THE EFFECT OF COMPETITION ON
THE PUBLIC


set of executive officers and product
ion equipment.
A very good example Of this is the
production of the Ford. Volume of
business with small net profit makes
large profit.
Charles Schwab predicts the auto
industry will be condensed in a few
years by large companies absorbing
the smaller ones, which will tend to
standardize the product and business
into few units, and while not chok-
ing competition, will concentrate buy
ing and selling power, and ultimately
give the consumer greater value for
his investment.
The railroads are trying to condense
in way to better meet the demand
of the public for better service at less
cost.
An officer of the industrial congress
quotes a railroad official as saying
that every new family settling
along their line means an increase of
$4,000 in business to that locality, not
that that particular family will spend
that amount, but the business turn
over amounts to that.
Progressive business methods, mu-
taal cooperation, civic loyalty, mean a
live city and mutual progress.

JOHN IVENS POST LIVELY
ONE AT GRAND CANYON

The Washington's birthday leap
year hard-time dance and box social
was a huge success from every stand
point. We had as guests DR.. and
Mrs. H. I. Southworth of Prescott
DR.. Southworth is commander of the
American Legion, department Of Ari-
zona, and Mrs. Southworth is national
vice president of the Legion auxiliary
They had been contemplating a visit
to the John Ivens post and auxiliary
unit for some time, and took advan-
tage of the opportunity occasioned by
this affair to pay this visit and SEE
these organizations in action, and they
were in action. The sbaby post ano
unit of Arizona did themselves proud
DIR. Southworth addressed the gath
ering concerning the pending legis-
lation regarding adjusted compensa-
tion-the so-ealled honus-which is
not a bonus, but is just what is i'm
piled by the tern-adjusted compen-
sation. Mrs. Southworth granted US
a bit of her time and told of the work
of the auxiliary, and how it coordin-
ated with that of the Legion. She
complimented our liye-wire unit, and
in closing favored US with a poem
written by one Of the u. S. veterans
in the hospital at Prescott. Mrs
Southworth broadcasted this poem tc
radioland during the national conven-
ton at San Francisco last fall. We
believe that DR.. and Mrs. Southworth
will want to visit us again. They were
accompanied by Mr.. and Mrs. Brooks
Dudley of Prescott. Prizes for cos
tunes were awarded as follows: First
prize, Mrs. Tillotson and j. w. (Uncle
Waltz Coffee; second prize, Mrs. Carl
Valentine and Jack Lacey; third prize.
Mr.. and Mrs. r. p. (Dick) Gilliland
These prizes were cash, between 81
and $100, and we are under the i'm
preston the amounts were in the
neighborhood of the first figure men
toned.
The most fun of the evening was
occasioned by the ladies asking for
the dances. Some of them had so
many engaged ahead that had all been
fulfilled they would still be dancing
as we go to press. Nevertheless, we
are becoming quite cosmopolitan, as
this is the first time in the history of
our metropolis a dance has lasted un-
til 200 a m. In all probability the
dance would have lasted all night had
it not been for the new clock, which
the school board installed last week,
staring US out Of countenance.
If you didn't on Washington's birth
day, spend a pleasant evening of
Wholesome enjoyment, with congen-
,ial gathering, then you didn't attend
the affair given at the school house
by the John Ivens post and auxiliary
unit. We believe that everyone who
attended wishes that we would have
more Of these functions.

JUDGE HANCE HOLD 1900
RECORD AS A NOTARY


Fifty-two years as a notary public
in the state of Arizona without one
single paper having failed to pass the
courts, is the record submitted by
George w. Hance of Camp Verde for
the title of 'sdean" of the notaries pub
lie of the state, according to letter
sent to Governor Hunt from Mr.
Hance.
Mr.. Hance wrote the governor pri-
marily to have his appointment as
notary renewed, his present term, the
thirteenth he has served, expiring on
February "a. As a request he asks
that the new term be made to expire
February 28, 1928.
This request, he says, is made SO
that the date of the expiration OF
his fourteenth term will fit~the years
of his service, pointing out that Feb
ruary 2S, 1928, he will have complet-
ed SIS years and when he writes "My
term expires 2-28-28" it will represent
two times % or Sc years.
Mr.. Hance advised the governor
that he was first appointed notary
by A. P. K. Stafford, territorial gov
ernor Of Arizona So years ago. He
received the appointment February
"a, 1872, and served continuously
since that time.
The governor has announced that
the request Of Mr.. Hance to have his
term expire February 28, 1928, would
be granted, and James H. Kerby, sec
retary of state, has been advised to
that end.

FREDONIA PEOPLE WANT
BRIDGE AT LEES FERRY
Fredonia, Ariz., Feb. IL, 19G

Fredonia, Ariz., Feb. 19, 1924.
To the Editor Of The Coconino Sun,
Flagstaff, Arizona.
Dear Editor: In the last issue of
The Sun, dated February /, / find
that we people of Fredonia want a
bridge over the Colorado river at a
site near Vulcan Throne instead Of
Lees Ferry. This certainly is mis-
take, because after talking to most
of the men of Fredonia, / find prac-
tically all in favor of the site at Lees
Ferry. | will say that at least eight
of every ten people in town are in
favor of the Ferry site.
Fredonia is in Coconino County, and
wants the bridge in Coconino county;
certainly not in Mohaye county, where
in would help Fredonia and Coconino
county very little.
It is all very we'll for the people Of
Mohave to pull for a bridge at Vulcan
Throne, but I think it is a mistake
for our people to discourage the build
ing of a bridge at Lees Ferry not only
for the welfare Of the county, but fo1
the state, too. First, the road by
way of the Ferry must be kept open
anyway, and crossing provided at
county expense. Then the greater
part Of the travel north of the Can
yon in Arizona is across the Kaibat
plateau to Bright Angel Point Ton the
road kept up by the u. S. forest SER
vice). This road rs travelled by the
forest workers and tourists. Further
the scenic wonders of the Lees Ferry
route will satisfy the most skeptical
regarding Arizona's wonders.
The only objections made to the
Lees Ferry route seems to be the
snow on Buckslin mountain in the
winter. The forest service states that
it would be cheaper to drag it three
or four times a winter than attempt
to build a road around the north enc
of the mountain.
Considering the possibilities of
dam site at the Ferry the Ferry as
bridge site is a dam site better
than Vulcan throne and aftel
considering all other points for anC
against want to say that am fol
bridge at Lees Ferry now and al
the time for Coconino county.
Very sincerely,
LORUM PRATT, Jr.

