AUTHORIZATION
FOR GRAZING
ISSUE

TUCSON, Jan. 10 (P-Authorization
for the issuing of grazing permits for
not more than 42,O75 head of cattle
and horses, 500 head of goats and 200
head of swine in the Coronado national
forest during the year commencing
April 1, 1928, has been received from
the U. S. secretary OF agriculture, ac-
cording to announcement made today
by Fred Winn, supervisor of the Coro-
nado forest
OF the cattle and horse figure, more
than 95 per cent probably will repre-
sent cattle.
The cattle authorization is 700 head
greater than that of last year in order
to take care of the conservative graz
ing requirements of an area in the Fort
Huachuca military reservation that re-
Gently was added to the Coronado ma
tional forest, Winn said
Rangers are now taking applications
for permits "The authorization is
based on a conservative stocking of
the ranges in this forest" Winn ex-
planned.

HOUSE REFUSES
APPROPRIATION
PATROL

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 lP-A de-
termined, but unsuccessful move to
increase by $5O0,O00 the S7,1O0OOO
provided in labor department appr3-
priations for the, next fiscal year for
enforcement of the immigration laws
was made today in the house.
Under the leadership OF Chairman
johnson OF the immigration commit
tee, group Of members insisted that
insufficient funds were being provided
for enforcement of the border patrol
activities of the immigration service.
An amendment by johnson to pro-
vide an additional half million dol
lars for this purpose was defeated
on standing vote, 80 to 72. Shortly
after, Chairman Shreve OF the appro-
priations committee in charge OF
the state, justice, commerce and labor
departments supply bill made an
effort to pass the bill before adjourn
ment.
This was blocked by Representa-
tive Blanton, democrat, Texas, who
demanded the reading OF an engraved
copy of the measure which was not
available, SO a final vote went over
until tomorrow.
Johnson announced at that time he
would seek again to have the $5OO,O0O
appropriation approved and would
demand roll call vote.

An upheaval in the affairs of the
cafes and cabarets Of Aqua Prieta that
has been about to occur for some days
PAST burst yesterday with the dual
announcement, first that the Interna-
tional club which has been closed for
several days is to reopen under the
management of Medo and Johnson
and second that Jack GoldStein's orr
cheStra has been retained to play at
the popular White Horse club, while

ed with having created vast amount
of the popularity of the White Horse,
will open the international. -
Jack Goldstein and his orchestra
played at the international under the
old management The club was closed
Immediately after the first of the year
and through the holders of the prop
erty it has now been secured by Medo

ENaco. This organization started in
bright and. early yesterday morning to
tear the insides out of the club and
replace them before Saturday night
as they announce that it is their in
tention to hold a grand opening on

No explanation of the sudden changes
lin orchestras was made yesterday
either by Medo and Johnson or by
Joseph Pavelka, the proprietor of the
White Horse. Both orchestras are
good so that there is debate ove1

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 10 F1-An
investigation by the American Bar as

it's administration was proposed here
today in a report submitted TO
The executive committee of the as
sociation by the committee on crimln-
al law and criminology.
other reports submitted recommends
ed codification of international law as
a means toward peace and regula-
ton of aviation by states, as well as
by the federal government.
The executive committee ended Its
nid-wintG,' meeting tonight. The re-
ports submitted will be acted upon at
the regular meeting of the associa-
ton at Seattle, Wash, beginning July
%.
The report of the committee OH
criminal law submitted by Justin Mill
er, Los Angeles, chairman, contained
the statement that "the criminal class
which has been developed to evade the
prohibition law is engaging in all man.
ner of other crimes" and that the
"official protectors" of the criminals
have to protect them in their other
crimes as well.
This brings on, the report said, "a
general lawlessness with killings, rob-
berries and the rest, and with few ar
rests few convictions and rising dis
trust of the courts and officials gen.

FORDS
HAVE BUSY DAY
AT AUTO SHOW

NEW YORK, Jan. 10 (P1-The FordS
and the Edisons had quiet little visit
today while a crowd Of thousands
jostled around them, pushing and pull
ing and jockeying for just glimpse
of the two white haired giants OF the
machine age.
The occasion was the electrical wiz
ards inspection of Fords exhibition OF
automobiles, airplanes, tractors and
machines of many kinds at Madison
Square Garden. Police arrangements
were SO thorough that the two men
and their wives moved peacefully from
one exhibit to another in a solid cir
Gle of blue uniforms against which
the crowd pushed in vain.
Both men were in high spirits, both
pretending to be frightened at the
flashlights of news canleramen and
Edison making jests audible only to
his own party. Ford had to lean close
to the inventors right ear to shout his
comments and Edison, as if Ford were
deaf too, replied in like manner.
After inspecting the exhibition, Mrs.
Ford and Mrs. Edison left and the two
men escaped from the crowd in the
office of Tex Rickard, where they had
chat with the boxing promoter
Then, eluding the waiting reporters
and photographers, they slipped out a
rear door and drove away together IN
Ford's waiting car.

