to themselves, because Congress can

Power With Executive.
The appointment Of ambassadors

Apropos Of the attitude Of the

follows:
The contracting powers agree not
TO have recourse to armed force for
the recovery of contract debts claimed
from the government of one country
by the goyernme ent of another country
az being due its nationals. This un-
[lertaking is, however, not applicable
when the debtor state refuses or
ncglects to reply to an offer of arbi-
prevents any compromise from being
agreed upon. or after the arbitation
fails to submit to the award.
The submission OF disputes arising
cut of the failure TO collect debts in
wolves a special procedure by treaties
with various countries, but in the
main the United States has been
bound to a pacific settlement of such
controversies. Thus there is no

ROAD FROM FLAGSTAFF TO
Stafford ONLY IA HOURS

V. W. Sabin, who has entered the.
employ of the Kelly Printing & Pub
fishing Co., rolled into Stafford Mon
day afternoon by auto from Flagstaff,
"a distance of approximately 260 miles
making the trip in ID hours driving
time.
Mr.. Sabin designates the highway
from Flagstaff to Stafford, as. one of
the scenic highways of the state, and
describes the trip as follows
Zone of the most beautiful scenic
drives in Arizona is over the highway
from Flagstaff to Stafford, via Lake
Mary, Mormon lake and Roosevelt.
The distance is 260 miles, and over an
almost perfect highway, with the ex-
ceptlon of short distances in Coconino
county due to new construction work
from Mormon lake to Long Valley. 1t
may we'll be called the high drive of
Arizona. 1t keeps well to the sum-
nit Of the high mountains nearly all
the way, adding much to the beauty of
the drive. There are no bad grades,
though some rather long ones.
For tourists and local residents go
ing to the Grand Canyon, it is a great
saving in mileage, besides passing
through number of fertile valleys
of the state and several resorts.
"The writer left Flagstaff late Sun
day morning and stopped at Mormon
lake for lunch, where hundreds of
people from various parts of the state
were camping for the summer. A
large number of parties from other
states also were there enjoying the
cool weather and the fine fishing.
From Mormon lake to Long Val
ley, we found several short detours
along the road but none of them can
be termed bad. 1t is slow, but the
heavy forest and beautiful scenery
keeps the mind from the road.

rather rough, rocky places, slowing
up some on time. From the Gila

gravel. Soon after this we came to

before dreaded. There is an easy
grade either up or down and good

we found the town of Pine, in one of
the richest small valleys in the state.
