Congratulations to our old friend, r. E. Thorn
ton, on the opening today his beautiful we-stock

ket,
We are always glad to new business estab-
hshment open in this city and particularly SO in the
case of the Santa Cruz Market for the publisher OF
The Nogales International feels personal interest,
account Of having known Mr.. Thornton we'll for al
most quarter of century.
We first became acquainted with Mr.. Thornton
shortly after he came to Phoenix from Texas Il years
ago In those days the publisher Of this paper was
reporter on the Arizona Gazette in Phoenix. We ran
around" with him in Phoenix and Flagstaff when
both were in our early twenties.
We have watched with much interest Mr.. Thorn.
tons rise to great heights in the grocery world OF
Arizona and in our opinion there is not man in the
entire state who knows more about the grocery bust
ness than does Mr.. Thornton.
We have been in his great Consumers Market in
Tucson-saw the crowds there daily grasping at the
chance to take advantage of his many bargains and
we feel he going to meet with the same success
in his Nogales venture.
R. E. Thornton is one of The International pub
1shers closest friends and we can highly recommend
him to the people of Nogales a square-shooter,
man who will give the people run for their money,
and gentleman in the true sense of the word.
Again We say, Congratulations Mr. Thornton!
May you always prosper is our sincere wish.

Page, Writ G. Bowman
The fate Of the Chamber Of Commerce hangs in
the balance.
Largely through the efforts of Mr.. Bowman, the
Bettwy administration the past summer budgeted
1882 for publicity fund and it understood that
the entire fund would be used to help support the
Chamber of Commerce-the chamber was to get $125
month.
After paying the chamber for the months of
June, July, August and September, there will be a
balance in the publicity fund of $1O92 to run the
chamber until June next year.
It is the opinion of City Attorney Gordon Far
ley that $413 ($40O Of which is the amount of note
owing for the Mayors trip to Washington before he
took office on June l. and $13 interesf can be paid
out of the publicity fund.
If this $413 is paid and after payment of $125
month to the Chamber of Commerce to September l.
there will be left in the publicity fund or the Cham
Der Of Commerce) balance of only $679 to run the
chamber during the nine months beginning October

looks to like the business of this city 60

Confirmation Of Two Officials

After more than four months from the time he
was appointed chief of police by Mayor Bettwy on
June 1, Mark Tully was confirmed by the board OF
aldermen Monday night.
Confirmation came as no surprise to The Inter
national We had expected it for sometime For the
past two months we had felt that two of the alder
men, C. Tovrea and Louis Hudgin-who had or
iginally sided with Alderman E. S. Edmonson in op-
posing Tully would eventually either vote for con-
firmation or be absent from meeting when conflr-
nation finally came before the aldermen.
Aldermen Tovrea and Hudgin were absent Mon
day night so Tuy and also D. Higginbotham, street
superintendent were confirmed By the votes Of AL
dermen Harold C>Wayte, A. w. Lohn and c. D. Ran
kin, there was the necessary twothirds OF quorum
present.
Knowing that all alone he had no chance to pre-
vent confirmation Monday night Alderman E. S. Ed
monson asked that "a hour recess be taken until
Tuesday night so that Tovrea and Hudgin could be
present. His request was denied. Edmonson wanted
to place Tovrea and Hudgin on record and in that he
was right We, too would like to have seen those two
aldermen placed on record-whether they were for
or against the Tully and Higginbotham appointments
The vote Monday night occurred notwithstand-
ing there had been agreement, at the suggestion
of Alderman Tovrea, that vote would be taken on
confirmation until ALL members of the board of al
der1nen were present.

Power Plant
The Mayor named Louis Hudgin,
chairman; E. S. EdmonSon, A. w.
Lohn and Harold G. Wayte, as a
committee to take steps ito either
buy the local power plant or build
new one".
':We can get all the money we
want from the United States govern
ment to build new plant, the
Mayor said.
Attorney Thomas L. Hall, a spec
tator at the council meeting, in
formed the Mayor and aldermen
that they cannot go into the COM
mercial lighting business without a
certificate, "just like an individual
has to have. You can light your own
streets but you can't sell electricity
without certificate, said Mr.. Hall.
$4,000 Building
The Mayor said the WPA has re-
quested that it be sent an outline
of what "the city's going to do
with $4,000" toward construction
of a proposed municipal auditorium,
ETC., on the old Wylie property at
the bridge on Grand avenue. It was
brought out that the $4,000 would
be spent for labor, the city to use
as material that from an old ware
house said to have been recently
donated to the city.
The Mayor said that the American
Legion, Boy Scouts, Y. M. G. A. and
a library would be located in the
building. II have some information
on this project but am not going
to tell you about it at this time,
the Mayor informed the aldermen.

Keith Winners
In Clues
Contest

The all important point in the
Let En- Have 1t" observation
test as to details In the published
drawing was overlooked by the
vast majority of those several
hundred replies received by The
Times and RKO Keith's. That
fact is that the victim as stretched
on the floor was a woman, this
being clearly indicated by her
features, the size of her hands
and feet, the bobbed hair under
the cap and miscellaneous fem,
mime articles scattered about the
room, though the figure was in
mems clothes.
The contest conducted by The
Times and RKO Keith's at which
theater the picture, Let En-
Have It," is now showing with
Richard Arlen, Virginia Bruce,

situation in the film as pic
tured in this contest-the Govern
ment agents are examining the
room and but few recognized
the identifying marks that the
victim was a woman.
