco that Mir Schlitz used to admit toward Milwau- kee. Jose Is the old boy who made Naco famous. Sometimes he is re- ferred to as plain tequila.
 Jose Cuervo used to bring from S10 a quart up, in Bisbee. The new price is $4 for 0 milk bottle full But 1t may never sell for that figure; the man who reduced the price is now re. posing in the city jail awaiting hear ing before James Allison, U. s. com. missioner.
 Modesto Vera is the hombre who slashed prices. He was arrested early Friday morning as he was crossing the border near Naco. James Gamble and Jack Deegan, customs officers, who nabbed Vera, say that he had six quarts of Jose Cuervo in his possession.
 Senor Vera, according to the offIc- CTS, told them he had intended taking the hoOtch to Bisbee and selling It for $4 quart. The bootlegging bus mess was dull in Bisbee, Vera is quot ed as having said. and he had decided that the only way to stimulate trade would be to stage a bargain sale. Vera said he had paid $22 for the te- quila in Naco, Sonora, and hoped to clear BIO on the trip.
 But Modesto's modest price was never written on the tags. Commis- sioner Allison is holding the hootch for evidence and Modesto is holding his breath and wondering what the inside of a federal courtroom looks like.

U. s. Attorney Urges That Naturalization Pepers of

Declaring that William James Cur now formerly of Bisbee, but whose residence is now unknown, is a mem- Der of he Industrial Workers of the World, and advocates resistance to the existing government of the Unit ed States and a complete control and ownership of all property in the Unit ed States through the abolition Of all other classes of society United States Attorney Frederick II. Bernard yes terday filed q petition in the federal court at Tucson asking that Curnow's certificate of naturalization be can celled.
 The petition recites that 1t is filed at the request of the secretary of the of the attorney general of the United States.
 At that time subject of England, Curnow was given his certificate of naturalization January l6, 1918, at Tombstone. according to the allega- tions.
 The petition continues:
 Said respondent was not, has not been and is not now attached to the principles of the Constitution of the United States, nor is the said re- spondent well disposed to the good order and the happiness of the same, and has since the year 1918 and now is a member of the Industrial Workers of the World; and % " that such purposes of said organiza- tion are to be accomplished without regard for right or wrong, but by the use of such unlawful means and meth ods known as sabotage and direct action.
 The respondents certificate of naturalization was procured by de- ception and fraud practiced upon the court, consisting of false Tepresenta- tions and concealment of the fact, by which the court was misled and i'm posed upon, and induced to render it's order and judgment directing the is suance of said certificate of naturali- .zation.."

Samuel Benton Knocked from Pole and Bruised in
 Peculiar Accident

Although a shocking coming from 20O0 volts of electricity is considered fatal under ordinary circumstances, Samuel Benton, for many years T res ident of Bisbee, was merely bruised and jolted when 10000 volts passed through his body and knocked him from a pole to the ground. 20 feet be- low. near Long Beach, Calif., ,veral days ago.,
 Benton. a field superintendent. for the Southern California Edison Com pany at Long Beach, was working on a transformer connection when he grasped what later proved to be a poorly insulated switch. Immediate ly 10000 volts passed through his body and he was hurled from the pole to the ground.
 Bento., sustained bruises from the fall and a deep burn in tho palm of his right hand. He was at no time unconscious and is reported rapidly recovering at his home in Long Beach.
 An ,official of the Edison Cumrany, commenting on the accident. was quoted in a Los Angeles dispatch as follows:
 The thing that saved Benton is that the voltage was high enough to Eurl him away from the contact. Two thousand volts is more than enough to kin a man. Hdt with a 2000-volt shock, man Is not able tc let go and the shock becomes sustained. This does the killing. Tn Renton's case, the moment the shock was received it hurled him off the pole and away from the contact. Then the sudden shock of landing on the ground re- stored the heart action, in all prop ability, and Benton was saved"
 Benton was reared in Cochise coun- ty and was employed for a number of years as an electrician by the Cop per Queen. An uncle and aunt, Mir. and Mrs. Henry Benton, live in Bis bee
