"The joint committee, take It.,
would consider only questions of
policy. Is it desirable to have q
paved road to Phoenix, If so, by
way of Parker, Needles or Blythe?
The purpose of the committee would
be to take up and determine the
questions of policy and have the
regular committees of the chamber
of commerce or the automobile club
carry out that policy and the cons
mittee stand behind and see that 1t
is done. We want as strong men as
we can possibly get on that commit
tee as we want to react on our COM
munity there.
"The Lee Highway association is
as strongly entfenched to get its
road through as any organization
going. 1t would take hold and push
for It. There is no reason why that
couldn't be made the Blythe paved
highway to Phoenix. 1t is farther by
Yuma and farther by Needles. We
want the closest way to Los Angeles.

TO HIS NIBS,
THE REALTOR

The words 'realtor" and "optimist"
are synonymous. That much was
demonstrated at the last meeting of
the Salt River Valley Realtors asso-
citation, when so members of the or
ganization gathered about the lunch
con at the Hotel Adams and
active years in the history of the as
ISOLATION"
These "Peptimists," as they were
termed by Senator II. b Wilkinson,
are among the most loyal citizens of
the state. Every man is an active
booster for his communicable OBJ
server of the good things in life.
Probably no industry suffered
greater depression in 1921 than the
real estate industry. Especially was
this true in the Salt River valley,
where conditions were unusually ad-
verse to the transfer of property.
But the real estate man just kept
smiling. He believed in advertising
and his program consisted of boost
ing. boosting, boosting.
II thought Phoenix and the Salt
River valley were dead issues after
had talked with a prominent busi-
ness man in a downtown restaurant
few nights ago." said a well known
Cleveland man in q short talk at the
realtors luncheon last Monday
''Why. he just spread gloom all over
the place and had about decided to
move on to a place where the out
look was little brighter.
"But Sunday / met some OF my
old friends in the real estate business
and today, as your guest here, have
just about decided that Phoenix is
the one live place in the Southwest.
If your city had 5000 such optimists
as you fellows are, what a whale Of
a city you'd have" he concluded.
And so, through it all, the real
estate man has kept plugging along
at a pace about 40 steps ahead OF
actual speed. He has kept smiling,
kept boosting. The result has been
a reaction on the knoclker. Phoenix
is still very much alive and kicking
stronger than ever. Thanks TO his

individual. 1t is enclosed with French
easement windows. All windows are
screened with copper screening.
The upstair apartments are small
er. One enters into a large reception
room from the outside stairway. A
large combined living and dining
room, Is by "a feet, with ornamental
stone fireplace, built-in bookcases
and buffets, makes an unusually at
tractive room. This room has French
doors to front and rear. leading to
the reception hall and kitchen, which
can be thrown open, making one large
room.
A front bedroom is much like the
downstair bedroom, while the kitchen
contains the built-in features SO pop
ular nowadays. There also is a screen
sleeping room or sun parlor.
The bathrooms are of tile with

HOME BUILDERS ANNUAL
REPORT REFLECTS TRUE

DECLARE FOUR PER CENT DIVIDEND
AFTER PAYING ALL EXPENSES AND

TON; ALL OFFICERS REELECTED

Reflecting steady volume of business throughout

tive owner of Phoenix real estate 1t discoses among
other things, but slight depreciation in realty values

Warm co operation by Los An
geles to the plans detailed by the
Phoenix man was indicated by the
chamber members. In explaining
the proposed highway situation, Sem
ator Wilkinson said:
'Tn Marfcopa county, we are build
ing highway system OF 300 miles OF
concrete roads, costing $S,5OO,O0O.
That is entirely outside Of Phoenix.
Port Of that will run 80 miles
west of Phoenix. You will have

From Mecca. to Blythe or to the river
is about 100 miles. 1t Is about 95
miles to Blythe and four or five to
the river You would have 100 miles
to pave and half the bridge. We
would have 40 miles and half OF the
bridge.
sMaricopa ounty would have to
pay for it's share and bond the state
for the other county and half OF the
bridge, and it's done. That would De
about 400 miles. 1t can be shortened
a little by planning the route. At Az

Slavery Reports
From Abyssinia
TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wire1

LONDON, Jan. 21.-Discussing the
Westminster Gazette's articles on
Abyssinia, in which two correspon-
dents disclosed, among other asser-
tions, that slavery still existed in that
country, Robert p. skinner. American
consul general at London, who in
1908, negotiated Americas only treaty
with Abyssinia told the Associated
Press today he was not disposed TO
take the correspondents scandal
seriously.
He believed the difficulty In Abys-
sinia was an outcome or lnternai r.
ligious differences which prohlpitSu
the natives from consolidating the4l
national interests and maintaining tue
countrys developments along the llnes
laid down by King Menelik.
He declared it was difficult LOT
foreign observers to maintain the
proper regard for the history and ira
ditions of a country where an early
form of Christianity and ancient
patriarchial government maintained
absolute authority which no outside
power had been able to dislodge
Regarding the article of the Gazette,
in which it was asserted that Ameri-
can concerns We're supplying arms to
Abyssinia, Mr.. skinner declared there
was no logical criticism. 1t naturally
was a question for washington, but
he believed the Abyssinians could
easily obtain arms elsewhere II

The four flat apartment house pic
tured above is one of many fine new
structures now in the course of con-
struction in Phoenix. 1t is located
at 202 West Roosevelt, at the head
Of Second avenue, and represents an
investment of $4,000, Jack DaYey,
the builder announced.
Combining an unusually attractive
style of architecture with a striking
exterior finish and a pleasing ar
rangement OF rooms, the apartment
Is attracting the attention of build
ers from all sections of the state. 1t
is of mission style with Spanish style
tile roof, daring in design and honey
in general appearance.
An arch driveway through the CEN
ter of the structure that practically
makes it two separate structures is a
feature that is receiving favorable
comment from builders and archi-
tects. This driveway leads to a four
car garage on the rear of the lot, the
approach being paved with concrete.
The garage building also contains
sleeping quarters for maids as well
as a laundry.

Membership Drive
OF Realtors Asso.
Now In Progress

The annual membership drive OF
the Salt River Valley Realtors assoc
citation is now under way. 1t will
continue for an indefinite period but
with the final aim of securing a 100
per cent membership in the valley.
Three active committees have been
named by the newly elected presi-
dent, John r. Lotus, to carry on the
drive. One Of these committees will
have charge of broker membership;
another will have charge of agent
membership and the third will have
charge of associate membership.
Business and professional men of the
city are invited to file their applica-
tions for associate membership in
the association.
In 1921 the club had a membership
of 125 active members Club officials
hope to see this doubled for the pres
ent year and have set 250 members as
their ultimate goal.
Annual membership fees are now
due. These should be either mailed
or taken in person to the club secre-
tary treasurer, Frank A. jefferson.
