Plans have been under way fol
some time in connection with the big
task of entertaining the several hun
dred visitors expected. 1t is believed
there may be as many as $50 dele
gates, many from New Mexico. AS
the time comes at the vacation period
and as a special effort is being made
by the local committee and extensive
advertising is being done to induce
the families of the various delegates
to attend also, it is thought the total
attendance may reach to around 600.
Some of these people will remain here
several weeks.
1t is expected, though it will
not be decided for a few days,
that the state Epworth League
convention will be held here also,
to Immediately follow TINT of the
Christian Endeavor. The attend
ance at the latter, it is believed,
will be at least half as large as
that at the Christian Endeayor.
Headquarters for the C. e. conven-
tion will be at the Federated church.
Most of the meetings will be held
there, though some of them, accord
ing to present plans, will be held at
scenic points in the vicinity, the in
tention being to afford the visitors
every opportunity to visit the many
natural wonders in this part of the
country, adapting the program to a
large extent to fit in.
Last year the convention was held
at Tucson.
The state committee will meet in
Casa Grande on February 18 to
formulate definite convention pro-
gram. In this work this paramount
idea viii be kept foremost: To
arouse the young people of Arizona to
the supreme nede of making the most
Of their lives, physically, socially, in
tellectually and spiritually.
National speakers of note will adj
dress the convention, specialists in
young peoples problems.

Total Estimated
Expenditures

The representatives of the railroad
in making their request for the sale
of $4,000 of bonds instead of $175,-
900 asserted that if the first-named
amount was decided upon, the rail-
way company would at once pay its
second installment Of 1926 taxes as
a tax bill could be sent the railroad
company" pay the first installment
of 1927 taxes. This early payment Of
railway taxes, they argued would
help lot. Besides this, they said
much of the Indebtedness is. to the
state and payment of most Of this
could be deferred for time, as it
could not be collected until the coun-
ty is ready to pay it and in the mean
time no interest is charged. Follow

Introducing An All
Around NeIUspGperite

Wayne Shields, newspaper man
whose experience is just about all it
could be considering the not very
heavy mantle of years he carries
around arrived by pre-arrangement
on Sunday from Wisconsin by way
of Los Angeles to become assistant
advertising and news man on The
Sun.
Mr.. Shields began newspaper work
when he was IL years old. After six
years Of that, during which he grad
uated from high school, he entered
Marquette university and until he
graduated was linotype machinist-op-
orator and pressman in the big print
ing plant connected with the univer-
sity. Then he became manager of the
Delavan, Wis, Republican, remaining
there until last month, when he re-
signed to come west.
We believe the patrons of The Sun
will easily learn to like this young
man who likes Flagstaff and the
west and the longer he stays here
will grow in that affection. He is
staying at Hotel Monte Vista, his
wife and child and sister-in-law-
the latter a teacher-not coming
here until June.

made by Frank Thompson, tax
agent for the Santa Fe railway COM
pany and Mr.. Harries, auditor, that
the sale of bonds be limited to $75,-
O00 But the board preferred selling
the entire amount and clear away all

Drunken Car Driver
Given Jail Sentence

Driving while drunk has resulted
in Frank Guerrero of this city being
confined to the city jail for 10 days
and paying a fine Of 500.
Guerrero was picked up by Night
Marshal Claude Tackitt Sunday night
after an exciting chase of several
miles during which the former hit a
bridge, knocked over a telephone pole
and demoralized traffic generally.
Tacbitt found it necessary to COM
mandeer a passing car to give chase
to the drink-crazed man. The race
ended on South San Francisco street
when the runaway was forced into the
ditch by the pursuing car.

oped when the next county budget
is made that the county absolutely
must have more funds, special tax
levy of S25, 900 or so could be made.
They contended that it would be bet
ter business on the part of the su-
pervisors to remain in debt as long
as no interest need be paid on the
indebtedness, than to wipe out the
debt all at once with bond money on
which interest must be paid.
The supervisors, however, felt that
the better way was to clear up the
debt and thus be free from the oft
repeated demands of creditors, the
largest.of which is the state, to which
the county owes in taxes collected
S78985.97 and to which will be due a
large part of future collections in
taxes.

ASK MODIFICATION
Railroads Object to Order
Reducing Rates:
BIZ United Press

BIZ Unfted Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-North-
ern trans continental railroads to-
day requested the interstate COM
merce commission to modify its
order of last July reducing freight
rates IS cents a hundred pounds on
deciduous fruits other than apples,
moving from California eastward via
middle and southern tran-conti-
mental routes.
The Great Northern; Northern
Pacific; Chicago, Milwaukee g. st.
Paul; the Spokane, Portland g. Sc
attic, and the Oregon, Washington
Railroad and Navigation Company
pointed out to the commission that
the order could be construed to re-
quire reduction on deciduous
fruit movements via the Northern
Pacific gaeways whereas the record
did not show that north movement
should be included in the reduc-
ton.
IF the order is so construed,
compliance Herewith by the north
ern lines will result in lower rates
on deciduous fruits from northern
California than on the same COM
modities to the same destinations
from the intermediate fruit terri
tory served by the northern lines in
the States of Washington and Ore
gon and will result in a violation
of the long and short haul clause
unless they simultaneously reduce
their rates on deciduous fruits from
Washington and Oregon to the
level of those prescribed by the
commission from California" the

CROP REPORTS
All Grains Off at Beginning
of Chicago Session
Today.
BIZ United Press

By United Press
CHICAGO, Oct. Spending re-
ceipts of private crop reports late
today, traders were inclined to be
bearish. Wheat opened u to Il cent
lower; corn, * to IL cents down,
and oats, unchanged to Is cent
lower.
Private crop reports are expected
to show a decrease of about 30,000,-
900 bushels from the recent Govern
ment figures on the spring wheat
crop. Liverpool cables were no in
fluence here. The heavy movement
of grain continued and was the
chief factor in depressing prices.
Good weather was reported in the
corn belt although some damage
occurred due to heavy winds and
rain. The private report is expected
to be bearish.
The private report on the oats
crop was expected to be 100000
bushels lower than the recent Gov
