NEED FOR U. S.
COMMERCIAL AIR
WAYS DISCUSSED

The attention of the members of
the Douglas Chamber of Commerce
has been called to the alleged need
for prompt passage of federal legis-
lation to regulate, encourage and
promote commercial aviation. A COM
munication from the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States at
Washington states that such legis-
lation should aim to promote the es-
tablishment of the facilities and aux
iliary services necessary to the de-
velopment of this system of trans
portation.
The National Chambers attitude
toward aeronautic legislation, it is
explained, is based on a resolution
adopted at the chambers twelfth
annual meeting, which reads as fol-
lows:
"The development of areonautics
in the United States is of growing
importance for the transportation
of valuable commercial commodities,
for business mail, for engineering
purposes and scientific Investigations
for patrol of forest reserves against
the constant menace of fire, and for
the national defense. With a view
to furthering aeronautic development,
we favor the prompt adoption of
legislation now pending for the regu-
lation and Encouragement of areo-
nautics, including the creation of a
Bureau of Civil Aeronautics in the
Department of Commerce, and we
ask the Enactment of suitable leg-
islation for the permanent establish
ment of an adequate air mail serv-
ice between the larger cities of the
country
It is pointed out by the national
chamber that laws have been en-
acted by few municipal and state
governments with view to con-
trolling the flight of aircraft within
their jurisdiction. While in some in
stances an attempt has been made
to follow a uniform basis in these
laws and regulations others differ
materially in their provisions. Uni
formity will be promoted through
a federal law to govern interstate
air navigation and thus help to
avoid the confusion resulting from
varying state enactments.''
The communication explains that

equally deserving of the states So
.lioitude and support. Agricultural
colleges and other state agencies
must be identified with the farmers
interests in these projects before ir-
rigated agriculture on raw land can
be successful and warrant these ex-
penditures The failure of some ex-
listing projects to attract and hold
an adequate settlement to meet even
operating expenses should warn us
when contemplating new projects
thaa they too may fail for want of
farmers.
st am anxious to bring to your
attention this feature in the depart
ment's BILL" continued the secre-
tary, "and to assure you of my be-
lief that the feasibility of new pro-
jects depends on continuing in
force the law which contemplates
state cooperation in the operation
of reclamation projects. 1t will serve
to relieve members of congress from
the opportunities of contitutents to
secure appropriations for unworthy
projects and states approval
would become such guarantee of a
project that congress would feel
warranted in making requested ap-
preparation.
Reclamation has reached crisis
in its history. 1t can go on safely
and successfully from this point if
plans for prompt development and
intelligent use of water are pro-
vided. Failure to reimburse either
the farmer for his labor or the

ATTEND FUNERAL
OF ]. GREENWAY
lnA Disnatcn a. p Mirc1

AJO, Jan. 26.-Three thousand
sorrowing friends gathered at this
small mining camp today to pay
their last respects to John Camp,
bell Greenway. soldier, athlete, en-
gineer and empire builder who died
a week ago today in New York
City.
On a small knoll overlooking one
of the many mining properties he
had developed, the noted citizen
was laid to rest while comrades and
friends from all walks of life paid
tribute.
Rough Riders with whom he had
served in Cuba, Veterans of the
world war grizzled prospectors,
mine executives, miners, business
men and state officials gathered
for the last rites.
Men who had soldered with Green
way in the Cuban campaign of the
Rough Riders, headed by Herman
Hagedorn, president of the Roosevelt
Memorial association, barred their
heads in sorrow at the passing of
captain and comrade. Veterans of
Chateau Thierry, st. Mihiel and the
Argonne came hundreds of miles to
say a last farewell to the great
colonel. Reserve officers now active
in military affairs said a solemn
farewell to the general of the 205th
infantry brigade Arizona's greatest
soldier had hardened to his last taps.
Prospectors who had sat around
camp fires in Arizona, Mexico and
Nevada with Greenway, when he sue
cessfully. Sought the hidden treasures
70 gold, copper and lead, bowed in
silent sorrow with the throngs of
miners from Bisbee, Ajo and Los
Lamientos, who had worked with
Greenway in the prosperous days of
his administrations. Mine officials
add their modicum to the great sor-
row of the multitude A miner and
an engineer had passed on.
State and county dignitaries, head
ed by Governor Hunt and ex-Gov-
arnor Campbell, came to pay official
honors and to express personal grief
at the passing of a great ArizoEan.
Bankers and truck drivers, mine
officials and railroaders, miners,g busi-
ness men and farmers, all stood in
stoical sorrow while their friend and
their companion was lowered to his
last resting place.
Tonight stars shine down upon the
new maze grave of one of Arizonas
great men, Many hunters are tell
ing of the prowess of a great hunter
who has gone to rest. Grizzled old
prospectors tell of the nights spent
with Greanway around the camp fires.
Comrades of Cuba and the World war
tell of his courage and bravery that
brought to Greenway the distinguish
ed service cross of the United States,
the Croix de Guerre with two palms.
the Order of the Legion of Honor and
the CroiX de Letoile Noire. Miners
are telling of Coleraine and the Me-
saba range of Bisbee and Ajo and
Valedon of Erupcion and Ahumada.
and citizens are discussing
the public spiritedness of the man,
while plain people of the southwest
are telling of the loss of a friend,
an advisor and an exemplar.

