Returning from meeting OF
highway workers held at Tucson
yesterday, an Ell Centre Chamber
of Commerce group reported repre-
sentative attendance from commun-
tiles from Lordsburg TO San Diego.
The matter of publicizing the Sou
thern highway routes in Southern
Arizona and Southern California
was discussed, and the conclusion
was reached to make a survey on
January l to enlist communities on
the route in plan for communal
advertising of this highway. The
group from Ell Centre travelled as
far east as Lordsburg, to study traf-
fic conditions there, and to investi-
gate the road situation and the dl
versions being made at Lordsburg
over other routes.
I'VE need have no hesitation -
said Manager Hays Of the Cham
ber of commerce, "in recommending
travel over the route from Benson
to Lordsburg by way of Wilcox, as
this road is we'll graded and grav-
eled. We travelled the route yester
Gay in a binding rain storm and
had no difficulty. The surface was
firm, and even during the rain, free
from soft mud. The night previous
we had travelled the same route be
fore rain fell, and we found it prac
tically dustleSS. An effort is being
made in Southern Arizona to have
this Wilcox route placed In the Ari-
zona State Highway system for i'm
provement with state and federal
funds.
Some of the party visited the Chi
licahua National Monument, and
reported it to be far more interest
ing than the stories about it. There
are there" said Henry Harris OF
the English Village Inn, about 5000
acres of perfectly balanced rocks,
some of them pinnacles hundreds of
feet tall, in every possible shape and
form.
In addition, this wonderland of
rocks lies in a very beautiful for.

balanced rocks, is worth visit, and

CHAPLIN SAYS
FILM NOT To
SAT|RIZE NRA

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 81. O.p) =
Charlie Chaplin would have it
known he is strong for the NRA
and has no intention of satiriZing
the movement in his newest film,
now in production.
Chaplin told the United Press to-
day he had noted paragraphs in
the press that his current produc-
tion, known only as NO. s." was
intended as satire on the NRA.
Il wish to state there no such
purpose on my part" Chaplin said.
May be permitted to say, being
a great admirer of President Roose-
welt and in entire sympathy with his
policies. my organization is run in
compliance with NRA rules. I am
making comedy picture with no
endeavor to comment or satrize on
social or political affairs
Chaplin, incidentally, is operating
his studio on five-day, 30-hour
week basis.
The picture has an industrial
background, but beyond that, Chap
lin has declined TO discuss the
story.
