HIGH CRIME TO
COLLECT FUNDS
FROM LAb0RERS
Pfeiffer Introduces 0rdi-
nance Prohibiting
Political "Clubs."
RIEDEN "PASSES BUCK"
Gets Council to Adopt 0rdi-
nance Permitting Him
to Cut Force.
RIEDEN PASSES BUCK"

Tat city officials, regardless of who
they may be, who have accepted cam
paign contributions from day laborers
are guilty of high crime" was the
charge made by Tax Commissioner
John p. Pfeiffer at the council meeting
Thursday afternoon. The occasion
WAS the introduction by Commissioner
Pfeiffer for an ordinance making it
punishable by removal from office or
discharge of any official who ''solicits.
collects. gives or holds" moneys thus
collected. Another striking feature Of
the council meeting was the passage of
an ordinance authorizing Street Com
missioner William o. Rieden TO suspend
all work not absolutely necessary for
the maintenance of streets and to suS
pend sufficient number of employees
so that he may come within his budget
during the remainder of the fiscal year.
This ordinance was opposed by Com
missioner Pfeiffer on the ground that
the street commissioner already had
such authority and that he was mercy
attempting TO pass the buck" to the
cou.icil. Commissioner Lambert insist
ed that City Engineer d. ID. Harrigan
be exempted from the provisions of the
ordinance before he would vote for it.
1t finally passed by a vote of four TO
one.
Says Rieden passing Buck
Thursdays meeting, although it fol-
lowed long caucus in the mayors Of
flee, was charged with intense feeling
and brought out forcibly the wide
breach which has occurred between
Commissioner John =. Pfeiffer and his
for. er colleagues. Bla X and Rieden.
Pr fer did not attend the caucus.
Introduction of Commissioner Rie-
denis ordinance providing for the dis
charge of his men and the adjustment
of non-appointive offices was the signal
for Commissioner Pfeiffer to turn loose.
He pointed out to the commission that
under the charter the city government
is divided into departments, each head
cd ~ commissioner This commits
siOner. he asserted. is charged with the
duty of operating that department.
This ordinance" the street commits
sioner said. ''is nothing but buck
passing proposition. The street COM
missioner has exhausted his funds and
il is not now up to the commission to
tell him to stop work. 1t is up to him."
The tax commissioner said that it was
a pity that lat this time men must re
put out of work when money is being
spent for golf club houses and swim
I~k-Srg pools" Since it must be done,
however. he insisted that Commissioner
Rieden had the power and should take
the responsibility, adding that "it is not
necessary that he should pass the buck
to ythers."
Must Exclude Harrigan.
Rieden arose to explain that "Dr.
Frederick Terrell wants this ordinance
passed 1t is necessary, to make it
legal so the bank will be under no OBJ
legations and so nothing will fire back.
Just safety first. ] know / can fire
these men but DR.. Terrell wants this
ordinance put through"
Commissioner Lambert pointed out
that Commissioner Rieden could do as
| he had done when his budget was cut,

nance" Commissioner Pfeiffer said
because city employees have been asked
to contribute money for such purposes.
Some of these men are not earning de-
cent livelihood. | think it's n crime.
| don't care who the official is. but il
he takes money from $3.50 men he is
committing high crime. He is taking
the bread ont of the mouths of these
mems families Whether they give will
ingly, or unwillingly, it doesn't matter.
These men realize that if they don I
! contribute there is a possibility of their
/ losing their jobs, whether such danger
is real or not, it is there"
The tax commissioner pointed out
| that there is n state law covering this
practice but he wanted n city ordinance
on the subject also. The ordinance was
adopted. each member of the commits
sion vieing with the other in shouting
| his AYE"
Protests Another Expense.
The tax commissioner charged thigh
| crime" again when the mayor intro
duced an ordinance appropriating $500
TO defray the expenses of Edgar Tobin
to Cleveland in connection With bal
loon race.
Taking $500 for such a purpose
when you are about 10 discharge All
these men is n high crime" the tax
commissioner shouted.
His protest went unheeded and The
ordinance was adopted four to one.
Officials at the city hall feel that
Commissioner Rieden's object in intro
lucipg his ordinance giving him author
ity to remove his men was to square
himself with the labor unions. Instead
of taking the blame himself. it is point
el out, he can now tell those men whom
he must discharge that 1.-THE council did
it." Commissioner Ray Lambert. how
ever, was emphatic in his assertion
that the ordinance was intended to pro-

Mayor Black then declared that 'it

ing, however, that such was not the
case. Following further argument be-
tween the mayor and tax commissioner
over the necessity for the ordinance
from a legal standpoint, it was put 10
a vote and adopted four to one.
Pfeiffer Has q Bomb"
Then Commissioner Pfeiffer exploded
bomb by introducing the ordinance
prohibiting the solicitation of money
from employees for campaign purposes.
The ordinance. in addition to prohibit
ing the collection or holding of such
funds, makes it the duty of all officers
to cause the cessation of such solicita-
ton, collection or payment. Failure TO
do so would make such officer guilty
of misconduct AMI if upon trial he is
found guilty, would be subject to dis
charge or removal from office.

Philadelphia. Jan. 26.-Dusty records,

son of William Penn, when the former

the land was the property of the Key

chiefs appeared today to be satisfied

ARIZONA HAS MANY AUTOS.

There will be more than so, 600
automobiles in Arizona in 1924,
according to figures obtained
from state officials who are now
figuring on contracts for the
license plates for next year. 1t
is believed that the contract will
call for between $4,000 and 3d.
900 license plates.
According to official reports,
II sol licenses were issued up to
July of this year. During 1922
the total licenses issued were
38, 3O4.
Cars have increased so rapid.
ly this year that it has been ne
cessary for the state to order
several thousand additional ii
cense plates. 1t is estimated
that that there will be 5000
more cars on January /, 1924
than there were on January /,

Phoenix, Aug. 12.-Shipments
of cattle out of Arizona during
the first six months of 1923 to.

of the department of agriculture.
The summary was compiled from
figures kept by the state live.

The largest shipments during
the six months period were in
May when $1,000 head were
loaded. The lightest month was
March with 1882 head.
California, Texas, Colorado,

MOTHER NATURE STEPS IN.

Recent price reductions ia
gasoline are saving American
motorists approximately $780,.
600, 900 a year. says The Manu-
facturer.
And what about this reduction.
Not political interference or reg.
ulation of the industry. but
simply an over production of
crude oil in California and other
fields.
No oil company or combina-
ton of companies had there
been one, could have prevented
the drop.
High prices for crude oil en-
couraged production during re.
cent years to abnormal proper
tons with resulting over supply
and present low prices for some
thing which is a drug on the
market.
You cannot stop the working
of the law of supply and de.
mand-not even Senator Brook
hart, La Follett, Johnson or
Congress itself.
II the price is too.low produc.
ton falls off. if it is too high
production increases beyond alb.
ility of market to absorb output.
Or if the price is abnormally
high, consumption falls off. Any
way you figure it the result is
the same and is governed by the
law of averages.
If will be the same with wheat,
corn. hogs or any other COM
modify The politicians can talk
about price fixing until they are
black in the face, it will never
satisfy either the farmer or con-
sumner. Either fixed price will
be too low for one and high for,
the other or visa versa.
Oil is now furnishing perfect
illustration and is letting all the
political gas" out of the tanks
of candidates who were getting
ready to barbecue the industry
in their efforts to "befriend" the
people and incidentally secure
their votes. 1t was unkind of
mother nature to take hand. =
