DRASTIC DRY
BILL PASSES

CBy Dispatch A. P. wirel

WASHINGTON, April
27.-By a vote Of 1856 to 4
the house today passed a
administration bill propos-
ing drastic revision Of the
dry law enforcement ina
chinery in the treasury, in
cluding the creation Of a
bureau of prohibition. The
measure, which now goes
to the senate, was approved
after an amendment by
Representative LaGua1dia,
progressive socialist, New
York, to legalize the safe
of 2.75 per cent beer, had
been thrown out on a point
of order.
The four votes against the bill were
cast by Representative Auf Der Heidc.
New Jersey, and Black. Cullen and
somers, New York, all democrats. The
proposal weathered nearly a dozen
amendments and was passed as report

reorganization in the prohibition unitn
effected last August by Secretary Mel
Ion and besides the prohibition bureau
would create a bureau of customs.
The new bureaus would be headed
by commissioners appointed by the
secretary of the treasury. Wet mem
bers offered no formidable opposition,
a number supporting the bill on the
ground that it would make prohibit
tion enforcement more drastic, Repre-
sentative Hill, republican, Maryland,
recognized wet leader in the house,
voted for it. Debate covered virtual
ly the whole range of the contro-
versial subject of prohibition.
Urging passage of the BILL Repre-
sentative Champion, republican, Mich
igan, a dry leader, endorsed the pro-
hibition administration under Assist
ant Secretary Andrews. He asserted
Andrews has shown zeal and sue

"Don't give a man the hardest job
in the United States and criticize
him After La Guardia had accused
drys of acting in bad faith because
they would not accept another amend
ment by him, Champion asserted he
did not care for a lecture from
either recent converts to prohibition
or those who are not converts at ALL"
La Guardia's other amendment
would have forbidden prohibition unit
employees to receive any salary other
than from the government, and was
aimed chiefly at F. C. Baird, who
testified before the senate prohibi-
tion committee that while dry law
administrator at Pittsburgh he con-
tinued to receive a salary of $4,000
annually as a railroad official. The
amendment was rejected on a point

PRESCOTT - Ten true bills,
charging them with receiving de-
posits after the institution was

Boy Injured In Fall
From Wagon, Dies

SAFFORD-Harry Pace, little g.
year-old boy of Mr.. and Mrs. Pratt
Pace of Thatcher, was almost in
stantly killed last Friday morning
at the w. w. Pace farm, near that
town.
The little fellow while waiting
for his parents to get ready to take
him to town, went out and climb
ed into the spring seat Cf the wa
gon which was hitched to the
horses in front of the house. The
child was jumping up and down in
the seat when the cushion on the
seat fell out, taking the little boy
with it. This frightened the horses
and they started, running but few
steps. The cushion, which was an
automobile seat turned over, and
the little boy lay across the springs
while the hind wheen of the wa
gon passed squarely across the
child's body, crushing him. He was
still conscious when his parents
picked him up and said he had only
hurt his ankle, but within less than
half hour Harry was dead.

COUNTY CLERK
SUM MMONED In
FEES DISPUTE

PHOENIX - George e. Waite,
clerk of the superior court of
Apache. county, has been cited by
the supreme court in an alterna-
tive by the court, to appear on May
8. 1926, at 10 o'clock and show
cause why the writ should not be
made permanent.
The alternative writ directs the
clerk to file, without charging any
fee. the demurrers and plea in bar,
of Andrew T. Hammons, state su-
perintendent OF banks and ex-off1clo
receiver of the Bank Of WinsloW, IN
the case of George Jarvis, county
treasurer of Apache county against
Hammons as receiver OF the DanK.
/ According to the petition filed by
Mr.. Hammons asking for the writ
Of mandamus Waite, as clerk OF
/ the court, refused to file the de-
murrers and plea in bar for Mr.
Hammons without the payment OF
a filing fee.
Mr.. Hammons, in his petition,
I states. that he had obtained an
opinion from the office of the at
torney general which stated that
as a state official he did not have
to pay the filing fee, and that ne
sent both the papers to be filed
and the opinion to the clerk on
April 20. On April %, the clerk
refused to file them and sent them
back. acting under an opinion from
tho county attorney of Apache
county that fee must be collected.
The question as to whether Mr..
Hammons, as ex-officio receiver OF
the bank, is state official, will be
the main point to be determined in
the hearing of the matter. He con-
tends that he is, while Apache
county officials contend that he IS
not acting in the capacity of state
officer in that instance.

