ARIZONA SUPERIOR
 TO MEXICO, COAST
 VISITOR TELLS US

Arizona IS superior to Mexico in the advantages it offers for devel- opment in the opinion of Richard H. Cole, Of Pasadena, prominent business man, who returned to Cal ifornia yesterday afternoon after a couple of days in Prescott on busi- ness with the firm of Anderson, Gale and Nilsson.
 You may say that I am very much pleased with the rapid strides of the city in civic improvement and other ways. Prescott, located in its little valley up here ill the noun tains, reminds me very much of Switzerland. While I've been cross ing your state for the past 36 years travelling between tn Atlantic and Pacific coasts, 1t is only in tn last year that I have begun to realize the resources of Arizona.
 q can't understand why the in- vesting population of this country is jumping into Mexico, with all these values here There are better opportunities in Arizona than in Mex ico by far. I was a representative both of Madeira and Carranza during both their revolutions, on this side of the border, and I am able to compare the two places. If the peo- pie of the east only knew of the wonderful opportunities of the south west, the trains couldn't carry them.

LEGION AUXILIARY LEADER BELIEVES
 IN PRACTICALLY

At dinner at the Yavapai club
 last night, Mrs. H. T. Southworth,
 head of the American Legion
 Auxiliary here, arranged with Mrs.
 William Healy Cudworth, national
 vice-president, to address a meet
 ing of the local women at the
 Parish house at o'clock tonight.
 Albert Akin, commander of Ernest
 Love post, who attended the din
 ner, at the same time issued call
 for the legion men to attend to-
 nights meeting.
 Mrs. William Hea1y Cudworth, vice-commander of the National American Legion Auxiliary and chair man of the national welfare commit tee of that organization, reached Prescott yesterday afternoon on an official visit to veterans hospitals.
 Before she leaves, Mother" Cud- worth, 'shorn of all those other titles, will have reached the hearts of all the boys at the institution whom she may be able to meet, and will, if the ideas she communicated to an inter viewer shortly after her arrival are distributed, add much to the auxil- iary of Ernest A. Love post.
 Ta:s official, middle-aged woman with wonderful eyes, earns the title of mother" for two reasons. She wears a gold star, and she has HOO American Legion boys in a post at her home in Milwauelle, named after her son, killed in the war, and to those HOO, she is not known by all the long and high sounding titles that she got by election and appoint ment in the organization.
 Mrs. Cudworth is the originator of the National Cookie Jar and the Ma tional Jam Closet. She goes on the theory that it is far better to give a sick veteran one large, home growed cookie and a gob of rich home-preserved jam than to fill him full of distractions about the heroism he has displayed and the fortitude he is still displaying. Conceding that these are both true things, she goes right on hollering for the national and state welfare funds and the equit- able distribution thereof, so that they may do the best good.
 In conversation yesterday with George Nilsson of the national re- mobilization committee of the Amerl- can Legion, Mrs. Cudworth related some of the amusing incidents of her career as an auxiliary officer. She drew a plaintive letter from the secretary of a Vermont auxiliary unit. saying that as that state had no hospitals, the auxiliary was devOting its time 10 local charitable work. Mrs. Cudworth wrote back blessing the lady's dear heart and informing her that at such and such hospital there were so many Vermont boys and at some other hospital there were some more and so on down the list. And then she told the Vermont lady that she certainly did have hospitals, not necessarily in Vermont, but within reach of the mail and telegraph.
 A high auxiliary official spent some months investigating conditions

Approval of Highway as Federal Aid Project Awaited; Forest Aid and Forest Development Funds Distinguished.

