RESOLUTION FOR
SOLDIER BONUS
APPROVED GOV.

Gov. Thomas f. Campbell yester-
day approved senate joint memorial
resolution No. 8, petitioning congress
to speedily arrive at a just and equit-
able plan whereby the ex-s service men
and women who took part in the
world war NAV receive substantial
recognition. The resolution was in
troduced by Senator Celora M. Stod-
dard of Maricopa county and was
adopted by the senate on March IL
and by the house on March 10. 1t is
addressed TO the senate and the house
of representatives of congress and is
as follows:
whereas it is the opinion and
judgment of the Arizona legislature
in special session convened, that the
millions of citizens of this nation who
unselfishly risked their lives in pa
triotic devotion to the nation during
the great world war, have not re-
ceived the consideration from this
nation due them for their patriotic
sacrifices, and
Whereas we deem that some
prompt and decisive action should be
taken by the congress of the United
States toward not only doing justice
to our soldiers but also to impress
the world at large that this United
States, a nation whose form or gov
ernment is voluntary and grants the
greatest amount of liberty and free
dom to it's people, is not ungrateful
to each individual who when the ma
tion's safety is imperiled or when the
peace OF the world is at stake, unself-
ishly offers everything possessed,
even life itself. that law and order,
liberty and righteousness shall pre-
vail: and
"Whreas, there is now pending in
the congress Of the United States Va
rious proposals commonly denominat-
ed bonus measures having the end
in view OF making substantial pay
ments to ex- service men and women
in recognition of their service to their
country;
Now be 1t resolved by the senate
and house of representatives Of the
fifth legislature of the state OF Ari-
zona, in special session convened.
that the congress Of the United
States be hereby petitioned TO speedi-
ly arrive at a just and equitable plan
whereby the ex-service men and
women taking part in the great world
war may receive substantial recog-
milton for their patriotism and serv-
ice.
I'm adopting this memorial we do
so with the firm belief that right
eous plan can be evolved by which
funds can be provided for this pur-
pose through the reduction of un-
necessary expenditures of the govern
ment and through the utilization OF
means of revenue which do not Inn
pose a burden upon the people, and
without the imposition OF special
taxes for that purpose, and we earn
estly memorialize the congress OF the
United States toward this end.
"Be it further resolved that a copy
OF this memorial resolution be for
warded to the president Of the Unit
ed States senate, to the speaker OF
the national house of representatives,
and to each of the senator's and rep
resentatives in congress from the
state of Arizona"

Business Never More Stable
"The automobile industry has
passed through the fire and has come
out more stable than ever" declared
Mr.. WHY'S. Values never were bet
ter than at present: waste and use
less expense have been almost entire
" eliminated and the industry is
looking forward to a real era OF sub
stantial prosperity.
However," he added. business to-
day is for the man who fights for it.
The day is past, in my opinion, when
the merchant can rest his feet on the
desk and sell goods as favor to the
public. Efficiency, hard work, long
hours-these are the things that will
tell the story Of success during the
coming year"

That the farmers of Maricopa
county expect to increase their acre
age OF cotton, wheat, hay. and truck
crops over that OF last season, is
shown by the government crop re-
port just issued by the local office of
the u. S. bureau of markets and crop
estimates. Decreased acreages are
reported for barley. grain sorghums,
and land used exclusively for pas
ture, while the acreages for oats,
corn, and grain hay will be about the
same as one year ago.
The total area that will be planted
to crops in the county this season is
estimated at approximately 100000
acres, which includes land that will
be double cropped. From a census
of 1853 farms in different parts of the
county. it is estimated that approx
mately $4,000 acres viii be planted TO
cotton, which compares with 10000
acres in 1921. 10000 acres in 1920,
$4,000 acres in 1919. and 10000 acres
in 1918.
The alfalfa acreage, including the
acreage of grain hay, is placed at
10000 acres as against $4,000 acres
one year ago, $4,000 acres two years
ago, and $4,000. acres three years ago.

REDUCE SERVICE
ON BUCKEYE LINE

Announcement has been made that
the Arizona Eastern railroad has dis
continued train service beyond Buck
eve except once each week and then
only for carlot business.
The reason for this reduction in
service. it is declared, is on account
OF the steady dwindling of the local
less than carlot shipments because or
motor trucks hauling freight for hire

for points on the Buckeye line be-
tween Hassayampa and Buckeye for
