 association in Bristol today. At the invitation of Dewitt Page, president ofthe New Departure Go. and a di- rector of the Manufacturers' Asso- citation of Connecticut, both the business meeting and the banquet tonight are at the Endee Inn which IS operated by the New Departure for its employees.
 Hubbard Comments Committees
 The gathering opened at 12:s0 with a buffet luncheon, served in the Endee club rooms. At 1:15 a tour of inspection was made Of a few departments and special buses brought from the Merden and Hart ford divisions were used to trans
 port the party.
 The business meeting was called to order at 2:45 by President E.. Kent Hubbard who submitted frs, a brief report of the activities Of the association for the past year. The treasurer's report was read by Robert C. Buell. of Hartford. An- nual reports of the committees were not given from the floor but were sent out to all members of the as- soclation in printed form. Com.
 mentlng on the association's accom- pilshments for the year, President Hubbard said: Tn many organiza- tons the committees are more or less inactive, concession, l might say, 10 the custom of many years standing which decreed that any or ganization of repute must have standing committees on every known subject, whether or not the mem hers of these committees were ever called upon to function. The sys- tenn IS as obsolete as it is deplorablo and l am proud to say that it iy not in use by our association. What ever merit of success We may have achieved in the past year is due very largely to the active, energetic and constructive work of our chair men and committee members. We have working committees and to these gentlemen I desire to extend the heartfelt thanks Of the board of directors and the membership. The committee chairmen were call ed upon by name by Mir. Hubbard and arose to receive the acknowl. edgment of the members. c.

8 DEAD; 34 HURT
 AS TRAINS CRASH
Engines Meet at Curve and Roll
 Down EmbankmeDt

Belleville. Ont, Nov. aS LP - Three dead. four seriously injured and 30 slightly hurt today stood as the toll of a head-on collision al Dockrill, 56 miles west of here. be- tween Canadian Pacific passenger train and a freight, as an inquest was called at Enterprise to deter mine the cause of the wreck.
 The dead are w. Burnett, engi- neer of the passenger train, and two unidentified passengers, listed as foreigners. The majority of the injured were immigrants.
 The four seriously injured who are in a hospital at Smiths Falls are:
 R. Post, fireman of the passenger train.
 J. l.. Bradford of Smiths Falls, engineer of the freight train.
 J. kahns, a passenger.
 An unidentified man.
 The crash was attributed to the failure of the freight to take the Sldlng as It neared Dockrlll station late yesterday. II is believed the weight of the train caused the en- gineer to overrun the switch. Un- coupling all but three cars he had gone on past the station, when the two trains met at a curve where the vision of the engineers was oh- scured.
 The two engines left the track, rolling down an embankment, and the following mail, baggage and passenger cars of the passenger train were badly smashed Fire broke out in the forward cars shortly after the crash but it is be- lieved all of the 122 passengers, not accounted for in the list of dead and injured, escaped.

Two Bills Only
Passed by SOlOns

Except for two small entries, his
tory at noon Saturday turned down
blank page, containing all the rec
ord of accomplishment written by
the eighth Arizona legislatures first
special session. Both houses ad-
journed at that hour. Monday morn
ing the regular session began, to last
so days, with perhaps a second extra
session to follow.
When the senate adjourned at d
o'clock Friday afternoon, chairmen of
the controlling committees let it be-
come known that all important meas
ures in their hands either would be
adversely reported Saturday or die of
inanition. This sweeping decision in
cluded all administration measures,
whether relating to the Colorado riv-
er or the state highway department,
and the substitute river bill introduced
of his own initiative by Senator Jones
of Maricopa.
Both house and senate leaders had
predicted without qualification that
the only two bills to pass the session
would be the "feed BILL" carrying
salaries and expenses, and the meas
ure calling for a legislative investiga-
tion of the state highway department,
which confessed in its finance bill to
a deficit of $625,000 on Dec. 81, 1925.
The governor Friday notified both
houses that he had signed the joint
resolution, defining the scope of the
investigation in the broadest terms.

cattle were shipped to points outside
the state, compared with 100000 for
the first ten months of 1925. The for
mer figure does not include 100000

somewhat higher than the preceding
year, and the fat cattle market also
held good level, top steers now

New Manager of
the Mt. States Co.

