Reich Renews Gas Pledge.
Lord Halifax announced in the
House of Lords that the German
government had notified Great
Britain it would observe for the
duration of the war the prohibitions
concerning the use of poisonous
gases laid down in the Geneva
protocol of June, 1925.
He said, however, that Germany
reserved full liberty of action in
the event an enemy power in
fringed provisions of the protocol.
The foreign secretary recalled
that Hitler said in his reply to
President Roosevelt's recent appeal
that there should be no bombing of
unfortified towns.
Meanwhile, Great Britain moved
cautiously toward releasing the full
power of her war machine over Ger
many.
A British announcement was made
that Germany may attempt to
establish submarine and air bases on
the coasts of South and Central
American countries"
The ministry of information said:
The government has instructed
his majesty's representatives in
those countries to invite the gov
ernments to which they are accred-
tied to take all steps which may be
necessary to prevent any breaches
of their neutrality"
Times Cautious.
The Times, which ofen reflects
government opinion, comments
that the British government had
received no official confirmation of
any German intention to bomb un-
defended cities, but added:
AT any rate, whether the proc
lamation is authentic or not the
| German airmen have not yet been
set to this work of murder. Until
the proposed atrocities are actually
committed the British government
with the French will certainly not
depart from the assurance that both

Other newspapers featured promi-
nently a statement that up to Sep
tember German planes had bombed
80 cities and open towns in Poland
killing more than $500 civilians in
cluding women and children.
Biddle Report Headlined.
The papers also gave prominent
place to United States Ambassador
Anthony J. Drexel Biddle's report
from Poland that Germans were
| bombing without regard to the safe
ty of civilians.
The Telegraph wrote, The very
suggestion that British forces might
one day be compelled to bomb open
towns is enough to make soldier and
civilian alike recoil; but Lord Hall
fax was right to point out that a
policy of restraint is based on re-
ciprocation. A healthy fear of re-
prisals and their effect on the morale
of the German population may well
prove deterrent where considera-
tions of humanity have failed"
No one doubted that if England
retaliated London and Paris, still
unbombed, would receive a German
counter attack. Yet blackout re-
strictions which plunged the city
into complete darkness with the out

Lieu Auto Tax
Lowers Registry
Payments Here !.
(By. UNITED PRESS

PHOENIX, Dec. 8-Arizona's new
lieu automobile tax goes into gen
eral effect with the beginning of
1910 registration next month and
brings with it an increase in auto
taxes in three of the states. largest
cities and decreases in the other
nine.
The lieu tax, which calls for
flat 81 per $1OO evaluation levy in
incorporated areas and So in unin-
corporated areas, will force resi-
dents of Bisbee, Douglas and Flag
staff to pay higher taxes on their
machines but will mean lower rates
for citizens Of Globe, Holbrook,
Miami, Nogales, Phoenix, Prescott,
Tucson and Winslow and Yuma
Under the old method of COM
putting the auto tax-the sum total
of the state, county and school dis
trict levies-Flagstaff owners would
have paid 1910 tax of $2.74 per
~AVO CFoAunCAO1A, OAoUCC OWI1CIO pA.tO
and Douglas residents $3.41 instead
of the lieu tax's flat 81 levy.
In the other nine cities involved
in a United Press survey, the flat
81 rate represents savings, and large
ones in some instances.
The biggest savings come in Phoe-
nix, where the old rate would have
totaled $715 per $100 evaluation;
in Globe, where it would have been
$3.50; in Nogales, where it would
have totaled $500; and in Yuma,
where it would have amounted to
$5.75 instead of the 81 as under the
lieu tax.
For auto owners in Prescott, the
lieu tax of 81 means a savings of
seven cents per $100, and in Tucson
OF three cents over the old rate.
In Miami, the 81 lieu tax will be
81 cents lower than would have the
old rate; in Holbrook, 81 cents low
er and in Winslow, $1.1O lower.
The average auto tax in the II
cities under the old system would
have been $4.72, or 72 cents higher
than the lieu tax

