MONSTER RIFLE BEGINS
JOURNEY TOWARD WEST

Uncle Sans biggest and newest
mobile shooting iron, a 14-inch rifle
on a railway mount, started westward
Sunday from the Aberdeen, Md, army
proving ground, bound for California
over the trail, blazed by the pioneers
of 40.
Within two months it win be point
ing out over the Pacific from Fort
McArthur, 25 miles south of Los
Angeles.
The great gun and its mount meas
ures 95 feet in length and weighs
100000 pounds, exceeding the weight
of any locomotive yet built. The gun
will travel mounted on four trucks.
The railroad route westward had to
be carefully surveyed to insure safe
passage.
The journey was over the Pennsyl-
vania to Chicago with several stops
to permit public inspection of the huge
weapon.
The gun will take up the pioneer
trail following the Union Pacific line
from Omaha where it stops for a day
and half. Brief halts are to be
made at Fremont, Columbus, Grand
Island, North Platte, Sydney and
Laramie, with a day and a half lay
overs at Cheyenne and Ogden.

pROHI OFFICERS WARN
GLOBE PROPERTY OWNERS

Padlocking of all premises used for
bootlegging purposes may confidently
be anticipated in this district in the
immediate future, according to infor-
nation CLEANED from official quarters
this morning.
This policy is being adopted under
the imperative orders Of General An
drews, Of the United States treasury,
new head of prohibition enforcement.
The plan, briefly, is that from now
on the prohibition men will never miss
a bet. Up to the present, they have
been easy, they say, in the matter Of
prosecuting on minor charges, such as
possession and transportation when
charges of selling, carrying prison
terms, could have been preferred. But
now, nothing will be missed.
Every charge possible to bring
against a defendant will be brought.
This will include possession, trans
portation, manufacture, declaration OF
a nuisance and abatement proceedings.
The warning is freely given to prop
erty owners that, in the words of
Judge William H. Sawtelle, they will
suffer in the padlocking proceedings
whether or not they are aware of the
fact such premises were used for boot
Logging.

CAR COMPANIES TO PAY
STATE SIS, 600 IN TAXES

Private car companies will pay ap-l
proximately $4,000 to Arizona in
taxes this year, an increase of ap-
proximately $4,000, more than 25 per
cent over the total of last year, ac-
cording to an announcement recently
by members of the Arizona tax COM
mission.
The exact amount of the taxes to
be levied on private car companies
cannot be determined until the rate is
definitely fixed. The rate, however,
probably will be determined Monday,
the commission announced.
Private car companies are those
which own railroad rolling stock
operated in or through this state.
Typical companies are the Pullman
company, meat packers who own their
own refrigerator cars, and express
companies.
While the increased revenue from
the tax is partially due to the fact
that the rate this year probably will
be higher, the rate primarily is the
result of increased prosperity which
has caused increased traffic in the
state, it was declared. The gain o.
25 per cent in a single year is char
acterized as being one of the fast
striking reflections of growth in Ari
zona that is given by the state tax
rolls, members of the commission said.
The value of the property assessed
is fixed by determining the number
of miles that rollino stock of the var
ious companies has travelled in Ari-
zona. Through this figure, the COM
,,o;~ ;~c;or1 actiy,o ofac tho arooIip+ of prOr-
erty Of each company that has been
constantlv in the state.
The rate applied on the property IS
the average of all tax rates in the
state, the object being to fix rate
which equals the average paid by pri-
vate citizens Of Arizona. Every tax
levied in Arizona by the state, coun-
ties, school districts and other dis
tricts is a factor in determining the
private car company rate.

