Thousands Trying
to Dope Out Name
for Walking ia,

More than 5000 persons have SUBJ
mitted suggestions for a name for
the reckless automobile driver in the
contest being held by the American
Automobile association. The contest,
designed to tag" the reckless motor
ist with a distinguishing name SINH
lar to that of Jay walker for the
careless pedestrian, will end May Is.
In addition to the thousands of
suggested names submitted, the A.
A. A. has received hundreds of let
ters setting forth the writer's ideas
of reckless drivers and intimating
that an appropriate name cannot be
placed upon them, by reason of the
limitation of the postal laws. How
ever, enough good suggestions have
been received to make it almost cer-
tain that the reckless motorist will
take his place with the "jay walker"
shortly after the contest closes.
The most appropriate name will be
selected by a committee OF promi-
nent Washington citixens The names
will be arranged alphabetically. with
only number to identify them with
the letter containing the name of the
contestant. None OF the judges will
see these letters until after the award
is made.
The winner will receive $25 in gold
and certain sections have promised
additional rewards provided the win
ner comes from that section. Thr
judges will be announced within the
next week.

FUTURE Of GAS

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 20
(Special) al)-Something a great deal,
indeed, has go to be done about the
future fuel supply. the petroleum sec
tion of the American Chemical So
ciety has decided.
If automobiles are to continue in
common use and their lumber null
tiplied; Il the aeroplane and other
forms of aircraft are to be developed,
and if small compact engines are to
be widely used in the many ways
that they are now being used, earnest
effort to find fuel supply must be
made.
The pet loleum section of the Amer
lean Chemical society, at It's meet
ing in Birmingham, Ala. the first
week in April. faced this problem
squarely and admitted that the men
to tackle this problem are the Amer
lean chemists.
DR.. Van II Manning, former chief
of the bureau of mines. now director
of research of the American Pc
troleum institute, outlined the things
that will have to be done. The Sec
ton agreed that a special research
committee to deal with these prob
lens should be appointed.

These problems, as seen by the

include:
1. Preparation Of rational specifi-
cations for petroleum. products; these

rational vclatibility specifications for

desirable
2, Standardization OF analytical

products testing and analysis.
3. Utilization Of wider range of
motor fuels in mobile types OF en-
gines (autos, trucks, tractors. etc.
4. More efficient utilization Of the
heavy oils in Diesel and other engines

SAYS OPERATOR
NEED EDUCATION
ON TRUCK NEEDS

AS illustrating the need of eduea-
ton among operators of motor trucks
w. l.. Day. president and general
mnager OF General Motors Truck
company, Pontias. Mich. tells the
story OF a complaint that proved en-
tirely groundless.
I'm the design Of the GMC engine"
said Mr.. Day, 1--WE made every effort
to provide lubricating system that
would insure the most perfect lubri-
cation of all working parts and at
the same time be economical in its oil
consumption. Oil is forced under
constant high pressure to all the vital
parts of the engine, protecting them
with a fresh film of lubricant, pre-
venting actual metal to- metal con-
tact, reducing the friction and keep
Ing the working parts COOL After the
oil has circulated through the engine
II flows back down into the oil reser-
voir and Is again circulated, after
having been thoroughly cleaned.
I'VE go the limit TO insure a per-
feet circulation of the lubricant, at
the same time utilizing it as econo-
Ynically as possible, so when one Of
our Chicago owners reported that his
engine was not getting any oil the
branch manager was quite surprised,
The customer was told to send his
truck in and very careful test was
made. The entire system was checked
up, the test showed the oil was circu-
lating and everything was found to
be In perfect order
Upon questioning the owner fur
ther 1t developed that his complaint,
although made in perfectly good faith
was based wholly on the fact that
because 1t had not been necessary 10
replenish the oil he had naturally
assumed that the engine was not re-

l, the I. W. W. would come marching into the state at about the same time to take over the industries of Arizona under the leadership of their gover- nor. But will that exodus take place. Well, hardly. Campbell and his fol- lowers will grin a little sheepishly and remark to one another: "Wonder what was wrong? That Red bunk worked two years ago but it fell per fectly flat this time" They will then proceed to go about business as usual with the possible exception of the Governor.
 No, there won't be any exodus for the next two years, not even a forced one like that at Bisbee. Worknan's lives and rights will not be held any cheaper than those of their bosses dur ing the Hunt administration. There will be one law for all and that law will protect all, equally, regardless of wealth or class. Democracy will reign again.

THE DEMOCRATIC LANDSLIDE

The overwhelming democratic land slide of Tuesday leaves the republi- can politicians of the state still gasp ing and blinking. They thought that they were getting away with the big line of bunk and empty promises which they were peddling and they still find it hard to realize that the public did not swallow their line Arizona has had enough of the rule of the few and will now enjoy two years of rule by the people, thru represent atives who really represent them.
 How easy it was for the republi- cans to blame the democratic admin istration for everything two years ago! They knew they were unfair in this and that it was the aftermath of war and not the democratic party that was to blame for conditions They did not look two years ahead to the time when the very attacks they were making would come back as a boomerang against the republican administration. The reaction came alright. When conditions grew rap idly worse under republican rule the public came to realize how they had l been buncoed and the reaction was It has come and alk is | we'll.

