A tendency toward moderately low
er levels of activity has developed /
several branches Of trade and indus
try in recent weeks, states the cur
rent issue of the Guaranty Survey,
published by the Guaranty Trust COM
pany of New York.
This is especially true of retail
trade, which has been adversely af-
fected by extremely u~nfavOrable
weather in many sections of the coun
try, the Survey continues. The trend
Of manufacture and distribution in
general has been characterized by a
fair degree of stability, although here
also curtailment has been reported
in some lines.
These recessions, however, are due
at least in part to purely seasonal
factors, and do not necessarily indi-
cate any significant change in the
general situation. On the whole, it
c that the volume of business
is at least as large as a year ago, and
that confidence with respect to the
~near-term outlook is unimpaired.
Basic Industries Continue Active
Activities in most of the basic in
dustries is still very high, despite the
recessions of the last few weeks. That
the rate of manufacture was some
what in excess Ct current orders was
indicated by the decrease Of 150,625
tons during the month in untitled or
dels on the books of the United States
Steel corporation. At the end Of jan
uary, however, operations were at a
considerably reduced rate, and some
further curtailment has been taken
since. The slowing down of SEIZED
ules has been due in part to the alb
normally high price of coke resulting

RHODES SCHOLARS
GET MORE MONEY

Rhodes scholars from the United
States and Canada during the past 20
years, according to a statement of
the American secretary of the Rhodes
trust, have made almost identical aca-
demic records at Oxford university.
Among the 420 candidates for ap-
pointment considered at the last cleo
ton Of scholars to enter the univer-
sity in October, 1925, Ohio led with
80 candidates, and Pennsylvania had
80. The stipend has been increased
recently, and the 80 men elected will
have an unusual income of 400 pounds
each for the three years of their
residence at Oxford.

Business and Financial Conditions
in the United States

from its popularity as a domestic 1uel
substitute. Steel prices, en- the other
hand, have continued to recede slow
ly, further emphasizing the need foI
an adjustment of plant operations to
current demand.
The automobile industry is cOnsid-
erably more active than w before
at this season. While there has been
some accumulation of stocks in the
hands of dealers, the tendency has
been less pronounced than might be
supposed in view of the heavy output.
The used car situation, however, con-
tinues to be a source of some concern.
The volume of new building under
taken last month was somewhat
smaller than in December, but was
much larger than the previous sea-
sonal record.
Prices and Money Rates
The general trend of commodity
prices has been downward since the
first of the year. A moderate down
ward tendency has been visible also in
money rates, though the decline ap-
pears to have been checked in the last
fortnight. In fact, call loan rates
have moved upward, while time loan
and commercial paper rates have re-
NAMED firm since the beginning of
this month, but at a level perceptibly
below that of the closing weeks of
1925.
The initial reports Of the New York
Stock exchange and the Federal Re-
serve board on loans to brokers show
a total volume Of credits based on Sc
curity collateral considerably n ex-
cess Of the advance estimates, al
though their exact significance is
doubtful in the absence of any def
mite basis of comparison.

OBITUARY

Mrs. Valeria Gray of Bluehill
died suddenly, after short illness,
at the home of her daughter, Har-
riet Grindle. She was always an
active and ambitious woman and did
her daily work until the day she was
taken ILL.,
Mrs. Gray will be greatly missed
among her friends and relatives, for
she had happy, lovable disposition
and was sympathetic friend to every

She was the only child of Nahum

back to the town she loved so well,
and to her many friends there
Mrs. Gray's mother was the last
one of the old Brakeman family, of
Brooksville, whose ancestors sailed
directly from Holland to Cape
Rozler and lived in that town until
the war of 1872, when their home
was destroyed. They moved to Cas-
tine and bought what is known as
the Dr. Mann residence. Mrs. GRAY
was descendant of Lord Brakeman
and also of Martin Van Buren,. the
eighth President of the United
| States.
Besides host of friends. she

WINSLOW BOOSTS
FOR NEW SHORTER
ROAD TO PHOENIX

The fact that Winslow has been
boosting for a more direct route
to Phoenix, one that will cut 100
miles off the distance now neces-
sary to travel, is being brought
before the Phoenix public by VIM.
Nagle, formerly president of the
Winslow Commercial Club, accord
ing to news dispatches received
this week.
According to the Arizona ga
zette", Nagle explained that bust
ness relations between WinsIow
and the capitol are strengthening
all the time. and that the proposed
new road, which would cut through
Long Valley and connect with the
highway that Low comes through
Pine and Payson, would m can
more automobile travel between
the two cities.
Magic further complimented the
Gazette on its "See Arizona First"
campaign, and stressed the advant-
ages that Navajo county has to
offer to the vacationist.

Cotton declared. Not that we do

young people of the state to enter
the profession, we must erect a
barrier equal in strength to that of
our neighbor state, California,

"The professional qualifications
and standards for teachers in Ari-
zona are high" the educator de-
clared. ''Yet we must strive to
make them higher We should re-
quire one quarter or more work in
the state before a certificate shall
be issued to teachers from other
states who wish to teach here.
"The greater per cent of the
teachers who come here from other
states have no vital interest in the
community in which they are taa-
ching They are here for a COM
paratively short time, many of
them for year or two only. They
pay no taxes. Their classroom
work and outside activities are not
vibrant to the life fthe community.
They are here merely to see the
country They are only sQuatters--
just nesters in the narrow sense"
Dr. Cotton continued.
Competition of this kind is de-
trimental to the state and unfair
to the young people in training in
our state schools for the teaching
profession. 1t is something deeper
than it appears to be on the sur
face. 1t is condition that is here,

Arizona Is Not Doing Justice In Employing
Outside Teachers, Instead OF Our Product
Says DR.. Cotton Of The N. A. 7. College

Associations can be Of great help.
Arizona Industrial Congress should
make an investigation of these con.
ditions. Every newspaper in thu
state should give lending hand, -
said Dr. Cotton.
1--WE are ever attempting to sell
and purchase Arizona products.
Campaigns are put on through the
newspapers of the state to encour-

The graduates of our state schools
are products of Arizona and should
be considered in this light by the

intendents of Arizona. The grad
uates of our schools should be
given preference" he declared.
"It is true" DR.. Cotton further
pointed out, that school superin-
tendents and boards of education
receive daily many APPLICATIONS
from teachers outcide of the state
