MAN ARRESTED
ON DRUGCHARGE

Continuing their drive against
narcotic s,nugglers along the border,
U. S. customs officers under the
direction of James w. Mcdonald,
customs collector for the Arizona
district, apprenended Alfredo Core
nado in Nogales Tuesday evening.
The car which he was driving is al
legged to have contained one-half
ounce of morphine. The drug was
concealed in small capsules which
had been placed in the bottom OF a
tobacco can.
This is one Of several captures
within the last ten days. More than
$4,000 worth of narcotics was found
last week when A. w. Karterman
and E. j. Down were arrested on
the Tucson Nogales highway. Gam
Kip, wealthy Chinese, alleged head
of dope ring, was taken into
custody at Tucson hotel. B. L
Cason of Nogales and Mr.. and Mrs

PARTY FIGHTS FOR LEADERSHIP
IN LOWER HOUSE OF. CONGRESS
LAUNCHED; TO BE SPECTACULAR
Democrats And Republicans Battle For Floor
AmOng Selves: Democrats To Organize
House Of Representatives

groups in each party are busily
pushing their candidate for the
floor leadership.
In the Republican ranks bit
ter battle is being waged between
the dapper Bertram D. Smell, Of
New York, hitherto chairman Of
the House rules committee, and
John @. Tilson, of Connecticut
stalwart majority leader at the last
cession of Congress.
Democratic Battle
The fight for the Democratic post
is less spectacular, but holds pro-
mise of becoming an outright battle
before the session opens. 1t now
consists chiefly of a jockeying OF
position between red-headed j. j.
O'Connor, of New York City, and
the vigorously combative Henry T.
Rainey, of Illinois.
Neither of the Democrats rate
the title under the seniority rules
of the party, although both have a
long and active service behind them.
If either gets it, it will be con-
cession from party leaders from the
South, who, under the seniority rul-
es, would hold every influential po-
sition in the House.
The concession, however, is re-
putedly already made and it now
remains a question of selection, pro-
badly to be ironed out in the DEM
ocratic caucus Dec. S. Both candi-
dates have the support of their
home delegations.
Longworth's Death
The battle between the Republi-
can leaders is traceable to the death
Of Speaker Longworth, who, with
the two, formed the triumvirate
that ruled the House last session.
The contest is for the party's can
didacy for the speaker hip, but the
Democratic control imminent, it re-
solves itself into a fight for min
GRITTY leadership.
Both Shell and Tilson are said
to have been campaigning vigor-
ously for the post throughout the
surlme:'.
Meanwhile, the Democrats are
quietly laying plans for control and
expect to maintain it by as large
margin in committee makeup az
did the Republicans lat session.

Episcopal Rector

Thanksgiving day is flop and
should be called Turkey Day, it
was declared by Rev. j. L. Patton
of the Episcopal church at the re-
gular weekly luncheon Of the Rotary
Club yesterday noon at The Cavern.
I'm in favor of doing away with
the observance of Thanksgiving day.
for it is more or less joke. I'm in
favor of abolishing the day alto
gether. Thanksgiving, so far as its
original purpose is concerned, is
now a flop, hypocritical shame.
The fundamental idea back OF
Thanksgiving is mistake" declar-
ed the minister
Rev. Patton further said that
Taanke giving is a lot of foolishness
and said that if the Lord was
blessing the United States during
the boom days at Thanksgiving
time in 1928, today he must be ours
ing US.
.This is mighty unhappy
Thank giving for millions of men
out Of work. We do not now have
occasion to pat America or any 9TH

NEW PLAN FOR
OPENING BANK
AT TOMBSTONE

TOMBSTONE, Nov. 27.-With the
return Of S. N. Spry from Phoenix
there came new hope into the bank
tituation of Tombstone and Ben
son. Mr.. Spry had been in confer
ence with the heads of the state
banking department and found that
there was a desire on the part of
those gentlemen to sanction the OPP
ening of bank in the two Co.
chise county cities, provided it could
be done on sound banking principles
After a conference with the Or
organization committee, Mr.. Spy
announces an entirely new plan
that wipes out all other attempts
to reopen the bank and virtually
lays the foundation for a reorgan-
lied banking establishment, the slate
of which will be clean. According to
this plan, the depositors Of the Co
chise County State bank will re-
ceive on the opening day 10 per
cent of their deposits in cash, and
the other 900 in trust certificates
which will be negotiable and will be
secured by a like amount Of the as
catc of tho old hank
This plan not only opens G bank
in each of the two Cochise county
cities but releases for circulation in
these two communities $4,000 al
the time Of the opening of the bank
From the point Of view CT the de-
pocitor, it meane, for example, tina;
the person who had $4,000 in the
bank when it closed, will receive
$500 on the opening day. He viii!
also receive trust certificates TO:
the other $4,000, this amount being
secured by q like amount of the
assets of the old bank. These trus
certificates will be paid off as the
affairs Of the old bank clear ur
and its assets now tied up are re-
allied upon. If the bank opens
stays open and is successful the
trust certificates will in time be re-
deemed 1000.
If this plan is approved by the
state banking department it will
establish reorganized banking in
stitution here and in Benson. Mr.
! Spry has been in touch with the
banking department for the past
week and voices not only the opin-
ion expressed above that all con-
: cerned are interested in the reOp-
/ ening of the CochiSe county inSti-
tuition, but also that if it is allow
/ ed to reopen it will mean that the
plan is absolutely sound and that
the bank itself may be cons idered
open ON a sound financial basis
Depcsitcrs may feel that the plan
is technically perfect; otherwise lle
sanction of the department will not
be given.
S. w. Ellery. state superintendent
/ of banks. has been consulted on thu
new plan and has taken it under
Amusement. The general impression
among bank officials seems to be
that the chances for the opening
CT the bank are better today thar
they have been since its closing.
