Local Taxes Are Being Paid
Under Protest; S. P. Refunded

On the grounds that the Santa
Cruz County Board of Supervisors
and the Nogales City Council have
levied county and city taxes in ex-
cess of the amount prescribed and
limited by Chapter 52 of the Ses-
sion Laws Of Arizona for 1919,
many taxpayers in paying their
first installment Of 1927 taxes this
week at the office of Mrs.Anna B..
Ackley, County Treasurer, signed
protests in hopes of getting a re-
fund.
The Southern Pacific Railroad
Company was one of the first to
protest and as a result of their ac-
ton the Board Of Supervisors at
their regular monthly meeting
Monday ordered a refund to the
railroad company of $2,046 city
taxes, and $4S2 county taxes.
It is claimed that the protests
being filed as people pay their
taxes is due to- the county rate be-
ing CASA per 800, and the city
ate SO cents per 800, in excess

STREETS OF NOCALES

to take Nogales out of the dust an
dirt and place this rapidly growing
border metropolis where it belongs
in the class of up to date paved
cities.
Adoption of the bonds means
that actual work Of paving the
streets will get under way about
the middle of February. Plans call
for the paving Of all the principal
streets in the business and re-
sidential sections.
Now that the people have voted
for the bonds, the next step in the
paving program will be the Of
ficial canvass of Tuesdays election
results by the City Council on
November 21, it was stated yester-
day by City Attorney James v.
Robins. The council will then de.
clare the result Of the election by
certificate to be recorded in the
office of the County Recorder.
Then, in the later part of the
month, the city council will order
the bonds sold and they will be
advertised for four weeks.
There will be no trouble dispos-
ing of these gilt-edged Nogales
bonds. "The city has received
hundreds of communications from
bond buyers already asking TO be
advised os the result Of the eiec-
tion, it was stated Wednesdaylby
City Attorney Robins, who added
that actual work of paving the
streets should get under way about
the middle of February and that
It will take at least year to COM
I lete the paving work.
Credit for the success Of the
bond election at Tuesdays election
is due largely to the public-spirited
boosters who got out and worked
like Trojans on election day for
the bonds. Among those working
hard to get to the polls the per-
sons favoring paving were W. c.
Vinegar, Bracey Curtis, A. d.
Gillespie, P. D. Clagett, Frank j.
Duffy, C. G. Crenshaw, E. r.
Thurman, DIR. A. L. Gustetter, w.
w. Lockhart, E. J. Reeves, Harry
J. Karns, e. X. Cumming, and
many others.
Great credit for the paving pro-
gram having gotten to the present
fine stage is due to City Attorney
Robins, Mayor Karns, and all mem

The British Labor party has announced in
unmistakable tones that it is definitely through
with palavers with the Soviet Russian labor
organization.
A short while ago, labor party leaders de-
clared their partys plan to withdraw from
their cooperative pact with Russian laborites.
But apparently some of the members of the
party could not hear well. Consequently they
moved resolution that steps be taken to bring
about q reunion of the international working
class political movement through the medium
Of conference.
There was heated debate on the motion,
and the men who were playing the roles Of paci-
fiers sat down confident that the reunion would
be contaminated. Then it came to a vote, and
by as decisive margin as had been given any
important measure, it was defeated.
It speaks well for the British laborites that
they refuse to be duped. They have learned
enough about the ways of the Russians to know
that benefit will never accrue to them through
affiliation with group whose aims are so diff
ferent. And they are determined that their
party shall continue along the lines set by its
founders to work for better conditions for the
English laborer.

Preserving Wooded Areas

One point made by H. D. Freeman, planning
expert in his talk before civic bodies Wednes-
day was that preservation of woodland areas
in the park system of the city was one Of the
important things to be considered in making
any plan for future Development
The first step has already been taken by the
park board in acquiring a strip of land along
the river near the Memorial Bridge. This is
to be developed and roads and paths are to
be laid out SO that it will be a valuable and
disable part of the park system.
But there are other wooded areas close to
Bismarck which should also be considered in
any comprehensive plan. Limited funds make
it impossible for the park board to acquire
them Immediately, but it is hoped that, in time,
they will become public property.
In this section of the country, where an eff
fort is made to plant and nourish trees and
other vegetation SO carefully, we should also
take into consideration the things nature has
already given u.s. In preservation of the
woods near the bridge the park board has done
a good thing. It is to be hoped that citizens
will cooperate with it to the fullest extent in
obtaining other property which will assure this
city park system second to none in the state.

Will Speed Defeat Itself?
Cincinnati Times-Star)

It is ninety-two miles from New York to
Philadelphia, and trains easily make the dis
lance in two hours. Leandre Vaillat, CORE
spondent of the Paris Temps driving car,
found that it took him five hours. Writing
for his paper, he describes the scene: I've
hicles in an uninterrupted procession each
way; villages with stop" and "go" lights,
holding up or releasing traffic; foot passengers,
prescribed as urdesirables," crossing by
bridges and subways; the curious oriental res
ignation of drivers at the ferry where thou
sand machines waited their turn, and "sat
there for an hour without an oath, without any
exhibition Of i'll humor, without one word
raised higher than any other"
Here is exaggerated Illustration of a real
American problem as viewed by transatlantic
eyes, exaggerated because the route is one Of
very heavy travel, and because ferry is no.
toriously too much for an automobile. What
the Frenchman concludes is that speed defeats
itself when everybody avails Of it. His pre-
diction that "the multiplication Of the automo-
bile will result in its humiliation" is as exag-
gerated as his illustration; but the movement
in large cities to exclude it from downtown Sec
tions is in effect localized project in that d.
rection.
