To the Officers and Members of Dis
triet u, United Mine Workers Of
America.
Brothers The United Mine Work
ers of America has pledged its moral
and financial support to the British
Mine Workers in their fight against
e reduction in wages and longer
workday.
Our international officers have sent
out an appeal inviting all branches
of the organization, that are in a posi-
ton to do so. to make donations as
soon as possible. The officers of Dis
trict IL feel that our district should
respond to this appeal for assistance
and that we can afford to make a
twenty-five thousand dollar (S25.O0O)
donation.
However. the District 70 constitu-
ton limits donations by the district
executive board to five hundred dol
lars (s5O0OO) for any purpose other
than for the use of our own organize
ton in District IL.
II therefore follows that the propo-
sition is being referred to our local
unions for vote thereon. All local
unions are requested to arrange for
vote on the matter and in way that
will be most convenient to. the locals
and the membership This may be
done at regular or special meetings
The returns should be sent to dis
trict headquarters no later than July
l on the enclosed blank and in a spe-
cial envelope provided for that pur-
pose. Local unions failing to vote
will be listed as not opposing the
twenty-five thousand dollar donation.
Yours very truly,

Dawes object.

The conservative democrats, such
as Underwood of Alabama, Bruce OF
Maryland, and Robinson of Arkansas,
agreed with the Mellon-Coolidge ma
chine sufficiently to join hands with
them in sending the bill down to de-
eisive defeat.
In the background, too, supporters
Of President Coolidge scented the
welding of potential political power
in behalf of Vice-President Dawes in
1928. Gen. Dawes was one of the bills
adherents, despite President Coo
lidge's and Secretary MELONS denun-
citation of it. He wants to be presi-

WASHINGTON, June 25.--PaIpably

tered corn belt in November because
of the failure to adopt any measures
for agricultural relief this session.

Now that the McNary- Haugen pro

that the plan to adjourn by June 30

fights. Only few measures Of major
Importance, such as the radio control
bill and the rivers and harbers bill,
remain on the urgent schedule.
Party Lines Wiped Out.
Considerable bitterness was left to-
day in the wake of the corn belts de-
feat on the McNary-H augen bill. 1t
was sent down to decisive defeat by
combination Of the conservatives
of both parties in a fight that saw
party lines more completely shatter-
ed than they have been on any issue
in recent years. The republican split
could not have been more complete,
% voting for it and "a against it. The
democrats were little better off, di-
viding Is and 81.
The feature of the bill that was
opposed by eastern reactionaries, such
as Butler of Massachusetts, Reed Of
Pennsylvania, and their associates,
was that section which created fed
eral farm board to administer the
act, to be appointed from men select
ed. by the farmers themselves" thru
their organizations. AS the bill stood,
President Coolidge could not select
the boards members from whom he
pleased. The farmers own organiza-
tions were the dictators, and with
$3.50, 900 900 to handle and real powers
for price regulations, the conserya-
lives sforesaw the possibilities slof a
real and powerful farm bloc arising.

FOREST BILL ASSAILED
BY COLONEL GREELEY

Pointing out that the Stanfield
grazing bill, introduced recently into
the senate, and scheduled for hearing
on Monday, deleteriously affects the
business and interests of timber and
water users, conservation programs
and recreations through giving virtual
control Of the national forests and
unreserved public lands to a state
board representing the grazing in
terests only, Col. w. B. Greely, chief
Of forest service, United States de-
partment Of agriculture, issued in
Washington his comments to the bill,
which We're addressed to Secretary of
Agriculture Jardine.
The effect of the Stanfield bill on
the national forests is summarized by
Colonel Greedy as destroying the
present forest service protection by
placing grazing dominant over ether
resources by special privileges, and
under direction Of the state board !;
and on the unreserved public lands
first, by placing the duties of range
administration on the registers of To-
time or technical training to handle
tleSe IeW uuliCS, anu SecOiQt lHe d.
location of grazing privileges by the
new state board represented only by
grazing interests.
Colonel Greely states that inasmuch
as the bill is clearly designed to fix
almost in perpetuity the use of pub
lie lands by the livestock men now
occupying them, and as opportunity
for monopoly is created through the
same provision by the complexity of
rules governing the safe transfer and
bequest of grazing rights in the ma
tional forests, the proposed legisla-
ton, il enacted into a law, would
seriously weaken and interfere with
the proper use of the national forests
for timber production, watershed pro-
lection, water, power and irrigation
development and recreation. He gave
as his reason for issuing his COM
ments on the bill the desire to ac-
quaint all organizations interested
with the serious consequences that its
passage would effect.