Belt, Representative Hayden.

| CALL FOR DIRECTORS
MEETING OF CATTLEMEN

President Henry G. Boice of the
Arizona Cattle Growers association
has issued call for the first meeting
of the new board of directors of the
cattlemen's organization. The board
meeting will be held in the office of
the association at Phoenix on Wednes-
I day, March 10 at 1000 o'clock a. m.
The directors are asked to arrive
in Phoenix not later than the morn
ing of Tuesday, March Is, so that all
the officers of the association can at
tend and take part in the freight rate
hearing that the association will par
ticipate in before the interstate COM
merce commission at the state capitol
building that day.
The hearing involves the railroads
OF this state, the Southern Pacific in
particular, to show full and sufficient
reason why they should be granted
permission to raise the rates on cat
tie, horses and hogs from all their
shipping points in Arizona for moving
of livestock to their eastern terminus
points in New Mexico and Texas:
In general these proposed increases
will average Is per cent over present
existing eastbound rates which have
been in effect on this particular rail-
road since 1898. In some instances
the proposed rate increases would
amount to as much as 60 per cent over
present rates.
To cattlemen whose herds are sold
to eastern buyers it would mean di-
rect loss of from $1.00 to $500 per
head received for their cattle if these
rates were allowed to be put into eff
feet
Besides taking up the freight rate
case at that time the directors will
thoroughly consider the foot and
mouth disease that is now raging in
California.
Legal cases for members of the as
sociation involving trespass proceed
ings on ranges over the state will also
be considered by the directors at this
meeting. General unfinished work Of
the association, besides laying down
several more questions on which the
organization is to lend its support ana
energy, will BE part of the business
| transacted by the cattle growers asso-
citation directors.
Following is a list of the IA county
directors of the association, who,
with President Henry B. Boice, vice
president A. c. Webb and Treasurer
J. M. Ronstadt, constitute the board
of II directors of the association:
Apache county, Bert j. Golfer; Co
conino, William Babbitt, Flagstaff;
Cochise, Frank P. Moore, Douglas;

He said he had heard it stated that
their plan is to gradually bring men
here from McNary, Arizona, from
their mill there, which is untrue, he
said, because they need those men in
McNary.
Mr.. Cady said he has heard that
there sometimes is difficulty in get
ting labor here In summer. If that
condition exists this summer, he said,
we may have as many as IL or Is col
ored men working here then; certain
ly not more than that.
Council members thanked Mr.. Cady
for telling them the conditions. They
told him that they have no right to
dictate whom he shall employ, but
that they were highly pleased to learn
that he does not intend bringing col
ored people here in any quantity.
In spite of Mr.. Cady's straightfor-
ward statement of facts, no doubt
these rufnors viii persist, in diminish
ing number and force, for some time
to come. There are in every town a

of. closing these crossings. it was
thought that in time to come more
crossings might be absolutely neces-
sary as the city grows.
The location of the depot at the
present time between tracks, with
main switching tracks on the north
side, compelling the greatest number
of patrons of the Santa Fe to cross
in between tracks to the isolated de-
pot, is extremely dangerous and un
dolbtedly a condition the railroad Of
ficials desire to avoid. There ari
many good station sites on the south
side of the right of way, also grounds
amply sufficient for switch tracks
but station on the south side woult
greatly increase the hazard which
both the Santa Fe and city officials
would avoid. 1t was suggested that
the temporary blocking of crossings
could be compensated by subway un-
der Sitgreaves street where the tracks
are already elevated so that the cost
would not be excessive. This street
will undoubtedly be paved within a
short time. It connects the high school
on the north with the Normal school
on the south with the Emerson city
school in the center.
Without information as to problems
of re-arranging railroad yards, the
special committee did not feel it in
cumbent upon them to make any def
mite request since no definite prop
osition was made by the railroad Of
ficials.
The committee was very much of
the opinion that under existing condi-
tions a depot situated between tracks
with switching going on all around it,
railroad officials were fully advised as
to the hazard to the general public;
that for the conduct of their own bus
mess with Safety First" and reason
ably decent accommodations for their
patrons, a change should be made
soon.

without foundation. He said the same
rumors have gained some credence
among the employees of the company
and are not helping labor conditions
any. He told about hearing that it
was stated on the street here this
week that hundred negroes are to
be brought in right away.
Mr.. Cady explained that he suppos-
ed these yarns were given credence
by some people. because it is known
that The company had taken lot of
negroes into McNary. Conditions
there were different, he said. He
found a very high class of labor al
work here, but at McNary very many
of the employees were Indians, who, as
soon as they earned enough for a
sack of meal, disappeared on the res
eryation, keeping the force constantly
disorganized. They put the McNary
mill on full running time, which meant
they must double their force; for this
they brought all of their old reliable
employees who would come from Nc
Nary, La.
TO bring coIored people here, even
if they wanted to, Mr.. Cady explain
ed, would be ruinous in cost, both be-
cause of transportation expense and
because the class of men available
would be green to the work here,
