NATIONAL FOREST MONEY
 FOR SCHOOLS AND ROADS

The sum of $69,548.76 is being turned over by the forest service to the Arizona state officials to be plac- ed in the state school and road fund, according to Frank c. w. Pooler, dis trict forester, in charge of the four teen national forests of Arizona and New Mexico.
 Governors of 2S states have just been notified that in accordance with federal law 25 per cent of the $3,421, : 531 received from timber sales, graz ing permits and other sources of nat ional forest revenue for the past fis- cal year will be distributed by the forest service, U. s. department of agriculture. These moneys are re- turned to states in which national for ests are located for expenditure upon schools and roads.
 An additional 10 per cent of the to- tai receipts is spent each year by the forest service for the construction of roads and trails within the forests. This sum for the present year amounts to $27,S19.50 for Arizona. While the primary purpose of road and trail building within the forests is for better administration of the for ests and better protection against forest fires, many outlying commun- ities as we'll as individual settlers are greatly benefited by them and sys- tenn of good mountain roads and trails is being gradually built up.
 The school and road fund that is to be divided, aggregates over a million dollars. It will be prorated among the 28 states in proportion to the re- ceipts from the national forests To- cated in them. Since the establish ment of the national forests the sums returned to these states have stead fly increased and now reach total of almost IA million dollars that has been contributed directly to the de- velopment of the states by the nat ional forests within their borders.
 Arizona according to gross receipts from national forests and amounts to be given over to state treasuries stands fourth in the list of states that are included in the division of national forest money at this time. California, where federal timber lands returned to the government $628,765 during the past year, leads the list and will re- ceive $157,191. New Mexico is eighth with $44,975 as her share of the dis tribution for schools and roads.

SECRETARY FALL ASKS
 FOR $47l,OOO FOR THE
 GRAND CANYON ROADS

Colonel w. w. Crosby, superinten- dent of the Grand Canyon National park, is very much pleased with the recommendation of Secretary Fall that $471 ,000 be appropriated for the improvement of roads within the Grand Canyon park and in writing of 1t in detail, tells The Sun:
 It seems that Secretary Fall has felt that in the large appropriations from the national treasury for road improvement, the park service is en- titled to a share for the benefit of the roads within the national parks, on grounds similar to those on which the forest service shares in these road appropriations. Secretary Fall has, therefore, submitted to the bureau of the budget, a program for road cca- struction in the national parks, and estimates for a total expenditure of $7,296,000 toward this end in three annual appropriations beginning with fiscal year 1924.
 The program for Grand Canyon National Park is for the improvement of 124 miles of road at cost of $471,- 900. The roads embraced in the above are:
 1-The Hermit Rim road extends from the Fl Tovar to Hermits Rest, a distance of eight miles along the south rim. When it was constructed a num- Der of years ago by the Santa Fe railroad, an unsuccessful attempt was made to surface it with a friable limestone, water-bound, macadam and subsequently, an attempt was made to put on bituminous bound cinder top which was far from successful. The upkeep of this road is source of ex- pense and the results are far from satisfactory. The park service paved very short distance with bituminous bound rock macadam and secured equipment, etc, last year for paving the rest of the road in similar man. ner. This road is subjected to heavy traffic throughout the entire year, and a well-maintained or permanent surface on it is absolutely necessary.
 2-Grand Canyon (El Tovar) to Maine road entrance. The Maine road entrance is the main entrance to the park from the south. The Maine road is now being improved by Coconino county to take the place of other roads from Williams and from Flag

