Indicted YaUapai County
Bankers Seek Venue Change

PRESCOTT, June 16.-Denying that
he had yielded to pressure brought to
bear by depositors and consented to
employment of special prosecutors,
County Attorney E. S. Lynn today be-
gan the circulation of petitions to
counter those being circulated by de-
PENDANTS in the Yavapai county bank
cases seeking change of venue
The bankers today charged that the
special prosecutors would seek to
convict all those indicted for the
Winter bank crashes, filing a number
of petitions and affidavits in which
the county atmosphere was described
as hostile. Fair trials, the indicted
bankers contended could not be OBJ
tanned.
The first effect of the petitions
probable will be the continuance of
the cases to later term. The cases
! were set for this session of court.
Charges that 5000 depositors, smart
ing under their losses, have created
Opinions adverse" to the defendants
and that mass meetings and inflam-
matory utterances, both by the speak
ers and by local newspaper have
rendered Yavapai jury material unfit
to render an impartial verdict are
contained in the defendants support
ing affidavits to the petitions
Should a change of venue be grant
ed, it is likely that Flagstaff, county
seat of Coconino county, would be
selected under the state law cover
ing such cases

Il believe in the proper kind of edu-
cation, but I have seen very few
people who claim to be educated who
ever work. 1 have seen old mothers
bending over the wash tub and send

off to college, and when they get
out of college, instead of going back
home and helping, they go off some
where else.
When a good cotton hand gets a

got to be preacher with a long
tailed coat and beaver hat, or a
doctor or something, and he won't

Late Mrs. Herman Precht's
Sister Writes of Her DEATH
(Contributed)

Mrs Gertrude Precht of Apache
who died in this city. on June 9 of
bronchial pneumonia, was born in
Boone county Missouri, September IL
1877. She was married TO Herman
Precht on November Is, 1906, and to
this union was born five children
Mr.. Precht died nine years ago, leav-
ing his widow and three children,
Robert, Freida and Neva
Mrs Precht also leaves surviving
three brothers, Edgar, Thomas and
Turner Wright, all of whom reside
in Arizona; also one sister, Mrs. Alva
Davis, who resides in Paris, Mo.
She was a devoted mother and sis
ter and friend to all who knew her.
To live and love others was Aher
chosen way She loved her Lord with
all her heart, mind and strength.
This world of sorrow and woe did
not appeal to her She lived life
of service; she let her light shine. A
good example she set so that others
might follow in her footsteps, lead
ing to the throne of God.
These partings are sad and leave
wounds that time cannot heal; but we
can cherish sweet memories of our
dear, sweet sister, and rejoice that
Heaven does not seem far away. Oh,
how sweet to live in the righteous
way, when the dear Master calls we
can say we are ready.
oh, farewell, dear sister,
But the parting will not be long.
Oh, how sweet to thing she will be
Awaiting us on that golden shore of
eternity!

Picture Directors OF Filmdom Still
Divided As To Value And Worth OF
Color Photography In The Movies

HOLLYWOOD, June 16-Picture di-
rectors of filmdom are divided on
the use of color photography.
Some of them believe IL mas been a
distinct contribution to photoplays,
while there are others who believe
color will never take the place of
present Black and white films.
1.-THE Black Pirate, which critics
pronounced as one of the outstanding
pictures of the year, was done in
color throughout as a result of the
carefully arranged plans of Douglas
Fairbanks, and Albert Parker, his
director.
Color photography is exceedingly
dangerous" Parker said, "but when
properly used lends beauty and force.
There are only certain types of pic
lures in which it can be used eff
fectively. Those of great romance and
adventure, like The Black Pirate,
for example demand the use of color.
Snatches of Color Shock
eff color is to be used it must be
used throughout the film. Snatches
of color here and there are too abrupt
and shocking for the eye. They break
into the plays conference, thereby de-
tracing rather than adding to the
interest,"
On the other hand, James Cruze, of
Famous Players-Lasky, whose histori-
cal pictures have made long runs, be-
lieves color photography has not adj
vanced the industry.
"One reason for this is that the
public is not educated to it. Color
photography is something new and we
are so attracted to the beauty and
newness of the picture that we lose
all sense of story judgment and act
ing. For my part, I prefer a good
story bound in paper to a poor one
in gold leaf"
Sidney Olcott, who yields the meg
aphone for Inspiration pictures, does
not consider tints on the screen prac-
teal because they intrude on the dra-
matte action of the story or interrupt
the persistence of vision upon which
the cinema is dependent.
Malcolm ST. Clair, director of PoIa
Negri and Adolphe Menjou in a num-
Der of presentations, is firm in the
belief that Blacks whites and shades
are the charm of motion pictures
Some of our greatest artists have
made, their masterpieces in black and
white drawings" he said. We do not
want every object on the screen
definitely pictured in color and shape,

DIRECTORS OF
c. OF c. PROTEST
HIGHWAY STORY

The board of directors of the Doug
las Chamber of Commerce and Mines
met on Wednesday evening and APP
proved the drafting of letter to
State Engineer c. Lefebvre protest
ing the publication in the state high
way journal of map and a story
showing state attractions and roads
totally neglecting the southern sec
ton.
Committees were appointed for the
coming year and definite action was
voted toward placing signs at the
railroad station to tell the traveller
that this is Douglas and to invite a
stop-off. At the present time there
is no sign or marker at the station
that can be seen by the passengers
on the incoming trains and the cham
Der of commerce officials will ask
the railroad company to erect such a
sign, or permit them to do so.
In addition to the placing of a
large, attractive and well lighted sign
at the station, work is already under
way on display cabinet in which
some of the more outstanding prod
ucts of the district together with
pictures of the attractions of Doug
las and vicinity will be placed. This
cabinet will be set on the broad plat
form at the station so that everyone
may examine its contents and at
night it will be we'll lighted
The matter of the story and map
published in recent issue of the
state highway journal was thorough
ly discussed and it was brought out
that the Tucson Chamber of Com
merce, as we'll as other such bodies
in the southern part of the state are
preparing to protest the publication.
Copies of the journal were on hand
and to one unacquainted with the
state, the map published therein
would appear to be complete map
of the state, while it actually only
shows northern and central portions
The accompanying story boosting
the scenic attractions and the roads
does not mention the roads of CO.

wnders to be found here, although
the story is headed Through Ari-
