Rid Arizona Cattle Of
Scabies Now Being Waged
(By Dispatch A. P. wire)

Fl PHOENIX, March 10.-An intensive
campaign to rid Arizona cattle Of
scabies is being carried on by the
state veterinarian and livestock san
titary board, cooperating with the
bureau of animal husbandry, the
chairman of the sanitary board re-
ported today.
This campaign is in accordance
with the program agreed upon at a
meeting of the board in January.
Cowmen of the state are co-operar-
ing. Federal veterinarians, under
the supervisions of DR.. F. l.. Schreid-
er, in charge of the bureau of animal
husbandry in Arizona and New Mex
leo together with DR.. S. E. Douglas,
conducting a Thorough examination
of each quarantined or suspected
area. 1t is expected that such in%
spection will be completed by spring.
The report said Investigations SO
far indicate a very favorable condi-
tion and that the entire state will be
cleaned of scabies this year. The

Ask Local Chamber To
Support Metric System
Bill Now In Congress

Support of the Douglas Chamber of
Commerce and Mines is being sought
by the all-American Standards coun-
ell, with headquarters in San Fran
cisco, for the Britten metric stand
ards bill now before congress.
If passed, the measure would place
the United States on the metric basis
in merchandising after 1935-with
manufacturers continuing to use
whatever measures they desire in
production.
According to the standards council,
the measure would greatly benefit
the business of this nation both at
home and abroad. All other civilized
nations, the council states, except
Great Britain, have already adopted
the decimal metric standards and the
British situation has some peculiar
angles not relative to this country.
The San Francisco office of the or
ganization sponsoring the bill re-
quests that the local chamber APP
point a committee to consider it's
merits and if pleased with it, petit
tion congress for its passage.

S2289 RAISED
IN DRIVE FOR
Y.W.C. FUNDS

A total of $2289 was announced by
the chairman of the finance commit
tee, Mrs E. J. Huxtable, at the re-
cent meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the Y. w. c. A. Most of the
expected larger contributions have
been reported on so the amount
which must be raised for the MAIN
tenance of the Y. w. c. A. on its
lowest possible minimum will have to
come largely in smaller amounts.
Subscriptions have been received from
almost 200 individuals and business
firms.
"At least $17O0 more must be raised
if the Y. w. c. A. is to be continued
through 1926" was the statement
made by the president of the associ-
alton, Mrs. A. w. Cotton. "This will
be operating even then on a rigidly
cut budget allowing for no emergen-
cies, additional equipment, or expan-
sion"

BASSETT TALKS
ON AERO LOOPS
TO BIG CROWD


Speaking at the Baptist church last
night to large crowd, Evangelist
Carl Bassett took as his subject
aero Loops"
Every man and every woman VINO
is not a professed Christian, has
some excuse for not being" he stated
and then went on to tell of a trip
in an airplane in which every stunt
was executed.
'T want to talk about some of the
airplane loops some people fool with"
he added. There are hypocrites in
the church some say. But as long
as there are hypocrites in that insti-
tuition, if you are honest and a good
Christian you will forget the !1ypo-
critics and think of the hypocrisy of
that excuse for not joining.
"Some things which 1 do not un-
derstand is another loop which many
folks cling to. But l say that if l
understand everything in the Bible,
I would know that God had not writ
ten it. The very fact that we don't
understand everything in the Bible
shows that God had a hand in writ
ing it.
THE trouble with too many persons
is that they have too much cussed-
ness and meanness in them which
they do not want to give up. You
are afraid perhaps that you will have
to sacrifice some companions. You
are afraid perhaps that you would
have to stop going across the border
--or abandon some of your dishonest
methods in business.
''Then there is the loop-hole of mo-
rality. Some folks want to be shown
where they have one big fault They
say, I am not so bad, lead a good
life. But I say no one leads a good
life in Gods sight who leaves Christ
out There is such a thing as Christ
less morality-yet no one will ever
get to heaven without Jesus
Another loop hole is that of uni
versalism. Such adherents want to
blast the Bible out of existence. They
say there is no hell-God is all love.
But do not fool yourself. There is a
hell, the Bibl estates, and when you
face God. on the judgement day you
will find the word of God is true.
God has done everything to save
you and if you are lost it is your
own fault"

