Capt. Charles A. Montgomery,
SO years of age, Indian fighter
and blazer of western trails, we'll
known in Nogales, passed away
November 26, at the Soldiers
Home in Sawtelle, according to
a,ivices here. His death marked
the close of one of the most
colorful careers in the history Of
American pioneering.
Among the achievements OF

the then western wilderness, his
thirty eight years Of service for
the government on the frontier,
and his exploits and missions for
the United States Secret Service.
He was for years government
scout and guide in New Mexico
and Arizona and participated in
the capture of Geronimo.
Kit Carson was numbered
among the intimate friends of
Capt. Montgomery, who was
known throughout the entire
West for his powess as an Indian
fighter. He contributed the scalp
of more than one savage to the
collections of the Smiths oman
Institution.
The departed pioneer took
great pride in the fact that the
late Queen Victoria was one of
his acquaintances. He at one
time talked to the Queen for
nearly an hour, explaining the
conditions of the Far West. He

THE S. T. co. CLOSES BRANCH

The Southern Trust company,
head office here, has announced
that the affairs of its branch at
Navojoa, Sonora, Mexico. are to
be liquidated in accordance
with resolution passed by it's
board of directors on the lst of
November last.
It has been made know that
this decision is due to the fact
that the amount of deposits
taken in at the branch does not
justify the investment of the
capital required by Mexican
banking law and expense of
operating that Office. T
Under the old Mexican bank
ing law under which this branch
was chartered the capital requir
ed was so, 900 pesos. Mexico has
jnst promulgated new banking
law, effective the 29th of last No.
vember, requiring minimum
capital for each branch of fore
ign banks in the states of Mex.
leo of $50, 900 pesos orc nacional.
The branches of foreign banks
now operating ia Mexico have to
comply with the new capital re.
quirement before the 31st of De.

studied in the United States and
his knowledge of the people of

him many friends on this border.
Though a person owning con.
siderable interests in the state
of Sonora. where he was born,
Mr.. Mascarenas, Jr.. has re-
peatedly said that he is with the
"under-dog." However. be has
always been more than glad to
render assistance whenever re-
Quested of him.
The union labor element across
the river some time ago sent to
the state congress a petition to
make Senor Mascareuas a citizen
of the state of chihuahua. Other
organizations, social and com
mercial as we'll, and municipal
authorities in the state also for
warded petitions to that effect.
This meant that over two thirds
of the population in the terri
tory of the state of Chihuahua
participated in behalf of the in
itiative.

'RAPS CRT BABY
INDUSTRIES
b international News service

BY international News Service 8
BOSTON. Dec. Industries that
resort to ''cry.baby'' appeals to the
public to use their products, are
becoming numerous. much to the
detriment OF American business, in
the opinion Of o. n. Cheney, vice
president OF the American Ex-
change.Irving Trust Company; Of
New York, who addressed the mem.
bers OF the Boston Chamber Of
Commerce today.
Speaking on the subject, "The
New Competition in 1927" Cheney
said: 1.-THE slogan Buy q Bale Of
Cotton and the plea that women
wear cotton stockings to help the
mill towns liz simply begging for 81
hand-out. No industry can establish
itself firmly on street corners. ! Pan.
handling Is not sound method Of
developing an industry"

tons Of New England as the most
thrifty.
The removal Of New England I'm
dugtries to Southern States will not
develop into q permanent migration,
In the opinion OF Cheney. On this
phase Of local industry he said:
The South advertises It's cheap
power, cheap labor and proximity
to the cotton field. The North
complains Of expensive coal, high
wages, high freight rates and
buries its head IN its hands. The
truth Il that no State and no
country can claim cheap labor costs
forever.
.'The manufacturer who thinks
he can build permanent industry
on cheap labor Is Hind. There may
be labor cost differentials and adj
vankageg may be taken Of them In
competition, but the advantage can
be only temporary.
wages In the South must In.
evitabIy rise and the working week
grow shorter. The South calls itself
| the New Southland right1y--but It
cannot become the New South Of
great industry and enlightened labor
and new prosperity and at the same
time remain the Old South. The
South cannot face both ways at
once.
