PERSHING Is NAMED ON
IMPORTANT COMMISSION

General John J. Pershing has been
formally designated by President Coo
lidge as president of the Tacna-Arica
plebiscate committee on which the
executive relies to end the forty year
old dispute of Chile and Peru under
his recent award as arbitrator.
General Pershing is the first to be
named Of the three members of the
commission which will supervise de-
termination by popular vote and un-
der suitable safeguards of the SOW
ereignty of the two disputed teTritor-
les. The Chilean and Peruvian men,
bers are still to be selected by their
respective governments.
Prompt action by President Coolidge
in naming the American member who
also viii be president of the COM
mission is regarded as indicating a
desire on his part as arbitrator that
there should be no unnecessary delay
in executing his award, which allowed
four months from March IA for the
naming of the commission.

CORWIN BOOSTS
STATE in EAST
WeIls-Dickey Official Tells Mid
west of Observations in
Montana

Montana with its many natural
resources has its future assured,
o. M. Corwin, vice president Of
the Wells-Dickey company, told
Minneapolis newspapers on his return
home after a careful survey of TINS
state. Mr.. Corwin was a visitor in
Billings during the course OF his trip
over the state.
Although Montana is an "infant in
agriculture" it produced a cash farm
income of s125, 100000, Mr.. Corwin
said. The state is confident, Opti-
mistic and "debt triumphant" he
/ added.
an my travels about the state I
found discomfort the exception. The
people are optimistic. They believe
in their soil and they are sold on their
climate, realizing that intelligent ef-
fort will bring its reward The av-
erage production of wheat in 1928 was
not less than II bushels an acre. The
average was 141A the country over.
PlOwed land values in Montana av-
eraged $21 an acre and in the United
States $64 an acre.
"Good farmers have shown a profit
each year. Some farmers have had
average yields of from 20 to 80 bush
els an acre of premium wheat over
Iperiods of from 10 to Is years.
Montana is primarily a wheat state
and win be for a long time. Diversi-
fication sufficient to produce the
household living expenses, leaving the
wheat crop as a cash crop, is the am
bition of the farmers today and the
small farm is going to have a few
cattle, a few head of sheep, some hogs
land poultry.
"The reserves of the banks are high.
There were too many banks prior to
1923. The wedding out has been bene-
ficiaI. The bankers who have sur
vived are far seeing and better pre-
pared to assist in the development Of

Engineering Feat

The new plant is one Of the highest

One of the most delicate feats Of

in the world was the construction of

MODEL HOMES

THE building material makers of
the country are going to spend
about S8,000,000 next year on ma
tional movement for better dwell
ings. They will erect demonstra-
ton homes in % cities which will
show what constitutes good archi-
lecture, proper construction, and
sound investment.
Many persons who are putting up
houses do not seem to take any ac-
count of the factor of depreciation.
Their houses are so poorly con-
structed that the rate of deteriOra-
tion must be very fast. Some peo-
pie think one would have to figure
On many of these new houses, that
they will wear out so fast that
they will have to be discarded in
about 25 to 40 years.
Take the case of a house costing
$4,000. If that house is going to
show so many defects and be so
out of repair in 80 years that it
will be cheaper to put up new
hne than to fix it up, you have got
to charge off 1888 year from the
value of that place as the cost of
depreciation.
If by spending a few thousands
more, that house could be so built
that in 80 years it would be sound
in it's main features and need only
superficial repairs, the deprecia-
ton on that house has been small
figure, and the cost of operating it
not nearly so large. 1t used to be
considered that a well built house
should last 100 years. Many OF
those put. up 100 years ago are
still in very good condition
A house that is made tasteful
and attractive will frequently sell
for lot more than it cost, while
one that is ugly and inartistic will
involve a loss if you try to dis
pose of it. 1t will pay for people
in Winslow who plan to build next
year, to make their houses conform
to the standards of a model home

THE SPENDERS

IT is often remarked that the
young people spend money on a
good time with a freedom scarcely
dreamed of some years ago. In
former years, if a fellow blew in
four or five dollars on his best girl
for an evenings entertainment, he
felt he was doing pretty we'll
Today many of the spenders do
not seem to think much of blowing
in $40, for an evenings fun, and
at some of the college prom"
dances, they will spend 500, on
the round of sports lasting a day
or two. The older people find these
rapid methods rather startling.
The youngsters may say that if
you want to get money, you have
got to spend it. But there is much
unhappiness prevailing anon 6
young married people caused by
the lack of money, and if the hus-
bands and wives had begun to save
money when they began to earn,
their financial prospects would be
better.