"Why isn't the Prescott to Ash Fork highway being built?" is the question which has been asked re- gently by taxpayers, chiefly stock men and rancSers having to travel over the present. road s"Tie high way crews are at work on the Has sayampa road and the Fossil Creek road, but no work is being done on the most important of all, the Ash Fork road. Automobile tourists every day are passing through Ash Fork on the mainline, and very little of this tourist traffic is being diverted to Prescott because of the rotten road over which it has to travel to get here"

Government Project

Inquiries at the office of the coun- Ity highway commission yesterday. re- vealed that construction of the road is being held up for federal ap- proval, which is expected to mater ialize in about a month. Carrying out of the big Yavapai county road program is not simply matter of spending the funds derived from the million and a half dollar highway improvement bond issue. Not at all. That million and half dollars would build just about half, or less than half, of the roads under construction, surveyed or contemplated under the present road program. The rest of it is being built by funds derived from federal aid and forest aid ap- propriations, of which a good share has been secured for Yavapai by the | highway commission and the county engineer.
 Thus, the Prescott to Ash Fork road is to be built at a cost of $780, GOO. It is to be built to match tine standard good road requirements of the United States bureau of public roads, which will match Yavapai money with an equal amount of its town, thus making up the cost of the road. The Prescott to Ash Fork road
 is to be part of the main north and
 south state highway system, of which the southward continuation will be
 the Hassayampa road, now being laid
 out by crews of the public roads bu- reau Furthermore, all of the Has
 sayampa road which lies within the boundaries of the Prescott National
 forest, stretch extending about IS
 miles south of Prescott, is being built
 by the bureau alone. The Fossil
 Creek road is to be built in the same
 way, and construction of that high
 way which will link the north with
 a main artery from southern Arizona
 via Roosevelt lake, IS to begin very coon

CHICAGO, July 10. - With in creasing numbers of state troops and emergency forces of United States deputy marshals on guard wherever outbreaks have been threatened the government today announced that life and property would be protected the mails continued and interstate commerce not interrupted despite the strike of railway shopmen.
 After a conference with President Harding, Attorney General Daughter ty said that additional deputy mar shals had been authorized and that they would be sent wherever strike disorders justified. The attorney generals announcement came shortly after Lieutenant Governor Sterling, head of the state government in Hi nois in the absence of Governor Small had ordered five companies of militia to Bloomington to protect the shops of the Chicago & Alton rail road. The ordering out of the state troops followed appeals from the local authorities.
 At Clinton, where the Illinois Cen tral shops have been under guard of state troops since Saturday night, when an outbreak was threatened fol- lowing a fatal shooting affray, the day passed quietly though several shots were fired by sentries at a group of men believed to be ad- vancing to attack the shops. The attackers fled, none being injured.
 At Aurora where an emergency force of deputy marshals has been on guard since the Burlington ob- tained an injunction Saturday, sev- era1 hundred strike sympathizers held silent and orderly parade about the shops.
 Aside from a few clashes the can cel1ation of some passenger trains on the shorter runs and the reopen1ng of shops in various sections there were few developments on the day that executives had expected to fur nish the turning point of the strike because of the ultimatum of many roads that all strikers who did not return to work today would forfeit their seniority rights.
 Little disorder was reported as a result of reopcning of shops. At Hoxie, Ark, 50 non-union workmen sent there for shop duty were chased out of town and forced to entrain for Poplar Bluff, Mo- The Katy" shops in Parsons, Kans, the scene of rioting earlier in the strike, re- opened under the protection of 800 guardsmen with 150 non-union men on duty.

REBOUND OF FARM PRICES

The federal department Of agricul-
ture notes a considerable decline in
the value of farm products in the
month from August Is to September
Is. One of the most vital questions
of the moment bearing upon the i'm
mediate outlook for business is that of
the probable purchasing power of
farmers this fall. Industry has been
cheered by the recurrent reports of
excellent growing crops and the prom
Use of a greater abundance of har-
vests this year than in 1921. The
farmers, however, have not shared
greatly in this enthusiasm. Thu rea-
son is plain. Since July the prices
of wheat, corn and other foodstuffs
have fallen, in some cases precipi-
lately. Wheat declined more than 20
cents bushel to below 81. The price
received on the farm was much less.
At the same time farm values were
tumbling, other commodity prices
have been rising. Coal, steel, build
ing materials. and clothing all are
higher than they were in the summer
when wheat started to decline.
d
itself into the situation, in the person
OF Mustapha Renal. The specter of
war in Europe had an immediate in
fluence upon wheat and values have
advanced about 10 cents a bushel.
Even without the Turkish war threat,
grain prices evidently were too low
in view of world conditions. An esti-
mated decrease of 100000 bushels
of wheat in the worlds stored up sup
plies is shown compared with 1921.
The world crop is 100000 bushels
less than last year and in Europe the
harvest promises to yield 13S. 900, 900
bushels less. All this means sustained
demand for food from the exporting
nations. of which this country is at
the front.
products are less than they were dur
ing the war, they are stiIl far above
the prewar level in most instances,
and there is no immediate indication
Of sharp curtailment. "An things con-
sidered," says the Iron Trade Review,
cit seems probable that the slump of
farm products has been halted and
that conditions are shaping themselves
more favorably for the farmer" All
business will benefit from such a de-
velopment.
A war scare and a snort foreign
crop are doing for the farmer what the
tariff could not do.

