ARIZONA WAR VETER-
ANS RECEIVE 1884,
9O2.2S |NU. S. LOANS

Arizona war veterans
have received S2,994,902.28
as loans on adjusted service
certificates since congress
increased the loan value on
the soldiers bonus forms, E..
r. Benke, regional manager,
United States veterans ad-
ministration, announced.
At leasst S1,500,000 of
this amount has been dis
bursed to men living in
Phoenix or in the Central
Arizona area close to Phoe-
nix. Altogether, 7,757 ap-
plicants had received checks
up to the close of business
Monday, Mr.. Benke said.
In the four months period
since congress passed the
amendment to the adjusted
compensation a ct. more
than S793,OOO,O00 has been
paid out as loans to 1904
500 World War veterans.
The close of the fiscal
year, too, marked the eX-
pirationof the time during
which veterans could file
war risk insurance cases in
the federal courts, unless
there were special circum-
stances in the individual
case which arose before July
l, 1881, veterans admins
ton officials said.
Referring to the increased
responsibilities of the vet
eran's bureau since July 3,
1880, resulting from the
passage of new legislation
vitally affecting the rights
of World War veterans, Mr..
Benke said that ''in addi-
ton to the bureaus normal
activities which have deve-
loped over a period of years,
its gigantic responsibilities
have been increased by two
entirely new and unusually
extensive obligations-the
rendering of service to vet
Grams entitled to the disabil-
ity allowance benefits pro-
vided by the amendment of
July 3, 1880, to the World
war veterans act, and to ad-
ditional loans to adjusted
service certificates"

l4,OOO NEXICANS
LEAVE ARIZONA

A tabulation Of records in
the Mexican consulate at
Phoenix reveals the 1000
Mexicans, most of them
longtime residents of Ari-
zona, have returned to MeXi-
co through the office since
January /, 1881.
Luis Castro, Mexican con-
sui in Phoenix, estimated
that approximately 1000
more have passed through
the consulates at Tucson,
Nogales, Douglas, NacO, and
Yuma.
More than 95 per cent of
the families returning, Cas-
tro said, carried with them
household goods and in
many cases automobiles.
The largest single exodus
recorded was last week
when 1T Mexicans left the
Ray-Sonora district for their
homeland due to the mines
where they have been work
ing having shut down.
The majority of those who
have returned during the
last five and one-half
months, Castro said, were
not Inherent labors, but es-
tablished Arizona residents.
The average length or resi-
dence in this state, he raid,
was three years. Many he
added, had lived here from
Is to 20 yeras.
Lack of work, Castro as
serted, was the underlying
cause for more than SO per
cent" of his nationals return
ing to the southern republic.
The Mexican state of So
nora has drawn the greater
number Of those returning.
MeXicans passing through
the Phoenix office came
from Maricopa, Coconino,
Pinal, Yavapai, and ella
counties.
The consul said that most
of those who reached So
nora have found work. Al
though Mexico has been hit
hard by the worldwide de-
preston, he said, many
mines are operating and
considerable road building
is going on in Sonora.-St.

"The hot days and warm

"Hot days, in some places
unusually hot, and very
warm nights prevailed over

CHA COUNTY COUPLE
OBTAINS LICENSE

A ella county Mexican
couple, residents of Arizona
for about ten years, yester-
day, ran amuck with Uncle
Sans marriage institution
or at least they had lost a
stiff argument.
Here's what happened.
In 1928, during the month
of November the couple, Of
middle age, came to Globe
from their ranch in North
ern Gila County and was is
sued a marriage license.
After receiving it they left
for home, framed the Ii
cense, placed it in a promi-
nent place and lived happi-
ly until just a few days ago.
Then a friend, who is
more wise in the ways of the
American laws than they,
told them they weren't mar
ried and were likely to be
deported to Mexico because
of it.
Surprised at the news
but not wanting to be de-
ported and wishing to make
sure Of their position they
asked advice of ella county
officials.
They were married late
yesterday. That's all.-Ari-

Of legal record after Janu-
ary /, 1882, according to
Charles Francis, secretary of
the state livestock sanitary
board.
The law, which was pass
ed by the tenth legislature,
makes every tenth year a re-
recording year from now on,
and the last re-recording set
at that time by arbitrary
ruling of the sanitary board,
was in 1929 the Inspector
said.
The re-recording of the
brands is made direct to the
sanitary board, and a fee of
50 is charged instead of the
So fee which accompanies
the original recording of a
brand in Arizona. The diff
ference in the cost, the in
spector points out is due to
the lack of advertising when
the brand is re-recorded,
which is necessary in the
case of the original record.