ON GROWING OLD

(The following, the favorite poem of our friend, A. w. Kinsey, is pub lished at his request.) A little more tired at close of day; A little less anxious to have our way; A little less ready to scold and blame, A little more care for a brother s
 name; And so we are nearing the journeys Where time and eternity meet and
 blend. A little less care for bonds and gold, A little more zest in the days of old, A broader view and a saner mind, And little more love for all man.
 kind; And so we are faring down the way That leads to the gates of a better
 day. A little more love for the friends of
 youth, A little less zeal for established truth, A little more charity in our views, A little less thirst for the daily news; And so we are folding our tents away And passing in silence at close of
 day. A little more leisure to sit and dream, A little more real the things unseen, A little nearer to those ahead, With visions of those long loved and
 dead; And so we are going where all must
 go, To the place the living must never
 know. A little more laughter, few more
 tears, And we shall have told our increasing
 years; The book is closed, and the prayers
 are said, And we are part of the countless
 dead. Thrice happy, then, if some soul can
 say: q live because he has passed my
 way"

WILL NOT RESTORE SANTA FEE
 HEADQUARTERS AT PRESCOTT

The possibility of restoring to Pres colt northern Arizona division head quarters of the Santa Fe coast lines is remote, it was said by T. G. Nor ris, of local counsel for the railroad, in an interview recently. MT. Norris stated that while the good will of the Santa Fe coast lines in Los Angeles was assuredly for Prescott, economic conditions of the railroad which in other ways would work to the advan- tage of Prescott and northern Arizona make it impossible to move headquar- ters from Winslow.

In addition to the above, through
 Campbell, justice court fines of sI,.
 220 have been collected; superior
 court fines of $1,975; civil fees of { $876.40; licenses, $1,345, and he has
 returned to owners stolen property to
 the value of S11,390.
 There has been much talk of ex-
 pense. The fact is that, even with
 the greater number of cases handled,
 CampbelPs annual expense has been
 just about the same as Harrington s
 while he was sheriff, and about a thousand dollars a year more than Dickinson's. That, when in three
 months less than two years he has sent nearly twice as many criminals
 to the penitentiary as they did in four years! Nor is that any structure on his predecessors. Campbell came in at the time when, as everyone knows, crime wave, following the war, was sweeping over the entire country.
 Last winter, Mike Cassidy, the fed eral prohibition enforcement officer for this state, was quoted as saying that two sheriffs in the southern part of the state were the only ones who were properly enforcing the liquor laws. The Sun objected editorially to that statement and asserted that it was not in accordance with the facts, and made the claim that Campbell of Coconino and Mahoney of Mohave were doing as much in that direction as any other sheriffs in the state. The Sun made the statement then that Cassidy had never been in the north- ern part of the state and didn't know what he was talking about.
 A few weeks ago, Cassidy having had more time in which to become acquainted with conditions all through the state and having got in thorough touch with the work being done by all the sheriffs, published the unqualified statement that Campbell of Coconino and Mahoney of Mohave were the two best sheriffs in Ari- zona as far as enforcement of the liquor laws is concerned.
 Doubtless Campbell's administra- tive expense would have been consid- erably lower per month and per year than that of either of his predecessors but for the Nash murder case. The cost of that, including court expense and rewards, was S14,000, of which $9,333.15 was directly charged to the sheriff's office. Witnesses were brought from five different states and hunted for in several others.
 If the same system were in vogue here as in most of the other counties of Arizona, only S2,333.15 would have been charged to the sheriff's office in the Nash case. In nearly all of the counties there is separate fund for prosecution and the prosecution of all criminal cases is charged to that fund and does not show against the sheriff. But in this county the sher- if has to bear the cost of arresting man and also the cost of his prosecu- tion.
 The criminal work in this county during Campbells administration as sheriff has outranked, as far as num- Der of men convicted is concerned, ev- cry other county in the state except Maricopa, which has a population sev- eral times as large as ours.
 Aside from criminal cases, during the eighteen months 180 civil papers have been served.
 The above record of 52 penitentiary sentences does not include the three men sentenced a few days ago.

OVER PRICE OF
 TAMALES ENDS IN KILLING

Walter Anderson was shot and kill ed Saturday morning following an ar gument with Henry Brown over the price of tamales. Brown told police officers he fired when Anderson reached for gun, after having threatened to "get him." Both are negroes. Anderson was shot in the head. The bullet split, physicians said, one fragment passing through his scalp. Anderson lived for nine hours after having been shot.
 Anderson was beaten almost to death several months ago by two white men whom he had offered to carry from Fairbank to Bisbee. The men, who were arrested in Fl Paso, pleaded guilty and each was sentenc- ed to serve 20 years in the state pris- on at Florence.