STATE BANK
MAY STAND BIG LOSS

The Prescott State bank, which fail
ed to open its doors on November 25
of last year, faces a loss of 1888, 49,
"a, this figure being the most opti-
mistic that possibly could be given
according to Receiver Homer r. Wood
who took the stand in the superior
court at Prescott Saturday when his
petition to collect their liability of
bank stock against the stockholders
IN the institution was heard.
This figure, according to A. T..
Han1mons,- state superintendent of
banks, is far too optimistic, however,
and the loss which the depositors and
stockholders of the closed bank will
face when the final reckoning is held
will be closer to a million dollars, he
has reported to Mr.. Wood Mr.. Ham
mons estimate of the bank affairs is
that it would take that amount to
put the bank on a going basis.
Following the hearing of the petit
ton, held before Judge Richard Lam
son of division two of the superior
court, an order was entered granting
the petition. AS the result, the re-
ceiver will make demand upon the
stockholders in the bank for the pay
ment of their liability Of the S10o
par value of each share, which would
net the bank 100000. Should the
stockholders fail to meet the demand
of the receiver, suits will be instituted
for the collection of the liability, ae-
cording to Judge John A. Ellis, attor-
ney for the receiver in connection
with the affairs of the Prescott State
bank
Some few of the stockholders al
ready have met their liability Judge
Ellis. said Saturday, and little diff
ficulty in collecting from the rest of
them is anticipated Only one of the
stockholders in the Bank of Jerome,
which was closed on the same day,
has paid
A dividend on their deposits in the
closed bank will be paid the deposi
tors as soon after the first of May,
when all the claims will have been
filed, as is possible, the attorney said.

SAYS VICKSBURG~ PLAN OF
COLONIZATION is FRAUD

Branding a colonization of colored
Iex-service men on government land
near Vicksburg, in Yuma county, a
"palpablc fraud Governor Hunt
called to the attention of federal and
state authorities the need for definite
action to protect the coonists.
Governor Hunt enclosed in his let
ter report made to him by state
representative charging that the land
is being colonized as land to be III
rigated from the Boulder Canyon
dam. 1t is alleged that the settlers
are told that the appropriation for
the dam already has been made and
that irrigation is merely matter of
engineers locating canals and bitches.
Stating that he believes the situa-
ton calls for action, Governor Hunt
says that the settlers have mo op-
portunity whatsoever of getting water
from Boulder Canyon dam on these
lands, even though the dam were con-
structed."
The letter was sent by the COVER
nor to Federal Judge Jacobs, Assist
ant United States Attorney George
Wilson, Senator Ashurst, Senator
Cameron, Congressman Hayden,
County Attorney Kelly of Yuma coun-
ty, and state and Yuma county Le-
gion officials.

MORE INDIAN AND MEXICAN
BABIES THAN WHITE ONES

More Mexican and Indian babies
were born in Arizona during the last
six months of 1925 than white chill
dren.
This surprising fact was made pub
lie by the state board of health in its
semi-annual vital statistics report.
The total number of white children
born between July l and December
81 was 2030. The total number Of
Mexican and Indians was 2066. OF
this number 1868 births were Mexi-
can and 29S Indian.
Boys. exceeded the girls in number
there being 2240 boys and 2078 girls
born during the six month period.
There were IS twins and ga illegiti-
mate births.
Life and death ran an uneven race
in Arizona during the last half of
1925 with life winning by a wide mar
gin. The total number Of births for
the six months was 4318. In the same
period there were but 1902 deaths.

