NAVY YARD CUT
NOT NECESSARY
Representative Hull Favors
Giving Contract Work
To Idle Men.

There was no need to lay off our
navy yard forces" Representative
Harry f. Hull, of Iowa, told the
Anacostia Citizens Association and
Board of Trade last night.
He questioned the wisdom of Civ
ing government contracts to pri-
vate firms for work that could be
done cheaper at the navy yard by
using the force laid off recently.
He discussed the Muscle Shoals
PROJECT. saying the government
would be forced either to accept
the offer of Henry Ford or else
complete the structure itself. Such
valuable asset cannot be left
idle" said he.
THE association went on record
as favOring the early replacement
of the Pennsylvania avenue bridge
over AnacOstia River with a struc-
ture both safe and sufficient
\ resolution favoring an appro-
priation to complete the proposed
new conduit from Great Falls was
passed. The association also ia
vored free high school text books
and more books for the grammar
schools. William J. Latimer pre-

The announcement Of Harry II.
Atkinson. Republican candidate for
Acknowledgement, appears in to-day's
issue. Mr.. Atkinson was admitted to
the bar in Nevada in 1906 and locat-
ed at Tonopah. In 1916 he was elect
ed District Attorney Of Nye County
and served in that capacity for two
terms, in which time he secured con-
victions in all criminal cases except
two.
He prevented the junking of the
Bullfrog-Goldfeld railroad south of
Goldfeld, and collected unpaid bull
lion taxes from the large mining COM
panies.
He paid particular attention to all
civil matters pertaining to county af-
fairs and prevented useless large ex-
penditures on criminal actions.
He saved $1,000 in interest to the
county by inducing bond holders to
surrender their bonds before they
we're due, and in many other ways
protected the interests Of the taxpay-
ers.
On this record of efficiency and
service Mr.. Atkinson ome before
the people for election as Attorney
General, and IL elected promises to
give the same careful, conscientious
application to the public affairs of
the people of Nevada as he did to the
business of Nye County.
AS an attorney. Atkinson is recog-
nized as one of the best in the State,
thus being ably equipped to fill the
Office of Attorney-General,s IAN official
who will be called upon to compete
against the best legal talent the DUN
try affords. He is a graduate of Stan
ford law school, and worked his way
through that institution. During his
four years at college he worked va
cations in the Office Of the Surveyor
General at Salt Lake City, using the
money thus earned to meet the ex-
penses of gaining an education.

o HAPPY OVER
NEW WAGE ACCEPTANCE

AS a result Of acceptance Of a
counter : proposal, all men in the
mines at Tonopah were to go to
work Tuesday morning on the basis
of o 50-cent increase to the under
ground workers and a ascent in
crease to top men. The agreement
signed will govern as long as silver
remains at one dollar an ounce, with
no increase or cut permitted, a Tono-
pah special dispatch to the Reno
Journal says. The agreement is to
take effect October IT.
Surface employees will receive the
raise of rs cents voluntarily offered
by the mining companies last week.
The new agreement cancels the or
iginal offer. which was to be effective
from the first of the month.
A feeling of optimism and good
will pervades the camp. The miners
voted to accept a 50-cent advance.
while their committee advised them
that the matter was not yet settled,
everyone felt the trouble was over.
The good feeling was shown by
staging a baseball game in the after
noon between the American and
Mexican employees, in the which the
latter won by a score of 3 to 2.
