Another Social Democratic Libel.
The press bureau of the German
social democratic party published
lately sensational" statement
about the text of a secret agreement
alleged to have been made in 1924
by the Soviet and Italian govern
ments which is directed against Tur-
key, this text being at the disposal
of the said bureau. SOD.
In spite of the refutation sent alb
road by the TASS agency at the
instance of the Peoples Commissar-
lat for Foreign Affairs, the said
bureau continues to insist on the
bona fide of its communication and
quotes the text of some of the ar
ticles of the alleged agreement.
This lying communication is evil
IDENTIFY intended to create trouble be-
tween the Soviet and Turkish gov
eminent in order to make it easier
for the enemies Of the USSR to iso-
late it and to draw Turkey into the
camp of its enemies. The press
bureau of the Peoples Commissariat
for Foreign Affairs, categorically
declares that there is not a vestige
of truth in the statement of the
social democratic bureau, that the
text Of the document quoted by it is
fictitious from beginning to end and
that the stubbornness with which the
bureau insists on the bona fide of
the document is the stubbornness of
calumniator and agent of inter
national imperialism
1t should be added that the myth
about a non-eXisting Italo-Soviet
agreement against Turkey was al
ready once before taken up by the
world press, during the collision be-
tween Turkey and Great Britain
with respect to the Mosul question
and was already then officially re-
futed.

uted among the various children's

Radio Convention
VIRTUES Under the
Grip Of U. S. Trust

WASHINGTON, Oct. 18.-An-
other week of technical discussion
will be required before delegates to
the international radio telegraph con-
vention are prepared to risk their
proposals for drafting a new world
communication treaty on the floor of
the conference.
For U. s. Trust.
Secretary of Commerce Hoover,
president of the convention, after
having excluded delegates from the
Union Of Socialist Soviet Republics
(tho Russia was the first country to
propose and organize radio tele-
graph convention) is now straining
every nerve to retain the monopoly
of the air by the big broadcasting
concerns in America, and to give
these an advantage in European and
South American trade. The Ameri-
can monopoly is maintained by a gov
ernmental commission for granting
rights to wave lengths, established by
law this year, and soon to be headed
by Secy. Hoover.
ReactiOnary Amendments.
Among the possible fireworks
stimulators are:
Move to consolidate the inter
national radio-telegraph convention
and the International Telegraph AS
ISOLATION.
Proposals to reallocate the vot-
ing strength of the nations repre-
scented, SO as to give more power to
the great imperial powers.
3.-Hoover's demand that the
rights of private ownership" be full
ly observed in drawing up the 1927
treaty, which will supplant that of
the convention of 1912.
Proposal to change the name of
the organization to the international
radio convention.
5.-Question of greater recognition
of the rapidly developing art of
broadcasting as distinguished from
commercial communication. 1t is con-
tended that broadcasting is really
educational or propaganda service.

OUR BUILDING RECORD

More than $4,000 spent in Tempe the first three
months of this year for new buildings and building re-
ments of which the people Of Tempe and vicinity may
justly feel proud This expenditure also, is simply an
indication that citizens of Tempe are beginning
to realize the opportunities open in this town for profit
able investment. Money spent buildings or for
improvement of existing structures is Of course
of the best investments that be made in any grow
The record Of $4,000 also will be greatly eclipsed
during the next three months when the permit is taken
out for repairs the Casa Iona hotel This permit
expected to request work costing about $30000 which
will bring the total amount expended here for the first
half of 1927 to about $4,000.
The record made by the permits issued this spring
in itself inspiring manifestation of confidence again
awakening in Tempe But this is secondary to the fact
that buildings going up and improvements
being made will encourage others to do their part toward
continuing the growth and improvement of the town.

coveries of the decade, equalling, if
not eclipsing the great strike at

Ever since this announcement
thousands of mining investors, griz-
lied prospectors and curious public
inspired with the pioneer spirit of a
great mining revival, have been trek
king their way by auto, horse and
pack train to the scene of the dis
covery, there to be convinced with
their own eyes of the remarkable
richness of ore uncovered and the
wide extent of ore bodies.
"The greatest find since Tonopah"

the Arizona public is to be given a
chance to share in that discovery.

INDIANS HAD NO USE
FOR GENERAL CUSTER

Shortly after the massacre of Gen
eral Custer and his troops, | met
Rain in the Face. [ asked him who
killed Custer. He replied that Gus
ter had several wounds and nobody
knew who shot him. After a slight
pause he added, in a tense voice as
if depressing emotion, "He was a
bad man and a liar, and women and
children slept better when they
knew he was dead"
In using the word liar, he made
the sign of a forked tongue by put
ting two outstretched fingers in
front of his mouth What he re-
ferred to was an incident in Okla
homa, a few years before Clusters
death. The general had attacked a
big camp of Cheyennes, Kiowas and
Arapahoes there. The Indians were
not on the warpath, but Custer met
with considerable loss, including
Captain Hamilton, great grandson
of Alexander Hamilton. The In
dams themselves lost very heavily,
including some women and children.
The survivors were set adrift des-
titute of everything, Piles were
made of their teepees, poles, robes,
and all their other belongings of no
use to their captors, and the whole
lot was destroyed by fire.
Eastern hUmanitarians protested
against Clusters action in attacking
what was represented to be a peace
full village. But at that time on
the frontier it was impossible to
paint the Indian devil TOO black.
"The only good Indian is dead
Indian" This was attributed to
Sheridan. He never said it, but it
was a common expression.-Gen. Eli
L. Higgins in the American Mercury.

ARK NSAWER-GYPSY
GIRL; 500 VANISHED

"Come inside where we can be
alone, Daddy, and I'll read your
fortune" a pretty black-haired Gyp-
sy lass last Saturday told James
Williams, proprietor of fruit stand
near Hayden's Curve on the Tempe
Mesa road. "She took hold of my
hand when we were inside out of
sight," Mr.. Williams said. "Then
she put her other hand into my hip
pocket where I keep my money and
took out $40 and my handkerchief.
~ don't want the money, she told
me, when l saw what she had in her
hand. just wanted the handkerchief
to help me tell your fortune. She
then gave me back what l thought
was all the money, and / didn't know
I was short $40 until the car was
out of sight," Mr. Williams said.
A closed car stopped at the Will
liams fruit stand Saturday afternoon
and the young Gypsy girl and two
small boys got out. They bought
dozen oranges and the girl then
sent the boys down the road a few
rods to the car before she proposed
to tell Mr., Williams fortune. The
fruit stand proprietor went into his
little store with the girl where those
in the car could not see them, he
said, and he is $40 short as the
result of the private reading" she