DRASTIC SHAkEUP IN POST
OFFICE AT PHOENIX, ARIZ

Effective October 6, a number Of
important changes were made in the
executive force of the Phoenix post
office. j. A. Giffen, for Id years SUI
perintendent of mails, is to be sue
ceeded by William E. Ferrall, now as
sistant postmaster at Bisbee.
Mr.. Ferrall was a clerk in the local
office a number of years ago, trans
ferring to Savannah and thence to the
Canal Zone, where he was postmaster
at Batun and other points.
Changes also are to be made in the
positions OF assistant superintendent
of mails, superintendent of distribu-
tion, superintendent of outgoing
mails, foreman of the mailing room
and chief money order clerk. 1t is
reported that in no case is there in
timation of insubordination or mis-
feasance. Each demotion is of en-
ployes long in service and of ap-
preciated faithfulness.
The only reason given for the
changes is that the growing business
of the office, the largest between Ell
Paso and Los Angeles, demands some
what more active supervisory methods
than those that have been in effect.
Postmaster James A. Jones, Assist
ant Postmaster Lee Callahan and the
division of finance appear to have
been untouched in the shakeup order
ed. Phoenix is the depository office
for the state, for postal and money
order funds, as well as the supply CEN
ter for all stamp stock and stamped
paper.

STATE CANCELS GRAND
DIAMOND CREEK PERMIT

The state permit granted to James
K. Grand and the Colorado River En-
gineering and Development company
in 1922 for the construction of a power
dam at the Diamond Creek site on the
Colorado river, was ordered cancelled
by State Water Commissioner Frank
P. Trott Saturday. The order was
granted after Attorney General Muir
ply had given an opinion that actual
construction work on the Diamond
Creek dam did not begin within the
time required by the conditions of the
permit.
Since obtaining the state permit
Grand and his associates have been
attempting to obtain a permit from
the federal power commission for the
construction work and this application
has been set for hearing on October
20. in Washington.
In the opinion of Attorney General
Murphy, that brought about the can
collation. of the state permit, it is held
that the work performed at the Dia-
mond Creek site was merely prelimin-
ary work and could not be considered
actual construction work under any
conditions. Therefore" the opinion
says, "all rights under said app.ica-
tion reverted to the state, and the APP
plication was revoked by operation of
the law on the 25th day Of December,
1928"

WILL DISCUSS
PLANS TO KEEP
MONEY IN STATE
TC Consider Gov. SOrlie's Idea
for Putting Surplus Funds
in State Banks

Plans for putting the states money
to work within the state will be con-
>idcrcd at a conference here Deccm-
bcr = Of committee representing
the state bankers association and
the state industrial commission.
The bankers will come prepared TO
submit to the industrial commission
recommendations as to the terms on
which the Bank Of North Dakota
should deposit in other banks
throughout the state a part Of the
SO .OOC, 900 surplus fund which it now
has on hand. At present most Of
this money is on deposit in banks
in the Twin Cities. Chicago and New
York. The plan is to bring it back
to North Dakota and make it avail
able to aid in dcve loping. the state.
Sorlic Droached Plan
The plan first was broachcd to
the bankers by Governor A. G.. Sor-
lie at conference in Fargo several
weeks ago. At that time he asked
them to outline the conditions on
which tho Bank Of North Dakota
should deposit in tho smaller banks
a part Of its surplus funds. II ia
nccc Ssary. he pointed out. that the
Rank Of North DaAo.a DC adequately
secured.
1t is expected that modification
Of the plan adopted by the federal
reserve banks in loanins money to
member banks may ultimately be
adopted. Under such plan the
smaller banks would deposit with
, the bank Of North Dakota approved
collateral to serve as security for
the state deposit.
Place Money Only In Sound Banks
Governor Sorlc has proposed that
| the money deposited in smaller
banks bear interest at the rate of
two and a half per cent. OF the
money thus collected in interest the
one half per cent would go into a
reserve or sinking fund to meet pos
sible losses.
Under the system which the bank
! crs arc expected to advocate and
which the industrial commission may
approve. a premium would be plac-
ed on good banking by depositine
the states money only in those
banks which arc on sound and sta
bic footing. 1t is expected that the
requirements suggested by G
bankers will stress this point. Tho
size Of the bank will have nothing to
do with the question Of whether OF
not it is entitled to deposit OF
state money, although it is expected
that a provision will be made where
BY no bank will receive a deposit
larger than the banks capital stock
