EXTRA SESSION CALLED BY
THE GOVERNOR ADDS MORE
MUD TO POLITICAL WATERS
Continued from page II

6IS.
(5) To enact law accepting on be-
half of the state, the benefits Of the
Purnell act passed by congress by
which the University of Arizona
would receive an endowment from the
government for agricultural expert
ment stations and for other purposes.
(6) To enact a measure for the
creation OF colony for mentally de-
fective children and to make an ade-
quate appropriations for the colony.
The governors proclamation, after
giving the sections under which he is
issuing the call, states that the legis-
lature is not now in session for the
reason that it has recessed until April
18, 1927.
He then declares that because of
the present extraordinary situation
in which the state government finds
itself because Of the unforeseen and
unprecedented policy which the Eighth
legislature has adopted it appears
that a special session is Imperative
He points out that the legislature
failed. in the general appropriation
bill to make adequate appropriations
for many Of the state departments
and institutions, and also failed to pass
the measure as an emergency bill
which would exempt the bill from the
time limitation placed on non-emer-
gency measures by the constitution.
The failure of the Legislature TO adj
journ sine die, he states, at the close
of the constitutional period and its
remaining technically in session viii
prevent the appropriation bill from
becoming effective until 90 days after
the session does adjourn sine die. If
the legislature adjourned sine die on
April IS, the date to which it has re-
cessed, he states, the appropriation
bill would not become effective until
July 18. At present he points out there
is no means of determining when the
legislature will adjourn, which leaves
many of the state institutions faced
with the necessity Of making q whole
sale violation Of the state laws to fl
nance their operation.
The state, he explains, has never
provided a capital account for the
operation Of the highway department
which has made it necessary to oper-
ate the department on credit creating
an outstanding Indebtedness running

The Standard Mills Inc, are on a
deal to sell their mill to the Cady
Lumber corporation.
John Zalaha, manager of the Stand
ard Mills, with local officials of the
Cady Lumber corporation left the first

Santa Fe officials. It is rumored that
should the Cady Lumber corporation
buy the Standard people out that they
will build railroad out from here to

of the night class students of the
Americanization work, has been
giving them instruction in dancing,
and has discovered, he believes,
some very marked talent.
According to Miss Wagner, Voni-
10 frowns upon modern dances,
branding them vulgar and unartis.
tic, and insists upon dignified and
rhythmical interpretation of the
Latin dances. Vonino claims that
the Latin dances are the basis of all
really classical dancing, and are the
most graceful and pleasing of all
folk dances.
Miss Wagner asks the attendance
of all FL Centrans at this program,
not only to encourage the students
in their efforts, but because she be-
licyes it will prove the ultimate IN
entertainment, and will be of such
interest that more programs of this
nature will be desired in the future.
Another feature which will give
the event an international flavor
will be the appearance of the ma
tionalities represented in the Ameri-
canization classes of which there
are nine, in native costumes, and
the singing of America the Bear
tiful' by the assembled representa-
tives of foreign nations.

LIQUOR
RUNNERS HELD ON
FEDERAL CHARGE

George Tunstall, w. S. Morris, II.
?. Tunstall, Frank Harrison and
Tom Tunstall were arraigned before
Z. ). Commissioner c. F.. Scott YES
terday aArnoon on charges of con-
spiracy to violate the tariff act of
1922. They are charged with at.
tempting to bring $50 pint bottles
"f beer into the United States from
Mexico.
All five entered pleas of not
guilty to the charges and bail in
each case was fixed at $4,000. The
men were all ordered committed to
the county Jail following their ar
ralgnment upon failure to furnish
bail bonds
The ease grows out of the wild
chase of customs Officers and at
taches of the sheriff s office stag
ed last Thursday night between Ca
lexico and FL Centre. Bullets
whirled and car driven by Gus
tom s officials, which was giving
chase to the machine in which the
alleged intoxicants were carried
crashed into ditch but the off
GERS escaped serious injury.
Although the alleged rum running
car got away from the officials at
the start it was Later rounded up as
was another car used by the men
as a pilot. Four of the men were
placed under arrest Thursday night
George Tunstall was released the
next day but when he appeared yes
terday a charge was brought
against him.
w. S. Morris, II. p. Tunstall and
Frank Harrison have been in the
county jail awaiting arraignment
since Thursday while Tom Tunstall
faced a similar charge when he APP
peared yesterday afternoon. A

FOREIGN STUDENTS TO GIVE
PROGRAM HERE FRIDAY NIGHT

Castanets viii click, bright sha wis
flash, and lovers Of all that is best
in dancing will be offered rare
treat on Friday night Of this week
when the Americanization classes
under the supervision of Miss Julia
Wagner will present at the Wilson
school, program of Latin Ameri-
can dances.
These dances will be presented i'll
native costume, and promise to
strike a new note in high class Of
ferings shown in FL Centre. The
students of the Americanization
classes have been practising strenu-
ouslv under the direction of Signor
Vonino, an Italian from South
America, who is studying English
under Miss Wagner.
Signol Nonino is in himself a
striking figure. Born in Montcvid-
60, Uruguay, and moving at an early
age to Buenos Aires, his background
is such as to make him peculiarly
proficient in the spirited dances of
the Latins. Signor Vonino is some
what of a cosmopolite, having Wis
tied all the principal cities of
France, Italy, the Holy Land, Swit-
zerland, South America, Cuba. Mex
leo and Northern Africa. Vonino
served in the World War, being for
short time in the American Red
Cross service, and was thrice deco
rated by the republic of France for
distinguished service and valor.
Vonino is direct heir to the title Of
Marquis de Mendez Ceballos, but
for family reasons, as well as indi-
vidual preference for a more demo-
cratic title, prefers to be known sim
ply as Signor Vonino.
Nonino, who speaks Spanish, Ital-
ian and French fluently, has acted
as dancing master in many famous
academies in continental cities, was
one of the first to successfully in
troduce the Argentine tango in Par
is, and is an accomplished pianist
as well. He is at present taking up
the study Of English hoping to take
advantage of some of the highly lu-
crative offers he has received to ap.
pear on the American concert stage.
The dancing will, it is believed by
Miss Wagner, please all those who
attend, as it offers a veritable poet
ry of motion. Vonino, upon request