Saturday, November II, we com memorate the cessation of hostjIities in this most terrible of wars. It is fitting that on that day we turn our thoughts to the victorious contest put ur by our sons under arms, that we honor our soldiers living and dead, and that we rededicate ourselves to help bear the trust imposed in our nation that we may lead humanity to a broader freedom and a nobler civ ilization.

Can you not again sense the thrill of joy which on that day convulsed our nation from ocean to ocean! Let not the passing years dull our gratitude to our warriors, nor our devotion to the great princi- pies for which those who failed to re- turn laid down their lives.

Spud Digging Weather Again

The election went off to suit the great majority of the farmers as is attested by the heavy vote which Ex- governor Hunt boiled in all the coun- try districts. Along with that and, no doubt, largely as a consequence the weather has warmed and cleared and the farmers are again busy digg- ing spuds. For awhile it looked as tho the loss in spuds was going to be extremely heavy due to the sudden cold weather, but the prospect is a little more encouraging at present. However it is November, and even a democratic administration cannot be expected to hold off cold weather for long at this time of year so it be- hooves the farmer 10 get busy and dig as never before if they are to save the potatoes that are still in the ground.

FOURTH OF

After term of enjoying the bene- fits of peace and with the terrible world conf1agration of war subdued to occasional small outbursts here and there where the dying embers still possess enough life to be whip ped into small blazes by cross wind it seems hard to realize that only four short years have lapsed since hatred, famine, pestilence and war held all humanity in their fell embrace.

than by the span of few short years
 Yet it was but four years ago that
 two millions of our sons battled OF foreign soil to keep back a foe whose
 ambition it was to hold the entire i world under his iron rule. The Howe, of our nation faced torture, n1aimine and death that free government might
 survive-that democracy might en- 1 dure. The defense of the rights of i free men called for the sacrifice of
 Americas sons and American moth
 crhood yielded the human sacrifice
 sorrowfully, though willingly. And democracy endured. The op- pressor was driven back and subdued.
 Our sons turned the tide of war and civilization triumphed!
 Yet some there are who ask, "Did it pay?", Was it worth the cost?"
 America alone made the sacrifice purely for humanity's sake-her own humanity included. America alone, asked no part in the spells of war. We fought that the despoiler's hand might be stayed before it reached our shore, to be sure, but we fought also to wrest that hand from its hold upon nations already in it's grasp-to save Belgium, to repay France; and that free nations might survive and de- mocracy endure. Our help turned the tide and crushed the despoiIer. We ask no more.
 It seems little hard that our AL lies of yesterday should now revile us, declaring that we are "dollar mad"; that we fought only to save ourselves; that our sacrifice was in significant; that we are a nation of profiteers enriched by the war, and that the height of our callousness is reached when we suggest payment of the loan made to the Allies. It does seem little hard to be heaped with calumny where we looked for some degree of gratitude. But what of that. Twas not for praise from those whom we aided, that we fought, l Twas not that we might be lauded | as the defenders of democracy and | the saviors of free people, that our sons died on the fields of France The oppressor was defeated, free na- ions were saved and democracy en- lures. In that is our reward. Our ooys did not die in vain
 When history rewritten fifty years rom now, after the mists and jealous es and hatreds have dissipated, the 'reat part played by America will be by a freer world and a lappier humanity.

 Crop Progress in Arizona.
 Arriving nearly a month ahead of average. the first killing frost of the season in most southern and central valleys, that of November 4th and 9th established two records: the earliest frost and new minimum temperatures for those dates. Coming so early the cold weather did considerable damage. This was especially true of the rank cotton grown in the low damp areas; there but a relatively small per cent had opened and a large proportion of the unopened bolls were immature; such cotton suffered sever ly. Most growers in the higher dis tricts report their cotton we'll matur- ed, more so than average and accord ingly little damaged. The short staple men voice the opinion that the freeze is all they needed to open up the bolls nearly all of which are ripe beyond the point of injury. The cold, windy weather slowed up pick ing operations and in places whipped the locks out of the husIls making the picking more difficult. More than half of the crop is now harvested.

 Yours very truly,
 "F. M. WILMOT,
 Manager It will be recalled that Henry Red wine died from gas encountered while digging a cess pool for J. J. Gilson at the Williams Garage. Herb ert Gilson descended into the cess pool in an attempt to bring up Red wine, but was overcome. By a mir acle his foot caught in the rope and he was drawn to the surface by that foot. Shorty" Ladd next went down, after testing the we'll with light. The light burned when sent to the bottom. Ladd tied the rope about Redwine but as the body was drawn up from the cinders which partly cov- cred it, additional gas seemed to be freed and Shorty was overcome. Henry Sorrell descended into the we'll and brought up Shorty, suffering but little from the gas himself.
 It has been suggested that the cit zens of Williams should raise a fund and present to Ladd as due recogni- ion of his bravery.

Wheat CertificatiOn

If there are any men in Bates county
who sowed pure wheat seed and want
it tested and certified by the Missouri
Corn Growers Association they are
urged to notify the county agent at
the earliest possible date.
A specialist from the College of Ag-
riculture will be sent out to test this
wheat in field and again after it is
threshed. 1t should be borne in mind
that this inspection costs you nothing.
If your field is found pure as to type
and if after wheat harvest the grain
passes an approved terminating test,
the grower is entitled to the privi-
lege of having his name placed on the
list with certified growers. This list
is sent all over the state and will adj
vertise your wheat free.
While there is no charge for the in
spection fee of $1.00 is made for the
termination test and to cover the cost
of distribution of the certified grow
ers list.
