Because of the danger of an early
thaw which would make the roads
impossible with mud, thousands of
camels, oxen and Cossack ponies
were pressed into service to haul the
American corn to districts east of the
Volga Basin in Russia. 1t was neces-
sary, in breaking the back of the
worlds greatest famine, even to use
hand sleds to cross ice which was
too dangerous for draft animals.
Rail transportation, however, proved
to be the chief handicap Of the Ameri-
can Relief Administration, for the
Russian railways, never good, are
very bad at present. Only vigorous

Administration in Russia, stimulated
the railway authorities to point
where food was moved on schedule.
At warehouses and along railroad
tracks, beggars and hungry peasants
scrape the kernels of corn out of the
corners of empty box cars. digging
deep into the mud for any that drop,
and sift others out of filth along the
tracks. Some of these cleaners eat
the kernels as they walk; Others put
them into little sacks. The people of
the lower Volga are familiar with
corn, though they have not tasted it
in many months. They are amazed
to find that the American corn can
be milled without loss, for their ma
tive corn suffers loss of II per cent
in mining.
In addition to nearly 100000 chill

Relief Administration kitchens, the
gift corn from America is bringing
a new hope'of life TO 100000 adults,
and "Amerikanski maize" is a term
which is spoken with depth OF feel
ing by the Russians in the famine
district.
The American Relief Administers
ton believes the relief has progressed
SO far that, if fair grain crop is
harvested this year, the famine will
have ended by autumn. Misery and
suffering will remain, but in the
words of a report from the hunger
area they will be the result of pow
erty, an economic condition calling
for basic remedies, rather than of
famine, which is drought disaster
due to natural causes.

be done annually, shall commence on the first day of July, succeeding the date of location of such claim. If it was intended that this change should claims located during 1921 and before claims2 located during 1921 and before July, the period of the annual assess ment work would begin July 1, 1921 and terminate July l, 1922, but if it were intended that July, 1922, should be the beginning of the changed period the claims located during 1921 and 1922, prior to July 1, would re- ,quire annual assessment work between July 1, 1922 and July 1, 1923.
 It is our opinion that it was intend ed to inaugurate this change in the period of assessment work, July l, 1921, in which case the owners of claims located before 1921, had the as- sessment period extended 6 months and the locators of mining claims in 1921, before July 1, had their period shortened 6 months, thus requiring the assessment work on all located claims to be completed by July 1, 1922.

LICENSE LAWS FOR TOURISTS

The laws which govern the length of time a motorist touring may stay in State without taking out a li- cense are exceedingly varied. Some of the States honor the plates of an other,. but the majority of States re- quire that after a certain specified time the driver purchase license to operate in the visiting State.
 In order that motorists of Los An. geles and environs who are contem- plating tours may be fully informed w. F. Seel of the LeXington-Los An geles Company, distributors of the eel ebrated Lexington Minute-Man-Six, has made list of the States which grant reciprocity of the States which demand new license, with the period a motorist may remain in each sep arate State.
 The States granting reciprocity are:
 Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Delaware, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pen nsylvania, South Dakota, Texas, Yer mont, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
 The length of time allowed in other States is as follows:
 Arizona, six months; California, three months; Colorado, ninety days; Florida, thirty days; Georgia, thirty days illinois, sixty days; Indiana, sixty days; Kansas, thirty days; Maine, thirty days; Michigan, ninety days; Minnesota, thirty days: Missis- sippi, sixty days; Nebraska, thirty days; Nevada, thirty days; New Hampshire, twenty days.

we will have to take care of their needs, it is fact that quite num- Der of the distributors and their rep. resentatives are moving out of Ari- zona because present day business will not let them break even, however, this is the time that the owner of Hud- son or Essex car needs our help the most, so 1 have picked you to go over to Arizona and open a wholesale dis tributing branch, we want you to car ry full supply of Hudson and Essex parts and also to see that every Hud- son and Essex owner receives the very best of service. In other words as sure them that We are always behind the merchandise that we market and will always make it our business to see that they receive fair treatment"
 On April Is ,1921, MT. Moriarity ar, rived in the state of Arizona and the wholesale plant of Harold L. Arnold was started, since that date every motorist in the state knows the name VI IIdl lolu L' AlnOio euu dloO tiAe pluck that he had in opening up his wholesale plant when quite a number of the other distributors were closing their doors.
 Today Hudson and Esex cars are among, the best thought of cars in the state, because every purchaser of a Hudson or Essex car knows that Harold L. Arnold and this reputation is behind the deal, no matter from what dealer he may purchase.
 As a part of the Big Family" of Hudson and Essex Distributors in America the Organization of Harold l.. Arnold holds a most worthy posi- tion. Indeed, in point of territory, the three states of California, Nevada and Arizona, with the two states of North ern Mexico, in the Arnold franchise, is sufficiently important to command nine per cent of thee ntire factory output of Hudson and Essex cars.
 In this connection it is of interest to know that the 1922 Arnold con- tract with the Hudson Motor Co. and Essex Motors calls for a trial of 4,700 Hudson and Essex cars.

