The Trend To The CITY

FOR years. socially-mnded people have been be-
moaning the trend of the human race toward the
big cities and away from the country and the smaH
towns. Now, however, Government statisticians have
figured that there is decided movement of popula-
ton away from the cities and back to the country
The automobile is principally responsible for this
It is possible for people to live in rural regions and
work in the big towns and there is growing desire
to get away from the noise of the cities and to live IN
smaller and quieter country places.
Most people have an idea that country life is the
normal life of humanity, and that there is something
modern and unnatural in cityife exact opposite is
true, we are told by the anthropoigists who spend
their lives digging into the history of the human
race Primitive man lived in cities, big cities as ne
could build Life anywhere else was too dangerous.
Man is not only gregarious animal fond of the So
ciety of his kind but very early in his development
he learned that the open spaces full OF dangers
There is nothing to be concerned about in the
growth of towns Probably the largest cities will not
pet much larger Indeed the largest of ALL the Island
of Manhattan is losing population There are as many
people as ever if not more, who go to New York put
who sleep in of the outlying boroughs OF the CITY,
or in adjacent counties or even in other states
The steam engine is responsible for the big mod
ern cities When largescale factory industries were
started power could not be transmitted farther than
the length of a belt. Now electric power is available
everywhere and the tendency is to build factories
near where the people live, instead of making them
move to the factory town.

Auto Plates
To Be Placed
On Sale Dec. |

PHOENIX, Nov. 18-Efforts are
being made to open registration OF
motor vehicles on or about De-
cember for Arizona motor vehicle
owners, it was announced today by
Vernon G.. Davis, superintendent
of the motor vehicle divifio
The statutes of Arizona require
that every motor vehicle, trailer and
semi-trailer must be properly regis
tered, according to Mr.. Davis. If
the vehicle is owned by resident
of this state, it must be regit tered
in this state and as soon ae a per-
son becomes a resident of Arizona
must change to this states regis
tration. If a car is owned by a
resident of this state, such as
tourists or persons passing through
the state, proper registration in any
other state or country is sufficient,
unless the vehicle carries property
other than the owners personal eff
fects, or if it carries pay paSsen-
gers, in which case the car must
be registered in Arizona.
In this state and in most other
states the legal use of 1888 num-
ber plates expires December 81.
Each person in this state is re-
quired to apply for 1889 registra-
ton by January l. If registration
for 1889 is not procured prior to
February l., county assessors who
issue plates on presentation of title
to the vehicle must, under manda-
tory provisions of the statutes
double the registration fees. This
applies even though the vehicle was
not used after December 81

The Royal Visit

THERE is something gratifying to American pride
IN the announcement that King George and Queen
Elizabeth of England to visit the United States
and call at the White House next Spring
1t will be the first time that reignng monarch Of
the British Empire has ever visited America. Per-
haps the idea of royal visitors had occurred couple
hundred years ago. say, might still be subjects of
the British crown.
At any rate, there is strong and definite tie be-
tween this country and the nation of which most of
the United States once owed allegiance and we
ought to be glad to show King George vi what
great country have built by our own unaided eff
forts since we broke away from the control of his
royal great-great- great grandfather, George ILL.,
Z AS We understand it, position of the King of Eng
land and Scotland and Emperor of Britain is that
of symbol rather than ruler.
He is figurehead, but rather gorgeous figure
head. He symbolizes the greatest democracy in the
world, nation which in many respects is much more
democratic than our own The nearest thing we have
in America to the King is the fgurative cartoon of
Uncle Sam, who stands for the American spirit as
the King does for the spirit of Britain
There has been some silly talk from Washington
about the proper etiquette to be observed by the Pres
ident and his wife when the King and Queen visit
them. Should Mrs Roosevelt curtsy to the Queen?
That sounds like tommyrot
If there is any question of equality the balance is
in the favor of the President and his wife since the
President is more powerful ruler But this is not
political visit.
The royal visit to Washington is visit bv one
gentleman and his wife to another gentleman and
his wife, and the proper etiquette is what is proper
when one gentleman calls at another gentleman's
house.

Disasters Strike Al

Red Cross Aids 100000
Persons Following
Catastrophes

That the past year has not been
an easy one for the American Red
Cross is shown ia a recent report
listing disasters necessitating Red,
Cross relief throughout the United
States during the past twelve
months.
The report reveals that 1923 domes>
tic disasters called for Red Cross aid
in 247 counties of Al states, and that.
assistance was given to 100000 per-
sons who were disaster victims.
"That this has been very active
wear is obvious when one compares
this years operations with the aver
age of 90 disasters requiring Red
Cross aid annually for the past 10
years." Chairman Norman H. Davis.
said in commenting on the Red
Cross Disaster Relief Service report
These catastrophes included
cloudbursts, cyclones, epidemics~
fires, floods, forest fires, hailstormss
mine explosions, school bus acci--
dclt. q shipwreck, tornadoes, ty-
phoons, and wind storms.
Disaster relief was the first hui
manitarian work of the American
Red Cross after it's organization in
1881" Mr.. Davis said. In the en-
suing 81 years the flag of the Red
Cross has llown upon every scene OF
major disaster in the United States
The Red Cross has carried relief

to more than 1900 scenes of dis
aster at home and abroad, and has
expended over $140,000,O00 contrib
uted by the American public in thiS
work of mercy"
The Red Cross policies Of relief,
the national chairman pointed OUT.
have been established over period
of years through actual experience
Of it's workers in the field. Relief is
given on tho basis of need OF suffer-
ers-not of losses. Loans, he pointed
out, are never made, but relief Is a
gift from the Red Cross in the name
of its members and contributors to
its work.
"It would not be possible Tor the
Red Cross to carry out such wide
spread relief activities without the
help of thousands of volunteer work.
ers," Mr.. Davis said. volunteers
are the mainstay of the organiza-
ton. and in the past years work
assistance from many cooperating
agencies has made it possible for us
to answer the many calls for help"
While relief was being given to
victims of natural catastrophes, the
Red Cross was not unmindful OF the
necessity for preparedness plans to
meet emergencies that may arise in
any American community. Red
Cross chapters in hundreds Of coun-
ties have organized disaster pre-
paredness committees charged with
responsibility to map relief plans in
advance of need, and to organize re-
sources of communities to prevent
duplication of effort and waste of
materials when calls for help are
received.
These plans are proving especial
ly advantageous in localities subject
to frequent floods, tornadoes, or hur-
ricanes, and actual tests of such
planning have demonstrated the ne
cessity for such measures.
"The administration of such relief
for disaster victims is made possible
by annual memberships of millions
of Americans in all walks of life."
Mr.. Davis pointed out. "The extent
of Red Cross aid to such sufferers
is entirely dependent upon unself1sh
sharing on the part of all of US"