SALESMAN TELLS
OF MEXICAN RULE
THAT CUTS TRADE

That statesmen for mercantile firms
of the United States are finding inn
posts in addition to the usual tariffs
exacted by the Mexican government
real handicap to their business and
that in some lines it is cutting the
sales as much as SO per cent from
the totals of one year ago is the
assertion of Bert E. Kingston, Jr..
who is at the Gadsden hotel on his
usual visit to the trade and will
shortly travel into Mexico for a
period. He makes Mexico from diff
a portion from Nogales and now will
work from Douglas and then from
Ell PaSo. He is a salesman for a
novelty company that caters especially
to the tastes that have been pre-
dominant in the interior of Mexico.
"My trade has been seriously re-
duced from year ago because OF
the new imposts in addition to the
usual tariffs and which added to
the usual tariffs, the municipal taxes,
the consular fees and other exactions
make it impossible for the Mexican
to afford to buy the articles we
SELL" said Kingston. For example.
here are rings that the retail price
ought to be say so to rs cents each
but the additional charge for taking
them in probably would be six pesos
a dozen. Now the Mexican could
not afford to buy it with the extra
charge because they get only a small
wage and they simply could moi
afford it. Here is a type OF pocket
book that we use to be able to sell
There has been a large added charge
on leather goods and now this is out
of the reach OF the buyer when al
the charges and taxes have been paid
, My business below the boundary line
has been slashed almost in half BY
the new charges placed against I'M
portationS within the last year"

RECEIVERSHIP
OF C. M. & ST. P.
Is TERMINATED

WASHINGTON, Jan 10 up Re-
ceivership over the Chicago Milwaukee
and st. Paul railroad in effect was
terminated today when the Interstate
Commerce commission finally approx
ed creation of new corporation and
issuance Of securities necessary to COM
plete a reorganization.
The new company, the Chicago Mil
waukee, st. Paul and Pacific railroad,
was given permission to take over the
II, 200 miles of the old st. Paul system.
1t further was empowered to issue
/ 1,174,O60 shares of common stock with
out par value, $119,845, 300 in preferred
stock; $1O6,395 096 in five per cent
mortgage bonds and $182 2,983,693 in five
per cent adjustment mortgage bonds,
all of which securities will be ex-
changed for obligations OF the old st.
Paul company under terms OF a plan
prepared in the federal courts.
The st. Paul receivership, ordered
by the federal district court at Chicago
in 1925, resulted from inability of the
company to meet its obligations. The
court has approved reorganization
plans and, now that it has been sane
toned by the Interstate Commerce
commission, is expected to go through
the formality of dissolving the receiv-
ership without delay.
In reaching the decision, the COM
mission set aside objections to the re-
organization advanced by committee
of the old roads bond holders, headed
by o. G. Jameson of New York.

GIRL WITNESS
(Continued from Page Onel

Jailers said they understood the
three physicians wanted Hickman to
take the "lie test" in which ma
chine registers emotional vibrations.
This he refused to do and was not
compelled to submit to it.
Whether Hunt and Hickman will
be tried together or separately for
Thoms murder remained an open
question today. A. Gray Gilmer, at
torney for Hunt, moved at the boys
arraignment that he be tried separ-
ately from Hickman. District At
torney Asa Keyes asked for time to
prepare a counter motion and was
given until Friday at 2 p. m, at
which time it was expected Judge
Carlos Hardy would rule on the point
point.
Late yesterday indications were Civ
en- that Hunt would be tried Separ-
ately, and in juvenile court, when
Deputy District Attorney Forrest Muir
ray expressed the opinion that such
action was the only proper procedure,
He stressed the fact that Hunt is
under the 18-year age limit, pre-
venting the imposing of death SEN
tence, as likely to force the separate
trial. Today's action of Murray's
superior, Keyes, revealed that the
point had not been settled as pre-
viously Indicated but that the de-
cision would rest with the court.
Hickman underwent his first ex-
animation by a defense expert wit
ness on his insanity plea today when
DIR. j. M: Fettis, Sioux City, Iowa,
physician, visited the young prisoner.
He questioned the youth for more
than an hour behind the drawn
blinds of the jailers office,
DR.. Fettis, following the visit tc
the Jail, said he had given Hickman
complete medical examination. In
cluded in this was an examination OF
the prisoners spinal fluid.
Hickman was in, iovial spirits when
he greeted the defense physician. He
had just read a letter sent from New
York and signed Andrew Cramer' in
which the letter writer assumed all
blame for the Staying of Marian
Parker.
"That guys crazier than am" was
Hickman's only comment on the let
ter
