TEMPLE At MESA
Building Committee With
Bishops OF the Maricopa
Stake Wards Preside At
Ceremony-Work Is To
Go Steadily Ahead

MESA, April 25-Members of the
building committee and bishops of
the wards in the Maricopa stake
were on hand Tuesday morning when
the first earth was broken. marking
the commencement of work on the
new Latter Day Saints temple. to be
erected in Mesa at a cost of be-
kween 100000 and S500,000. Follow
ing the ceremonial participated in by
the officials, men and teams were at
work the balance of the day and the
force will be further augmented on
Wednesday.
Excavation of dirt to make room
for the basement and the foundations
as first in order and plows, scrapers
and teams will be most in use for the
next few weeks. President ]. W. Le-
sueur of the Maricopa stake, ]. i.
Lesueur, o. S. Stapley and G. G. Spills
bury Of the building committee. to-
gether with most of the bishops in
the stake. attended the beginning OF
work Tuesday morning and were the
first to break earth with the pick.
Together with D. c. Young, Jr. a
member of the architectural firm in
Salt Lake City, who has the temple
building in charge, and who arrived
in Mesa last Saturday to supervise
the beginning of work here, they
went over the building site and the
many details of the commencement
of excavation.
Excavation work will be under the
charge of Frank Anderson and he
win also supervise the sand and the
gravel hauling. 1t is expected that
the gravel pits will be located in the
river bed north of Mesa, where the
screen and other equipment will be
placed.
The Servant in the House
Professor Anderson outdid himself
in his reading of "The Servant in the
house at the Methodist Episcopal
church on Sunday evening. Without
the aid of footlights, costumes or
scenery. and with only limited time
al. his disposal, he succeeded. as one
little girl expressed it, making it
seem 'just like a play" His well
modulated voice, responding to his
will, was equally expressive in rem
dering contempt. anger and right
eouS indignation on the one hand and
admiration, filial respect and love on
the other. So well were the charac-
ters impersonated. no two people
would agree as to which was most
life like Everyone liked the art with
which the most reverend bishop was
depicted, with his dim eyesight. his
hardness of hearing and hardness of
heart. There was probably more than
one masculine toe in the audience
itching to. bestow a swift kick on this
meanest of grafters. The final scene
was of a highly emotional character.
There were few indeed who did not
experience some choking of emotion
when the two brothers, the wronger
and the wronged. jointed hearts and
hands in an undertaking of extreme
hazard.
During the brief intermission be-
tween acts and at appropriate points
during the reading. Miss Leona POM
eroy on the violin accompanied by
Mrs. Wesley Anderson at the piano,
rendered exquisite music. This was
the final and artistic touch necessary

MAKES LONG STAGE
TRIP ON THE WAY To
CONVENTION HERE


Probably none has made a longer
trip when it is considered the travel
by stage and auto before railroad
stations is reached than G. w. Space,
of Pierce City Idaho, who is a COM
missioner of the highway district of
that section. Mr.. Space came to the
Phoenix convention because he is in
terested in the movement to secure
an annual federal appropriation of
500, 600 for the five-year highway
program. There is much in history
connected with the section Mr.. Space
represented because in the early days
it was the rich mining sections of the
Idaho country and pilgrimages were
made from practically all sections of
the United States to seek fortunes in
the placer grounds of that section.
There is still mining in the Pierce
City country and there is a wealth of
timber that probably no section in
the United States excels.
Mr.. Space is devoting his time to
agricultural pursuits but is much in
terested in highway work and during
the past two years his section has
spent more than half of a million

JOHANNESBURG, March Is (Associated

The Government troops surrounded the

impression OF observers OF the battle.
Everywhere khaki clad soldiers We're
mingling with the blue uniforms OF the
police. Machine guns and ambulances
were seen everywhere. and shells ana
bullets were whistling over the heads OF
the spectators.
While the battle was at its height
there was n counter demonstration on
the other side OF Johannesburg, az Jep-
pes, where an armored train dealt with
hostile parties.
The Premier, Gen. Smuts with his
staff, was stationed at a point from
which every movement of the Govern

The bombardment for the first quar-
ter of an hour was mostly carried OUT
by the Brixton guns; then the guns
from the town side opened up a raking
fire on the Fordsburg market square.
and the burghers gradually crept up,
tightening the circle of advancing
troops. A quiet, steady advance of the
infantry secured the main streets and
enabled the motor cars to bring troops.

COVERING BOOSTS
COTTON MARKET
Late Movement Lifts Prices to
Close Of IL to II Points
Net Higher.

The feature OF yesterdays cotton
market was late shoxt covering that
lifted prices about IL to Is points from
Fridays final bids and left them IL to
II points net higher at its finish. There
were several reasons for the market 5
late display OF firmness, chief among
which were, probably. reports from the
South that heavy Texas rains were ex-
pected over Sunday. Other factors in
Guided continued strength and activity
OF securities and optimistic reports from
Manchester. which led many to look for
improvement in Liverpool tomorrow.
The market opened slightly heavy and
unsettled. rejecting immediate bearish-
ness OF the weather map, which caused
q little scattered local liquidation. Prices
eased off about 3 to 10 points In the first
half hour before enough buying devel-
oped to result in a recovery. Bulls
placed considerable stress on the fact
that shipboard figures of cotton await
ing clearance were big and forecast
heavy exports for the week beginning
tomorrow. More than 10000 bales were
cleared yesterday.
Weekly statistics generally were ig-
nored. Bears talked of decreased spin
ners' takings, but on the whole figures
were regarded as a standoff. Final re-
ports from Fall River estimated total
sales of print cloths for the week at
80. 900 pieces and placed total curtail-
ment at $4,000 pieces Marshall Field,
Chicago. stated that wholesale dry
goods distribution had increased. al
though it was not as large az 1t was
in the corresponding week OF 1921.
The local spot market was quiet and
steady, 10 points net higher at 1906
cents for middling. The New Orleans
market was quiet. unchanged at 1915
cents.

TRADE IS
BETTER, SAYS RASKOB
General Motors Sales Double
in 1922, He Says.

DETROIT, April s.-Present conditions
In the automobile industry are better
than in many other lines Of business, ac-
cording to j. j. Raskob. chairman OF the
finance committee of the General Motors
Corporation. in an address before its Of
ficers in Detroit Mr.. Raslob presented
figures showing the number of cars re-
tired from service during the last year
as contrasted with theoretical estimates
of the number which should have been
discarded
THE average life OF an automobile is
five to six years" he said. and judging
from the total OF cars previously manu-
featured, we estimate that there should
have disappeared from service in 1921
about 100000 automobiles. The actual
number Withdrawn, a. Indicated by reg
istration. was only abe 100000. IL TO
the 1900 900 AUTOMOBILES, which have
TO be replaced annually. we were 70 add
500. 900 cars TO cover additional require
ments of old and new users, II would
give a total OF ZOO 900 cars which we
think is a very conse vative estimate n.
the annual production which viii
iequired in the industry. This shows
what the future has in store for wal
es Ia blished companies"
Mr. Raskob pointed out that in the
first quarter OF 1922 the number of cars
sold by his company was practically
double that OF the corresponding period
OF 1921 and that the production curve
continues upward.
