WHO PAYS
THE FREIGHT?

The wide margain between the
price received by the producer and
that paid by the consumer is dis
cussed by A. w. Winburn, President
Of the Central of Georgia Railway
Company, in a statement appearing
elsewhere in this issue. Mr.. Win
burns discussion is based on a re
cent editorial in the Cochran (Ga.)
Journal, which points out that far
mer who sells a hog at 10 cents per
pound on foot buys back boiled ham
at 80 cents per pound The Cochran
editor asks how much freight was
paid on the ham from Cochran to
Moultrie, from Moultrie to Chicago,
from Chicago to Macon, and from
Macon back to Cochran.
Although this journal is out. of
TIE ordinary, Mr.. Winburn shows
that the entire freight amounts to
only 21s cents per pound, and+of the
difference of 20 cents per pound be-
tween tie price received by the pro
1ucer and that paid by the consumer
freight rates were responsible, there
ore, for little more than 8 pc
ent. Something elese is response
lie for the other 81 per cent. M
Winburn declares that freight rates
are not a governing factor in bring
ng about the spread in price be-
sween producer and consumer, and
that transportation rates are not
handicapping agriculture, but trans
oortation servece is the salvation of
agriculture. The railway executive
agrees with the Georgia Editor who
concludes that the trouble lies in
an unbusiness-like system of farm
ing which forces products on the
market in a disorderly manner, adj
versely affecting the farmer on one
end and the consumer on the other.

Junior Red Cross
Spreads Good Will
Throughout World

Nearly 100000 pupils in the schools
of America are following the standard
OF unseltish service as members OF the
American Junior Red Cross. the an

is local, national and international in
scope, the American Junior Red Cross
Is working unfalteringly for health
and happiness and in the promotion

Increased activity on the part OF
the schools enrolled and deeper recog-
milton by school authorities of the ed
ucational values of Junior Red Cross
have been significant features of the
last year. Carrying on educational
and relief work in France, Poland,
Austria, Hungary, Jugoslavia, Albania,

iors are proving apt messengers Of
the spirit of good will and mutual I'M
derstanding through correspondence
with pupils in schools scattered
throughout the world. At the close
of the school year in June 2,0Oo
schools were engaged in correspond
ence with a like number of schools
in Europe; 2S4 schools in our insular
possessions and Alaska territory car
ried on an exchange of letters with
schools in the United States and South
Africa. In fact, nearly 1900 schools
with probably 100000 pupils were busy
in this fine act of cheerful communi-
cation, while S,347 articles passed
through National Headquarters of the
Red Cross in exchanges between the
interested pupils here and overseas.
An incident of the years advance was
the beginning of activity which will
eventually install Junior Red Cross
in the Indian schools Of the United
States.

pied children with their chorus which
came from the Bakule school in
Prague, Czechoslovakia, to show graft

assistance declare that nothing since
the World War has done so much to
awaken the Red Cross spirit in the
communities visited by the unit
The work of the American Juniors
in foreign fields is emphasized in the
advancement of Fairgrounds, scholar
ships in farm, trade and other schools,
community and school garden work,
and donations of cash and equipment
to children's organizations. In these
projects $112,660.17 was spent during
the last year in ten European coun-
tries, in China and in the Virgin Is

QuirinaI Originally Church Property.
The Quirinal is one Of the seven
hills upon which Rome stands; it was
dedicated by the ancient Romans to
Romulus, or Quirinus. The Quirinal
palace was built in the Sixteenth cen
fury by the Roman Catholic church,
but after the breach between the
church and state in 1870 it became the
residence of the Italian kings. The
Quirinal, as it is fguratiyely used,
means the court of united Italy and
the monarchical regime.

