If the change is made, Main

course of the session.
In replying TO the offer of assist

In an interesting paper on Legal
Education and Admission to the Bar.
George w. Nelson of Prescott set
forth the necessity of requiring

A. O'Conner of Santa Cruz, and an
other paper which added to the value
OF the convention was delivered by
| G. II. Rutherford Of Jerome. who took
| Disarmament" as his subject.
| The association went on record as
! favoring an increase in the salaries
/ of the Judges, it being the genera
| opinion among the lawyers present
/ that the judges of this state are the
most overworked and the most poorly
paid OF all public officials. 1t alst
| developed that the association felt i
to be very important to the state a
large that the terms ot office of thu
judges be heightened. There wa:

proper length of term. although the.

PAY UP WEEK TO
AID IN RESTORING
GOOD TIMES HERE

Periods OF so-called business de-
preston have one redeeming feature
in that they bring home to m;aly
people the realization of our depend
ence upon one another for success in
any line. Even the independently
wealthy discover that when a gem
eral business depression comes, their
dividends decrease and sometimes
stop, interest is not paid, and values
drop. Consequently, even wealth does
not remove anyone from the welfare
of their community and the pros
perity OF one is influenced by the
prosperity of all.
This is especially true in a COM
real prosperity that does not create
better conditions for everyone and
no depression which does not make
itself felt to all classes.
"PAY-UP WEEK" in Phoenix Is a
community effort to create better
conditions for everybody. If this
movement meets with an enthusiastic
CO. operation by everyone. everyone
will gain by it and the measure of
it's beneficial results will be in like
proportion. 1t is therefore urged
that every citizen lend not only his
or her own support to this move
ment, but that they also encourage
others to 90 the same. II the large
sum of money that is now represent
ed on the books of our local firms in
charge accounts can be released into
the active channels of business again.
prosperity must Immediately follow
that will rebound to the benefit of
everyone in our community
In sponsoring the "PAY-UP
WEEK" in Phoenix, during February
20-25, the Merchants and Manufac-
turers' association feels that 1t is
fathering the simplest and most eff
fective movement for loosening up
the strained avenues OF credit. The
multiplied power of circulating
money is far greater than many peo-
pie seem to realize and "PAY-UP
WEEK" will demonstrate how much
community can do for itself with
strong and concerted effort in the
right direction.

chants and Manufacturers associa-