Prepared to build for the present
and the future under $1,000,000 pro-
gram for 1927 and a $3,750,000 pro-
gram for the next five years, the
Phoenix headquarters of the Noun
tain States Telephone and Telegraph
company Friday started moving from
the Telephone building at West Adams
street and Third avenue to the Ari-
zona Fire building, West Adams and
Second avenue, so as to clear the way
for the $4,000 building that will be
erected on the company's property us
the first step in the expansion
schedule.
Along with the announcement of
moving plans, H. d. McVey, state
manager for the telephone and tele-
graph company, and formerly man
ager for the city of Phoenix as well
as for the state, disclosed that Frank
S. Cundiff has been promoted from
the position of state cashier to that
ment becomes effective at once, and
William A. Tremmel of Denver will
succeed Mr.. Cundiff as state cashier
for the company.
Mr.. McVey said the addition to the
CACNuLlNC PGIoOAillCl was llCCCoSdIy Uc-
cause of the rapid pace at which the
company's business is growing in
Phoenix and throughout the state. He,
as state manager, travels over Ari-
zona much of the time, and it was i'm
perative that manager be appointed
for the Phoenix office so that the local
business could at all times be under
trained supervision. Mr.. McVey
praised Mr.. Cundiff for the services
he has rendered the telephone and
telegraph company and predicted that
the Phoenix office will profit greatly
under the new arrangement of execut-
i've personnel.
The state manager said the tele-
phone business is growing at such a
rate in Arizona as to make forecasts
impossible. There are now more than
1900 telephone subscribers in Phoe-
nix. This city stands near the top,
possibly in first place, in percentage
gain of telephones for 1926 when COM
pared with all other cities in America.

Year in Review
For the State

December brought to a close a
year which has seen much material
progress in Arizona. Production of
basic commodities equalled or exceed
ed 1925 figures in practically all
cases, and business conditions over
the state mointained high level. The
most notable feature perhaps was the
great amount of new construction and
development under way; mine, rail-
road and land projects completed in
1926 aggregating $25,000,000, with
similar projects now under construc-
ton or to start in 1927 representing
SIG, 100000 more, exclusive of urban
building operations. Included in these
are new land developments which will
bring an additional half million acres
into cultivation within the next five
years, creating opportunity for a
large increase in population.
From an agricultural standpoint the
reduced returns for cotton, and to a
lesser extent for alfalfa, were an adj
verse influence, offset to a consider
able degree by increased production of
other crops and by increased interest
in more diversified farming, particu-
larly dairying. Prospects of re-
vival of the dairy industry have at
tracted particular attention, and the
closing days of the month brought
announcement that the famous Bor-
den organization had entered the Ari-
zona field by purchasing the large
milk condensary at Tempe.
The live stock industry showed
further improvement tduring the year,
both in natural conditions and mar
keting, and heavy precipitation OF the
past month gave assurance that
ranges would be well maintained. In
mining little change is apparent, ac-
tivity in new development being pro-
nounced and production carried on at
about the same rate as for the past
two years. Preliminary figures indi-
cate that the record peace-time cop
per output of 1925 was slightly ex-
ceeded in 1926.
Consistent expansion has been
shown in most business lines during
the year, including the establishment
of a number of new manufacturing
plants and Arizona branches of large
outside firms, and both summer and
winter tourist seasons have been

tanned a generally good level, though
falling below expectations in some
lines. Banking transactions in prin-
cipal cities, as reported to the Ari-
zona Industrial Congress, exceeded
those for November in most cases
but were below those for the corre--
spending month year ago.
General rains covering virtually
the whole state, and accompanied by
snow at the higher elevations, have
added to the optimistic outlook for the
livestock industry. Shrinkage Of stock
due t,O cold weather has been at a
minimum, while feed supplies are re-
ported adequate in all sections, with
prospects that range conditions will
be well maintained into the spring.
Fall cattle movement ended with
indications that shipments set a high
record for the year. During the first