Il. CARD OF THANKS
The Coconino sun., 1923-08-10

The national park service has been
instructed to include in its budget
100000 for the purchase by the U.
S. department of the interior of the
Bright Angel trail at Grand Canyon
from Coconino county, its present
owner.
This is in line with recommends
tions recently made by citizens of this
county to the board of supervisors
and also made by Congressman Carl
Hayden, Lewis G. Cramton and others.
The 100000 is all to be spent on
the Maine Grand Canyon highway,
under direction of the national park
service of the national government.
1t amounts to turning over the Maine
Grand Canyon highway to the gov
ernment for building and permanent
maintenance, along the same line that
is followed by the government with
respect to the Cody road into the Yell
lowstone national park. The impor-
tance of this to the county will be
tremendous. 1t puts an important
road into good shape not later than
next year and leaves the probability
that the road will ultimately be paw
ed by the government and constant
source of expense and controversy
lifted off of the shoulders of the tax
payers of this county.

week by the county board of supervis-
ors converting the governments atti-

KOCH WARNS ROTARY THAT
SHORTAGE OF CITY WATER
NEEDS QUICK ATTENTION

Flagstaff's need for immediate de-
velopment of an additional water sup
ply was strongly emphasized at Fri
days Rotary meeting by I. B. Koch,
vice. president and manager of the
Arizona Lumber & Timber Co., who
urged that strong, concerted action be
at once taken. Mr.. Koch said:
II wish to bring to your attention
and to recommend to your sincere
consideration the one all-important
and absorbing matter-our water
problem. / am casting no reflections
in my remarks upon anybody. / feel
that everything possible has been done
by our city council to push this mat
ter along, and as / remarked in my
talk on the subject last year, the city
council cannot do everything; it needs
the support of the citizens and the
urging of the citizens and the COM
bined effort of the town as whole
in order to bring about some relief
from one of the greatest menaces that
confronts Flagstaff today shortage
of water.
It seems almost useless to expect
a response from the citizens in APP
peals of this kind. I have in mind a
meeting held last fall on this impor-
tant subject, wherein direct invitations
were extended to approximately 20 to
30 citizens to meet at the court house
at p. m. to take up this matter. Out

trail, conveying all its right, title and
interest therein to the United States

mentioned letters attention is called
to the requirements of the existing
civil code of the state of Arizona,
page 848, requiring the sale at public
auction to the highest bidder for cash
of real or personal property belonging
to the county, the proceeds to be turn
ed into the county treasury for the
use of the county. This provision you

connection with the proposed trans

Arizona has been endowed by ma
ture with combination of advantages
and resources which give it an indiv-
iduality and attraction with which few
sections Of the continent can compare.
The visitor cannot but be impressed
by the delightful winter climate of the
south and the equally delightful sum-
n1er climate of the north; by the
wealth of beauty offered by its scenic
wonders; by the romance which turks
in its ancient ruins and historical To-
calities; by the wide variety of its in
dustries; by the spirit of the land
itself.
Most of all, perhaps, is the stranger
impressed by Arizona's opportunity
for the future. The fact that it~.was
the only state to show an increase in
population of more than so per cent
between 1910 and 1920 may be taken
as an indication of the growth to
come, in which the development of its
many resources and its growing pop
ularity as a tourist center will figure.
Arizona's opportunities are great in
deed, and its people may take advan-
tage Of them without greater effort
than the exercise Of state loyaltysand

directors of the movement, press re-
porters and city officials, there was,
beliece, but one citizen responded, and
took him down myself. Rotarians
and citizens, / say to you that this is
a disgrace. We boost for Flagstaff,
we are proud of it, we want it to go
ahead, and yet when subject of such
vital Importance as our water supply
is to be discussed, none of US is will
ing to discomfort himself by taking
the trouble to do down to meeting
and hear what has to be said.
"Do you know that the present flow
from our city springs is two million
gallons every ID hours, with but 900,-
900 gallons going into the reservoir,
which means loss of 100000 gal
Ions every "a hours? Get that into
your heads. Two millions gallons
flowing and only 100000 being con-
served.
There are at present in both reser-
voirs approximately 40 million gallons
on hand. The present daily consump-
ton is little over one million gall
Ions. Of this one million gallons the
Santa Fe is drawing 81 900 gallons
daily. Two hundred thousand gallons
of this they receive gratis as interest
on the investment which they made in
putting in the present reservoir. For
the balance the town is receiving the
munificent sum of $8.35 day.