GIRLS WITH BoBs oUsTED

MUNICH, Germany, Jan. 3l.---
Word has reached here of Il minia-
turc peasant uprising against bob
bed hair. Two young Niennese WON
en-, accompanied by their husbands,
arrived in the Alpine village of
Lungau and, tired after long
tramp, removed their hats. Shocked
villagers observed that their heads
were bobbcd.
Turning in an emergency fire
alarm, one of the local citizens has
tily summoned the village grey
boards to il conference. The meet
ing promptly decided that the two
Viennesc Alpinists must be deport
cd from Lungau. Despite rain and
chill darkness, the bobbed -haireC
women were routed out of the inn
at night and forced to leave the
precincts by a crowd of indignant
villagers,

RUMORS OF new
FORD CARS FAIL
TO MAT1[E['RIALIZE / /

TO let the perennial rumors which
spring up about Ford plans die of
thcjr own impotence seems to be the
policy Of the Ford Motor Company.
| January first has come and gone,
! but the new Ford six-cylinder car
which Wall Street declared so per-
sistently would be born on that date
has failed to put in an appearance.
Neither has anybody seen anything
of the new Ford eight.
Bill Hinderks, of Edgar Bros. Co.,
local Ford dealers, talked to an
eastern Ford dealer the other dav
who said he has lived prosperously
through 20 years of rumors and
counter-rumors and recalled some of
the facts surrounding the latest
flight of somebody's Imagination
which succeeded in getting into the
news columns.
"When the tip about the two
new Ford ears began to spread
| through stock market channels
about the first of December he
said. "it was greeted in the Detroit
offices Of the Ford Motor Company
with large amount of silence.
Neither denial or affirmation was
voiced by Ford officials for 10 days.
Even then no public statement was
made, but in a letter to dealers Ed
sci Ford made this cryptic remark:
'There will be no new model and no
new Ford ear is going to be intro
duced.
"Analysis Of this rumor, as of
many others in the past, shows it to
be absurd on the face of it. Henry
Ford is already building an eight
cylinder rar--the Lincoln-and the
popularity of the Ford four cylinder
car in the low price class has been
so predominating for 20 years that
the greatest industr:a- concern in
the world has been built on its sue
cess. Nobody but an insane per-
son would think of jeoparGizing its
position. Many thinking people have
come to me in the past 80 days, -
said Hinderks, "and expressed SUBJ
stantially these same thoughts. I
consider their expressions indicative
of the confidence which the public
III general has in Ford products and
Ford policies. -

WHlPPET SIX
POPULAR WITH
MOTOR PUBLIC

An extension of the Whippet type
of construction to include a produc,
in the six cylinder field is evidenced
this year in the presentation of the
Whippet Six.
This move, on the part of WHY'S
Overland was not unlocked for by
those prominent in the trade and
comments passed on the product
have been highly favorable.
Like its predecessor, the Whippet
four cyclinder model, this new cal
incorporates many features Of oper-
alton which are exceptional in the
light six field at the present time.
In appearance it is not unlike the
Whippet, and the body lines, except
as they are adapted to the longer
wheel base, follow those of the orig
inal light car.
The Whippet type of body is
characterized by low roof lines Oil
the enclosed models, by the absence
of any break in the body contours
at the cowl, by sweeping fullness
at the rear and by generally low
swung appearance.
In this respect, the Whippet six
differs materially from any other
product in its size and price class. | t
looks clean and speedy like the
thoroughbred from which it took its
name.
In mechanical features, low
centre of gravity, marked road
stability, high speed capacity and
quick stopping are claimed by the
engineers.
The weight of the car has been
kept low, not only through the type
of construction in the frame and in
the low lines of the car, but the
power plant is also hung low in the
frame and the suspension is of a
type developed by WillysOverland
engineers to meet modern require
ments of stability.
Speed up to 60 miles an hour is
claimed, with wide range of flex-
ibility in high gear, eliminating nee
essity for frequent gear change in
traffic.
Developments in carburction and
intake manifold design have result.
cd in low fuel consumption and rec
ords consistent with the perform
ancc of the Whippct light four mo-
tor are anticipated.
Four wheel brakes arc standard
equipment and are of the same type
of design as those used on th2
Whippet light four. On this ear,
these brakes have shown an ability
to stop the ear, in strikingly short
distances from all speed ranges.
The brakes are large in size, mo
chanical in type, and the brake
bands are fully enclosed against dirt
or water.
WHY'S Overland engineers have
attained notable results in the devcl-
opment of high motor torquc and
the Whippet Six is no exception in
this respect. 1t has hill climbing
ability which is notable in view of
its high speed capacity of high gear
and its general motor fleXibility.
