the consideration of the Pan American
conference at a plenary session Oh
Friday. The delegates will take up

complete.
1t is probable that this session
also will receive the final report OF
the intellectual cooperation commit
tee, which wound up its affairs
today
indications from the American
delegation, which is endeavoring to
speed up the sessions, point to the
termination of the conference about
the third week in February, but some
of the delegates are CT the opinion
that it will not end before March L.
A complicated and exceedingly
technical discussion of the manner
in which the American union
affairs should proceed with its prob
lens took up completely today's
session of that committee to the
exclusion of any positive action
Sufficient evidence was at hand
however, to show that majority
of the committee were favorable to

of a telegram announcing mat the
carload of cabriolets and sport
roadsters that the company had
ordered had been sent from the
factory on Jan. 25 ana ti1atN tracers
would keep it moving along TO its
destination, the Copper City Motor
company yesterday received teie-
gram from the Nash Moor company
announcing q price reduction of their
various models ranging from $40 on
the standard four door sedan TO-
$1OO on the advanced six. The prices
are made Immediately effective and
the various cuts are shown in the,
advertisement of that fact in another
page OF this issue.
The latest shipment is expected In
Douglas any day now and will ma
terially augment the floor stock of
the Copper City company The sales,
however, have been keeping the stock
fer immediate delivery quite low but.
the company is keeping shipments
coming along every few days SO that
it has had no difficulty in keeping
up in delivery to date.
The new cars that will be unloaded
next are the same style as is now
on display in the New York auto
mobile show and has every accessory
and part that is shown ON the ex-
hibit cars, including the wire wheels
They are forecasted by the manage
ment of the local company as being
the last word in better automobiles
and with the price reduction, it is
the contention of the Copper City
company that they are the big
bargain in the automobile field
today.

HOSPITAL5 WITH

Now ard then something happens
that Right be catalogued as news and
when the reporter went to the county
hospital yesterday shortly after noon
he found one of those things. The
nurse said, "eThere, isn't any news here
today. everybody in the hospital is in
good health.
News is described as anything that
is unusual so when one hears that
there is a hospital with some 60 pat
tents all of whom are in good health
one of two things has occurred, either
someone has told fib or the unusual
has happened thereby making the
statement news.
In this case no one has fibbed. There
are a number of patients at the coun-
ty hospital who have been very SICK
but they are in good health now and
only waiting for nature to give them
back their strength so that although
some of them can hardly turn over IN
bed they are not sick. e

surgical instruments and supplies yes
terday or fed those weak patients to
bring them the quicker back to full
strength and contemplated the spec
tacle of their sickleSs institution, but
remarked that such situation would
not long remain and every time the

JONES TO HAVEBOWDEN FINDS
HAND SHAPING ANOTHER CACHE
THEIR new LAWOF STOLEN GOODS

Chief of Police Percy Bowden an
nounced the recovery yesterday morn
ing of an additional 5000 worth of
loot from robberieS committed in
Douglas during the past few months.
The first big consignment of stolen
goods recovered was unearthed in a
private residence in Aqua Prieta but
the second find was made in Douglas
by the officers who, through the CO.
operative system connected the two
residences with a suspect and issued
search warrants on this side of the
border also.
The entire lawless element Of the
district seems to have gone on va
cation since the uncovering of the
first of the robbery loot and no ar
rests have been made the past "a
hours although some Is men of the
various law enforcement squads have
relaxed their vigil in an attempt to
catch a burglar and have turned their
attention to the routine patrol duties
of their various offices.
/ The police are narrowing down the
search for the burglars. 1t is re-
ported that some five or six men are
suspected of being members of a burg
larry ring and to have disposed of the
stolen goods at the two hiding places
found. That no goods have SO far beer
unearthed to connect the twilight
burglar with these hiding places was
the statement of officers yesterday
but that the twilight burglar is
member of the ring is the belief oi

pect to arrest number of those i'm
plicated.

