 No action had been taken in the matter, but today wire from Governor Thomas F. Campbell stated that this bill has many provision absolutely nimca to Arizonas interests.
 The local chamber knows full well that no Arizollan wants Arizona get the worst of it. and the local body is preparing protest to send to our two senators and congressman on the matter.

MUST CHANGE TACTICS

The Western Highway Builder the leading maga- zine of its kind in America whose editorials highway matters of the fright from the shoulder variety rips the Bankhead Highway convention held in Phoenix last April from stem steTr and fully agree with the expressions of it's editor Phil Townsend Hanna who present and attended the meeting.
 From Mr. Hanna's description of the Phoenix gath erng it exception to the rllle-it bunk and more bunk
 highway convention that fails to devote it's time matters pertaining to highway construction and matters akin thereto but which devotes its time the past history of certain politicians of descendants of |. S. Grant Jeff Davis the blue blood in him. Is but lot of bunk and absolutely repugnant the people who tend such convention for what 1t should stand for to exchange ideas road building and kindred matters.
 Going back let us take for instance the Hot Springs. Arkansas convention. Instead of road matters. the speeches and all movements i'll relation to the meeting confined almost exclusively to promoting the poli tica activities of several has been" and would be- politicians and gathering in of the sheckles from nva show under the auspices of The Bankhead Highway Association.
 When one compare sthe businessike management, the eaestness of purpose and general management of the Old Spanish Trails Association, he is forced to the conclusion that if the Bankhead Highway Association is become power for good i'll it's field then its tactics must be radically changed and the good people of the towns the Bankhead Highway must see that change has been made from ''hOt air life membership affair to real constructive organization
 The Bankhead Highway Association be made. too big thing to slip into the discard.

NATIONAL SILVER LEAGUE

X national silver league has been formed and con ventons of those interested in the white metal plan ned at San Francisco, Denver and Chicago
 The organization is of importance to all mining in terests in western states The promoters in their nomcement make this statement:
 'Silver when unrestricted by hostile legislation, is world. ' sln
 'The United States, the producer of 40 per cent of the worlds silver and the American continent the producer of 90 per cent thereof ought not in its teress and the larger interest of humanity ill general longer submit to have this great world asset left to the selfish manipulation of nations which produce little silver.
 The characterization of silver forced upon the world by certain European influences for selfish political poses has occasioned to the United States general and the silver mining industry in particular, direct loss in the value of its silver product of more than billion of dollars, and indirect loss that is incalculabe.
 "It has enabled few London brokers, chartered by the crown to manipulate the price to render the s yer mining industry throughout the American nations producing the bulk of the silver of the world and marked with countless disasters The securing to silver its proper place in the development of the world is a matter of the highest importance at this tme."