CAMPBELL'S RECORD AS SHERIFF OUTRANKSTHAT
 OF ANY OTHER IN STATE

| On the basis of sheer efficiency
 Sheriff w. A. Campbell of Coconinc county, Arizona, is entitled to re. election.
 He was elected to enforce the laws wherever possible to secure the con. viction of those breaking the laws. Has he made good? He has during q months sent 52 men to state prison. In the four years preceding, Sheriffs Dickenson and Harrington, only sent 31 men to state prison.
 These figures are from official rec ords. They are correct. Campbell be- lieved the people elected him sheriff because they wanted the laws enforc- ed. He believes that is why there is such as office as sheriff. If we don't want the laws enforced, why have sheriff? Why, for that mat ter, have any laws?
 When he took office he swore he would do all in his power to fill that office conscientiously, to give the best in him for the purpose for which he was elected. That has been his daily program ever since. Whenever there were duties to perform, he saw that they were performed, at once, with all the power and energy and care pos sible. He has been on the job, night and day. No trip too hard, no job too arduous, no clue or trail too obscure to turn him back.
 And almost without exception whenever the sheriff or his officers have gone out after man they have got him. Campbell himself got Nash, the murderer. He himself got Jami- son, the cooperative stores stock salesman. He found Tanner, dead out on the desert. And so the story goes. With Bill Campbell on the trail, the man he was after was practically as good as found.
 Here is the actual official record of the sheriff's office during the last 21 months, since Campbell took office following his election two years ago. Read it over and see whether he has made good:

GROUND TO PIECES AS HE
 TRIES TO BOARD TRAIN

Walter Farmer, a native of Santa Rosa, N. M., was ground to pieces under the wheels of freight train at the north end of the railroad yards in Winulow last week. Farmer had attempted to board the train when he slipped and fell under the train. He was young man about 27 years of age, barber by trade and a stranger in Winslow.

HARD QUESTION

Why do they call roadster "chum- my" just because you have to crawl through the carburetor to get into the auxiliary seat?'

The statement has sometimes been made that most of Campbell's cases were bootlegging cases.
 Not one of the 52 men sent to the state penitentiary was sent there for bootlegging. That disposes of that.

SKYSCHAPER BUILT ON STILLS
New York Architects Are Putting Up
E.g Structure With Seemingly
Slender Supports.

A great, complicated skyscraper is
being built in New York under unusual
conditions, directly above the railroad
tracks of busy terminal. The tracks
running beneath its walls in some
places are double-decked, so that trains
pass on two levels through the base
ment Of the building. The entire struc-
ture rests upon slender stills, extending
between the tracks down to. bedrock.
A unique method has been found for
isolating these uprights so that the
constant rumbling Of heavy trains on
both levels causes not the slightest
j vibration in the building above.
This construction, including the dig
ging for the foundation and the erec-
tion Of the building, is being carried
on without affecting the movement Of
trains beneath. The entire weight Of
the skyscraper rests upon the sup
ports rising between the tracks, which
are spacel in the usual way. Although
capable Of supporting 20 or more
stories, these stills seem surprisingly
slender. Both track levels beneath
the building are remarkably free from
distractions, SO that engineers have a
clear view of other tracks to either
side. .-~r !,
1t was at first believed that only
structures of six or eight stories could
be. safely supported on such founda-
tions. A series Of tests, including the
measurements Of vibration caused by
the passing Of trains, proved that
buildings could safely be raised to 70
stories on these supports. Excava-
tions for foundations have been car
ried down until the beams rest upon
solid rock. The whole operation has
been carried on without upsetting train
schedules.
Each column supporting the building
Is completely isolated. 1t is not enough
to keep it from touching the founda-
lions on which the tracks lie. 1t also
must be protected by vibration mats
from the rock on which it rests, so
that vibrations from passing trains
will not affect