ANNUAL LABOR
 MUST BE DONE

The Miner has advised mine owners to get busy on their properties that their annual work be done before the first of July. It may not be ,amiss to state that the same rule that has been followed under the old laws ob- tains under the new, that if the mine owner begins his work prior to the first day of July he may continue without interruption until he has com pleted it and not take chance on los ing his claims. Many opinions have been given out that are misleading, and to again reinforce our position we are herewith giving the content of a letter received by Pickens E. Wood son from E. c. Finney, solicitor of the department of the interior and acting secretary, through Senator Bursum, of New Mexico. This letter is quite enlightning:
 May 9th, 1922 MT. Pickens E. Woodson,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 My dear comrade:
 Enclosed please find copy of opinion of the Assistant Secretary, Finney, with reference to the annual assess ment work on mining locations, which explains itself very fully.
 Keep me posted as to just how you are getting along, and any time that I can be of the slightest service to Jeu command mo.

 My dear Senator:
 Referring to inclosed correspondent ce submitted to you by MT. Pickens E. Woodson, of Katherine, Arizona, rel ative to when annual assessment work upon mining claims located between January l, and July1, 1921, must be performed to avoid the danger of re- location, l note that the Attorney General for Arizona has stated that, in his judgment, such locators would be required to perform the annual as- sessment work prior to July l, 1922.

MERCHANT PRINCE
 0F PACIFIC COAST

''The merchant prince of the Pacific Coast" is the title that has for quite a little while been attached to Harold L. Arnold, wholesale distributor! iof Hudson and Essex cars for the states of Arizona, California, Nevada and Mexico.
 Mir. Arnold has proven to the auto mobile merchants of the southwest that it pays to back up your mer- chandise with good service at all tim es, no matter what conditions may prevail throughout the different local ities. Take Arizona for instance, times were very hard, indeed, last spring and summer, this did not ef- feet the house of Arnold when it comes to seeing that every Hudson and Es- sev owner had the very best of ser vice on their cars. MT. Arnold had un- limited confidence in the state of Ari- zona, also in the people and their fighting spirit, he did not merely sit at his desk in oLs Angeles and write flowery leters relative to the great confidence tha the had in the state and it's ability to pull through the hard times--you bet he did so-he backed this confidence by a good sound and substantial cash investment here in Phoenix.
 On April 13, 1921, MT. Arnold called G. H. Moriarity one of his right hand men into his office and made the fol- lowing statement to him: : >
 "Moriarity, have the greatest con- fidence in the state of Arizona, at present we are not securing very much business from there, in fact there is very little business in Arizona for any one. Arizona has been very hard hit indeed, but I am thoroughly confident in the spirit of the people that Ari- zona will not always be where it is today, but that is getting away from my main reason for asking you in here, my main point is this; there are quite a number of Hudson and Essex cars in the state and we have certain moral obligations to these owners, they require service on their cars and

"AAASAh SesA ASS 0S oSSSASA " eAkO VF1AiSA of the Attorney General of the State nor by the Secretary of the Interior, as the question would arise, if at all, in the event of relocation of such a claim and upon adverse proceedings in the courts. However, l am glad to give you my opinion for what it is worth, and may state that it coincides with that of the Attorney General of Arizona.
 You will note that the statutes (42 Stat, 1861, provides that the period within which work shall be performed "shall commence at IF o'clock meridian on the first day of July succeeding the date of location of such claims. " A further proviso is, to the effect that in all such valid existing claims the annual period ending December 31, 1921, shall continue to F o'clock noon July l, 1922. The latter proviso was designed, of course, to take care of existing claims and to give an ex- tension of six months within which work might be performed thereon. One of the reasons for the latter pro- ,viso was to avoid having the year within which assessment work must be performed end at different times for different classes of claims. As to the first provision of law, it. seems that it was intended to permanently change the time within which annual assessment work upon mining claims must be performed, SO as to have the year begin and end with the first of July, instead of the first of January as heretofore. The requirement. in the statute is that the year within which assessment work is required to be performed begins on the first day of July succeeding the date of loca- tion. Therefore, if claim were To- cated, say, in June, 1921, the year within which work was required to be done began on the next first of July, or July 1, 1921, and to avoid relocation must have been performed during the year beginning July l, 1921, and end. ing July 1, 1922.
 Respectfully,
 (Signed) E. c. FTNNEY,
 Acting Secretary.
 The opinion of Attorney General Galbraith, of Arizona, which is re- ferred to in the letter of MT. Finney, is as follows:
 GALBRAITH OPINION:
 :.The period within which the work required to be done annually on all nnpatented mineral claim located since May 10, 1872, including such claims in the Territory of Alaska, shall commence at F o'clock Meridian, on the 1st day of July, succeeding the date of location of such claim Pro- vided, further, that on all such valid existing claims, the annual period ending December 31, 1921, shall con- tinue to F o'clock Meridian, July l, 1922"
 It is clear that the annual assess ment period for 1921 was continued to July, 1922.
 On the other hand, it is not clear when the annual period begins with reference to claims located prior to July, 1921.
 The amendment was adopted Aug- ust, 1921, and provides that the period within which the work is required to
