Lost In Mountains
Mr.. Geo. H. Brown of Ajo, Ariz..
and his father. Mr. Bedford F.
Brown of San Diego, Calf, were Wis
itors in Phoenix recently and while
here were guests of Mr. M. H. Shell
ton, popular real estate dealer The
elder Mr.. Brown, who is 81 years
old, had a thrilling experience in
the mountains near Ajo. He became
separated from his party and for
seven days wandered in the noun
tains without food or drink. The
son hired an Indian trailer who
found his father, tired and hungry
but otherwise unaffected by the ex-
perience. Nearly all Ajo joined in
the man-hunt, as the younger Mr..
Brown, who has been a resident of
that town for some time, is one of
the leading citizens, well liked by
everyone. Mr.. Geo. H. Brown also
Is owner of some valuable property
in Phoenix, which he purchased
through the M. H. Shelton real es-

FLOURISHING u. S. TRADE

By the Associated Press
LONDON, May 15.-Comparison be-
tween the iourishing trade of the
United States and the depression in
Great Britain, which has been a sub.
ject of frequent reference in the Eng
lish press, is further emphasized to-
day by published accounts of the
speech at Detroit of julius Klein. di-
rector of the Bureau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce. Coming on the
heels of Secretary Hoover's recent re
ports, this is calculated to make Brit
iSh commercial mouths water
The Financial Times tries to cheer
its readers by assuring them editorial
ly that there is nothing necessarily
alarming for Great Britain whose
turn Will come, it says, adding:
There is no reason why the United
States and Great Britain should not
flourish side by side; there is room
for both in the world. The business
of this country is not to sit down and
worry, but to recognize that the coun-
try to which the greater degree of
success viii fall in the long run is
the one which can serve it's customers