CEOLOGIST AT UNIV.
SCOUTS ARTIFACT FIND

Disbelief in the authenticity of the
so-called Tucson artifacts, believed by
some scientists to be relics of a pre-
Columbian civilization, was expressed
by DR.. +. l.. Ransome, professor of
geology at the University Of Arizona
and widely known geologist, at a
joint meeting of the Arizona Histori-
cal and Archaeological society and the
faculty of the University of Arizona,
last week, when Dean Byron Cum
mings, head of the college of arch
aelogy, asked the geologists during a
round-table discussion by scientists,
to explain the nature of caliche, the
rock-like formation under which the
relics were found by excavation.
DR.. Ransome said
Frankly, / am a skeptic as to the
authority of these artifacts. The
caliche in which they were deposited
is very different from the kind we
have in town. 1t appears to be quite
possible that it is an old dump of
detrital material deposited by human
hands.
''As for the artifacts themselves,
they strike me as being puerile. They
a good stout oak club would have been
better off than one who welded one
of those leaden swords.
"The inscriptions seem to be the
work of one man-and that man APP
parently demented. They were prob
ably made within the last 100 years" ;"
DR.. A. E. Douglas, director of the
Stewart observatory there, expressed
the belief that the caliche in question
is the crux of the whole matter and
suggested that study of the origin
and formation Of it would tend to set
tie the controversy.
Dean Cummins reiterated his be-
lief in the genuineness of the artifacts
but offered no solution, saying "it is
a mystery that challenges the best eff
forts of science"

1888 BIRTHS, 57l3 DEATHS
I'm THE STATE in YEAR

The total number of births in the
state during 1926 exceeded the total
number of deaths by 3270, according
to report of the vital statistics of
the state issued by the state board Of
health.
The report, divided into the first
six months and the last six months
Of the year, compiled by Mrs. Ruby
l.. Jacquemin, statistician for the
board shows that a total of 1888
babies were born in the state during
the year 1925 as compared to death
rate of 5713 for the same period.
According to the report, 1866 babies
were born during the first six months
of the year and 431S babies during
the second half or the last six
months of 1925. The death rate for
the same periods were 3111 deaths
during the first half and 2602 deaths
during the second half.
An unfortunate feature of the death
report is the fact that of the total
number of deaths 1894, or nearly one
fourth Of the total number were
bakies under the age of one year. Of
the total number of deaths, both in
fants and others, 1923 were caused by
contagious diseases. The total num-
ber of contagious diseases reported
during the year were 1915, the report
shows, Of which nearly one-half prov
ed fatal.
The birth records for the year show
that 1904 of the babies were boys,
while 4379 were girls. There were 96
pairs of twins born in the state dur
ing the Year, but not single set OF
triplets. The last est of triplets in
the state were born in 1924, the
records show.
There were 76 deaths in the state
during the year as the result Of au-
tomobile accidents, according to the
report, of which "a we're during the
first half of the year and AZ during
the second half. There was one
death caused by an airplane, accord
ing to the report.
The report shows that II died from
alcoholism or drugs Heart disease
during the year claimed 461 people,
while At took their own lives by va
Tious means.
There were Sd murders reported
during the year, of which 20 were
committed during the last half of the
year and Is during the first six
months. In 35 of the murders, fire
arms were used to accomplish the
deed, while in five cases a cutting or
piercing instrument was used. The
remaining four murders were accom-
plished by various means not listed.

KANSAS CITY WEEKLY
MARKET REPORT
) HA@@&%*%%%%%**% . = = 3 = = %**

Kansas City, Feb. 15.-Cattle prices
showed practically no change COM
pared with last weeks close though
medium to good steers are 25 cents
lower, and plain and best steers are
steady with week ago. Trade today
was fairly active, but the liberal re-
ceipts in Chicago continue to domin-
ate the situation. Hogs were steady
to 10 cents higher than Saturday,
mostly strong. The price spread has
broadened materially. Lambs con-
tinue to decline and are in the lowest
position of the season.
Beef Cattle
Though cattle receipts we're fairly
liberal prices held fully steady with
last weeks close and had there been
any showing of strength in the east
the market here would have ruled
higher. Demand was ample to bring
a good clearance in practically all
classes. Most of the steers sold at
$3.50 to 1915, a few at $40 and $10.-
25 and plain kinds as low as S7.5O.
No steers showed outstanding finish
and only a few graded UP to choice.
Cows and heifers were in active de-
mand at unchanged prices. Receipts
were moderate. Mixed yearlings were
scarce. Veal calves. were steady, best
light weights selling up to $12.
StOckers and Feeders
Strong demand continued for stock
ers and feeders, and prices were prac-
tically the same as they. have been
for some time past. Much larger sup
plies could be handled without dis
turbing present prices. 1t does not
seem probable that there viii be any
further advance, but at the same time
no decline is ANTICIPATED.
Sheep and Lambs
Another so cents was taken off OF
lamb prices today and the market
