IABORERS WARNED TO STAY
AWAY FROM ARIZONA

Phoenix. Ariz., Feb. 17.-Con
tinued effort on the part of Ari
zona organizations to advise
residents Of other states not to
come to Arizona in search OF
employment, was again urged by
the Arizona Industrial Congress,
today.
Officials of the congress point
ed out that recent state and
federal action assuring an un.
usually large highway construc
ton program this year had been
given wide publicity and nigh,
tend to lead unemployed work
ers in other states to believe jobs
could be obtained here.
They suggested that publicity
likewise be given the fact tha,
there is ample supply of Arizona
labor available for all work in
sight aud that every effort is be
ing made to give state residents
preference in employment.
Action taken assures that Ari
zona resident labor will be speci
fed in highway work, while local
residents are being given prefer.
ence in municipal projects under
way in several communities and
by most private employers as
we'll.
Industrial congress executives
said that Arizona's unemploy
ment problem had been compli
Gated by the large number o1
transients and outside workers
who have come here in recent
months. They predicted that
the large amount of new work
to be started in the next few
months would do q great deal tC
provide employ ment to bona 6de
Arizonans, but urged that out
side persons should be advised
not to come to the state with the
idea of obtaining employment al
this time.

y. S. LARGEST GROWER OF MO-
HAIR FlEECES

Today's automobile is almost
entirely an achievement of our
natural resources or products.
With the exception Of rubber
which is grown in Africa. India
or South America but manufac.
tured in this country. all the
basic materials that 60 to make
an automobile are produced in
our midst. Steel, mohair, plate
glass. nickel aud lead are not
only American products, but
are, together with rubber, used
to q greater extent in making
cars than for any other pur.
pose.
Practically every state in the
Union contributes to these ma
terials, either in their raw state
or in their manufacture. For
example. our youngest and fast
est growing livestock industry,
that of angora goats, provides
the mohair which is used in max
ing mohair velvet for automo
bile upholstery. Some idea of
the demand for this durable fab
ric, otherwise known as velmo,
is gained from the fact that one
hundred million yards. it has
been estimated, are now in ser
vice in cars on The nations high
ways.
These anRora or mohair goats,
as they are more appropriately
called, originally came from
Turkey, and the United States
imported millions of fleece an
nually, but with the lntroduc
tion OF the goats into this coun
try, the mohair industry has
gradually been transferred here,
with q total annual clip Of we'll
over seventeen million pounds.
The pile fabric made from
this fleece in New England mills
is generally accepted as being
the ideal material for automo
bile upholstery because of its
long wearing quality, usually
outlasting the life of the car it
self, because it is easily cleaned
and because it affords the great
est riding comfort. all in addi
tion, Of course. to its lustrous
and beautiful appearance.
Still another commodity OF
of which the automobile industry
is it's largest consumer is gaso
line. Eighty per cent OF all
gasolins produced in this coun
try, or twelve and q half billion
gallons. is used for keeping the
nations twenty six million mo

Miss Ida M. Tarbell, dean of
American women journalists aud
famous biographer, has arrived
at the University of Arizona to
begin her conrse in biography.
Secured for the state institu
ton through the efforts of Mrs.
Fred Mccormick, winter visitor
in Tucson and friend of Miss
Trabell, the author is expected
to be q valuable addition to the
course of study for the second
semester of the school year.
Miss Tarbell is to meet her
classes three times each week
until the one unit course of stu
dy is completed. II will cover
the methods she used in plann
ing and writing her chief biog
raphies and will attempt to shape
q different approach for the stu
dent in studying biography.
Bringing Miss Tarbell to the
campus as a part Of the faculty
of the university for a short tim ,
is said TO be a new idea in educa
ton. The plan has been adopt
ed by several other universities
with much success, it is pointed
out.

are expected to be introduc
into the course are Life of

CAPITAL GROWTH
FOR YEARS SEEN
John A. Petty Cites Effect of
Millions Spent on Parks
and Highways.