"PLUGGERS" WANTED

= Gently investigated the subject
of transportation, relative to the

complained to this committee, that
college graduates as class are not
apt to be steady "pluggers" when
they get into a field like the trans
pOrtation business. The complaint
is often made that college gradu-
ates expect to get ahead fast, and
are impatient of the slow grind
necessary to win success in any
occupation.
A man without education will
often beat out one who has had
every possible advantage. The
partly educated man knows that he
has got to work hard and he sticks
at his job year after year until
he understands it perfectly. The
educated man may get into bis
head that if he is nota given a
promotion about every three
months, it is time for him to get
out and go elsewhere.

ARIZONA IS BEING
SOLD TO ALL PARTS
OF UNITED STATES

State advertising as a specialized,
concerted campaign may still be a
thing Of the future, but Arizona is
being sold to more people in other
parts of the country this winter
than ever before.
This conclusion was advanced by
members of the staff of the Arizona
Industrial congress, who declared
that the number of inquiries being
received by that organization,
chambers of commerce, advertising
clubs and other agencies shows a
pronounced increase over former
years.
A particularly interesting phase
of the increased number of inquir-
les has been the distribution of
Arizona literature by the perman-
.ent Chicago office and exhibit Of
the Los Angeles Chamber of Com
merce, as one of the initial steps
in southern California cooperation
in Arizona Colonization work.
Crowds received at this office have
been so great in the few weeks the
office has been open that urgent
calls have been issued to chambers
of commerce of the state for ad-
ditional supplies.
Cooperation of the Southern Pa
cific and Santa Fe railroads also
has brought in large number of
inquiries. For instance, one brief
paragraph on Arizona colonization
plans that appeared in the Santa
Fe magazine 'The Earth brought
100 inquiries to the Industrial con-
gress in little more than two weeks.
The railroad cooperation in the
colonization program proposed by
the congress is expected to pro-
duce valuable results as the South
ern Pacific has recently had four
experts in the state collecting ma
terial for a new Arizona booklet,
and the Santa Fe is now publishing
a revised edition of it's latest book
let dealing with the state.
The new campaigns of the COM
munity advertising clubs at Tue
son and Phoenix have been a great
factor in arousing greater interest
in Arizona in the east, and both
clubs are receiving excellent results
according to information received
by the congress.

Star Stock Touring Car
Wins Mt. Wilson Run

Another speed record for four
cylinder cars was set up last week
by Star stock touring car in the
tortuous Mt Wilson run which is
an annual event for southern Cali
fornia wotor car dealers.
According to the report received
by the Meteor Motor company here,
the time made by the Star was 25
minutes 49 2-5 seconds for the nine
and a half miles up the famous
grade to the summit.
This climb is held under the
strict rules of the A. A. A. and only
their figures are official.
The best previous official time on
record established in 1918 by a
higher priced -four" was in excess
of 3S minutes.
Before the climb started, news
paper men of Los Angeles and Of
ficials of the A A. A checked the
competing cars for stock features
N order to be sure that every driv-
er had fulfilled requirements of the
run.
Bill Weeks of the Durant Motor
company drove the Star touring
car that set the new four cylinder
record, and was highly praised by
officials of the run, as we'll as his
associates for the remarkable way
he handled the car.

Invented Process

Neenah, Wis <l.A, To John
Stevens of Neenah, Wis, belonged the
honor of introducing the steel roller
process in the manufacture of flour
thereby revolutionizing the industry
and increasing the -four production OF
mills many fold.
Histories of the -four industry sell
dom have mentioned the name of John
Stevens in connection with the pro-
cess of the -four industry. He is some
times referred to as man who adj
vanced the Hungarian process. An in
vestigation, however, has shown that
Stevens never visited Hungary where
the roller process was tried until 1854
four years after his own patents had
been issued by the United States
patent Office.
The records of the many patents
Stevens obtained show that Stevens
was responsible for the invention OF
the steel roller process in the manu-
facture of -four. He received little
public credit for his discovery which
resulted in great advance in the
industry.