FLIER WONDERS
AT DELAY0OVER
BUILDING PORT

G. w. Munsell of the Munsell-Brill
flying service, said yesterday that he
was at a loss to account for the appar-
ent lack of interest locally in the pro-
posed international airport Munsell
said, There is not town or city in
the United States better, situated to
capitalize the eoming commercial avia-
ton than Douglas is. "a
"If this city will build its interna-
tional port and make first class land
ing field of it it will mean much busi-
ness to Douglas, and do not believe
that the whole project would cost
more than $4,000" continued Munsell.
Munsell went on TO point out that
Aqua 2rieta officials in conjunction
with the government of the federal
district CT which Aqua Prieta is a part
has prepared to place square mile of
land at the disposal of the aviation
boosters and the flyer said that it was
necessary, be willing to assist finan-
cially in the building of the field.
Munsell related that he himself is
about to secure permission for flying
across the border with the planes which
he is using here. He said that it al
most appeared that the MeXieans were
more progressive and willing to CO.
operate toward creating progress in
than the people of Douglas
are.
The flying service official said that
he had noted the gallant efforts of
many small towns throughout the state
to build ports in places and on lands
not nearly SO well suited to the prop
osition as are the lands here. 4
Munsell reports progress in his own
project, that of establishing q regular
passenger and student training station
here He has just completed arrange
ments to make his permanent quarters
at the fair ground flying lield and has
had telephone installed. At the pres
ent time the service has but one ship
in flying service as the other is down
and awaiting q new motor which has
been ordered from California and
Should be here at any minute.
So we'll equipped is the machine shop
which the Munsell-Brill service has
established, that the old motor from
the student ship has been completely
dismantled and is being reconditioned
so that it will be stored to be used at
any time it is needed.
Munsell reports a large volume of
carrying business and great
er interest each day in the flying school
SO that IS soon as the new motor ar
rives the student ship will be in de-
mand all day each day giving pros

GROUNDING DAY NOT. (.
WEATHER OMEN HERE
ARIZONA TOO BRIGHT

In the areas farther north where
there is more cloudy weather more
snow and slush and less sunshine,
there is a tradition about tie advent
of the grounding from his hibernating
quarters on Feb. 2. 1t is to the
effect that if the grounding sees
his shadow when he emerges from
the hole on the morning Of Feb 2,
he Immediately retreats to his bunk
and falls asleep for another six
weeks. during which period the
weather man continues to cavort
with winter, weather, snow and ice,
But that rule is not needed in
Arizona and so, by specia1 dispensa-
ton, the grounding uses his hole
merely as Ia convenient place OF
abode when he doesn't choose to
camp out in the hills and watch the
moon and stars during the. night.
In Arizona, instead of there being
a chance Of not seeing his shadow
on Feb. 2, tlle groundhcg I would
have to slip out into the open before
it was time for the sun to appear
or else use a sunshade if he did
not want to- cast a shadow athwart
the ground. -.

Had Terrible Gas
andStomach Pains
Says He Eats Anything Now,
and Has Pep and
Health.

People who are suffering from the
pangs of stomach trouble and indi-
gestion, will be glad to read how
Frank Baker, 625 Keasley St., South
Bend, Ind, quickly overcame these
agonizing Affections. He writes as
follows:
"Since over a year ago, have
had a bad case of stomach trouble
that just wore me out, had sick
spells that left me weak, dizzy and
nervous. My appetite was very poor,
and after meals the food would not
digest, but felt like rock in the pit
of my stomach. I had burning pains
in my stomach. I could not sleep at
night even though was all tired
out. In the morning 1 got up feel
ing weaker and worse than when I
went to bed I lost weight and had
no pep at all. The first and only re-
lief came when 1 started taking
Viuna. Almost at once I began to
get well. 1 took it regularly and
soon felt like a different man. The
bilious attacks and burning pains
stopped, my appetite came back, and
my digestion improved wonderfully.
I can eat heartily again with no gas,
and no rock-like sensation in my
stomach. My nerves are steady, I
sleep splendidly every night, and feel
full of pep when get up. Life
sure looks different for me since I
got back to health, and I'm mighty
thankful to Viuna."
viuna acts promptly on sluggish
bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys. It
purifies the blood, clears the skin, re-
stores appetite and digestion, and brings
new strength and energy to the whole
body. Take a bottle on trial. Then If
you're not glad you tried Viuna, your
money will be refunded. 81 at druggists,

down against the emergency fund
and BERTHE Lou said she would try
to make it up from her household

Several weeks later she sat per-

Something was decidedly wrong.
Rod would find it at once, but she
hated to have him know she'd mud

The appropriation for entertain

manner spread out to include rec

ell, and even the dentists small
slice of their round dollar system.
1t had seemed a very generous
sum when first they had planned
the budget.
Their friends had been gorgeous
to them. BERTHE Lou and Rod didn't
want to be niggardly in returning
their hospitality. But they hadn't
expected to have so many i'm

BERTHE Lou was in despair when
Rod came home. Shed even for

him come up the stairs three at a
time, as he always did.
She jumped to her feet, scatter
ing thickly scrubbed sheets of paper

She was in the kitchen when he
opened the front door. He'd never
heard her make such a clatter.

BERTHE Lou was hurriedly putting

She was delighted at the pros
pect of having dinner with the
Frasers. Tom was an important
man in Wayville. His success in
New York was we'll known in his