CAPITAL, AND THE PEOPLE

At the recent convention of the
American Bankers association several
speakers urged that the United States
should cancel, in whole or in large
part, the debts due from foreign coun-
tries to the United States. This view
was SO strongly urged that It was
practically If not formally submitted
to the association for its action. 1t
Is noted, however. that the associa-
ton did not include that suggestion
in the resolutions it adopted, thereby
inferentially giving the suggestion its
disapproval. Moreover, one of the
first recommendations made in the
resolutions adopted by. the convention
was that which favors reduction of
governmental expenditures so that
taxes may be reduced"
That resolution was virtually re-

cancellation for it is inevitable that
every dollar of debt cancellation that
might be granted would mean an ad-

What Every Married Woman
KnnIES-1

A business girl who makes a good
salary is engaged to be married to
a young man who is studying to be a
doctor, and who is working his way
thru school against many odds.
The young woman wants to help her
fiance financially, but he refuses to
take money from her, nor does he
want to marrX until he has completed
his education and has established him
self as physician.
The girl thinks this a very foolish
position for the young man to take.
and wants to know what think of 1t.
L think the young mans point of
view is not only the honorable one, but
the sensible one, and that q youth who
dence to fight his own way upward
unaided is worth waiting for as long
as Jacob waited for Rachel.
The man who will take money from
a woman, and who will let his sweet
heart work to support him is a poor.
weak, miserable creature who isn't
worth his purchase price, even in a
sale.
1t is natural that every woman
should want to help the man she loves
and when she sees that he needs mon
ey, and the comforts and necessities
that money buys, that she should
y y
pocketbook even to the last penny.
But it is a dangerous thing to do.
There is something strange, and sim
lister, and inexplicable about the
bhghting effect that a womans money
seems to have on a man, and not
once in d thousand times can she give
it to him without running him, and
Staying his affection for her.
Whether it is because it subverts
the laws of nature and makes the
weaker one the stronger, and turns
the one who should be the protector
into the protected; or whether it kills
a mans self-respect for him to be de-
pendent on a woman, and he hates
her because she visualiZes his own
weakness to him, nobody knows.
But certain it is that woman's
money almost invariably kills a mans
love for her. He may take it gladly
and eagerly. He may force ther to
give it to him, but almost invariably
it turns him into a cur who bites the
hand that feeds him.
You have only to look about you
to see a hundred proofs of this. Thinh
of the working girls you have known
who have lent money to their sweet
hearts, and lost both sweethearts and
money. Look at the rich girls who
marry poor men. How few of such
marriages are ever happy. The wom-
en- may be all that is lovely and sweet
and generous. They may even be sc
insanely in love that they have turned
over their fortunes to their husbands
but the men are peevish, disgruntled
cynics who scott at romance and love
and oftener than not are faithless to
the women whose angel food they
feast upon.

Senator Pepper of Pennsylvania, in
a speech at Pittsburgh recently. asked
the voters to bear in mind that "there
never has been a time in the last fifty
years that the result of presidential
election was not accurately forecast
by the preceding nationwide election
in an off-presidential year." This, If
true. is worth remembering because
if the new tariff law affects the vot-
ing in the same way that new tariff
laws usually have done the result of
the 1924 election can be forecast right
now, without waiting for next Novem-
Der.