chance of interference from S. o. s
calls which hindered the tests during
the first two nights, the broadcast
ers began with high hopes. Their
only fear was that the aurora borea
lis, which affected telegraphfc com
munication today and tonight, might
impair reception. h1
The most ambitious program was
that of station voc, Davenport,
Iowa, and WYG, Schenectady, in
seeking to encircle the world with
popular musical numbers. In efforts
to reach into the jungles of South
Africa and touch remote citie& like
Capetown, Melbourne, Australia or
other points in the ant:podes, it was
arranged to broadcast on four wave
elngths.
Two of these were used by woo,
the original broadcaster, which plan
ned to make announcements in Is
languages, while WGY picked up
the program to re-broadcast it on
shorter wave lengths.
From all parts of the north Amer
lean continent at 10 o'clock music
began winging through the air while
listeners on the British Isles and the
continent waited with chad sets and
loud speakers. Station WMAC began
to tell the overseas listeners how
American fans had heard European
broadcasters last night.
When the American hour was end
ed North America was silent and the
flow of music and conversation
changed it's course as Wales Scot

operation of local commercial or
ganizations, has made study of the
commercial possibilities Of aeronau-
tics in various parts of the country.
"This study, the letter states,
shows an increased interest in this
new form of transportation and
brings out the opinion that in many
localities commercial conditions are
conductive to the successful opera
tion of commercial air lines
Air transportation, the letter
goes on to say, can readily and to
a large degree, be coordinated with
the present forms of transportation,
including road, express, interurban
electric, motor bus and truck fa-
cilities for the collection and dis
tribution of goods in territory sur
rounding air terminals. The present
indications are that tese facilities
can be utilized to advantage over
a radius of 80 to 800 miles, depend
ing on the locality
sAn increasing number of landing
fields are being established by mu-
inequalities alongN the air lanes, as
the cost of providing these fields
would generally be too great for a
commercial air line TO undertake,
and it would be practically impos-
sible to limit their use to the owners
in case they were privately estab-
lished Indiana, Kansas, Pennsylva-
mia, ard wisconsin have passed laws
authorizing municipalities to acquire
and maintain landing fields.
"An important feature of proposed
legislation which would aid in the
development of air navigation is that
providing for navigational aids to
aircraft similar to aids for vessels
at sea and including aerial light
ming signal stations, meteorological
services and radio facilities"

Be SURE THAT
YOU EXHIBIT
AT The FAIR

| Those persons who have not already
studied the premium list for the sixth
annual Cochise county fair have but
few days in which to do so. There
are exhibits listed in the little book
that anyone could make or produce
and the more people there are ex-
hibiting the greater will be the sue
cess of the fair and the greater WI:
be the satisfaction in winning prizes.
Many man or woman Is going
to visit the fair and find exhibits WITH
blue ribbons on them that are noc
as good as the same thing running
about in their back yards at home
and these people will cry out that
they did not know that there was
a chance to exhibit these things
The fair association wants every
exhibit that has any merit to it.
Anyone having any new breed of
stock or poultry is missing a big
chance to introduce It to the public
if it is not exhibited. In the differ
ent home departments in past years
it seems that the best things in the
county have not been shown. Many
women having absolutely marvellous
specimens of needlework In their
homes have failed to take them to
the fair just because they were too
busy or did not think of It.
Z That is the wrong system. The
fair is for all of Cochise. county and
everyone living in this county actu-
ally owns a few shares of stock in
the Cochise county fair. Everyone
has an equal right to the exhibit
space, other things being equal, and
the public is urgently requested to
study the premium list and see that
a good display of everything listed
in it is on hand for the opening
of the gates to the visitors. The
premium list contains very :argo
variety to choose from in deciding
what you have that would be most
likely to take blue ribbon.
In entering exhibits the tags anc
