In 1915 some Braxilians caught a
shark OF Pernambuco and, opening
1t, found inside 1t a bag containing
the papers of a steamer named Maria
Quesada, which proved beyond doubt
that the vessel had been chartered
by the Germans and had sailed from
Newport News for the purpose of
helping German submarines.

year was $500, as compared with
over 1900 in the same months of
last year. Up to the middle Of June
total orders of freight cars were
67,209. The number of passenger
cars ordered in the first five months
of this year was 1850, as compared
with 1,195 in the same months of last
year, and up to the second week in
June the number of passenger cars
ordered was 1900.
zone reason why the orders placed
for new equipment recently have
shown decline doubtless is that as
a result of the large orders placed
in the latter part of last year and
the early part of this year there
were on June 1, 107,079 freight cars
and 2,041 locomotives which had been
ordered but not delivered.
"Jn the 171a months which ended
at the middle Of June the number of
freight cars ordered was 248,181, the
number of locomotives ordered was
4,24S, and the number of passenger
cars ordered was 1852. This was
at the annual rate of about 176,000
freight cars, 1850 locomotives and
$500 passenger cars, and represents
on the whole the largest orders for
equipment ever placed by the rail
roads in an equally long period in
more than 10 years"

Interpretation of the letter" of the
Constitution, to stifle the will Of the
people as represented by our modern
laws. The most feasible way of
meeting the problem, it appears to
me, is to amend the Constitution in
such way as to make it possible for
the will of the people to become
operative. Several plans have been
suggested, either to deprive the court
of the authority to declare Iegisla-
tiOn unconstitutional or to require
that such an act on the part Of the
court would necessitate either a
unanimous court or nearly so, or
that Congress might pass a law over
the decision Of the Court and it
would thus become operative It ap-
pears to me that some such amend
ment is imperative We do not want
to live as vassals of any law.
Il do not want to be understood
as urging the evasion of any law,
however. It is the duty of every
citizen to obey all the laws of his
state and nation.
1T is necessary that all laws be
obeyed by every citizen because if
some citizens are able to select the
laws they will obey and reject others
it would be the prerogative of other
citizens to make like selections, with
a resulting chaos making it impos-
sible for our nation to operate under
such system. 1t is the right of
every citizen to advocate and work
to have any laws amended or repeal
ed, but until such time as it is amen
ded or repealed, it should be obeyed"

the policy of the Interstate CONNER
ce Commission in fixing freight rates
well, it is difficult to know just how
to characterize it. One thing is GER
tain, that it is sitting the industry
Of our State, taxing industry out of
proportion to the service rendered
and increasing the cost of living for
our people. Industries will not
come to Arizona They cannot come
here and exist on a basis of freight
rates similar to those now in effect.
Why, do you know, ladies and gen
tlemen, that it costs more to shin a
carload of lumber from Flagstaff.

ship the same from San Pedro, Cal

that there is very small difference
in the cost of shipping copper bull
lion to New York from Arizona and
shipping it from Arizona to Calves
ton, Texas. Do you know that it is
almost an impossibility to get a fair
rate to the Pacific Coast
In my opinion, the time has come
when it is necessary in this country
to get our government back, close
to the people.
Reyerting again to the purpose of
this meeting; and considering the
principles upon which this govern
ment was founded, we must get back
to the thought of the fathers, of
government "of the people, by the
people and for the people," The
fathers jealously guarded the sover-
eighty of every state. They surrend-
cred nothing to the federal govern
ment that they could possibly do for
themselves. This country has pros
pered and made progress by preserv-
ing and extending the power reserv-
ed to the states and the people, and
we should do we'll to re-dedicate our
selves today to this basic principle
which underlies Democratic govern
ment.

completion of the north, south, east
and west links in the highway chain,
and it is hoped that by the first Of
January, the road from Phoenix to
Yuma will be completed, and also
the road from Phoenix to Ash Fork,
with the exception of one short
stretch.
The long continued drouth the
Governor stated, had made it diff
cult to maintain the roads, but they
are in as good shape as could be
expected considering the dry wealth
er. He said that as soon as we had
some rain, the roads would all be
dragged and put in first class con-
dition.
The Governor stated that he was
disappointed in the action of the Le-
gislature in failing to enact legisla-
ton for comprehensive highway
program He deplored the condition
in which Senate Bill No. 156 reached
his office after having passed in the
closing moments of the legislative
session, but he stated that it was his
hope that the bill would meet the
requirements of the State until such
time as it could be amended or a
new bill passed.
In commenting upon the first six
months work of the Democratic ad-
ministration, the Governor said that
he was fairly well satisfied and that
he believed the institutions and de-
partments were now in such shape
that by efficient management, many
economies could be affected

LARGE ORDERS
FOR RAILROAD
EQUIPMENT LET

"Thus far in the year 1929" says
the Railway Age, the railways have
not ordered as many new freight cars
as in the same part of 1922, but they
have ordered a much larger number
of new locomotives. In the first five
months of 1923 the number of new
locomotives ordered was 1893, as
compared with only 460 in the same
months of 1922 Additional orders
placed in the first two weeks of June
increased the total number of loco
motives ordered up to that time to
1854. The number ordered in the
entire year 1922 was $500, which
shows that two thirds as many were
ordered in less than one-half of the
present year than in all of last year.

ULTIMATE COMFORT

Fred Kelly in The Nations Business writes that for years hotels have been competing with one another to pro- vide the ultimate in guests comfort. But it is only recently that anyone had enough imagination to think of any thing so sensible as a telephone eN- tension in the bathroom. What is more annoying than to have to get out of the bathtub all dripping and stand by a wall telephone? One hotel l saw recently has two telephones in each room, one by the bathtub and the other on a stand by the head of the bed. Excellent places for phones, but think how long it took for hotel men, esen hotel men with the best of in tentions-to quit putting them on the wall where a guest can't even sit down. For that matter. it was many years since phones in private homes were placed where one could talk and be comfortable all at once.

sUEZ AND PANAMA CANALS

Coal was the principal commodity moving west ward. Only 46 American vessels pas -ed through the canal compared with 67 during the same period in 1921.
 During this period vessels aggrc- gating 5,6s7 ,224 net tons made use of the Panama Canal.
 As illustrative of the importance of the Panama Canal to the coast-to- coast trade. t is stated that last Sep tember one of the steamers of the Luckenbach Line carried from Cali fornia to Atlantic points 1000, ,000 feet of lumber and 5000 tons of can ned salmon, raisins and general mer- chandise, or a total of little less than 10000 deadweight tons, or l9,0oo measured tons.