Large Brown Bear
Killed BY Hunter
In MogoIlon Hills

PRESCOTT-The hide of a large
brown bear, a species said to be
almost extinct in this section, was
brought into Prescott by John Cos
wick of Camp Verde last week upon
his return from a hunting trip in
to the MogOllon mountains. The
bruin was killed after Goswick and
his dogs had chased him for eight
hours.
Mr.. Goswick sighted four bears
while on the trip. He trailed one
OF the animals for IA hours with
out getting close enough to fire an
effective shot, he said, although he
wounded the animal.

last few days because he has moth
ing worse than smallpox. Last
week he didn't give a whoop whe-
ther school kept or not while he
entertained at an energetic case of
flu which had ambitions to gradu-
ate as pneumonia. Since he sur
vived that attack and has broken
out with smallpox he feels much
better and about the only serious
complaint he has to offer is that he
is kept in the house. He is count
ing the days of his jailhood which
now number into the teens.

Being An Economic Factor
In the Community Served
The true function of this
Store, as we see it, is that of
serving as a purchasing and
distributing agent for the people
of the community and the out
lying districts.
When the merchant enters
business he assumes the respon-
sibility of providing commodi-
ties and services to his commu-
nifty in a way that will afford
economy and convenience.
If he fails in this response
bility, he ceases to be an eco
norlic factor in the community
which he essays to serve.
Since the first Store in this
Nationwide institution of de-
partment stores was opened in
1902, the outstanding ambition
has been to serve all alike and
well. That we have succeeded
is proved by Our rapid growth.

Saving IL the Differences

waving 40 sAO
Between Success and
Failure"
President Coolidge has said
that every one knows that it
is not what is earned but what
is saved which measures the
difference between success and
failure"
Buying inferior goods be-
cause they are cheap is not
thrift. 1t is wasteful because
the service is correspondingly
short.
The way te decide where
savings are greatest" is first to
look into the ability of the store
to buy right; then the reputa-
ton of the store for selling
right.
The buying power of this
Store is tremendously increased
because of the cooperative
buying for all the Stores of this
Nation wide Organization. This
advantage is your advantage
=. each time you buy from US.
And paying cash you enjoy an
added saving.

HARD TO PLEASE

Naturally I told the graduate man
ayers that just as long as the home
team furnished the umpires disputes
would continue to arise.
l ventured the opinion that the same
set of umpires, assigned by one man
in charge of affairs and scheduled to
different games in different cities each
week, would be satisfactory, even
though the same umpires in the role of
home officials would be a failure.
The graduate managers were kind
enough to ask me to consider the
position of baseball commissioner of
the Big Three, with the provfso that
should act as the umpire-in- chief at
all of the Big Three games.
While the salary suggested was most
satisfactory, other business connec-
tions made it impossible for me to
consider the proposition.
In recent years the scheme I sug-
gested of moving the umpires around
has been used in many of the eastern
college games and the results have
been very satisfactory.

EASTERN FOOTBALL

without doubt, some new affilia-
tion of eastern teams will come as 9
result of the withdrawal of Princeton
from the so-called big Three"
The idea of an eastern conference
already has been suggested. 1t has
been looked on with favor in some
quarters, frowned on in others.
One of the main objections to such
scheme is that it would be an un-
wieldly organization, there being SO
many good teams in the east.
That hardly seems a logical one,
since there are plenty of mighty good
teams in the west outside of the Big
Ten, yet that organization, also known
as he Western conference, has been
mighty successful.
It should not prove to be a diff
cult task to select 10 teams that would
have a pretty good claim to being, the
class of. the east.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1926-11-27
1NGRAM.s sUGGEsr1oN

Conditions in football perhaps are
even worse. AS rule there is much
pickering before the officials are
agreed upon. Should an official be SO
unfortunate as to render an important
decision that determines the winner, he
is practically certain to be scratched
by the losers the following year.
note that Commander Ingram,
athletic director at the Navy, while
frowning on the proposed eastern con-
ference idea, said he was in favor of
prominent athletic parsonage, or a
commission of three, who would handle
the sports question of the eastern col
leges, such as the selecting of officials,
passing on the eligibility of the play
ers and rendering decision on any and
all disputes.
Princeton's withdrawal, while a blow
at Big Three traditions, may result in
much good for collegiate sports in the
east