$4,000 Loans Made
By Arizona Banks;
5000 Renewals

NEW YORK, Dec. 8-Countering
assertions that banks are not lend
ing, the American Bankers Associa-
ton published today the results of
a survey of bank lending activities
in Arizona, estimating that the
banks of the state made $4,000 new
loans totaling $50, 900 900 during the
first six months of 1899 and renewed
5000 outstanding loans aggregating
$4,000, ,000
The survey also indicated that less
than half the "open lines of credit
maintained on the books of banks
for regular established business bor-
rowers is in use by such borrowers.
These figures are based on reports
from commercial banks, or 60 per
cent of the banks in the state hold
ing membership in the ABA, and
allowance is made for concentration
of lending activities in the larger
cities of the state.
The banks replying to the asso-
ciation's questionnaires reported
that they made 26,125 new loans
totaling $21, ,700,371 between January
l and June 80, that they renewed
7,056 outstanding loans aggregating
$40, 149 ,042, and that they made GAS
new mortgage loans to home and
other real estate owners totaling
$2,O76, ,503.
The average number Of new loans
per bank was 1908 and the average
new loan was 1891.
The average number of renewals
per bank was 784 and the average
renewal was for 81 ,438.
The average new mortgage loan
was for $3,219 and the average num-
ber of new mortgage loans per bank
was 72.
In addition to making loans on
individual applications, one of the
banks of the state maintains what
are known as "open lines of cred
it, available at all times to regular
established business borrowers. This
bank reported open lines of credit
on it's books in the amount of $2,-
232, 100. However, only $1,003, $50. or
"a per cent of this credit, was being
used by borrowers on June 30.

Efforts were being made today

Attorneys for Bisbee and Douglas
school districts, whose suit attack
ing the validity of the tax was dis
missed by Superior Court Judge
John Wilson Ross, announced they
would attempt to file briefs immedi-

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
PHOENIX, Dec. 8-UP)-A con-
troversy between the University OF
Arizona and the State Teachers
College at Tempe over scheduling a
1910 football game today threatened
to split the state into two rival fac
tions.
Traces of the battle extend back to
1887 when the University dropped
Tempe from its schedule after the
Wildcats had administered their
yearly thrashing to the state col
lege team.
University officials announced
that a "de-emphasization" program
now was underway at Tucson and
that only nine games would be
scheduled next year. And, they add
ed, the schedule was filled with
Centenary college, traditional U.
opponent, the final team to sign
on the dotted line.
That left the Bulldog fanatics out
in the cold. Cries of politics
"fraidy-cat' discrimination" and
superior attitude cropped up on
both sides. Graduates and partisans
of both schools organized alumni
association" for the express pur-
pose of aiding the cause of either
the U. or Tempe.
Latest word from harassed Tue
son officials was to the effect that
a place probably would be found
for the Bulldogs on the 1941 sched-
ule.
But the dispute, apparently, is
far away as ever from being settled.

has appropriated 5000, 900 to finance
the celebration. Of this amount
Arizona will get $4,000 to build an
international museum at the point
where Coronado crossed the boun-
Diary from Mexico into Arizona, near
Nogales. About $4,000 will be ex-
pended to finance three pageants,
depicting the various phases OF
the expedition of the early Spanish
explorers, at Nogales, Yuma and
Grand Canyon.
At Hawaikuh, N. M, just across
the Arizona border, seven miles

ron to the south rim of the Can
yon.
Mr.. Weaver and party will ar
rive at the rim August II. At
point selected by DR.. Harold G.
Bryant superintendent of Grand
Canyon National park, to be named

ty and the flag of old Spain will be
planted.
The party will travel 240 miles
over desert country to reach the
Canyon brink. The cattle and sheep
will be taken along to provide food.
It is estimated that rental of horses
for the exposition will cost $4,000; /
cost of cattle, $1,000; cost of sheep,
5000; feed for horses $4,000; 1900
horseshoes will be used enroute!
riders will cost $1,4OO; transporta-