The millions of dollars now being ex-
pended, or to be spent in years OF the
immediate future, for the development
of extensive parks, bridges, connected
systems of arterial boulevards and other
| major improvements will serve to stimu-
late the expansion Of Greater Washing
ton into suburban areas.
This thought Is expressed by John A.
Petty, secretary Of the Washington
Real Estate Board in summarizing
findings of study he has just completed
of population figures for the District OF
Columbia and the surrounding counties,
as contained in volume of the 1880
census report.
Some of these major Capital i'm
provements now being carried out, or
which are being planned for the near
future, are the extension of Rock Greek
Park, the Mount Vernon Boulevard,
the Fort Drive Boulevard system, link
ing the historic sites Of fortifications
about the Capital. the Lincoln Memo
rial Bridge and the Potomac Palisades
driveway.
Census Totals Compared.
Analysing the latest census figures
for the Greater Washington area, as
compared with totals of q decade ago,
Mr.. Petty states that the growth of
Washington and its immediate environs
is very definitely indicated by an In
crease Of 100,316 in the District and the
adjacent counties.
ut is interesting to note" he con-
tinues, chat this Increase was divided
almost equally between the city Of
Washington as such and the metro
politan areas in Maryland and Virginia,
There was an increase in the District of
Columbia of 1929, while the increase
in Maryland and Virginia combined
was slightly over $1,000.
1.-THE present population Of metropoli-
tan washington amounting to 672, 1873 is
distributed as follows: District of CO.
26615; Fairfax County, 25,264; Mont
gomery County, 49,2o6; Prince Georges
County, 60.095. and Alexandria, 24,149.
THE increase in population Of the
metropolitan area during the period
from 1920 to 1880 amounting to 1OO,3l6
was divided as follows: District of Co
lumbia, 1929; Arlington County,
10,575: Fairfax County. 1921; Mont
gomery County, 1925; Prince Georges
Smallest Percentage.
The District of Columbia proper
showed the smallest percentage Of in
crease in the calculation with a figure
of 11.3, while Arlington County re-
corded $50 as the highest percentage
Of increase. The percentage Of the
other areas are shown as follows: Fair
fax County. ISL; Montgomery County.
400; Prince Georges County, 1876, and
Alexandria, 1877.
1.-The area of metropolitan Washing
ton embraced In this study comprises
1874 square miles, divided as follows:
District of Columbia, 81; Arlington
County. Is; Fairfax County. 416; Mont
gomery County, sci; Prince Georges
482, and Alexandria, 8.
1.-The concentration of population in
these various areas is indicated specific
ally in the census report which shows a
density in the District of Columbia of
1887 persons per square mile. The
other areas are reported as follows:
Arlington County, 1,064.6; Fairfax
County, 60.7; Montgomery County. 94.4:
Prince Georges County. 124.7, and Alex
andria, 3,018.6."

Economy IL Stressed.
On July 6, Gov. Roosevelt Of New
York in an address made at the Uni
zens Of New York towns live under i've

for the average citizen to watch, said
the New York Executive, who pleaded
for consolidation of local units as q
means Of alleviating the tax burden
now borne by the people.

JUNE COLLYER ENDS COLD
QUICK WAY DOCTORS URGE
Find Method Used In Homes of
Many Here Instantly Relieves
Coughs and Hoarseness

BY taking the advice of doctors,
Hollywood stars have learned to
end colds at once. To accomplish
this, they use Ayers Cherry Pee
toral, approved by group of hos
pital physicians as the best of diff
ferent methods tested for head
colds, coughs and chest colds.
Typical of the quick relief is the
experience of June Collyer, noted
star. II found that a miserable
cold was lowering my vitality" says
Miss Collyer. Il simply had no en-

that the slightest hoarseneSs, cough
or sneeze would spoil the dialogue.

toral from my druggist. The taste
was really tempting and next day
my hoarsenesS was gone! I was
surprised to see for myself how
quickly my cold disappeared"
In Indianapolis homes, as in Holly
wood, Ayers Cherry Pectoral is the
first thought for colds. Ayers Pee
toral is safer than remedies which
cause one to perspire freely. They are
