ARIZONA ADMITTED TO u. S. VITAL
STATISTICS REGISTRATION AREA AS
NEW STATE LAW PROVES IT'S WORTH

Phoenix-Arizona has been in
cluded in the United States vital
statistics registration area, accord
ing to word received by DR.. F. T.
Fahlen, state superintendent of
public health and made public The
admitance includes both registra-
ton Of births and deaths, it was
stated.
Notice that the state had been ad-
mitted to the area was sent by the
United States Bureau of Census, at
Washington, D. c., and follows an
investigation and check of the vital
statistics registration made during
the latter part of August by an in
vestigator from the bureau.
To be included in the registration
area, the vital statistics kept by a
state must exceed 80 per cent regis
tratiOn of the actual births and
deaths. The recent check made
showed that the vital statistics bu-
reau for the state was registrating
better than 80 per cent and the
state was admitted to the area.
A statement regarding the aamis-

fall lettuce acreage, were August's
main agricultural Developments.
"The copper market was practl-
caIly unchanged during the month,
closing at IA 3-8 cents. Stocks on
hand at the beginning of August
had been reduced to 64,940 tons, a
new low record in recent years and
a decrease of 1136 tons in July.
FORMATION of the Copper Export
Trading company has been followed
with considerable interest, as it is
believed it's operation will be of
much assistance in foreign ship
! mentS.
"In Arizona, development work
and new construction have gone
forward rapidly At last reports
the $6,O00,000 teaching plant of the
Inspiration Consolidated Copper
company was to be completed in
September and in operation in
October; the $1,250,000 recon
struction work at the Copper
Queen smelter at Douglas was to be
finished around the first of the
year; the Old Dominion Copper
company at Globe is completing ad-
ditional milling facilities to in
crease it's capacity about 800 tons
a day, to 1000 or 1,700.
Copper production in the state
this year probably will be slightly
above the 1925 record, according to
estimates from authentic sources"

ATTY. GEN. DECIDES ELECTION RECOUNT
LAW NOT APPLICABLE TO PRIMARIES

Phoenix-Sections No. 1 and 2 of
Chapter 20 of the Session Laws
of 1925, providing for recounts of
the vote received by candidates
when the majority obtained by one
candidate over the other is less
than a stated amount, do not apply
to primary elections, according to
an opinion given James H. Kerby,
secretary of state, by John w. Muir
ply, attorney general
The question of whether a re-
count of returns where the winning
candidate won by less than one
tenth of one per cent of the vote
cast should be made, came up fol-
lowing the primary election and
Mr.. Kerby asked the attorney gen
eral for an opinion of the law.
Mr.. Murphy in his opinion, states
that the sections in question, and in
fact the whole session law referred
to, applies entirely to elections
where state officers or county Off
GERS are to be elected or to cleo
tions where special measures are
voted on, and does not apply to
primary elections for nomination.
Any recounts of votes for nomin-
ations in the primary election, Mr..
Murphy, states must be made in ac-
cordance with the law providing
for contests of elections.
Sections one and two of Chapter
20 of the Session laws of 1926 pro-

The keystone sackman and third
baseman waited in vain.
According to reports there was
on exceptionally large crowd to
witness the games, due to the fact
that the big annual festival was
held On that day and the Indian
folk gathered from far and near
to take in" the good time.
The game was only a six inning
exhibition on account of it being
the second of double header bill
and had to be called in order for
the Winslowites to catch their train
back home. 1t was, however, de-
cided before the game started to
play only six frames.
This game piled up the third
straight victory for the local San
ia Fe Indian club with the last
two being shutouts. In completing
their season the team played a
total of % "bat crossing" exhibi-
tions. Of these they won IA, lost
8 and played one ten INNING tie
score contest. After all it "said
and done" their average stands at
.637. The Meteor City can we'll be
proud of the boys.

sion of the state to the United
States registration area was issued
by DR.. Fahlen and is as follows:
For several years the state board
of health has had in view a more
complete registration of births and
deaths. With the idea of bettering
the registration, or conforming to
the standards adopted in practical
ly all other states in the union, a.
model vital statistics law was plac-
ed before the legislature in 1924
and passed, becoming law in that
year. This law has proven very
effective in obtaining the registra-.
ton of births and deaths, and has
worked out to the satisfaction of
everyone. This is shown by the
fact that we are now getting over
80 per cent registration of both
births and deaths in the state.
THE idea of the vital statistics
law was to ultimately get the state
OF Arizona in the registration area
OF the United States and to have
the registration figures of this de-
partment accepted by the federal
government !"

Large Arizona Mining
Development Program
Is Nearing Completion

New development in the mining
industry remained exceedingly ac-
tive and several large construction
and Improvement programs are
now nearing completion, according
to the Arizona business review for
August, issued Saturday by the Ari-
zona Industrial congress.
General business was reported to
have remained at a good level and
reports from widely varied num-
Der Of lines, both wholesale and re-
tail were said to bear out earlier
statements that summer recessions
were less noticeable thar in former
years.
Ending of the vacation season,
says the review, from all indica-
tions, is to be followed by an active
fall, with every prospect of con-
tinued expansion.
In agriculture, major interest
has turned to cotton. The crop is
in good condition, and picking is
becoming general earlier than US
ual. The first government fore
cast, based on the crops condition
September 1, indicated production
of 1O4,O bales. Fall lettuce acre
age in both the Salt River and
Yuma Valleys is expected to show
large increase, and winter ship
ments should set a record for the
state.
I'm livestock there has been lit
tie of Importance. Stock is in
good shape, but range conditions
have shown some decline Con-
tracts of feeder cattle for fall de-
livery is just beginning, and lambs
have continued to bring good
prices
considerable expansion in the
states lumber industry is forecast
for the remainder of the year. The,
big McNary plant of the Cady Lum-
Der corporation has resumed opera
tiOns after a several months shut
down for extensive improvements,
and the rebuilt plant of the Stand
ard Lumber company, which had
been destroyed by fire, is to be
started this fall Several new man
ufacturing plants have been estab-
lished in the state since spring.
General construction of all kinds
has been brisk.
Checking transactions in princi-
pal cities of the state as reported
to the Arizona Industrial Congress
showed both increases and decreas-
es from July figures, but were we'll
above those for August of last year.

vide that where the majority of
one candidate over the other is less
than one tenth of one per cent,
recount shall be ordered by the
officials, but that no recount shall
be ordered where the majority is
in excess of 200 votes.
Opinion of officials vary as to the
Interpretation of that part of the
law, some holding that it means
that a recount must be made at the
states expense where the majority
is less than 200, while others hold
that it means that no recount shall
be ordered where the one tenth of
one per cent exceeds 200.
