Scout Executive
Here Going To
Lakeside Camp

Robert Waldraven, Scout execu-
tive for Grand Canyon Council Boy
Scouts, was in Winslow Wednesday
enroute from Flagstaff to Lake
side, where he will make final pre-
parations for the Lakeside Scout
Camp which will start next Sun
day. Mr.. Waldrayen announced he
expects as large an attendance at

Johns and McNary districts as at
tended Camp Scouting at Mormon
Lake, which terminated last Sun
day. Exactly so Scouts from Wins
low, Flagstaff and Williams at
tended Camp Scouting, and never
was there such successful camp
conducted in Northern Arizona, the

was not single accident or Incl
dent to mar the weeks outing, Mr.
Waldraven said, and not only he
but the boys and parents are high
ly pleased over this years camp ac
tivities and the plans are to take

Verde Extension
Reaches Agreement
With Yavapai Co.

PRESCOTT = The United Verde
Extensions tax troubles apparently
are over. A compromise agree
ment reached between Arizona's
second largest copper producer and
the board of supervisors of Yava-
pal county Monday will result in
the payment of about S165, 900 in
disputed taxes and dismissal of
long pending litigation in United
States district court.
The agreement followed day of
conferences, the first official meet
ing between the county and copper
company representatives although
unofficial parlevs had been going
on Payment of about $157,000 in
taxes bv the company will square
the books of G. A. Weidler, tax col
lector and preclude his filing suit
for collection.
The United Verde Extension be-
lieved that its assessment was too
high and that discriminatory meth
DDS had been used bv the state tax
commission in arriving at it's valu-
alton On these points. a lawsuit
was fought through the federal
court. The litigation involved an in
junction AGAINST the state tax COM
mission and Yavapai county tax Of
ficers.
Federal Judges sitting en- banc
passed on the equity proceedings
and subsequently, many points were
covered in appearances in federal
court. The result. in the opinion
of o. M. Morgan, special counsel for
the county, has been to eliminate
the cause of action based on the
alleged exhorbitant assessment, but
leaves the matter of charged dis
elimination still unsettled.
This involves question of fact in
connection with the factors used by
the state tax commission in eva1u-
ating not only the United Verde Ex
tension but also other Arizona
mines. It is understood that the
compromise was effected on the
subject of penalties attached to
deferred payments; but not to the
interest thereon.

ARSON WITNESS
 TELLS OF PLOT
Says Bethel Shop Owner Wanted
 to Get Rid Of WatChInan

Bridgeport, Conn, March 23 R --"One thing we've got to do, is 10 do away with the watchman," Charles Frost, on trial before Judge John w. Banks in superior court conhded 10 Sam Wcisnger, known as Sam Cohen, when pre-. llminary plans for the burning O. J'rosts Bethel factory last April were under discussion, it was sworn on the witness stand today by Cohen,
 Cohen alleged he was sent to Bethel the day of the fire by Ahra- ham "Whitey" Friedman, who has declared Inc was hired for prom ised S5,000 fee to carry through tho arson plot and that he was met by Frost.
 Cohen asserted that Frost stopped an elevator between floors to assure privacy and mentioned to him the necessity Of getting rid of the watch. man.
 Rather than be involved in an escapade, such as suggested by the remark of Frost, Cohen said he gave notice he would do nothing of the sort. He said Frost replied some other way must be thought of.
 An unusual technical question arose during tho morning session when Attorney Homer $. Cummings of counsel for Frost asked that he be permitted 10 cross-examine Cohen on the question of his offer- ing testimony which might incrim- mate him.
 The states attorney made sharp objection and Judge Banks com mented that 1t was q novel question and asked Mir, Cummings if he could cite any cases in precedent.
 NIT. Cummings said he could not. adding that he had never before raised such a question and declared that 1t had never before been broached in a criminal court in this country.
 Judge Banks briefly questioned Cohen 10 determine if he wholly un- dorstood that if his testimony was discriminating it would be used against him later. Cohen repeated he was aware of that and was will ing 10 testify.
 Judge Banks declined 10 permit further cross-eXamination and Mir. cummings took q formal exception 10 the courts ruling that the su. premo court, if occasion arises. may Dc asked to give an opinion on the unusual &alation.

Washington. March 2S (Pl-Prcsi- dent Coolidge doubts that it will be necessary for the United States to send representative to the Geneva meeting of the 4S world court states to explain the reservations attached by the senate 10 American adher- CnCo to the court.
 The president takes the position that the senate reservations speak for themselves and that there would be no reason 10 attempt a further explanation.
 Despite objections raised at the recent meeting of the council oo the league of nations. it was said al th" White Hous" today that tho prcsi- dont is satisfied with tho method followed by the United States in SoNding formal notifications Of its adherence to each national indi- Nidua'ly. He believes this method meets all international requirements,
 Cuba already has accepted tho American reservations and the president expected the other sigma tory nations 10 indicate thcir atti- udc without much delay.
 No definite stand on the question of the Geneva conference will be taken. however, until tho Tinted states has received its invitation.
