new TELEPHONE
Line COMPLETED
TO new MEXICO

Construction of direct telephone
line to Apache Ariz., and Rodeo and
Portal, both in New Mexico, has just
been completed by the Mountain
States Telephone and Telegraph COM
pany, according to announcement made
yesterday by H. c. Mayabb, local man
ager for the company.
At Portal the line will connect with
four forest lines, which consist of about
SO miles of line and make connections
with 66 forest and rural stations. Con-
nection with these stations is done by
switching arrangement by the forest
ranger at Portal, which is about IL
miles east of Rodeo.
The work of construction was
started about a month ago. The
project opens direct communication to
Rodeo and the other towns. In the
past long distance calls were routed
through San Simon or through Court
land and Light to Rodeo. This service
was not very satisfactory.
A copper metallic circuit was erected,
poles of the Southern Pacific railroad
being used. The line is expected to be
a great aid in the transaction of bust
ness between residents of those towns
and Douglas people.

c amp Little. Soldiers
Play Ball Here Today
Against Douglas Team

The Camp Little baseball nine, the
aggregation leading the Southern Ari-
IONA league, and the Douglas team will
meet at $3.50 o'clock on the local dia-
mond this afternoon The soldier team
from Nogales will be pitted against the
tail-enders of the league, the Douglas
team having lost every time it has
started this year.
In spite of it's poor showing to date,
however, Jack Weiss, manager of the
local nine, still believes it is capable
of giving any team in the league run
for its money. He is sending his boys
into the game this afternoon deter
mined to do their best against the sue
cessful soldier team. Camp Little has
so far won all its games.
The last two games played by the
local nine have been close. Weiss
claims the extremely cold weather at
NogaleS last Sunday handicapped his
men, because they were not accustomed
to it and the Nogales team was on its
home diamond Bill Evans will be the
umpire in today's game, Weiss said.

Jack was not sure last night just how
he would arrange his men for the first

Gardner has a good hook ball and a
good assortment of curves, according
to those who have seen him pitch. He
is also said to be in good condition.
The game this afternoon should prove
a good drawing card.

PHOENIX, May H. P-Following
nearly three and a half months or
intense activities about the capitol
in connection with the prolonged
session of the eighth state legisla-
ture, comment from various depart
ment heads indicate that statements
pufported as having been made by
Governor Hunt while on a visit to the
southern part of the state recently
will be carried out namely, that
there will not be special session
of the legislature unless the most
acute emergency arises.
The general consensus of opinion
is that if such an emergency is found
to exist, it will be in the state high
way department, over which two re-
cesses of the regular session were os-
tensibly voted.
According to statements issued
since sine die adjournment OF the
legislature on April 18 by State Engi-
neer w. c. Lefebvre, the highway
department will be unable to meet
two major projects because of lack
of funds.
one described as being urgent is
that of the Apache Trail via the
Mormon Flats dam. The present
highway will shortly be submerged,
state officials are agreed on that,
and construction of nighttime road
is well under way, but according TO
Lefebvre, the funds necessary to
carry the project to completion have
not yet been obtained.
1t has been expressed that moneys
with which to complete the new
nighttime on the Apache Trail vii!
be Forthcoming, if a danger of the
route being cut off by waters of the
Mormon Flats lake should prove i'm
ninent.
The second highway project On
which the question of sufficient funds
has entered is that of the conStruc-
ton of route to replace the portion
of the Globe -Rice-Safford highway
which will be flooded upon compile
ton of the Coolidge dam, near San
Carlos.
While the ultimate expense Of this
road will be borne by the government,
it will probably be necessary to ad-
vance considerable state money for
the purpose.

CONTINUES PROBE CRIPPLED; FUNDS
SOVIET RECORDSIREPORTED SHORT

LONDON, May ID. N)-The soviet
house was still in the hands of the
police tonight; they will be working
there continually over the weekend
The search of the premises is far
from complete, for the whole base
ment is honeycombed with secret
drawers and small but strong. inner
steel safes.
Some of the documents removed
and there were tons of these, were
tonight under investigation at an
important conference at the home
office, in which representatives OF
the war and foreign offices partici-
pated in addition to Sir William
Joyson- Hicks, home secretary, VINO
will make another statement in par
lament, and even then it is doubtful
if much will be forthcoming, because
the work of Jranslating and decod-
ing the seized documents viii occupy
many days
A new turn was given the affair
today by g circumstantial statement
that the raid was made with the
hope of discovering an important
state document which has been miss
ing for several months from the
governments office, land which the
most exhaustive searches have failed
to discover The police seem to have
obtained information, or supposed
that the missing document had found
It's way to the ARGOS premises, but
it was stated tonight that the docu-
mellt had not been found.
1t is evident that the raid becomes
a basis for problem in diplomatic
immunity and that it also raised the
question Of the advantages Of Co
ordination between the various gov
ernment departments.
The Russian contention is that
diplomatic immunity should have
protected the trade delegation from
such treatment, while. on behalf OF
the British government it is con-
tended that diplomatic immunity
covers only individuals and that in
the soviet house it was difficult to
define where the ARGOS premises
ended and the trade delegations
habitat began.
The reply of Sir Austen Chamber
lin, foreign secretary, to the Russian
charges protest at the raid is being
drafted, and it is expected to be
chiefly directed at an exposition of
the exact diplomatic status of M.
Khinchuk, head of the soviet trade
delegation, according to the gov
ernments Interpretation of the trade
agreement concluded by the late Ia
Dor government.
The note will also contend that
ARGOS as trading company has no
more privileges than any other trad.
ing firm.
