president OF the club, declared.

The hurried conference OF Yam
kee officials was prompted by the
miserable showing OF the club
during the present road trip
where eight games i'm succession
were lost ut one stage Of the
proceedings and the team played
less than 800 baseball.
Supreme indifference to what
transpired on the ball field and abb
sorbed interest in affairs extraneous
TO baseball, II not actually inimical

the slump.
Indeed, correspondents with the
team have sent back tales purport.
ing to prove that the conduct of
the Yankees during the Western
trip just closed was the scandal OF
the league. 1t is. moreover, sig.
nificant that when Judge Lands
started out to read the riot act to
the various clubs throughout both
circuits. he opened the tour with
q talk to the Yankees. The Red
Sox, perforce. were also present

Huggins stopped off here for
the conference, en- route TO Wash

that the good Miller was to 70.
Instead. the Yankee owners mere
ly wished to inform their manager

forcing discipline and that they

the chamber of commerce, with the assistance of c. B. Wilson and I. B. Koch, for Ford Harvey, head of the great Harvey system, Mr. Jacobsen of Los Angeles, who has direct super vision over Harvey houses in this division; V. Patrosa, his assistant; R.. Hunter Clarkson, investigator of new propositions and general field assist ant; Mr. Shirley, manager of the transportation department at Grand Canyon, and Colonel W. w. Crosby, superintendent of the Grand Canyon National Park, resulted in a real heart rt-to-heart affair which will have far reaching results for the future of Flagstaff.
 Colonel Crosby, superintendent of the Grand Canyon National Park, said he was glad to have this opportunity of meeting with the business men nf Flagstaff. While he felt he was something of a tourist, in the sens 3 of trying to see all things worth while, he was greatly surprised at the maly things of great interest surrounding Flagstaff which he had heard of for the first time at this meeting.
 He advises the hearty cooperation of all concerned in making the Maine Grand Canyon road year-round-road and complimented the people on hay ing done as much as they have in concentrating their efforts along that line. He declared this was the best year-round climate he had ever en- joyed and so advised his friends. Col onel Crosby promised his enthusiastic support as far as his official powers would permit. His talk made splen- did impression on his hearers, who felt the sincerity of his desire to help in developing this section of the state.
 Mir. Harvey when called upon, said that while he had gone over the sub ject in detail with Mir. Riordan at Grand Canyon he was pleased to give his position and that of his organi- zation in an informal way. He first outlined the workings of the vast liar vey system and its connections with the Santa Fe railroad. While he might have his individual influence, final dan;e;o,,, ~>~+~l --:th- " ,5s' .N'-.

velop first, for their first duty was in catering to railroad passenger traf- fife. There was one thing he said he could guarantee and that was that the Harvey system would not attempt to enter into competition with any local enterprise in the way of hotels, but would guarantee their hearty support and assistance to local people in any such enterprise. The development of tourist travel was so rapid that it had been almost impossible to keep pace with it and furnish the necessary ac- eommodations. Last year there were over S4,000 visitors at Grand Canyon and in all probability it would reach 10000 during the coming year. Most tourists only spent one day there. By making their stay more interesting he felt they could be kept longer to the benefit of the tourist as well as Arizona. A new system of pictures were now in process of development showing scenic points of interest in all other parks and he would be glad to have as many such pictures of in- terest about Flagstaff incorporated in this system, provided they were pass ed upon and accepted through Mir. Clarkson's department. The services of MT. ClarksOn and Mr. Shirley were freely offered in collecting such data and pictures. The three outstanding things, declared Mr. Harvey, are good roads, providing suitable and comfort able accommodations then plenty of the right kind of publicity. Get down to brass Jacks and we are with you; our interests are identical with yours. When you have concreted the idea let me know and I'll see that it goes to the right man for investigation and action. Mir. Harvey's straight for ward unequivocal statements were re- ceived with much applause. The prop CT method of procedure was what the Flagstaff business men wanted and it was given to them by Mir. Harvey.
 Father Vabre gave an interesting talk on early day conditions here and the wonderful development of auto traffic in the past few years. He was followed along the same line by F. s. Breen and the meeting adjourn ed after a rousing good talk by c. B. Wilson, who hit the nail on the head with the statement that it was unfair and unjust to attempt to bring more people to Flagstaff until they could be properly accommodated.
 Flagstaff had about reached the peak. More accommodations were ' . 2 Ns fss. Has q

complishments that has ever been brought to continuation, and upon be- ing ratified by the states and the federal government, will bring about immediate development of the splen- did resources of that wonderful river which for decades has been wasting itself to the sea.
 It is no idle threat as has been as sumed by some that the compact be- tween states having invested rights in and to the waters of the river is not necessary at this time, for l believe that without the cooperation and as sistance of all the states in the basin it will be an impossibility to obtain from the federal government suffi- cient funds with which to build the absolutely necessary storage dam or dams before any wuture use can be made of these waters.
 Private enterprise for such power dams as the Grand project at Dia- mond creek will not be warranted in making an investment of the tens of millions of dollars without co-opera- tion and assistance of all really exist ing federal agencies, not to mention the certain legal interference that is bound to come from those states re- ceiving no direct or indirect benefits from such investments.
 It is my firm and honest belief that the people of the state will endorse the general idea of mutual under standing between the states, and the next legislature will ratify the com pact.

 "No," replied the young man, "l never did. Are they good to eat"
 "Yes, they're good to eat, if you know how to cook 'em. You see, you put the loon in kettle of boiling wa ter and set it on the stove. Then you drops a flatiron in it, and when the fatiron is done, tn loon is ready to eat"