National Street And
Highway Safety Board
Urges Law Enforcement

Uniform and impartial enforcement
of traffic regulations is recommend
ed in the report of the enforcement
committee which will be submitted
to the national conference on street
and highway safety at it's national
sessions in Washington, d. c., March
90, the local chamber of commerce
has been informed.
Severe punishment, the report con-
tinues, is held to be the only means
by which certain traffic volators
can be prevailed upon to respect the
traffic laws and regulations. At the
same time the committee holds that
prevention of accidents and not VEN
geance upon those causing accidents
should be the ultimate aim, and the
value of warnings should be utilized
to the fullest extent.
Judge William McAdoo, chief city
magistrate of New York, who is
chairman of the committee, has also
outlined what the committee believes
should be the functions of traffic DO
lice. They should be specially trained,
he declared, and their major duty
should be to conduct traffic smooth
ly, expediciously and safely, although
they should make arrests when neces-
sary. They should not work under
cover, he said but should be in uni
form and openly active.
The courts have large responsi-
bility, according to the committee, 20
instill in the public respect for the
traffic laws by evenhanded treatment
of violators. while the intent and
attitude of the offender and his past
record should naturally be taken into
account" McAdoo continued, undue
clemency, based on big business and
social standing, or on pressure
brought to bear by persons of influ-
ence will bring the operations of the
courts into disrepute. Faith in the
courts is imperative"
The committee furthe pointed out
that pedestrians are involved in more
than half of all accidents in which
personal injury results, and urged
that traffic officers pay especial at
tention to the enforcement of regula-
tions in this connection.

Since publication of the predictions
several months ago that the tomb
would prove to be a royal one of un-
paralleled antiquity, Egypt has seeth-
ed with interest in the mystery
tomb" under the shadow of the great
pyramid. Yesterday the heavy veil of
censorship was partially lifted through
an official government communique,
in which DR.. Reisner was permitted
to give few details. 1t now definitely
is established that it is a tomb cen
turies older than any royal tomb pre-
viously discovered. 1t has not been
opened since the day when Cheops,
the pyramid builder. closed and sealed
the entrance. DR.. Roisner has not yet
been permitted to make any statement
of the great gold canopy over the
sarcophagus. AS previously reported
this canopy bears the cartouche or sig
nature of Senefru |. predecessor ana
possibly father of Cheops.
The furniture discovered in the
tomb is a thousand years older than
any relics of the kind ever diScov-
cred. The date of the sealing of the
tomb was 5000 Be, according to
Prof. Flinders Petrie's chronology, or
about 5000 BIC, according to DIR.

officials who were angered by news
paper controversies over King Tut
ankh-Amen's tomb, and therefore
decided to bottle up all information
of this most amazing discovery In the
history of archaeology In Egypt.
The statement which DR.. Reisner
was permitted to make today fol-
lows: Work on the intact royal tomb
discovered at Giza by the Harvard
Boston expedition was suspended
from January 20 to February IN
order to enable w. A. Stewart TO

may be that of King Senefru, who

last January.

ramid of Cheops. A person so re-
buried must have been a member of
his father or his mother. The mo-
tive of the reburial may have been
merely a pious desire of Cheops to
have his parent near himself in
death, but there may have been also
some necessity of hiding the body
from desecration by thieves" DR..
Reisner says.
THE alabaster sarcophagus could
not have been lowered into the new
tomb in q horizontal position. The
body must have been taken out for
the reburial and returned to the sar-
cophagus after the latter had been
placed in the chamber. During the

planning to call round table meet
ing of the legal departments of the
